”What's going on?” Seeing the steaming hot dishes on the black lacquer square table, Jiang Wan also looked at Jasmine with a puzzled expression.
”I don't know either.” Jasmine scratched her head and said, ”Anyway, old granny Wang looks different today, so I'm not too sure what's different.”
”Ai, did Mama Han's son catch something with her?” Lilac guessed boldly, ”Maybe she wants to bribe us.”
The moment Lilac said this, the four of them burst out into laughter. At that moment, the second floor of the Pure Heart Pavilion was filled with cheers and laughter.
In the kitchen, the limping old woman trembled as she said to a black figure in the corner, ”Big …” Great Lord … Do you think this arrangement is satisfactory? ”
He could only nod condescendingly at Grandma Wang, saying, ”You must remember that every day, three meals is like this. If our master discovers that you still dare to mistreat Fourth Miss and her family, don't blame us for shaking out all the shameful things you've done in the dark.”
”I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare.” Old Lady Wang respectfully faced the black shadow and was on the verge of kneeling down and kowtowing.
They say that if you walk much at night, you will meet ghosts.
She had finished cleaning up the kitchen last night, and had left the Jiang family's small corner of the restaurant. When she was about to return home along the bluestone alley, a black cloth bag suddenly fell from the sky and wrapped around her head. Before she could even respond to cry for help, she was punched and kicked by someone, causing her to be covered in wounds today.
At that time, she had to lie on the ground and shout, ”Great man, spare me!”, wondering if they had found the wrong person.
One of the people attacking her asked, ”Are you the one who cooked at Sansui Lane, Mrs. Wang?”
When Lady Wang heard this, she knew that the other party had not found the wrong person. However, she didn't know why the other party wanted to find her for revenge, so she could only continue to lie on the ground and cry for mercy.
”Old Lady Wang, we don't need to remind you of all the bad things you've done in the past few years. Your grandfather already has a secret book in his possession. Don't blame us all for letting you bully the fourth lady of the Jiang family like you did today!” That person shouted with a threatening tone, causing Lady Wang's heart to tremble. However, she didn't know whether his words were true or false.
Who knew that that person would casually report two things? One of them was when she was at Zhenjiang Manor, which made her even more afraid to move.
”Sir, sir, what do you want me to do?” The old granny Wang laid on the ground without a care and started kowtowing.
”Let me tell you, calling out to the fourth lady of the Jiang Clan with good food and food every day. Only the world knows about this matter, otherwise …” ”Humph …”
Thinking back to last night when she said ”hmph”, Old Lady Wang couldn't help but shiver. But now, looking at this man in black who was two heads taller than her, she couldn't help but wonder how she had angered such a group of people, and what was the background of that Fourth Miss? How could she, who had always lived in the inner chamber, recognize this group of people?
”You did pretty well today. Remember, you have to do it every day!” The dark figure in the corner nodded, ”I will come by to check on whether you are lazy or not from time to time.”
After saying that, the black figure was about to leave, but Old Lady Wang held him back with a frightened expression. She practically kneeled down and begged him, ”Is every meal like this? Large... Sir, could it be that you're joking … The Fourth Miss' dinner today was enough for a normal family member to eat for a year. Every meal was like this … How could I have so much money! ”
”No money?” A fierce gaze swept over, scaring Grandma Wang to the point that she trembled once more.
Although Old Lady Wang was afraid, when she thought about how she had to post every meal like this, the amount of money she had saved up over the years was not enough for her to post.
