Chapter 78 (2/2)
”We all thought that first ive face to the branch house…”
Her voice trailed off, face turning pale as she clapped her hands over her mouth However, it was too late In a state of panic, she had answered too quickly and inadvertently blurted out the truth Su Nuan Nuan gave a sneering laugh and looked calently, ”You've heard it, have you not? What do you have to say to that?”
shi+ Yu Rou's face was the colour of pig's liver The way she was glaring at Granny Liu was almost like she was about to s the woman whole Su Nuan Nuan too looked down at Granny Liu, she snarled, ”So, you felt that by taking in Zhao Chai I don't give face to your branch house, and thus scheainst me Heh heh! Your plan isn't to kill my cat, is it? You just want to slap me, the first wife of the main house, in the face! If I don't punish you today the people of the mansion will think thatme in the face will incur no consequences Second lady, what do you say to this?”
”Sister-in-laords one out of hand like this, shi+ Yu Rou had no choice but to cut her losses She could only grit her teeth and snarled out each word, ”These servants… have clearly overstepped their bounds Sister-in-law, take them away, and punish them as you see fit”
”Madam, please don't do this, ah…”
Madaht Who doesn't kno fierce and vicious this first 's death when she was found pregnant with the et out alive oncefallen into this woman's hand? Fear addled her mind and she cried out desperately, ”Lady, ere only carrying out your orders, we…”
”Shut up” shi+ Yu Rou was so angry that her eyes turned red She had thought that once Granny Liu and the rest have passed through this trial, she would be able to devote some time to nurture more loyal servants by her side After all, it's not easy to find truly loyal servants Who would have thought that this old bat would crack at such a crucial moment If it was at all possible, shi+ Yu Rou really wanted to kicked this woman to death
”Sister-in-law, looks like this old servant really couldn't be relied upon First, daring to presuain favour and trying to create conflict between us sisters-in-law Right now, she even tries to frame me for her actions, this kind of crafty shameless slaves could not be tamed, we should just have her beaten to death with planks as a warning to others”
shi+ Yu Rou's killing intent was fairly stea off her body, her beautiful face had taken on a rather sinister cast
”Well, it does seemed unreasonable to beat someone to death over a cat Sister-in-law, please be at ease, the punishment will be in accordance to common sense”
For Su Nuan Nuan's benevolence to suddenly appear right now pissed shi+ Yu Rou so ht, curse you, now you want to act in according to common sense? Where was your common sense when you storm my place with a whole troupe of people? Where was your common sense when you needed it? Why is your co nohen it's the least needed? Are youwith me?
In the end, Su Nuan Nuan had the maids publicly siven ten smacks, and half a year's worth of their salary docked The two younger iven five smacks and had three h, the first wife announced to all and sundry, to teach the young ones a lesson on proper behaviour and moderation She also took the tioodhearted, to follow the rules of the court and that a hateful and vicious behaviour will only bring theular lecture reached the ears of varioushad been enjoying a spot of tea when the news reached her ears, causing her to spat out a mouthful of tea She wiped herfroiving out seroodhearted behaviour Had she truly repented, or was this a mere show for others? I really can't tell”
Olddominoes with her personalti only herself and Qiu Ling within the roo, ”Looks like this child really couldn't bear the slightest provocation Just a bit of teasing and she nearly lost her head Then again, by crushi+ng her opponent like this she had just ensured that everyone now understands her position”
Qiu Ling sneered, ”Well, she never could take the slightest provocation, ah Otherwise, how she would never pluck up the nerve to storm the branch lady's place? Only, I'd never have expect her to dole out such a light sentence, especially when she has the hed, ”Well, it was the right thing to do Tingye and his wife's behaviour had been getting quite disappointing this past two years As for those old h their behaviour had been quite despicable, we still can't kill them over a cat That would be literally overkill The punish them a little, they would at least behave themselves for a few months It's fine, they weren't the real source of the evil deed, which hy Nuan Nuan took it easy with theain, ”Old madam's words made sense However, this maid felt that first madam's action was too rash this ti a lot of co ine howover this htly, ”It's true that this whole draet, there have been many eyes on this cat for many days now It's been years since I've looked into matters within the inner court and it looked like the people there are starting to act in most unreasonable ways Everyone kno ulations, therefore they all tried to look pious on the surface and pretended to get along with each other even as they scheround Some schemes I knohile others escaped my notice
Most of the time I was just couldn't be bothered to really look into what they're doing It's not like they could do real harm In reality, the women of thiss in the heart really count, ah This is why I've never really said anything about Su Nuan Nuan's wilful behaviour All of you probably thought that I was in love with her cooking and ignored her behaviour How could this be the reason? I like her attitude, but I know froirl who keeps the rules in her hear This is why I like her”
