Chapter 60 V2 : Showing Her Migh (1/2)

Management Wu was the maidservant in charge of carrying out the punishment of servants within the Shi household. Nanny Liu immediately panicked and quickly forced a laugh, “Young Mistress, may I know the reason for calling Management Wu over?”

Sang Wan coldly glared at her without speaking. Seeing Sang Wan’s expression, Zhide scolded Nanny Liu, “How bold of you! Is there a need for Young Mistress to explain everything she wishes to do to you!”

Nanny Liu was at a loss for words and she quickly smiled, “Then, this old servant shall not bother Young Mistress. This old servant still has things to do so I shall leave first!”

“Stand still!” Sang Wan coldly voiced out.

“Does Young Mistress have something she wishes to instruct this old servant?” Nanny Liu was taken aback.

Sang Wan ignored her entirely and headed to Baoxia Hall which was not far away.

Zhide glared back at Nanny Liu and said to her, “What Young Mistress tells you to do, just do. Stop with the nonsense and hurry over now!” before hurrying to help Sang Wan over.

Nanny Liu had no choice and gently slapped her own mouth before following behind anxiously.

Not too long later, Management Wu arrived and stepped forward to give her greeting before seeking the issue.

Sang Wan looked towards Zhide and pouted her lips at her. “You tell Management Wu what happened just now.”

“Yes Young Mistress!” Zhide responded before describing the issue in full details.

Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.

Management Wu’s expression changed slightly and she gave a glimpse at Nanny Liu.

Management Wu could, at any moment, make Nanny Liu’s life turn miserable with just a sentence. Nanny Liu immediately panicked under pressure and kneeled on the floor to seek forgiveness while offering an explanation at the same time, “This old servant deserves to die, but it isn’t this old servant’s fault! It was Miss Gu who instructed this old servant to give Second Young Master Sang the five silvers to send him off. Miss Gu also said there was no need to tell Young Mistress——”

“Presumptuous!” Sang Wan coldly cut her off and sneered, “Useless woman, if you want to lie, then think first before saying! My family member came, and since he was here to see me, what did that have to do with Miss Gu? Miss Gu isn’t a foolish woman to give such a ridiculous instruction. And even if she did give you instructions, it would be to go to Ning Garden to inform me!”

“This old servant isn’t lying, this old servant is speaking the absolute truth!” Nanny Liu cried her grievance.

“You still don’t wish to admit your mistake?” Sang Wan raged and pointed at her, “I think you must have turned foolish due to your age! Should I invite Miss Gu over and have this settled with her present? En?”

The word “Okay” almost blurted out of Nanny Liu’s mouth but she quickly held it back in as her face turned pale in an instant.

She was not foolish to that degree. She knew that even if Gu Fangzi were to come, she would definitely not admit while mentioning for her to provide evidence to support her claim. And even if there were some evidence, offending Gu Fangzi would not do any good for her in the Shi household. Not only would she herself be unlucky, her entire family would also have to suffer alongside!

“Foolishness is on this old servant! Foolishness is on this old servant! This old servant must’ve been possessed and spoke those foolish words that shouldn’t be spoken! Young Mistress, please have mercy on this old servant! This old servant wouldn’t dare anymore, this old servant wouldn’t dare!” Nanny Liu slapped herself on the face, left and right, and cried for mercy.

Sang Wan frowned and signaled to Zhide.

Zhide’s face dimmed and she scolded, “Quiet! Yelling in front of Young Mistress and telling her what to do next! Does this household not follow the rules anymore!”

Nanny Liu’s shoulders immediately sank. She submitted entirely to Sang Wan and dared not utter another sound as she sent her pleas through her eyes.

Sang Wan might have a good temperament on a normal day, but that did not mean she did not have a temper. If someone were to infuriate her and she were to let them off easily, her days in the household would no longer be peaceful anymore! Keeping the expression she had, she coldly shot a glance at Management Wu.

Management Wu quickly rushed up to her and exclaimed, “It’s all this servant’s fault for not strictly disciplining the servants beneath sufficiently which caused them infuriate Young Mistress!”

Management Wu was close with Nanny Li and already knew that the household would soon be managed under Sang Wan. Seeing that Sang Wan showed no mercy and wishes to operate on Nanny Liu and have her be the sacrifical lamb to show the rest of the servants, Management Wu hoped to buy a favor and continued, “Nanny Liu is careless in the way she handled the matter, for offending and challenging the head, by the rules, she shall be punished with 20 beatings with the plank, have her salary be penalized for half a year, and be sent to the farm to do labor work!”

“Young Mistress!” Nanny Liu screamed in fear and lay weakly on the floor.

Sang Wan loosened her expression a little but she had no intentions of speaking for Nanny Liu. Instead, she asked indifferently, “How many people are there in her family? What are they working as in the household?”

Management Wu’s heart could not help but pound heavily. In her heart, she praised her Young Mistress for being exceedingly merciless!

Quickly, she replied, “There are four members including Nanny Liu herself. Other than she and her husband, they have a son and a daughter. I’ll simply have them all reunite at the farm!”

“Then so be it. All to follow according to the rules!” Without even giving a glance at Nanny Liu, Sang Wan nodded and threw that single sentence before leaving with Zhide.
