Chapter 80 I Bullied Your Cousin and Made Her Cry
Yan Shuyun accepted Shen Wangshu’s invitation smoothly, and she couldn’t really chase him away, so she had to ask someone to add another pair of bowls and chopsticks.
Yingying took a look at the porridge and side dishes on the table and couldn't help but said, "Does the general's wife eat these bland dishes all day long?" Could it be that they deliberately served these dishes because they saw that their girls were coming?
Mei Xue rolled her eyes: "Two patients should eat light food. Eating a lot of fish and meat will not nourish the weak. Don't you know?"
Tao Hong played the good guy on the side: "Also, the porridge in the small kitchen is shredded chicken and seasonal vegetables. Although it looks light, it tastes very good. The general is also comfortable to use it on a daily basis. Doesn't Miss Yan like it?"
Since the general also liked the porridge, Yingying certainly couldn't complain about it and could only shut her mouth in frustration.
After finishing their awkward breakfast, Shen Wangshu asked, "So why did Miss Yan come to look for me without even eating?"
"I'm new to the Duke's Mansion and I'm not familiar with it yet, so I'd like to ask my sister to take me around today. If there's anything I need to pay attention to, please tell me."
Shen Wangshu: “Except for Xuanji Courtyard, I don’t often go to other places, so I’m afraid I can’t provide any useful information to Miss Yan.”
This is true. In fact, apart from the fixed activity places in Xuanji Courtyard, she rarely hangs around other places. Yan Shuyun wanted to start with her, but she had chosen the wrong person.
"Madam is the master of Xuanji Courtyard, how could she not know this place?" The maid Yingying began to speak in a sarcastic tone again: "I'm afraid he is rejecting our girl, taking advantage of the fact that she is new here and the general is busy, so..."
"The master is talking, why do you, a servant, interrupt me again and again?" Shen Wangshu put down his chopsticks with a snap, frowned and shouted sternly: "Meixue, slap your mouth."
Yingying is Yan Shuyun's vicious substitute. She relies on the fact that her master calls the general cousin and is older than Shen Wangshu, thinking that she should be respectful to them, so she tests them again and again. She probably didn't expect that the general's wife, who looks kind and gentle, would change her face so suddenly. When the first slap landed on her face, she screamed and struggled subconsciously.
As a result, all the maids who were rarely seen in Xuanji Courtyard came out one by one, grabbing Yingying tightly with their arms like iron clamps. Mei Xue rolled up her sleeves, swung her arm and slapped her.
Yan Shuyun finally lost her composure and stood up suddenly - her master was still here, what was the difference between them slapping Yingying in the face and slapping themselves in the face? !
"Yingying is my maid. Isn't it not nice for my sister to hit her in front of me like this?" she said with a sullen face.
“Ah, so this is Miss Yan’s maid.” Shen Wangshu calmly drank a sip of tea: “I thought it was some ownerless dog barking wildly. It has been making noise all morning and giving me a headache.”
"you......!"
"Miss Yan doesn't know how to discipline her servants. I'm doing the hard work this time. If she keeps talking nonsense regardless of the occasion after she goes out, it will be a disgrace to Miss Yan."
Mei Xue looked at the pretty girl and was merciless when she started to hit her. After a while, Yingying's face was swollen, and clear slap marks were left on her face. She looked embarrassed and pitiful. In the end, she couldn't even cry, but just kept begging for mercy: "I know I was wrong... Madam, I know I was wrong... I will never talk nonsense again, I know I was wrong..."
Shen Wangshu gave a look and Mei Xue and several maids let go of Yingying. She immediately fell to the ground, lowered her head in fear and horror, and dared not look at the general's wife again.
......She forgot that how could someone who could live so comfortably in the Duke of Rong's Mansion be a soft persimmon? This woman just looked weak!
Yan Shuyun's personal maid Yingying was the only one, so she had to bite her lip and help the man up. She caught a glimpse of the tall figure outside the house, and the moment he came in, she choked with red eyes and said, "Sister, you are a little too much... We are new here, Yingying just doesn't want me to be wronged, how can you hit her like this."
Yingying's face was swollen from the beating, but her eyesight was good. She immediately followed her master's example and cried out in pain, "Girl..."
When Chen Ting returned home, he saw the master and servant hugging each other and crying in their room. He frowned and asked, "What happened again?"
"My husband, why did you come back so early today?" Shen Wangshu thought that these two people were brought by Chen Ting, so he didn't look happy with him: "Are you worried that I won't entertain your good cousin well?"
"......" Chen Ting carefully glanced at the young lady's frowning face, not daring to speak: "A Nian...are you still angry about last night?"
The master and servant hugged each other and cried on the ground: "..." Is this the point? The focus is on us!
"Why should I be angry?" Shen Wangshu didn't even look at him, closing his eyes and silently trying to calm down, and at the same time said bluntly: "Miss Yan, I am also an outsider in Duke Yu's Mansion. If you really want to get familiar with this place, let your cousin take you around in person."
Yan Shuyun was stunned. She didn't expect such a good thing to happen. She stopped crying immediately and looked at Chen Ting with hope: "Is it okay, cousin..."
After Shen Wangshu finished speaking, he stood up and left. Chen Ting hurriedly followed, answering Yan Shuyun’s question: “I’m not familiar with it either. Ask Chen Zhi to take you to play. She is the best at playing.”
"Madam, wait for me, I..."
The couple disappeared at the door together, and everyone in the room left in a flash. Xuanji Courtyard was so big that no matter how thick-skinned Yan Shuyun was, she couldn't follow them and get entangled.
There was no one around, and no one was watching the performance between the master and servant. Yingying stood up silently, covering her face. Seeing that her master's expression had become so dark that it was almost murderous, she could not help but shrink her neck.

Shen Wangshu walked out of the room quickly, passed through the corridor and rockery, and was held down in the pavilion by Chen Ting who had caught up with him.
The man was tall and had long legs, and one step of his was enough to take her several steps at a trot. The pavilion was surrounded by gauze curtains for shade, and the servants stood not far away and were very tactful not to go in and disturb her.
"Madam," Chen Ting had to pinch her waist and hold her tightly in his arms so that she wouldn't run away: "Don't be angry... What happened just now? Did you have a conflict with your cousin?"
Behind her was the pillar of the pavilion, in front of her was a tall and strong man, Shen Wangshu had no way to avoid it, her beautiful eyes were bright with anger: "Didn't you see what happened? Yan Shuyun was bullied by me and cried, so what, do you want to seek justice for her?"
Chen Ting was originally only staring at the beauty's rosy, cherry-red lips. He was stunned when he heard the words and laughed, "How can you be so powerful that you can even make someone cry?"
[You are obviously a softie who cries every night when I bully you, how can you be so tough? 】
Shen Wangshu: “…”
Damn Chen Ting, who are you looking down on?
