Chapter 27 The Master Has You in His Heart
Sun, Sun...
Zhu Xuntao suppressed the anger on her face and became calm:
"You wish you didn't have a daughter like me. I'm afraid that every time I call you mother, it hurts your heart."
"In order to make you feel more comfortable, I can cooperate without calling you mother."
"You, you..."
Madam Sun pointed at Zhu Xuntao with a trembling finger,
"You are disobedient and unfilial. If the people in the Marquis' Mansion knew that you were such a beast who disrespected your biological mother, would they still be willing to marry you?"
Zhu Xuntao looked nonchalant:
"You can go and try. You can tell the people in the Marquis' Mansion about what happened today, I won't stop you."
"If the people in the Marquis' Mansion regret it and go to the palace to ask for permission, I promise to accept it happily."
"Don't you understand until now? This marriage was never a matter of whether I want it or not. Instead of showing off your power in front of me, you might as well go to the Marquis' Mansion and show some strength." "
Although soft persimmons are easy to pinch, it's useless to pinch them, understand?"
She always felt that her stepmother and Zhu Yingyan were playing tricks on her, which was simply a waste of time.
She accepted the broken engagement, but she couldn't let these two people hurt a hair on her head.
"Humph."
Madam Sun snorted coldly.
Madam Sun knew the truth of what Zhu Xuntao said.
But as Zhu Xuntao said, is the Marquis' Mansion a stone?
It's a piece of steel!
If Madam Sun had the ability to communicate directly with the people in the Marquis' Mansion, she would not want to even look at Zhu Xuntao.
Similarly, at the Marquis' Mansion, Madam Sun had no choice but to stare at Zhu Xuntao.
Compared to the Marquis' Mansion, Zhu Xuntao is much easier to deal with.
This was what Madam Sun thought before today, but now, Madam Sun doesn't think so anymore.
Seeing Zhu Xuntao's eyes, which seemed to be as cold and emotionless as hers, Madam Sun's heart trembled:
"You..."
"What?" Zhu Xuntao gave a confused expression, "What's wrong with me?"
The more indifferent Zhu Xuntao acted, the more Madam Sun realized that she was getting more and more flustered.
Madam Sun left a sentence "You wait" and fled.
Qiuyue, who had gone back, looked at Madam Sun's panicked back as she left, full of doubts:
"Second Miss, did you scare Madam?"
"How is that possible?"
Zhu Xuntao denied,
"I am the most obedient child in the mansion, how could I scare my mother."
"That's true."
No one knew the relationship between Zhu Xuntao and Madam Sun better than Qiuyue.
"Only Madam and the eldest lady can bully you, the second lady, how dare you scare Madam, it was just a stupid thing for me to say."
"Have you bought the fresh grapes?"
Zhu Xuntao asked Qiuyue to pick up the cup thrown away by Madam Sun, and she went behind the screen to change into a clean dress.
Qiuyue picked up the broken pieces of the cup lovingly to avoid hurting Zhu Xuntao: "Yeah."
"Second Miss, this is the only complete set of teapots and cups in our yard. What should we do if one of them is broken?"
Speaking of this situation, Zhu Xuntao's mouth twitched, and she could not understand her biological mother more and more.
She is the only second legitimate child in the mansion, but the other three illegitimate children are treated better than her in the mansion.
The funniest thing is that the person in charge of the feeding is still her biological mother.
Her monthly salary and the share she enjoys are not as good as the other three illegitimate children.
Is her biological mother bullying her by doing this?
That is clearly slapping herself in the face!
She is so stupid, and every time she treats her harshly, her face shows the pleasure of revenge.
Zhu Xuntao rubbed her forehead. She was not willing to admit that she was born by such a stupid person.
Fortunately, her IQ was natural, not inherited, otherwise she would cry to death.
"It's okay."
Zhu Xuntao comforted Qiuyue who was about to cry.
Qiuyue sniffed:
"Second Miss, how can it be okay? What if Prince Xiao or Miss Xiao comes to see you in the mansion, it will be a loss of face for you!"
Even Qiuyue, a little girl, knew that if one of the porcelains was broken, Madam Sun would never replace Zhu Xuntao with a new one.
Unless Zhu Xuntao bought it with her own money.
The problem was that Zhu Xuntao had never received her monthly salary on time and in full.
Zhu Xuntao tapped Qiuyue's forehead:
"Don't worry, I said it's okay. It's easy to change a new one."
"Go find the housekeeper and tell him that the one I used is broken, and he will prepare the best for us."
"Housekeeper?" Going to the housekeeper without going through the madam, is that possible?
Zhu Xuntao pinched Qiuyue's face:
"Why, do you not believe me, Miss? You will know if it works if you try."
"Anyway, if you stand here and cry, it must be nothing."
"Okay." Qiuyue nodded, turned around and ran to find the housekeeper in the mansion.
In the whole Zhu Mansion, only Qiuyue, a little girl, was sincere to Zhu Xuntao.
In less than a cup of tea, Qiuyue, who had left with a tearful face, came back hopping like a little rabbit:
"Second Miss, you are so awesome. The housekeeper really agreed to change it for us, and said that he would change it to the best in the mansion."
Qiuyue had just finished speaking when a bunch of maids and servants appeared behind her. None of them came empty-handed, holding large and small piles of things, which were obviously worth a lot of silver.
Qiuyue ran to stand beside Zhu Xuntao, then stared at the group of people busy in and out of the house.
It seemed like in the blink of an eye, Zhu Xuntao's room was completely renewed.
Not only was the teapot covered with expensive cloisonné, but even the furnishings in the room were replaced with enamel.
Except for the heavy items such as tables, chairs and beds, all the curtains in the room were replaced with lustering and appropriate thickness of fabrics.
In short, after wearing it for so long, Zhu Xuntao smelled the strong smell of money in her room at a glance.
One word: expensive!
Only three people in the whole mansion have such treatment: the scumbag father, the biological mother, and Zhu Yingyan.
Wow, she has made it, becoming the fourth person in the mansion.
Before the imperial edict, the scumbag father hardly remembered that he had a daughter like her.
After the imperial edict, the scumbag father really wanted to raise her as a daughter.
As if to confirm Zhu Xuntao's guess, the housekeeper who had arranged everything personally went there:
"Second Miss, is there anything lacking in your yard? If there is, Second Miss, please tell me and I will take care of it."
"My Lord has a lot of work to do and can't handle the affairs of the mansion. I hope Second Miss can understand and don't take it to heart."
"The master has always praised Second Miss for being sensible and intelligent, and she will definitely have a bright future."
"Today, we are destined to be together, and the master is also happy for Second Miss..."
The housekeeper said a lot of things, and Zhu Xuntao certainly understood what he meant.
The scumbag father finally remembered to make up for it today.
Or, Zhu Xuntao was sure of this, so she let Qiuyue skip Madam Sun and go to the housekeeper.
Immediate effect!
