“Haha, hahaha…”
Wang laughed sarcastically, "I'm surprised you still thought of this!"
Aunt Xu ignored Wang's sarcasm about her not knowing how to manage the household and said with a smile, "I think Madam probably doesn't even have the strength to stand up right now, so please don't bother.
Please tell me where the things are and I will get them myself."
Wang curled her lips in disdain, "If I don't tell you, are you going to rob me like before?"
Aunt Xu touched her brow lightly, stretched out a finger in front of her face with a look of disapproval, and slowly shook it, "Madam, what you said is true. I am only serving you."
"Hmph!" Wang rolled her eyes in disgust, her head growing even more dizzy, and her tone began to quicken. "Madam Xu, if you treat me like this, aren't you afraid that my father and brothers from my mother's family will come to my rescue?"
Aunt Xu was obviously stunned for a moment, then she reacted and said with a smile: "Look at what you said, Madam. I am just doing things for the head of the family. I am afraid that Madam's father and brothers in her family do not have the right to speak against the dignified Duke!"
Wang's family background was good, but it was still far inferior to the Duke's Mansion. In fact, she married into a wealthy family.
Not to mention that Zhao Yiming, the real head of the family, has returned now, even when Zhao Ningsong was in charge, they could only bow their heads and fawn on him, and dared not say a word of objection.
Before Wang could say anything, Aunt Xu's words pierced her heart. "Last time when Madam's housekeeping power was taken away, your father and brother from your mother's family didn't come. This time when Madam was beaten to death by the master, your father and brother from your mother's family still didn't come. Do they really still care about you?"
She glanced toward the door again before saying, "I'm sure your most trusted Aunt Fu Yu has already been to your parents' home! How is it? Has anyone come to see you?"
When you were in your prime, they were running around very hard."
He openly and secretly ridiculed the Wang family as a group of people who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
Unfortunately, Wang was unable to refute it because it was the fact.
Nanny Zhang had indeed gone to the Wang family to ask for help, but unfortunately she didn't even get to see her father and brother, and was just sent away by a random housekeeper.
Not only this time, but also the last time her housekeeper power was taken away.
They ignored her request for support and only asked Fu Yu to tell her to be patient and coax Zhao Ningsong.
At that time, Zhao Ningsong was still the head of the Duke's Mansion. They didn't dare to offend him and could only endure it.
Now that Zhao Ningsong is no longer the head of the Duke's Mansion, they may think that he can no longer bring them benefits, so there is no need to waste time on him!
Or maybe they are afraid that Zhao Yiming will settle accounts with them in the future and implicate them, so they are busy drawing a clear line between themselves and him!
"Hehehe..." It turned out that she was abandoned.
Regardless of the fact that Aunt Xu was still here, Wang laughed at herself, and tears fell as she laughed.
It was only at this moment that she understood the origin of her marriage.
She once had a childhood sweetheart and a cousin who was a good match for her. Unfortunately, when the matchmaker came to propose marriage, she and her family were overwhelmed by the big pie offered by the Duke's Mansion. The family, who were so vain, never thought that such a good thing would happen to them.
Her vanity was satisfied, and she thought that it was her personal charm that impressed Zhao Ningsong. She was coaxed by her family and hurriedly broke up with her cousin.
Little did she know that a wealthy family nearby saw through Zhao Ningsong and was unwilling to marry their legitimate daughter to Zhao Ningsong, a bastard. He and her mother were too arrogant and looked down on the bastard's daughter, so in the end this "good thing" fell on her.
Her family background is pretty good, and she is the legitimate daughter, so her father and brother are vain and easy to manipulate.
Sure enough, after getting married, whenever I went to my parents' home for help, they always asked me to be patient and magnanimous but never showed up.
But when they are in glory, they run faster than anyone else.
She once thought that they were sincerely advising her for her own good, but she never thought that they just didn't want her to anger Zhao Ningsong and lose this cash cow.
Now that Zhao Ningsong is disabled, he doesn't even want to show his face.
With great effort, she moved her body upwards and wiped the tears from her eyes. Wang Shi tried her best to act like the dignified and respectable lady she used to be. "Even if I am not so good, I am still a lady. How can a concubine like you compare to me?"
Unfortunately, she looked so weak and pitiful at the moment that she had no authority at all as the mistress of the house in the past.
Aunt Xu did not have the slightest sympathy for her. There must be something hateful about a pitiful person, and Wang Shi had done a lot of bad things in her daily life.
"Since Madam is so stubborn and refuses to reveal the location of the things, I will have to do more work and order someone to look for them myself."
After that, he shouted at the door: "Come here, search for me."
All of a sudden, all the maids and old women rushed in. Chi Wei was afraid that they would not be able to come in, so he leaned against the door of the inner room and watched the beams of the house to prevent them from hiding things on the beams.
Wang watched the maids and servants rummaging through her room, her eyes bloodshot as she yelled at them, "Get out! You lowly creatures dare to enter my room! Be careful or I'll sell you all to brothels."
The maids and old women were stunned for a moment. Wang thought she had scared them and was about to feel proud, but she saw that the maids and old women's hands moved faster and more ruthlessly.
Originally, they were just searching for things, and they were careful not to mess up anything in the house.
But Wang's actions of adding fuel to the fire directly angered them.
They were well aware of Wang's petty and vindictive nature. Since they had offended her, they had to take back the things that controlled them at once.
Everything in the boxes and cabinets, whether it was clothes and bedding that he was afraid of getting dirty, or porcelain screens and other easily damaged items, was violently pulled out and thrown on the ground by him.
Even a pot of peony on the windowsill was not spared, and was directly picked up by a woman and thrown into the middle of the room.
The purple clay flowerpot suddenly shattered into pieces, the debris flew all over the room, the soil inside was scattered on the ground, and the flower was broken into two halves.
But this did not attract the attention of the maids and servants at all. They continued to throw things and smash things.
Soon, the room was in a mess. Wang's clothes, bedding, including underwear and bellybands in the wardrobe were all scattered on the ground. There were footprints everywhere from the maids and old women. Mixed in with them were fragments of various porcelain ornaments, and no one knew whether they were damaged.
Wang Shi, unable to yell at the servants, could only point her gun at Concubine Xu and said, "Bitch, make them stop now, or I won't let you go."
Aunt Xu walked up to her with a smile on her face, "Madam, are you planning on not letting me go and selling me to a brothel too?"
"Madam, madam, why don't you understand? It's no longer your turn to have the final say in this house."
"If you cooperate, you can live a few more peaceful days. If you don't, you will be the one who suffers!"
"Oh! I forgot to tell you, Madam. Now that you are no longer the mistress of this Duke's Mansion, your food, clothing, and daily expenses will inevitably be less affordable. Madam, you must curb your extravagant nature and be more frugal."
The implication was that she would never have these ruined things again unless she used her dowry to make up for it, and her dowry...
