Yanyu didn't think it was a big deal that her reputation was ruined, but once Su Chenyu was involved, Yanyu couldn't just let it go: "Don't worry about the affairs of the master and the prince consort. I didn't take this hairpin, and I won't acknowledge it!"
Yao was furious at Yanyu's words: "Yanyu, don't think that I won't punish you just because you are my master's maid! Today, I will teach you a lesson on my behalf. Come on, drag Yanyu away and lock her up in the woodshed."
"I am the master's father, how dare you attack me without permission?"
If it were in the past, Yao would naturally not dare to do it, but today she caught Yanyu's mistake, so she was not afraid even if Su Chenyu was here.
"A servant who dares to steal his master's things dares to show off here..."
Before Yao could finish her words, she was interrupted by Su Chenyu: "I just heard that someone wants to teach Yanyu a lesson for me?"
Su Chenyu and Baili Yanqing appeared behind Yao. Seeing the sudden appearance of the two, Yao was a little panicked, but thinking that Yanyu was at fault today, she straightened her back and asked, "Master and Prince Consort, are you strolling in the back garden?"
"If we don't come to the back garden to enjoy the scenery, what else could we do?" Su Chenyu asked back.
Yao was stunned by the question. The next second, she felt annoyed. It was clearly the maidservant beside Su Chenyu who made the mistake, so why should she feel guilty?
"Master, if you have time to enjoy the flowers here, you should first train the servants around you."
"What does this mean, Madam?"
"This Yanyu stole my sister's beloved golden hairpin. This servant committed theft, which is a serious crime."
Su Chenyu did not respond to what Yao said, but asked her, "Madam, do you still remember Yanyu's identity?"
Yao was a little confused: "The maidservant beside you."
"So you know that Yanyu is my master's maid. She is a member of the palace and it is not your place to manage her. Even if she made a mistake, it is not your turn to teach her a lesson on my behalf! Who do you think you are to dare to say such unauthorized words?"
Su Chenyu's aura of majesty without even getting angry instantly left Yao speechless.
Yao Tingzhi was still trying to smooth things over: "Master, Minzhi had no intention of being disrespectful. She was just anxious to find the hairpin for me. I forgot that I had already given the hairpin to Miss Yanyu, so I caused this misunderstanding."
After witnessing Su Chenyu's rage, Yao Tingzhi was secretly shocked. This mistress really didn't follow the usual path: "Prince consort, Minzhi is your aunt anyway, you should persuade the mistress not to get angry anymore, it's not good for your health."
Baili Yanqing glanced at the golden hairpin lying on the ground calmly: "I thought it was some treasure, but it turned out to be just a golden hairpin."
As he spoke, Baili Yanqing looked at Su Chenyu again: "I remember that the things you usually rewarded Yanyu were much more valuable than this golden hairpin. When did Yanyu's vision become so bad?"
Su Chenyu was always generous to those around her, especially those she trusted, and the gifts she gave were even more valuable. To be honest, such a gold-gilded hairpin really couldn't catch Yanyu's eye.
Listening to Baili Yanqing's words, even the smile on Yao Tingzhi's face became a little stiff. Her beloved thing, in Baili Yanqing's mouth, was so unbearable.
Sure enough, even though the Yao family was wealthy, they could not compare to these dignitaries.
Thinking of this, Yao Tingzhi became even more determined!
