Chapter 284: A cheap thing that doesn't distinguish between high and low

Pei Shaorong had obviously told Madam Pei in advance that Xu Muhua would come to visit her today. When Xu Muhua was led by Pei Shaorong into the inner room of the main courtyard, Madam Pei had already sat up and tidied up a little.

Just looking at her still sitting on the bed, you can tell that she is seriously ill, otherwise she wouldn't entertain guests like this.

"Muhua is here, but Auntie is not feeling well, so I can't entertain her properly. Let Arong accompany you well."

Madam Pei's face was pale, and although her eyes were calm, she revealed a kind of fatigue that could not be concealed, and the sick air between her eyebrows was also visible to the naked eye.

"Aunt, Arong and I have such a good relationship, just like real sisters, why should we worry so much? I should have come to see you earlier."

"Child, you are thoughtful. Arong also told me that she went to Xiangguo Temple by herself that day, and it was you who left your own things to accompany her! When aunt recovers, I will invite you to come as a guest."

"Okay, aunt, take good care of yourself first. I think aunt is such a good person, even God will not be willing to make things difficult for her. Aunt will definitely get better in a few days!"

Whether it is true or false, nice words always make people happy.

Pei Shaorong saw that she made her mother happy in just a few words, and she became happy too.

Mother has been sick for a few days, and there is no sign of improvement. Naturally, her mood has been greatly affected.

In addition, those people in the mansion were always looking for trouble, so even the maid couldn't have a good rest. The atmosphere in the main courtyard was very depressing. Today was finally better.

But this good atmosphere didn't last long before it was ruined by an uninvited guest.

"Oh, it turns out that my sister has a little guest here! If I had known, I would have asked someone to prepare. After all, she is the eldest daughter of the Chengguo Mansion, and my sister is still sick. If we don't entertain her well, wouldn't it make our Pei Mansion a laughing stock if it gets out?"

Xu Muhua looked in the direction of the voice and twitched the corners of her mouth.

How come this concubine Zhao is dressed more eye-catchingly than a proper mistress? Not to mention wearing gold and silver, the color of her clothes is also very similar to the red color, which is just short of wearing bright red. The ambition is so obvious!

Xu Muhua wanted to sigh.

Were the people in the Pei Mansion being taken advantage of by this concubine Zhao? Otherwise, how could such a dignified Taifu Mansion allow a lowly concubine to do such a thing? I really couldn't figure out what the people in the Pei Mansion were thinking.

Couldn't Taifu Pei be more decisive and deal with Concubine Zhao? Even if she was killed, what could Old Madam Pei and Lord Pei do? Would they still be able to make a scene?

Such a good reputation was ruined by a concubine. Is it worth it?

Following closely behind Concubine Zhao was the maidservant beside Madam Pei, her face full of anger and grievance, "Madam, Miss, I, I can't stop Concubine Zhao."

Madam Pei's eyes fell on the maidservant's face, and when she saw the instructions on her face, her eyes darkened. The blood in her heart was surging, and her throat felt fishy and sweet, but she suppressed it. However, as a result, her originally pale face had a dark blue tint, which showed that she was furious.

Aunt Zhao certainly did not miss Mrs. Pei's dark blue face, and the smugness and happiness in her eyes almost overflowed.

Pei Shaorong was also shaking with anger.

Grandfather had been feeling a little unwell recently, and she did not want to bother him with the affairs of the main courtyard. And grandfather was a man after all, and it did not make sense for him to intervene in everything that happened in his son's room. If this were to get out, not only grandfather's reputation would be ruined, but her mother's reputation would also be ruined.

Aunt Zhao, this bitch, was so confident because she saw this point.

Grandfather can scold Dad but can't intervene in the affairs between the women in the backyard, but grandmother can think of ways to torture her mother in the backyard!

After getting angry at Madam Pei, Aunt Zhao seemed not to be satisfied, and her eyes fell on Xu Muhua, who had been sitting on the stool motionless since she saw her come in.

Thinking of the injustice her precious daughter had suffered at her hands before, Aunt Zhao forced a fake smile on her face and said in a sinister tone: "This eldest lady's friends are different from Zhen'er's. Zhen'er's friends are good in every aspect, especially in education and manners."

Xu Muhua was shocked, and looked at Aunt Zhao with a strange look, and finally his eyes fell on her head, staring at her.

Aunt Zhao was very calm at first, but after being stared at by her without blinking, she couldn't hold it anymore after a while and couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at?"

"I want to see what your head is made of, Aunt Zhao. Other people's heads are filled with brains, but Aunt Zhao's head is filled with feces!" Useless

and smelly!

Aunt Zhao's face suddenly changed and she was furious. Xu Muhua would not give her the opportunity to yell.

She was a guest, and there was no place in the whole Dayong where a concubine would humiliate a guest! Not to mention the dignified Taifu Mansion! Even if she beat Aunt Zhao today, Aunt Zhao would

be beaten in vain! If the people from the Pei Mansion have the nerve to go to the Chengguo Mansion to seek justice, then go ahead and see who will be the object of ridicule in the whole capital in the end!

"How dare you!"

Xu Muhua stood up suddenly, glared at Aunt Zhao, and said in a stern voice: "In terms of the status of the two mansions, the Chengguo Mansion is higher than the Pei Mansion. In terms of our identities, I am the eldest daughter of the Chengguo Mansion, a legitimate daughter in the family tree! And you are just a lowly concubine, yet you dare to point fingers in front of me, jumping up and down, without distinguishing between superiors and subordinates!"

"I have always heard that the rules of the Pei Mansion are different from others. Today I see that it is true! If all the women in the Dayong Mansion are like you, wouldn't it be a mess! If the concubines in the harem are so unruly and don't care about principles and ethics, then can everyone covet the throne of the Empress? Can everyone climb over the Empress's head and act arrogantly?"

"I thought you would sincerely repent after the palace sent someone to reprimand you last year. I didn't expect that you would become even worse! It seems that you don't take the Empress into your eyes!"

Xu Muhua said sinisterly, "The Seventh Princess and the Eighth Prince called me to the palace to play with them again. When I get to the palace, I will have to tell you about the ridiculous things happening in the backyard of the Pei Mansion!"

"You dare!"

Aunt Zhao shouted fiercely, but her eyes kept flashing and her face was filled with panic.

Xu Muhua ignored her and shouted at the maids in Madam Pei's room: "Are you all stupid? Seeing a lowly concubine bullying the mistress, why don't you beat her out? Are you waiting for God to send a thunderbolt to kill this lowly thing who doesn't know the difference between high and low?"

The maids in the room seemed to react and were about to drag Aunt Zhao out.

Aunt Zhao was so angry at what Xu Muhua said that her lips trembled, and she pointed at her with her mouth opening and closing. She was obviously furious and wanted to vent her anger, but she couldn't say a word!
