Eleventh Lady's expression changed drastically.

Grandma Lin said hurriedly: "Go and do your own thing, don't worry about me!"

Eleventh Lady was not polite to Grandma Lin and pulled Chang'an aside to talk.

"...Master Pang had diarrhea all day yesterday. As soon as we went to Xiumuyuan this morning, Master Pang asked the two young masters if they had put laxatives in the tea he drank. The two young masters asked Master Pang to produce evidence. Master Pang said that the two young masters had done something wrong and were still quibbling, and he would slap the two young masters' hands. We wanted to take their place, but it was not possible. I saw that the situation was not right, so I ran to find the madam." He added, "I asked Huang Xiaomao to find the Marquis!"

When she heard that Huang Xiaomao had gone to find Xu Lingyi, Shiyi Niang calmed down instead.

Although she had never met Master Pang, she could tell from the lessons he arranged for Jing'er that this Master Pang was a more down-to-earth person. Since Master Pang was sure that his diarrhea was related to Jing'er and Shen'er, he would definitely not be making a fuss. Moreover, after such an incident, he only punished him by spanking his hands... Master Pang should also be a more measured person.

It would be good to let Jing'er learn a lesson.

Eleventh Lady pondered and asked Chang'an: "What is going on?"

Changan's face flushed red, and he looked very uneasy: "I, I don't know what's going on!"

"Chang'an." Eleventh Lady looked at him seriously, "The Sixth Young Master is young and immature. When you, the people serving him, see him do something wrong, you should remind him in time. Do you want the Sixth Young Master to become a dandy boy?"

"No, no. I didn't." Chang'an said hastily, even more uneasy, "I really don't know. The Sixth Young Master always discusses things with the Seventh Young Master. He also tells Huang Xiaomao and Liu Erwu to do anything." As he spoke, his voice gradually became a little lonely, "I only saw Huang Xiaomao and Liu Erwu catching mice or cockroaches these days... I think it's a bit strange!"

Rats? Cockroaches?

What is Jing'er catching these things for?

"Tell me about it in detail!" Eleventh Lady's face became a little serious.

Chang'an did not dare to hide anything and told everything he knew.

Even if Master Pang's diarrhea had nothing to do with Jing'er and Chen'er, they could not escape responsibility if a mouse crawled out of the quilt and there was a spider on the stool.

She always thought that the child was still young, but she didn't expect that Jing'er was so brave at all.

Eleventh Lady felt like there was a fire burning in her heart.

"Let's go," she said with a serious expression, "let's go take a look!

Chang'an responded, and just as they walked down the steps of the Chuihua Gate, they heard the Fifth Lady's voice behind them: "Fourth sister-in-law, wait for me!"

Eleventh Lady turned around and saw a servant beside Jin Ge'er accompanying the Fifth Lady towards this side.

"Madam, when I came to tell you the news, the people around the Seventh Young Master had already gone to tell the Fifth Madam!" Chang'an explained. The Fifth Madam had already lifted her skirt and walked up the hanging flower gate.

"Fourth sister-in-law is also going to Xiumuyuan, right?" She frowned tightly, her eyes flashing with anger, "I've said it before, Master Pang is too strict with the children. But you all don't think so. What do you think? Let me be right!" Fifth Madam couldn't help complaining, "During the Dragon Boat Festival, I went back to Hongdeng Hutong and planned to ask my father to tell Fifth Master that we should find a martial arts master for our son Chen when he is older in a few years. But our son Chen wants to learn from his brother and must practice martial arts with him. . My father saw that Chen Geer was young but ambitious, and he said that I was too soft-hearted and that a loving mother often spoils her child. He told me not to care about Chen Geer's affairs anymore. He also took Chen Geer to the training ground and told people to teach him horse stance, boxing, and archery. Seeing that Chen Geer's arrows were accurate, he actually sent an archery master to teach Chen Geer archery..." Her face was ashen, even uglier than Eleventh Lady, "Now, a master who teaches boxing and kung fu, when the young master made a mistake, didn't beat those sparring partners, but actually beat the young master. Does he still have respect for the inferior!"

The children might have really made a mistake. If Madam Wu rushed over like this, how could Master Pang still have dignity in the future? If a master has no dignity in front of his disciples, how can he convince his disciples, let alone learn from him seriously?

Eleventh Lady hurriedly stopped Fifth Madam: "The servant beside Jin'er has already gone to report to the Marquis. Fifth Sister-in-law, calm down first. After all, this involves the children's homework, and it would be inappropriate for us to go there like this!"

The Fifth Lady listened and resisted the urge to go to Xiumu Courtyard. She ordered Chen Ge'er's servant, "Go and see what's going on. If you hide anything, I'll skin you alive."

The servant replied "yes" timidly and trotted to Xiumuyuan.

Eleventh Lady was also very worried, but before she could say anything, Chang An said, "Madam, I'll go and take a look too!"

She nodded slightly.

Chang'an followed the servant and ran to Xiumuyuan.

Eleventh Lady persuaded the angry Fifth Lady to go to her place and rest for a while.

Standing here is no big deal.

The Fifth Lady thought about it and followed the Eleventh Lady to the main house.

Eleventh Lady invited her to sit on the kang near the window.

But she shook her head and said, "How can I sit still?" As she spoke, she walked back and forth in the room.

Eleventh Lady was also very anxious, so she could naturally understand her feelings.

The two of them sat there quietly, one of them sitting there quietly, while the other was spinning around like an ant on a hot pan, neither of them spoke, waiting for news from Xiumuyuan.

About half an hour later, Chang'an ran in.

Before he could open his mouth, Madam Wu had already rushed forward and asked, "How is it going? Did Master Pang succeed?"

"No!" Chang'an ignored the fact that he was still breathing heavily and said hurriedly, "The Marquis has passed away. The Sixth Young Master and the Seventh Young Master admitted that they had someone put the laxative in the tea..."

"Why did they put laxatives in Master Pang's tea?" Eleventh Lady looked stern and walked over.

"That time Master Pang punished the Sixth and Seventh Young Masters by making them squat in the sun..."

"What?" The Fifth Lady interrupted Chang'an's words with a sharp voice, "Master Pang actually made Jing'er and Shen'er squat in the sun? Why did he make two children squat in the sun? When did it happen? How come I didn't know about it?"

She spoke one sentence after another, like a string of cannonballs. Chang An was stunned for a moment, then he said carefully: "It was last time when the Sixth Young Master and the Seventh Young Master had a quarrel..."

His words made the Fifth Lady even more angry: "Children, it's inevitable that they quarrel. If they are punished to squat in the sun for quarreling, who in this world will dare to speak?" She said, and walked out, "No, I have to talk to the Marquis about this matter!"

Eleventh Lady was so angry that she couldn't speak for a long time.

Just because he was punished by Master Pang for quarreling, he had to release rats and cockroaches and even put laxatives in the tea to get back his revenge. What kind of bandit logic is this!

"Fifth brother's wife!" As a mother, she understood Fifth Madam's anger but could not agree with it. "Let's wait for the Marquis to come back!" She stopped Fifth Madam, "We can't interrupt when the Marquis is talking!"

"I don't care!" Madam Wu stamped her feet, "We can't just let this go!" But she still agreed with Eleventh Lady's opinion. She also thought that Master Pang was recommended by the eldest brother-in-law, and thought of Xu Lingkuan's refusal. She was afraid that everyone would not let this Pang go because of their face. She lifted the curtain and walked out: "No, I have to talk to my mother about this matter - we can't let them do this!"

If Master Pang was kicked out for this, would the next master dare to ask Jing'er and Chen'er to teach him as a disciple? Would Jing'er and Chen'er still be able to learn real skills?

Eleventh Lady followed immediately.

"Master Pang was wrong to make the two children squat in the sun!" The lady looked unhappy, but her tone was relatively calm. "But it was also wrong for the children to tease Master Pang. Since the beating didn't happen, I think we should just let it go. Talk to Master Pang privately in the future and ask him not to beat the children anymore!"

The attitude of the Dowager Lady made the Fifth Lady somewhat unhappy, but in front of the Dowager Lady, she could only bow her head and say "yes". The Dowager Lady then instructed Eleventh Lady, "Give some silver to Master Pang later. Tell him that it was the children's fault and ask him not to take it to heart. If the children do something wrong in the future, ask him to discipline them as usual." This was to deny the words of the Fifth Lady.

The fifth lady called out "Mom" unwillingly.

The lady gently waved her hand at her: "If jade is not polished, it will not become a useful object. Sometimes, we can't just let them do whatever they want." Then she told Eleventh Lady, "Go!"

It seems that he wants to keep the Fifth Lady to talk.

Eleventh Lady nodded and left. While preparing to reward Master Pang, she asked Chang'an to continue to inquire about the movements of Xiumu Courtyard.

"The Marquis reprimanded the two young masters and rewarded Master Pang with a sword!"

Eleventh Lady was slightly stunned: "Didn't I ask the two young masters to accompany Master Pang? Didn't I promise not to do it again?"

Changan shook his head.

Eleventh Lady thought about it, and asked Amber to take four silver ingots weighing five taels each and put them in her purse and go to Xiumuyuan.

But he ran into Xu Lingyi head-on.

He looked serious, and exuded a coldness that he himself was not aware of.

Jing'er and Chen'er followed behind Xu Lingyi, with their necks shrunk and heads drooped, looking like defeated roosters.

Seeing Shiyi Niang, Xu Lingyi immediately said, "Jin'er will be confined to his room for three days. He must not be interrupted in his studies. You urge him to squat, read, and copy Chinese characters in his room."

Upon hearing this, Jin Ge'er looked up and looked at Shiyi Niang with tears in his eyes. The corners of his mouth twitched. He looked like he wanted to call Shiyi Niang but didn't dare to. He looked so pitiful.

Eleventh Lady hardened her heart and replied "yes": "I will urge Jing'er to do his homework."

Xu Lingyi nodded and entered the yard.

Eleventh Lady deliberately didn't look at Jin Ge'er and followed Xu Lingyi into the yard.

Jing'er looked at his parents' backs with his lips tightly pursed.

Chen Ge'er said with some worry: "How about you come to my place? If my mother dares to ban me from going, I will tell my grandfather."

Jinger shook his head and said weakly: "I'd better go back to my own room!"

Thinking of his fourth uncle's temper just now, Chen Ge'er shuddered: "What would you do if your fourth uncle hit you?"

Mother was obviously angry. If Daddy hit him, she would definitely not protect him. I heard that being hit is very painful...

In a flash of lightning, Jing Ge'er suddenly thought of the lady: "Then, then I will go find my grandmother!"
