Seeing Mei'er's reaction, Bai Nuo sneered, "What? You think it shouldn't be like this?"
Mei'er shuddered at the thought of Huang Haichuan's personality. Although he hadn't touched her yet, it wasn't because Huang Haichuan was unwilling, but because he didn't have time. In Huang Haichuan's backyard, apart from Madam Zheng, who wasn't afraid of him, all the other women were terrified of him.
Huang Haichuan was a man who would beat people at the drop of a hat. He had some bad habits that he couldn't vent on Madam Zheng, so he always took them out on the concubines. So when Mei'er heard Bai Nuo say that she wanted to talk to Huang Haichuan, Mei'er was instinctively scared. She didn't want to follow Huang Haichuan anymore, which was why she thought of following Hu Mingmei.
She originally thought that Hu Mingmei would definitely not make a fuss about this and would deal with it quietly. Moreover, she wasn't afraid that Hu Mingmei had called Bai Nuo over. No woman would not get angry or upset in this situation. As long as Hu Mingmei and Bai Nuo had a rift, she could take advantage of the situation.
She has to serve men everywhere she goes, so why doesn't she like a young, handsome, and rich man?
But why did Bai Nuo react this way?
Mei'er instinctively refused, "Isn't it unnecessary to trouble Second Master?"
"How dare you!" Granny Wang immediately cursed, "How dare you object to the decisions made by the Second Master and Madam?" After her outburst, Granny Wang demonstrated her efficient work skills and immediately said to Bai Nuo, "Madam, this servant will go and invite the Second Master over right away!"
Bai Nuo nodded, and Wang Mama left. After Wang Mama left, Bai Nuo looked at Mei'er, whose face was a little unnatural, and said, "Don't worry, I'll explain things to Second Uncle later and ask him not to blame you!"
Even if you're unwilling, why go to such extremes! Mei'er felt a surge of anger welling up in her heart. Just as she looked up to rage, she met Bai Nuo's half-smiling eyes. Instantly, she felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her heart, and a chill spread throughout her body.
Does she know what she wants to do?
Then she... Mei'er belatedly realized that Bai Nuo had been watching her cry and play the victim the whole time. From beginning to end, Bai Nuo believed Hu Mingmei and just wanted to see the monkey.
Mei'er was suddenly terrified and immediately said to Bai Nuo and Hu Mingmei, "I'm sorry, Second Master and Young Madam. I have offended you. I will leave the mansion now and never appear in front of you again."
"Wait!" Bai Nuo stopped her. Mei'er wanted to leave, but Bai Nuo didn't want her to leave so quickly. What did she mean by offending Hu Mingmei? Was saying sorry enough? In the future, if anyone tried to provoke Hu Mingmei and she found out, and she disagreed, would saying "I've offended you" be enough?
So what did she become?
Soft buns?
Squeeze it whenever you want?
"Let's wait until Second Uncle arrives. I want to ask him how he manages the backyard. How can just any Tom, Dick, or Harry be allowed into my study and offend me?" Hu Mingmei, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly spoke up. "Someone! Go and invite Second Uncle again!"
The servant who had just gone to fetch Bai Nuo was standing at the door of the study. After hearing Hu Mingmei's summons, the servant immediately came in, bringing another person with him. When Hu Mingmei saw the two of them enter, he pointed at Mei'er and said indifferently, "Tie her up for me!"
"Second Master!" Mei'er tried to rush forward again, but the two servants gave her no chance at all, grabbing her from both sides. Seeing that things had come to this, how could Mei'er be allowed to be tied up like this? She struggled immediately, but the two servants were both tall men, how could she move? The one who went to call Bai Nuo first struck Mei'er on the back of the neck with a palm, and then she lost consciousness and slowly fell to the ground.
Seeing that Mei'er had fainted, the other person went to get a rope and tied Mei'er up tightly.
Then, they went to invite Huang Haichuan.
"What do you want with me?" Huang Haichuan had originally intended to come, but when Granny Wang arrived at his courtyard, Huang Haichuan was already angry. Bai Nuo had emptied much of his courtyard, and he was very unhappy about it. Not only had she taken his things, but she had also driven away his concubines. Huang Haichuan was about to question Bai Nuo and Hu Mingmei about what was going on, and why they had interfered in the affairs of his backyard. Just as he was getting angry, Granny Wang arrived, and not only that, but a servant also came, saying that he needed to come over. So he came in a huff.
"Hu Mingmei!" Huang Haichuan roared, "Even if my elder brother and I weren't born of the same mother, the princess is still my legal mother, and I'm your second uncle. What kind of nonsense is this, taking all my things from my room? And where did you hide those women in my backyard? Your reach is far too long!"
Huang Haichuan stared straight at Hu Mingmei as soon as he entered, and then launched his attack. He didn't bother to look carefully at who was in the study, so he didn't notice Mei'er.
Hu Mingmei didn't take Huang Haichuan's anger seriously and explained calmly, "Recently, I've been sorting out the family accounts and found quite a few discrepancies. Some of them are related to my second uncle. When my second uncle went to stay in my grandfather's courtyard, I didn't ask him to make up for them, so I had to take them from his courtyard. If my second uncle has any questions, he can go to Lu Ying, and Lu Ying will explain it to you clearly!"
Huang Haichuan became even angrier upon hearing this, but Hu Mingmei did not give him a chance to speak. "I invited you here today to talk to you about your harem. Of your concubines, you only have one left. I'm returning it to you now!"
