Chapter 132: Trembling with anger
Originally, a small thing fell down and no one cared.
It's just that the atmosphere here is too abnormal.
Nanny Li was furious, Qi was reluctant, Lin Zhi was wavering and hesitant, and Lin Yingxue was completely confused and had no idea what was happening.
Several emotions impact and interact with each other.
Therefore, even a small sound can cause ripples on the surface of the water that seems calm but actually has turbulent waves.
And these ripples are like a broken air bubble, gushing out from under the water.
When Qi saw what was on the ground, her eyes widened in fear. She quickly signaled to Madam Qi to put the thing away quickly.
Nanny Qi also saw it clearly and her face turned pale, but she was a step too slow.
Nanny Li picked up the jade pendant on the ground and her face suddenly turned pale.
"Lin Mansion, you are so bold, how dare you do such a thing? If you don't give me an explanation today, you can't leave."
It's really infuriating.
Lin Zhi went back on his word, Qi's attitude was arrogant, and Lin Yingxue did something so immoral today. This family is really playing with the Wu'an Marquis Mansion.
Look at this jade pendant, it is actually a mandarin duck jade pendant, and judging from the style, it is obvious that it was bought by a man as a gift for his beloved woman. In other words, the fiancée of the prince of Wu'an Marquis Mansion was secretly having an affair with another man?
And the material of this jade pendant is just cheap stuff worth one or two taels of silver.
And Lin Yingxue would rather accept this bitch than marry into a first-rank marquis's mansion?
How much anger must one have to be so despised?
Nanny Li was so angry that she was shaking all over.
"No, no, this matter cannot be tolerated by the Wu'an Marquis Mansion."
"If you can't explain it, I will ask the old lady to report this to His Majesty."
She wanted the emperor to make the decision for her Wu'an Marquisate.
This is too bullying. They don't take the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion seriously at all. If we don't teach them a lesson, do they really think they are easy to bully?
Although the Wu'an Marquisate was gradually declining, the legacy and achievements of their ancestors were still there. Even if things didn't work out, their old lady's military achievements could always be put to use, right? She just didn't believe that His Majesty would really just let it go.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
If the matter really gets to the emperor, he will be scolded at best, and severely punished for disrespect at worst. Lin Zhi's official career may even be hindered.
Qi's face turned pale. Even though she hated the people in Wu'an Marquis' Mansion, no matter how stupid she was, she knew that if she didn't handle the current situation well, her Lin Mansion would be finished.
Qi's eyes rolled around, and soon she brought out a few servants who served Lin Yingxue closely.
With a slap, these slaves were slapped hard on the face.
"How dare you! I asked you to serve the young lady, and this is how you serve her? Tell me, did you get this thing to harm the young lady?"
The servants were stunned. How could they have the guts to harm the young lady? They had no idea where the jade pendant came from.
Nanny Qi also reacted quickly. She cooperated with Qi and ordered the maids to block their mouths, then shouted and beat them to death with sticks.
As long as Lin Yingxue is not involved in this matter, it is not a bad idea to use a few servants to take the blame. This is also a common practice in the back house.
Nanny Li sneered.
"Madam Lin, Madam Qi, do you really think that you can get over this matter by finding a few scapegoats? Don't you underestimate our Wu'an Marquisate?"
Nanny Li also came from the back house. She had seen too many underworld tricks here. She had used this trick more than them.
Madam Qi panicked. "Madam Li, what are you talking about? Our Yingxue is innocent. She stays in the backyard all day. How could she have the opportunity to come into contact with other men? What's the matter, Madam? You don't trust the upbringing of my Lin family?"
Aunt Qi also followed up, "Yes, yes, our eldest daughter is also the most respectful of rules. Besides, wasn't it because of this that the old lady chose to marry our eldest daughter?"
Nanny Li laughed again.
"The most important rules? Then why don't we have a good chat about what rules you young ladies value most?"
Nanny Li spoke word by word, her anger growing.
She said that last month, her eldest son came to discuss the marriage with Lord Lin, but in the backyard he saw Mr. Xiao holding Miss Lin's hand tightly.
She said that the young master surnamed Xiao was still not satisfied and broke into the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion to threaten her son, saying that her son would not live long and would ruin Miss Lin's life. He even said that he was deeply in love with Miss Lin and advised her son to give up as soon as possible.
When Li Ma Ma said this, her face turned red with anger.
"These two things are definitely not fabricated by me, an old woman. They were heard and seen by Lord Lin himself."
The facts were as ironclad as iron and Qi could not deny them.
“Haha, is this what Madam Lin meant by trusting your upbringing?”
Bah, she has such shameless upbringing, yet she can still say it so confidently without feeling embarrassed.
She also said that at the last birthday banquet held by Old Madam Qi, she went to give gifts on the old lady's orders, but was ridiculed by the people in the Qi Mansion. Qi and Lin Yingxue just stood there and watched coldly, as if it had nothing to do with them.
Her Ji Mansion is the future in-laws of the Qi family, and also the future in-laws of Lin Yingxue. How could they stand there so coldly and turn a blind eye?
"It's really chilling."
This happened not too long ago, right? They wouldn't be crazy enough to forget it so quickly, right?
Or say.
"You think I'm just a servant in the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, so you treat me with contempt?"
"Oh, but don't you think about it? I represent our old lady, not myself."
It's okay to disrespect her, but it's absolutely not allowed to disrespect her old lady.
Nanny Li snorted coldly, "Do you think that my old lady has to personally deliver the gifts to the Qi Mansion's birthday banquet to show respect to her? But don't you see that she doesn't deserve it?"
Old Madam Qi did save the eldest princess, but that was just feeding her a few sips of milk.
If the eldest princess is to be treated with respect and honor by those who have fed her, then wouldn't all the wet nurses from the imperial palace be treated with respect and honor? And what if some of them have also fed the emperor? Wouldn't that bypass the empress dowager? Is there any law in this?
To put it bluntly, Madam Qi has no official rank or rank, so what qualifications does she have to ask her old lady to come to her house in person? Don't forget, her old lady was once a general and a meritorious official who commanded an army of 10,000.
She, Madam Qi, was nothing in front of her old lady. If it weren't for her marriage relationship with the Lin family, the old lady wouldn't even look at her. Only Qi and Lin Yingxue treated her as a person of importance.
Nanny Li scolded Qi and Lin Yingxue without any hesitation.
Qi's expression changed drastically. "You, you shut up."
