After lunch, Jiang Ying thought that this "recognition as a relative" was almost coming to an end.
Who knew that the old lady still wouldn't let her go.
He called a few opera singers and insisted that Jiang Ying accompany him to watch the show.
Jiang Ying, “…”
What's so good about that? For someone like her who has seen so much and is tired of watching TV dramas...
Perhaps because she saw that Jiang Ying really couldn't sit still, the old lady only watched him briefly and then changed her way of taking Jiang Ying to visit the garden.
It felt like she was taking a day trip to the Duke's Mansion.
Little Yanzhi was the center of attention among the servants, and his silly second uncle followed him around happily, eating the nougat given by Jiang Ying and drooling over little Yanzhi.
The latter was a little disgusted and tried several times to reach out and pull the high-end handkerchief in the arms of his silly second uncle, but his hands were too short to reach it!
In the end, Siyu understood what he meant and finally reminded Yinzhi to remember to wipe Jiang Yuanchen's saliva...
At this moment, no one cared about where Jiang Yuanchen's personal maid Xuezhi had gone.
After walking around for a while, the old lady could no longer walk.
He smiled and waved his hands, "Ah, my legs and feet are not so good now. Let's sit down and rest for a while."
Yin Ping helped her up and joked, "This is the farthest the old lady has walked recently. Usually when Miss Jiang is not around, she would just want to stay in the small Buddhist temple all day long."
As for why this is the case, everyone knows it.
Ever since the eldest and second sons got into trouble, the old lady has been repenting every day and praying for the two sons.
However, not long after they sat down, they heard the maid crying.
There were also curses from the evil woman, "Little hoof, do you think we won't dare to deal with you just because the Madam is out?"
"I'll beat you to death! Humph, you dare to ask outsiders for help? I'll give you what I can do!"
"To tell you the truth, before the Madam left, she clearly instructed us to give you thirty lashes. Who told you to look down on the Second Young Master and let him come out to embarrass himself?"
"Don't you know that what Madam hates most right now is, first, the blind and decadent eldest son, and second, the foolish and idiotic second son?"
"Madam, I wish her children were only the clever and sweet-talking Third Young Master and the beautiful and intelligent First Young Lady!"
Brush—brush—brush!
Following the threats like those of a poisonous witch, the sound of a whip hitting flesh followed.
Xuezhi's skin was already torn and she deeply regretted leaving the old lady's yard. Her original intention was to get a thinner coat for the second young master because it was getting hot at noon...
But she was very unlucky to be targeted by Wang Pozi and Liu Pozi. The two did not dare to attack Doctor Jiang, so they took out all the anger they had suffered earlier on her!
"Wow..." Xuezhi felt hurt and wronged, and burst into tears.
In the pavilion.
When Jiang Yuanchen heard this, he suddenly raised his head and looked around, "Sister Xuezhi?"
He was originally feeding little Yanzhi some candy, but the latter disliked that it was the candy he had eaten before and shook his head to refuse. Now he had no time to feed him anymore and was so anxious that he was pacing around in the pavilion and even forgot to pick up the candy that fell in his hand.
The smile disappeared from his face, "Sister Xuezhi... don't cry..."
Everyone suddenly woke up, and Nanny Tang slapped her thigh, "Oh no, old lady, earlier in the garden, the two maids by your side got humiliated by us. I'm afraid they're so bold as to torture Xuezhi in private!"
Upon hearing this, the old lady's expression changed. "What? Private execution? Who gave them such courage?!"
"Go, have someone look for him. Even if they have to search the whole garden, bring him here!"
The crying was intermittent and I could only hear it was nearby, but I still had to find out exactly where it was.
And it is very likely that the two old women ran away after hearing the noise.
After a stick of incense, the people on the old lady's side were quite capable and caught the two old women red-handed.
At this time, Xuezhi had been beaten so hard that she was breathing in more than out.
Seeing his adopted second brother getting so anxious, Jiang Ying knew that Xuezhi must be nice to him on a daily basis.
There was no reason for such a good girl to die unjustly, so while no one was paying attention, he stuffed a piece of spiritual spring crystal into her mouth.
Save the little girl's life first.
Wang Pozi and Liu Pozi prostrated themselves at the old lady's feet, refusing to plead guilty and executing the person privately.
Instead, she spoke righteously, "Old Madam, please don't wrongly accuse good people. Do you really think we are from the border and have no temper?"
"Are we too full to waste our time teaching a little bitch a lesson?"
"It was Madam's order. She's not happy that Xuezhi, that little bitch, didn't take good care of the Second Young Master. If he gets hurt, wouldn't Madam be heartbroken?"
"So all of this was Madam's idea. Originally, we wanted to give Xuezhi thirty lashes of the cane to teach her a lesson, but we felt it was too harsh and couldn't bear it, so we changed it to a whip. Otherwise, this little bitch wouldn't have the energy to cry now. I'm afraid her bottom would have been bruised!"
The end is a fearless person.
He even portrayed himself as a kind and generous person.
It was Luo who gave the orders, and they were just following Luo's orders. What was wrong with that?
The old lady was almost furious.
He stretched out his hand and pointed angrily at the two evil servants, "Come, drag them away..."
Upon seeing this, Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Liu stood up abruptly, preventing the old lady's men from approaching. "No, old lady, this is clearly Madam's order. Why are you making fun of us? The Duke's Mansion is so great, but do they really take human life so lightly?"
"If you have anything to say, wait until Madam comes back."
"You keep accusing us of lynching, and now you're going to punish us without even figuring out the whole thing. Do you think this is fair?"
The two old women were not only unruly but also had great eloquence.
Everyone in the old lady's room had witnessed this.
At first, the old lady endured it blindly for the sake of the eldest and second sons, but now she has become more and more indulgent of their rampant behavior.
"Okay... okay..." The old lady was so angry that her chest heaved.
Nanny Tang's eyes were filled with hatred. "How dare you! Our old lady is a first-rank imperial consort. Even the emperor has to give her some respect. I think you're tired of living!"
They were just two lowly old slaves, yet they dared to openly challenge the old lady.
If it weren't for the old lady thinking about the eldest and second sons...
Thinking of this, Nanny Tang couldn't help but sigh. She always had a hunch that the old lady's life would probably end in nothing today.
After all, the eldest and second sons are in such bad shape now, and the Luo family has something against them, so they have no confidence.
But to Nanny Tang's surprise, after the old lady calmed down, she actually asked Jiang Ying what she thought, "Jiang girl, do you think I should deal with them?"
The long-accumulated grief and regret miraculously found an outlet the moment he spoke to Jiang Ying.
This is the child of their Jiang family.
A child who makes people feel that they have found a way out.
Jiang Ying was stunned. "Old Madam, are you... asking for my opinion?"
