Chapter 615 Beating Chu Yanluo
"The way you're talking right now is really irritating to me."
Shen Wantang sneered: "A maid should do what a maid should do. You are just a servant, and you have no right to teach me how to do things. Besides, being talkative will lead to a quick death. Your face looks like that of a short-lived ghost, which is unlucky."
Chu Yanluo clenched her hands tightly. Although she was Shen Mingxuan's maid, she never treated herself as a maid. Even Shen Mingxuan treated her with great respect and never made her do any chores. She never expected that Shen Wantang would not give her any face at all!
Her inherent pride was instantly ignited: "I'm no ordinary maid! I healed both the young lady's and the madam's injuries!"
"I am highly skilled in medicine, and I am also proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. I was originally a young lady from a wealthy family, but my family fell on hard times, so I had to come out to make a living!"
"Second Miss is so snobbish and looks down on us maids. It's clear she's not a kind person. You're dark-hearted and opportunistic. If the people in the Duke's mansion knew how despicable you are, would they still allow you to enter?"
Shen Wantang looked at Chu Yanluo coldly: "Are you threatening me?"
Chu Yanluo raised her chin high: "I'm just reminding Miss Second not to be too despicable, or you might lose your chance at marriage!"
"You really are threatening me."
As Shen Wantang spoke, she suddenly laughed: "My sister really doesn't know how to train a maid. She made you so disrespectful and arrogant in front of your master."
"But it's alright, my sister and I are one and the same. Her maid is my maid. If she can't teach her, then I'll teach her for her. If I discipline you well, my sister will surely thank me!"
"Guards! Tie this servant girl up and drag her to the courtyard to give her twenty lashes!"
Qin Xin and the others had long disliked Chu Yanluo. Chu Yanluo always secretly tripped them up and always looked at them with a gloomy gaze. So when they heard Shen Wantang's order, they immediately pounced over, tied Chu Yanluo up tightly, and dragged her out.
Chu Yanluo cried out, "Huayi, save me!"
Hua Yi hesitated for a moment before looking at Shen Wantang. She hadn't forgotten that there were two highly skilled men in black beside Shen Wantang, whose swords were so fast that they were impossible to see.
Although she was strong, she had never learned martial arts. The two men in black could kill her with a single sword strike without even touching her, so she didn't dare to make any rash moves for the time being.
While she hesitated, Chu Yanluo had already been dragged out by Qin Xin and the others, and was forced to the ground.
Chu Yanlu panicked. In her previous life, Shen Wantang was usually very respectable in the Ning Prince's Mansion. Even if she made a huge mistake, at most she would be locked in the woodshed and not given food. She never had anyone use force to kill her.
Therefore, she subconsciously felt that Shen Wantang would never resort to violence in his life.
Unexpectedly, Shen Wantang started hitting him without warning!
"Bang!"
With a slap, Chu Yanluo screamed in pain.
These maids from the Prince Ning's mansion hit people so hard!
"Painting style!"
Despite the excruciating pain, Chu Yanluo shouted, "What are you standing there for? Come and save me! Only I can help you realize that dream in your heart. If you don't help me, I will never help you again! Without me, you will never be able to set foot in the Ning Prince's Mansion again!"
Hua Yi's face paled. Just as she was about to move, she heard Shen Wantang say, "Hua Yi, it's one thing for you to go and be my sister's maid, but now it seems you've become Luo Yan's maid? You listen to everyone but me, right?"
Huayi immediately knelt down: "This servant dares not! This servant begs Second Miss to spare Luoyan. She is the eldest young lady's maid. Why do you have to humiliate her and make the eldest young lady lose face? Second Miss, you are a magnanimous person. There is no need to quarrel with the eldest young lady over a maid!"
"How could I have a falling out with my sister? We are sisters, and I was just disciplining a disobedient maid on her behalf. My sister won't blame me."
Shen Wantang remained calm, then casually pointed: "Qin Xin and the others don't seem to be very good at fighting. I heard that you protected my sister and Luo Yan and escaped from Chi Chun Lane all by yourself. You must have some martial arts skills, right? Then you go and beat Luo Yan with a board!"
Hua Yi froze completely: "What? Second Miss, you..."
"What, you dare disobey my orders? If you're going to be so disobedient, then I'll have no choice but to sell you off. I just don't know whether your kung fu is better or the brokerage's ability to deal with you is better."
Hua Yi dared not gamble; she believed that Shen Wantang truly wanted to sell her now.
If she were sold to a brokerage firm, then her life would be completely over.
She had been sold to a brokerage firm by her parents. She had resisted and tried to escape, but the brokerage firm had countless ways to deal with lowly slaves, and they had many informants. No matter where she ran away, she was always caught and brought back quickly.
They wouldn't give her food or water, and they would feed her large amounts of medicine, making it impossible for her to exert any strength.
Every time he tried to escape but was caught and brought back, he would be beaten half to death.
My time at the brokerage firm was a nightmare!
On the contrary, the obedient maids in the brokerage who didn't cry, make a fuss, or run away were all sold to wealthy families as maids. They had new clothes to wear, enough food, and a monthly allowance. The pretty ones could even become concubines for the young masters, changing their lives and comfortably becoming masters, no longer having to serve others.
Even the worst off would have a servant or something similar, but they could still make ends meet, which was much better than being beaten and starving in the brokerage firm.
Later, she became smarter and stopped crying and making a fuss. When the brokerage firm told her to learn the rules, she learned the rules; when they told her to do chores, she did chores. Soon, because of her beauty, she was recommended by the brokerage firm to the Prince of Ning's mansion.
Once she entered the Prince Ning's residence, she never wanted to leave again, because life there was just too comfortable!
She was so comfortable that she almost forgot about her days at the dental clinic.
Now, reminded by Shen Wantang, she suddenly remembered her identity—she was just a servant girl, and there was no way she could have a good ending if she challenged her master!
These thoughts flashed through Huayi's mind. She gritted her teeth, stood up, and walked out.
Qin Xin shoved the paddle into her hands: "I'm tired of hitting, Hua Yi, you take over!"
She really wanted to see just how strong Huayi was, because even now, she still thought Huayi was a weak and frail person.
Hua Yi trembled as she slightly raised the board, seemingly too weak to even lift it: "Luo, Luo Yan, I, I had no choice, please bear with it."
