Aunt Fang took in all the subtle changes on Old Master Ren's face and felt a little relieved. She knew that as long as Old Master Ren had any hesitation in his heart, he would not allow others to deal with her without authorization, and her goal today would be achieved.
Others may not understand, but Aunt Fang sees it clearly. Although the affairs of the inner courtyard should be under the jurisdiction of Old Madam Ren, it is Old Master Ren's opinion that ultimately plays a decisive role.
Old Master Ren thought about it in his heart, and then said calmly: "I understand, you can go down first."
Fang Yi Niang's eyes suddenly reddened, and she said timidly, "Old Master, I have always been wholeheartedly thinking about the Ren family, without any second thoughts. Please save my life, Old Master. I will serve the Ren family like a slave in this life and the next."
Fortunately, Aunt Fang was smart and knew that Old Master Ren still had to pay attention to his reputation in public. Although her face looked sad, she did not kneel down in public.
Old Master Ren frowned and said, "I just heard what happened today. If what happened to Yaoyu wasn't you, go back and talk to the old lady. Why are you crying like that?"
Aunt Fang shook her head: "Someone is deliberately trying to frame me. It's useless for me to explain. Besides, because of what happened with Ying'er last time, I still have some resentment towards the Fifth Madam..."
At this time, several maids and old women came from the direction of Ronghuayuan. They were the same ones who had gone to invite Concubine Fang before. It turned out that they had reported to the old lady after returning that Concubine Fang was not in Fangfeiyuan. The old lady then ordered them to come out and look for her everywhere.
The place where Concubine Fang and Old Master Ren were talking was not very remote, so a sharp-eyed maid saw Concubine Fang and was about to run over when she saw clearly that it was Old Master Ren standing next to Concubine Fang. The maids and maids could not help but pause and looked at each other, not knowing whether to come over or avoid her.
Old Master Ren also saw the people from Ronghua Courtyard. His expression remained unchanged as he said calmly, "Did the old lady ask you to invite Auntie to Ronghua Courtyard?"
The leading maid came up hurriedly and replied: "In reply to the old master. It was the old lady who asked us to come. We went to Fangfei Courtyard just now, but the concubine was not in the yard, so the old lady asked us to come and look for her again." She was still secretly looking at the concubine Fang, whose eyes were slightly red, out of the corner of her eye, and felt a little strange in her heart.
Old Master Ren nodded and said, "Take Aunt Fang with you."
Aunt Fang looked at Old Master Ren with a hint of pleading in her eyes.
Old Master Ren said, "Go ahead. If it wasn't you who did it, the Ren family will naturally give you justice." Even if Old Master Ren wanted to protect Aunt Fang because of the Fang family's relationship, he wouldn't do it in public, otherwise it would be a disaster.
Aunt Fang also understood this and couldn't help but sigh inwardly. When Lin got angry, she was very reckless. Fortunately, it seemed that the old master would protect her. She had escaped a disaster today.
As for the person who was plotting against her behind her back... well, we'll just have to wait and see!
Aunt Fang knelt down and bowed to Old Master Ren, then lowered her head and obediently followed the maids and old women, without saying a single word along the way.
Ren Yaoqi also received the news.
Aunt Zhou said in shock, "Why did she go to see the old master? She...isn't this against the rules?"
