Chapter 178 Heavy punishment, the longest road is his mother's routine

Although Jiang Youning has never managed anyone, she has an older brother at home who can manage many people.

She also knows that if Du Huilan is not punished, people in the general's mansion will only think that she is easy to control.

"Let's go and take a look."

Jiang Youning stood up, picked up the round fan, and walked out.

Chuntao took out a paper umbrella to shade Jiang Youning.

Lingxi Courtyard and Yixiang Garden are not far away. They can reach there after walking through a long corridor.

When Jiang Youning stepped into Yixiang Garden, Du Huilan was sitting at the table drinking tea with a book next to her, looking very leisurely.

Du Huilan raised her head and saw Jiang Youning coming, then she stood up.

"Madam, why are you here?"

Jiang Youning glanced at the table and found a few books scattered in a corner. She saw the words "Buddhist Scripture" on the cover.

She looked back at Du Huilan. "I heard from Chuntao that you didn't copy a single word of the Buddhist scriptures."

Du Huilan glanced at Jiang Youning with disdain, "So what?"

Jiang Youning didn't waste any words and ordered: "Second Madam ignored the rules of the mansion and ignored the mistress of the house. She should be punished with twenty strokes of the cane and then kneel in the Buddhist temple until she admits her mistake.

As soon as Jiang Youning finished speaking, two old ladies came in, grabbed Du Huilan's arms, and walked out.

The two old ladies were both doing rough work and had some strength in their hands, and Du Huilan couldn't struggle away at all.

Du Huilan struggled and looked back at Jiang Youning, her eyes full of anger, "I'm the granddaughter of a general. What grounds do you have to punish me?"

Jiang Youning replied: "Because I'm the general's wife. "

Du Huilan gritted her teeth in hatred when she heard the word 'general's wife'. If Jiang Youning hadn't seduced Xie Jing, the general's wife would have been hers.

At this time, two old ladies came in from outside and started to wrestle with the two old ladies who held Du Huilan.

"Let's see who dares to do that to my girl." The two old ladies were obviously worldly-wise.

Jiang Youning glanced at the arrogant old lady in front of her, "This is the general's mansion, not the Du family's general's mansion. How dare an old slave lady act wildly in the general's mansion?"

"Leng Yu, drag the two old ladies out, give them thirty lashes with the cane, and lock them up in the woodshed. "

As soon as the voice fell, Leng Yu and Leng Chen walked in quickly, each holding one, and walked out like carrying a chicken.

The old mother, who was originally full of vigor, had already wilted.

Not long after Du Huilan was pulled out, she heard a heart-wrenching cry.

Caiyue cried so miserably when she saw her own light, and then looked at Jiang Youning, she was so scared that she didn't dare to look up.

Who would have thought that the weak Jiang Youning would be so cruel when she did.

Chuntao felt relieved when she saw the cry. Since marrying into the general's mansion, Du Huilan has always relied on her status and ignored the girl.

If the tiger doesn't show its power, it will think my girl is

a sick cat . After the caning was over, Du Huilan was carried by her mother to the Buddhist temple to kneel. Because

her posture was not correct, her mother used a feather whisk to beat her, "Second Madam, kneel down properly. "

Du Huilan was punished, how could she kneel properly?

However, if she didn't kneel properly, she would be beaten, and she had to kneel properly no matter how painful it was.

The other two old ladies were punished and locked up in the woodshed. The

news that the lady taught the second lady a lesson spread in the general's mansion, and everyone in the mansion looked at the delicate lady with new eyes.

When Nan Mianmian heard the news that Du Huilan was punished, she was stunned at first, and then she felt a little schadenfreude.

Nan Mianmian knew what kind of person Du Huilan was.

However, Jiang Youning really opened her eyes. She was not a sick cat?

Nan Mianmian always thought that Jiang Youning was a weak and incompetent woman. If the general hadn't spoiled her, wouldn't she be bullied to death in the general's mansion?

"I have to go and take a look. "

It's rare to see Du Huilan in such a ferocious look.

Xiuhe shook her head helplessly as she looked at her daughter so excited, her focus was never on business.

Nan Mianmian came to the Buddhist hall waving a round fan. As soon as she stepped in, she saw Du Huilan kneeling there, her hair was disheveled and her clothes were wrinkled.

Looking to the side, there was an old woman standing there with a feather duster in her hand, and she looked like a female demon.

The old woman saw Nan Mianmian, stepped forward to greet her, "Third Madam."

Nan Mianmian said, "I just came to see the Second Madam. "

The old mother glanced at Du Huilan. The second lady ignored the rules of the mansion and is being punished."

The old mother's words not only explained the situation, but also served as a warning.

Anyone who dares to ignore the rules of the mansion and ignore the lady will be punished.

Nan Mianmian walked slowly to Du Huilan and saw that she was lowering her head, her hair in front was even more messy, and her clothes were soaked.

"Sister Du, you too, why are you challenging the Madam? Even though you are a co-wife, you are only a co-wife, and you are only a little better than a concubine like me. You have to listen to the Madam no matter what, right?"

Nan Mianmian stared at Du Huilan and said, "Look at what you look like now, you are so wicked."

Du Huilan was so angry that she trembled all over when she heard Nan Mianmian's voice, like a fly, annoying.

"Get out of here." Du Huilan almost yelled, but she was just punished and was in great pain, so her voice was much weaker.

Nan Mianmian said helplessly, "Look, you have been punished but you still don't learn your lesson. You are still yelling, this is the general's residence, not your mother's home."

Du Huilan was so angry that she almost died.

"Second Madam, you should reflect on yourself. The Buddhist hall is too hot. I'd better go back and eat some iced watermelon."

Nan Mianmian glanced at Du Huilan and left with a smile on her face.

Du Huilan almost fainted from the pain in her body.

Caiyue couldn't bear it, so she came over to persuade her, "Girl, why don't you admit your mistakes like Madam?"

Du Huilan gritted her teeth, with beads of sweat on her forehead. After a long time, she squeezed out a sentence, "Why should I admit my mistakes like her? She is not worthy of standing by my side. I am the granddaughter of the general."

Caiyue choked up and said, "Miss, this is the General's Mansion, and there are still some rules that must be followed."

The old lady listened to the maid's words and also continued, "No matter what Madam's previous status was, now Madam is the mistress of the General's Mansion. No matter how noble Second Madam's status was before, she married into the General's Mansion as a wife, and her status is lower. Madam is not an unreasonable person. If Second Madam admits her mistakes and is willing to repent, Madam will naturally let Second Madam go back to rest."

Du Huilan listened to the old lady's words, gritted her teeth and said nothing.

The old lady didn't say anything either.

Jiang Youning woke up from a nap, and the sun was already setting.

Chuntao came in and saw that she had woken up. "Miss, the old lady is here."

Jiang Youning said, "Let her in."

The old lady bowed and came in. "Madam, the second lady admitted her mistake."

Jiang Youning took the teacup in front of her and drank a few sips of tea. "Let her come over."

"Yes, madam." Not long after the old lady left, she brought Du Huilan in.

When Du Huilan came forward to pay her respects, she was exhausted and fell to the ground. She supported her hands and knelt on the ground.

"Madam, I know I was wrong." Du Huilan gritted her teeth.

Jiang Youning put down the teacup in her hand, looked up at Du Huilan, and saw that she was lowering her head and her hair was a little messy.

"Does the Second Madam know where she went wrong?"

Du Huilan bit her lip and said, "Madam, I shouldn't have offended you, nor should I have ignored your instructions."

Jiang Youning nodded with satisfaction, "Since the Second Madam knows she is wrong, go back and copy the Diamond Sutra three times, and bring it to me in three days."

Du Huilan thought that she would be fine after admitting her mistake, but she didn't expect that she had to copy the Buddhist scriptures?

She would have to read it in three days, and she was injured now, how could she copy it?

Jiang Youning was clearly deliberately making things difficult for her.

But now, she could only do as she was told.

"I know, Madam."

Jiang Youning said, "Go back."

Du Huilan stood up with the help of the maid, and then walked out.

After everyone left, Chuntao said, "Miss, the second lady is probably not convinced."

Jiang Youning looked at the tea cake on the table, picked up a piece and put it into her mouth and took a bite, "I know she is not convinced. If she was so easily convinced, she would have admitted her mistake long ago."

Chuntao said, "It's better to be on guard against her in the future. Who knows if she will take the opportunity to retaliate in the future?"

Jiang Youning sighed. This is the most annoying thing in the ancient mansions.

No, it should be that women in the back house will be like this from time to time.

Just like the court, when there are many officials, there will be struggles.

Three women in a play, why not fight the landlord, eat melon seeds and gossip?

In the past two days, there has been no movement in Jinling City, and Prince Jing's Mansion is also peaceful.

Xiao Yu was a little uneasy, and he couldn't wait to rush to the general's mansion.

"Ning'er, I'm so nervous."

Jiang Youning looked at Xiao Yu, who was frowning, and didn't understand why he always came when she was about to go to bed.

"What's wrong? Are you sick?"

Xiao Yu shook the folding fan in his hand vigorously, just like his heartbeat at this moment, and he was very nervous.

"I have a bad feeling that I will be unlucky soon."

Jiang Youning was very sleepy. When she heard him say that he was going to be unlucky, she thought it was something dangerous, such as kidnapping and murder.

She had seen Xiao Yu in Kung Fu before. Although she didn't know if he was as powerful as Xie Jing, he was also very powerful.

The sleepy bug ran away halfway.

"Why don't you stay in the general's mansion for a few days, Leng Yu and the others can protect you."

Xiao Yu stopped waving his folding fan, and looked straight at Jiang Youning with his beautiful peach blossom eyes, seeing her worried look.

He paused, then smiled.

"What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Youning asked in confusion: "Then what do you mean?"

Xiao Yu thought for a while and said: "I just said that I have a bad premonition, I feel that someone wants to cheat me."

Jiang Youning said: "You are the young master, who dares to cheat you?"

"Ordinary people dare not cheat, but there are always extraordinary people." Xiao Yu pondered for a while, and his mother's peerless face flashed through his mind.

"I remember now. Mother has been smiling at me these past two days, as if she had won a prize."

Jiang Youning had met Princess Jing before. She was beautiful, kind, and humorous. She felt a bit like a modern person. Xiao Yu must have inherited Princess Jing's genes.

"How could your mother cheat you?"

Xiao Yu chuckled twice; "Ning'er, you are still too naive. When my mother cheated, you were not even born yet."

Jiang Youning: "..." Is it really okay to say this about your own mother?

Xiao Yu whispered in Jiang Youning's ear, "My mother deceived my father, and the late emperor was deceived by my mother."

Jiang Youning's eyes widened with admiration, "Your mother is so amazing."

Xiao Yu sighed, "Yes, the longest road I have ever walked is my mother's routine."

Jiang Youning couldn't help laughing, "Then you are miserable."

Xiao Yu sighed again, "I'm worried that my mother will sell me out."

Jiang Youning said, "Not really, right?"

Although she has never been a mother, when she becomes a mother, she will definitely love her children very much.

Xiao Yu shook her head helplessly, my mother is a swindler, it is very likely that she sold him out.

Three days later, Xiao Yu's premonition was verified.

Xiao Yu found out that his mother had prepared wedding clothes for him and even sent out wedding invitations.

He was indeed the last one to know about his marriage. Such a bloody thing, is it unique?

"Mother, are you really going to sell your son?"

When Princess Jing saw her son coming, she smiled and said, "How could your mother sell you? You are your only child, and you are your treasure."

Xiao Yu chuckled twice. Every time she tricked him, she would say this. Did she really think I was a three-year-old child?

"Then why did mother decide on the marriage? I was the last one to know."

Princess Jing comforted her, "You were not the last one to know, don't be sad."

Xiao Yu: "..."

"Let me make this clear today. Do you want a daughter-in-law or a son? You can only have one."

Princess Jing looked over with a smile, reached out and touched her son's handsome face, with a look of cherishment.

Xiao Yu's heart fell quietly. Mother still wanted him.

Just as he let go of his heart, he heard Princess Jing say, "Of course it's a daughter-in-law. When you get married, you belong to your daughter-in-law, not your mother."

Xiao Yu: "..." Died of vomiting blood~

When Jiang Youning saw Xiao Yu again, he was as aggrieved as a child.

"Ning'er, my life is over."

Jiang Youning had never seen Xiao Yu so wronged, and she felt sorry for him.

"Did your mother really screw you?"

Xiao Yu was really desperate this time. It would be better for him to become a monk than to marry an ugly woman.

"Don't mention it, my mother doesn't want me anymore."

At this time, Chuntao led the housekeeper in, "Madam, the housekeeper is here."

The housekeeper walked in with his body bent, and handed the wedding invitation in his hands, "Madam, this is the wedding invitation from Prince Jing's Mansion."

Chuntao walked over, took the wedding invitation from the housekeeper and handed it to Jiang Youning.

Jiang Youning took the wedding invitation, glanced at the gold-plated font on it, and smiled, "I haven't had a banquet for a long time."

She opened the wedding invitation with curiosity, and saw the two big characters "Xiao Yu" on it, which were very eye-catching. The

wedding invitation from Prince Jing's Mansion...

She raised her head and looked at Xiao Yu, and saw that he had a decadent look as if he was going to die.
