As he spoke, his eyes stared at the fourth lady with a half-smile. The lady clutched her handkerchief and lowered her head in fear of being stared at.
The old lady sat down on the ground and started to throw a tantrum: "I'm going to die, I'm going to die, I can't even enter my nephew's house! This is the consequence of marrying an unruly merchant girl, someone come..."
Before she could finish her howl, she was lifted up by the old woman and her mouth was gagged with a silk handkerchief. She struggled and stammered, her hair bun loosened and her clothes were messed up.
Madam Chang looked at the Fourth Lady and said, "I heard that the Third Young Master Ting Yan will be entering the government next year. It's a pity that he has a life on his hands."
The fourth room's eldest lady shook herself, and after calming down for a moment, she bent down and said, "Please tell Madam Hou that the Madam Tai has been in poor health recently and will not have time to bother you in the future. Please rest assured, Madam Hou."
Seeing that the fourth lady was sensible, Madam Chang smiled and said, "This servant respectfully sends you off, Madam."
Soon, the Fourth House's group left the Marquis's residence. Mother Chang stood there, spat softly, and muttered to herself, "All sorts of demons and monsters have come out."
As soon as she reached the main courtyard gate, she saw someone sneaking around with a bucket. Mother Chang shouted, "Who's there?"
The maids behind him rushed forward to catch the man, and when he saw them not far away, he tried to escape. However, he didn't get far before he was pinned to the ground by the two maids.
He was pinned to the ground and stopped struggling. A bucket of lamp oil lay scattered beside him, half full. When Mother Chang came closer, she saw the lamp oil on the ground and kicked the man in the head.
Then Madam Chang ordered the maidservant beside her, "Drag the man away for questioning." Then she looked at the oil drum and the maidservant on the ground and said, "Clean up this place."
Just as the servant was about to be dragged away, he shouted, "I want to see the Marquis's wife. I'll tell her everything when I see her."
Mother Chang stepped forward and slapped him twice, saying, "What a jerk! You really think you're a dish! I can find out the dirty tricks behind that with or without you."
The boy was about to speak, but Chang Mama took off her thick soles and started to slap him. After more than a dozen slaps, the boy's bloody face was horrifying. He trembled and begged for mercy: "Bie Da La, forehead lock."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he spat out a mouthful of blood and a tooth. After wiping his mouth, he said, "Think of the good, and the good will be buried with you."
After putting on her shoes, Madam Chang gave the servant a cold look and said to the maid, "Take him down and make him sign a confession. He will be beaten with thirty sticks. Whether he lives or dies will depend on his fate. Each of his family members will receive ten sticks, and they will all be locked up together."
The confession of the servant who had knocked Xiangyun down had been obtained. Mother Chang walked towards the dark room with the confession in her hand. After entering the house, she stood at the door to dissipate the cold air before walking towards Bai.
Seeing that Bai was a little sleepy, he went over to help her sleep. After she became pregnant, Bai sometimes fell asleep while eating. Judging from all her reactions, it must be a boy.
Mrs. Bai woke up just before dark, and Mrs. Chang, who had been waiting, came forward to help her wash and dress. After Mrs. Bai sat down and ate a bowl of blood swallows, Mrs. Chang came forward and handed her the confession.
"This Qin girl is really bold. She was disrespectful to her elders before, and now her half-sister dares to instigate the legitimate son to murder the second wife. However, Qin is a good concubine and comes from a marquis's mansion, so it's not easy to deal with her." Bai said as she read the confession.
Madam Chang frowned and said, "This concubine would not have a good fate if she had murdered the mistress, even if she were a princess. She is just a concubine of a marquis, so don't worry, young lady."
