Chapter 28 Just Don't Let Me Hear It



Her skirt was taken off in public, revealing her underwear with holes on it. Even though Mrs. Liu had a thicker skin than a city wall, she couldn't stand it anymore. She hurriedly reached out and forcefully snatched the skirt from under Ah Man's feet.

Ah Man frowned and refused to lift his feet. Then there was a rustling sound, and the khaki skirt broke into two pieces.

There was a burst of laughter.

"How disgraceful! How disgraceful!" Old Madam Feng was so angry that her face turned blue.

Jiang Si didn't even look at Mrs. Liu. He walked past her and came to the second wife, Mrs. Xiao, and said sternly, "If the second wife can't even control such a shrewd servant, it's better for her not to be a housekeeper."

"What did you say?" Xiao Shiwan didn't expect Jiang Si to be so direct and was stunned for a moment.

The laughter stopped immediately and all eyes fell on Jiang Si.

"It was Second Aunt who told Grandmother to send Mrs. Liu and her family to the manor. I didn't expect that Mrs. Liu and her family would stay in the manor at this time, and Mrs. Liu would come here to make trouble. Fortunately, we have already paid our respects to Grandmother and left Cixin Hall. If we had been earlier, would Mrs. Liu have broken into Cixin Hall?"

Jiang Si glanced at Madam Feng, with a sneer on his face: "Just now, Granny Liu threatened to kill herself. If she broke into Cixin Hall and my maid didn't stop her in time, would the hall be covered in blood? Then, can Grandmother still live in Cixin Hall in the future?"

When Mrs. Feng heard this, her face became even uglier.

Xiao almost died.

This Jiang Si is so sharp-tongued that no one gives her any face in front of so many people!

"Second aunt, you have been the housekeeper for many years, and now you want to send someone away and cause such a thing. Your niece can only think that you are too indulgent to the servants, so that they ignore your orders!"

"That's not the case—"

Xiao opened her mouth to explain, but Jiang Si didn't give her a chance to explain. He knelt down in front of Old Madam Feng and said, "Grandmother, if the servants in the mansion follow suit in the future and run to the master to seek death when they are dissatisfied with the master's punishment, then wouldn't the Bo Mansion be in chaos? Today, Granny Liu can threaten me with death, and in the future Granny Zhang and Granny Wang can threaten other sisters, even the second aunt, the third aunt, and even Grandmother with death. Then how can our family still have a good reputation?"

The girl's voice was clear and melodious, like pearls falling on a jade plate. Her words made Old Madam Feng turn pale, and she looked at Xiao with increasingly unfriendly eyes.

"Old lady——"

"What did I say yesterday? Xiao, can't you even handle such a small matter? Do you want me to ask her to leave?" Old Madam Feng pointed at Mrs. Liu.

Xiao's heart skipped a beat, knowing that Jiang Si had taken the initiative and had the upper hand. She should not make any more noise at this moment, and immediately shouted at Mrs. Liu, "What are you still doing here, old slave? Get back to the farm!"

Mrs. Liu was so frightened that she kowtowed to Old Madam Feng and immediately picked up half of her skirt and tried to escape from this place of trouble.

"Wait a minute." Jiang Si said coldly.

"Fourth Miss, is there anything else?" Xiao's scalp began to tingle when she heard Jiang Si's words.

"He is willing to die in exchange for his master, and he doesn't have to pay any price afterwards. It's no wonder that Second Aunt is so kind that she can't control this cunning servant. I can already foresee that once this cunning servant leaves the Earl's Mansion, he will trample on my reputation at will without any fear."

"Let's see who dares!" Old Madam Feng shouted coldly, her eyes like a knife slowly sweeping over the crowd.

Anyone who caught Madam Feng's gaze lowered their heads involuntarily.

"Mrs. Liu, listen carefully. If you spread even a word about what happened in the manor, you and your family will not have to stay in the manor anymore."

Mrs. Liu knelt down and said, "I dare not, I dare not."

She lowered her head and apologized, but couldn't help complaining to the second wife, Mrs. Xiao.

The Second Wife promised that today's commotion would ruin the Fourth Miss's reputation, and she would also receive many benefits when she got to the manor.

But the old lady had spoken, so not only could she not say anything bad about the fourth young lady in public, she also had to be on guard all the time, lest someone else say anything too much, she would be in big trouble.

If I had known this would happen, I would have gone to the manor quietly.

"And you, if anyone discusses this matter in the future, he will be taken away by human traffickers!" Old Lady Feng shouted.

"I dare not."

"Go away! Jiang Si, you stay."

Everyone rushed out as if they had been pardoned.

Jiang Qiao turned her head and looked at Jiang Si curiously.

I have to say, compared to the times when Jiang Si argued with her in the past, the fact that he dared to squeeze Second Aunt-in-law like this today really made her look at him in a new light.

"Qiao'er, let's go." The third wife, Mrs. Guo, quietly pulled Jiang Qiao.

"Grandma, what do you want me to do?" Jiang Si asked calmly.

Madam Feng looked Jiang Si up and down, her expression cold: "Jiang Si, you have to remember that it is not good for a girl to be too sharp-tongued."

She was neither deaf nor blind, so she could see that this granddaughter was in conflict with the Xiao family.

She didn't care what Jiang Si did. A girl who had broken off an engagement had limited future, but it would be unacceptable if she brought bad reputation to other granddaughters!

"Don't worry, grandma. I'll remember this." Jiang Si seemed not to be able to hear Madam Feng's dissatisfaction and smiled sweetly at her.

"Go down." Old Madam Feng found Jiang's smile irritating and waved her hand impatiently.

A useless granddaughter is not worth her worrying about unless she causes any trouble.

As for Xiao... she has been the housekeeper for so long, it's time for someone to give her a hard time.

"Granddaughter, take your leave."

Jiang Si left leisurely, and on the way back to Haitangju, he met Xiao who was waiting on the roadside.

"Second aunt." Jiang greeted Xiao with a smile, as if the previous aggressiveness had never existed.

Xiao gritted his teeth secretly.

She was really impressed by the shamelessness of this damn girl!

"Does the fourth lady have any opinions about the second aunt?"

"Auntie, you're overthinking it. My niece always sticks to the facts. How could she have any opinion about an elder?"

"What a good way to stick to the facts!" Standing outside, Xiao had a gentle smile on her face, but her words were not pleasant to hear. "Sister-in-law passed away early, and I, as your aunt, cannot just watch Fourth Miss go astray. I kindly remind you that people's words are scary, and the hardest thing to stop in this world is people's mouths."

Although the old lady had said that servants were not allowed to gossip, there was no such thing as a wall that was impenetrable. Would the old lady send all the servants away? This was obviously impossible.

Jiang Si smiled at Xiao: "I understand the principle that the law does not punish the masses. But it doesn't matter. I have only one point in mind. I will look for my aunt when the time comes."

After she finished speaking, she knelt gracefully in front of Xiao and said, "Second Aunt, you can enjoy the scenery for a while. I will go first."

Xiao stood beside the flower tree, staring at the girl's slim back, feeling so angry that her heart ached.

This damn girl, sooner or later she will give her a good beating!

"Miss, the second wife must be scolding you in her heart." Ah Man turned his head and took a look, then complained quietly.

"It's okay, just don't let me hear it." Jiang Si said lightly.
