The atmosphere was wrong, and Huang Quan also appeared. Aju, the maid beside Han, was holding her waist with both hands and yelling at the servants of Feng Mansion. She shouted for a while, and even pointed at the housekeeper He Zhong: "Housekeeper He, can you be more careful? This celadon bottle is the favorite of the lady. It was given by the master when the lady entered the mansion! If you break it, you can't afford to apologize."
He Zhong looked helpless, but he didn't want to argue with a maid, so he just said, "Don't worry." Then he walked across the front yard to the south holding a celadon bottle.
Feng Yuheng was puzzled: "I have only been away from the mansion for more than a month, and there is a mistress in the mansion again?"
Huang Quan said: "How is it possible? Feng Xiang hasn't even returned yet, so who will give her the title of mistress?"
"Didn't you hear what people said about Madam?" She said as she walked forward a few steps. Ah Ju happened to turn her head and saw Feng Yuheng.
When she saw Feng Yuheng returning home, Ah Ju was stunned for a moment, as if she was extremely frightened, and she almost turned around and ran away.
Feng Yuheng waved at her, "Come here."
Ah Ju wanted to stick her feet to the ground, and she was unwilling to move even a step towards Feng Yuheng.
The second young lady hasn't appeared for more than a month. I heard that she left the capital. How come she suddenly came back?
Seeing that the girl hadn't moved, Huang Quan lost his patience, took a few steps forward, grabbed Aju by the collar, lifted her up and put her in front of Feng Yuheng.
Ah Ju was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she kept muttering, "Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Feng Yuheng laughed and said, "Who said I wanted to kill you? When did the maids in the Feng Mansion become so sharp-tongued and started to plot against the legitimate young lady?"
“No, no, no!” As soon as Huang Quan let go, Ah Ju fell to her knees on the ground, “Second Miss, please spare me! Second Miss, please spare me!”
Feng Yuheng returned to the mansion, and the maids and servants who were running around in the courtyard with things in their arms also gathered around her to greet her. She looked at the things in the servants' hands and was even more puzzled, "Is the mansion moving?" After asking, she looked at Ah Ju and said, "You have served Aunt Han for many years, and Aunt Han has always treated you well. Although Aunt Han has limited monthly salary and no subsidies from her family and shop, she can't make the maids around her as respectable as those in other courtyards, but you can't do such a betrayal!"
Ah Ju was stunned. What did she mean by betraying her master? "I didn't betray my master!"
"You're still saying no? You bold servant, I heard it with my own ears, and you still dare to quibble? Huang Quan, slap your face!"
"Yes." Huang Quan didn't care about that. When he heard Feng Yuheng's order, he picked up Ah Ju without saying a word, raised his hands and slapped her left and right.
That's more than 20 blows! Huang Quan's hand was so strong that he hit Ah Ju so hard that she could hardly open her eyes.
Feng Yuheng then said, "Alright, stop fighting. You have to hold your breath so that I can ask questions."
Huang Quan then let go and threw Aju to the ground.
The servants who had been scolded by Aju before were very happy to see this. Even the butler He Zhong, who had just delivered the porcelain vases and returned to the front yard, stood aside and watched, secretly applauding in his heart.
Ah Ju was beaten so hard that she wanted to cry, but it hurt when she moved her mouth. She could only lie on the ground and groan, but she still sobbed and said, "I didn't betray my master. I really didn't betray my master!"
Feng Yuheng looked down at her, "You're still saying no? I just heard you talking to Butler He about Madam and Madam. If you're still following Han, how could you work for Madam? Oh? By the way, when did a Madam come to our house? How come I didn't know about such a big thing?" As she spoke, she turned her head and asked He Zhong, "Butler He, tell me, what's going on?"
Upon hearing Feng Yuheng's question, He Zhong hurried forward and bowed, saying, "Second Miss, the master hasn't returned to the capital yet, so how could there be a lady coming to the mansion? Miss Aju is talking about Aunt Han."
"A concubine can also be called Madam, where are the rules of the Feng family?" She raised her voice sharply, and her eyes glared with anger.
Ah Ju was so scared that her whole body was shaking. She was really afraid that the second young lady would kill her if she got angry. But she felt wronged. She tried her best to do things for her master, but she didn't get any good results. How could she get into trouble? Han had been called Madam for a while, and the old lady didn't say anything. Why did the second young lady get angry when she came back?
Thinking of this, the girl raised her head again without knowing whether to live or die, and said with a swollen face: "Second Miss, Aunt Han is pregnant with the master's child."
"Oh!" Feng Yuheng was delighted, "Is this child finally pregnant?"
Ah Ju didn't understand what she meant, so she could only nod. But Feng Yuheng said, "Then I have to go visit her and take Aunt Han's pulse to see if her pregnancy is stable."
Ah Ju's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. Then she saw Feng Yuheng had already taken a step, as if to walk towards the inner courtyard. She was so scared that she hugged Feng Yuheng's legs and said in a panic, "No, no, I dare not trouble the Second Miss. The mansion has already called a doctor."
"Let go!" Huang Quan kicked Aju on the shoulder and kicked her five steps away. Aju almost vomited blood.
Feng Yuheng acted as if she didn't see it, and continued to talk to herself: "I am a good doctor, and I have even examined the emperor's dragon body. It is a blessing for Aunt Han to have me take her pulse. Why are you blocking the blessing of your master? Even if Han treated you a little harshly in the past, you have to think about the descendants of my Feng family." She said as she walked, "Don't stop me, otherwise I will not be responsible if my maid kicks you to death."
Aju didn't dare to say another word. She quickly got up from the ground and ran in another direction.
He Zhong glanced at her, then caught up with Feng Yuheng from behind and said in a hurry, "Second Miss, Aunt Han no longer lives in the courtyard she used to live in."
"Oh?" Feng Yuheng glanced at the direction where Ah Ju ran away, turned around and followed her in that direction, "Even the yard has been moved?"
"Yes." He Zhong said, "The other day, the fourth young lady told the old lady that the courtyard they live in is too quiet and has little sunlight, so she wants to move to the big courtyard in the south." He Zhong shook his head as he spoke, and said helplessly, "In fact, how could their courtyard have little sunlight? In the past, the master doted on Concubine Han the most, and gave her a much better courtyard than Concubine An, but it's just a little smaller."
Feng Yuheng raised her lips and smiled, "So which courtyard are you moving to now?"
He Zhong said, "It's next to the Yulan Courtyard, which was formerly the Jinyu Courtyard. Aunt Han said that she thought the Jinyu Courtyard was unlucky, otherwise she could have moved there directly."
Huang Quan couldn't listen any more, "What a villain is in power. Why doesn't the old lady persuade her to move to Jinyuyuan? Maybe Shen's spirit can come out and chat with her at night."
He Zhong also smiled, but said nothing. He just lowered his head and led the way.
Since Shen and Feng Zihao passed away, the Jinyu Courtyard and Jianlingxuan in the mansion became dead gardens. On weekdays, only maids and servants were left to guard the door, and no one was willing to go in. But because Shen and Feng Zihao had extraordinary status in the mansion in the past, the courtyards they lived in were in the best locations. Living in such a place more or less showed the owner's status in the mansion.
I think this is the reason why Han wanted to live in Yulan Courtyard.
Under He Zhong's guidance, Feng Yuheng stepped into the Magnolia Courtyard for the first time. She saw maids and servants busy shuttling back and forth, and it was more crowded than the old lady's Shuya Garden.
"Because Aunt Han is pregnant, the old lady specifically asked to arrange more people to take care of her." He Zhong explained to Feng Yuheng, "These maids and servants are borrowed from other courtyards, and we will buy more from outside the mansion in a while."
After hearing him say this, Feng Yuheng realized that, indeed, all these servants looked familiar, some of them...
There were people from An's side, Feng Chenyu's side, Jin Zhen's side, and even people from Shu Yayuan.
He Zhong stepped back a few steps, bowed and said, "We are in the inner courtyard of our house. I cannot stay any longer. I will leave first. Miss, please take care of yourself." After that, he stepped back a few more steps and left quickly.
Huang Quan curled his lips and said, "You actually asked Miss to be careful, can the Han family still eat people?"
Feng Yuheng said nothing, and walked towards the yard. When the servants in the yard saw her coming, they hurried over to greet her.
But to greet her, she had to stop the work in her hands temporarily. At this time, she heard a wolf-like voice roaring in the middle of the yard - "Why did you stop? Don't you want to eat? Get to work!" At the same time as these words, a whip sounded. The whip hit the back of a little girl with a snap, and blood seeped out of the whip tip and the shoulder.
The girl was caught off guard, frightened and hurt, and a porcelain plate in her hand fell to the ground and broke into eight pieces.
"Ah!" The female wolf roared and rushed forward, staring at the broken plate on the ground and stomping her feet: "Oh! This is such a precious thing, and it was broken by you, a bitch! I will beat you to death!" As she said that, she started to tear the little girl apart.
Huang Quan exclaimed in surprise: "Where did Han get such an old thing? He is really ruthless."
Feng Yuheng ordered quickly: "Go and help! She wants Meixiang to be with you."
After she reminded him, Huang Quan realized that, indeed, the girl who was beaten was Meixiang, who was beside Feng Xiangrong, the third daughter of the Feng family.
Because Xiangrong and Feng Yuheng had a close relationship, Meixiang often followed Xiangrong to Tongshengxuan. Because it was in Han's yard, Huangquan didn't think about it at first, and his attention was attracted by the female wolf, so he didn't pay attention to the girl who was beaten.
Now that he recognized that it was Meixiang, Huang Quan was furious. He took a few steps forward, raised his foot and kicked the person in the chest, kicking the nearly fifty-year-old woman far away.
Feng Yuheng walked up to Meixiang with a sullen face. When the girl saw that it was Feng Yuheng, she cried out "wow".
She patted Meixiang's shoulder and comforted her, "Don't cry, I'm back and I won't let you suffer any more."
Meixiang nodded, her face turned pale from the pain on her back. Even in such cold weather and wearing such thick clothes, she could still be beaten to the point of bleeding, which showed that the nanny was quite skilled.
Feng Yuheng felt that the person looked unfamiliar, so he walked forward a few steps and asked her, "Which courtyard are you originally a servant of?"
The old woman was kicked by Huang Quan and couldn't get up for a long time. She felt a fishy and sweet taste stuck in her throat. She had to swallow it hard to prevent the fishy and sweet taste from coming up.
She looked at the man who was asking her questions and subconsciously wanted to yell at him, but firstly, she had some internal injuries that made her unable to yell at him. Secondly, she suddenly remembered that Han had secretly told her that the most terrifying person in this mansion was not the old lady, nor the concubines and concubines, but the one who lived in Tongshengxuan next door.
The person in front of her... She felt a chill in her heart and broke out in a cold sweat.
"You are... the Princess of Ji'an County?"
