Rong'er was so frightened that her legs went limp and she knelt down, her body trembling. She knew Xu Ranyun was deliberately looking for trouble, so she didn't dare to argue, and just kept begging for mercy, "My slave is blind, Madam Yun, please spare my life."
"Blind? It's obvious that she did it on purpose." Xu Ranyun sneered, his eyes swept across Aunt Jiang's pale face, and suddenly shouted: "Fengxian, come up and smack the mouth of this evil-minded slave until she confesses."
"Granny Yun's words are weird. What is she confessing? She just bumped into someone while walking. Why does it seem like there is someone behind this? I just don't understand. What's the point of someone behind this? Could a bump into someone hurt Grandma Yun? Grandma isn't pregnant. She shouldn't be so fragile, right?"
No matter how angry and resentful she was, Aunt Jiang was doomed to be powerless in front of Xu Ranyun. Even Aunt Jing, although she was now in charge of half of the family, was ultimately limited by her status and could only raise objections but could not give orders.
She couldn't give orders, but Aunt Jing was really disgusted by Xu Ranyun's bullying face, so she couldn't help but make a few sarcastic remarks. She held Aunt Jiang's hand and could feel that she was trembling. Thinking of how this woman risked her life to slander Su Nuannuan in front of the old lady for her son, she was really afraid that if she couldn't hold it, Aunt Jiang would do something extremely impulsive.
Is this the moment Xu Ranyun was waiting for? No matter what the reason, a concubine who bullies the master in public will not have a good end. Even if the Marquis's Mansion does not pursue it, the Earl's Mansion will also bring troops to punish the crime. In this huge Marquis's Mansion, except for Su Nuannuan, probably no one is willing to offend the Earl's Mansion because of Concubine Jiang, not even Duan Tingxuan. Because it is not worth it. And because the young Marquis does not take Concubine Jiang to heart.
"You are a prostitute redeemed from a brothel, and you dare to mock me?"
Xu Ranyun turned around suddenly and stared at Aunt Jing, but she pretended to be terrified and waved her hands repeatedly to defend herself: "What are you talking about, Madam Yun? I am just stating the facts. Am I wrong? If not, then I apologize to you, Madam."
"Don't think that I can't deal with you just because I have the support of my great grandmother." Xu Ranyun's eyes flashed with a fierce light. But Aunt Jing instantly regained her composure, lowered her eyes and said calmly: "Grandma Yun is right. Without my great grandmother, you can crush me to death with just one finger. Fortunately, I still have my great grandmother to make the decision for me."
"you……"
"Sister, forget it. Why bother with these people?" Xue Zhilan reminded her coldly, but Xu Ranyun said sternly, "No. I must drive this bitch out. Seeing me lose power, she has bad intentions, but she doesn't even think about who she is. Do you think I can't even deal with you?"
"Grandma Yun..."
Madam Jiang couldn't help it. She was about to speak, but was stopped by Madam Jing. She smiled and said, "Madam Yun. Although the Anping Marquis's Mansion is a rich and noble family, from the old lady to us concubines, there has never been any behavior of harming servants. Rong'er has been with Madam Jiang for six years. You want to beat her and drive her away without a legitimate reason. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"
"What? You told me that I'm so poor that I can't even deal with a maid?" Xu Ranyun was furious, but Aunt Jing stood there calmly and said in a deep voice: "It's not that I can't deal with her, but there are so many people in this big house, so there must be rules. As the saying goes, there is no order without rules. If you punish your maid, outsiders can't do anything about it, but no one can punish other people's maids. Even if you want to punish her, you have to take it to grandma and let her make the decision."
Aunt Jing also manages some of the people in the mansion, but now she knows that she has to avoid suspicion. It doesn't matter, not to mention that the young lady doesn't dare to offend the eldest lady now. Even if she dares to offend, she will not offend the eldest lady for Xu Ranyun.
Rong'er is Aunt Jiang's maid, and Aunt Jiang is from the Grandmother's courtyard. Rong'er is naturally also from Chunfengyuan, but because her status is too low compared to Xu Ranyun, if Su Nuannuan is not around, Aunt Jing and Aunt Jiang will definitely not be able to withstand Xu Ranyun's pressure, so they have to talk about the rules.
Coincidentally, just as Aunt Jing finished speaking, Shi Yurou's voice came from behind her: "What's going on? What are you doing in this garden?"
Aunt Jing quickly made way, and when Shi Yurou came close, she smiled and told the story. When Shi Yurou and Xu Ranyun were in charge of the family together, they had fought openly and secretly, not to mention that now she naturally wanted to help Su Nuannuan. This was not because she really liked to be close to Su Nuannuan, but because the situation was stronger than she was, so she had to bow her head. Yes, Auntie was so miserable now, but she had a large amount of money coming in, so this miserable feeling had become less and less.
At that moment, he put on an appearance of impartiality, looked at Xu Ranyun and smiled and advised: "What a small matter, is it worth making such a fuss? Sister Yun, you are the daughter of the Earl's Mansion, why do you lose your noble status for a slave? It's not worth it. Besides, the eldest grandmother is pregnant now. I heard that it was because of the previous fatigue and running around. Although she didn't hurt her mouth, her mood was erratic. I went to see her a few days ago. Because of a small mistake, she scolded me and made me look humiliated. When the old lady heard about it, she said that she was pitiful. She was pregnant at such an old age and was in a hard time, so she didn't let me take it to heart. Today, you insist on dealing with Rong'er seriously. If you really make her angry, she will go to Xia Yuxuan to make a scene, and you can't do anything. On the contrary, everyone will say that you are not broad-minded enough. Why bother to make the eldest grandmother unhappy at this time? Think about it, isn't this a loss?"
"When did Rong'er become the maid of the Grandmother?" Xu Ranyun was so angry that he rolled his eyelids and sneered, "If she was the maid of the Grandmother, how could I dare to mention the word "disposal"? I'm afraid I would be busy making way for her. Everyone knows that the Grandmother is now overbearing and no one in the mansion dares to mess with her? But this Rong'er, is she qualified to serve the Grandmother? Second brother and sister-in-law, don't think that I am not in charge of the family now and want to fool me."
"Oh, how dare I?" Shi Yurou smiled more and more brilliantly, and said leisurely: "Although I am not serving the Grandmother, I am also a maid of Chunfeng Garden. These few times I went to Chunfeng Garden, Aunt Jiang was often there to make some small clothes for the Grandmother's unborn child. Sometimes Honglian Xiangyun was not free, and it was Rong'er who served tea and water. Sister Yun, although she is not the Grandmother's maid in name, the Grandmother must have her in her heart. If she can't see it, how can she not ask? Once asked, she will definitely be annoyed. If the two sisters-in-law feel that my words are insignificant and useless, you might as well go to the Madam and ask her to make the decision for you. As long as the Madam gives the order, even if the Grandmother is unwilling, you have to give her face, how about it? Don't make it difficult for me here."
