Chapter 90 Urgently Asking for Help

Du Jingyi and Yingtao were both confused by what she said, so Yingtao spoke up.

"Didn't I ask you to go to Yunjin Courtyard to deliver something? Why did you start fighting?"

Lizhu came forward and spoke without even bothering to greet him.

"The third and fifth rooms are fighting in Yunjin Courtyard. I... I just arrived at the door and heard the clamor inside. The maids and servants surrounded them in a large circle, but no one dared to step forward to stop them."

"What are you fighting for? Could it be that the third and fifth rooms all know about the other party's dirty thoughts?"

Cherry then asked another question.

"I don't know. As soon as I heard the news, I rushed back to tell the young lady. I guess they are still making trouble now."

Hearing this, Du Jingyi smiled slightly and said to Yingtao.

"Go get some food and fill your stomach first. We might have a tough battle later."

When the two maids heard this, there was some excitement in their eyes.

After waiting for so long, I finally got the evidence to give these people a good beating.

This will save you from being "held hostage" by them every day, and making them think you are a piece of cake.

So, Cherry hurried to the small kitchen to get some ready-made food, and the three of them, the master and his servants, filled their stomachs first.

When Aunt Jiao, as her name suggests, rushed to the East Garden with a look of anxiety on her face.

Du Jingyi and others have eaten and drunk their fill and are ready to go to the "battlefield".

Outside the gate of East Garden, Madam Jiao brought a lot of people. I wondered if they were going to cause trouble for East Garden.

This alarmed many people.

Butler He was not there and Madam Dou had also gone out, so naturally the only person who could show up was Madam Cai.

She used to feel a little afraid when facing Aunt Jiao.

But he has learned a lot from following Nanny Dou these days, and gradually developed some of the manners of a servant from an aristocratic family.

Therefore, when Aunt Jiao spoke harshly, she remained calm.

"Are you kidding? I have something important to do and I need to see the young lady. Who do you think you are to block my way?"

"With Madam Dou away, the entire East Garden is under my charge. Although I don't have as much power as Madam Jiao, I will be the one who will leave the mansion with the general in the future. If Madam Jiao is not afraid of offending the general and the young lady, then go ahead!"

"you!"

In the past, Aunt Jiao also had dealings with Aunt Cai.

Naturally, I know her abilities.

What happened today? He has become so aggressive after not seeing him for a few days. He immediately grabbed Madam Jiao.

She was certainly not afraid of dealing with Madam Cai, but if she wanted to offend the general and the young lady behind her, she did not have the courage to do so.

Therefore, I could only suppress my anxiety and speak to Mrs. Cai in a gentle voice.

"Then please tell Madam Cai that I have something important to discuss with the young lady, and ask her to go to Yunjin Courtyard. Madam Wei has something to ask."

"Well, I'll go in and pass the message on."

After saying that, he asked several servants to block the door, like a row of stone sculptures, blocking Madam Jiao's view of the inside.

She was filled with indignation and was determined to get back at him if she had the chance, to avenge herself for today's humiliation.

Such a loud noise reached the ears of Du Jingyi in Xitang Courtyard, and naturally also reached the ears of Liu, the eldest sister-in-law in Fuqiu Courtyard.

She was originally chatting with her eighth sister Xue Niang, when she suddenly saw Mother Ou walk in with a unhappy look on her face. Her face, which originally had a hint of smile on it, suddenly became gloomy.

"What's wrong? Something happened?"

"Replying to the eldest young lady, Madam Jiao sent someone to invite the sixth young lady to Yunjin Courtyard, but I saw that there were so many people coming, so I'm afraid they might have bad intentions."

Ever since sister-in-law Liu had a quarrel with Shang Ji last time, she has never cared about the affairs of Dongyuan again.

She stayed in Fuqiu Courtyard and focused on her son's studies.

She only called her eighth sister Xue Niang from time to time to check on the progress of her needlework, but she never even left the courtyard once.

Now that someone had arrived, the urge to protect her cub was immediately aroused in her heart.

Just as I was about to get up, I felt Shang Ji's words that day lingering in my ears.

"Does it mean that everyone has to rely on the eldest sister-in-law to protect them?"

Yes, she has been wholeheartedly protecting Dongyuan over the years, but at most she can only protect the family fortune.

What happened to all these children after they were detained?

Thinking of this, the breath she had been holding in her throat relaxed, and she spoke weakly to Mother Ou.

"You take some people to watch from the dark. If the young lady goes with them, don't worry about it. If the young lady doesn't go, and Madam Jiao wants to force her way in, then go ahead and stop her. The face of Dongyuan will not allow them to be so presumptuous."

"yes."

After Mother Ou left, Shang Zhiping seemed to be hesitant to speak.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

He had personally witnessed the quarrel between his mother and his sixth uncle, so he could better understand his mother's actions at the moment.

For him, he could not accept that his sixth uncle, who had just returned, was blaming his mother.

He is a failure, which is his own problem and cannot be blamed on his mother. But he doesn't dare to tell his sixth uncle about it.

Therefore, I feel even more conflicted inside.

Sister-in-law Liu understood what her son was thinking, so she gave him a reassuring look and continued speaking to Shang Bamei.

"Today is busy, so you should stay in Fuqiu Courtyard."

"Sister-in-law, aren't you going to take a look?"

Xue Niang was a little confused and found it very strange to see her sister-in-law's calm face.

In the past, my sister-in-law was always the first to take the lead in such matters, but why did she change her temper today?

It’s a pity that my eldest sister-in-law is the most tight-lipped.

If there is something she doesn't want to say, even if you hit her with swords and spears, she may not tell you a few words of truth.

The sister-in-law fell silent, and Xueniang and Shang Zhiping also fell silent.

Xitang Courtyard is bustling at the moment.

After Mother Cai came to report what Nanny Jiao had said, Du Jingyi asked her to find more than ten strong and sturdy maids, and then took Yingtao and Lizhu with her and left the Xitang Courtyard.

Aunt Jiao, who was standing at the door, waited for a long time but no one came out, and she was getting anxious.

Just when I was thinking about whether to lead people to rush in, I saw Du Jingyi coming out.

As soon as he saw her, he naturally saw the people following her. After being slightly stunned, he spoke in an anxious tone.

"Young Madam, please go to Yunjin Courtyard with me quickly. Something big has happened."

"Oh? Isn't the biggest event in the mansion right now the birthday of my father-in-law? Madam Wei has taken good care of the rest. Is Madam Jiao exaggerating?"

In one sentence, both of Jiao Ma's worries were blocked.

He admitted that other major events had occurred, which meant that Mrs. Wei was incompetent and could not manage the household well.

Refusing to admit that any other major events had occurred means that she was spreading rumors.

It's really hard to mess with him.

So he could only suppress the arrogance in his heart and said to Du Jingyi.

"It's me who can't speak. Please forgive me, Madam. But it's true that the people from the third and fifth rooms are making a lot of noise. Madam Wei means that you will be the head of the family in the future. Go and take a look and give some advice."
