"Ye Jintang, this maid is so arrogant, are you going to do anything about it or not?"
Su Xuerou got up with the help of her maid, and her eyes were filled with hatred when she saw Ye Jintang.
Why should we interfere?
Ye Jintang countered, looking at Su Xuerou and saying each word clearly, "Besides, I don't think my people have done anything wrong."
"Su Xuerou, you're quite capable, but you were only imprisoned for a few days before being released."
"It seems you have quite a powerful backer."
Green Lotus chimed in, “Miss, this person just said she is the second young lady of the Minister’s mansion, but I remember that the Minister’s mansion only has one legitimate daughter.”
"Nonsense, my young lady is the second young lady of the Minister's mansion, but she has been kept out of the public eye all these years."
While defending Su Xuerou, Cui'er addressed the two of them.
"So you were born to the mistress of the Minister's household?"
Seeing Su Xuerou's confident demeanor, Ye Jintang asked again.
Su Xuerou's expression darkened, and Cui'er, who was standing beside her, stopped speaking.
"Since she wasn't born to the mistress, then she must be an illegitimate child."
“Su Xuerou, you are a concubine’s daughter. If you were a young lady of the Minister’s mansion, you should go back to your mansion instead of staying here without any status. Don’t you understand such a simple principle?”
Su Xuerou's face flushed red from Ye Jintang's words. She clenched her fists tightly, her eyes filled with resentment.
For her, Ye Jintang's words were undoubtedly the greatest humiliation she could ever receive.
"Ye Jintang, don't go too far. This is the Marquis's residence. Brother Mu Bai promised me that he would marry me soon. Even if you are the mistress, my status as a concubine is no different from yours."
"How can there be no difference? A concubine is still a secondary wife. Su Xuerou, even if you had entered the household before, you would still have to behave yourself."
“Just like now…” Ye Jintang’s eyes narrowed slightly, “Someone come here!”
Soon after the command was given, two guards came running at the sound.
They stood outside the courtyard and looked at Ye Jintang. "Madam, what are your instructions?"
"Throw them out of the Marquis's residence!"
Su Xuerou's eyes widened, never expecting Ye Jintang to make such a decision.
"How dare you!" Su Xuerou rebuked, "I am, after all, the Marquis's beloved, and also the second young lady of the Minister's mansion, Ye Jintang. Even the Marquis has never let me leave, so what right do you have to make this decision?"
"Madam, should we report Miss Su's departure to the Marquis before making a decision?"
One of the guards looked at Ye Jintang, his expression slightly hesitant.
"What, does my word as the mistress no longer carry weight?"
Although Ye Jintang spoke softly, his words carried a strong sense of intimidation.
"This is the inner quarters, and I am in charge of everything here. You should think carefully about who the master is."
Ultimately, the original owner had established considerable prestige during her two years in the Marquis's mansion, but those who intended to help her were later dealt with by Su Xuerou.
However, the point in time when she transmigrated was when Su Xuerou had just entered the Marquis's mansion, and then a series of events happened. Considering Jiang Mubai's furious attitude, and the fact that she was still able to stand here unharmed.
These people should then understand who carries more weight.
“I don’t like to repeat myself. If you can’t make a decision, you don’t need to stay in the Marquis’s residence starting tomorrow.”
Upon hearing Ye Jintang's words, the two guards dared not hesitate any longer.
Even if this Miss Su were to marry into the family, she would still be no match for the mistress in terms of status.
"Miss Su, please leave."
The guards were ultimately polite to Su Xuerou.
Su Xuerou was furious with Ye Jintang's actions.
"Ye Jintang, aren't you afraid that Brother Mu Bai will divorce you if he finds out you're doing this?!"
"Divorce me?" Ye Jintang scoffed.
"Even if what you say is true, it should be me who divorces him."
"However, what happens afterward is none of your business as a mistress."
After Ye Jintang finished speaking, he looked at the two guards.
"You keep an eye on the two of them as they leave the Marquis's residence. If they disappear from the residence or go somewhere else, then you don't need to stay in the Marquis's residence."
"yes……"
"Miss Su, please leave."
"Miss, why don't we..." Cui'er noticed that more and more maids were gathering around them, and their gazes were all on them, so she couldn't help but whisper a suggestion.
"Shut up!"
Su Xuerou snorted coldly, determined not to leave today. She wanted to see what Ye Jintang could do to her.
The two guards were in a dilemma when they saw that Su Xuerou was standing still and had no intention of leaving.
On one side is the lady, and on the other is the future marquis's concubine. Offending either of them will not end well.
At this moment, Jiang Mubai received the news and rushed over.
Upon seeing the guards appear, Jiang Mubai's face darkened, and he angrily shouted at the two men, "What are you doing!"
"Brother Mu Bai..." The moment Su Xue Rou saw Jiang Mu Bai appear, it was as if she had seen a savior. She bit her lower lip and looked pitiful as she said to Jiang Mu Bai, "Brother Mu Bai, I came to pay my respects to my sister, but I didn't expect that my sister would have someone kick me out as soon as I arrived."
"Kick them out?" Jiang Mubai hesitated upon hearing this.
"Ye Jintang, is what Xue Rou said true?"
After saying that, Jiang Mubai stared intently at Ye Jintang, wishing he could tear her to pieces.
“That’s right. Su Xuerou brought people into my courtyard. What’s wrong with me kicking her out?”
"Madam, you just said that you would drive our second young lady out of the Marquis's mansion, and that your word is law in this mansion."
Seeing Jiang Mubai arrive, Cui'er, like Su Xuerou, felt emboldened and spoke in a sarcastic tone.
"My poor young lady wanted to apologize to you when she learned of your return, but she was treated like this."
"An apology?" Ye Jintang sneered. "So you're admitting you bribed people to cause trouble at Huishengtang?"
"I..." Cui'er realized she had said something wrong and immediately felt a little guilty.
Su Xuerou glanced at Cui'er with displeasure, then said to Ye Jintang, "Sister, isn't that a misunderstanding?"
"Since it's all in the past, why bother holding a grudge?"
Su Xuerou lowered her head and said, "In the end, it was my fault. If you still don't feel relieved, I'm willing to kneel down and apologize to you."
Jiang Mubai looked at Su Xuerou, whose body was trembling, and felt a pang of pity for her.
Xue Rou is truly a kind woman. Even though she has been bullied like this by Ye Jintang, this vicious woman, she is still willing to apologize and even kneel down.
If Yip Kam-tong were sensible, she shouldn't have bothered with this matter anymore.
Unexpectedly, Ye Jintang chuckled upon hearing Su Xuerou's words, trying to play the victim in front of Jiang Mubai and others.
This method might work for others, but it won't have any effect on her.
Su Xuerou kept glancing at Ye Jintang out of the corner of her eye. No matter what choice this bitch made, she would be branded as jealous, and she would never have a good life in the future.
Besides, with Jiang Mubai around, how could he really make him kneel down?
