As soon as Hui'er spoke, several more people rushed forward, grabbed the nanny, dragged her out, and placed her next to Zhu Shi, where they began to beat her.
The screams outside were incessant. Both Yao and Susu were frightened, especially Yao, who was very worried that He Jiuniang would get into trouble because of this. She hurriedly said, "Madam, this won't..."
"Don't worry, killing her would be too lenient for her, especially since I don't intend to take their lives."
How could we let such an annoying person die so quickly? Of course, she needs to be dealt with properly!
When Yao heard that no one would die, she breathed a sigh of relief. It felt so good to have someone backing her up. In all her years, besides her parents, only He Jiuniang had treated her like this.
Somewhat excited, but mostly ironic.
She and He Jiuniang only met today. Even if it was for Susu's sake, she wouldn't have gone to such lengths, but He Jiuniang did.
Compared to her two husbands and her brothers, she was far better.
So why is that? If someone as unrelated as He Jiuniang can treat her like this, why are her blood relatives making things difficult for her and even trying to cut off her path to survival?
Thinking about this made her even sadder, so she shook her head and tried to banish those thoughts.
From now on, she will no longer care about the troubles at home. With the help of her wife, she will live a good life by her own abilities and raise Susu to adulthood. That will be enough for her.
Logically speaking, Susu is He Jiuniang's goddaughter, so she could actually address He Jiuniang as a sister. However, she always insists on calling He Jiuniang "Madam," which reflects her respect and gratitude towards He Jiuniang.
She was unwilling to be treated as an equal sister to He Jiuniang, so she was willing to lower herself and call He Jiuniang "Madam" to constantly remind herself not to forget the kindness He Jiuniang had shown to her and her daughter, and to repay it in the future.
He Jiu Niang had no idea that Yao Shi had so much on her mind, and she took Su Su out to watch the excitement.
Zhu was beaten so badly she didn't even have the strength to scream, but she didn't forget to plead for herself, whispering that she would never dare to do it again.
When He Jiuniang came out, she waved her hand, and the servants stopped what they were doing and waited for her to speak.
"Madam Hu, do you know why I hit you?"
She looked down at Zhu Shi with a smile in her eyes. Seeing Zhu Shi beaten like this, she was in a good mood.
Madam Zhu felt like she was about to suffocate; her whole body ached terribly, and she couldn't move. She could only open her mouth and say with difficulty, "It was my fault for accidentally breaking the imperial gift. I didn't mean to. Please, Madam, have mercy..."
After being beaten for so long, she finally stopped being stubborn and dared not blame Susu anymore.
"Madam Hu just said she didn't break it herself, so why is she admitting it now? Could it be that she's pretending to be ignorant and deliberately trying to fool me?"
"No! No! No..."
Zhu hurriedly denied it; she only wanted to live and dared not be stubborn anymore.
Looking at her wretched appearance, He Jiuniang sneered, "Someone like you wants to educate my goddaughter? You should take a piss and see if you're even qualified. By the way, I heard that you two are vicious and even used needles on my precious daughter. Hui'er, come here, arrange it for them."
As she spoke, He Jiuniang pulled Susu back a little to make room for Hui'er.
Hui'er had already prepared a very thick long needle. Upon hearing He Jiu Niang's instructions, she stepped forward and showed off the prepared needle.
It has to be said that Hui'er is quite ruthless. She held the needles between her fingers and then flashed them out one after another, making them look like Wolverine's claws. This scared the master and servant, who were already half-dead from being beaten, into fainting.
But fainting doesn't mean they can escape this predicament. Hui'er chuckled and said, "This will just wake them up!"
As he spoke, a row of gleaming silver needles were inserted into their buttocks.
"Ahhh..."
"Ahhhhh..."
Two painful cries rang out at the same time, startling the birds that were courting in the tree.
He Jiuniang picked at her ear and said with disgust, "You're disturbing me, quickly shut your mouth!"
As he was speaking, he happened to see Madam Yao standing next to him and said, "Sister Yao, you go."
Madam Yao was taken aback. Was she supposed to go and shut Madam Zhu up?
she……
I'm a little hesitant...
"Hurry up, don't just stand there, that voice is awful, it's going to scare Susu to tears."
She urged her on, and little Susu looked up at He Jiuniang, wanting to explain, "Mother, I'm not hurt..."
Before she could finish speaking, He Jiuniang tapped her lips with a finger and said earnestly, "No, you're scared."
Su Su blinked and nodded; she understood.
then……
She grabbed He Jiuniang's leg and started wailing, "Waaah, I'm so scared! Mother, please gag them!"
Yao was taken aback by her daughter's dramatic change and was momentarily stunned before she realized what was happening. She took a smelly rag from a maid and stepped forward to gag the two men.
He Jiuniang was finally satisfied: "Yes, stuff it all in, don't leave any gaps."
"Be a little rougher, no, you're being too gentle."
"Oh no, Cai'er, you teach her. She's new and her skills aren't very strong yet!"
...
Finally, with Cai'er's help, Yao managed to gag the two men with a fierce but forced manner, then looked at He Jiuniang somewhat awkwardly.
He Jiuniang comforted her, "It's alright, it's alright. It's your first time, so it's normal to be unfamiliar with it. You'll get used to it with more practice."
The master and servant, still being pricked by needles on the ground: ? ? ?
What's the meaning?
Is this a sign that they're not going to let them off the hook?
Zhu fainted again, her eyes rolling back. Hui'er beckoned, and a servant came forward with a bucket of water and poured water on them without any mercy.
The water was salted, and the fresh wound felt incredibly irritated by the salt water.
But He Jiuniang kindly comforted her, "Don't worry, this salt water disinfects and sterilizes, which is good for wound healing!"
Zhu's eyes were bloodshot, she could no longer pretend, her eyes were full of hatred. How could He Jiuniang, that bitch, treat her like this!
Before she arrived, she was still dreaming of living the life of a wealthy socialite, but in less than an hour, her dream was shattered.
Ironically, at noon she was comforting Hu Sheng, saying that they could rise to prominence with the help of this little bastard, but unexpectedly they ran into a brick wall.
However, she dared not offend He Jiu Niang, not even now. So she could only stare intently at Yao Shi. Even if she died, she would not let this bitch go!
They kept her around because they felt she posed no threat and had a skill that could be appreciated if she made clothes or embroidered patterns. People would also compliment her when she wore them out. Later, they learned that her bastard child with her ex-husband had been adopted by the Lu family as a godparent, so they thought they could make good use of her. But they never expected to be caught off guard.
That wretched woman, Yao, must not be allowed to live, or she will lose her life.
When she gets back, she must make sure Yao is dead!
