"Go and find Fu Jin."
This kind of thing still needs to be discussed with Fu Jin, after all, she is Fu Jin.
"Yes, I'll go right away."
Su Peisheng also knew that all matters in the backyard were handled by Fu Jin.
Just when Su Peisheng was about to step out, he was stopped by the Fourth Master.
"Forget it, I'll go there myself later."
Fu Jin is still pregnant, so I'd better go and talk to her later.
If she doesn't want to deal with it now that she is pregnant, then she can leave it to Su Peisheng.
After saying this, he stood up and walked towards the inner room.
Shannai had just finished feeding Wen Mianmian the medicine when he saw his master coming in, so he took the medicine bowl and walked out.
As soon as Su Peisheng walked to the door and stood still, he saw Fu Jin leading Wu Gege towards him.
Ouch, why is Fu Jin here?
Upon seeing this, Su Peisheng hurriedly walked up to the concubine and bowed to greet her.
"Eunuch Su, is the master still in there?"
Su Peisheng was a capable eunuch beside the Fourth Master, so the lady spoke in a very kind tone.
"Yes, I will go in and report first."
"Hey, thank you, Eunuch Su."
Su Peisheng trotted in to report.
The Fourth Master was at Wen Mianmian's bedside, and just as he was about to get up, he heard Su Peisheng say that Fu Jin and Wu Gege were coming.
When he heard the name Wu Gege, the Fourth Master frowned immediately.
"Let them in."
The Fourth Master glanced at Wen Mianmian who was still in a coma and walked out.
At this time, Fu Jin and Wu Gege also walked in.
Wu lowered her head, not daring to look at her master.
"Greetings to the master."
The Fourth Master walked over to Lady Fu Jin and gave her a little support.
The Fourth Master of the Wu family didn't even look at her, let alone shout.
This made Wu very panicked. She didn't dare to speak and could only kneel down obediently.
"Why are you here when you're pregnant?" The Fourth Master helped her sit down in front of the couch.
"I heard that Sister Wen fell into the water, so I wanted to come and take a look." Fu Jin sat on the couch and spoke softly.
Then Fu Jin looked at the Fourth Master again and said, "I have figured out the whole story, so I brought her here."
When Wu heard Fu Jin mention her, she quickly explained, "Master, I know I was wrong. I didn't mean to do that. I was just careless. I really didn't mean to hurt Wen Gege."
The Fourth Master's sharp eyes swept over her, and he snorted coldly at her, "You were careless, why did you run away? Why didn't you ask someone to rescue her at that time?"
If he had not come to the backyard and gone to the lotus pond at that time, it is unknown whether Wen would be alive now.
At this time, she could just say it was an accident and let the matter go easily.
Is it true that in the future, whenever someone harms someone else, they can just say it was an accident and let the matter go without a careless thought?
What happened to the Fourth Prince's Mansion after that?
Seeing that she was trembling violently when she heard this, her eyes were a little evasive.
What else didn't the Fourth Master understand? Even if it wasn't intentional at the time, Wen's fall into the water was indeed related to her.
Moreover, when Wen fell into the water, Wu did not save her, which shows that Wu is not a simple person.
"I... I was just too scared at the time. Yes, that's right. Master, I was just too scared at the time, so... so..."
"So you see that there's no one around and think that Wen's death has nothing to do with you, right?" The Fourth Master could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and slammed the table hard with his hand.
This scared the lady sitting next to him.
Wu, who was kneeling on the ground, was even more frightened and lowered her head.
"No, it's not like that..."
The Fourth Master didn't want to listen to her nonsense at all.
In short, it is a fact that she harmed others, and he cannot let her go easily.
"How do you think this matter should be handled, Madam?" The Fourth Master turned his sharp black eyes towards Madam.
When Fu Jin saw the sharp look in her master's eyes, she knew that this matter could not be easily revealed, so she spoke carefully.
"I think nothing serious has happened to Wen Gege, and Sister Wu has now admitted her mistake. How about fining him half a year's salary and confining him to his house for half a year? What do you think, sir?"
When Fu Jin said this, her tone was cautious. She didn't know whether her master was satisfied with her handling of the situation.
She felt that nothing had happened to the Wen family, and that it was not a good idea to make a big deal out of this matter.
Although Wu was wrong, she already knew it, didn't she?
So she felt that a six-month salary deduction and house arrest were already very serious punishments.
After all, she was under house arrest and could only stay in her own yard. She could not go anywhere, could not serve her master, and could not attend any dinner party in the mansion.
Originally, she planned to punish her by grounding her house for three months and deducting her salary for half a year, but when she saw the look in her master's eyes, she extended the time a little.
This was a very severe punishment for a princess who had just entered the palace less than three months ago.
After hearing this, the Fourth Master frowned, obviously dissatisfied with this way of handling the matter.
While twirling the jade ring on his thumb, he looked at Fu Jin and said, "Fu Jin, do you think what Wu Shi did is a small matter?"
The reason why he asked the concubine's opinion was that he wanted to give her enough dignity as a concubine.
After all, all matters big and small in the backyard are handled by Fu Jin.
If he directly convicted Wu, then the prestige of the concubine would be damaged, which would be detrimental to her ability to manage the backyard.
"But Sister Wen is fine, isn't she? I'm thinking that Wu has just arrived in the mansion. If the punishment is too severe, it will be bad for Sister Wen's reputation if it gets out."
