These days, the Xiao manor was not peaceful. Madam Xie was fully focused on the aftershocks caused by the green willow. On the one hand, she was busy with the vacancy of the nanny candidate caused by Nanny Feng. On the other hand, the Xiao manor was caught in a whirlpool of public opinion and was once again ridiculed by the masses. She could not hide in the manor. Even if she had the energy, she would not ask about any rumors about the Xiao manor.
Even Andu’s one-month-old banquet was hastily held, and the family’s thoughts were not there.
Even if the servants heard the rumors, they would not expose the matter to Madam Xie. As for the other people, let’s not talk about whether there was anyone who deliberately wanted to disgust others and gossiped in front of her. Madam Xie did not give anyone the chance to disgust them at all. She stayed in the residence obediently and did not participate in any banquet or invite them. There was a vacuum in social interaction.
When she suddenly heard Xiao Jingai’s accusation, Mrs. Xie was so agitated that she raised her teacup and threw it at Xiao Jingai. Fortunately, she was so excited that her hands trembled. She did not have enough strength and only hit Xiao Jingai half a foot in front of her. The tea splashed onto her dress.
“Shut up! It’s fine if you’re morally corrupt, but you still want to slander me and slander your sister!”
“Sister has always been clear about love and hate. If auntie doesn’t believe me, you can ask sister if I’m slandering her.”Xiao Jing ‘ai lowered her eyebrows and said softly.
Xiao Baoxin sneered. This guy was really desperate. She knew that no one would believe her no matter what she said in front of these people, so she might as well not explain. You said that I was immoral, but your daughter was even more immoral than me. She even threw herself into his arms.
So what if he threw himself at her? At the very least, Xie Xian did not have any engagement with anyone, nor did he propose marriage to any residence. The relationship between the man and woman was very pure.
“I didn’t bring you back to the residence to listen to your nonsense.”
Then she said to Madam Xie,”If Yang Shao invites someone else, 1’11 have to trouble you to reject him. I don’t dare to accept such a man.””
Madam Xie’s heart instantly turned cold.
It wasn’t because she rejected Yang Shao’s proposal. How could her own daughter not understand? She avoided the important and ignored Second Lady’s words. How could she not know what it meant?
It was clearly what he said.
However, with Madam Xiao and Xiao Jing ‘ai around, she couldn’t embarrass her daughter. She gritted her teeth and said,”
“He still dares to come? Our family doesn’t dare to get close to such a person.”She was considered to have some self-restraint if she didn’t beat him up. She had clearly proposed to her daughter, yet she had allowed another young lady to enter her house. She was not a good person either!
” And Second Lady,” Xiao Baoxin said to Madam Xiao,””Second Niangzi is stubborn. In order to prevent her from doing anything immoral, I would like to trouble Aunt to watch over her and not let her go out later.”
Madam Xie and Madam Xiao looked at each other and arranged their work well.
Xiao Baoxin said,” Second Mother dared to do such a thing, but none of the servants around her advised her. Some of them even ran around to help Second Mother. As long as these people are still around, Second Mother will not be able to control herself. Send them all to the manor and change a batch for Second Mother.””
This meant that Xiao Jing ‘ai was under house arrest.
However, this time was different from the last time when Madam Xiao had asked her to stay in the hospital by saying that she was ill. The last time, it was only Xiao Jing ‘ai who had the intention, but Xiao Baoxin had blown the wind over. This time, they had blocked the person in the room with conclusive evidence.
Xiao Jing ‘ai’s eyes were filled with poison. In his previous life, Xiao Baoxin was like this, high and mighty, guiding the country.
She could abandon anyone else and buy them in the future, but Bi Yu was different. In both her past and present lives, there was only one person who was loyal to her and never left her!
However, it was Xiao Baoxin who chased Bi Yu away from her side twice.
In her previous life, she was married, so the dowry should be in her hands. Although the He family was in chaos, they were not short of money. When she moved from the He family to the Yang residence, her dowry had always been in her hands.
However, it was different now. She, Yun Ying, was not married. All these years, her dowry had been in Madam Xiao’s hands. She could not get her hands on it at all. He didn’t even have a place to place Jasper.
“Xiao Baoxin, if you’re targeting me, then come at me. Why make things difficult for some servants?”
“Second Mother, who are you yelling at? There are still elders around, yet you’re shouting at me and calling me by my name. 1 think you’re not only thinking about love, but your brain is also fried, right?”Madam Xie was unhappy. She knew how to seduce her future brother-in-law at such a young age. She didn’t admit her mistake and still shouted. In the past, she thought she was gentle and demure. She was really blind!
How was she gentle and demure? It was obvious that there was a woman hidden inside, and she was a slut.
Madam Xiao’s face was filled with shame. Although she was not her biological mother, she was still her stepmother in name. She was the one who was criticized for not educating herself well.
“Second Mother, shut up! Is there any place for you to speak here? It seems that 1 have indulged you in the past. Men, bring Second Lady back!”
Madam Xie said,””Although you are Second Mother’s mother, you did not crawl out of your stomach. In the past, I knew your difficulties. However, Second Mother had done such a disgraceful thing today. If she did not correct it in time, it would only harm her in the future.”
“It was my fault for not discovering Second Mother in time. As the matriarch of the household, 1 naturally have the responsibility. 1 will choose the people around Second Mother and send them to you.”
“Second Mother is still young. No matter what, we have to teach her well, right?”
Madam Xiao was unhappy at first, but after listening to it, she felt that it was better.
At the very least, Xiao Jingai’s second son would be dealt with by the eldest son. This would save him the trouble of finding out that she had mistreated Xiao Jing ‘ai in the future.
This time, it’s the eldest branch who can’t stand it and wants to discipline your daughter.
Madam Xiao had no intention of managing the family to begin with. She just ate and waited for death every day. It was good that she had arranged for the others.
The two madams of the Xiao family hit it off immediately. They did not care about Xiao Jing ‘ai’s thoughts and directly escorted her back to her courtyard.
In half a day, all the people in and out of the courtyard had changed.
What jade? Xiao Jing ‘ai didn’t even see her before she left.
“Xiao Baoxin, one day I’ll trample you under my feet!””
“Second Lady, you’d better save it. With our Eldest Lady’s martial arts to protect her body, she would break your leg before you could step on her.”Cai Wei giggled as she pulled the curtain from the outer room and entered, followed by two manservants each carrying a thick stack of books.
“These are the Buddhist scriptures that my wife loves to read. The Book of Filial Piety, the Three Character Classic… All kinds of scriptures. Furen said that Second Niangzi’s nature was not bad, and she might have been attracted to something. If she had nothing to do, it was better to copy more Buddhist scriptures to eliminate the filth. She would be fine.”
” Every day, 1 will copy 3,000 words of Buddhist scriptures. After 1 am done, I will send them to Madam. If there are no 3,000 words, there will be no food for dinner at night.”
“I’m the county head conferred by the emperor!” Xiao Jing ‘ai was furious. How dare you treat me so harshly!”
Cai Wei was still smiling,”Furen said that this was not mistreating the County Head, but for the good of the County Head.” If the Emperor finds out about the County Head’s actions, I’m afraid he’ll only blame our Furen for being too gentle and not being more severe.”
“.. This servant will not disturb Second Lady copying the scriptures.”With that, he turned around and left. “Furen said that copying scriptures will start from today.”
Xiao Jing loved falling.
Just say that she would starve for the whole day! It was already late, and even if he had eight hands, he wouldn’t be able to finish writing a 3,000-word Buddhist scripture before dinner!
He had lived to the age of fifty, yet he had suffered a huge setback in the gutter!
