Xiao Xun was also leaning over, but she did not look at Miss Chen. She had her own thoughts. Most of the maids around her were from Madam's room. This medicine was most likely instructed by Madam. How could she be close to Miss Chen?
Miss Chen smiled and patted Xiao Xun's head.""What's going on? So weak?"
Xiao Xun smiled." I've been laughing with my sister all the way here. I'm a little weak now."”
Miss Chen looked at Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling was also smiling, but he said,""Xiao Ling knew that mother was busy, but he had something to disturb her, so he wanted to come over earlier and pay his respects to her before telling her about it.”As he spoke, he felt a little uneasy and guilty."Did you disturb Mother?"
"What's there to disturb Mother?”Miss Chen smiled, but deep down, she was confused. Xiao Ling had never spoken to her in such a tone before.
"What is it? Tell Mother."
Xiao Ling felt a little guilty, but he still forced a smile.""Speaking of which, Xiao Ling's servant girls are too reckless.”After saying that, Xiao Ling glanced at Xiao Xun beside him.""She clashed with Younger Sister's servant girl, her name is Lian Crisp.”
Miss Chen understood a little. She nodded and asked,"What's wrong with being crisp?"
"Actually, it's nothing. I just said a few words.”Xiao Ling smiled." I wanted to discuss it with you, sister. However, this servant girl was sent by my mother. Xiao Ling and sister wanted to ask my mother for advice on how to deal with her."”
Miss Chen understood Xiao Ling's intention. She was just here to complain to her.
It was just a method of retreating in order to advance.
This Lian Cui was still a servant girl in her own courtyard. If she was punished, then so be it. Now she had run to the madam to ask for forgiveness and ask for instructions on what to do next. Not only did this not slap the madam's face, but the madam must also deal with this matter seriously.
Otherwise, it would be this servant girl who would cause a ruckus.
Miss Chen looked at Xiao Ling sternly.""What did she say to you?"
Miss Chen's gaze then fell on Xiao Xun.""Then what did this servant say about your Third Older Sister?”
Xiao Xun did not speak. Her mind was still spinning. How could she care about these things?
Xiao Ling looked aggrieved." She said that I'm just a sugar cane girl and that I'm ungrateful and unloved. Why should I keep the ginseng soup? I got into an argument with my daughter's servant girl and threw the ginseng soup. She said that I'm not worthy of the ginseng soup."”
As she spoke, she looked up at Miss Chen with a hint of grievance and resentment."Mother, is your daughter really not worthy?”
Miss Chen was shocked and annoyed. This servant girl was really impudent! How dare she say such words? If others knew, then the entire capital would be poked in the spine. The harsh words of the cane girl would probably make people's ears grow calluses!
"If you're not worthy, who else is?" Miss Chen's expression was not good." That servant girl really deserves a beating. She actually spoke so arrogantly. She's really spoiled by you!" Xiao Xun!"
Miss Chen was furious. She looked at Xiao Xun and said coldly,""Nian, you've always been an obedient and sensible person. How did you raise such an insensible servant girl?”
Hearing this, Xiao Xun, who had been muddle-headed, seemed to have just woken up. She broke out in a cold sweat and immediately blamed him,""Mother, don't be angry. Xun Er knows her mistake. When Xun Er returns, I will definitely teach that girl a lesson.”
Miss Chen's expression relaxed. She was very satisfied with Xiao Xun's attitude.
"Alright, on account of Xun Er, I will be lenient.”Then, he looked at Granny Wang beside him."Go and call a few rough servant girls.”
After this beating, he would probably only have one breath left.
Xiao Xun took a deep breath, but she tried her best to remain calm.""Thank you mother for your mercy, thank you third jiejie.”
Miss Chen smiled at Xiao Ling." It's been hard on you. If you see any servant girls or old women who don't keep their eyes open in the future, you can just kill them and get them out of here. Since they've been called to your room, they're your servant girls. You don't have to inform me anymore."”
Xiao Ling smiled and nodded gratefully.
After chatting and laughing for a while, the other girls arrived one after another.
Later that day, Xiao Xun suddenly caught a cold.
However, she did not let Miss Chen know about it publicly. Instead, she sent a little girl close to her to call the imperial physician over. The imperial physician prescribed two sets of medicine for the cold. Xiao Xun was bedridden until dawn the next day.
When Su Yan came back to report this matter, she was smiling. After the young servant girl who had quarreled with Su Yan was beaten, Xiao Xun had no intention of caring about her at all. She was left to fend for herself in the woodshed and no one was allowed to investigate. She was afraid that she would lose her life.
"Miss, are you unhappy?" Su Yan said excitedly,"Young Lady, you don't know that when those maids see me now, they won't be as arrogant as before!”
Jinniang brought a cup of tea over.”
Her bare face was happy and would not listen to advice. She only smiled even more."Jinniang, look at you. If you continue to endure such a thing, they will bully you. If you ask me, I will let them know who is powerful.”
Su Yan smiled even more." Let them know. You're just too lazy to argue with them. Don't let them climb up and do whatever they want."”
Jin Niang did not say anything. She simply placed the tea in front of Xiao Ling.
Her bare-faced face became even more proud.
Moreover, this courtyard would probably be quiet for a while.
Su Yan was laughing all by herself for a long time, but she did not hear Xiao Ling's voice. She turned around and saw Xiao Ling holding a book, engrossed in it.
It seemed that the lady did not really listen to her.
Jinniang happened to come over.”
Xiao Ling held the book in his hand, but his mind was not on it.
Today's incident was a little strange. Although she had something on him, it was not to the extent that she had no room for retaliation. She had followed her wishes and even dealt with the young lady in an unusually efficient manner. Xiao Xun had not said a word, and she did not know if she would complain to Miss Chen. However, it seemed that she had invited a doctor to her courtyard to investigate the cup of medicine.
Xiao Ling rubbed his forehead gently. What was Miss Chen up to this time?
Xiao Ling put down his book, took the tea, and went to look at Jinniang.""Jinniang, do you have any thoughts on today's matter?”
Hearing this, Jin Niang frowned and thought,""This servant thinks that Taitai is really good to young miss and is willing to help young miss vent her anger like this. I'm afraid that we have misunderstood Taitai in the past.”
Xiao Ling nodded and looked at his bare face.
"This servant also thinks so. It seems that in the past when people said that Taitai did not dote on Young Lady, it was all these servant maids and old women who made it up.”
Xiao Ling's heart sank when he heard that.
This Miss Chen really had deep methods.
It seemed like she was just following his lead and growing his prestige, but in reality, she was putting on the posture of a loving mother, pushing all these things along with the current to increase her own reputation and prestige.
This Miss Chen was really someone who would not suffer a loss.
Moreover, this servant girl hated him from then on. Since she could be the dowry in Miss Chen's room, she naturally had some connections. She would probably have to be careful in the future.
If the Chen family had a good plan, they would gain both fame and fortune.
Even the servant maids who had been wronged by her side felt that they had misunderstood Furen. Who knew how many people in this residence had the same thoughts!
It was said that when Lian Cui was carried out today, his pants were stained with blood, scaring a group of young maids. Just as Su Yan had said, these maids probably wouldn't dare to act rashly again.
Of course, Xiao Ling knew that this was just the beginning.
In her previous life, she didn't even blame him. It was not bad, but wasn't it the same? It was just that he could not nurture it well, so he might as well kill it.
As Xiao Ling recalled these things, he remembered that Lian Cui was a glib talker. He was afraid that this matter would become her grievance in the future.
"Do you have any close sisters in this courtyard?”Xiao Ling sniffed the tea in his cup and turned to look at Su Yan and Jinniang.
Su Yan and Jin Niang were both otakus, and they had many good sisters since they were young. Even if they followed different masters now, they could still be considered to be able to make friends.
Su Yan nodded." I have some good friends. They can't do anything big, but I can take care of the small things."”
"Go and find a few people. During this period of time, keep an eye on the servant girls in Madam's room, and then carefully watch the servant girls in Fifth Young Lady's room.”
Xiao Ling put down his teacup without taking a sip.""Is there anyone you can trust?"
Jin Niang frowned and shook her head. Although she had more sisters, they were never bold. She could take a look at Fifth Young Lady's room. If she went to Madam's place and was discovered, she was afraid that she would give it up.
However, Su Yan thought about it and nodded with a smile."Young Lady can rest assured. This servant knows two people. One is in Taitai's room and the other is in Fifth Young Lady's room. They can help Young Lady and have played with this servant since young.”
"Go and tell them." Xiao Ling smiled.”
Then, he got up and took out a jewelry box from the dressing table. He took out two pearl jewelry and handed it to Su Yan."Su Yan, give these two jewelry to those two servant girls. We can't let them do things for free.”
She picked up a jade hairpin and a jade bracelet and gave them to Jinniang and Su Yan.
Xiao Ling had never mistreated the two girls by his side.
Su Yan took the things and smiled." Miss, don't worry. It's getting late today. I'll talk to my two sisters tomorrow and ask them to be careful."”
Xiao Ling was temporarily relieved, but he had a nagging feeling that something was going to happen. He let Jinniang help him back to his bed.
It was getting late.
A maid dressed in green, Bright Brocade, came over from a small path and approached the woodshed from afar.
