This girl was famous for being crafty and mean, and was extremely loyal to her master. With such a person, Mei'e was like a tiger with wings. If he didn't get rid of Mei'e's military advisor, there would be endless trouble.
"You are the servant girl Qiao Ling who is with Aunt Mei'e?”Aunt Du asked with narrowed eyes.
"Yes, this servant. This servant pays respects to Aunt Du.”Qiao Ling knew that Aunt Du was pregnant and the Matriarch's attitude towards her had changed, so Qiao Ling did not dare to act rashly.
"You were the one who started today's incident?”Aunt Du asked.
"Reporting to Aunt Du, it's not this servant, it's just that…Old Master was waiting to eat the stewed flower gum, so the kitchen maid temporarily took your pot away, which is why it's so unpleasant.”Qiao Ling avoided the main point.
"Who touched my pot?" Aunt Du raised her chin and asked.
Everyone just lowered their heads and stood there without saying a word.
"Are you all mute? I haven't been in charge of the affairs of the residence for a few days, and you've all been bossy and domineering. You even dare to bully Granny Wang in my room. She's already old, but she's being attacked by all of you. Now you want to slander her for hitting people. I want to see what benefits Qiao Ling has given you.”Aunt Du said loudly.
"Aunt Du, this is Miss Qiao Ling's business. We servants are only following Miss's orders. Miss Qiao Ling brought us some hand warming things and also some things that the master gave us. We were greedy for money and took something to help Miss Qiao Ling speak. In fact, it was Qiao Ling who took your pot down so that Aunt Mei'e could eat the stewed flower gum quickly. We don't know if Master wants to eat it.”The old woman saw that the situation had changed and immediately stood beside Aunt Du to speak.
"Matriarch, look at these servants. If he didn't ask properly, he might get something out of it. Granny Wang usually had a loud voice and liked to cause trouble, but she wasn't a bad person. How could she easily hit someone? Wasn't it because of me and the child in my stomach that I got into a conflict with the servants? The Matriarch chased Granny Wang out because she was eager to protect her master. How could I be at ease and protect the fetus?”Aunt Du's tone was filled with pity and grievance.
"You servants really come in waves. Just now, Eldest Young Miss asked for a long time, but you all insisted that Ji Xunyuan wanted to eat something, so you took Aunt Du's pot down. Wasn't it too much to bite back now?”The Matriarch was being played around by the servants and her face was ashen.
"Matriarch, we are telling the truth. Actually, it's just a matter of going up and down. There's no need…"
"What do you mean you don't need it? I can wait, but can the child in my stomach wait? I wanted to have a good rest today, but you guys disturbed my peace. " Ouch…" Aunt Du frowned and cried out in pain.
"Where is the doctor?" The Matriarch asked anxiously.
A lean man in his fifties bent over and came before the Matriarch.
"Greetings, Matriarch. This old man…"
"There's no need to be so formal. Quickly show Aunt Du what's going on.”The Matriarch was anxious.
The doctor gently took his pulse without saying a word.
The room was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. It seemed that Aunt Du was very interested in this child.
"Reporting to the Matriarch, Aunt Du's body is fine. She had been pregnant for more than a month, but recently, she had been so angry that she could not sleep at night. Looking at her pulse, she should be anxious. If she did not take care of her body, it would probably affect the child in her stomach.”The doctor said worriedly with a gloomy face.
"Do you want to eat some supplements? What do you think is good? It wasn't easy for something good to happen in the Duke Song Residence again. We all hope that this child will be born safely.”The Matriarch looked at the doctor eagerly from the side.
"Actually, you don't need to replenish your body too much. Just treat it normally. If possible, eating some supplements could make Aunt Du energetic. However, a heart disease still needed a heart medicine to cure it. Aunt Du's mood had not been very good recently, which led to her liver qi stagnation. If he could open his heart, it would naturally heal without medicine.”The doctor said with a smile.
"Ji Xunyuan, call this kid over! He spent every day lingering in Mei'e's room, but he didn't even know that his concubine had a child.”The Matriarch frowned and ordered Haitang to call for help.
Haitang's face was still imprinted with Aunt Du's handprint, but she had no choice but to go to Yin Xue Yuan to look for Ji Xunyuan.
"This servant will go now. Matriarch, don't worry." Haitang regained her composure. She looked at Aunt Du without batting an eyelid and did not speak again.
Walking on the path, Haitang clenched her fists tightly. She would not tolerate this slap today, but now was not the time. There would be plenty of time in the future to slowly settle the score with her.
When the maidservants saw Haitang's dark expression, they only greeted her timidly and immediately ran out of sight.
Haitang looked at the backs of the girls and knew that her path was becoming more and more difficult. If she wanted to become the wife of the Duke of Song, she had to have a child.
Aunt Du could get pregnant again even when she was old. Why couldn't she get pregnant at such a young age?
Chant Snow Court was filled with laughter and laughter.
The hatred in Haitang's heart was like boiling oil, constantly boiling. However, for the sake of the position of Madam, she had to endure all this humiliation.
"Master, Aunt Mei'e, Miss Haitang is here.”A little girl reminded him softly.
"Let her in!" Ji Xunyuan said calmly.”
Aunt Mei'e was unhappy, but she couldn't have any objections.
"This servant greets master, Mei'e, YiNiang, and two masters, Jin An.”Haitang lowered her eyes. There was still a scarlet handprint on her face.
Ji Xunyuan was shocked and had already stood up, but he was pulled back by Aunt Mei'e.
"What is Master doing? Miss Haitang has just arrived, and you're already avoiding her. It doesn't seem appropriate.”The words that came out of Mei'e's mouth had a different taste.
Ji Xunyuan looked at Mei'e awkwardly and gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her.
Haitang briefly explained what had happened and successfully aroused Mei'e's suspicion.
Granny Wang was a bossy servant. Just because she was Aunt Du's nanny, she bossed around the other servants. Mei'e was being pampered, so how could Qiao Ling, the little girl beside her, bear this anger? The two of them were bound to fight. However, Mei'e didn't expect that the flower gum given to her by her master was actually the fuse of the whole thing.
"Do I have to step in for such a small matter?”Ji Xunyuan was getting impatient.
"Old Master, without Qiao Ling serving by my side, I really feel uncomfortable all over! This girl had a calm personality and would never suddenly lose her manners and fight with Granny Wang. There must be something hidden. Please go and take a look. Beg for mercy in front of the Matriarch and let this girl go so that I can sleep soundly.”Mei'e kept acting coquettishly, her tone pleading.
