Chapter 45: The Complaint
"Miss Xia Zhu is sulking alone?" Sister Wang sat beside Xia Zhu and smiled flatteringly.
Sister Wang used to have Bao's second daughter-in-law to take care of her in Qiushuiyuan, but now that Bao's second daughter-in-law is gone, she has been looked down upon by other people since she was taught a lesson by Mo Ziyu last time, so she is very low-key now, and this Xia Zhu naturally doesn't take her seriously.
"Got it and asked?" Xia Zhu turned his head to the side irritably, "Where are you going to stay cool!"
"Xia Zhu was a person from the second lady's courtyard before, and I don't know how many people in the palace want to stutter, what kind of scenery it is, but now when I come to this small autumn water garden, I can't even look at it in my heart. Sister Wang said with a heartfelt feeling, "If the seventh lady and the second lady don't deal with each other, naturally they won't even like you and Miss Xia Yue, if you continue to stay in Qiushui Garden, you will only continue to be angry!"
She lowered her voice, leaned into Xia Zhu's ear and continued, "I don't know if Miss Xia Zhu heard about Bao's second daughter-in-law and Mama Kong?"
"A little bit of it. ”
"What a ruthless person this Seventh Lady is, this Second Daughter-in-law of Bao was beaten and blasted away, and that Grandma Kong was beaten to death!" Sister Wang said with a scared face, "Miss Xia Zhu, you are only afraid that you will be targeted by the Seventh Lady now, be careful yourself." ”
Xia Zhu's face changed: "What do you mean?"
Sister Wang looked left and right, and continued to whisper: "I'll give Xia Zhu a reminder to you, and listen to me, if you stay in this Qiushui Garden, I'm afraid that you won't be able to go out alone, and it's the right thing to beg the second lady to let you go back as soon as possible!"
"The second lady just asked me to come here to monitor the seventh lady's every move, how could you let me go back?" Xia Zhu rolled his eyes and said with an embarrassed expression.
"It's not easy to do!" Sister Wang raised her eyebrows, "You just do as I say, and the second lady will let you go back." ”
Xia Zhu listened to Sister Wang's words and felt that it made sense, so he hurriedly ran back to the second lady to complain. She knelt at the door and cried so much that she didn't know that she had been greatly wronged.
The second lady still had a mess to clean up, and she was impatient to see this girl, and while looking at the account book, she said perfunctorily: "Have you done all the things you have done?"
"The Seventh Lady seems to have discovered the identity of the slave and maid, but because the slave and maid are the people who were rewarded by the second lady to Qiushui Garden, they dare not drive the slave and maid out justifiably, so they condone the people of Qiushui Garden to bully the slave and maid!
Xia Zhu wiped her tears, secretly glanced at the second lady's face and continued: "Because of the accident of Qian'er in Qiushui Garden, the seventh lady was punished for kneeling for two hours, so today a little girl in Qiushui Garden made a sarcastic remark about the second lady, I couldn't be angry, I argued with her for a few words, I didn't expect her to beat me!" Xia Zhu cried even more aggrieved, "Not only that, that Qingling also relied on his identity to bully the slave maid, and felt that this matter was the slave's fault, and the slave maid should not be too talkative!" Second lady, the slave maid is your person, they don't take the slave and maid seriously, they just don't take you in their eyes, if you stay in Qiushui Garden, the slave and maid are afraid that they will not be alive to come back to see the second lady!"
The second lady's eyes narrowed slightly, and she asked coldly, "Do the people of Qiushui Yuan often talk about me from behind?"
Xia Zhu's eyes rolled, and he hurriedly said: "Yes, I said that the second lady is too domineering and vicious, and that the second lady will have your tongue pulled out in hell in the future!"
"Presumptuous!" the second lady slapped the table.
Xia Zhu was so frightened that he turned around and trembled: "Madame forgives, Madame forgives you!"
"She Jiang Liu thinks that after being favored by the prince for a day or two, she can do whatever she wants? I don't know that the princess has to be respectful when she sees me! If it weren't for her Jiang Liu's connivance, the subordinates of Qiushui Yuan would not dare to gossip about me behind my back, since she Jiang Liu has been so arrogant and doesn't put me in her eyes, why should I give her face!" The second lady Huo stood up suddenly, "Let's go to Qiushui Garden in person!"
When the second lady broke in with the maid and the mother-in-law, Mo Ziyu was reading a book under the window, and Lu Qiao hurriedly entered the room and said, "Girl, the second lady is here!"
"It's really strange, it's the first time she's coming to Qiushuiyuan, and she doesn't know what to do?"
"The second lady's face is not very good, but I am afraid that the person who comes is not good, and the girl is easy to deal with. Lu Qiao reminded, "Sister Qingling is already coping, with her here, the second lady doesn't dare to do anything with you." ”
Mo Ziyu put down the book, and then went to the living room, the second lady had already sat down, her face was cold, her eyes were cold, and there was a sneer on her lips, before Mo Ziyu could salute her, she said sarcastically: "Sister Jiang has such a big shelf, let me wait here for a long time!"
"Maybe it's late for the next person to report, and when I heard that the second lady was coming, I also hurriedly came to visit. Mo Ziyu said, "Come on, serve tea to the second lady." ”
The maid brought hot tea, and as soon as the second lady brought it up, she let the hot tea splash on the maid's body, and scolded: "It's so hot, you want to burn me to death!"
The maid endured the pain and said, "The slave will go and change the second lady for a new one." ”
Mo Ziyu was quite distressed, and asked Lu Qiao to take care of it, and then smiled slightly: "The second lady is afraid that she is in a bad mood, and she actually took someone to vent her anger." I don't know if it's a thing that doesn't have long eyes that makes you angry?"
"What's the matter, you are only allowed to take people out of anger, and I am not allowed to be angry?" The second lady sneered, "But there is one thing you are right, there is indeed a thing that is not long-sighted, and he can't even recognize his own position, and he thinks that he is really a pheasant and a phoenix, and he can empty his eyes!"
"Oh?" Mo Ziyu pretended not to understand, "The second lady is broad-minded, it's not worth being angry for such people." ”
The second lady called Xia Zhu in and said, "Which people have scolded me behind my back, you go and identify them one by one." Talking about the master behind his back is simply lawless, since you can't control the people below the Seventh Madam, I'll take care of it for you!"
Although Mo Ziyu is quite tolerant of the people of Qiushui Garden, he is still very strict, and there is no one in this Qiushui Garden who has talked about the master behind his back.
Xia Zhu was in trouble for a while, so he simply didn't do anything, and identified the people who had a holiday with him on weekdays.
Three maidservants were brought into the living room, standing in a row, not knowing why they had been called.
The second lady glanced at the three of them coldly: "It's just that you like to chew your tongue behind your back?"
