Chapter 9: Wang Niang's Careful Strategy
With a snap, the wooden stick broke in two, Yue'er's body trembled in pain, and her face turned pale.
Steward Mo frowned and said, "This stick doesn't work, I'll go change it!" ”
Seeing Yue'er's painful appearance, Wang Niang waved her hand and snorted: "Forget it, she can't walk anymore like this, and Second Master Liu can't take a lame aunt to the banquet." She said to everyone again: "In the future, no one will be allowed to see Yue'er without my permission, if something happens to her, I will only ask you!" ”
The people knelt down together.
Yue'er stroked her right leg, which was already swollen up a lot, although it was not broken, it was also very seriously injured, and she couldn't help but fall with tears.
Wang Niang was like a dog to Liu Erye, but like a tiger to Yue'er, she turned her head to look at the pothos, and said lightly: "Luthos, you know what happened in the morning, why don't you report it to me?" ”
Lu Pothos hurriedly knelt down and said: "Before the slave and maid had time to report to the mother, Second Master Liu brought someone here, it was the slave and the maid who were wrong, please punish the mother." In fact, she was very happy in her heart, and she was indescribably happy to see Yue'er being punished, but now is not the time to show it.
Wang Niang flicked her sleeves and said viciously: "You are also an old man who follows me, this time I will write it down for you, and next time, fight together!" ”
"Yes, yes, thank you for your forgiveness, the slave knows her mistakes."
"Alright, let's all disperse."
Wang Niang waved her hand, Steward Mo left with everyone, even the green pothos and the treasure beads walked away, Wang Niang squatted down, as if she had changed people, she looked at Yue'er with pity, and took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat.
Yue'er was shocked and shrank back.
"Does it hurt?"
"It hurts—"
"Come, show my mother."
Yue'er lifted her skirt and saw a large bruise on her calf.
"Alas, you can't blame you for this, and you can't blame my mother for not teaching you the rules first, so you can't do this in the future."
"Yes, Yue'er knows."
Wang Niang glanced at the broken stick thrown on the ground, and said pityingly: "Steward Mo is really good at it, I asked him to scare and scare you, and he actually beat you like this." ”
Yue'er was shocked in her heart, she suddenly felt that this woman was not a person, she was simply a demon.
Wang Niang shouted into the distance, and the green pothos hurriedly rushed over.
"You help Miss Yue'er to rest, you don't have to go to class in the afternoon, if Second Master Liu's people come, my mother will deal with it."
"Yes, the slave knows."
"You ask the kitchen to make something delicious to surprise the young lady, I think, after this lesson, she will eat a trench and grow wise."
"Yes, slave and maid obey."
Wang Niang waved her hand, and the green pothos helped Yue'er upstairs, a sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, and said, "Second Young Master Liu, if you don't believe it, the old lady will personally take you to see Yue'er's foot injury!" ”
Walking out of Steward Mo in the shadows, he bowed down to Wang Niang and said, "You are still smart, that Second Master Liu is just a yellow-mouthed child, how can he be your opponent?" ”
Wang Niang smiled and said: "The appointment in the afternoon of Fangyuan may be a gangster fire, Second Master Liu is too arrogant, I see that his face is blue, I am afraid that it is a short omen!" ”
Steward Mo said: "Yes, you always look at people very accurately, I think Second Master Liu is going to fight this time, who did you say was the big man he mentioned?" ”
Wang Niang pursed her lips and said: "Who else can there be, Li Dahao, the emperor of Xichun Kingdom, this old guy has been cheating and drinking in our Dawei country for several years, his son kills my Dawei people on the border every day, and the emperor has a grudge against him to kill his brother, but he still wants him to persuade his son to surrender, I really don't know what to say!" ”
Upstairs in Yiyue, Luluo changed Yue'er into a new bedding and poured hot water for her to warm up, Yue'er was lying on the bed, her little face was full of melancholy.
"Miss, if you want to open up, in Mother Wang's place, you must be careful in everything, do everything according to her instructions, and don't make your own ideas, even if you like her again, you can't be pampered."
Luluo said hypocritically, she still called Wang Niang Wang's mother behind her back, Yue'er thought for a moment, and said: "Aunt Luluo, I want to ask you for something, you must help me!" ”
"Miss, what do you want me to do?"
"I think when Second Master Liu comes in the afternoon, if he comes alone, you have to find a way to meet him quietly."
"Why, miss, do you still want to go to the appointment with him?"
"No, I'm like this, can I still go to the ground, I have a hunch, that Second Master Liu may encounter danger when he goes to Fangyuan for an appointment this time, you have to find a way to remind him."
"Ah, this is a big deal, I must tell Mother Wang!"
"If you tell Wang Niang, then there is no point in doing this!"
The pothos was startled and said, "Why?" ”
"Because of this Second Master Liu, he is likely to help us."
The green pothos was so frightened that she took two steps back and said, "You, what do you want to do, do you want to betray Wang Niang!" ”
Yue'er snorted and said, "You keep calling Mother Wang, which means that you have a grudge in your heart, you are so old, and you still have to serve people here, when will you be a head?" ”
The pothos is actually only in her early twenties, but it is not maintained, and it looks like it does not match her age, but she sneered in her heart: "If you want to buy me, you are also worthy?" ”
"Auntie, you helped me, I promise you, I will help you get out of the sea of suffering and help you marry a good family!"
"Miss, what you just said, I just didn't hear it, Second Master Liu is Second Master Liu, do you think that relying on him, it will be much better than Wang Niang, maybe it will be even worse, so, don't dream!" After she finished speaking, she picked up the hot tub and turned around and walked out of the bedroom.
Yue'er sighed and lay on the bed for a moment.
In the afternoon, the second master Liu really drove an open-top carriage to pick up Yue'er, but Wang Niang told him that Miss Yue'er fell and injured her foot, and Liu Erye stared at Wang Niang for a long time, his eyes were a little gloomy, but he didn't say anything, so he told the coachman to drive away.
Looking at the back of Second Master Liu, Steward Mo was a little worried.
"Wang Niang, I looked at Second Master Liu's eyes just now, he came back from the appointment, I'm afraid that he will trouble us?"
"Yes, Second Master Liu is the kind of master who will repay him, you play Ming, he plays Ming, you play Yin, he plays Yin with you, he smashes my garden today, who knows what will be smashed tomorrow, the old lady has to find a way to deal with it."
"Is there anything you can do?"
"Hmph, the wicked have their own wicked grinding, this is retribution, why bother with me."
Steward Mo looked at Wang Niang with a smug expression, and said secretly in his heart: "Does she already have the means?" ”
Wang Niang sneered in her heart, she finished disposing of Yue'er in the morning, and quietly arranged for Baozhu to go to Zuixiangju for a trip, and inadvertently said that Liu Erye would go to Fangyuan alone, Dai Sanye and Bai Ye's subordinates must have someone in Zuixiangju, if they are well-informed, now Liu Erye is already in crisis.
"The surname Liu, you can't live with the old lady, let the old lady be frightened, and the old lady will also let you take off the skin to see if you are short-lived!"
Upstairs in Yiyue, Yue'er had already walked on the ground, although she felt that her feet hurt, but it was okay to barely walk, Wang Niang invited an old qin woman and brought a piano score to teach Yue'er to play the piano.
In the evening, Yue'er was able to play "Mountains and Flowing Water" in its entirety, although it was intermittent, but it didn't sound very difficult.
Wang Niang stood outside the door of the study several times, with a look of approval on her face, but the corners of her mouth were still mean.
After dinner, it was getting dark.
Luluo lit the lamp in the study, Yue'er read the book for a while, and was about to send Luluo to rest, so she was doing a handstand and practicing with her waist, when suddenly there was a commotion outside the hall, and then the sound of horses' hooves sounded.
There was a huge movement outside, some people screamed, and some people exclaimed.
After a while, a man's voice shouted outside the museum: "Listen to everyone, from now on, the whole city will be under martial law, everyone should close the doors and windows, and everyone is not allowed to go out without permission, otherwise they will be killed!" ”
The people were anxious, and they didn't know what had happened.
A moment later, someone slammed the door at the door of the Frost Leaf Pavilion.
"Open the door, open the door, the Praetorian Guard patrols!"
Wang Niang's face was cloudy, and she ordered Steward Mo to open the door.
As soon as the door opened, a platoon of Praetorian Guards poured in, all armed with swords and guns and brightly armoured.
