Chapter 39: A Mess
The cry was sharp and abrupt, quickly overshadowing the laughter of the ladies, and bringing to a halt the atmosphere that had just been eased!
The direction from which the cry came was the southeast corner, where the maids gathered.
At this time, only one or two maids and mothers-in-law are generally left around the ladies, and the rest of the Hou Mansion specially prepared refreshments in the southeast corner for them to rest and play, and the maids of the Hou Mansion will also take turns to rest and play, and chat with the maids of Beppu.
Mrs. Tai raised her eyebrows, and wanted to ask Liu Yue to check it out and dispose of it quietly. But before the words could be spoken, a girl in the southeast corner ran out with her face covered and her hair unkempt and crying, looking at her direction, she wanted to run down, but after running two steps, she accidentally fell to the ground, and happened to fall at the feet of a lady.
The lady ordered the maid next to her to help her up, and asked aloud: "Whose maid is this, so unruly!" ”
The ladies looked at the maid and didn't make a sound, but Yu Qiuyue, who was behind Mrs. Tai, suddenly cried out with an "ah", "Yulian, it's Yulian!" ”
Liu Yue also recognized that this was the first-class maid Yulian beside Aunt Yu, and whispered to Mrs. Tai.
is not only a maid in her own house, but also collides with a guest, Mrs. Tai can't handle it in a low-key way, so in desperation, she has to let Liu Yue bring Yulian up.
Yulian knelt in front of Mrs. Tai's desk, trembling and crying quietly.
Mrs. Tai hated her for making twists and turns, disrupting the tea party, and said sharply: "As a maid, there are no rules at all, take it down, lock it up first, and then dispose of it!" ”
After speaking, he glanced back at Yu Qiuyue slightly, his eyes were sharp, obviously blaming Yu Qiuyue for not disciplining the maid!
Yu Qiuyue sneered in her heart, blame me, there will be something that will surprise you even more later! She took advantage of Mrs. Tai's inattention and quietly gave Yulian a look below.
The two mothers-in-law came up to take Yulian down, and at this moment, Yulian suddenly cried loudly: "Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Tai, don't care about my business, it was the maid Hongxing next to Mrs. who beat me for no reason, so I accidentally screamed out, Mrs. Tai, don't care about my business!" ”
Hearing the name of the red apricot, Jiang Ruonan was shocked, and subconsciously looked at his position, but saw that the red apricot who was waiting behind him had been replaced by Yingxue, but the red apricot was nowhere to be seen, Jiang Ruonan asked Yingxue with his eyes, Yingxue also looked anxious, and shook his head gently. Apparently no one knows what's going on!
At this time, another maid rushed up, knelt down in the middle of the field, and said loudly: "Mrs. Tai, the slave maid beat Yulian, but it was Yulian who insulted our lady behind her back, and the slave maid did it!" Mrs. Mingjian, please! ”
It turned out that Hongxing heard that Yulian had bitten her out, and hurriedly went up to defend herself!
The surrounding ladies watched this farce made by the maids of the Hou Mansion, and the characteristics of gossip came out, and they watched the play with their eyes wide open one by one!
Yulian heard Hongxing say this, and hurriedly cried: "I didn't scold Mrs. at all, which ear did you hear me scolding Mrs.!" ”
Hongxing raised her eyebrows and pointed at Yulian, and her voice was fast and sharp: "Little hoof, do you think you can just admit it?" You scolded our lady for pretending, and what did you say that it is difficult to draw dragons and tigers......"
"Hongxing, shut up!" Jiang Ruonan interrupted Hongxing's voice with a loud shout! The ugliness of the family should not be publicized, and whatever you say in front of the guests is wrong, even if it is right or wrong! It is only right to put this matter down first and deal with it after the guests are gone!
Hongxing looked up and saw the terrible face of her young lady, a little aggrieved, she was all for the sake of the young lady!
"Madam, it's true, it must be because Aunt Yu lost the bet to you, so she will be resentful, maybe these words are her ...... in front of Yulian"
"Slap" Jiang Ruonan hated her and didn't know the severity, raised his hand, and gave Hongxing a slap in the face, only to stop Hongxing's gushing voice.
Hongxing covered her face and looked at her in disbelief, "Miss ......" tears rolled a few times in her eyes and rolled down.
But it was too late, and the ladies around had already learned the whole thing from Hong Xing's words, and it seemed that Jiang Ruolan's maid had beaten the maid of her aunt who entered the door with her.
At this time, everyone noticed that the person sitting in the corner was crying, and he was pitiful to Yu Qiuyue. looked at Jiang Ruolan who was beating people again, and remembered the previous sentence "It is difficult to draw a dragon and a tiger", and she was suspicious, but because this was someone else's housework, it was difficult to ask. Just make all sorts of guesses in my mind.
When Mrs. Tai saw that the tea party she had carefully prepared had turned into a farce, she felt that she had lost face and trembled with anger.
Yu Qiuyue suddenly stepped forward and knelt in front of Jiang Ruonan at this time, and said in a trembling voice: "Sister, you believe me, Yulian will never say such a thing, there must be some misunderstanding during this period!" As he spoke, he turned his head again, looked at Yulian and asked, "Yulian, what's going on, you can tell me clearly!" ”
Yulian kowtowed, crying and said: "Auntie, you believe me, how dare I say such a thing, I am Xiao Cui from Mrs. Wang's family, talking about an excerpt I watched before, talking about the plot in it, but Hongxing suddenly rushed up, gave me two slaps without saying anything, and pulled my hair!" ”
Mrs. Wang, who was on the side, saw that this matter also involved her maid, and hurriedly called Xiaocui to come over to inquire. Xiao Cui knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice: "Yulian is right, we are indeed talking about an excerpt, but that sister ......" Xiao Cui pointed to the red apricot, "but suddenly rushed up and beat people, it's so scary!" ”
"Nonsense, I heard it very clearly...... I see, you're complicit! Hongxing's face was pale and her words were incoherent.
Mrs. Wang sneered: "My maid wouldn't do such an unruly thing!" ”
The matter was revealed, and the ladies all looked at the panicked red apricot, and a sentence invariably flashed in their minds, what kind of master there is, what kind of maid, the master is domineering, the maid is also domineering, and he dares to beat people in public without figuring out anything! Even the maid is like this, you can imagine how Jiang Ruolan usually bullies her aunt!
The ladies all know that Yu Qiuyue was inserted by Jiang Ruolan to change from the main room to the concubine room, and now when they see this scene, they are full of sympathy for her, and some of the good feelings they had for Jiang Ruolan before slowly dissipated unconsciously.
Jiang Ruonan calmly looked at the chaotic scene, her heart was bright, although Hongxing was reckless, she was by no means a person who made a fuss out of nothing, and how could things be so coincidental, but let her hear those sensitive sentences that were easy to misunderstand? Obviously, all this was planned, knowing that Hongxing had an impulsive and reckless personality, this passage was specially said to her to make her misunderstand...... The red apricot fell into Aunt Yu's trap! Hongxing is her first-class maid, not to mention anything else, the crime of not being strict under the rule cannot be escaped no matter what! And with such a fuss, how will others think of her? The tea party was ruined because of the red apricot, and the Hou Mansion lost face, how should Mrs. Tai explain it?
Jiang Ruonan unconsciously broke out in a cold sweat.
She looked at the sad crying in front of her, the innocent Yu Qiuyue on her face, and couldn't help sneering in her heart, she was wrong, sometimes, if she didn't let others go, others would let her go, people like Yu Qiuyue, as long as she relaxed a little, she would pounce on you without hesitation and gnaw you to the scum!
This kind of person, you have to step on her to death, so that she will never have a chance to pounce!
Just as Mrs. Tai was about to announce the end of this farce, suddenly a corner of the table was chaotic again, and a maid shouted anxiously: "Oh no, my wife is sick!" ”
