Houfu poisonous girl can't be bullied

Chapter 43 Mei Xiang Gets Beaten
"Let them in." Hearing the movement outside, Sun Qionghe motioned for Mei Xiang and Lan Xi to be let in.The two took orders and entered the Liuliyuan with their things.

"Miss said, since my aunt is sick, she can take care of herself. Please accept these ginseng and supplements." Mei Xiang saluted slightly and put the things on the table. Lan Xi also followed, put down the things but did not rush away.

"As slaves, we have to persuade my aunt that since I entered the mansion, I have to abide by the rules of the Marquis Mansion. I really feel sorry for showing my face on the street like my aunt that day. We are young and it doesn't matter if we are maids, but my aunt Their identities are different, so they can’t be compared with our maidservants, and it’s better to do things more safely in the future.” Mei Xiang bowed, and this time the ceremony was very sincere, “After all, the Marquis of Weiyuan is still a relative of the emperor, why does my aunt think that we don’t know? , but when we go out and listen to those discussions, us maidservants really lose face."

"Smelly girl, who is shameless!" Lu Mingmei was serving the medicine, but when the two came in, she stood up with a sullen expression.As she expected, these two girls really came to find fault.

"It's just a retelling of Mama Du's words. Second Miss, don't get angry. My mother's mistakes will inevitably make the young lady lose face, so the young lady should persuade Aunt Sun to live peacefully in this Hou's mansion. Okay, don’t worry about what you have and what you don’t have anymore.” Lan Xi also learned to be smart, and saluted with a smile, looking at Lu Mingmei with provocative eyes, “Oh, that’s wrong, Auntie. Mother Du has reminded her several times If you can't be called mother, the second young lady can only respectfully call madam mother."

"You two bastards, see if I don't tear your mouths off!" Lu Mingmei stepped over, raised her hand and hit Lan Xi, Lan Xi dodged and hid behind Mei Xiang.

Mei Xiang raised her hand to block Lu Mingmei, looked at her with a half-smile and said, "Second Miss, we are in the eldest lady's room, and it is up to the eldest lady to decide whether to beat or scold. It depends on the owner to beat a dog. Have you done it for a while?"

Startled by the sarcasm in Mei Xiang's eyes, Lu Mingmei became even angrier, "It depends on the owner if you beat a dog? What if I just beat you today!"

The wrist was raised again, but this time it hit Mei Xiang's face firmly with a "snap". It seemed a little unbelievable, and it seemed to be acting, Mei Xiang's eyes were filled with tears, Lan Xi was also startled, and shouted loudly Said: "Since the second lady doesn't want to see us so much, then let's go, is it worth doing it!"

After speaking, the two ran out crying together.

He ran all the way to Liuliyuan unimpeded, and cried and shouted all the way. Not long after, the whole Hou Mansion spread the news that Chu Lingyue sent someone to deliver things to Aunt Sun and got beaten.

"You've been wronged, but didn't I say that it's okay if you get angry with her? Why did you get beaten?" Seeing that there was purple blood on Mei Xiang's face, Chu Lingyue felt distressed all over her face.Encouraging Xiang'er to give her medicine to remove blood stasis, she stood aside and babbled.

"Miss, if we got out safely, how could this matter become such a big deal!" Mei Xiang didn't take it seriously, although she was slapped today, but she believed that Aunt Sun would get an even bigger slap tomorrow!

"Don't be so presumptuous next time!" Chu Lingyue glared at Mei Xiang, pulled Lan Xi over to check, "Let me see if you're injured."

"I'm fine. I followed Mei Xiang's instructions and hid behind the second lady when she made a move. It can be said that Lanxi was not careful when she was beaten, but can Mei Xiang be careless with such a good temper? I see Aunt Sun How can you talk now!" Lan Xi's naive round face was still as innocent as ever, Chu Lingyue was speechless seeing the two of them so indifferent.

According to what Chu Lingyue meant, it was the angry Sun Qionghe who lost his temper, and when the news got out, his reputation would naturally be ruined. As a result, these two girls made their own decisions and angered Lu Mingmei, causing him to be slapped.

But their slap was not in vain, before noon, the whole mansion had spread the word.

Under Madam Du's decision, Mrs. Du stayed in the Hou's mansion to do some menial work, sewing, mending, washing and cleaning. While washing clothes by the pond, she heard what some other women were talking about.

"You don't know, the people in Liuliyuan have become more and more arrogant these days."

"What's the matter? Didn't you just hurt a girl named Shuining two days ago? What's the matter?"

"What else can I do? Today, the young lady's servant girl went to visit her sick, but she ran back crying. You don't know, Mei Xiang's face is purple. If Mei Xiangniang saw this, it would be so distressing."

"Well, we watched Mei Xiang grow up, so there's nothing to say about her temper. If it was Lan Xi, she might get a slap in the face to offend that murderer, but Mei Xiang's so respectful and appropriate temper was slapped. How much hatred this must be."

"Hey, you can't blame Mei Xiang. Aunt Sun was kicked out by the Shangshu Mansion two days ago, and she is angry at the moment, and it's not uncommon for her to vent her anger with a maid. Isn't it because Shui Ning tapped her forehead?" What about Huatian, she was beaten when something happened, and she is still in bed."

"You can't vent your anger with someone else's girl if you take a girl! You didn't force me to do something embarrassing myself, so why beat up a little girl!"

"The person who turns back has offended her, let's see who will serve her."

Du Shi didn't intend to interrupt at first, and immersed himself in washing clothes, but the more he listened, the more unpleasant he became.She knew that the master who lived in Liuliyuan was fierce, but his surname was also Sun, and he was kicked out by Shang Shufu. Could it be such a coincidence?
Before she knew it, Du's thoughts had drifted away, and it wasn't until Xiaoyu took the words written today and called her several times that she finally came back to her senses.

"Mother, what are you thinking?" Xiao Yu carefully put away the copybook Mei Xiang wrote for him, then squatted beside her and looked at Du Shi with her head supported.

"It's nothing, did Xiao Yu learn any new characters from the young lady today?" Mrs. Du put on a smiling face and asked comfortingly, touching Xiao Yu's head.Du Shi is a farmer and a good hand at work, but he is illiterate.

Xiaoyu's ability to read and write was nothing more than comfort to her. Seeing that Chu Lingyue didn't chase her away, she acquiesced in Xiaoyu's running to Chu Lingyue's place if she had nothing to do.

"Well, sister Mei Xiang wrote me a copybook, mother, hurry up and wash it, I'll go back and write it for you after I finish it early."

The happiness of a child is so simple, a small thing can satisfy him.Looking at the delicate lowercase script on the paper, Du Shi shook his head and quickened his movements.

Not long after, a few spring shirts were washed and aired out.Mrs. Du dragged Xiaoyu back, and when she entered the yard, she heard someone crying in Mama Du's room.

"Mother Du, I know it's against the rules, but Mei Xiang fell from me after all, I can't hear that she's hurt and don't go to see her! I beg you, just find an errand and transfer her here Let me take a look, can I just take a look!"

The crying was mixed with pleading, Du Shi heard that he wanted to take a step forward but pulled Xiaoyu back.This must be Mei Xiang's mother. It is said that Mei Xiang is a servant born in the family, and her parents are both old people in the house.Any parent who would not be distressed to hear that her daughter has been wronged must be very anxious now.

After walking far, I could still hear Mama Du's crying in the room.Du Shi thought for a while, then turned around and walked back.

"It's not that you don't know, isn't it because you are looking for trouble for her when you go to see the child! Who is Aunt Sun, she has a lot of eyes like a hornet's nest, and now you go to people to watch and say, isn't it because you are dissatisfied?" , when Aunt Sun doesn't punish you, you will punish Meixiang!"

The person who spoke was not Mrs. Du, but the woman in the mansion. She simply had no outsiders, so she spoke unceremoniously. Domineering over the head of the prostitute! Especially the second young lady, Shuining is only a child, and she is beaten like that. It hurts me to see it! Aunt Sun said it is a half-master, but she said It's not good, it's not as good as those of us who are servants, at least we don't get stabbed in the back."

"Okay, don't talk about it, after all, Aunt Sun is the daughter of the Minister of Rites. Although she was kicked out this time, her bones and tendons were broken anyway. Be careful that one day Aunt Sun turns over and you will suffer! Four Your family, don't cry, I'll find a reason to let Mei Xiang come over to you to have a look." Mama Du said, no one dared to say anything.

Not daring to say doesn't mean not daring to think. At night, even the butler had bad words about Aunt Sun in his ears.

In the evening, Mei Xiang was called away by Mother Du. Chu Lingyue guessed what was going on and didn't stop her. She tossed and turned in bed after dinner, always feeling a little uneasy.

Du Shi was also uneasy. The hatred of killing her husband was unshakable. She had suffered so much for so many years. Although she got the silver taels compensated by the Sun's residence, everyone was dead, so what's the use of asking for silver taels!

She couldn't enter the Ministry of Rites Shangshu's mansion, but isn't there a ready-made one in Weiyuanhou's mansion!
Turning over, Dushi touched Xiaoyu's warm little hand.At this moment, she suddenly hesitated.If something happened to her, what would Xiao Yu do?For no reason, no one is willing to raise such a child.

However, if she doesn't take revenge, how can she be worthy of her dead husband and parents-in-law!Now there are only two members of their family of five, all of whom were killed by Sun Shangshu.If the government can't make them pay for their lives, she will let them pay for their lives!

There were a few knocking sounds outside the window, Du Shi was surprised, hurriedly put on his clothes and went over, opened the window, it turned out to be Du's mother.Visiting late at night must be something important, so Mrs. Du hastily let Madam Du in.

Who knows, Mother Du shook her head and signaled Mrs. Du to come out.
