The Rebirth of an Ill-Fated Consort - 37. Clash

The room was surprisingly quiet. Jiang Ruan stood quietly on the spot, with a faint smile on his face, but his eyes seemed to be sad. Compared with Jiang Susu’s pitiful, her quietness taught people more to inquire.

Xia Yan’s smile froze on his face, and the hands in his sleeves clenched into fists. Jiang Ruan said nothing, but calmly accused Jiang Susu of being rude. Who can embarrass a girl who is eager for family affection after returning home? Sure enough, I saw that Mrs. Jiang looked at Jiang Ruan’s eyes softer. Jiang Susu had not yet reacted, and only heard Mrs. Jiang’s unhappy voice: “Su Niang, your eldest sister Fang is home, come to see my grandmother. It is justified, no nonsense.”

Jiang Susu was stunned for a moment. It is true that what she said just now was deliberately aimed at Jiang Ruan, but she was also sure that Mrs. Jiang would not blame her. After so many years, she was well-behaved and sensible. Mrs. Jiang loved her very much, but today it is. Angry at her for the first time. Is it still young? Jiang Susu concealed it reluctantly, and smiled: “Sorry big sister, Susu didn’t mean it, big sister don’t be angry, okay.”

“You and I are sisters, how can I be angry.” Jiang Ruan replied softly.

Old Mrs. Jiang was even more satisfied, and said: “You two sisters need more support. The big girl is doing very well today.”

Xia Yan smiled and stepped forward: “Nianniang Ruan is naturally a good one, but Niang Ruan, I heard that Lin Lang has annoyed you today. It seems that it is for a servant, and the old lady is in charge. What’s the matter?”

Jiang Susu still nestled beside Mrs. Jiang, but his posture was not as natural as Fang Jin’s house. Mrs. Jiang also looked at her, obviously waiting for her to say something.

Jiang Ruan then talked about the ins and outs of what happened outside Yanhua Garden. Her tone was steady, and even her dialogue with Lin Lang was repeated verbatim, without any modification, which made people even more convincing. After that, she looked at Mrs. Jiang: “Old lady, when my mother died, I was ill in bed. I only heard that Mother Zhou was out of the house, but I didn’t want to see it today. I think it was the brave maid who said at the time. Wrong words. It’s just that I don’t know. Mother Zhou is my nanny, why did she fall to this point?”

Xia Yan sighed softly: “Niang Ruan, you are young, and I don’t want to tell you some things. In fact, after my sister passed away, Mother Zhou gave her; she didn’t go out of the house, but stole her sister’s jewelry and prepared to leave. In Jiang’s Mansion, people with dirty hands and feet are the most tolerable, and Mother Zhou is your nurse. For fear that your illness will get worse under your sadness and disappointment, I discussed with the master and punished Mother Zhou first. You.” Xia Yan looked at her sincerely: “Now I will teach you to know that my mother is here to make you wrong, but this person should really be punished, even if you want to misunderstand me, I don’t regret the original decision. ”

Both Caique and Dujuan listened with their heads down. There was no place for them to speak, but they were thinking secretly. The lady said that it was really dripping, and the big girl had nothing to say.

Jiang Ruan shook his head: “Although my mother took care of the servants of Lintel Qingyuan on her own, she never told me in five years, but it was all for my sake. How could I blame my mother?”

Xia Yan’s face was a bit ugly, but seeing that Jiang Ruan’s face was more sincere than her, she seemed to have not noticed the irony in her words at all, and her heart was even more suffocated. Jiang Ruan said again: “It’s just that I still don’t understand one thing, and that is that the subordinate who stole the owner’s money and jewelry does not seem to be punished by gouging his eyes and eating Yexiang. The Jiang family is also considered a scholar, how can it be? Do such bloody things?”

“Put out your eyes and eat Yexiang?” Mrs. Jiang frowned, “What’s going on?” She is a Buddhist cultivator and has her own opinions on some things. She has always kept one eye on Xia Yan’s methods. Close one eye, knowing that Xia Yan is not a fuel-efficient lamp, but unlike this quietly manly woman who can treat an defenseless nanny so viciously, this has touched her bottom line.

Xia Yan’s voice was still gentle: “It’s not like that, because I thought that Mother Zhou was Ruan Niang’s nanny. There was still a habit of stealing in the washing room, and there was a dispute with other servants in Huanxiyuan, and the eyeballs were gouged out. Huanxiyuan could not tolerate her anymore, so I could only do the work of pour Yexiang.”

“So that’s it,” Jiang Ruo thoughtfully: “Where is the person who plucked out Mother Zhou’s eyeballs now?”

“I have already played the board and expelled from the house.” Xia Yan said: “As for eating Yexiang, that was Lin Lang’s own idea. I have already taught her a lot.”

After this action, it seemed that she was virtuous and virtuous, and took care of the overall situation. There was nothing wrong with Jiang Ruan. Jiang Ruan smiled slightly: “My mother is really good, and I will not do better. But since Mother Zhou’s crime does not end here, I am back now, and she is still counted as my lintel… No, the people of Ruan Ju, can you let your mother be the master and grant Ruan Niang’s request?”

Before Xia Yan could speak, Jiang Susu had already called out: “Big sister, you want Mother Zhou to go back to your yard again, aren’t you afraid of her stealing things?”

“Niang Ruan, I know that you are a kind-hearted child, but Mother Zhou’s character is really not suitable for you to be with you, and she is also a blind man. It’s just a casual meal in Ruan Ju. It’s hard for you to raise a servant. Waiting? Wouldn’t Jiang Mansion become a joke? Doesn’t the old lady think so too?”

“Not bad.” Mrs. Jiang nodded.

Jiang Ruan said: “I did this for the Jiang Mansion. Jiang Mansion has always been clear about right and wrong, and it has very rules and regulations. Nowadays, a good-natured person, Mother Zhou, has been plucked out of her eyes under everyone’s noses. , Next time it will be someone else, will it be more than just a pair of eyeballs, what will everyone think of our Jiang Mansion, will only say that Jiang Mansion is messed up, and will only say that the mother’s housekeeper is unfavorable. If Ruan Ju’s hands and feet are really dirty, I will be the first to send her to the government. If she can reform and rehabilitate, it will be a fate for master and servant. And blind people are not incapable of doing anything, many in the world I was born invisible, but I still live well, right?”

Seeing Mrs. Jiang’s expression loosened a little, Xia Yan frowned, “But this is unreasonable.”

“Mother,” Jiang Ruan interrupted her and said lightly: “Anything that has a cause will have an effect, even if it is for the good results in the next life, it is best not to increase bad karma in this life.”
