"Just now, Auntie Zhong said that she wanted to go see Juan Niang. This servant thought that Auntie Zhong was a nice person and also got your attention, so I let Mother bring Auntie Zhong in … But who knew that not too long after, this servant would hear Juan Niang's wails and the wet nurse's screams. This servant rushed in and saw that Auntie Zhong had unknowingly entered with a dagger, and her face was covered with blood.
Lin Jia almost could not stand after hearing this, he felt dizzy.
Grand Madam stood up shakily, telling Lin Jia to rest first, she would go and take a look, but Lin Jia only held onto her mother with tears in her eyes and followed her out.
Waiting for the Grand Madam and Lin Jia to rush over, the Auntie Zhong was already kneeling on the ground with a bloodstained dagger at her feet. The pitiful young Juan Niang's face was covered with blood as she cried out "Mother, Mother, it's so painful!".
If he really injured Juan Niang at this time, he might even lose his life.
Lin Jia staggered forward and hugged Juan Niang tightly, and shouted loudly: "Quickly go and get a doctor! If anything happens to the Juan Niang, I want you all to pay with your lives! "
Instantly, all of the maids and wives swarmed outside.
Grand Madam first looked at Juan Niang who was on the bed. After Juan Niang's cries had died down, her heart relaxed a little, and she knelt down beside the bed. She ordered coldly: "Come out with me!"
She had always felt that Auntie Zhong was a smart person, how could she have done such a thing … Even if Auntie Zhong was extremely stupid, she would not be like this.
The Auntie Zhong tremblingly followed him to the end of the corridor.
The Grand Madam leaned on his walking stick, suppressing the anger in his heart, "What happened? Mother Xu said you want to kill Juan Niang? "
Auntie Zhong did not dare raise her head.
Grand Madam swung his walking stick fiercely at her, and asked in a stern voice: "Is it true or not?"
"Concubine … I have never wanted your life, but I want to ruin her looks! " Auntie Zhong's eyes flickered, thinking that Princess Changze's letter was very clear, if she did not destroy Juan Niang's appearance, then Princess Changze would send people to destroy Chun Geer's little face … Chun Geer, Chun Geer is still so young, how can he stand it!
With a "pa" sound, Grand Madam raised his hand. This time, he did not even use his walking stick, and viciously slapped Auntie Zhong.
After marrying into the Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion for so many years, she had never personally fought with anyone before. There were many ways to torture someone, so where would she be able to do it herself?
How could these lowly pains even compare to her own hands? But this time, she really could not hold it in, "A child as young as Juan Niang, how can you do that? Is it because Juan Niang accidentally pushed Lin Geer off the kang, causing scars to appear on her forehead, so you want him to have a taste of this? Heh, at that time, the imperial physician had already made it clear that if you treat them properly and wait for the Lin Geer to grow up, you won't be able to see the scar on your head clearly anymore. Do you think the imperial physician is lying to you, or do you think I'm lying? "
"Lin Geer is a man, even if she really falls, if she is successful in the Imperial examinations in the future, how can she not have a good future? Juan Niang? Juan Niang is a girl, do you want her to never marry out? "
After a while, she said: "Back then, after you hurt Brother Ting, I thought you knew how to repent, but now, I know what it means to change your personality. Back then, you even dared to make a move on Tang Geer, so what's wrong with using poison on Juan Niang … Someone come, lock Auntie Zhong up first and send someone to bring him back! "
This matter, she wouldn't let anyone off the hook even if they wanted to.
Lin Jia and Juan Niang's cries overlapped each other, causing Grand Madam's head to hurt, but she just stood there foolishly, sighing one after another.
What kind of evildoers were these?
Nanny Chen advised lightly from the side: "Would you like to go somewhere else first? "I'll keep watch here. If anything happens, I'll let you know."
The Grand Madam shook his head and only listened intently to the sounds inside. Lin Jia was crying so hard that she couldn't catch her breath, only saying that she wanted the Auntie Zhong to pay with her life. Mrs Xu advised from the side, saying that she was in charge of this matter.
Grand Madam felt very upset, he grabbed Nanny Chen's hand and went to the side chamber.
After waiting for less than an hour, Mu Lan sent a message over, telling him that the wound on Juan Niang's forehead had stopped bleeding, but because the dagger was too deep, the doctor had said, even if Hua Tuo was alive, he would still be unable to cure the wound on Juan Niang's forehead, so her forehead would definitely be scarred.
When the Grand Madam heard this, he said after a long while, "I understand. All of you can leave. If the Fifth Master comes over, tell him to come in directly to see me."
Mulan quickly left.
On the other hand, the Nanny Chen said softly, "Do you want me to stay here and pour you some tea?"
"No need, all of you go down. I want to be alone for a while!" Grand Madam waved his hand and interrupted her words.
Thus, the Nanny Chen had no choice but to go down.
Grand Madam reached his hand out to the table and drank the cold tea in one gulp. Only then did he feel the anger in his heart dissipate slightly.
By the time Lin Pei rushed over, the sky was already dark, but there were no lights in the side chamber.
It was the Nanny Chen who took advantage of the moment when he was entering to bring two Maid s in to light the lamps. In the end, she brought the two Maid s and left hurriedly.
Only then did the room light up.
However, Grand Madam felt that it was better not to light it, she did not want to see his son at all, "What do you plan to do about this?"
Lin Pei said in a low voice: "Your son never thought that Auntie Zhong would actually do such a thing, it's just that the matter has already happened, no matter how much you say, it won't make up for it … I know that it will be difficult for you to be stuck in the middle of this matter, so let's do it this way. Whether it is me going to apologize in front of Big Brother, or personally making a trip to the First Princess Pingning Palace, I will have nothing else to say.
"Let's not talk about that later. However, how do you plan on dealing with the Auntie Zhong?" Grand Madam has been married into the First Princess Pingning Palace for a few years already, and it has been difficult for his son. He only has a child like him in his knees, I think the meaning behind her actions is to take away Auntie Zhong's life! "
She was only half a master after all. This status and face were all given to her by her master. If her master didn't want to give it to her one day, then she wouldn't be able to match up to the servants.
She also felt that the life of the Auntie Zhong wouldn't be able to be spared either. Previously, she had used her own child to harm the Madam Lian, and now, something like this had happened … Do you really think that everyone in Duke Xinzhong’s Mansion is a soft persimmon?
Although he had not told Auntie Zhong about his relationship with him, and Auntie Zhong had not asked him a single question over the years, just from the fact that Princess Changze had his own children, was able to deduce one or two things … What's more, this matter involved Lin Geer and Chun Geer. If Auntie Zhong talked about this randomly before she died, wouldn't this secret be lost? If this matter were to spread, his career as a official would be ruined …
As vicious as he was, he didn't expect that Auntie Zhong would already know that she was dead without a doubt. However, she never thought that she would divulge even a single word of it, and instead thought about her three children before she made a move …
However, Grand Madam said with a frown: "In the end, how should we deal with this Auntie Zhong, we should at least give him something... I say, back then, Auntie Zhong was not the one to have the authority of the butler. It was just an aunt, how could she know her own responsibilities?
Lin Pei only said: "It would be better to keep Auntie Zhong under house arrest, and prevent him from coming out of the Falling Swallow Garden for the rest of her life!"
Even though he said that, he knew in his heart that he couldn't keep Auntie Zhong's life. Taking advantage of the time that he had spent with Auntie Zhong, he transferred all of the servants and wives away and seized the opportunity to take her life … The mouth of a living person was never as firm as that of a dead person.
"Imprison Auntie Zhong?" The Grand Madam sneered. He reached out his hand to sweep the tea Gu on the table to the ground, but he still found it difficult to vent his anger. He picked up the cane that was placed beside him and ruthlessly hammered Lin Pei a few times, "Let's not talk about whether First Princess Pingning and the Sister Jia agree to it or not, even I do not agree to it … What kind of thing is Auntie Zhong, do you think she will be able to keep her lowly life after ruining her looks? "
In fact, she never thought that Lin Pei would go easy on her because of an aunt.
Lin Pei did not even hide, even if he had not seen the Princess Changze in the past few days, he knew that the Auntie Zhong did not have that kind of courage. The one behind this was not the Princess Changze, who could it be, "The Auntie Zhong does deserve to die, but what she did previously was already enough for her to die thousands of times. It is just that she had waited upon her son for so many years and also gave birth to three children. Even if you aren't thinking for your son, you should think for Lian Jieer, Tang Geer and Lin Geer instead … "
"It's good that you didn't mention the Lin Geer. When you did, I got even angrier." Grand Madam was so angry that his entire body was trembling, and he said with a trembling voice: "That day, you kept saying that Lin Geer was your son, so you pulled Lin Geer in front of the mirror to take a look, and see just where he could imagine you from! In that case, there is a doctor already in the house, whether or not Lin Geer was born at the end of the month, the doctor will know after looking at it. "
Lin Pei didn't dare to reply. Originally, Princess Changze's body was empty, and after marrying into Wang Family, it was even more difficult to resolve. Thus, Lin Geer was born at the age of nine months … Even if he wanted to hide it from her, the doctor would not be able to hide anything when he checked his pulse.
