It is impossible to punish adults

Chapter 375

"My lord, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately! The women have no grievances or enmity with you, why are you slandering me!" Wang Lanxiang immediately cried out for injustice when she heard Mu Liuyun's words.

"I offend my superiors, offend the imperial court officials." Yuan Mu said, his eyes swept over to the yamen servants beside him, "Come here, slap your mouth."

A Yacha who was in charge of punishment immediately went forward, raised his hand and gave Wang Lanxiang two loud slaps, then let her go and threw away a ball of rags, letting her sit on the ground slumped.

These two slaps really made Wang Lanxiang a little dazed. She sat on the ground for a while before recovering. This time, she didn't dare to yell any more. She glanced at Yuan Mu secretly.

"The two slaps you received were not wronged at all," Mu Liuyun glared at the nanny, "Let me ask you, you said I was talking nonsense, then tell me, there are not too many members of the Liao family. Du Zhong is not the only strong man, why do you want Sun De to look for him?"

"It's just that I saw him before, so when I was looking for someone, I thought of him by the way, and asked me to look for him casually." Wang Lanxiang didn't expect Mu Liuyun to ask such a question, and hurriedly replied.

"Oh? Then what did you carry?" Mu Liuyun looked at Du Zhong again.

Du Zhong replied: "It's a screen. It's big and heavy. It took a lot of strength for me and Juniper to carry it to the courtyard where the second young master lives."

"What is the screen?" Master Liao listened to him with a puzzled look on his face.

"Master, it's the big lacquer screen with plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum on it." Du Zhong was also a little dazed when asked by Master Liao.

"Nonsense! Why did you send that big screen to the second young master's room! He is only three or four years old, what's the use of having a screen in the room!" Master Liao felt puzzled. After he and Mrs. Liao gave birth to their eldest son, Liao Wenbai, Three more daughters were added one after another, until they were not too young, and then they became old and gave birth to a young son. The two brothers were very different in age.

"Then I'll ask the nanny to help me out. Why did you specifically ask Sun De to find Du Zhong in the backyard and ask him to carry the things to the second young master's room?" Mu Liuyun asked the nanny Wang Lanxiang.

Wang Lanxiang's eyes flickered: "Perhaps it's the woman who remembered it wrong. Madam, please send it to the eldest young master's room. I was confused for a while, but I accidentally said it was the second young master!"

"I don't think you're so confused, you understand very well." Mu Liuyun smiled, "Du Zhong, you just said that you and the boy named Juniper carried the screen over? What about Sun De? He went there." where?"

"Sun De said he had other things to do, so he left." Du Zhong had a simple mind, and was a little confused at the moment, but he answered questions and answered them, and the things he should explain were not vague at all.

"You asked Sun De to take away Du Zhong, what did Sun De do after that?" Mu Liuyun asked Wang Lanxiang.

When Wang Lanxiang heard that Mu Liuyun had pulled Sun De out again, she quickly said, "Thousands of mistakes are the fault of women, and it has nothing to do with my son. My lord, please don't bring him into it!"

Sun De himself also looked very aggrieved. He was kneeling before, but now he just sat down on the ground, took off a shoe without any explanation, and started to pull down the socks inside, exposing his feet. He stammered anxiously: "My lord! The villain was wronged! No, it's not that the villain didn't help, but the little man hurt his feet!

Well, the other day when I was chopping wood, the head of the ax fell, fell, and hit, hurt my foot, you cough—look!The injury is still there! "

As soon as his feet were exposed, everyone's eyes fell on his feet. They saw a large bruise on the back of Sun De's feet, and the flesh was also swollen. It looked much more protruding than normal feet.

Mu Liuyun was taken aback, and hurried to the front, knelt down to examine Sun De's wound carefully, stretched out his hand and pressed gently and slowly on the wound a few times, Sun De grinned his teeth in pain, and drew back his feet. She stopped her hand and stood up: "Oh, the back of your foot was really badly hit! When did it happen?"

"The night before the young master's wedding." Wang Lanxiang answered for his son, "Because the guests will be entertained the next day, the housekeeper ordered to prepare more firewood, so as not to cause confusion on the day of the wedding.

Although my son is not talkative, but he is diligent in his work, I asked him to chop firewood, but he was injured by an axe. If the boss hadn't treated us so well, he should have recuperated that day.

Thousands of mistakes are all my fault, I didn't think carefully, and I gave the wrong account, how the master wants to punish me, and the adults want to beat me, I admit it, just don't implicate my son! "

"Speaking of which, after asking for so long, where were you that night? What were you responsible for?" Mu Liuyun ignored Wang Lanxiang's pitiful remarks and asked directly.

"Returning to my lord, at the beginning of that day, the women were sent to help serve the bride, but the bride closed the door and didn't let me in to serve her, and even asked her little maid to come out with a plate of dried fruit. Eat out by yourself.

I ate dried fruit at the door for a while, and after thinking about it, I felt that this was inappropriate. I was afraid that people would see me and say I was lazy, but I couldn’t tell, so I went to the back to help others with thanking work. Son continued to stay. "

"Oh? If that's the case, then I wonder if any of you saw the nanny busy that night?" Mu Liuyun looked at the people in the crowd, especially the women who were about the same age as Wang Lanxiang.

She was a little worried at first, whether these people would be unwilling to speak out for fear of offending others, but as soon as the words fell, a woman burst out laughing: "That's right! Mama Wang is a nanny, and Those who have meritorious deeds and hard work, hard work is high, my lord, look at her pair of delicate and tender hands, how dare we let her help us with rough work!
She was assigned to guard the bride that day, we don't remember seeing her in the backyard! "

As soon as the woman spoke, the other people around were either silent, or pursed their lips and snickered, rather gloating, it could be seen that the nanny's popularity in the Liao family seemed not very good.

Mu Liuyun smiled at the pale nanny: "The nanny is really kind! You are an old man who has lived in the Liao family for 20 years, and you probably know everything about everyone in the Liao family. Chen's mother at the back door is greedy for drinking and drinking, and she also knows that she has a daughter who is waiting to be married at home, and she is looking forward to being able to have a good relationship.

So you specially asked someone to send wedding wine to Shen Mama, who has always been friends with Chen Mama, and it is expected that Shen Mama will ask Chen Mama to have a drink together to enjoy the joy!Afterwards, you asked your son to distract Du Zhong, who was guarding the back door for Mother Chen, and took the opportunity to let Tang Wanxin go!
