Embroidered golden branches

Chapter 22 Dispute
The slap fell hard on Luzhi's face. From Luzhi's slightly staggered body, Sangsang knew that the slap was not light.

"Sister, what do you mean by hitting my maid for no reason?" Sang Sang's face turned red with anger. Wei Lingyin's move was undoubtedly a provocation. Although Lu Zhi was a maid, she had already regarded her as a friend. Treated.

People's hearts grow with flesh. During this time, her hand was injured, and Green Branch took good care of her. Sang Sang also felt a little more grateful to her.

Seeing Sang Sang's angry expression, Wei Lingyin smiled, "Your maid? If I remember correctly, cousin, you didn't bring a single maid with you when you entered the house. When did this green branch become your maid? ?”

"Besides, I am the eldest lady of the Wei Mansion. What reason do I need to beat up a maid in the Wei Mansion?"

Hearing Wei Lingyin's words, Sangsang's adrenaline surged. She wanted to slap Wei Lingyin in the face, but the pain in her palm told her not to act rashly.

Sang Sang looked at Wei Lingyin for a long time, then suddenly smiled, her eyes as curved as crescent moons, "Yes, you are the eldest lady of the Wei family, so you naturally have the right to slap your servants, but I don't know what will happen if this matter is spread out. Will Miss Wei’s reputation be affected?”

"It's for no reason. Wouldn't it lose everyone's ladylike demeanor by doing this? I'm afraid no one will appreciate it if it spreads, right?"

Wei Lingyin's expression changed, and her voice became sharper, "How dare you!"

Although it is said that the life of a servant belongs to the master, punishing a servant for no reason will inevitably make people feel that he is too vicious.

Not to mention wealthy families, even ordinary families are not willing to marry a bride with evil intentions.

"What am I afraid of? With my status, I can't marry into any noble family." Sang Sang looked at Wei Lingyin confidently.

Seeing that something was wrong, a maid next to Wei Lingyin hurriedly ran to Jiang's yard. Sang Sang saw it but did not move.

Instead, Luzhi tugged at the corner of Sangsang's clothes, signaling her to leave quickly.

Now everyone in the house knows that the cousin Sangsang is not favored at the moment. Now that she has a dispute with the eldest lady, the mistress will not support her when she comes, and may even scold her.

Sangsang looked at Luzhi's red face and didn't move.

Perhaps knowing that Jiang would come later, Wei Lingyin became confident, "Oh, if you dare to tell me, my mother will not let you go, and you will have no place in the Wei Mansion from now on."

Sang Sang wanted to say that it would be okay if she didn't, and she didn't care about it, but she didn't say it out loud.

Her words were like rubbing Wei Fu's face on the ground. If the old lady knew about it, she would not take it lightly.

Jiang came very quickly. She was originally angry because Wei Yong didn't come back for the New Year, but now Sangsang has hit her. Even though she usually doesn't care much about Sangsang, now it involves Wei Lingyin after all. She was a little more partial after all.

What's more, Sangsang seemed to her to be uneasy recently, causing chaos in the house.

She didn't even ask about the cause and effect when she came over, and just banned Sangsang's feet.

"The old lady just taught my cousin some time ago. Unexpectedly, my cousin started arguing with my sisters before her injury healed. It seems that my cousin didn't even take the old lady's words to heart."

"In this case, Miss Cousin should reflect on her behavior in the room during this time and read the female precepts a few more times."

After saying that, without waiting for Sang Sang to speak, he directly motioned to the mother-in-law behind him to take Sang Sang back to the yard.

After entering the courtyard, Luzhi knelt down in front of Sangsang and admitted her mistake, "I'm sorry, Miss, it's all the slave's fault. If it weren't for the slave, the miss wouldn't have quarreled with the eldest lady and was grounded by the madam!"

Seeing Lu Zhi's red eyes, Sangsang couldn't help but sigh, and then pulled her up.

She stretched out her hand and touched her face gently, "I'm sorry, it's my uselessness that caused you to be beaten, and I can't even seek justice for you." After hearing Sangsang's words, Luzhi couldn't stand it anymore. Unable to bear it, his eyes dropped.

"Miss, don't say that. Luzhi is very lucky to be with you."

Sequoia on the side was also a little moved when she heard it. Indeed, before Sangsang entered the mansion, the two of them were just rough maids and were bullied every day.

But after following Sangsang, they transformed into first-class maids.Although I still get bullied, my monthly payment is much higher.

Moreover, Sang Sang was very kind to the two of them and never beat, scolded or bullied them at will.

Mr. Jiang did not allow Sang Sang to go out, so Sang Sang could only stay in the yard.

When the sun was right, she would lie in the yard and bask in the sun, look at the small patch of sky, and silently ask in her heart, will she always live like this in the future?

No, she is not reconciled!

She is not a person of this era. She has received an equal education for men and women, and she has also soared outside.

An eagle that has soared will never be willing to be a caged bird again, so she must escape and stay far away from this home.

A few days later, Sangsang's hand was mostly healed.

To escape, you must have money.Not only did she fail to escape last time, but the money Sangsang finally saved was also taken away by Wei Cheng.

Now she could only continue to save money. Fortunately, she didn't throw away the things before, and picked them up again, preparing to repeat the same trick.

So she dyed another piece of cloth carefully.

"Miss, your hands are so skillful, and the dyed cloth is so beautiful." Lu Zhi excitedly gestured in front of the cloth.

Sang Sang curled her lips proudly, and after the two of them had finished their excitement, she signaled Lu Zhi to find a way to take the piece of cloth out of the house and sell it at a good price.

These servants below all looked after the dishes, and Sangsang was not favored. If he wanted to live a good life, he could only spend his own money, so Luzhi didn't think much about it, but happily agreed.

Three days later, Luzhi came back with 50 taels of silver.

When she walked in, Luzhi's little face was still red, "Miss, you are really lucky this time."

"When I passed by, there happened to be a big customer who took a fancy to the piece of cloth you dyed and paid 200 taels without saying a word. The boss was kind and gave us 50 taels."

With this money, the lady doesn’t have to worry about being hungry or cold.

Seeing Lu Zhi's happy smile, Sang Sang felt a little moved in her heart. She smiled, her eyes full of softness. Lu Zhi and the two of them were her rare true love in the house.

But before the money was warm, an uninvited guest came to the small courtyard.

Wei Cheng hurried to her courtyard, his sword eyebrows raised high, and he took the silver coins in her hand, his tone was extremely cold, "Confiscated."

Sangsang looked at him in surprise, and it took her half a minute to realize. She wanted to grab it, but Wei Cheng stopped her as soon as she reached out.
