Chapter 36 Suppression
Aunt Liu's face turned red. In all these years, Jiang had never treated her so shamelessly.

In front of so many servants, if she was suppressed by Jiang once, it would be difficult for her to straighten up again.

"Girls are all spoiled guests in the family, especially the third and fourth girls have reached the age of marriage. If any bad reputation spreads, it will be detrimental to their marriage." Aunt Liu's tone was tactful, with an implicit threat. said.

Naturally, Jiang didn't want to do anything that would damage Zuo Xiangning's reputation, but seeing Liu's mother and daughter showing off in Zuo Xiangning's yard, she really couldn't swallow it.

Zuo Xiangning looked at the hesitant Jiang from the side, feeling secretly worried.

Jiang and Aunt Liu are now in a fight. Either the east wind overwhelms the west wind, or the west wind overpowers the east wind. The final result will directly affect their status in the hearts of everyone in the house.

"Mom, Third Sister is such a hot-tempered person, please don't take it to heart." Zuo Xiangning smiled and persuaded: "If you don't calm down, let Third Sister copy a few pages of scriptures for the old lady. Just enough to give her some peace of mind."

Jiang's face couldn't help but reveal a smile.

As soon as Zuo Xiangning said these words, she not only gave herself a step up, but also confirmed that Zuo Xiangyu had a bad temper. She also punished Zuo Xiangyu to copy scriptures to the old lady. Zuo Xiangyu couldn't refuse even if she wanted to.

"You child is too honest and kind, and you will suffer in the future." Jiang touched Zuo Xiangning's hair angrily, looked at Zuo Xiangyu and said, "Third girl, go back and copy the scriptures ten times. If you don't copy, You are not allowed to leave the yard at all."

Zuo Xiangyu was so angry that she almost broke her silver teeth.

When she hears the word "经" now, she gets a splitting headache!

Aunt Liu was also very angry. Zuo Xiangning was kind and honest, so what had become of Zuo Xiangyu?
When they arrived at Yulanzhai, they started to scold Zuo Xiangyu, "Are you out of your mind? I told you to stay away from the Jiang family and don't mess with that girl Xiang Ning. Why can't you listen?"

"Mom, can you stop talking?" Zuo Xiangyu sat on the chair angrily, "If you were the royal wife, would I be so angry with you?"

"Shut up!" Aunt Liu listened to her daughter's heart-wrenching words and said coldly: "In all these years, when have I been pointed at my nose and scolded by her like today?"

"You always stay in front of the old lady and father, so she will naturally give you some respect." Zuo Xiangyu whispered.

Aunt Liu's face turned green and red, and she stared at her daughter without saying a word for a long time.

Until Zuo Xiangyu relented and said: "Mother, I have discovered now that Jiang is not prepared to give us a way to survive."

A trace of hatred flashed in Aunt Liu's eyes.

The next morning, Zuo Xiangning got a letter from Zhang Rui's family, saying that the housekeeper went to Ruyi Courtyard the night before and stayed for half an hour before coming out.

Zuo Xiangning felt slightly nervous.

She told Jiang before that she had made it up when she saw the housekeeper and Jin Zhui together.

When Aunt Liu was a housekeeper in her previous life, she directly married Jin Peng to the housekeeper. The housekeeper gave a small part of the Jiang family's property to Mrs. Zuo and most of it to Aunt Liu.

Jiang, who had just lost his eldest son and youngest brother, was lingering on the hospital bed. He could not take a breath and almost died.

Zuo Xiangning told Jiang that the housekeeper went to Aunt Liu's place.

Jiang didn't take it to heart and sneered: "They are anxious and ready to discuss countermeasures."

"Mother, none of us know how long the housekeeper and Aunt Liu have been together. If they take action first, they are probably well prepared." Zuo Xiangning secretly cursed herself for being a fool in her previous life. He didn't care about things at home at all. Although he was reborn, he didn't take the initiative at all.

Jiang's expression slightly calmed, "You mean we take action first? But now is not a good time to remove the housekeeper." "Isn't it my grandma's birthday in a few days? You can ask the housekeeper to go to Cangzhou to send gifts on your behalf. , by the way, give me something to my third brother, and let the uncle of the Jiang family find a way to detain the housekeeper. We will change all the people in the house here." Zuo Xiangning said: "There are also many mistakes in your dowry. If we can find a new shopkeeper, we will look for a new one. If we can’t find one, we will sell them all!”

Jiang looked at Zuo Xiangning in shock. She didn't expect that Zuo Xiangning would have such a plan at such a young age.

"Keeping a shopkeeper who only recognizes the housekeeper but not your shop will do you no good. It's better to buy new ones and use new people for everything." Zuo Xiangning's face turned red when Jiang looked at her, "My daughter also I don’t know if it’s right to think so.”

"You're right." Jiang nodded and said, "If you give up, if you give up, you will get something."

Jiang asked Zuo Xiangning to write a letter to Jiang's uncle. In order not to alert the housekeeper and Aunt Liu, Zuo Xiangning asked Zhang Rui's family to take the letter to Zhang Rui and find someone to rush it to Cangzhou three hundred miles away.

One day later, Jiang asked the housekeeper to set off for Cangzhou with generous gifts. Luping and Jiang's other companion, Wang Tiezhu and his wife, accompanied them.

In the afternoon of that day, Zuo Xiangning asked Zhang Rui and his two sons to secretly guard several doorways of Zuofu.

Zuo Xiangning picked the two most powerful women and did not let Jiang make a move.

"Transfer Wang Pu's family to your courtyard and work for Cai's mother. Transfer Mrs. Liu to my courtyard and work for Zhang Rui's family. Then give each of them one or two months of silver."

"What are you doing?" Jiang asked in confusion: "Don't you take advantage of this opportunity to drive everyone out together? This opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back."

"We have to prevent them from causing trouble together." Zuo Xiangning pointed to the other two women who were caught by Mingwang and said: "These two were sent directly to the government. They are slaves who deceive their masters and steal from themselves. Let the government punish them severely. .”

"Killing chickens to scare monkeys?" asked Jiang.

Zuo Xiangning nodded, "After working as an errand in the mansion for so many years, no one can guarantee that I will be clean."

Jiang nodded and asked someone to make arrangements.

After a while, Zhang Tu, the eldest son of Zhang Rui's family in the outer courtyard, came in and said that a boy beside the second young master ran out of the kitchen door and was caught by him.

Jiang looked at Zuo Xiangning.

"Use a sack to cover the inverted seat next to the concierge." Zuo Xiangning said.

As soon as Zhang Tu left, Mrs. Zuo sent someone to find Jiang.

Jiang stood up with an ugly expression, "What does she want at this time?"

"I'll go with you." Zuo Xiangning stood up and said.

"You don't have to go." Mrs. Jiang patted her hand, "As a junior, what else can you do besides being punished? Just stay here and help me take care of things in the yard."

"You must have missed Aunt Liu and went to tell the old lady the letter. The old lady will definitely be angry with you..." Zuo Xiangning's eyes were full of worry.

The matter has reached this point, Jiang has already broken up with Aunt Liu, and as for the old lady, most likely she is on Aunt Liu's side.

Jiang believed that she was more than enough to deal with them, but looking at Zuo Xiangning's worried face, she hesitated for a moment and took her and Zhang Rui's family to the old lady's yard.

As soon as Mrs. Jiang crossed the threshold, Mrs. Zuo exclaimed: "Ms. Jiang, you are so brave!"
