Zhumen Chunshen

Chapter 9 The Unlucky Mother Wen
Master Yao's eyes froze, he pointed at the glamorous Yao Cunmei and sneered, "Neglect? Why are you not negligent with your own daughter? You treat me like a fool!"

Ma's body froze, this time his face really turned pale.

She bit her lips and couldn't utter a word, her face flushed with embarrassment.She didn't understand why her husband was so angry all of a sudden.

"Father..." Yao Cunmei also felt needles on her back, and stood up feeling uncomfortable.For the first time, she felt that this luxurious dress felt so bad on her body.

"Master, you have misunderstood Madam," Qiao's mother smiled, stepped forward half a step, and said cautiously and swearingly: "The house makes new clothes every season, Madam has never left the second lady behind, it must be the one who is in charge of adding clothes. My mother made trouble out of it, filling her own pockets! Second Miss has never been out of the yard, and she doesn’t like to see people, that black-hearted servant must have had bad intentions because of this, and Madam didn’t know about it, so she deducted from it and wronged Second Miss! The second lady has a very good temper, and she doesn't tell Madam when she is wronged, so it's no wonder the master gets angry when he sees it!"

With a few words, Ma Shi was picked clean, and more than half of the responsibility was placed on Yao Cunhui.

Mrs. Ma suddenly came back to her senses, her eyes were red, she looked at Master Yao full of grievances, and sighed softly: "Mother Qiao, stop talking! All in all, it's all my fault, if I care more about Hui'er , and won’t get into the current situation! My concubine’s housekeeper is ineffective, please punish me!”

As Ma said, he stepped forward and knelt down to Master Yao.

Master Yao subconsciously stretched out his hand to support her, his face softened a little, and he frowned and said, "Sit down and talk!"

Master Yao wanted Ma Shi's attitude. Now that Ma Shi had admitted his mistake, he didn't bother to hold on to it. How can Ma Shi's father be the servant of the household department, and she still needs to take care of this family? The majesty of the mistress did him no good at all.

Master Yao couldn't help but glanced at Yao Cunhui, thinking that what Qiao's mother said was also reasonable.This daughter has always been weak and silent, and she avoids her father as much as she can, and is desolate.If she doesn't speak out when she is wronged, who will be around her all day long?
However, even though she didn't say anything, she was being a slave to her master, and he couldn't tolerate this!
"Thank you, master!" Satisfied, Mrs. Ma stood up and sat down again.

"Father," Master Yao was thinking about what to say, when Yao Cunhui smiled softly, "Mama Qiao is right. Mother never neglected her daughter. She was always trampled on by servants. Mother was very busy with the housekeeper, and her daughter went out If you don’t have any strength, you already feel guilty, so how dare you make trouble for your mother? It’s okay to be wronged at 01:30! Besides, these clothes are not bad! Father, please don’t blame mother, otherwise, my daughter will feel more and more uneasy!”

Mrs. Ma and Qiao's mother looked at each other calmly, both of them were shocked, and raised their eyebrows in surprise. Does Yao Cunhui seem to be someone who can say such things?If they hadn't seen it in person, they wouldn't believe it!

"Oh!" Master Qiao couldn't help sighing, looking at his cautious daughter, his heart felt a little sour.It's different without a mother to take care of her.I always think she is a boring gourd, but when I think about it, what right does she have to be as reckless as Meier?

"Hui'er is really sensible! Well, I don't blame your mother anymore, but you are too careful! You are the second lady of the Yao family and the master, how can you let the slaves bully you? What does it look like when it gets out? !" Master Yao taught his daughter a lesson, then turned to his wife and said in a cold voice: "Which servant is in charge of buying clothes? Let it come in, I want to see for myself, when will there be such a bold servant in my house!"

Mashi's face turned pale, his body froze, and he answered in a low voice, "Yes," for a while, pouted at Mama Qiao, "Go and invite Mama Wen here."

"Yes, ma'am." Qiao's mother was eager to say, and turned to go out.

Both she and Ms. Wen are Ma Shi's right-hand men. They have fought openly and secretly for many years, and they have cycled between gaining power and losing power many times. In the past two years, Ms. Qiao will be slightly better than Mum Wen and become Ma's close servant. Inseparable confidant.However, Mother Wen got more benefits than her, managing purchases and warehouses, what a waste of money!
Not long after, Mama Wen followed Mama Qiao in with her head down trembling, met Master Yao's cold gaze, her feet softened, and she knelt down with a "plop", trembling all over.

Before coming, Ms. Qiao had already told her the whole matter briefly. Ms. Wen was shocked and angry, fearful and hateful!Thinking about it with her toes, she also thought that it must be due to Qiao's mother!However, apart from swallowing her anger and admitting her failure, she had no other choice.

If she doesn't stand up and take all the responsibility for Ma Shi this time, how can Ma Shi spare her?Don't even think about reuse!

"It's you, the dog slave, who deceived others and filled his own pockets?" Master Yao asked coldly.

"Master, spare your life, master, please forgive me, this slave will never dare again!" Mother Wen was so sad and angry that she wanted to vomit blood, but she forcibly took all the blame.

Master Yao snorted coldly and scolded: "Shameless bitch! She's lawless!"

"My lord, why bother to be angry over an unconscious slave, it's not worth getting angry!" Shi Ma's heart skipped a beat, and he always felt that the word "bitch" was particularly harsh, as if he was the one being scolded.

Master Yao cast a gloomy glance at Mama Wen, and said coldly: "This kind of person is also worthy of being a steward? From now on, he will be punished! If he drags it down and hits the board ten times, he will give away half a year's monthly money! Also, since he is greedy for the second lady Spit out all the money I spent on buying clothes, and put on clothes for the second young lady! If I find out that I do it again next time, don’t blame me for not being sympathetic!"

Mama Wen just felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, her whole body was icy cold, she looked at Mrs. Ma with light eyes, but she was stared back by Mrs. Ma, she was speechless for a while!

"Daddy, it's hard to find out what happened in the past. One more thing is worse than one less thing. In Huier's opinion, let Mother Wen make up for her daughter's clothes for two years. I don't know what Daddy wants?" Yao Cunhui said softly, It seemed to excuse Wen's mother, but in fact it was a gentle cut.

According to the specifications of Miss Yao's mansion, it is a lot of money to make a set of clothes for the four seasons for two years!

"Just follow Hui'er!" Master Yao nodded, stared at Mama Wen in disgust and shouted, "What are you still doing here? Get out of here!"

"Yes, yes, master!" Mother Wen cried out secretly, where did she take this money?She is bleeding in vain!
"Madam's housekeeper is more careful in the future. If she is too busy, she will ask her younger siblings to help. A woman should not be too narrow-minded. After all, younger siblings are younger siblings. No matter what happens, I can't surpass you! See who you are using? Doing such shameless things is just a joke! Maybe there are still people like this in the house, if you have free time, you should take care of it carefully, and all those who should be punished will be punished!" Master Yao said unceremoniously.

In front of Yao Cunhui and Yao Cunmei, Ma's face was flushed red, and he answered in a low voice with shame, and was so annoyed that he wanted to slap Yao Cunhui twice: If it wasn't for her, where did all these things come from!

"Okay, you all go back to rest, girls, don't sit too late! I'll go and see Zan'er!" Mentioning his son, Master Yao's eyes softened a little bit, deep in his eyes, it was hard to hide his deep troubles.

His son's illness has always been a thorn in his heart.Whenever he is working hard outside, as long as he thinks of his sick son, most of his pride will be extinguished in an instant!

Without a son to inherit, what is the use of creating a Wanguan family business?There is only this single seedling under the knee!
"Yes, my concubine will send you off to the master!" Madam Ma clenched her hands tightly, her face turned slightly pale under the dim light, and she gritted her teeth heavily.

"Father, Hui'er also wants to visit my younger brother." Yao Cunhui's heart tightened, and she looked at Master Yao imploringly.

Ma said that Yao Shizan was unwell and needed to rest, and disliked sister Yao Cunhui's contact with him. Yao Cunhui wanted to visit her younger brother yesterday, but thinking of Ma's actions, she had to bear it again and again.Going with Master Yao now, even if Mrs. Ma is unhappy, it must be okay, right?

In the blink of an eye, Master Yao saw his daughter staring at him expectantly with big watery eyes, a pitiful clear face without makeup, Master Yao softened his heart, and nodded: "Okay, then let's go together! "

The father and daughter came to Mingfengxuan, Yao Shizan had just taken the medicine, Li Xiang and Qin Xiang were waiting for him to lie on the soft couch on one side, gargling him with tea in a sweet white porcelain teacup.

Yao Shizan is Mr. Yao's treasure. No matter how busy Mr. Yao is with business, he will never forget to visit him every few days. When he goes out to discuss business, he will come to Mingfengxuan first when he returns home. Therefore, Mrs. Ma does not dare to neglect Yao Shizan. All the furniture and furnishings in Mingfengxuan are the best, and Yao Shizan has never suffered a disadvantage in terms of food and clothing.

Unfortunately, since his biological mother passed away when he was six years old, his health has deteriorated day by day. The doctor said that it was due to excessive grief, and the root cause of the disease was caused by falling into the water in the twelfth lunar month, so he had to take care of it slowly.

"Daddy!" Yao Shizan raised his eyes and caught a glimpse of his father, struggling to get up, with two smiles on his pale face.

"Zan'er, lie down obediently!" Master Yao's heart tightened, he hurried forward and sat on the edge of the couch, stretched out his hands to support his son's shoulders, smelled the smell of medicine all over the room, his eyes were filled with sadness, and he sighed softly: "Drink it Medication? How do you feel? What did you use for dinner?"

"Li Xiang waited and drank the medicine. Has Daddy had dinner?"

While answering Master Yao's words, Yao Shizan's eyes fell on Yao Cunhui, he hesitated for a while, and said, "Second Sister?"

Yao Cunhui stepped forward with a smile, and said softly: "Zan'er!" Yao Cunhui's nose was sour, and a layer of mist gradually formed in his eyes for some reason, and everything in front of him suddenly became fragmented.Obviously she is not the real Yao Cunhui, but for some reason, when she saw Yao Shizan, she couldn't control the urge to cry.
