Lady Changning

Chapter 13

Chapter 13
But such a group of people didn't know that something was happening in the yard.

Xi Lingyan looked at the domineering maid in front of her, bit her lip, trying to calm herself down.

"Second miss, why are you bothering. The eldest lady has ordered that no one can enter the house."

The one who spoke was Zhu Xin, the eldest maid in San Yiniang's house, and the name really matched her extremely well.Bamboo is hollow, where does the heart come from?
"Ma'am? You are on duty in this yard. When did you become someone else's dog? You have to ask your master if you want to be a dog, right?" Xi Lingyan's words expressed her anger.

Zhu Xin's face was flushed by Xi Lingyan's words, when did the second lady borrow her courage?Usually I don't dare to take a breath, but today there are thorns in my words.

"I won't talk nonsense with you, are you letting me in?" Xi Lingyan saw that Zhu Xin was puzzled, and thought that this maid should have no idea, if Zhu Xin let her in, it's fine, if she still refuses, Then she can only be more ruthless like Chang Ning.

"Second Miss, you can talk to Da Furen, why bother me as a maid." Zhu Xin expected that the cowardly Second Miss would not go either.

Xi Lingyan saw that the servant girl was determined to stand by the lady's side, her hands clenched into fists.Hearing Xi Yu's deliberately raised voice outside, she messed up her hair accessories, grabbed Zhu Xin's hand and began to push. The moment Xi Jian entered the yard, Xi Lingyan "accidentally" bumped into a pillar superior.

Xi Lingyan covered her wound, and when she saw Xi Jian, her eyes filled with tears.

"If father really doesn't care about mother and me, why should we stay in the mansion and be looked down upon by others?"

Seeing that the situation was getting worse, Zhu Xin was so frightened that his whole body was shaking like a sieve, and he knelt down on the ground begging for mercy.

"Master, Madam, please spare me."

"You bastard girl!"

Xi Jian was very angry and kicked Zhu Xin aside, even the eldest lady was startled.

Seeing that Xi Jian was moved, Xi Lingyan struck while the iron was hot.Knelt down beside the eldest lady.

"Mother, if Mother has offended you in any way, Lingyan apologizes, but Mother is already seriously ill and cannot continue."

Seeing that the situation was not good, the eldest lady couldn't hold back anymore, but for the sake of face, she could only hold on.

"Lingyan, what are you talking about, girl? The doctor has already gone to invite you, so you should go in quickly to see your mother."

"Mother, even Zhu Xin dared to stop me. If it wasn't someone who gave the order, which maid would be so courageous? Zhu Xin kept saying that it was my mother's order."

"Did this servant girl have the guts to slander me like this? Someone come and take it off!"

Upon seeing this, the eldest lady immediately called for someone to take Zhu Xin down, so that Zhu Xin would not talk too much when she got there.This order was given to Zhu Xin by her, just to give Sanfang a little bit of discipline, lest she feel that Xi Changning is favored now, and hope that others will not take her seriously. Who knows that Sanfang is sick at this time, but now it is Make it such a big deal.

"Ma'am, Zhu Xin is doing things for you, you can't ignore Zhu Xin!"

Zhu Xin knew that this matter had been brought to light, if she didn't hold the eldest lady now, then the eldest lady would definitely ignore her life or death in order to protect herself.

"What are you talking nonsense, maidservant? The women in our backyard live in harmony, and you can disturb people's hearts with just one word? Pull it down!"

Xi Lingyan saw that the witnesses were about to be taken away, and now that this opportunity is lost, who would dare to correct the eldest lady in the future.

"Father, don't you care about this matter? Could it be that the maids of our Prime Minister's mansion can act wildly on the master's head?" Xi Lingyan looked at Xi Jian with hope, and the blood was still flowing from his forehead.

"Lingyan get up first, let the girls bandage you, I will give you mother and daughter justice in this matter. Now take Zhuxin down."

While Xi Jian was speaking, he gave the eldest lady a meaningful look, and the meaning was clear, that is, he knew that this matter had nothing to do with her.But in the officialdom for many years, this face is more important than anything else. If this matter gets out, how can he face the officials.

"Father!" Xi Lingyan is not an idiot either, this is obviously to protect the eldest lady.

"Hey! Who's selling their daughter? I heard miserable cries from afar."

Fifth Yiniang led Xi Yue'er into the yard, followed by Xi Changning who was bandaged.

"What nonsense is Yuniang talking about?" Xi Jian said sternly.

What Yuniang calls is Wu Yiniang, whose full name is Xuan Yuniang, a beautiful woman who was also famous in the Jianghu back then.

"Ah! What's wrong with Lingyan? Hurry up and bandage it up." Fifth Yiniang stepped forward to help Xi Lingyan up, and winked by the way.

Xi Lingyan was red-eyed and was helped aside by Fifth Aunt, but her eyes were still looking longingly at Xi Changning.Xi Changning nodded to indicate not to rush.

"Father should go and see Third Aunt." Xi Changning said calmly.

While Xi Changning was speaking, Zhu Xin, who was supposed to be pulled out, was also dragged aside.

Xi Jian nodded, and quickly went to open the door, followed by the Da Furen and Xi Changning.As soon as she entered the room, she saw the third aunt who was lying on the ground. From her appearance, she seemed to want to get out of bed, but she fell to the ground because of her illness.Xi Jian hurriedly picked up Third Auntie and put her on the bed. It was not difficult to see from her complexion that she had been seriously ill for a long time, her eyes were cloudy and her face was pale, but she held on tightly to Xi Jian.

"Master, it's just right for Bai Liu to die uselessly. Why does the eldest lady torture me like this?" Bai Liu was the name of the third concubine, but the women who married into the prime minister's house were ranked according to their size, and no one called her name after a long time.I'm afraid that the entire Xiangfu only knows that there are three aunts and five aunts, but they don't know their names.

"Bai Liu, what are you talking about? I treat you well, why are you slandering me in front of the master?"

The eldest lady really wanted to go up and strangle this bitch to death, even if she got sick, she would have to deal with the aftermath.Now it is even worse that she is not human inside and out. Today, I really don't know what offense I committed, and everyone is against her.

"you shut up!"

Xi Jian was really angry, this woman really didn't know what to do, she wanted to let her go just now, but now she started pointing fingers in front of him.

"master·····"

The madam's arrogance was instantly extinguished by Xi Jian, and she knew she was wrong and dared not say anything more.

"Bai Liu, rest well, the doctor will come right away. I'll see who dares to touch you if I'm here." Xi Jian comforted.

But what everyone waited for was panting servants, and those who ran were out of breath.

"Old...Master, this...doctor doesn't...have a... willing to come."

"What? All these doctors have taken the guts of a leopard. I can't find a doctor even if I go out from the Xiangfu?" Xi Jian said violently.

Upon hearing this result, the eldest lady felt a bad premonition in her heart.

"Master, it's rumored all over the street, saying... say..." The servant was a little afraid to speak, looked at Xi Jian, and then at the eldest lady.

Xi Jian saw that there must be something strange in it, and when the servants looked at the eldest lady, he knew it.He often works outside the home, and the big and small affairs at home are handled by the eldest lady. Now it seems that his existence is no longer a threat to the eldest lady, and even he is ignored.

"Say!" Xi Jian replied briefly and forcefully.

"It is said that the Da Furen spread the word not to let the doctor enter the mansion to treat the third aunt, and also let a certain doctor spread the word in various medical centers not to mention the treatment of the third aunt. Whoever stands up now is the unscrupulous doctor, so no one dares Visiting the doctor." The servant was a little scared, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

Xi Jian was so angry that he clenched his hands tightly. He is a person who cares about face, and now there may be rumors that his wife and concubine are at odds.

"You! You go to the clinic and invite me here in person." Xi Jian pointed to the eldest lady.

The Da Furen was astonished and asked her to go in person, which is not equivalent to telling the world that she was wronged, if some people can chew their tongues, they would definitely say that she was punished by the master.Xi Jian loves face, and she is also a face-saving person, how to do this?
"Master, just let the servant pay a lot of money to invite him. Opening the door and opening the medical clinic is for business. How can you refuse?"

"Come here, escort the lady to invite the doctor." Xi Jian no longer listened to the lady's explanation.

When the guards stepped forward, the Da Furen felt a chill in her heart, knowing that Xi Jian was determined.Da Furen knew that what she said now was useless, if this did not go according to Xi Jian's wishes, I'm afraid I would be laughed at by the servants here today.She let go of her anger, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Xi Jian pitifully.

"Master, my sister may have misunderstood me. As the eldest wife of the prime minister's mansion, this is also my fault. It is right to invite the doctor this time." The eldest lady said everything cleanly. Do not admit it.

Seeing the eldest lady go out, Xi Changning stepped forward to comfort the third aunt, thinking that anyway, the fire has burned like this, if the eldest lady is not allowed to have a longer memory, I am afraid that someone will suffer in the future.

"Third aunt has suffered, my father is a just person and will definitely give third aunt justice."

Said it was to comfort Third Aunt, but actually these words were for Xi Jian.Everyone knows that the eldest lady is the smooth boat in Xi Jian's official career. In addition to Xi Jian's original talents, of course there is also the strength of the eldest lady's natal family.So it is normal for Xi Jian to turn a blind eye to the eldest lady.

The third aunt also understood what Xi Changning meant. She had been married to Xi Jian for many years, and there was still some affection between the husband and wife back then. She looked at Xi Jian with anticipation, hoping that Xi Jian could say something for her.She has been bullied by the eldest lady for many years, and she doesn't believe that he doesn't know anything about it. She used to think that being honest and doing her duty would make her live in peace, but she never thought that now the eldest lady would vent her anger on her because she couldn't find anyone to discourage her.

Xi Jian also knew that he owed Bai Liu, and Bai Liu was a responsible person, and he hadn't seen her cause any trouble for so many years. Now that this matter has become a little big, how can he not understand Zhao Ruman's temper?She just relied on her natal family's power to feel that he would not dare to show her anger. Now his power has long surpassed her natal family's power, and it can even be said that her natal family's power needs to be supported by him.Just take this opportunity to cure her temper.

"Bai Liu, don't worry, I will uphold justice for you mother and daughter. Manager Hu, go and change all the servants in Qianzhu Courtyard."

Manager Hu obeyed his orders, and immediately retreated to make a move.Manager Hu thought that the third concubine might be favored, even if not for a long time, it would be in the future.

After seeing the third aunt, Xi Jian sat in the living room and waited for the doctor, while the women took care of the third aunt in the bedroom.Xi Lingyan's face was still very pale because of the previous injury, and seeing San Yiniang's haggard look, tears kept coming.Fifth Yiniang did not dislike it and personally helped Third Yiniang change her clothes. Even the porridge that the maids had just cooked was fed by Fifth Yiniang herself.

The third aunt looked at the women in the room, and she couldn't help but feel a little sad. A few days ago, she tried her best to prevent Xi Lingyan from getting close to Xi Changning, especially at the dinner where the third prince was, Lingyan showed herself too much. Not being taboo, also violated her wish to live in peace.But until now, they still help each other.

"Yu Niang, thank you. Chang Ning, this matter is embarrassing for you too." San Yiniang said weakly.

"Third Yiniang treated Chang Ning very well, and Chang Ning will reciprocate. Da Furen may be a bit procrastinated to go. Chang Ning has seen the cold wind on the face of San Yiniang, and it has been delayed for a long time. I have just let the mothers step on me. Yue Pavilion has prepared some medicines to decoct."

Xi Changning knew that this time, San Yiniang would no longer hold grudges against her. Even though San Yiniang thought she was strange and dared not approach her like this before, now she thinks that San Yiniang will never have such thoughts again. up.

"Bai Liu, what nonsense are you talking about? I think back when the eldest lady objected to my entry and that old thing Xi Jian locked me up, you were the one who sneakily brought me food. It's also about loyalty." Fifth Yiniang's arrogance and her extravagant attire really didn't match, and everyone's nervousness eased.

"Mother, what is Jianghu?" the well-behaved Xi Yue'er asked suddenly.

Fifth Yiniang smiled and didn't answer, this is the capital city, the prime minister's residence.It has nothing to do with the rivers and lakes she was thinking about. As for why she is willing to be an aunt here, looking at her children, she is sometimes confused. If she knew she shouldn't compromise with that old thing, she doesn't know what she's doing now. Muddy water is more troublesome than rivers and lakes.

The eldest lady didn't know whether she really couldn't invite the doctor or deliberately delayed the time, until Xi Changning's medicine was boiled and given to San Yiniang, the doctor followed the eldest lady with a face full of panic, guessing that the eldest lady was using power to scare her Doctor's.There were also Xi Lin and Xi Hanxue who followed randomly. The atmosphere, which was not relaxed at first, became tense again. What can the two of them do?It's not the rescuers brought by the lady.

The doctor tremblingly took the pulse of Third Auntie, and he was relieved when he found out that the diagnosis was confirmed. The diagnosis did not have much to do with what Xi Changning said, so the prescription did not have much to do with it.In addition, she had already taken the medicine before, and San Yiniang's complexion was no longer so ugly, but it may be that she was too tired from tossing and fell asleep not long after.

Hearing the doctor's diagnosis, the eldest lady also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as this bitch has nothing to do, Xi Jian can't do anything to her.For now, it's best to let it go.
