It's just that Luo Ruo's remaining power is still there, and the people in the nearby courtyard who have been bullied by Luo Ruo are obviously afraid that Luo Ruo is really what Madam Yu said, and is just temporarily having a conflict with Jiang Nianjiao. When the time comes, when she turns over, they will follow Luo Ruo's unyielding temper. , those of them who pushed her back are afraid that they will all be liquidated.
Therefore, although some people were eager to try, no one dared to speak.
Seeing this, Luo Ruo felt even more satisfied.
Sure enough, Madam, she made the right move.
However, Jiang Nianjiao directly called the name of another of her four maids, "Zhi Qiao, come out and talk to Madam about what happened in the yard just now."
When Zhi Qiao heard this, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she didn't have the slightest concern.
Although Jiang Nianjiao's four maids were all arranged by Yu Se, Zhi Qiao, although not vicious, was too stupid, so Yu Se did not win over her back then.
This also resulted in Zhi Qiao becoming the most marginalized by the other three.
Now that there was a chance for revenge, she would never let it go.
"Madam, the eldest lady is right! As soon as the eldest lady returned home today, Luo Ruo repeatedly instigated the eldest lady not to come to madam today. She also had a dispute with Xiao Yuan. She really didn't let you go in the slightest. In the eyes.”
That Xiao Yuan was the girl who had an argument with Luo Ruo just now. She was obviously still filled with righteous indignation, so she quickly followed up and said, "Madam, this Luo Ruo has indeed never taken you seriously. You can't just let it go."
For a moment, the flower hall seemed to be filled with invisible gunpowder smoke.
Jiang Nianjiao turned to look at Yu Se sincerely, "Mother, do you think I still need to keep this maid who doesn't take the master seriously and instigates disputes between me and mother all day long?"
Yu Se obviously didn't expect Jiang Nianjiao to use such a method.
It seemed that she had underestimated her in the past.
Naturally, Yu Se would not leave a useless girl behind, but she still looked hypocritical and righteous, "I personally selected this Aruo for Jiaojiao at the beginning. At that time, I thought this girl was smart and diligent, but I didn't want Aruo to become the girl now." That’s it.”
"After all, this matter is due to my neglect of discipline. Let's lock this maid in the woodshed today to think about it. When she realizes her mistake, why don't you take her back with Jiaojiao?"
Jiang Nianjiao just smiled, "My mother is really kind-hearted, but Jiaojiao can't tolerate sand in her eyes. If I condone such a girl with alien intentions today, if others see that she is not punished in the future, everyone will follow her example." . At that time, what rules will there be in Nuo Dajiang Mansion?"
Yu Se could naturally tell that Jiang Nianjiao was sarcastically saying that she was too weak and had no rules at all in running the family.
But now in order to continue to maintain his benevolent side, even if Yu Se is dissatisfied, he can't really do anything to Jiang Nianjiao.
"Jiaojiao, you are right. In that case, let's sell this Luo Ruo."
As soon as Yu Se gave this order, Luo Ruo, who was originally proud, immediately panicked and said, "Madam! Help me!"
Yu Se just gave her a comforting look. Luo Ruo naturally received this look, and the anxiety just now was easily suppressed.
She didn't believe that Yu Se was kind-hearted. After all, her stepmother who arranged so many maids around her stepdaughter who deliberately encouraged her to learn bad habits couldn't be a good person.
It's just that Luo Ruo thought that she had mastered Yu Se's unknown side, so Yu Se would definitely not dare to touch her.
So she was easily comforted by Yu Se's eyes.
Jiang Nianjiao returned to Qinglan Courtyard after greeting Yu Se.
Although she was not in the Jiang Mansion during this period, the Qinglan Courtyard was kept in order, and everything was no different from when he was still in the manor.
Even the room was still scented with her favorite violet incense, and there was a pink hibiscus flower blooming like a cloud on the sandalwood table of the Luohan couch beside her.
She had to admit that these maids were extremely fond of her when it came to taking care of her daily life.
At this moment, perhaps because Luo Ruo was punished by Jiang Nianjiao just now, they were still frightened, and each of them was like a quail.
No one dared to approach him.
Jiang Nianjiao knew very well the principle of giving a jujube to a beating. After returning to Qinglan Courtyard, she summoned all the maids in the inner and outer courtyards and told them the new rules, and they were not allowed to dominate the maids in other courtyards. Later, he praised them for taking good care of the yard during this period.
After saying this, she just signaled Cui Qiao to carry one of her boxes over.
There was actually a lot of jewelry in that box. She would only reward the maids in the courtyard with the silk flowers she got from the palace.
The silk flower jewelry in this palace is naturally much better than the crude ones sold outside the palace.
The girls in her yard are not much older than herself, and they are all of a pretty age.
Now that they have such exquisite jewelry, they are all very happy.
Even Chunhua and Wandong, who had been frightened because of Luo Ruo's punishment just now, couldn't help but feel happy at this time.
However, their joy did not last long.
Jiang Nianjiao then rewarded Zhi Qiao with several hostas and praised Zhi Qiao for her loyalty.
The expressions in the eyes of the other two maids changed when they looked at Zhi Qiao.
Zhi Qiao was completely unaware of it, and after receiving the reward, she deliberately showed off in front of them.
It looked like a victorious rooster.
Seeing him like this, the other two naturally gritted their teeth.
Now Zhi Qiao can be regarded as firmly holding back their hatred.
Thinking about it, these two maids might be more focused on fighting in the future and not pay attention to what they did.
After Jiang Nianjiao rewarded them, she asked them to retreat.
And after she changed her clothes, sat on the small table and read her storybook for a while, Yu Se's courtyard sent someone to inform her that the master was back.
Knowing that Jiang Fang was back, Jiang Nianjiao's heart suddenly sank.
She could face Yu Se's indifferent hypocrisy.
But after all, Jiang Fang was her biological father, although he never put any sincerity in her and just let her do whatever she wanted. But every time she was wronged, she couldn't help but hope that her father could devote more energy to her.
Even after her rebirth, she still wanted to find a way out for the Jiang family.
Therefore, after knowing that he had hid so much from her, and that even the death of his biological mother might be closely related to him, Jiang Nianjiao really couldn't remain calm.
When Jiang Nianjiao arrived at the dining room, Jiang Fang, who had changed into regular clothes, was already with Yu Se. Yu Se was sitting on his right hand, preparing soup for him. Although Jiang Zhi on the left still looked timid, Jiang Fang still asked her something in a pleasant manner.
In his memory, Jiang Fang had never looked at him so kindly.
After all, I am the superfluous one.
"Jiaojiao, why are you still standing at the door when everyone is here? Dinner is already served. Come in and take a seat." Yu Se spotted Jiang Nianjiao first. She spoke with a smile, as if she was not at all worried about the people Jiang Nianjiao had arranged for her just now. Resentment plucked from her hands.
Sometimes Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but admire Yu Se's ability to keep her composure at all times, her posture, as if she was always the winner.
But she did have the upper hand.
After Jiang Fang saw her coming, he couldn't help but frowned, and his expression became much gloomier.
This tall, thin and elegant middle-aged man looked slightly displeased but also looked full of superiority.
It just makes people feel cold and regretful for offending him.
"Your mother sent someone to pick you up a long time ago. Why did you come here just now?" Jiang Fang's words sounded like a storm was about to come.
When Jiang Nianjiao heard this, she naturally knew that Yu Se had used some tricks on her side.
After all, she came here after getting the news. If Yu Se's people had gone to her courtyard early as Jiang Fang said, she must have been here early by now.
It's just that his father is so partial to Se, and whatever he says seems to him to be just quibbling.
Therefore, Jiang Nianjiao did not refute, only said, "After I came back from the palace, I tidied up the girls in the courtyard again, so that they would not be so arrogant as usual that they would not even look down on the master. I think my mother sent me Maybe the maid saw that I was lecturing, so she didn't come in to disturb me. After I finished lecturing, she just entered the room. I got the news and rushed here."
Jiang Fang naturally heard about Jiang Nianjiao's punishment of a girl who bumped into Yu Se today. When he heard that Jiang Nianjiao was late because of this reason, he naturally didn't look so ugly. He just said softly: " Next time, please remember to come earlier, there is no rule of elders waiting for younger ones at the dinner table."
Jiang Nianjiao was lectured and just said yes.
Jiang Fang then asked Jiang Nianjiao to sit down.
She looked at Yu Se, who was smiling and looking like a self-evident winner. Look at Jiang Zhi on the other side, who is secretly looking at her, as if she is looking forward to sitting next to her.
Although Jiang Nianjiao disliked these two people very much.
But for those who dislike each other, choose the lesser.
Jiang Nianjiao finally sat down next to Jiang Zhi.
Fortunately, Jiang Fang didn't say anything more.
Coupled with the rule of not speaking during the meal, even though there was a thunderstorm in the hall at this time, no one would break out at this time.
It's just that this meal was extremely depressing. Even though the dishes on the table were indeed her favorite dishes as Yu Se said, she could only feel the food without tasting it.
After the meal, when they were about to leave, Jiang Fang said to Jiang Nianjiao with a gloomy face, "Follow me to the study."
Jiang Nianjiao knew that she would not be able to escape today.
The study room faces north and south, with pavilions, waterside pavilions and rockery gardens outside the eaves, which are naturally very elegant.
And the sunshine was just right today, sprinkled like little bits of gold on Jiang Nianjiao's shoes.
Jiang Nianjiao was not in the mood to care about the scenery outside the hospital.
She followed Jiang Fang, who was walking with his hands behind his back, and watched his lonely back stretched by the sunlight.
When the maid in the study saw the master coming, she immediately greeted him and then opened the study door.
There was naturally an extremely rich collection of books in this bookstore, so Jiang Fang just waved his hand to signal all the servants to leave.
Later, when Jiang Nianjiao and himself were the only ones left in the room, he said coldly, "I heard someone said that your marriage to Chen Jinghuai was your own intention?"
