It was early in the morning and it was cool outside. Outside Sixin Garden, Jiang Zhi was carrying the bird's nest she had boiled with her own hands and was going to see Yu Se.
After all, since Yu Se's accident, she hasn't been able to see her mother in the past few days because Jiang Fang said she needed to rest.
Now she was thinking that a few days had passed since Yu Se's fall. No matter how much she recuperated, Yu Se should be able to see people.
Unexpectedly, when she carried the food box over, the door to Sixinyuan was still closed, and in addition, there were actually two servants guarding the door.
Looking at this posture, Jiang Zhi only felt that this situation seemed a bit strange.
After all, when had there ever been so many people watching outside Sixin Park?
But because she missed her mother so much, she rushed over.
However, when they arrived at the mahogany gate of Sixin Garden, the two servants holding wooden sticks blocked the gate.
"Second Miss, my master has ordered that no one is allowed to visit my wife during this period."
When Jiang Zhi suddenly heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, but thinking about what Jiang Nianjiao had said to her the day before yesterday, she still expressed her request, "Two eldest brothers, I just want to see my mother? Why can't I see her?" Even if she is recuperating, it has already been three or four days, can’t I even look at her?”
The two servants didn't expect that the second young lady would talk so much, but when they thought about the relationship between the second young lady and his wife, they didn't find it strange.
They are not unreasonable people, but what happened today was the order given by the master, and they are obviously in a dilemma.
One of the servants just said, "Second Miss, please don't embarrass me. We are just slaves. How dare we disobey our master's orders?"
Another servant also came up with a bad idea and said, "If the second young lady really wants to see the madam, she might as well go and plead with the master. As long as the master agrees to let you see the madam, we will have no objection."
Jiang Zhi naturally didn't know what the man had in mind. She seemed to think that the other person's proposal was quite reasonable, so she just thought about it and actually planned to go home.
It's just that her father went to the morning court and came back a few hours later, so before begging for mercy, she handed the food box in her hand to one of them and said, "Can you send this to my mother for me?" "
The servant thought that the master only said that the wife was not allowed to see people, but he did not say that outsiders were not allowed to give things to the wife.
Moreover, during the days when Madam was being detained, he also heard from the nun who delivered meals that Madam refused to eat during these days.
If it was something sent by the second lady, the lady might have eaten it, so considering this aspect, the servant happily agreed.
Seeing that her bird's nest was successfully delivered, Jiang Zhi felt relieved and prepared to go back.
On the way back, when she passed a corner of the garden path, she heard someone mentioning her mother's name in front of her. From this, she subconsciously hid behind a clump of bamboo at the entrance of the garden.
"Mother Kong, how long do you think I plan to keep my wife in prison? The two of them have always been very close to each other, so why did they suddenly have such a quarrel?" The tall maid who is full of gossip and prying is Zhou Yuxing, the maid in the laundry room. .
This man is always a talker.
She was holding a clean bedding mat in her hand, and she was obviously going to Sixinyuan to change the bedding in the house.
The person who was called Aunt Kong was an old servant woman. This woman was thin and had high cheekbones, so her appearance always seemed a bit harsh.
And her character was as harsh as her appearance. She didn't like to discuss the rights and wrongs of her master's family. When she heard Zhou Yuxing's words, she only said coldly, "Manager Zhou, there are some things that you shouldn't ask about, so don't ask. Since the master said, Madam, if she broke her leg, then she broke her leg. If there are any other rumors in this house, don't bring any trouble to yourself."
After saying this, Grandma Kong only walked a few steps quickly, as if she wanted to distance herself from Zhou Yuxing.
After being taught such a lesson by Aunt Kong, Zhou Yuxing just snorted: "What a bull, you really act like you don't know. What is it about breaking a leg? Breaking a leg can kill people? I look at the master and I'm afraid he's waiting for death." After the child is born, I will kill the person directly. I really thought I didn’t know anything.”
Zhou Yuxing uttered a few words, and then hurriedly caught up with Grandma Kong.
A moment of failure
No one noticed that there was a girl and her maid hidden in the phoenix-tailed bamboo in the corner of the garden.
Jiang Zhi felt a little unsteady when she heard this. Although she didn't know why Yu Se had a dispute with Jiang Fang, she knew that Jiang Fang was probably really angry this time. After all, in the past few years , this kind of thing has never happened between father and mother.
The maid on the side was originally arranged by Yu Se to stay with Jiang Zhi. At this time, she was panicking after hearing what Yu Se had said.
She just whispered, "What should I do now, Miss? If Madam really has a problem, you will be alone in the future."
Jiang Zhi said softly, "I'm going to beg my father. They must have some misunderstanding. It's okay to just talk it out. Besides, my father has always been a tolerant person and he will definitely not argue with my mother."
The maid directly denied Jiang Zhi's idea, "Miss is still too naive."
Then the maid continued to fan the flames and said, "Miss, you said that the relationship between the master and the wife has always been harmonious. How can they quarrel when they are so good? I don't believe you when you say that there is no eldest lady in this."
Although Jiang Zhi was anxious, she still refuted the other party's words: "Don't talk nonsense! Sister is not such a person."
The maid seemed aggrieved and said, "Miss, aren't I also worried about the situation between the madam and you? The eldest lady and the madam have always been at odds, and if this matter really has nothing to do with the eldest lady, then why has the madam always been in charge of family affairs before?" , Now as soon as something happens to the madam, the master will give all the rights in his hands to the eldest lady."
Jiang Zhi naturally refused to believe this. She only said with a cold face, "This family belongs to my sister. My mother and I are just outsiders, especially me... I am not my father's real daughter. I can win over my father." I'm very grateful for taking you in. Isn't it normal for father to let sister take charge of things?"
Hearing Jiang Zhi's words, the girl only said, "Young lady, if you say anything stupid, of course you will be part of the Jiang family."
Then the maid just whispered, "I used to serve Madam. I heard Madam say that her former husband was a Qiangmo businessman. Do you think you look like a Qiangmo person?"
"And if you are really not a child of the Jiang family, you don't really think that I would be willing to raise children for other people, right?"
Jiang Zhi's eyes widened when she heard what the maid said, but she still subconsciously scolded her, "Don't talk nonsense!"
The maid seemed to not be able to understand Jiang Zhi's emotions and was still shouting, "How could I be talking nonsense? I have been serving the second lady in Jiang Mansion for many years. How can I not know what the tempers of the masters in this manor are like?"
"When the master's first wife was newly bereaved, there were not many women who came to the door with full belly and told her that they were pregnant with the master's child. As a result, these people were kicked out of the house without exception and even had abortions."
"Besides, Madam is my first love. Do you think he would really treat the child born to a man who married his first love so tenderly?"
"Jiang Mansion didn't rely on charity to make its fortune."
This maid's words seemed to provide a new possibility, but Jiang Zhi obviously still couldn't believe it.
After all, she had never seen the biological father her mother said she had since she became conscious. She only lived with her mother in a small courtyard in Qingyufang.
Moreover, Jiang Fang would visit her and her mother every once in a while. Every time she came, Jiang Fang would buy her various gadgets and would often hug her and lift her up high.
When she was playing with other children, she was also called a bastard without a father.
But she didn't believe it and insisted on arguing with others, saying that Jiang Fang was her father.
Even to confirm this, she took the initiative to call Jiang Fang daddy when he came over to see her and her mother.
However, she also clearly remembered that the first time she called Jiang Fang her father, Jiang Fang looked a little embarrassed, and her mother only told her that Jiang Fang was not her father but her uncle.
She didn't understand at that time, since her mother and Jiang Fang were husband and wife, and she was also born to Yu Se, why Jiang Fang was not her father.
Later, she learned about some people's affairs, and she gradually learned many things from other people's mouths.
It turns out that their family is indeed very strange, and her mother is not the wife that a matchmaker is marrying. Although people in the yard call her mother "Madam," it doesn't change that she is just an outhouse outside the house.
And if she is really Jiang Fang's child, she should be named Jiang with him. However, before entering Jiang's house, her surname was always Ye, and Ye's surname was exactly the surname of her mother's ex-husband, so she didn't even have the surname of her mother's ex-husband. She doesn't even count as a child, she is just the child of her mother and her ex-husband.
Because of this, she later continued to call Jiang Fang uncle.
It wasn't until that year that Jiang Fang married her mother and she entered the Jiang Mansion with her mother that she officially changed her surname and truly recognized Jiang Fang as her father, and she seemed to have a sense of belonging.
But this sense of belonging disappeared when she saw Jiang Nianjiao, who was locked in the room, crying and scolding her mother.
He was completely shattered when he heard old people in the house secretly discussing how his mother came to power and how she made the previous mistress angry to death.
Although Jiang Nianjiao later learned to hide her emotions, her mother used various means to get rid of those old people.
But she still felt as shameful as being tattooed.
She always kept in mind that she was not the young lady of Jiang Mansion.
In this way, it seemed that she could be separated from those things, but the girl in front of her said that she was the biological daughter of Jiang Fang and Yu Se.
How can this be?
So when the maid kept chattering, as if she must convince herself to admit that she was Jiang Fang's daughter.
She finally couldn't hold back her anger, and she growled lowly, "That's enough! Yilan! You are now my maid, not my mother's person. Don't say too many baseless things! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!" "
