Lian'er said angrily: "You!"
Wei Jingwei waved her hand, glanced at her wrist, and said with a hint of irony: "This jade bracelet is not cheap, I guess it will cost at least fifty taels of silver to get it, so I'd better say less. Then. I want to ask Mother Li, where did your fifty taels come from? The position of the kitchen stewardess is only one tael a month. Have you been saving for four years without eating or drinking? "
Su Er, who was behind her, took two steps forward, approached Wei Jingwei and smiled, "Miss, it's only been two years since Mother Li entered my Mei Mansion."
After hearing this, Wei Jingwei looked at Granny Li coldly, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. He winked at the rough lady behind him.
"You two, come up, hold her down, and beat her. Beat this woman who disrespects her master and has no respect for her!"
The two rough ladies hesitated for a while. Seeing that Wei Jingwei, who was sitting there, looked very impressive today, even more powerful than his wife, they had no choice but to approach Mrs. Li slowly.
Mrs. Li stood there, a little panicked as she watched the two people getting closer and closer. Her expression was not as calm as before, and she shouted: "Madam, you can't touch me! I, Mrs. Li, am an old slave of the Mei Mansion, and my daughter is even more so. The maid in front of the old lady! The old lady will not condone you treating me like this!"
Wei Jingwei sneered, stroked the folds of her skirt and stood up, saying arrogantly: "It would be a joke if Madam fell on the face of my mistress of the Mei family because of you, a naughty slave. What are you waiting for? Give me a hard slap beat."
Soon, Mrs. Li's screams of "ouch, ouch," echoed around the kitchen.
While screaming and cursing, "Madam, if you treat your servant like this, you will be scolded if you tell me... Ouch, it hurts me to death."
"I want to see who would scold me for a troublesome slave."
After a few moments, Mrs. Li's scolding turned into a cry for mercy, and her voice gradually became weaker.
After two more blows, Wei Jingwei called to stop.
Where Mrs. Li was lying, she looked like a dead pig, and the clothes on her body were soaked with traces of blood.
The ladies in the kitchen who were with him all had pale faces and stood shivering, not daring to take a breath. Looking at Wei Jingwei now, she is as scared as looking at the King of Hell.
Lian'er couldn't be happier as she watched Granny Li being beaten.
In the past, Hongxiayuan was the most angry with her, and she refused to give him anything he wanted. He used his wife and her daughter Xing'er to show off in the yard and didn't take them seriously.
And today the young lady was so high-spirited that she was killing everyone. She actually felt that this was what the young lady should be like.
After a long time, I don't know who secretly sent the message. Soon, a maid in apricot clothes and gold and silver came running quickly on the gravel road.
She may have run in a hurry, her bun was messy, and there were a lot of sweat beads on her forehead.
As she got closer, she saw Mrs. Li lying there, not knowing whether she was alive or dead. She quickly rushed towards her and shouted, "Mother! Mother! What's wrong with you? My daughter is here. Don't scare her." She turned around and looked at the other servants fiercely. shouted, "You are all dead, why don't you call a doctor quickly? If I had a mother, I would definitely make you look good."
Wei Jingwei walked up to the crowd, looked at Xing'er and said with a smile, "I'm the one who beat you, whoever you want is good-looking."
Xing'er was stunned by her words. She checked Mrs. Li's injuries with her hands and said coldly after a while: "Madam, she cleaned up the big kitchen when she wanted to. Why did you treat my mother so hard? My mother is not yet in high school." He was already working in the kitchen at that time, and it has been more than ten years now. If you beat the house slaves indiscriminately like this, I am afraid it will damage my wife's reputation if you tell me. I will report this to the old lady, and she will explain it herself later. "
After saying that, he called some servants to carry Mrs. Li. He actually looked like he didn't take Wei Jingwei seriously at all.
Wei Jingwei sighed in her heart. In her last life, as the new wife, she was thin-skinned and meek-tempered. In addition, she always felt that she could not stand up for the Mei family's heirs. She usually behaved very gently, but she actually let these servants kick her nose in the face. .
Now that I know it was all a lie that I couldn't have children, those guilts have long since disappeared, and there is only resentment in my heart.
"Okay, then let's go and talk things over in front of the old lady."
Myolie thought it was just a matter of scaring her, but she didn't expect that Wei Jingwei turned around and walked towards the old lady without stopping.
She suddenly felt anxious.
Over the years, her mother has often withheld food from the house, or given it away to herself to eat innumerable quantities. If you really count, they are unreasonable.
But when she thought about how her wife treated and harassed Wei Jingwei on weekdays, she regained some confidence in her heart.
After turning around and hurriedly calling the servants to take care of her mother, she hurried towards the old lady.
Inside Ci'an Hall.
Wei Jingwei told what happened and stood aside.
Mei's mother is sitting at the main seat. Her hair is a little gray, she is wearing fine cloth, and she wears a large emerald on her forehead. This is the best gemstone in Wei Jingwei's dowry when she first came in. , made it for her.
Oh, it’s really not worth it.
Soon she raised her eyes and looked at Wei Jingwei seriously, with obvious displeasure and disdain in her eyes.
"Ms. Wei, how come you, a daughter of a noble family, are so ready to kill someone like a shrew. Mrs. Li is old and an old member of my Mei family. How can you do it? It's so ugly to say that, She's a girl from an aristocratic family, I don't think she's any different from a country girl." After saying that, he glanced at her.
Wei Jingwei expected that the old lady would not help her. In her eyes, she was just a fool who helped his son, took care of her bastard grandson, and had some money. Who will help her?
Wei Jingwei took a step forward, lowered her head and said crisply: "Madam, you don't know something. I have gone through the ledger today, and none of the numbers in the kitchen match up."
Xing'er hurried over and screamed secretly when she heard Wei Jingwei's words as soon as she entered the door. In the blink of an eye, she cried with red eyes: "Madam, my mother is about to be beaten to death. You must make the decision for me. Madam is the master." Mother, but you can’t kill us so casually.”
She cried very sadly, and as she spoke, she threw herself at the old lady's feet, pulling on the hem of her skirt, looking heartbroken and helpless.
There are three maids in total that Mei Mu is used to. Xing'er is a sweet-talking girl who usually waits in front of her and pours out nice words as if they are free, so she is very pleased with her.
Seeing that the maid she loved was wronged, her face instantly darkened.
"Ms. Wei, Mrs. Li, let this matter go. Send someone back to find a good doctor and send some supplements to apologize properly."
