Mei Yuanqing glanced at the servants kneeling on the ground and was convinced, "It's really that serious."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask this man Yazi."
Having said that, Ren Yazi, who was standing by, rubbed his hands in embarrassment. Although the Mei family was not a powerful person, this lady obviously wanted to protect these servants. It would be disadvantageous if she forced herself to oppose them...
He showed an ugly smile and nodded, "Madam is right, this matter...if it is not done carefully, it is indeed easy to leave a trace, but." He changed his voice, "Little I will handle it well and give it some training before selling it.”
After receiving the accurate information, Mei Yuanqing glanced angrily at Zhang Ruoruo, who was shrinking there and no longer arrogant. "Okay, you are going to cause great trouble to my Mei family!"
"I...I didn't know it would be like this...I just want to share the burden for you." Zhang Ruoruo was frightened by Mei Yuanqing's angry look, and her eyes became red.
Carefully, he stepped forward and grabbed his sleeves to beg for mercy, "Master, I didn't mean it. You know me. I just did it for your own good..."
Ren Yazi:..........
What's the matter? In this house, the master is not the master, and the aunt is not the aunt.
This was the first time he saw it.
It seems that the rumors about the Mei family are indeed true.
"Then... these slaves." Ren Yazi looked at the servants kneeling on the ground with some reluctance, and asked with hope: "Are you still selling them?"
"I'm not selling it anymore. Could you please come and take a trip." Mei Yuanqing's face was ashen, but he still knew that it was best not to offend these people in the market, so he sent the little maid to give them away properly.
Although Ren Yazi regretted that the business was not completed, he still left.
"Can you think about it before doing anything in the future? Now that you are in charge, you should stop causing trouble for me. Otherwise, I think it would be better to change to another person in charge." Mei Yuanqing said and shook his head angrily. Sleeves and left angrily.
Zhang Ruoruo opened his mouth, his face full of grievances.
How does she know all the details here? It used to be much simpler in the village.
Turning around, she saw that the servants who had almost been betrayed just now were looking at her with resentment. She was a little frightened, but she didn't say anything and turned around and left.
"Okay, the weather is very cold. Stop blowing the wind here. Everyone should go back to the original place and continue working." Su'er urged.
Some maids had been kneeling for a long time, and their movements when getting up were shaky, and they almost fell down several times. It was only through the help of people on both sides that I could stand firm.
The maids who were crying just now, all of their faces were turned into kittens from crying, but they still stepped forward and thanked Wei Jingwei sincerely.
"Thank you Madam for your kindness today. I have nothing to repay Madam. I just wish Madam everything goes well and serve Madam well from now on." He said and wiped away the tears of fear on his face.
Just a little bit, just a little bit, they were going to go to that nasty place.
The other women and maids also talked in various directions.
"No, Madam has the heart of a Bodhisattva. It is different from someone else. From now on, we will all obey Madam's orders."
"The madam said let us go east, but we will never go west."
"Madam is my reborn parent."
Listening to their more exaggerated words, Wei Jingwei was rarely amused. Who doesn't like to repay a favor.
Even the common people understand this truth, but the one who has read countless books by saints and sages does not understand it. Maybe he has read it into the belly of a dog.
She waved her hand, "Okay, don't say anything. You are freezing in the cold wind today, so be careful. I will ask Lian'er to go to the kitchen later and ask someone to prepare more brown sugar ginger water, and everyone will drink one. The bowl is also good for dispersing cold."
"Yes, everyone has a bowl." Lian'er tilted her chin and nodded very proudly.
How could the servants not be grateful? What's more, this was Madam's personal maid, so her status and affection were naturally different, and they all praised Miss Lian'er. Nice words came out one after another as if they were free of charge.
Everyone thanked him again.
On the way back to Hongxia Pavilion.
"Miss, you are really good-tempered today. That Aunt Zhang is clearly targeting our Hongxia Pavilion and Aunt Ruan. I just took a closer look. Among the servants, these two courtyards have the most people." Lian'er hummed. He snorted, "I see. She just wants no one to take care of her. She doesn't want to sell any of her land."
Wei Jingwei rubbed her cold hands and smiled, "Now that you understand everything, some people just don't understand. It's probably a blind thing."
Lian'er didn't understand this and scratched her head.
However, Lian'er's eyes flashed and she answered with a smile, "My slave, look at it, it's just a blindfold. It's obvious that your eyesight is not good, just let it be."
Wei Jingwei paused slightly and said with a smile: "My good Su'er, you are very sharp-tongued now."
Su'er smiled and said nothing.
In just one afternoon, the news of Zhang Ruoruo selling his servants at will spread throughout the Mei Mansion.
Those who were almost ruined by betrayal must not seize the opportunity to smear them vigorously.
Mei Yuanqing didn't expect to seal the matter. Zhang Ruoruo grew up in the countryside, a farm girl, and she didn't know that the servants were very talkative. On the next day, many people in Beijing knew about it.
Everyone was laughing behind their backs, it was really eye-opening for the Mei family to actually use their aunt as their mistress and do such a despicable thing.
The Mei family's reputation among people in Beijing has fallen again and again.
Some censors who couldn't stand it took a look at Mei Yuanqing's book and said that he was in a mess and didn't distinguish between priorities.
There were many people who suddenly appeared in the court and advocated that the Holy Lord punish Mei Yuanqing to prove the rules.
The Holy Emperor was also a little confused. He had very few memories of Mei Yuanqing. Except for the day after he became the number one scholar, this person had not been named in front of him. In the past few days, I have learned a lot about him.
I was also very disdainful in my heart.
He immediately ordered that Mei Yuanqing, who was expected to be promoted this year, was removed from the promotion list.
In the days that followed, everyone in Zhang Ruoruo's yard was made things difficult for them, whether they came out to get food, hot water, or anything else, and nothing went as they wished.
When I asked for a meal, the dishes were either cold or too greasy.
Asking means saving firewood.
He asked for hot water, but it took several hours to boil the hot water before bringing it out. As a result, Zhang Ruoruo could only drink some cold water when he was thirsty. As a result, he had a stomachache that day. Running back and forth nonstop.
There were too many people who came to ask questions, and they were too concerned about pregnant people like the old lady and Aunt Ruan.
