What's more, if he acts without telling the Fifth Young Master, it will cause trouble for him if it is found out in the future.
Although Xiuyin was still a little worried, she saw Taoye's firm expression and didn't say anything else.
Taoye is much smarter than her and thinks more thoughtfully than her.
Nanyun only went away for a while, and then came back to talk to Taoye about the matter.
…
"Young Master, this mother of Qi relies on her master to gain favor, and she even dares to tamper with the rules in your yard. This old slave really can't stand it!"
"If I don't teach you a lesson, I'm afraid Aunt Luo will have more evil intentions in the future!"
Mother Sun looked at Rong Yue who was looking up and seemed unmoved, and her words became a little anxious.
"My aunt has done a good job in taking care of my father, and she deserves to get some benefits from the house!"
Rong Yue put the book in her hand aside and said gently.
"The eldest young master does not dare to think like this. What kind of humble background does Aunt Luo have? Now, with the help of the Duke's favor, the people under her command no longer take you seriously. If this continues, the eldest young master may suffer a loss. After all, the second young master is here too!"
Hearing Rong Yue's calm words, Sun's mother's face became even more anxious.
"It won't come to this..."
Rong Yue frowned slightly, with a look of hesitation on her face.
"I followed the late madam into the mansion. Now that the late madam has gone, my heart is with the eldest young master. To put it bluntly, the Duke of Guo was really affectionate towards the late madam and loved you and your family very much. Eldest lady, Aunt Luo has gained face in front of the Duke in recent years, and she has also fallen in love with the old lady. A concubine can take care of the affairs of the back house, and she is very thoughtful!"
"I'm not afraid of being wronged myself, but I'm really afraid that the young master will suffer a loss in the future!"
Mother Sun had already chosen the person to be in charge of the warehouse, so Mrs. Zuo didn't care much about such trivial matters. She only had to report him to him.
Unexpectedly, the old lady handed over the affairs of the sewing room to Aunt Luo, and the job was gone.
Fortunately, Qi's mother has become wise in recent years and has done a lot of things to honor her, and the eldest young master is willing to prevent her from embarrassing Aunt Luo's people too much.
But this time Madam asked someone to investigate the lake silk matter, and it turned out that there were so many people who were greedy for Qi's mother, and there were probably not even one-tenth of those who showed filial piety to her.
What frightened her even more was that today she occasionally heard the few new girls whispering that Qi’s mother had even tampered with the cloth and clothing in the eldest young master’s yard. Not only that, she also regarded the sewing room as a big one. Taking care of things is your own.
How could she still sit still.
"Mother Sun is an old person in front of her mother. She should have been entertaining her grandson at home, but for me, she still worked hard day and night in the house. I really feel bad about it. I don't understand the affairs of the inner house. Mother Sun takes care of the food herself. Bar!"
"If I wrong you, I'm afraid my mother will blame me too!"
Rong Yue had a guilty and embarrassed look on her face.
"Young master, you have embarrassed this old slave. Madam is so kind to me. It is only right for me to think about you!"
Mother Sun beamed when she heard Rong Yue's words.
With her master's words, she didn't have to worry.
It just happened that those things that she didn't like were disposed of with Madam's hands.
"Young Master, this is my little thought, please keep it!"
Before leaving, Sun's mother took out a few banknotes from her sleeves and placed them in Rong Yue's hand.
"Young master, don't refuse. This old slave relies on you and his wife for what he is today. It's not easy for you in this house. It's always good to have more money with you!"
She had said this very smoothly.
Rong Yue looked helpless and sad.
Mother Sun chatted a few more words and then left.
After waiting for others to go out, Rong Yue's eyes suddenly turned cold, and her whole person exuded a gloomy aura.
Qiu Lian, who was standing aside, was shaking slightly and didn't dare to raise her head.
"The tea is cold!"
Rong Yue glanced at the shaking body.
"Slave, please go and make another cup for the eldest young master!"
Qiulian didn't dare to delay. She bowed and took the tea cup.
"Master, please have tea!"
Qiulian tried her best to resist the trembling in her hands and carefully placed the steaming tea cup next to Rong Jiu's hand.
"Are you scared?"
"I dare not...I don't have any..."
The voice of the question was soft and soft, but Qiu Lian's legs softened and she knelt down in front of Rong Yue.
The body was shaking even more violently.
After a moment, there was a sharp pain in his arm, followed by a burning sensation that seeped into his clothes.
"This slave deserves to die, please punish me, Master!"
As soon as the sound of the tea cup breaking rang in her ears, Qiu Lian panicked, but her words of apology were spoken very smoothly.
"Slave, I'll take care of you now... um..."
Qiulian was about to pick up the fragments when she was held by her arm. The holding place happened to be the place where she had been hit and burned by hot water. The pain was extremely painful, but a cry of pain just escaped from her mouth. She gritted her teeth and held back.
But the strength in her hands became heavier and heavier. Qiulian did not dare to make a sound and looked at the person above her with pleading eyes.
"You are injured, how can you still pack these things!"
"Get up quickly!"
"Slave, thank you, Master, for your consideration!"
Qiulian's face turned pale in pain, but she forced a smile.
"Somebody come!"
Two maids entered in response.
"Pick up the debris on the ground, be careful with your hands, and go get some medicine!"
Rong Yue said gently to the two of them.
"yes!"
One went to pick up the broken porcelain on the ground, and the other went out to get medicine.
"Why are you so careless?"
The maid picked up the broken porcelain pieces and went out, and when she came in with a cloth to wipe the tea on the floor, she saw the young master applying medicine to Qiu Lian with a gentle look on his face, focused and gentle.
The eldest young master is really elegant and gentle.
While the maid was wiping the floor, she quietly glanced up a few times. When her face turned slightly red, she hurriedly lowered her head.
Qiulian saw this man's actions in her eyes, and what flashed in her eyes was not jealousy, but joy.
"Take the medicine with you!"
The maid wanted to stay a little longer, so she pretended to be working hard to mop the floor. It wasn't until a gentle voice came from above that she stood up, took the medicine, and left reluctantly.
"What were you happy about just now?"
After they walked away, Rong Yue asked with a smile.
"No... I have done something wrong, how can I be happy!"
Qiulian didn't expect that her flash of joy would be seen, and her face was full of panic and fear.
"Don't worry, you've served me so well, I won't accept any other wives!"
Rong Yue gently brushed Qiu Lian's face with gentle hands, but the gloom in her eyes made Qiu Lian tremble.
That's right, the eldest young master looks like a gentle gentleman in front of others, but he is so vicious behind others. The fewer people who know this secret, the better.
But does she deserve these tortures?
"Slave, thank you, Master, for your love!"
But he didn't dare to show any of the emotions in his heart on his face.
