Everyone was stunned for a moment. Jiang Ruyan on the ground showed a painful expression. She slowly raised her hand and saw that a long gash had been cut in her palm by the gravel on the ground, and blood was flowing continuously.
"Yao'er, you, you pushed me?"
"You can't do anything well, and you still have the nerve to make trouble here!"
Liu Wenyao was shocked when he saw the blood, but then he thought about it and thought he had done something wrong?
In the past, when his aunt was in charge of the family, there was nothing in his yard. But now that his biological mother is here, his original treatment has plummeted!
If she doesn't keep thinking about him, why can't he come to Luoxueyuan to eat something good?
Seeing the disgusted expressions of Liu Wenyao and Liu Wenxin, Jiang Ruyan felt her heart break, and heard the gloating curses from the servants in the courtyard who didn't know the truth.
"Why did the young master push you? The old lady only took you in for the sake of the prince's concubine. Does she really think of herself as her master?"
"Animals know how to wag their tails when they see their benefactors, unlike some animals that are inferior to animals and only bite people randomly!"
Jiang Ruyan's face was on fire from being scolded, and before her tears could fall, a pair of clean embroidered shoes appeared in front of her eyes.
"Sister, why are you bothering me? When I was in the General's Mansion, no one ever said a harsh word to you or slapped you in the face!"
"But what about now? It seems that if anyone in the Hou family is unhappy, they can come over and slap you twice!"
Xia Yunxian's sympathetic eyes deeply hurt Jiang Ruyan's dignity. Isn't it uncomfortable to be treated like this by a child who has high hopes for her?
Not only that, he held the family in his hands, but he didn't dare to offend anyone. He tried his best to please, but ended up being a human being inside and out.
This feeling must be more painful and profound than her last life!
She said that she would make these people experience the pain she suffered back then!
Jiang Ruyan finally left in despair, fearing that if she continued to pester, she would annoy the two children even more.
During this period, she sold many servants, but now along the way, the huge garden was actually empty. She had not had a full meal, and her staggering steps made her figure even more desolate.
Looking at the blood that has not yet dried up on her palm, she has always had old wounds and new wounds since when. Even if she forced a smile, her heart could not stop feeling cold.
Is it her fault that there is only an empty shell left in the Hou Mansion?
Is this really the blessing she wants to enjoy?
…
That night, there was some movement outside the courtyard, which seemed to be the sound of a woman crying.
Xia Yunxian put on his coat and stood up, while Chunxiao also came out of the house vigilantly. Under the night, Xiao Wu, dressed in black, was lazily leaning against the wall, bathing in the bright moonlight, nibbling on the food specially left for him. Ribs.
Although he couldn't see his expression clearly, there was a sense of comfort and leisure all over his body.
"To be honest, who is a nurse who has a better life than him?" Not to mention that the price of food has increased three times, even if you have money, you may not be able to buy it, let alone the fragrant braised meat!
"Little girl, I won't eat your meat for free!"
Xiao Wu's ears were very good. He walked out of the darkness and pointed at the wall with a sly smile.
The master and servant looked up and couldn't help but be stunned.
Under the mottled moon shadow, there were actually two figures sitting there tremblingly.
"Why is there another thief?!" Chunxiao took a breath, but heard the person on the wall shout in a suppressed voice, "The Crown Princess is the youngest!"
Chunxiao frowned, feeling that something sounded familiar. When he took a closer look, he turned out to be the manager!
And the person next to him was lowering his head and covering his face nervously with a handkerchief, but Chunxiao still recognized it. It was Zhuye, the maid next to the second lady!
"what happened?"
"I was on patrol at night when I saw this steward coming to steal something with a ladder. I waited until he climbed up the wall and moved the ladder away!"
Xiao Wu took out a handful of raw meat, which he had snatched from the steward.
Then he pointed at the bamboo leaves, "As for this maid, I saw her sneaking around the corner and thought she might be here to take advantage of the sheep, so I kindly sent her up with her!"
Chunxiao couldn't help but burst into laughter. At this time, the two people on the wall wanted to die. They were really ashamed, especially Zhuye.
How could she have imagined that she would suffer disaster before she even took action!
Can you blame her?
I can only blame the fact that the smell of pork ribs in Luoxueyuan lingers all night long, how can I bear it!
Moreover, there were no guards in the yard just now, but why did it float in front of him in the blink of an eye, and he couldn't even run away!
"As soon as daybreak, send them to the government."
Xia Yunxian gave instructions lightly, which shocked the two people on the wall to say incoherently, "The imperial concubine can't help me. I have served you with all your heart and soul in the Marquis Mansion for many years. You just want to show off your face, okay?" "
"It sounds like you gave me face before climbing the wall!"
"No, no, no, it's really the old lady..."
"Mother-in-law asked you to steal it?"
The manager was about to cry but had no tears. How could he dare to tell the truth? He would not survive if he offended the old lady!
"What about you? Could it be that my sister-in-law asked you to steal it?"
Xia Yunxian looked at Zhuye again. The maid's eyes were red and her mouth was closed tightly, obviously she did not dare to answer.
"Okay, wait until you tell the truth and come down later!"
Xia Yunxian gave a look, and Chunxiao didn't forget to laugh before turning around, "You two have to hold on tight, the wind will blow you down in a while, and your legs will be broken even if you don't die!"
A gust of cold wind blew by, causing the two people on the wall to scream.
"What are you afraid of? I just blew a breath."
At some point, Xiao Wu jumped up and squatted on the wall, smiling like an old fox. It was a long night, but now he was not bored anymore!
The steward and Zhuye's hearts almost jumped out of their chests. What's going on...
The next day, there was another sweet smell floating in the Luoxue Courtyard.
The servants sat around, eating green onion pancakes and drinking sweet potato porridge, while the steward and Zhuye were still lying on the wall with pale faces, and could only look at them.
"Xia Yunxian, you are going too far!"
The second lady, Wen Shi, saw that her maid had not returned last night, so she had a bad feeling in her heart. Now she couldn't help but come over to take a look. She was so shocked by the sight in front of her that her eyes changed.
"Where do you start talking about brothers and sisters?"
Xia Yunxian pretended to be confused, and Wenshi immediately sneered, "It was in vain that I worried about the wall in your yard and the inconvenience of traveling, so I asked the maid next to me to come over and ask if I could help. You actually ruined other people's feelings like this?! "
"I asked this question last night, but she didn't dare to say a word. It seems that she didn't understand the feelings of her younger siblings. Such a stupid maid should have been sold out, right?"
At this time, he saw Mrs. Liu coming in a hurry from a distance, and Wen went forward to greet her with joy.
"Mother-in-law, this daughter-in-law of the Hou family cannot stay any longer! Xia Yunxian is so arrogant that she plans to sell off the maids in our courtyard! She has handed over the power of running the house, and she still thinks she is the mistress of the house!"
As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Liu's expression changed and she immediately yelled, "You bastard!"
Wen's mouth curled up, with a proud smile on his face, as if he was waiting for a good show.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Liu's spittle sprayed onto her face, "I said you are a bastard! You can also call the Crown Princess's name? There are no rules!"
