Xiao Baoxin smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes.
“Third Aunt mentioned the Xiao family’s teachings to me twice in a row. It seems that she is very concerned about my upbringing. 1 didn’t think there was anything wrong with my upbringing. Every morning and evening, 1 would meditate. Other than mother-in-law instructing us to go to Yi An Hall separately and meet there so as not to disturb mother-in-law’s Buddhist worship, I followed it every day.”
“When I see my elders or peers, I greet them politely. I’ve never pointed at anyone’s nose and cursed.”
” As for beating the Second Lady and the maid, both of them proved that I didn’t do anything to her…”
“So I don’t know where there is a home that needs Third Shen’s advice over and over again?”
Xiao Baoxin’s voice had a silent aura. Once she opened her mouth to speak, she did not even gasp loudly. Even Xie Shan did not dare to interrupt again. She could not stand Xiao Baoxin’s scolding and her mother’s scolding.
By the time she finished speaking, the entire scene was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
When a newlywed married into her in-laws ‘family, which one of them wasn’t cautious and cautious, crossing the river by feeling the stones, afraid that they would offend her in-laws and make things difficult for her?
The elders ‘lecture was not reasonable, but even if it was unreasonable, he would still listen. At most, he would go back and hold his anger.
Madam Wang had been a daughter-in-law for a long time. Mother Xie was not a pushover when she was young. She did not have the temperament of the Maitreya Buddha that she had now. She did not have any sand in her eyes. Otherwise, she would not have taken a fancy to Madam Yuan. The two of them were birds of the same feather. Back then, she had been bullied by her mother-in-law. How could it be Mother Xie?
What could she do? She had to accept it.
She had finally gotten over it, but her mother-in-law was getting on in years, and Madam Yuan was disheartened and didn’t care. She had only been comfortable for a few years, but Xiao Baoxin had jumped out. She was someone who did not take the ordinary path. She did not look at the other party’s little daughter-in-law at all.
She had avoided her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, and now she had to deal with such a troublesome niece-in-law.
What kind of life was this?
“Niece-in-law, I’m persuading you nicely for the sake of the Xie family.”Madam Wang’s voice was twisted, and she could not hold back the fire in her stomach. “Do you have to speak to me in such a strange manner?”
“I’m not your proper mother-in-law, but I’m still your elder. You wouldn’t go so far as to give you some pointers out of kindness.”
“Looks like I’m just like you, meddling in other people’s business. You are doing this for Second Niangzi’s good, and I am also doing this for your good.”
“Third Shen is overthinking. Isn’t this because Third Shen is concerned about my upbringing, so I explained it to Third Shen?”Xiao Baoxin smiled brightly. Those who didn’t know better would think that they were having a heart-to-heart talk. He smiled happily.
If she had to retort, she would just retort back. After arguing with Xie Shan, she would immediately fight with Madam Wang. If word got out, it would not be good for her reputation. Moreover, she could not bear to deal with the mother and son in one day.
Get lost!
Is your face the same as the one just now?
Madam Wang took a deep breath. Xiao Baoxin was really a tough nut to crack. He was thick-skinned, and he could still speak. She was the one who was right inside and out. If they were to really argue on the spot, it would seem like she, as an elder, was disrespectful.
” Alright, I understand your intentions. Be a good person and do things in the future, whether it’s Shan ‘er or you.”Madam Wang ended the battle quickly. She waved her hand and started to chase him away.
“You guys go do your own things.”
Xiao Baoxin naturally didn’t want to continue fighting and stood up to bid farewell.
As soon as she walked out of the Third household, Lady Wang looked at Xie Shan and the two maids with a bad look.
“You traitors, how dare you bite back at Master in front of me? What’s the use of raising you for so many years? Drag you out and sell you to someone.”
The two maids were scared out of their wits when they heard that. How could they get out if they sold it to someone else?
They kowtowed and begged for mercy.
“Second Lady, please save us. Second Lady, please spare our lives.”
“Mother, they…” Xie Shan mumbled. You’ve been waiting on me for so long… Don’t sell them… At most, I’ll just beat him up…”
“Fight? Was there any use in fighting? You made Xiao Baoxin slap you so hard that you’re siding with the outsiders. What’s the use of keeping them around? At the critical moment, would they be able to block the bullet for you or push you out to block for them? Ungrateful wretch!”
“Drag him out!”
No one paid any more attention to the two maids who were kowtowing to the ground. They covered their mouths and dragged them out. This was the first time Xie Shan had encountered such a thing. These were the two maids who had followed her since she was young and were also her favorite. They had been by her side for at least eight or nine years.
“Mother, don’t sell them, okay?” She braced herself and begged for mercy
Madam Wang glared at her.” What do you know? They couldn’t even handle such a small matter, and when it came to something big, they would even sell you out. If you don’t punish them today, the people below will follow suit. No one will treat you sincerely.”
“This matter is big and small. You can’t spoil the servants ’habits.”
“Alright, if you have nothing to do, go back to your courtyard and read more books. You can’t even argue with a shrew and even asked someone to embarrass you in front of your mother.”
After sending her daughter away with a few words, she turned around and called the maid, Haitang, to her.
“Shan ‘er has grown up year after year, but her brain hasn’t improved since she was young. I’ll let you serve Shan’ er. In the future, you’ll marry her and marry into a good family.”
It had already been arranged for her ten years later. How could she dare to say that she was unwilling?
“This servant is willing.” Haitang hurriedly kowtowed. “Second Niangzi is Furen’s favorite. Furen letting this servant go over is because this servant trusts you, how could this servant not be willing? This servant will certainly do her best to serve Second Niangzi.”
Madam Wang sighed. She was also worried about Xie Shan.
“Originally, I wanted to let you go too. It’s just that you’ve always been by my side. I’m used to using you, so I can’t bear to…When you go to Second Lady’s side, wait for her well and see which one can be promoted. Then, you can choose another suitable one in our courtyard and go over together. In the future, there will only be the four of you as dowry.”
“Yes.”
Madam Wang rewarded another hundred taels of silver. This was quite a boost to Haitang’s reputation.
But in front of the mistress of the house, it was different from being in front of a little lady. Haitang couldn’t help but feel disappointed. Was this considered banishment to the frontier?
Shiliu comforted her in private. They were sisters who had been together for more than ten years, and their temperaments were similar.
“Don’t think that you’re glamorous and arrogant at Madam’s place. Rong Antang is trying to seize power from Madam. Didn’t you see that he’s not afraid at all? With the protection of the Grand Madam, our Madam’s arm couldn’t twist the thigh in the end. Old Master didn’t live up to expectations and relied on Madam to support everything. How long could he last? If you go to Second Lady, then you will be in power. If you coax Second Lady, then she will follow you in everything.”
“You’re willing to stay in this quagmire even though you have a good life..”
