"My aunt is also on lockdown, so she can't even come and see with her own eyes what kind of life I am living."

"I heard that my aunt is ill and I can't go see her."

"These days I have also thought about swallowing my anger."

"But my mother-in-law often shouts no answer outside."

"Even when the maid is in the house, she always stares at me with a look of disgust and monitors my every move."

"Then I thought, since my father won't come back to save me, I can only be more cruel to save myself. I can't be bullied to death by them."

"I asked them to do something just now, but they complained a lot and didn't do it well, so I took the hairpin and taught them a lesson."

"Unexpectedly, my father came, and there was no news in advance. Otherwise, why would I pretend to be evil and ruin my own reputation?"

Lu Qianqian burst into tears and explained the whole story with a trembling voice.

He quickly and eloquently described himself as the one who had been most wronged and repeatedly bullied.

The maids and ladies kneeling on the ground were all in tears, kowtowing repeatedly and saying that they were wronged.

"Say, what's going on?!"

Lu Tianyao looked at the child who was complaining pitifully about his grievances, and his heart was about to be shaken.

But thinking of what she just said in the study room, her anger suddenly surged up again.

He pointed to the woman kneeling on the ground.

That woman was the one who was punished by Lu Qianqian to kneel in the snow last time for blocking Lu Qianqian from going out.

Later, Grandma Lin asked her to recuperate in the house.

In addition to catching the wind and cold, my legs are also frozen. I need to take good care of them, otherwise I will become a cold-legged person. How will I spend the rest of my life?

In those days, this maid was the only one who served Lu Qianqian.

Lu Qianqian was scolded by Granny Lin, and Housekeeper Zhou also told her to calm down, otherwise it would be difficult to explain when the head of the family came back.

She was still making trouble at first, until the women sent by her aunt were also removed. I heard that many people in the aunt's courtyard were also laid off.

Knowing that Lu Weiyu was aggressive and Housekeeper Zhou wouldn't help them, they didn't dare to cause trouble again.

But she just didn't dare to make a big fuss, fearing that it would be detrimental to her if word spread.

In her own courtyard, she turned all her dissatisfaction and unwillingness into anger towards the maids and women around her.

If something doesn't go your way, he'll be beaten or scolded.

The mother-in-law also complained to Housekeeper Zhou.

But she complained, and Lu Qianqian used a hairpin to prick the maid in a hard-to-see place.

The mother-in-law felt sorry for the maid, so she could only endure it and did not dare to say anything more.

The rest of Yue Huaxuan's days were basically spent with Lu Qianqian pretending to be good and abusing the maid and mother-in-law.

Lu Qianqian originally thought that God was unaware of it, but she didn't expect her father to come to Yuehuaxuan in person.

Instead of asking her to go to Jinfeng Hall to pay her respects after returning home.

But she was smarter than her aunt, and she had already thought about how to defend herself if someone discovered her.

So, what if I get caught by my father?

It was just the maid who deliberately angered her and let her father see her when she fought back.

According to Lu Tianyao's request, the woman carefully transferred the two of them to Yuehuaxuan and told them the whole story.

Including things every day.

Why was she punished to kneel in the snow, and why didn't she respond when he called her? Because she was recuperating in the house and didn't know that the second lady called her.

The maid didn't dare to be lazy when serving her closely, but she was often deliberately manipulated by the second lady to do things that were harsh to find trouble.

for example:

On a cold day, I wash my handkerchief with snow under the eaves;

Being called out in the middle of the night to go outside to add fuel to the fire to the earth dragon;

He was not allowed to light the fire bed at night, but he kept shouting that it was cold. Now he had to pour soup, and now he had to move the charcoal cage, and now he shouted that it was hot;

During the day, I started to do various things deliberately looking for trouble since I got up early.

If someone doesn't get his way, he'll be beaten with a duster, or poured with tea. In the past few days, it's escalated to pricking him with a hairpin.

"Please tell me from the head of the family, if my mother-in-law says anything that is not true, she will accept the punishment voluntarily, regardless of life or death."

"Please ask the head of the house to find some reliable women to examine Hong'er's injuries. Even her frozen hands are visible."

"Just now, Hong'er washed her clothes in cold water and was called to grind the ink. Her hand was stiff and the ink stick slipped, so the second lady took a hairpin and pierced her arm here."

"I didn't dare to anger the second young lady just now. I almost got stabbed even though I tried to persuade her with good words."

When the mother-in-law was so excited, she forgot to be afraid. She was thinking about dying anyway. She was not even afraid of death anymore, so why should she hide it?

But please be a sensible person. If you can stay away from this ruthless concubine, there will be a glimmer of hope.

At that moment, the mother-in-law pointed at the many injured places of the maid Hong'er.

He also grabbed Hong'er's hands and showed Lu Tianyao that they were covered in frostbite.

"There are only two people in our courtyard. If the maid doesn't do the laundry, do you want me to do it?"

Lu Qianqian's eyes flashed slightly, and she began to grab her attention eagerly.

"It's harder when the weather is cold. Am I afraid that you'll have to do the hard work yourself so I have to do it myself?"

"Father asked you to serve me, not me to serve you!"

This... seems to make sense.

Lu Tianyao said quietly: "It's too cold to boil some hot water. There is no stove in the courtyard. Is it difficult to find Butler Zhou to get one?"

He didn't believe that Housekeeper Zhou would allow his servants to bully the young lady. The concubine was also a young lady!

Wei Yu would never do such a blatant thing.

And he also knew that Wei Yu was just learning to take charge of the family and was not involved in everything.

Yuehuaxuan's trivial matters cannot be blamed on Weiyu.

Qianqian just said so many words, openly and secretly accusing Weiyu of taking the opportunity to bully her.

Even the maid and mother-in-law around her were framing her, leaving her speechless.

But what he saw was not the case.

"Although there is no small kitchen in this courtyard, there is also a miscellaneous room." The mother-in-law said quickly.

"On weekdays, the servants will gather here to boil some tea, hot water, and have buckets filled with water for washing things."

"Although there aren't many servants in the courtyard now, Hong'er and I usually do things here."

"It's not too cold even if the stove is burning, and there's hot water available."

"The second young lady said that she shouted at us and told us not to go too far, so she just did things in the corridor."

"They also said there was not enough charcoal, and we were not allowed to burn the stove except for the hot water she used for hot tea."

"Wash the handkerchief with snow to save water so that no one can bring it to you."

"But the head of the family, although there are only two people serving me in the courtyard, Hong'er."

"But these daily chores are actually taken care of by women and maids outside. They just don't stay here to do errands. They just leave after finishing the work."

"Even for starching and washing clothes, there is also a laundry room."

"Hong'er and I were originally sent here to serve in the house."

"Ever since I blocked the second young lady from going to Suxintang early that morning, and she was scolded by Granny Lin, she has been trying different ways to rub off on me and Hong'er."

"Those things that are done by the servants in the outer courtyard are also done by us. There is no one to serve in the house, and it is our fault that we are not allowed to do it."

The mother-in-law is now ready to go all out and just wants to reveal all the other sides of this second young lady.

If she can't find a chance to survive this time, she and Hong'er may not have a way to survive in this hospital in the future.

She can complain and expose, but she can't start a direct fight with the second lady.
