Chapter 117 Expulsion
After finishing it, you can watch it with confidence! (*^__^*) Hehe...
=============================
Jinxiu was inexplicably for a moment, and she didn't know what Madam Zhang had done and was discovered by the old lady, which made her so annoyed that she naturally had no way to persuade her. She had to squat down silently and start tidying up the broken tea cup.
The old lady snorted, finally suffocated a little, and said, "Don't go and make trouble, scratch your hands carefully. Just ask the maids to do it, and you can pour me a cup of tea!"
Jinxiu responded quickly and stepped out, but soon he walked slowly with a cup of new tea.
The old lady took a sip and the fresh and elegant taste seemed to spread from the tip of her tongue to the bottom of her heart, so she was less angry.
After a while, Huaping took Madam Zhang back to the yard. She stopped just when she reached the door and said that the old woman had other instructions, and turned around and left. Madam Zhang did not doubt that there was him. She lifted the curtain and walked in. Huaping just glanced at her faintly. When she came back again, there were already two thick and thick women around her.
As soon as Madam Zhang entered the door, she noticed the tension in the room, especially the porcelain pieces that were broken into pieces on the ground. She couldn't help but be surprised. She looked at the old lady and asked with great concern: "Old lady, what's wrong? Who made you angry?"
When the old lady heard her question, she became more and more angry. She was leaning against the kang to rest, but then she sat up, took the pieces of paper on the kang table and threw it into Madam Zhang's face, and said angrily: "Who makes me angry? Apart from you, a foolish slave, who else is so bold?!"
Madam Zhang was beaten to death by the old lady all at once. She didn't recognize much and couldn't understand what was written on the paper. She could only look at the old lady blankly, with an innocent look on her face.
The old lady rubbed her forehead with a headache, and then asked Jinxiu to go over and talk to her one by one. After listening to it, she felt chill all over.
The paper is nothing more than that because she is trusted by the old lady, she bullies others outside with power, and her family is not at ease. She also does evil things in the name of the General's Mansion. This kind of thing is not surprising. Among the wealthy families in the capital, there are not so many favored mothers. The higher the status of the master's family, the more straight the body of the person below. There are many things like this that pretend to be a tiger's power. As long as there is no major incident, the master's family will be shameless. Most people turn a blind eye.
But the old lady was a little disgusted with Madam Zhang, and now she became more and more disliked when she saw this. She always valued the reputation of the General's Mansion very much, for fear of being talked about by others, and was a small number of people, did not understand the rules, and mocked them as orphans and widows. Isn't Madam Zhang doing this clearly giving a handle to those who don't like the General's Mansion? This is the most unforgivable thing about Madam.
She looked at Madam Zhang hatefully, with a gloom in her eyes. She asked, "What else do you have to say?!"
When Madam Zhang came to her senses, her first reaction was to cry for justice. She knelt down with a "thump" and kowtowed hard and said, "Old lady, the young man has never done these things before! The young man has never dared to betray the general's mansion. This must be someone who secretly framed the young man!"
She gritted her teeth and knocked on the ground with a sound of "dongdong" and kept knocking her head.
Seeing that she was still stubborn, the old lady couldn't help feeling more and more annoyed. A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She looked at her and said, "Framed? Who is so idle to frame you, a servant?"
Do she be stupid? What does it mean to frame her? These things have been happening for a few years, at different times and at different places. Even if someone really wants to frame her, will she still be in the frame-up stage after being delayed for more than ten years? If so, that person would be too concerned about a slave.
Madam Zhang didn't hear the ridicule in her words, racked her brains to find a way to escape. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration came to think of a scapegoat, and hurriedly said it, "It must be Aunt Pei Grandma! She had bribed me and wanted to deceive the old lady before, and I didn't agree, so she held a grudge and deliberately made someone do such a thing and framed me. The old lady clearly understands that she must make the decision for me!"
After she said that, she almost burst into tears, walked to the old lady's feet and hugged her calves. It was so miserable. If someone who didn't know the truth, would he think that she was indeed wronged?
A trace of disappointment and boredom flashed in the old lady's eyes, and then she calmed down. Looking at the person who had been with her for many years, the former maid and the current manager, she couldn't help but sigh deeply and said tiredly: "Xiuyu, you have been by my side since childhood. You know my personality better than others. You know what kind of person I am, so why do you knowingly commit it? As the old Fengjun of the General's Mansion, I will become a model for the whole family every move. The same is true for the people around me. You are all servants of the General's Mansion and must abide by the rules of the General's Mansion. This is the second time you have broken the rules of the General's Mansion. I can't spare you anymore, but thinking about the past relationship, I don't want to kill you. Go, I will exchange my body contract for you, and you will be born with your family."
When Madam Zhang heard this, she was shocked and almost fainted.
When a free man is not free to be a servant in the general's mansion? As the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's house, the servants in the general's mansion will have more momentum than the servants in other mansions, and ordinary people dare not provoke him at all. What's more, she is a very decent servant in the family, and she is higher than ordinary servants. Even some sesame officials in the capital will not dare to cause trouble for them. However, once they go independently, not only will this glory be gone, but more importantly, the people without support, how can they live in this magnificent but treacherous capital? Do you still want them to return to that poor countryside? She will not agree even if she beats her to death!
So she kept the old lady's legs tightly and cried, swearing that she had never done anything like that before, and then begged the old lady to keep her and not drive her out of the mansion.
The old lady was impatient and kicked her away, angrily: "The evidence is conclusive. You don't admit your mistakes and punish me. I have no repentance yet. How dare I use such a slave? How can I feel at ease? I have made up my mind about this matter. You don't have to say more. If you have more words, just sell it directly. If you don't want to live a free life, just go to another family to be a slave!"
Madam Zhang was shocked and stopped crying. She raised her head to look at the old lady. She happened to see her cold eyes and felt a chill in her heart.
She knew the old lady's temperament very well. She was used to saying everything at home and was very stubborn. It would be fine if everything was following her. If she didn't follow her wishes, there would always be more serious tricks waiting for them. She said she wanted to sell herself, which would definitely be done, and she would not care about their years of relationship with her master and servant.
She didn't dare to say anything more, so she choked and kowtowed to the old lady three times, saying, "It's all the little one's fault, they were blinded by lard, and they did such things that made the old lady shame. The little one was guilty and did not dare to ask the old lady for forgiveness. The old lady was kind, let the young go home, the young one was still free, and the young one was grateful. So I went there. I hope that the old lady would take care of herself in the future. The young one would pray for the old lady every day when she was outside, and asked the gods and Buddhas of the sky to bless the old lady with good health and longevity."
Her words were very emotional, and every sentence came from the heart. After all, she was a master and servant for many years. The old lady couldn't help but feel slightly moved and sighed: "You and I have a master and servant together. It was good in the past. Now that I have fallen into this field, it is not my wish. I hope you can do it yourself in the future and live your life. Remembering what happened today is also a warning."
Seeing that she refused to give up, Madam Zhang couldn't help but look sad and kowtowed again: "Old lady, please forgive me for not serving you until the end. The little one will leave from now on. Take care of me!"
The old lady waved her hand, and she had to stand up and leave sadly.
It is not unrepentant in my heart. If she could confess her mistakes from the beginning and with the old lady's temperament, she might be kept in the end. What's more, if she could be more cautious and not forget about being favored by her, she would naturally not have the disaster today if she did things that the old lady didn't like. Now it's too late to say anything, but fortunately she has not encountered the most terrifying situation and the worst ending, she should be satisfied!
Huaping stood outside the door and listened to the conversation between the old lady and Madam Zhang clearly. Seeing that she came out, she did not take any trouble and said anything more. She just waved her hands silently. The two maids followed Madam Zhang, half accompanied and half escorted to the residence. She just waited for her to clean up the fineness and softness around her and then escorted out of the mansion. Even if she was clearing her way, she would not be the servant of the General's Mansion in the future, and she would never step into the General's Mansion in the future.
Naturally, her husband could not continue working in the shop of the General's Mansion, but the couple has saved a lot of savings through various means over the years. How to live in the future depends on their own ideas.
Jinxiu watched Madam Zhang walk out dejectedly, and then looked at the old lady who was obviously in a bad mood. After thinking about it, she sighed: "It's such a pity for Madam Zhang. The friendship between master and servant that could start and end well was unexpectedly wiped out by her. Madam, this is all her own fault. You are tolerant and generous enough. Not only do you not pursue her arrogance, but you also let her be free. You have done enough, don't think too much!"
After hearing this, the old lady felt a little better. She looked up and looked at her, and said, "Yes, she could have started and ended well... Forget it, I don't want her business anymore. It's better to solve it before the matter is out of control, so as to avoid harming others and yourself after making mistakes in the future."
