Chapter 214 Fire in the backyard!
The officials in the lobby were all from both of them. Seeing that the person in charge said this, there was no need to continue making noise. They apologized to Bai Qiaoqiao, and then left the gifts they brought to leave.
Changsun Wuji and Wang Gui asked Bai Qiaoqiao again, and Li Mu said something else. Bai Qiaoqiao said nothing else, and the two of them didn't ask again and said goodbye and left.
The lobby was empty in a blink of an eye. Tang Jian looked at Bai Qiaoqiao and apologized: "The court was in chaos yesterday. I didn't know what happened, so I didn't say anything. When Li Mu vomited blood, it was too late to say anything. It was really ashamed to say."
Bai Qiaoqiao was originally a little complaining, but Li Mu had already explained that he did not expect Tang Jian to help in anything. Bai Qiaoqiao pressed the complaint in his heart and said, "It's a sudden thing, so you can't blame me."
At this time, Zhao Youcai led the work department squatting outside in again. Seeing this, Tang Jian said, "I'll go see Li Mu." After saying that, he slipped away from the side door of the lobby. I think Wang Gui's words also stimulated him and left him with no face to meet others.
Bai Qiaoqiao, who was receiving the Ministry of Works, changed into another attitude. Because Li Mu Youyan, the Ministry of Works has no shares in both major companies, when they come to visit, they must visit sincerely and treat them well. But because Bai Qiaoqiao is not familiar with everyone and has no topics to talk about, after a few chats, everyone left the gift and said goodbye.
Bai Qiaoqiao let out a long sigh.
In the past, everyone who came to the mansion was Li Mu. Now Li Mu cannot come forward. If she was the wife, she had never done anything like that, and she was really not used to it. It would be difficult to persevere.
At this time, the two maids came to remove the teacup. Bai Qiaoqiao was about to go back to the backyard when she suddenly saw the two maids being a little jealous. She couldn't help but stop. There were four maids in the mansion, and which one of them didn't recognize them? Why did two innocent faces suddenly appear? Could it be that Zhien, the girl, thought that the mansion was not crowded and bought two more maids to do it? It shouldn't be that she could not take the initiative for such a big deal.
Bai Qiaoqiao walked in curiously and recognized it. Aren’t these two ‘maids’ the two sent to the palace last night? Why did Wei Zheng’s daughter and her maid put on the clothes of the maid in the mansion and start living as servants?
Wei Yingluo felt Bai Qiaoqiao's gaze as if it was roasted by charcoal fire, her cheeks were burning and her whole body was trembling uncontrollably. She felt that her self-esteem was rapidly losing due to what she did. The lady from the Duke of Zheng's Mansion has now been at the residence of a county marquis and became a maid. Such a gap is really hard for her to accept.
"Miss Wei, how could you wear this outfit to do the maid's work? Who asked you to do it?"
Wei Yingluo lowered her head and said without saying a word. Pearl was angry and said, "Madam, who else can it be? It's..."
"Pearl, stop talking." Wei Yingluo was afraid that Pearl would offend people, so she spoke to stop her. She put down the tray in her hand, saluted Bai Qiaoqiao, and said, "Madam, please stop calling me Miss Wei anymore. Now Yingluo is not a lady. Your Majesty has given us master and servant to the Marquis, and will be the maids of the Marquis' Mansion from now on. The second wife has just told her that we understand the rules, so just let the wife call me Xiaoying."
"Second Madam?" Bai Qiaoqiao frowned slightly. She knew who Wei Yingluo was talking about. But the title of "Second Madam" still made her a little unhappy. There was only one wife in the mansion, which was herself. She could be nice to Li Zhien, but she would not give in to her status.
Before I could say anything, Li Zhien walked in from the side door of the lobby with a ruler and said angrily: "Okay, Xiaoying, how dare you provoke the relationship between me and my wife? When did I say that I am the 'second wife'. In our mansion, there is only one wife, our Madam Qiaoqiao, and only one concubine, that is me. I always say that I am the master's concubine. I say that in front of my wife, and I say that I am the wife behind my wife's face. Why are you slandering people like your father for nothing?"
When it comes to verbal words, Li Zhien is not afraid of Wei Yingluo. He will prick her wherever he loves her. Wei Yingluo doesn't like to hear anything the most, she insists on saying it.
When it comes to Wei Zheng, Wei Yingluo and Zhenzhu both showed a look of shame. They are not officials who don’t want to be a face, and they can say anything for the sake of their interests. The two of them, a few days ago, were still carefree ladies and maids, and the current changes they have suffered were also unpredictable. They could not deny what Wei Zheng did. Li Mu was vomited blood in their eyes, and they could not argue.
But Wei Zheng was her father after all, and Wei Yingluo couldn't help but say, "I don't know what to call you, so I call you the second wife. It's definitely not intentional provocation. Even if my father does something wrong, it will be dealt with by the marquis. Can you not always talk about it? No matter how bad my father is, it's not your turn to judge!"
"Oh! What a polite lady from a family! I'm too much for you to call me. Don't forget that my master is still in a coma. You are standing in the Zhulu Marquis' Mansion and are worried about your father. Don't let me judge, right? I'll judge! Wei Zheng bullies my master, but he is not a good person! How? How?!"
"you!"
Wei Yingluo's eyes turned red and she couldn't help but shed tears. Bai Qiaoqiao looked at him, although she felt that Li Zhien was a little too much. But when she thought that the person she was talking about was Wei Zheng, she didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Li Zhien felt even more confident. He shook the ruler in his hand and said, "You are slandering me behind your back. This is a mistake. You are in Zhulu Marquis' Mansion and are in a bad mood for your father, this bad guy. This is a mistake. Extend your hand and I want to punish you!"
Pearl stretched out his hand and said, "I will be punished for my lady!"
"You don't need to replace me, I haven't said you yet." Li Zhien pinched his waist and stared at Pearl, saying, "The rules I just told you were useless? You are now maids in the mansion. Everything you do must start from the four words "Zhulu Marquis Mansion". Forget your previous identities, can't you remember?"
Li Zhien pointed at Wei Yingluo and said, "You are not her maid anymore, and she is not your lady. You are all maids. Why do she want you to be punished if she did something wrong? Why are you living so bored?"
"Can I like it?"
"I'm still stubborn?" Li Zhien said angrily: "Tell you, no! This is Zhulu Marquis' Mansion, I'll decide the rules!" After saying that, he remembered Bai Qiaoqiao beside him and quickly added: "If the rules I set are wrong, the lady will correct me. But before the lady speaks, you have to listen to me!"
Pearl was indignant and turned her face aside to express her protest.
Li Zhien ignored her and continued, "After talking about her, let's talk about you. You don't know whether you are right or wrong, but you help her. This is one mistake. You don't accept discipline and contradict one after another. This is two mistake. You have to be punished for others regardless of the rules. This is three mistake. You have to be punished too!"
"I didn't say I wouldn't be punished. Can't you hit me five times? Don't hit my lady!"
"I still call you a lady, or a lady?" Li Zhien stared at her eyes and said, "I don't follow the rules again. Do you want to be beaten around?"
"I……"
"Zhenzhu, stop talking!" Wei Yingluo finally couldn't help but stop him and whispered: "The person is under the eaves, and he has to bow his head. The Marquis is not awake now, so we can only listen to her and don't argue with her. If she wants to punish her, just punish her."
As he said that, Wei Yingluo stretched out her hand, closed her eyes, and seemed to accept punishment.
Lee Ji-en pulled her hand and said, "I know you are not convinced, but it doesn't matter. I don't need you to convince, as long as you follow the rules!"
"Bang!"
one time.
Wei Yingluo frowned, but the ruler fell down, but it didn't hurt as expected. She couldn't help but open her eyes and thought to herself that Li Mu's concubine looked fierce, but she wasn't so cruel...
"Bang!"
It hurts so much! Wei Yingluo couldn't help but scream softly, and then looked at her palms, and it turned red.
Lee Ji-en showed a cunning look and said, "When I hit someone, it depends on my mood. Sometimes it is light and sometimes it is heavy. Maybe it is heavy at once. You can't blame me."
Wei Yingluo pursed her lips tightly, endured the pain, and said nothing. She turned around and picked up the tray and said, "Please tell the maid how to call you. The maid is afraid that the maid will be called wrong and will be defiled again, which is deliberately provoking."
"Sharp teeth and sharp mouths." Li Zhien chuckled and said, "Just call me...well, call me the butler, how about it? Can't take advantage of the loophole?"
"My maid remember." Wei Yingluo gave a blessing, bowed slightly, and said, "If the wife and the butler have no other instructions, the maid will go down first."
"Let's go." Li Zhien waved his hand and said. She glanced at the pearl who stretched out her hand and waited for punishment, and said, "This butler suddenly felt better. I won't punish you anymore, let's go."
However, Zhenzhu didn't appreciate it and said, "If you go back to the housekeeper, the maid's mistake should be punished. There is no reason to just punish it... Xiaoying doesn't punish the maid, but asks the housekeeper to treat others fairly and punish the maid."
"Ha! Fight against me, right? OK!" Li Zhien snorted fiercely, pulled Zhenzhu's hand, waved the ruler, and patted it hard. Wei Yingluo watched from the side, anxious for Zhenzhu. It hurts so much if she waved it so hard! Zhenzhu was also startled and closed her eyes tightly and did not dare to open it.
Unexpectedly, the ruler was swung fiercely. When it was about to touch it, it suddenly slowed down, and the sound of the four-way sound was almost unheard. Pearl opened her eyes, looked at Li Zhien, and asked, "What does the butler mean?"
"I've been punished." Li Zhien blinked and said, "Didn't this butler say that when I hit someone, it depends on my mood. When I hit you just now, I felt better and lighter. But to show fairness, since the punishment has been punished, I have to count. If you are lucky, you can't go down and wash the teacup?"
How could Zhenzhu not know that Li Zhien did it on purpose, but she had no choice but to imitate Wei Yingluo and salute Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien. The two of them took the tray together.
Watching the two of them walking away, Li Zhien hurriedly said, "Madam, don't believe them. I have never called myself a wife. I blamed them, just to vent my anger on the master. If the wife feels it is inappropriate, I will apologize."
"I know what you think, so you don't need to apologize, but don't blame me too much. They are all miserable people. Didn't you hear from Eunuch Gao say yesterday that her father doesn't want her anymore."
"Oh..." Li Zhien squinted and muttered in a low voice: "But I still think she is not worthy of being pitiful. If it weren't for her, there wouldn't be so many things. Her father would have been cheated by her."
"Oh, it's hard to tell who is right. It's not bad for us to be kinder. Your husband is better than anything else. How to deal with them, you have to make an idea. Let's go back and see what food to order at noon to entertain your mother-in-law."
"Oh!" Li Zhien suddenly shouted, "I just spent time dealing with them, and forgot about the big thing! Madam, it's not good. Mrs. Mudan is here, come with Duke Su. I'm here just to tell you this. I've been interrupted by them. Hurry up, let's go back to the backyard!"
Bai Qiaoqiao also panicked when she heard this. She was not worried about what Wang Ou would do, but about Li Mu's exposure. You must know that the orange peels are still under Li Mu's pillow. If Cheng Yaojin and Wang Ou saw them, Li Mu would be exposed!
The two girls ran back to the backyard panting and went into the room to see. Fortunately, Li Mu was still lying there, Sun was sitting by the bed, Wang Ou, Cheng Yaojin and Tang Jian were all sitting a little far away. Wang Ou's eyes, although he was staring at Li Mu, seemed to see nothing.
Seeing the two girls entering the room, Wang Ou moved her eyes from Li Mu, paused for a moment, nodded slightly to Bai Qiaoqiao, saying hello. Both of them knew what they were thinking, so there was no need to say anything.
Although Li Zhien hated Wang Ou, she still had to argue with her about the expansion of the store. However, in front of Sun, she did not dare to be arrogant at all. She turned her eyes away from her.
But Sun did not give her such a chance, and saw the two daughters coming in. Sun introduced them and said, "Qiaoqiao comes here, Zhien comes too. This is Duke Su, and you both recognize him. This is Mrs. Mudan, the sister-in-law of Duke Su, and one of my sisters. Call me aunt."
“…”/“…”
Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien looked at Wang Ou and saw the embarrassment in each other's eyes. Li Zhien hated Wang Ou to the extreme and was willing to call him "auntie", and Wang Ou was unwilling to bear this seniority. Others didn't know what happened to her and Li Mu, but Bai Qiaoqiao knew the same thing. If Bai Qiaoqiao could call her sister, she would be very happy, but this aunt would only embarrass her.
Sun was not sure about this, and when he saw Bai Qiaoqiao and Li Zhien didn't say anything, he was a little displeased and said, "Why, haven't you heard me?"
When Li Mu, who was in a coma, heard this, he knew that he had to "awake" and that the yard might catch a fire.
"Well……"
