"I'm a glutton, what does it have to do with you? I didn't eat from your family, I ate from Xiaoyun'er's family." Jia Linglong plucked up the courage to say.
Several ladies were scolded by Lu Zhiyun on the spot, and they lost face.
They are also pampered at home. Besides, when they get together, the little sisters are talking about how the Lu family is just a rising star. In fact, it doesn’t have a deep foundation. Looking at them again, counting up, they have made a fortune long before their grandfather.
Yes, the background is there. Thinking about it this way, the Lu family is nothing special. It is still early to become a true noble, and they have no arrogant ability at all.
They looked down upon Jia Linglong even more. Jia Linglong's father was just a minor official in Dali Temple and was not even qualified to go to court. Such a person dared to talk back.
"We are also concerned about you." One of them said, "It's too rude of you to do this. Although Miss Lu doesn't mind, there are so many people here today. If word gets out, it won't cause us to be ridiculed, saying that we, ladies, are ladies."
It’s really a shame to be associated with such people.”
"Yes, it's time for Mrs. Jia to hire an educated nanny for you. Oh, I heard that Mrs. Jia was born as a child bride. I'm afraid she doesn't have any education herself, right?" Another lady smiled coquettishly.
"You are not allowed to talk about my mother like that." Jia Linglong, who had been timid just now, became angry after hearing this and pushed the lady hard.
"Ah..." The lady's foot slipped and she fell into the pool.
Lu Zhiyun grabbed the lady.
"Come here and help," she shouted to the others.
She was young, and the lady was several years older than her. In addition, she only grabbed the lady's fingers, and she was about to let go when she couldn't hold on.
"How dare you push my sister Wang..." Another lady became angry and pushed Jia Linglong.
Jia Linglong's body is relatively round, and she has done rough work since she was a child, so she has strong hands. The lady did not push Jia Linglong down, and she slipped and fell into the pool.
With a splash, the whole person was submerged in the pool.
The fish that gathered were frightened and ran away.
But on this side, Lu Zhiyun failed to catch the lady, and the lady also fell down.
The two ladies who fell into the water, one named Wang and the other named Ruan, are now splashing in the water.
The maid who was serving them was frightened and shouted around, "Someone, come and help me."
"Miss Lu, is this the way your Lu family treats guests?" one of the maids said angrily.
"It's not Xiao Yun'er's fault, it was me who pushed her down." Jia Linglong was frightened to death, but she still bravely stood up in front of Lu Zhiyun, "Who made her mouth so vicious that she actually scolded my mother? No matter what my mother does,
She is also an elder, and she is a junior scolding her elders. If word of this spreads out, I am afraid that not many families will dare to marry such a rude lady as your lady, right?"
"Save people first." Lu Zhiyun said, "Who is right and who is wrong? With so many people watching, we won't let them call white people black."
The servants of Lu Mansion heard the noise and rushed over.
Not long after, the two ladies were rescued.
Mu Siyu was receiving female guests. She heard that something happened at the pond in the backyard and two ladies fell into the water. She apologized to the other female guests and hurried towards the pond.
"What's going on?"
"It is said that the girls got into an argument and pushed each other around, and then he fell into the water."
"It's nothing serious, right?"
"Miss Wang and Miss Ruan were frightened. The servants sent them to change clothes. They should be changed now. Someone just saw Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Ruan and rushed over."
Shang Zhi asked his servant, but the servant couldn't explain clearly. Mu Siyu couldn't know the details, so he could only take a step by step later.
Zi Su came over from the opposite side: "Madam, I have a few words to say."
There were a lot of things going on today, so Mu Siyu called both Zisu and Ziyuan over to help, but they were responsible for different areas.
Mu Siyu walked to the corner, and Zisu gave an overview of the situation just now, including why and how they quarreled.
"In this way, it was the two young ladies who were rude first." Mu Siyu said, "Okay, go and invite Mrs. Jia over. The matter involves her. If she doesn't come over, Miss Jia will be bullied.
, I can’t help you obviously."
Miss Wang and Miss Ruan had already changed their clothes and were crying in the room. They were so aggrieved that they thought she had been bullied in some way.
"My son..." Mrs. Wang opened the door and came in, "What's wrong? What's wrong?"
"Daughter, are you injured? Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?" Mrs. Ruan followed.
"Mom..." The mother and daughter burst into tears.
Lu Zhiyun watched this scene calmly, no matter how they cried, their cries filled the whole room, and she pretended not to hear them.
Jia Linglong tugged at the corner of Lu Zhiyun's clothes and looked at her worriedly.
Lu Zhiyun smiled comfortingly at her and continued to watch them cry.
"Miss, several purple fish brought from the extra story in the pond are dead, and a dozen goldfish are also dead. Those are rare species that Madam brought from various places. In total, the loss is three thousand taels of silver.
"A servant said to Lu Zhiyun.
"So many?" Lu Zhiyun frowned, "Those are my mother's pets. My father has told me that anyone who kills a fish will have violated the Lu family's taboo and will be punished."
"Miss Lu, they two are frightened, do you still have the mood to care about your fish?" Mrs. Wang said angrily, "You Lu family are too bullying, right?"
"Madam, it is because the two sisters were frightened that you came here, so I will give you enough time to comfort the two sisters. We will say nothing else after you calm down." Lu Zhiyun said, "Before you calm down, my
When a servant comes to report the damage at home, there is no reason for me, the young master, to ignore it, right?"
"Daughter, how did you fall into the water?" Mrs. Ruan asked.
"She...she pushed me down." Miss Ruan pointed at Jia Linglong.
"Wait a minute, let's restore the situation just now and distinguish between right and wrong!" Lu Zhiyun clapped her hands.
Four servants came in.
Those were four beautiful maids.
One of the maids said: "The one named Jia is so funny..."
That voice was clearly that of Miss Wang's family.
Miss Wang and Mrs. Wang were both shocked.
Then came Miss Ruan's voice.
The other two maids played the roles of Lu Zhiyun and Jia Linglong respectively.
The four people retold the situation exactly. In the end, when the maid played the leading role, there was also a maid who played two roles, making the whole 'plot' come alive. If Mrs. Wang and Mrs. Ruan still said they didn't understand at this time
, which makes people wonder whether they have any brains.
"That's what happened." Lu Zhiyun said, "I think it's disrespectful for a lady to talk about other people's rights and wrongs at will. The two sisters always say "discourteous" and "educated", so they must be very educated people.
, but what you are doing is really hard for people to see.”
