Chapter 932 The stepmother of the gloomy villain (2)
When Shi Jiang saw that everyone was stunned and didn't do anything, his face suddenly turned stern, he reached out and threw the teacup on the table to the ground, and sneered.
"Huh, what? Just when the Marquis is gone, do you dare not listen to me? Or, in front of you, what I, my wife, said is just a joke?"
The teacup was thrown to the ground, and the crisp crackling sound immediately woke the stunned servants and maids.
Hearing Madam's words again, no one dared to hesitate. They swarmed forward and pushed Hongxia to the ground.
Hongxia was shocked, she just brought a piece of clothing for Madam, why did Madam let someone take her away?
Just when he was about to cry out for injustice, the clever servant girl thought of what the lady had said before and covered the little hoof's mouth. When she saw Hongxia was about to speak, she took out her sweat towel without hesitation and stuffed it into Hongxia.
In her mouth, all her words were swallowed into her stomach.
So much so that when she was pushed to the ground, and when she knelt on the ground, the broken pieces of the tea cup on the ground just pierced into her flesh, Hongxia burst into tears and runny nose.
Seeing her like this, Shi Jiang turned away his eyes in disgust.
After Qingxia was squeezed away by Hongxia, she was waiting on the side obediently. Unexpectedly, this thing was like a train that had lost track, and it went out of control!
Seeing Madam's expression again, my heart suddenly trembled, and she said in a deep voice to the servants who were escorting Hongxia.
"Hurry up and take him down, don't get madam's eyes dirty."
"...yes yes!"
The maids nodded repeatedly and dragged Hongxia out of the room, and the clever third-class maids quickly cleaned up the debris on the ground without Qingxia's instructions.
In case the lady steps on it and is injured, the entire servants in the yard will be punished.
But in the blink of an eye, the room returned to its original state.
Shi Jiang glanced directly at Qingxia, and then said lightly.
"Go and get some plain clothes for me to change into. Lord Marquis has just left now, and Hongxia actually brought such bright clothes over. It's really heartbreaking."
If Qingxia was still a little uneasy just now, when she heard Madam's explanation, she suddenly remembered the crimson dress that Hongxia had chosen without hesitation, and suddenly realized it.
However, she didn't expect that Mrs. Suri was very fond of Hongxia, and she didn't expect that she would be so angry about this matter this time.
In other words, I didn’t expect Madam to think so carefully. If it were done before, Madam would not take it to heart even if there were some overstepping things.
But just like what Madam said, if Madam wears the crimson dress that Hongxia brought out this time and goes to the front hall, I am afraid that someone will see her, and someone will definitely give advice behind her back. The Marquis just went there, but Madam is not at all worried about it.
superior.
With this thought in her mind, Qingxia quickly took out a plain dress from the closet and put it on for Shi Jiang.
At the same time, all the hairpins on Shi Jiang's head were removed, except for a white flower on the temples.
Dressed up properly, Shi Jiang held Qingxia in one hand and a plain handkerchief in the other, and walked toward the front hall with a sad face.
After the initial panic in Jinghaihou Mansion, the servants were asked to do whatever they were supposed to do under the command of Butler Huo!
At least the mourning hall must be decorated.
It's just that Butler Huo can command his servants, but he can't boss the second master and the third master.
Even, they and the second lady and the third lady who brought them would direct them to do things.
Butler Huo gritted his teeth, thinking that the old lady had fainted and still hadn't woken up, and she was such a temperamental person. The prince was still young, and because of his seniority, he couldn't say anything to his elders.
However, now the second master and the third master, together with the second wife and the third wife, are forcing him to hand over the account books and warehouse keys of the Jinghai Marquis Mansion. Butler Huo is shocked and angry. He did not expect that the Marquis's body is still cold. As a brother,
The second master and the third master actually joined forces to seize the family property?
After hearing Steward Huo's stern refusal, the two masters and ladies tried to talk him out of it. It seemed that if they didn't take out the account books and the key to the warehouse, then he, the steward, wanted to embezzle it.
Butler Huo was forced to grit his teeth. For the sake of the prince, he would never give up the things in Jinghaihou's mansion.
"Second brother, third brother, what are you doing?"
Housekeeper Huo, who was forced to retreat step by step, suddenly heard a confused female voice.
When Huo Gang and Huo Ren heard someone calling them second brother and third brother, they were stunned for a moment before reacting. On the other hand, the second lady and the third lady on the side looked at each other with disdain in their eyes.
"Sister-in-law, I'm not the one who said, how can a servant hold the account book and the key to the warehouse of the Hou Mansion? It's really outrageous, so the officials are helping the sister-in-law to ask this servant to take the account book and the key to the warehouse of the Hou Mansion.
I got it back! Don't worry, my husband is here and I guarantee that these evil servants will not get even a cent of the Hou's house."
The second lady, Mrs. Liu, took a step forward and wanted to grab Shi Jiang's hand affectionately, but Shi Jiang avoided her. She didn't care either, and said to Shi Jiang with a smile, as if she was doing Shi Jiang a favor.
The third wife, Mrs. Wang, was not to be outdone. She stood beside Mrs. Liu, nodding her head repeatedly and promising that her husband would definitely take care of the prince's mansion for Shi Jiang.
Huo Gang and Huo Ren, following the words of their two ladies, raised their heads and held their chests proudly.
Shi Jiang slowly crossed their faces, and then landed on Butler Huo, who looked pale but was always stubborn and refused to cooperate.
Originally, because of Shi Jiang's arrival, the Second Master and the Third Master stopped pressing him, but when he saw clearly that it was Madam, Butler Huo's originally raised hopes fell back.
Even when he heard what the Second Madam and the Third Madam said, Butler Huo's heart felt like it was in an ice cellar. He just hoped that the old lady would wake up soon and take charge of the overall situation.
"That's very well said. However, this is Jinghaihou Mansion after all. Even if Butler Huo is asked to take out the account books and warehouse keys, it must be given to me, the mistress of Jinghaihou Mansion. I don't know, second brother,
In what name does the third brother take charge of Jinghaihou Mansion? Is it because my wife is also dead?"
Shi Jiang raised the corners of his mouth slightly, showing a sneer, raised his chin slightly, and looked at Huo Gang and Huo Ren, his eyes full of contempt.
Based on the Second Lady's and Third Lady's understanding of Shi Jiang, Shi Jiang would definitely not object to what they just said.
But now, when Shi Jiang heard these words that suddenly came out, his face was shocked, and he couldn't react for a moment. Is this still the sister-in-law they knew?
Shi Jiang looked at Butler Huo and frowned slightly.
"Housekeeper Huo, the whole house is extremely busy now. What are you doing here? Why don't you go and do all the things that need to be done? All the letters that need to be sent have also been sent. By the way, the old lady's side is open.
Bring a hundred-year-old ginseng from the warehouse and give it to the doctor in the house, so that the doctor can treat the old lady properly. If there is anything wrong with the old lady, you can peel it off carefully."
