Chapter 397 The truth about why Su Yuning came out to bite Su Yuejie!
During this period of time, a lot of miscellaneous matters have accumulated in Rong'an Hall. Old Mrs. Kang and she thought that since the person had been borrowed, they should hurry up and let them deal with those matters. But who knew that the person actually ran away. This is really... very outrageous!
"Madam, I feel relieved that they have left, but if the two ladies ask about it, how should I explain it?" Madam Xu was afraid that the first and second ladies would blame her.
Old Kang's eyes narrowed and he said bluntly, "Explain? What is there to explain? Those people can't stand the slightest hardship and they can't work well. If they stay, they will be a nuisance."
Nanny Xu understood immediately, so when Nanny Ji came to take the people away, she only said: "Those lowly people can't stand the hardship, so they all ran away."
"ran away?" Nanny Ji couldn't believe it. These people were staying well in the second house, so how come they ran away not long after arriving at Rong'an Hall?
She looked into the yard and saw no one, so she could only quickly return to Xiaokang and tell her what had happened.
After hearing this, Xiao Kang slammed her hand on the table and said angrily, "How could he have escaped? I think the old woman detained him herself. She only thought about the lack of people in her Rong'an Hall. Didn't she think about the lack of people here?"
"If she had come to me directly and asked me for someone, I would have been able to give her one, but she actually took the person away. That's really too much!"
"No, we can't just let this go. I have to go there and get him back myself."
Xiaokang stood up quickly. She didn't want her courtyard to be left unattended, so she had to get all the people back.
Nanny Xu hurried to catch up. She had the same idea as Xiaokang. With those people around, her work would be easier, so they had to come back.
As soon as the master and servant walked to the gate of the yard, they met Su Qingwan who came in gracefully.
"Second aunt, where are we going?" Su Qingwan asked softly.
"Qingwan, you came at the right time. Please accompany me to Rong'an Hall. Today, the old lady called out the servants in my courtyard and detained them. Now we are going to get them back."
Xiaokang said hurriedly, feeling more confident with Su Qingwan around.
"That's it! I came here because of this. I wanted to talk to my second aunt about it. I just heard that those people who stayed in your yard went to my mother to collect their wages and left." Su Qingwan said.
"What? They left? Your mother gave all the wages?" Xiaokang asked in shock.
If it were in the past, she would not have asked a single question if these people had left or even died. But that is no longer possible. Now all the trivial matters of the second house are waiting for these people to deal with.
"Second aunt, we have to give it to them. When these people stayed, they agreed that they could leave at any time. But don't worry, my mother said that we will find a few more capable people to come in." Su Qingwan said with a smile.
Xiao Kang was filled with anger and cursed Lao Kang harshly in her heart. If she hadn't suddenly asked for these people to go over, these people would never have thought of leaving the Marquis' Mansion.
She angrily wanted to rush to Rong'antang to demand an explanation, but after taking only two steps, she gave up. It was useless to go look for her herself, and she might even be scolded if she went, so she decided not to go.
"Qingwan, ask your mother to hurry up and find someone. I have a lot of things to do in my yard." Xiaokang said anxiously.
Su Qingwan nodded, said a few words to comfort Xiaokang, and then left.
As for finding someone, who should I look for?
From now on, they have to do all the affairs of each room by themselves. She wants them to keep the title of ladies of each room in the marquis's mansion and do what servants should do.
That night, Aunt Xu from Rong'an Hall cursed all those people who came to help and then ran away without any mercy, just because these people left behind a mess before they left.
In front of her, there were three large wooden basins filled with wet dirty clothes. There were also several toilet bowls that had not been cleaned, and the nightshade and swill had not been emptied out. She had wanted to let these people deal with it, but they all ran away. Now, only she and the old lady were left in Rong'an Hall, and she couldn't let the old lady do it.
When Old Mrs. Kang heard Aunt Xu cursing, she went back to sleep without saying a word. She was right to curse, those bitches deserved to be cursed!
When Liu learned about this, she was very unhappy, but Su Yunrou had warned her before, so she could only swallow the matter. They were just two maids doing odd jobs, so she could just leave!
……
The marquis's mansion was becoming increasingly desolate, and there were not enough people to take care of the courtyard, so as soon as Liu left Tinglan Courtyard, she saw a bleak scene.
She tightened her cloak around herself. Although she had not bought winter clothes this year, her previous clothes were still wearable, so when she went out, she still looked like the eldest lady of a marquisate.
"Madam, let's go." After closing the courtyard gate, Nanny Zhou helped Liu to where the old marquis lived.
After arriving at the old marquis's place, Liu realized how big the gap was between Tinglan Courtyard and the main courtyard.
The old marquis's house still maintains its previous appearance, without any sign of desolation. As soon as she came in, someone went to the house to pass on the message.
Liu couldn't help but feel envious. What she thought was a common thing before had now become her extravagant hope. But it didn't matter. As long as she could win over the old marquis, the status of the first wife in the marquis's mansion would not be lowered.
But the old marquis did not see her and only sent his personal servant out to question her.
"I wonder what the Madam wants to see the old Marquis about?"
"It's not a big deal. I just thought the weather was getting colder, so I sent a scarf to the old marquis to keep him warm."
Liu said this, but she didn't hand the things to the other party. Since she came to the main courtyard, she naturally wanted to say a few more words to the old marquis and win more favor from the eldest master and Su Yunrou.
"In that case, Madam, just hand the things over to me. The Marquis is tired and has already gone to bed," said the man.
But in fact, he felt that the eldest lady came at a really bad time. Why did she come just when the old marquis was taking tonic?
Life is not easy in the Marquis' Mansion now. If Liu sees this, I'm afraid the old lady will make a fuss again.
Liu had no choice but to ask Nanny Zhou to pass the things over.
The master and servant walked out, and not long after they stepped onto the corridor, they heard a maid say, "How could it be false? I saw it with my own eyes. The second lady often went to hang out outside the third lady's yard, especially on the day when the eldest young master died."
"Don't dare to say such nonsense. Why did the Second Madam go to the Third Miss' place for no reason? The Third Miss was crazy at that time. She didn't think it was unlucky to go there!"
"How would I know why? I saw the Second Madam go there. If you don't believe me, you can ask the old woman who used to deliver food to the Third Miss. She saw it, too."
"What are you asking? Those people were already dismissed!"
"Su Yuning!"
Liu's pupils trembled!
