Chapter 194 Niu Pangdun's father wants Fang Qingge to be his concubine
After hearing this, Butler Zhang felt relieved and looked at Madam Zhao and continued,
"I didn't intend to leave in a hurry tomorrow. But after learning about the identities of the Madam and the young masters, I understood the Madam's urgency in explaining everything today.
I will complete the handover early tomorrow morning, get the pass and take Dali out for a walk, hoping to earn some money for our wife as soon as possible.
I've heard that there are so many places in the palace where silver is used. Silver is used everywhere.
We should all work together and not let the Madam and the young masters get into trouble over money."
"Yes. I've made note of it. Be careful when you go out, and remember to send me letters often."
After listening to Zhang Bo's explanation, Zhao Ma suddenly felt reluctant. In order to hide her feeling, she turned her head away.
Butler Zhang looked at Nanny Zhao and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
*
After a few moments of silence,
"Madam Zhao, the master also told me about a happy event."
"Butler Zhang, I made two pairs of shoes for you and Dali."
After speaking in unison, they were both stunned again.
"You speak first?"
"you say?"
For the first time in her life, Nanny Zhao blushed in front of the butler Zhang, whom she was very familiar with.
Butler Zhang smiled, his mouth corners raised,
"Madam Zhao, I don't know how to coax people. I'll just speak directly to you, so don't be upset.
Madam said she hopes to be able to drink at our wedding banquet when she comes back."
When Nanny Zhao heard this, her face felt as if it was burning with anger.
Throwing down a sentence,
"Think about coming to get your shoes when you're done."
Butler Zhang smiled brightly and nodded without saying anything more.
"Okay, you've worked hard! It just so happens that my pair of shoes are no longer wearable. Let me go to the two mansions first, and I'll get them when I come back."
"Ah."
Nanny Zhao responded in a low voice and was about to leave.
*
Suddenly, as if he thought of something, he stopped and called Zhang, the housekeeper, in a low voice.
"Butler Zhang, do you think Madam has also disclosed the truth to the two neighbors?
Oh, don't get me wrong. What I meant is that if the ladies of the two families knew about it, I would know what to answer when they asked me again."
"Well, it should be. After all, Madam has a close relationship with the two ladies, and they are both from official families."
Upon hearing this, Aunt Zhao nodded, but said with some worry,
"Ah! No matter what, we have entered that rich and powerful place where people's hearts are unpredictable. I just hope that everything goes well for my wife and children."
Uncle Zhang also sighed, said nothing more, and walked out the door with the two secret letters.
He looked up at the starry night sky and estimated that it was past the hour of Xu.
Outsiders have no way of knowing what happened in Hou'er Hutong tonight, especially in Fang Mansion.
**
Let me tell you, Steward Zhang first went to the neighboring Qi Mansion on the right.
"knock knock"
After knocking on the heavy, wide-beamed red lacquered door, the gatekeeper recognized Butler Zhang at a glance.
The servant smiled and said, without waiting for Zhang to explain his purpose.
"Butler Zhang, just follow me in. Madam has instructed that anyone coming from the Fang residence should be led directly into the hall. No need to pass on the message."
"Thank you very much, brother."
After expressing his thanks, Butler Zhang followed the servant to the reception hall of the Qi Mansion.
Before I walked in, I heard the sound of a teacup falling to the ground in the hall.
Then a scream of "Ah?" sounded. It sounded like the voice of Mrs. Niu, the mother of Niu Pangdun in the alley ahead.
"Ma Fenfen, I, Liu Ruohan, will no longer be friends with you today. We will never have any contact. You two should get out of our house right now."
Mrs. Qi was full of confidence and furious.
*
Then, the voice of Qi Imperial Physician sounded very unhappy.
"Niu Guangping, I am very upset that you were demoted from your position as the Inspector of the Ministry of Justice. I never thought that you would be such a filthy and despicable person without any remorse.
It is true that Madam Fang lives with the children and has the ability to earn some money. But Madam Fang is not to the point of becoming your concubine.
Do you know what kind of person Mrs. Fang is?
You...you are just like a toad wanting to eat swan meat.
How dare you come to my house and ask my wife to act as a matchmaker? How dare you be so bold? Get lost...get lost...you are not welcome in our Qi Mansion anymore."
*
Butler Zhang outside the door was very sharp-eyed and sharp-eared. He knew what he heard and was immediately filled with rage.
Great! Are you bullying people so blatantly?
Butler Zhang was so furious that his hair stood on end. He didn't care whether it was an act of disrespect, an offense, or politeness. He pushed open the door and rushed in.
He grabbed Niu Guangping by the collar and dragged him out like an eagle catching a chick.
Niu Guangping was so frightened by the sudden throat grab that he almost peed his pants. He struggled and stammered,
"Who... who are you? Let... let go..."
"Oh my! Lord Qi, is this how you treat guests?"
Niu Guangping and Madam Niu were dragged out of the gate of Qi Mansion while shouting and screaming before they could even see who they were.
*
After throwing the man out of the door, Zhang, the housekeeper, started punching and kicking Niu Guangping without saying a word.
When Mrs. Niu Ma Fenfen finally saw clearly that the attacker was actually the butler Zhang from the Fang residence, she was so shocked and frightened that she immediately shut her mouth.
Thinking of the suffering she had endured after offending the Fang family, she shrank her neck.
Originally, her husband wanted to take Madam Fang as a concubine on the grounds of divorcing her, and she was extremely reluctant. But her health had deteriorated, and her position as the mistress of the Niu Mansion had long been in jeopardy...
After a moment of thinking, her eyes rolled, and she fell to the ground with a plop, pretending to faint, and acted like a quail.
*
In the darkness of the night, one could hear the sound of fists and feet hitting each other, as well as low cries of pain. After a burst of breathing, Butler Zhang finally stopped and said,
"Niu Guangping, listen to me. If you ever utter my wife's name again,
I will beat you so hard that you won’t be able to live here any longer. If you don’t believe me, try it yourself?! Bah! Get out…get out…”
Niu Guangping was beaten black and blue, and completely stunned. He was grimacing in pain. Standing in front of the Fang and Qi residences, he still had a trace of rationality and did not dare to shout for help. He also knew that he was embarrassed.
After a long pause, he panted heavily, pointed at Zhang the housekeeper and cursed in a low voice,
"You are a dog slave, and you dare to hit me, an official appointed by the imperial court. Fine! Fine! You wait! You wait for me!"
While cursing he got up and ran away, leaving Mrs. Niu behind.
*
Mrs. Niu, who had finally recovered from the shock, jumped up and pointed at Butler Zhang and cursed.
"Yes, you wait."
Then, with a "clack clack" sound, she followed her husband's footsteps and ran away.
Imperial Physician Qi and his wife knew that Steward Zhang had come for something, so they hurriedly said,
"Butler Zhang, calm down. This Niu Guangping is just a toad. Although he looks very arrogant, he is actually a soft-shelled shrimp. He will lose his courage if you scare him.
But you guys in the Fang Mansion should be more careful in the future. Come, let’s go into the mansion and talk.”
