C24 Flaming Drama
I just happened to pass through your Emerald Court, and was dragged in by Nanny Lin's blurry eyes. Now that you want to pin me down on a crime, don't tell me you really think that my aunt is a vegetarian and can be bullied by others? "
"You obviously sneaked out from our wife's courtyard. You're not just passing by." Nanny Lin harrumphed. She finally remembered that the peony was the big girl from the Lotus Garden.
Usually, there was no lack of people who put on airs when following by Aunt Bai 's side. This time, his mouth was wide open in front of his wife, obviously looking down on her and Emerald Court.
"Let me ask you one more time, where are the things in my room?" Lin Loong's patience was running out. She had to find someone to subdue Xu Zhaoning in the shortest amount of time.
Otherwise, she was worried that bitch might have another evil idea after a while.
However, if the contents of the box could not be retrieved, she would not be able to ask for outside help. She would not be able to subdue Xu Zhaoning, and she would not be able to vent her anger.
In fact, she and Yanran had to continue staying in that slut.
Hearing the urgency in Lin Loong's words, Peony seemed to be deep in thought, but in the end, she still couldn't understand.
"What exactly is Madam talking about, Peony simply does not understand. I just happened to pass through the Emerald Court, so I didn't touch anything inside the Emerald Court at all. "
Naturally, she would not reveal that she had been ordered by Madam to find out where Lin Loong had been last night. She would not say whether she had gone to the Marquis' Mansion, but she did not know why she had fallen asleep within the Emerald Court.
She woke up as soon as dawn arrived, worried that someone would write an essay on her. Therefore, she wanted to escape as soon as possible, but she was still caught by Nanny Lin. How unlucky.
"You're being stubborn, aren't you!?" Nanny Lin, bring him to the Pine Crane Court.
Peony was just a little girl, where did she get the courage to go through her Emerald Court, and where did she get the courage to confront her like this? All of this was because Aunt Bai was supporting her from behind.
The little aunt, who had just gained the authority of the clan, acted so arrogantly. If she wasn't properly governed, then this mansion would truly be run by an aunt.
Xu Chengke's ears were soft and he did not care about anything, but Old Duke and the Old Granny would not tolerate their concubines' arrogance, nor would they allow any outsiders to guide their Loyalty Duke's Mansion.
Nanny Lin nimbly picked up the peony, while Lily and Clove crowded around Lin Loong from the left and right, walking towards Pine Crane Court without concealing anything.
In Pine Crane Court, Lin Loong had just finished complaining to Xu Renyu and his wife about the clean hands and feet of the peonies, and when she obtained them without working hard in Emerald Court, Aunt Bai had already rushed over.
As soon as Aunt Bai arrived, she first asked why the lady was angered by the peony. As a smart peony, when she saw the master's arrival, she immediately teared up and told him of her grievances.
"Aunt was clear, this humble servant just happened to pass through the Emerald Court and was maliciously detained by Nanny Lin. Madam had even wronged this humble servant, accusing me of having unclean hands and feet. This servant's character is well understood by you, Aunt. Please help this servant. "
As she spoke, she carefully glanced in Lin Loong's direction, as if she was afraid that if she said something wrong, it would make Lin Loong unhappy. At the same time, tears began to fall from her eyes.
Aunt Bai felt her heart ache for Xu Renyu. She walked up to Xu Renyu and knelt down on both knees.
Old Duke, old madam, I know that my status is low, and have been obediently listening to your lecture for the past few years. I have never dared to offend the madam, and this peony was gifted to me by the madame.
In contrast to Lin Loong's dignified appearance, Aunt Bai looked like a lovable little girl with a woman's charm and a young girl's charm. Although she had not had a strong family background, she was still deeply loved by Xu Chengke and had stood up to Lin Loong for many years.
Her current words reminded Lin Loong that the peony was given to her by Mrs Xu all those years ago. Lin Loong accused Mrs Xu of having dirty hands and feet, but Mrs Xu did not trust her.
How could Lin Loong not hear the trouble behind her words? However, she was confident that Mrs Xu was on the same side as her, and she had a son and a daughter who disdained pandering to Mrs Xu like Aunt Bai .
Therefore, she interrupted Aunt Bai fiercely. "So what if the madame gave it to you? She has long been by your side and has long been infected with your despicable ways." If she does not return the dirt today, I will definitely skin her alive. "
"Madam, I know that you don't like me, but I've always been cautious since I entered the estate. How can you slander me like this?" Aunt Bai 's eyes were brimming with tears and her face was filled with grievance.
"Prudent? Do you think all of us are stupid? A little girl dares to spout nonsense in the Emerald Court. If it wasn't for you, her master, supporting her from behind, would she dare to have the guts to do so?
Hmph, you haven't even started managing the household, yet she's already using her status as a member of the household to take advantage of the situation. "
Having lived under the same roof for such a long time, Lin Loong's understanding of Aunt Bai was far more than this. She did not think that Aunt Bai was that timid. On the contrary, this woman was extremely intelligent and had many despicable methods.
"So it was all caused by the power in the kingdom," Aunt Bai muttered with a look of disappointment on her face.
Then, as if he had made a sudden decision, he turned to Xu Renyu and said in a serious tone, "All these years, the Hou Mansion has been governed by Madam in a neat and orderly manner. We are all used to having Madam leading them. "I believe that I am too inexperienced to be of much use. Old Duke, please retract your order."
After saying that, without waiting for Xu Renyu to react, she walked in front of Lin Loong, "Madam, if I give the alimony back to you, can you hand the peony back to me without guilt? After such a long time, I have already become accustomed to serving peonies. Without her, I will not be able to get used to it. "
"Bai Clan!" What do you mean by this? How could I deliberately target peony just because I'm in charge? It's just that her hands and feet really aren't clean! "
"Madam, I really didn't think of arguing with you, just spare us, master and servant." As Aunt Bai said this, she gave a meaningful look to Peony before both Master and servant knelt in front of Lin Loong, begging pitifully.
"You bastards!"
Lin Loong screamed as her chest heaved. She had thought of taking this opportunity to regain control of the country, but she had never thought of using such a method. She had never thought of using such a despicable method.
In front of Old Duke and the madame, this b * tch pretended to be weak, making it seem as if she was being overbearing.
Lin Loong felt a stifling pain in her chest. It was hard for her to do anything about it, even if it meant being unable to do anything about it. It was an extremely painful experience for her.
She raised her hand and fanned Aunt Bai ...
