"What do you think is going on?" I asked, pointing to Miss Xu's wet nurse.

Looking at the silk thread held by the Third Miss and the messy tassel of the jade pendant at the waist of the Fifth Miss, I felt as if everything could be placed in front of my eyes again.

It was obvious that Third Young Miss Xu did not care!

According to common sense, pointing to the servants beside the other young misses was an extremely rude thing to do. Compared to the Third Miss Xu and the Fifth Miss Xue, Fifth Miss and I are cousins after all, so it is naturally more appropriate to ask the people beside her.

However, doing so would inevitably bring down the reputation of being protective.

Comparing the two, I would rather be rude than be biased. Not only does it make the Xue Family hate me, it also makes the Xu Family look down on me, and it also makes the Wen Family's heart go cold.

The wet nurse's face turned red. She lowered her head and said in a mosquito-like voice, "This servant was just beside you. I didn't have the time to see it clearly."

I couldn't help but sneer!

He didn't even need to look at it clearly to push away all the responsibility!

"I still don't know if there is a wet nurse or if there is a lady here to take care of you!" I coldly spat out every word.

The wet nurse was shocked and quickly carried the Third Miss and looked her up and down carefully.

There was only a red mark next to the Third Miss' face. Judging from the look of it, it should have been pressed against the edge of the kang table.

The wet nurse breathed a sigh of relief, gently knelt on the ground, with an aggrieved look on her face: "It's this servant that couldn't take care of you, Miss Yang, please punish me!"

I can't help but be angry!

Even if you want to punish me, I won't punish you!

This wet nurse clearly knows that I can't act out because of my identity, so she boldly rebelled against me!

For a moment, the sound of a pin drop could be heard in the room.

All the ladies sat quietly, waiting to see what I would do.

The curtain of the door was lifted, and Lan Lingyun, along with two pretty maidservants, walked in, smiling, while carrying two large boxes of pear-colored flowers and birds.

I was wondering why it took so long to steam a steamed bun!

He had gone to the depths of the warehouse to look for the food!

When she saw the tense atmosphere in the room, she was stunned for a moment before instructing the two maidservants to stand by the door. She quickly walked to my side.

I focused a little, and even if she didn't know what was going on in the house, she would never say anything stupid like 'guilty'!

Seeing myself standing alone in front of the kang table, with five Miss Xue on the left and three Miss Xu on the right, Lan Li was stunned. She took out an embroidery block and placed it behind me.

I sat down on a stool and fiddled with something in my hand. My posture was much more relaxed now.

The thin porcelain core seemed as though it could be crushed at any moment. The green tea that was poured into it would result in the appearance of a beautiful and expensive white peony.

I drew on the tea leaves floating on the surface of the water with the lid of my cup, smiling as I looked at the servants of the Xu family.

"I didn't see any of them. It can't be that I didn't see any of them, right?" I laughed heartily.

I originally wanted Miss Xu San to apologize to Fifth Miss Xue, but the appearance of this mother disrupted my plans.

Now I have a better idea!

After all, there is an old saying, "A mere palm cannot clap". If Miss Xu, Third Miss Xue, and Fifth Miss Xue were to fight when our Yang Family is visiting, it would inevitably make people think that the two Miss are somewhat domineering and would damage Sister Lin's reputation!

Since Third Young Miss Xu and Fifth Young Miss Xue were fighting, the servants of the Xu family stood by their sides and did not notice them. This was no ordinary dereliction of duty. How could it be reassuring to let such a servant take care of a lady? If they were to continue to allow him to do as he pleases, wouldn't that mean that xiaojie wouldn't even know of the secret relationship between the two of them?

He might as well take this opportunity to force the Xu family to hand over the person who was with the third young miss over for a huge change in blood!

It must be known that loyal servants were trained from a young age. At the age of five, Third Young Miss Xu was around the same age. If she were to be replaced by someone else, it would be a complete gamble!

With the astute Second Miss by his side, it was easy to imagine the kind of person he would send into Third Young Miss's company!

I am very confident in Second Miss Xu's ability and shrewdness.

"Hmm?" I finished playing with the teacup and made a disgruntled sound with my nasal voice.

The Xu family's servants all had their hands down and their heads lowered. They were all extremely respectful, but none of them stood up to say what they saw.

I chuckled, "This is really a custom from everywhere. I didn't know that everyone in Beijing has such a rule!"

"Aiya! That's not good! Lady Xu wouldn't blame you for being nosy, would she? "Since this servant thinks so foolishly, why don't you ask Madam Xu?" Lan Li looked very frightened. She reached out and took the teacup and saucer from me.

It really did not disappoint me!

On my face, there was also a trace of fear and unease. I tightly clenched the handkerchief in my hands and muttered, "What you said makes a lot of sense!"

The lady of the Xu family kneeling on the floor suddenly raised her head to look at me. Her eyes were extremely sharp.

"Miss, I think it's better to clarify things before going!" The green bandit took a step forward and respectfully bowed. "If not, what is the explanation for the Xu ancestor's questions?"

The green bandits didn't usually talk much, but every word they said was on the point.

The two maidservants voiced out my thoughts in unison.

"As expected of you!" I patted Green Queen's hand and quietly winked at her.

There was not a trace of a smile on the Green Widow's face, but there was a cheerful glint in its eyes. It bent its knees and said, "This is what I should do!"

His voice was flat and calm.

Good girl!

Just a simple sentence that wasn't related to the Xu family was enough to slap the Xu family in the face!

"Since the servants of the Xu family did not see the whole story, did the Xue family see it clearly?" I asked the people around Miss Xue with a straight face.

The Xue Family's wet nurse let go of the Fifth Miss, and with a "plop", she kneeled on the ground, instantly becoming teary.

"Your servant has seen it!" She took out her handkerchief and wiped away her tears.

I secretly cheered in my heart. From the start, my momentum was not weak. One look at her and it was clear that she understood what was going on in my heart!

"Since no one in the Xu family has seen it, you can tell them about it!"

Stealthily glancing at the other two young ladies of the Xu family, Eldest Miss Xu sat tensely in her chair, a strange smile on her face. Second Miss Xu, on the other hand, was holding a cup of tea with a carefree look, as if she were a Buddha.

Just a moment ago, Eldest Miss Xu was defending her third younger sister, but now that she saw her younger sister being humiliated, the corners of her lips curled upwards as she sat there?

I couldn't help but recall the conversation between Second Young Miss Xu and Eldest Young Miss along the way.

Could it be that the Second Miss' words had taken effect?

If it was true, then this Second Miss really had some eloquence to her words!

Why don't we ask Lan Xiang, who followed them to pick flowers, at night?

Maybe she heard a few words!

"This servant has always been standing by young mistress's side, and has truly seen the truth in everything that happened!" The mother of the Xue family insisted. She then glanced at the lady kneeling opposite her, "My family's young miss is sitting on the brick bed playing with the jade that Miss Wen gave her. The young miss of the Xu family did not say anything about wanting to snatch it, but my family's young lady may be a scholar's young lady, but she also has a backbone. "Who would have thought that Third Miss would have such a temper. Not only did she overturn the table, she even grabbed my Young Miss's neck and beat her." As she spoke to here, the wet nurse was already in tears and snot. She didn't even speak properly anymore.

What a clever tongue!

It was just a battle between kids, but the wet nurse had to put on a scholarly front. She secretly ridiculed the Xu family for not knowing the rules and regulations. Third Miss flipped over the table in the brick bed, and was even more at a loss for words. My kang table is made of golden silk and zhennan wood. Even I can't move it, let alone a five-year-old child. The teapot shattered with a 'gulu' sound. Most likely, the impact of the fifth miss pushing the third miss was too great. The third miss stumbled onto the brick table, causing those items to fall off.

This could also explain the origin of the red mark on the Third Miss' face.

"Although our Xue Family isn't as powerful as the Xu Family, we are still an innocent family! Furthermore, the Fifth Miss has always been the apple of our Matriarch's eye since she was young.

On the opposite side, the Xu Family's wet nurse was simply flabbergasted by the sight of the Xue Family's wet nurse.

I couldn't help but sigh. In this room, there was no lack of people who could speak!

Little Lu had gone to great lengths to find this wet nurse!

What kind of royal relative was the Xu family? It was all thanks to the empress. If one were to speak of it in detail, one would be considered a concubine if one were to speak of her external relatives.

Although the Xue family had never given birth to a Queen's Consort, a son of a dragon and grandson, they were the aristocratic families of Jiangnan, a hundred years old family of poets and scholars! There was no way that Fifth Miss would be the apple of Old Lady Xue's eye.

But when these words came out, they were so beautiful that you couldn't refute them!

Listen to the sound, listen to the sound of the gongs and drums. This wet nurse of the Xue Clan clearly understood my meaning, which is why she reacted so quickly and said the most appropriate words at the right time.

I pretended to be angry and pointed at her while scolding loudly, "Since you saw it, why didn't you go and stop it?"

I saw the Xu's wet nurse sway her pale face.

On the other side, the Xue Niang had already opened her mouth, knocking her head against the green brick floor, "Miss Xu is very delicate, your servant is very clumsy, I really don't dare to touch her!"

This was secretly blaming the Xu family for clearly seeing that their daughter had gone over the line, but they did not try to stop her. Instead, they watched as she became more and more confused.

It seems like my previous guess that the Xu family handing over the responsibility of taking care of the other two young misses to the Second Miss was wrong.

It should be because the eldest young miss is the only one being restrained by her little sister. Otherwise, the second young miss would definitely not act as if it has nothing to do with her and just watch me throw all the dirty water onto the third young miss!

It was no wonder that she was able to put strict restrictions on the eldest young mistress, allowing the third young mistress to do as she pleased!

For such a young child, if he didn't tell her how to conduct herself, no matter how beautiful she was, she would only be a pawn in the clan when she married off in the future. At such critical moments, the daughters of those friends would often be the first to be abandoned by the family!

The second young miss' scheme is really a middle Chu, even I feel ashamed of myself!
