"Oh, I see, Madam Wang. I am usually very calm and composed. Isn't something wrong now?"

Baochan pouted helplessly and whispered a few words to refute, then stood up and bowed properly. Mother Wang stretched out her finger unhappily, gently tapped her forehead and admonished her.

"Nothing is worth your hassle. It's not like a wolf has taken the child and set the house on fire. Why are you so anxious? People outside who don't know would think that the servants in our third house are all panic-stricken!"

It was precisely because their wife came from a small family and could not compare to the wives of the first and second wives that the talents in the third wife had to be more careful in what they said and did, and not bring shame to their master.

"Okay, nurse, let's hear what interesting things this girl has found out outside. See how anxious she is."

It can be seen that Qin really likes this sweet-talking little maid. After Wang Mama gave her a lecture, didn't she rush out to help?

Putting down the account book she had been looking at all morning, she rubbed her temples with her fingers and asked with a smile on her face.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

The master asked, and the little maid instantly became energetic. She was not annoyed at being scolded just now, after all, she was used to being scolded since she was a child. She opened her little mouth and started talking.

"I was at the gatehouse just now, and I thought I saw the driver who brought Mr. Lin here last time. Oh, no, no, no, I heard that it was his cousin. He said he came to see Mr. Lin.

I asked around and from what I heard, it sounded like they were all having fun at the farm today and accidentally got into trouble.

Master, if I understand correctly, it should be our cousin, um, Miss Seven. It seems that she broke someone's leg!"

The maid said the last sentence in a tone of great surprise and anxiety.

After all, how could the delicate and pretty Miss Seven actually break someone's leg? A weak woman, unless she was forced to do so, would not be able to do such a cruel thing.

From this we can see that he must have been bullied!

"Break someone's leg?!"

Qin's eyes opened wide.

"This should be!"

Baochan's head clicked with a crisp sound.

"Although Mr. Lin's cousin didn't say it explicitly, but seeing that he looked like a grown man on the verge of tears, he must have been very anxious.

The concierge stopped him there, and I heard that the eldest lady was not in the house. Then I hurried back to report it! "

"Did you ask who was beaten?"

"I didn't ask any more questions."

Baochan took two steps forward and came in front of his master, asking carefully in a low voice.

"Master, the Second Madam doesn't seem to know about this yet. Do you want to take care of this matter? Otherwise, shall I go and bring the person in?"

Ever since the first time the Seventh Miss came to recognize her relatives, and her Third Branch lost face in front of the other branches, Qin had been feeling a little uncomfortable.

The servants were very good at guessing their masters' intentions, so they naturally wanted to do what their masters wanted. They always tried to turn the tables as much as possible and save face in front of the old lady.

Qin's eyelids moved.

She knew that her eldest sister-in-law was not at home. She heard a few days ago that her eldest niece seemed to be about to give birth. As a mother, her eldest sister-in-law would definitely go to Jingyang Bo's mansion from time to time to check on her. Otherwise, how could she feel at ease?

On the other hand, the second sister-in-law always likes to be picky and force herself to save face. Unfortunately, her husband's official position is higher than hers, and her family is more powerful than hers. She can't just avoid him in a hurry, otherwise she doesn't know how much gossip will be waiting for her in the future!

Alas, it is really not easy to be a daughter-in-law in a wealthy family. Not only do you have to maintain the interests of your husband's family and your own family, but you also have to manage the relationship between wives and concubines and the relationship between legitimate and illegitimate children in the inner courtyard. There are even hidden lawsuits between the mother-in-law, daughter-in-law, and sisters-in-law.

There were many times when Qin really envied her elder sister-in-law. She had a capable husband and a successful family. Not only did she have a son and a daughter, but there was also no seductive woman squatting in front of her to cause trouble.

Think about how rich and powerful they are.

Born to enjoy happiness.

Unlike her, who has endless things to worry about.

Ugh.

He stood up, smoothed the wrinkles on his sleeves, his eyes drifted towards the second room, he sighed softly and gave instructions.

"Yuchan, go to the Second Madam and report. Tell her everything Baochan just said from beginning to end.

Baochan, go to the gate now and bring that man to the flower hall in our courtyard. I will ask him about it first before making any decisions."

"Yes!"

"Slave, go now!"

The other maid standing next to her also bowed quickly and left. Mother Wang frowned slightly and asked in a low voice.

"Madam, should we go report to the old lady?"

"Don't go for now. I heard that because of all the things that happened to Princess Chenghua, the old lady couldn't eat or sleep well.

Yesterday, my sister-in-law invited Dr. Sun to give her acupuncture, and she finally felt better. Let's not go over and cause trouble for her.

Well, I'll tell you in detail after I've asked clearly. Nanny, ask someone to go to the kitchen to get some tea and snacks."

"Yes."

Second Madam Bai was indeed a straightforward person who did what she said and was very decisive. After listening to the report from the maid of the third room, she immediately brought people to Changya Garden.

Then the two sisters-in-law asked each other carefully, and finally they widened their eyes in surprise, and the two officials' wives looked at each other in bewilderment.

"...Um, Mr. Lin, please say it again, I didn't hear it clearly just now.

You said that the son of the Liu family claimed to be the son-in-law of the Gu family. I can figure it out. It's probably the so-called Wushuang Gongzi, right? He is a playboy who likes to flirt with other women. It's okay to beat him, it's not a big deal.

I was a little confused when I heard that. Who moved the hands? No, the feet?"

Bai refused to believe that her niece, who looked as delicate as a little snowy doll, could actually brutally break a grown man's leg?

Lin Yousheng was a little embarrassed, because he tended to talk nonsense when he was nervous. His parents and his sixth brother had clearly told him repeatedly not to talk about how strong his aunt was in front of outsiders, and not to say that her favorite thing to do was to break people's legs.

But just now, I accidentally blurted out the truth while talking. Nervously, I put my hands behind my back and wiped the sweat from my palms on the hem of my clothes.

Then he fumbled around and started trying to make up for it.

“Actually, this isn’t really my aunt’s fault.

It was the master and servant who first broke into the farm without reason and then unreasonably tried to steal the family property.

This, this is not stepping on my aunt's lungs, right? Why did he have to talk about the family business when he could have said something else?

Well, nobody wants it to be like this..."
