Chapter 16: Evil Slave
Jiang Yishi walked straight into the bedroom and opened the closet. There were quite a few outer garments, and they were quite new. However, there were only four sets of Chinese pants inside, all of which were washed and yellowed, and one set was shortened by a large margin. Several pairs of socks are yellowed, and the holes that are broken have not been patched.
Jiang Yishi sank his face and said, “Every season, the house will give the master to do two outerwear, two Chinese pants, two pairs of shoes, four pairs of socks,…… how the Chinese pants are only a few sets, and this set should be the year before last. And socks, how come there are only these pairs, is the needle and thread room withholding from the second master?”
Xiao Zen scared pale, busy shaking his head, “No, the needle and thread room did not deduct.”
Jiang Yishi said, “Then you stole them?”
Xiao Zen knelt down, “Slave girl dare not, slave girl did not steal ……”
“Not you stole you tell the truth, in the end who stole. If you still want to help that thief, to be punished as an accomplice, hit the board directly sold out.”
Xiao Zen cried, “It’s Sister Yu, she said that the second master has a lot of clothes, it’s a pity that he can’t wear them all, so he took them back for his youngest son to wear.”
Jiang Yishi sat down on the kang and said coldly, “What else did Sister Yu deduct from the second master, tell me everything.”
She also asked Shui Xiang to call Jiang Xun’s boy Wang Fu.
With the little Zen’s account, Jiang Yishi listened more and more shocked, that lackey’s guts are also too big. Before she was still thinking about how to dig a pit for Granny Yu to oust her, but she didn’t expect that granny to dig the pit herself.
After Jiang Chen’s death, Yu’s mother-in-law began to steal and go to the outer courtyard to be even more bold. From the inside of the clothes, socks and other wear, to pen and ink, tea bowls and other use, as well as some broken silver and copper, as long as other people can not see at a glance, she dared to pull their own scratch. Only one thing, Jiang Xun monkey eat, Yu granny absolutely can not touch his food.
Jiang Xun also knows that Yu granny will take some of his things back to his grandson, did not put on the heart. He thought that he wouldn’t be able to use it up anyway, so he might as well make the best use of it.
Jiang Yishi was so angry that his liver ached. Jiang Xun is a big man, and he doesn’t care about anything. To put it nicely, he’s not too modest, but to put it badly, he’s a little short-sighted. What do you mean by making the best use of things, this is raising thieves, raising their appetite, raising tigers.
She was even more angry with herself. Never put this brother who was born without a mother and died at the age of eight, regardless of his life, and never educated him. She was sorry for her brother, and even more sorry for her dead father and mother.
Jiang Yishi took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears.
Wang Fu came back, he is a year younger than Xiao Zen, a little kid. Jiang Yishi a scare, he cried out in fear, know all about it, than Xiao Zen said more carefully.
Jiang Yishi asked Shui Xiang to invite Luo Luo from Ruyi Hall.
Seeing the kneeling maids and boys puzzled on the ground, Luo Luo laughed and said, ”Are they the ones who made the second girl angry? Girl quickly don’t be angry, have someone hit them with twenty plates and throw them out.”
Xiao Zen and Wang Fu cried even harder, yelling, “Second Miss spare your life, Sister Luo spare your life.”
Jiang Yishi pulled Luo Luo to the closet and pointed to the clothes inside and said with tears, “Who made us siblings fatherless and motherless, we deserve to be bullied. However, being bullied by a lackey like this, how can I think about ……”
Luo Luo was busy helping Jiang Yishi to sit on the bed and asked, “What’s going on?”
Xiao Zen and Wang Fu cried again and told the matter of Grandma Yu.
Luo Luo scolded, “That dead granny, she’s got a lot of guts.”
She knew that Granny Yu was Steward Yu’s sister, but this matter had already gotten out of hand, so she was afraid that it couldn’t be resolved. She asked a few maids to wrap up all the clothes in the closet and go to Ruyi Hall together to report to the old madam.
Jiang and Jiang third wife, Jiang big grandma are in Ruyi accompanied by the old lady jokes, see a group of people walked in, minion hand bags, Jiang Yishi eyes are crying red, wondering.
Jiang big lady asked, “shi girl this is what happened?”
Jiang Yishi went to the old madam and knelt down, crying, “Please grandmother for me and my brother. My brother was bullied by evil slaves like this, how dare my granddaughter go to the manor alone.”
The old lady was suspicious, “What happened?”
Luo Luo then told the story, and opened the package to let everyone see the clothes inside.
Although the old lady herself didn’t treat that grandson well, she definitely wouldn’t allow the lackeys to bully him like this.
She was so angry that she slapped the kang table and scolded, “Dirty slave, how dare you trample on your master like this.” She also looked at Grand Madame Jiang, “You are the lady of the house, or Xun Er’s great-uncle, that lackey has been stealing Xun Er’s things for several years, don’t say you don’t know.”
Jiang Dame was so scared that she hurriedly stood up and begged for forgiveness, “It’s my daughter-in-law who didn’t check, my daughter-in-law really, really didn’t know. That old bastard is too hateful, daughter-in-law will definitely be punished severely.”
Jiang Yishi secretly slandered, how is it possible that the eldest madam did not know at all, she just did not think that mother-in-law Yu would steal so much. There was no way to tolerate the old madam herself, but she couldn’t let the big house ride over her head like this. Jiang Chen used his life to exchange for the benefits of this family, these people only know how to enjoy themselves, but don’t care about the orphans’ deaths.
She said, ”It’s no wonder that eldest old lady doesn’t know. I heard that Granny Yu’s elder brother has some power in the house, and those who know the truth would not dare to talk too much in front of Great Auntie.”
These words severely irritated the old lady, and she gasped, “Although our Jiang family is declining, it is still an uncle’s house with a title. A lackey’s power is actually greater than the master’s, where can I find such a rule. Min, how do you manage this family? I don’t believe that you don’t know the inside story at all, you ignore the orphans and orphans and condone the slaves to bully their masters, aren’t you afraid of ruining my eldest son’s reputation and letting this family fall even further into disrepair?”
The eldest lady was so scared that she knelt down.
The old madam let her maid help Jiang Yishi up, “Pitiful child, letting you siblings suffer. Alas, I’m old, thought I had aunts and uncles to look after me, so I didn’t pay much attention to you, who would have thought that even a servant girl would ride on your head. I am sorry for the second son over there ……”
These words put the third wife of Jiang also said in, scared her hurriedly get up to ask for forgiveness.
The old lady wiped up her tears and started talking about Jiang Chen’s goodness again and how much profit his death brought to the big and third houses. Min s ability is limited and selfish, in the future, the oldest three daughters-in-law to help share the center feed ……
Jiang Yishi didn’t believe in the old lady’s tears, this old lady didn’t have such good feelings for Jiang Chen. She acted in such a way, one is just to seize this matter to clean up the two daughters-in-law, so that they will clamp their tails a little more tightly. The second was to make some profit for her beloved third son, and to legitimately let her third daughter-in-law participate in the management of the house.
Jiang Yishi is still delighted. Although this offends the big house, the third house will be closer to their sister-in-law because of the benefits.
Ruyi Hall was filled with noise, and several girls who came to ask for peace were stopped from coming in.
The boys in the outer courtyard were dismissed from school, and only then did they all enter Ruyi Hall together.
The old lady also reprimanded Jiang Xun, said he did not take out the master’s money to clean up the lackeys. No matter what, should also look for elders for him.
