Volume 1: Yun Family Has a Daughter Chapter 28: A Complete Falling Out
She checked the old lady's pulse and breathing, and only when she was sure that the old lady had merely fainted did she put her mind at ease. She didn't want to be responsible for the old lady getting into trouble with her father!
He glanced at those silly girls and said coldly, "Don't you have eyes? The old lady has fainted, why don't you hurry to support her onto the bed?"
Seeing several young girls trembling with fear, doing exactly as they were told, Mo Mo smiled in satisfaction and slowly walked up to Yun Yue and her mother, looking at them with a playful expression, and asked with a smile:
"Alright, who came up with this idea?"
Yun Yue and her mother felt a chill in their hearts. At this moment, they only felt that the smiling woman in front of them was extremely terrifying. The scene of Li Yong rolling on the ground and wailing earlier kept replaying in their minds, and it wasn't until now that they realized she had never actually taken revenge on them before!
"What's wrong, won't you speak? Or should I say, this time around, both you and your mother are involved?"
Momo thought about this matter, and the mother-daughter duo must have had a share in it. She didn't believe they didn't know what kind of person Li Yong was!
"No, sister, this matter has nothing to do with us. It was Auntie who suddenly mentioned it this morning, we really didn't know about it beforehand!"
Yun Yue's face changed slightly, and she pulled Mu Mu's arm, saying hastily.
Mo Mo's hand lightly waved, shaking off her hand, deliberately in front of her, took out a handkerchief and wiped the place she had just pulled, as if there was something disgusting on her body.
Yun Yue's face turned green with rage, when had she ever suffered such humiliation?
"That's strange, she dislikes me so much, if it wasn't for you guys egging her on, would she have done that?"
In the government office, this mother and daughter regarded her as a thorn in their eyes and a knife to their heart. Combining what Bi Lan said last time, apart from them, no one else would think of doing such a thing.
"Hum, who knows if you've been flirting with Rong'er every day, and that's why Rong'er convinced Eldest Sister to agree to marry you. Your mother was the same back then, following Master back without any reputation or status. Where can a lowly creature like you go?"
"Bang!"
Before Lee's insult was finished, Wu You, who was standing aside, slapped her hard with a loud slap, and Lee fell to the ground after spinning around, seeing stars.
"Daughter, what's wrong with you?"
Yun Yue saw her mother being beaten and didn't care about anything else. She quickly squatted down to examine the wound.
"Clap, clap, clap," Yun Mo applauded and sneered: "What a deep mother-daughter relationship! Oh my, little sister, I didn't know that in our household, you can actually call a servant 'mother'!"
All along, Yunyue had been at odds with her. At first, she thought she was young and didn't understand things, so she didn't bother to argue with her. But unexpectedly, in the horse arena, she instructed Bì Lǜ to release a wild horse, almost letting her die under its hooves. And today, she designed this again, wanting to make her marry that pervert, almost causing her mother to be punished. Even if she was magnanimous and forgiving, she wouldn't let off someone who repeatedly framed her, not to mention that she had never been a kind-hearted person!
"Sister, why are you again so harsh and forceful today? Aunt was momentarily confused and said a few unpleasant words, sister, why must you grasp onto it and not let go? If this gets out, what good will it do for your reputation?"
Yun Yue was unwilling to be at a disadvantage and twisted his face into a threatening expression.
"Sister, you're really naive! My mother is the mistress of Yunfu, while Li is a concubine. A concubine dares to speak ill of the mistress, this is a serious crime!"
Looking at Yun Yue still not giving up, it seems that she was really too kind in the past!
"Someone come, go call the housekeeper and his wife over!"
Mo Mo didn't want to waste any more time with them, so she directly had someone go find the housekeeper.
"Yes!"
Xia Lian by Tong's side heard this and hastily ran out with a happy expression, she had long been displeased with Li Niang.
Before long, Guan Ping and his wife Tan arrived.
Guan Ping and his wife came in and paid their respects to the crowd according to their ranks, and when they saw Li Niang on the ground, there was no change in their expression.
Mo Mo nodded silently, this Guan Ping had gained his father's trust and managed the household properly, not without reason.
"Steward, no need for formalities! I called you here because I wanted to ask you, what should be done with the slaves in the mansion who dare to be disrespectful to their mistress?"
For Guan Ping, Meng Meng still has a lot of respect and doesn't dare show off in front of him.
"This servant doesn't deserve Miss's kindness! In the Yun household, if a servant is disrespectful to their master, they should be beaten with thirty slaps and driven out of the house!"
Moistly nodded her head, very satisfied with this punishment, looking at Li Niang's body shaking, laughing very heartily.
"What if the master of the house doesn't distinguish between superior and inferior, and acknowledges his aunt as his mother?"
"Miss Hui, you are fined 50 strokes of the ruler on your palm and must copy out the Family Rules one hundred times!"
Guan Ping's expressionless face said, without uttering an extra word.
"Sister, Li Shiyi, did you both hear that clearly? Guan the housekeeper, these two are indeed the ones who broke the family rules this time. Whatever punishment they deserve, let them have it. If I show favoritism, I'm afraid it will be hard to convince everyone."
Mo Mo changed her expression and let out a sigh, as if punishing this mother-daughter pair was making them so much trouble!
"You wretched woman, how dare you punish me? When the old mistress wakes up, she won't let you off!"
Li Yinniang sprang up like a madwoman and shouted, her eyes flashing with malice as she glared at Momo.
"Sister, I am your sister, you have no right to punish me! Aunt is in charge of the household chores, it's not up to you to say hit and then hit, or say kick out and then kick out!"
Yun Yue couldn't help but stand up, holding onto her righteous stance, and said with a just and stern tone.
"You didn't mention it, I had almost forgotten. Now the old lady is unwell and the concubine is being disobedient again. This is really not suitable for the concubine to be in charge of anymore. When Father returns, I will report this to him and let Mother take over. Then, little sister won't have to worry anymore!"
Mo Mo glanced at Yun Yue and said comfortingly, as if she was really afraid that Yun Yue would worry about the big and small things in the mansion being handled by no one.
Yun Yue's face twitched with anger, but she couldn't say anything to refute it. Whatever this little wretch proposed, Father would definitely agree to it.
"Come to think of it, my sister said I have no right to punish you, which is true, but Mother can, you don't distinguish between superior and inferior, and take a servant as your mother, what kind of place does that put Mother in?"
After finishing speaking, he ignored Yunyue's gaze which was filled with shame and anger, turned his head to his mother and said: "Mother, how should sister be punished, please instruct me!"
Mother, you can't be soft-hearted towards this mother and daughter anymore. Otherwise, in the future, they will only ride on your neck and do as they please. Don't waste my efforts.
Tong Shi looked at Mo Mo with difficulty, then looked at Yun Yue with difficulty, and was in a dilemma.
For Yun Yue, she still has feelings, in her opinion, Yun Yue is still young, a child, inherently without malice, only this time, if not slightly punished, not only will her own prestige be lost, but also her daughter's face will be completely lost!
