The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

It was also her fault that she didn't pay attention to these things on a daily basis. She didn't have a concubine in the Zhuang Mansion before, and she didn't have a concubine in the Chen Mansion for more than ten years, so she almost forgot the rules.

She slapped herself hard and said, "Madam, please forgive me. It's all because I didn't teach you well."

"What's the point of slapping yourself? It's not your fault. There are so many people in this mansion. Can anyone who makes a mistake in the future slap you? It's all because you didn't teach yourself well."

Meng Wen Yao finished speaking calmly and watched what Nanny Zhuang did. As long as Nanny Zhuang dared to hit Liu Ruyan, the two would definitely become enemies in the future. If Nanny Zhuang didn't dare to hit Liu Ruyan, it would mean that she was not very good at managing servants, and the task of managing the backyard could be done by someone else.

"Why, Madam Zhuang doesn't know how to discipline the servants? Do I need to tell her to slap you for the third time?"

Meng Wen Yao pressed forward step by step. Nanny Zhuang looked up at Liu Ruyan. Liu Ruyan was Chen Qianmo's favorite. If she continued to beat her, how would she explain to Chen Qianmo?

If she didn't fight, wouldn't that be clearly disobeying the lady's orders?

She said anxiously, "Madam, Aunt Liu just came into the mansion today, how about..."

"How about letting her go? Madam Zhuang, do you protect everyone in the mansion who makes a mistake, or do you only protect Madam Liu? Is it so unfair for a housekeeper to get into trouble?"

"In the past, have you also rewarded or punished others based on your own preferences?"

"No, I didn't." Madam Zhuang hurriedly explained. If the reputation of unclear rewards and punishments spread, she would have to scold and discipline other servants in the future.

She knelt forward, almost pulling Meng Wenyao's feet and said, "Madam, please forgive me. I was confused for a moment..."

"Now that I have taught you, do you still want to remain confused?"

"Slap him!" Meng Wen Yao ordered again.

Nanny Zhuang looked at the people around her who were staring at her. In order to get the position of manager, she had to hit him. She raised her palm and slowly moved it towards Aunt Liu's face.

"You dare!" Liu Ruyan suddenly shouted.

"Meng Wenyao, you are targeting me on purpose because Brother Qianmo likes me and doesn't like you. You are targeting me on purpose. It's not a rule for you to hit me. It's just that you are selfish and vicious. If you dare to hit me, Brother Qianmo will not let you go."

Xiaoju rubbed her palms with a few "pa pa pa" sounds, and said distressedly: "When I was in our Meng Mansion, there was never a servant who dared to contradict the mistress so much. I haven't hit anyone for many years. I didn't expect that there were so many servants in the Chen Mansion who didn't know respect and inferiority. In the future, Madam Zhuang won't be able to discipline them, so I have to take action to discipline them for the Madam. It's a pity for my white and tender hands."

"Yes, we are sorry to trouble our little girl, there is a jade cream in the old man's storeroom. I will ask someone to bring it to you to reduce the swelling later."

Liu Ruyan listened to Meng Wenyao and Xiaoju's conversation as if they were alone, touched her swollen face, and suddenly exploded.

"Meng Wenyao, I'll fight for you!!"

She stood up and was about to rush over, but Madam Zhuang hugged Aunt Liu and urged her, "Aunt, please be careful. You are just slapping her now. If you continue to make trouble, it will not be as simple as slapping her."

Meng Wen Yao gently waved her folding fan and looked down at Liu Ruyan, as if saying, "Come here!"

Liu Ruyan suddenly understood that Meng Wen Yao was deliberately provoking her. She couldn't let Meng Wen Yao get her wish. There was plenty of time in the future, and she would definitely find Meng Wen Yao's fault.

Then she will avenge herself.

"Madame Zhuang, let's go!"

Aunt Liu gave Meng Wenyao a vicious look and left. Aunt Zhuang said guiltily, "Madam, I'll take my leave."

When Madam Zhuang took two steps back and was about to turn around and leave, Meng Wenyao said slowly, "Madam Zhuang!"

Madam Zhuang was quick-witted and immediately stepped forward and said respectfully, "Madam, please give me your orders."

"Oh, nothing."

Meng Wenyao looked at Aunt Liu who was walking away and said sarcastically, "Where does Aunt Liu live?"

"Return to Madam, I will live in Yilan Courtyard."

Fearing that Meng Wenyao would find fault again, Madam Zhuang immediately added, "It was the young master who instructed us to do so. He also arranged it and led the people in."

The faint smile on Meng Wenyao's face slowly faded. She stood up and walked around Madam Zhuang, saying coldly, "Madam Zhuang, I thought you were a good person, but now it seems that you have no rules and are so confused in doing things."

"The Yilan Courtyard is the largest courtyard next to the young master. You let a concubine live in it. May I ask where you will let Madam Chen live in the future?"

"Young Master is ignorant and only thinks about the pleasure in front of him. As his wet nurse, why don't you remind him to have a long-term vision? Are you planning to not give any face to the future young lady?"

After saying this, Meng Wenyao kindly helped Madam Zhuang up and said earnestly, "I am also thinking about Madam. If the young lady comes in from now on, she will be resentful and will naturally not cause trouble for the young master. If Concubine Liu is favored, the young lady will naturally not dare to cause trouble. Guess who she will cause trouble for."

"Looking for the old servant?" asked Madam Zhuang.

Meng Wenyao looked like a teachable child and nodded, "Of course, who else should I look for if not you? She thought that you were the one who caused the young master to do these stupid things."

Thinking of this possibility, Nanny Zhuang wanted to cry but had no tears. She had served Chen Qianmo for more than ten years, and she would definitely rely on Chen Qianmo to support her in her old age. If Chen Qianmo's wife and concubines fell out, she would definitely choose to stand on one side.

If you choose Aunt Liu, you will definitely offend the future young lady and the current lady.

If he didn't choose Aunt Liu, would Chen Qianmo become alienated from her because Aunt Liu was wronged?

On the way back, she was still thinking about this matter. It was all Aunt Liu's fault. If she hadn't seduced Chen Qianmo to break off the engagement and occupied Chen Qianmo's heart as a concubine, so many things wouldn't have happened.

She entered Yilan Courtyard in a trance, and saw the servants standing in the yard, submissive and not daring to speak.

"What's wrong?" asked Madam Zhuang.

A little maidservant who was not very polite replied, "Didn't Madam Liu go to see the Madam? She went crazy when she came back, hitting people and throwing things. The Master is trying to persuade her in there now. Madam, go and have a look."

Nanny Zhuang knew that Liu Ruyan would definitely complain again. If Chen Qianmo was moved by what Liu Ruyan said, and went to the main room to make trouble with Meng Wenyao again, she didn't dare to imagine how the elder would deal with it.

She strode towards the main room of Yilan Courtyard, not caring whether the person inside called her in or not. She pushed the door open and looked at Liu Ruyan crying there with cold eyes.

"Meng Wenyao canceled her engagement just because you didn't like her and deliberately made trouble for me. On my first day, she not only didn't prepare a gift for me, but also slapped me in the face. Look at my face, it was all caused by her maid. My husband, you have to make the decision for me!!"
