The Duke's Daughter is Reborn
Chapter 380: Rod Responsibility
Xing'er and Jin Mama behind An looked at each other, then Xing'er stepped forward slightly, bowed and said, "Duke, the Madam has been in the courtyard these past few days and has never stepped out of the main house.
It was Aunt Yin who came here today on her own initiative. Madam was worried that something unexpected might happen, so she stood in the courtyard and talked to Aunt Yin."
Mother Jin continued, "My Lord, Madam has been thinking about countermeasures and reflecting on herself in the house these days.
Why did he push Aunt Yin in front of so many people today?
Besides, before today, Madam didn’t know that Aunt Yin was pregnant.”
Xing'er and Mother Jin's words took effect, and Song Hongwen looked at An with some confusion in his eyes.
An Shi also came to her senses: "My Lord, it was Aunt Yin who told me today that she knew the key and secret of Changshou Hall, so I came forward.
But who would have thought that as soon as I approached Aunt Yin, she fell backwards.
In such a hurry, even if I wanted to help Aunt Yin, it would be too late. "
Aunt Yin in Song Hongwen's arms paused, and then Mother Luo, who had been pretending to be stupid, suddenly knelt down and cried, "Duke, today Aunt Yin was worried that Madam would feel uncomfortable because she was confined to her room for the past few days, so she came here to talk to Madam.
However, the Madam believed that Aunt Yin came here to show off. "
As soon as Mother Luo opened her mouth, Aunt Yin quickly struggled and said, "Mother Luo, don't talk nonsense."
Mother Luo looked at Aunt Yin with tears in her eyes and said, "Duke, for so many years, there are some things in my heart that Aunt has always forbidden me to say, but under the circumstances today, even if I risk being scolded by Aunt, I will say what is in my heart.
Over the years, my aunt has been living under the mistress's care, and the share of money she deserves has been repeatedly deducted.
In the middle of winter, the lady reduced all the charcoal that the concubine was entitled to into stove charcoal. Stove charcoal would smoke as soon as it touched the fire, so it was impossible to use it in the house for heating.
But my aunt is worried that your Highness will know about this and cause conflicts in the mansion, so she can only use her remaining silver money to buy some silver charcoal.
Auntie treats these silver charcoals like treasures, and only gives some out when the Duke comes to Liuli Courtyard."
Mother Luo's words were very measured, and Song Hongwen felt pity for her after hearing them.
“No wonder, every time I come to Liuli Courtyard without informing the servants first, the courtyard is filled with smoke.
Yin'er, you also told me that it was the cook in the small kitchen who was not good at cooking soup.
I didn't know that my woman had lived like this in the Duke's Mansion for so many years!"
Feeling Song Hongwen's tenderness and love, Aunt Yin looked at the Duke with affection: "Yin'er only wishes to be able to serve the Duke all her life. As long as she can be by the Duke's side, Yin'er will be satisfied."
Seeing Aunt Yin acting so pretentiously, An was already furious, but with the Duke here, An was really helpless against Aunt Yin.
But in the current situation, the more Concubine Yin pretends to be like this, the more the Duke will dislike An, and things will inevitably develop in an uncontrollable direction.
Just as Mother Jin was about to open her mouth to argue for her master, she was strongly rebuked by Song Hongwen.
"An, as the mistress of the Duke's Mansion, this is how you manage your household chores!
Regarding Changshou Hall and loan sharking, I thought you were being wronged or tricked, but I didn't expect that you are such a stupid, jealous, and shrew with no sense of the overall situation.
Come, drag him away and beat him! "
As soon as Song Hongwen said this, everyone in the room knelt down.
The punishment of caning has always been used only on slaves who made mistakes. This is the first time that the Duke of Song has been punished in this way. It is obvious that the Duke was really mad at An today.
How could An allow herself to be humiliated by the caning? "Duke, are you really going to trample on the face of me, the mistress of the house, today?"
Song Hongwen glanced at An coldly and said, "You vicious woman, you dared to murder the heir of the Duke's Mansion, and now you come to ask for your own face!"
Seeing that the servant dared not move, Song Hongwen shouted loudly to the outside of the house: "Are you all deaf? Or I can't command you anymore!
Come, fight! "
Song Hongwen got angry, and the servants and maids outside the house dared not continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb, so they had to go into the house and pretend to drag An away.
But how could Jin Mama, Xing'er and other maids of the An family let the Madam be punished so easily? For a moment, the maids and servants in each courtyard started to fight with each other.
It was the servant around Song Hongwen who injured Jin Mama and several of the maids, used force to stabilize the situation, and took An out of the house.
For a moment, An's cry for help echoed throughout the main house.
These things that happened in the main house had long since spread to all the courtyards in the Duke of Song's Mansion.
The old lady went to the Buddhist hall in the upper room.
Mother Rong told the old lady the latest news: "It's such a pity for this child. The Duke has been waiting for so many years, and finally one came." Unexpectedly, the child died just like that.
The older she gets, the more sincere the old lady becomes in praying to gods and Buddhas, and the more she believes in them.
Slowly opening her eyes, the old lady asked, "Have you verified that Aunt Yin is pregnant?"
Mother Rong lowered her head and said, "I have checked it, the time is correct."
Seeing the old lady getting ready to get up, Rong's mother hurried forward to support her: "Old lady, do you suspect that there is something fishy about Aunt Yin's pregnancy this time?"
The old lady's expression remained unchanged: "It's not that I doubt it, I just think it's a bit too coincidental."
Everyone in the Duke's Mansion knew that Mrs. An was under house arrest, but Concubine Yin went to pay her respects to Mrs. An just when she was pregnant.
Although An is a little arrogant on weekdays, he is not stupid.
If An knew that Aunt Yin was pregnant today, she would definitely not let her miscarry in front of the main house in front of everyone.
Even if An really didn't want Aunt Yin's child to be born, she would still secretly plan and look for an opportunity.
In short, it will definitely not be like it is now.
In the Duke's Mansion, there are many people who share the same ideas as the old lady.
In Qinfang Courtyard, Yang Lan was arranging the potted plants in front of him, with a hint of sarcasm on his face: "This trap has too many traces."
Nanny Li accompanied Yang Lan on the side: "As long as we achieve our goal and gain the love of the Duke, it's worth it even if there are traces."
Putting down the scissors in her hand, Yang Lan fiddled with the flowers in her hand: "Madame Li, do they look good?"
Yang Lan was taught the art of bonsai by Nanny Li, and with the guidance of a master, both the layout and the artistic conception are extremely ornamental.
"Miss, you have trimmed the flowers very well today. It is pleasing to the eyes."
Nanny Li always spoke in a steady and reliable manner. Yang Lan knew that when Nanny Li said it was good, it must mean that she thought the potted plant was well made.
Yang Lan looked at the flowers and said with a smile, "These artificially cultivated flowers bloom brilliantly and dazzlingly, and seem to be full of aggression, but in fact they are strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
After a violent storm, these flowers would be injured if not dead.
On the contrary, the weeds on the roadside have always been inconspicuous, but they can withstand wind, frost and rain.
The weeds are so peaceful, who can tell whether they are lying dormant, waiting for the right moment to strike?"
Yang Lan exerted a little force on her hands, and the roots of the flower that was originally blooming most beautifully broke.
Although the flower is still gorgeous now, even a three-year-old child knows that without water and nutrients, this scene will not last long.
