The mistress was reborn and broke off the engagement, the regent cried and begged to marry into the

The little maid quietly waited for a reply. It was obvious that the lady would take back the housekeeper's power after her recovery.

I sent someone over specifically to inform them, hoping that the girl would be aware of the situation and take the initiative to hand it over.

Shangguan Haitong smiled: "I understand. I'll go see my mother later, you go down first."

"Yes." The little maid bowed and retreated.

The eldest girl is a daughter after all, and she will definitely not go against her biological mother's wishes.

Shangguan Haitong slowly used the lid to remove the tea leaves, and the emotion in her eyes was unclear. She put down the teacup and took out the embroidered handkerchief to gently wipe the corners of her lips.

Shangguan Haitong smiled lightly, then stood up and went to the main courtyard.

Main courtyard.

With her worries gone, Yang Lanyi lay comfortably on the couch, with Aunt Zhou and her maids serving her.

Shangguan Haitong entered the room and bowed: "My daughter greets my mother. I wish my mother a happy and healthy life."

Yang Lanyi sat up and said with a smile: "My sister is here to accompany me, and the maidservants are here to serve me. I have recovered a lot from my illness. You came at the right time, and you have never looked at the account books in the mansion. Now that I am well, you don't need to look at them. Please return the key to the storehouse to save us the trouble."

Aunt Zhou lowered her eyebrows and looked submissive, and used moderate strength to massage the mistress' legs. A lady is a lady, and her status is superior to others.

Shangguan Haitong smiled faintly: "Illness comes like a mountain falling, and goes away like a thread being pulled out. Mother should take good care of herself for a few more days to prevent the disease from recurring. Your daughter is particularly worried about your mother's illness, and she has specially consulted the doctor today. Resting is the best, and it is not advisable to work hard."

"I feel fine, just hand over the keys. Even if I don't feel well occasionally, my sister is there to help me. You haven't done anything wrong in these days of housekeeping. Return the keys as soon as possible so that everyone can have less worries." Yang Lanyi reproached.

Glancing at Aunt Zhou, Shangguan Haitong said calmly, "Yes. I'll bring the key tomorrow."

Yang Lanyi waved her hands impatiently: "I know. If you have nothing else, go down."

"My daughter will take her leave." Shangguan Haitong bowed and left.

Aunt Zhou looked at the receding figure and had a vague premonition that she might not be able to get the key to the storehouse back.

What would a big girl do?

You can't do that to your own mother...

in the afternoon.

Huanshuang woke up and served us with great energy.

Shangguan Haitong picked up a pen and practiced calligraphy: "Huan Shuang, go do something."

"Miss, please tell me." Huanshuang obeyed the order.

Shangguan Haitong said casually: "Tell Madam Fang one thing: wait for good news."

"Yes." Huanshuang went to do it immediately.

She didn't know when the girl got in touch with Nanny Fang, she just knew to complete the order.

When Nanny Fang heard this, her face changed and she nodded heavily after a moment.

Huan Shuang thought of something and asked casually, "How is Jiuge?"

"Very well." Nanny Fang looked worried.

She had something else to do, so she left first.

Huanshuang couldn't understand. Nanny Fang was the mistress's dowry and should be loyal to her master.

What leverage can the girl have?

What good news are you waiting for?

night.

Madam is getting better. I will boil the last dose of medicine today.

Nanny Fang sent all the maids away and poured the medicine into the bowl herself.

As the amount of medicine in the bowl increased, she couldn't help but think of the older girl.

"Madam Fang, your nephew and Jiuge are in love with each other, and I will not break them up. You have to understand one thing, I can make them happy, but I can also destroy them. And your son lying in bed, he needs a lot of precious medicinal herbs, right?"

"How could I harm my own mother? But I hope she behaves herself and doesn't come to ruin my business. There will be no difference in your serving her in the future, but she must shut up when she should. Do you understand? Otherwise, I will make sure that your family will never be able to speak."

The elder girl smiled and patted her shoulders twice, but Nanny Fang felt as if she was weighed down by a thousand pounds.

The lady is too naive and is no match for the older girl.

She had been living in the backyard for most of her life, so she didn't need to know everything. Just a little bit of information could give her a glimpse of some of the girl's methods.

Take the key to the warehouse. Let Wu Laowu enter the inner courtyard. Is it really not the work of the eldest lady?

The lady cut the wages, but the people below were angry but dared not say anything.

The eldest girl did not make any rectifications after taking over, which shows that she is very satisfied with the situation.

The key was taken away, and the seed of suspicion of Aunt Zhou was planted in the minds of the master and the mistress.

Replace all the servants in the main courtyard...

Nanny Fang couldn't count how much benefit the young lady had gained from that game. How could the lady be able to compete with such a person?

She walked towards the main courtyard with the medicine, entered the house and said with a smile, "Madam, take the medicine."

Yang Lanyi turned away with a look of disgust: "It's too hard. If you're not sick, who would want to suffer this?"

Nanny Fang comforted her, "Madam, your health has improved. This is the last dose of medicine. You have suffered so much before, you can't fail at the last step, right? The eldest lady promised to return the key to the warehouse tomorrow. Madam, take the medicine, and rest early to get enough energy."

"You're right." A short pain is worse than a long one. Yang Lanyi frowned and drank the medicine in one gulp.

Nanny Fang immediately served candied fruit.

Yang Lanyi took it and held it in her mouth to slowly taste the bitter taste: "If it weren't for that damn Wu Laowu, I wouldn't have to suffer this kind of punishment. It's a good thing that he got drunk and died at home. In my opinion, he should be beaten to death and thrown into a mass grave. It would save me the trouble."

Nanny Fang smiled but said nothing.

When will the lady understand that it is different? No matter how much you hate someone, you can't let him die at home.

Yang Lanyi muttered for a while and then yawned: "I'm tired. I'm going to sleep first. You should also go to bed early."

"Yes." Nanny Fang helped the mistress to the bed, lowered the gauze curtain, walked out of the room and closed the door.

She turned around and saw the maid on duty tonight. She was standing respectfully beside her but looked like a wild beast staring at her eagerly.

"Guard the madam well." Nanny Fang instructed in a deep voice.

The maid bowed and responded.

Nanny Fang went to Luowan Courtyard and found that the hall was brightly lit.

Shangguan Haitong sat in the main seat, with Baoying kneeling below her, who was able to get out of bed after resting.

Her heart tightened, and Nanny Fang bowed first.

Shangguan Haitong raised her hand and said, "Huan Shuang, arrange for Bao Ying to do the cleaning. The doctor's money is waived, and you should work hard in the future. Go down. Nanny Fang, since you came here so late at night, I think the matter must have been done."

Huanshuang went over to help Baoying up and took her out to settle her down.

Nanny Fang knelt down with a worried look in her eyes: "Yes."

Shangguan Haitong elegantly arranged the embroidered handkerchief in her hand and said, "Well done. Just go to the warehouse to get the herbs your son needs."

"Thank you, young lady." Nanny Fang pondered for a moment and asked, "Young lady, you knew that Baoying was Aunt Zhou's woman, so why did you keep her here?"

The corners of her lips curled up, Shangguan Haitong looked down coldly: "Because she is more useful alive than dead, and she is more frightening in my courtyard than in other places. Do you think Aunt Zhou will do something? I hope she will do something desperate."

Nanny Fang swallowed her saliva and said, "Since the aunt came into the mansion, she has been gentle and kind, and has never overstepped the boundaries. Why can't the young lady tolerate her?"

Shangguan Haitong raised her eyes, her gaze was cold: "Madam Fang, the reason why I am patient with you is because you serve my mother. Over the years, you have done a lot of things for our family behind my mother's back. I let you go, but that doesn't mean I will tolerate your meddling."

Shocked, Nanny Fang kowtowed quickly and said, "I have spoken nonsense. Please forgive me, young lady."
