Chapter 326: Drive Away Diseases and Create Resentment

However, it was not until the latter half of the night that the maids followed Baoyu back to the Yihong Courtyard to settle down. But they didnt dare to sleep in the main room and only managed to make ends meet in the east and west rooms.

The next day, before dawn, Xiren, Qingwen, Sheyue, and others surrounded Jia Baoyu and carefully questioned him. After confirming that there were no abnormalities except for some mental distress, it was finally considered over.

At this moment, Madam Wang coincidentally came to visit her son, and all the maids withdrew and left the Eastern Chamber room for the mother and son.

Qingwen thought that the days in this east wing room wouldnt last any longer, so she went into the main room on her own and planned to tidy it up briefly. When she moved back in the future, she wouldn't panic.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she pulled out a feather duster from the heart-shaped jar in the corner, someone tiptoed into the living room behind her.

Qingwen thought it was Sheyue and Qiuyen who had come to haunt her, so she pretended not to know. When the footsteps approached, she suddenly turned around, held up the feather duster, and screamed.

Ah!

The visitor was indeed startled, and she tapped her chest like a heart twister. She blushed and said, "What are you doing? I came to inform you with kindness, but you still scared me.

Qingwen didn't see Sheyue or Qiuyen, but rather Caixia, the big maid next to Madam Wang. She felt a bit embarrassed and hid the feather duster behind her with a smile, saying, "Good sister, how will I know it was you?

She quickly changed the topic; she curiously said, "You said you wanted to give me some information; I wonder what kind of news it is?

You still dare to laugh

Caixia gave her a pale look and turned around to see no one outside. Then she said with a tone of expression, "Yesterday, Jinchuan learned the exact conversation between you and Lord Sun and reported it to the Madam. She suggested to Lord Sun to send you over to serve him all night.

What?!

Upon hearing this, Qingwen felt like a thunderbolt hit her, dropping the feather duster in her hand first, and then she fell backward in front of her.

Hey~ You... Qingwen? Qingwen?

Caixia hurriedly helped her up, pinching her philtrum and caressing her chest, finally causing Qingwen to wake up. With the first sentence, she gritted her teeth and said, "Even if I were dead, I would never yield to that surnamed Sun.

Okay.

As soon as Caixia saw that she had just regained her strength, she immediately spoke harshly and couldn't help but laugh or cry, "Even if you were willing, Lord Sun wouldn't want it! He refused the Madam's kindness at that time, saying that it was just a joke that couldn't be taken seriously. He said that A gentleman doesn't take advantage of others.

Upon hearing this, Qingwen finally calmed down.

She broke away from Caixia's support, straightened her waist again, and silently recited "Amitabha," but she suddenly wondered, "Jinchuan gets along well with me normally; how can she harm me for no reason?"

What's so hard to figure out?

Caixia snorted disdainfully and said, "Although Jinchuan was serving in the Madam's room, her heart had already flown to Second Master Bao. When you and Qingwen were almost kicked out years ago, you didn't know how happy she was behind your back and had been waiting to replace you.

Although that matter was suppressed, her desire to climb high was not suppressed.

At that moment, she saw that the Madam didn't like you and coincidentally took advantage of your shortcomings. Naturally, she wanted to take the opportunity to harm you so that she could also approach the Second Master Bao.

As Qingwen listened, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart.

The private affairs inside this big house were really unbearable. Jinchuan used to look at her kindly, but now she didnt hesitate to stab her in the back just to get closer to Second Master Bao!

And Madam Wang, who usually looked kind, didnt even ask a question and wanted to push herself into the fire pit.

Although Lord Sun looked a bit crude, he was kind-hearted in his heart. Otherwise, if he had gone along with the words, she might have been in a disaster this time.

Sigh~

At this moment, Caixia let out a faint sigh and said, "In the future, please try to temper yourself a little.

In our current position, when the Master gives face, it's easy to say anything. If the Master doesn't appreciate it, a wrong word can make you doomed forever.

You mean that

Qingwen nodded, thinking to herself that while others might be like this, Baoyu was not a sentimental and ungrateful person.

Just as several servant girls were intrigued and fighting with each other in the Yihong Courtyard, a farce was also playing in Wang Xifeng's room.

Pinger, Pinger! Where the hell are you?

As soon as Pinger went to instruct the kitchenette to cook some nourishing tonic, she heard Wang Xifeng shouting in her bedroom.

Although Pinger didn't know what was wrong, she still hurriedly arrived inside.

As soon as she entered the door, she saw the lotus spring tent wide open; inside and outside had already been turned upside down. Wang Xifeng was standing in front of the bed with her eyebrows arched and her waist crossed, her chest heaving violently, and she was lifting the purple tassels on her lapel high.

Ping'er was startled and quickly said, "Madam, what are you doing? You have just recovered. How can your bones withstand the twists and turns?

As she spoke, she helped Wang Xifeng back to bed.

Don't talk about the stick and hammer in the flower.

Wang Xifeng pushed her away and gritted two rows of silver teeth, saying, "Quick, where did I put the silver at home?

Since last year's audit, when Wang Xifeng was forced to use most of her savings to fill the gap, she has increasingly valued this external item.

Just as she had just recovered from a serious illness and the family was not yet tidied up, she remembered the silver she had placed in the inner room. She always felt uneasy if she didn't take a glance at it.

Who would have thought it would be so badthree thousand taels of silver and ten taels of gold, all of which disappeared without a trace!

When Ping'er saw her staring at the triangular red phoenix eyes with a posture that was about to eat people, how would she dare to neglect even a penny?

She hurriedly shouted injustice, I have been standing by your side since you fell ill; I have never once touched your money.

So you mean...

Wang Xifeng didn't think that Ping'er had such courage. At this moment, upon hearing about her discrimination, she immediately believed 80%.

So she turned all her anger towards the biggest suspect, stomped her foot heavily, and said with hatred, "Hurry up and call that dirty and unfaithful person to me. I'm not dead here, yet he's thinking about my private savings.

Ping'er naturally knew who she was talking about, so she had to go out and call for the Master.

Who knew that just as she was stepping outside, someone in the living room replied, "What are you shouting about? I'm here.

With that voice coming in, who else could it be but Jia Lian?

She saw him holding a mahogany box in his hand and reluctantly explaining, "You've been crazy these past few days. If I don't put away the silver, wouldn't it be a bargain for outsiders?

Wang Xifeng saw the wooden box and didnt care what he said.

She pounced and grabbed the wooden box in his hand. She neatly lifted the lid and flipped it over, and then her eyebrows stood up again. She stared at Jia Lian and asked in a deep voice, "Why are there eight gold ingots missing from here?

Is there any need to ask?

Jia Lian innocently spread his hand and said, "For your illness, how many people and things have been alarmed? What kind of thing is there that money cant be used?

What kind of bullshit are you talking about?

However, Wang Xifeng was even more annoyed and slammed the wooden box heavily onto the bed, thrusting her chest and scolding, "I have already asked Ping'er. This treatment is all shared from the public account; where is there a need for my private money to be used?

Look at you, you're in a hurry again, aren't you? What she said was the big expenses, and what I'm using is for the small expenses.

Jia Lian muttered and talked about many trivial accounts.

But Wang Xifeng has been in charge of the accounts of Rongguo Mansion for many years, and she obviously knew which expenses needed to be incurred and which expenses were falsely reported. How could he deceive her?

Mustering up her unforgettable glib teeth, she tore them apart one by one, while also condemning Jia Lian for being inferior to a dog's excrement.

How is this considered your private savings?

After a series of ups and downs, Jia Lian finally became angry with embarrassment and choked, shouting, "To extort some taels from our house, you always calculate the expenses all day long. How dare you say that these were your private savings? Where do you get the face to say that?

You... You

Wang Xifeng leaned back in anger and pointed to the door, shouting, "Get out of here!

Sure! This place was where you got crazy, even if you beg me, I wont stay!" Jia Lian was so firm this time that he didn't look back and left the hall without another word.

Seeing him walk without hesitation, Wang Xifeng felt even more sorrowful as her plump body tilted towards the bed as she burst into tears.
