[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

Seeing the miserable state of the old woman, the other two old women were so frightened that they fell to the ground, trembling.

"Why aren't you telling me yet?" Meixiang snorted coldly, looking at the two of them with a deadly look.

"It was Madam Wu! Madam Wu taught us to say these words. It was Madam Wu who gave us two taels of silver each and asked us to spread the word."

"It was Madam Wu who told us to say that! She said that Madam had never had a good day in all the years since she married into the Marquis's mansion. Now that she has finally gotten her wish, the Madam has forced Madam to give her a bastard from the second wife's house as her daughter. She said she felt it was not worth it for Madam."

The two dared not hide anything anymore and told everything at once.

As soon as these words came out, the face of the woman standing next to Zhang suddenly changed. She pointed at the two women and cursed them fiercely: "You bastards, you are so bold to spit bloody words at me! I will tear your mouths apart!"

While cursing, he pretended to rush up and fight the two men.

Without Rong Enqing's order, Meixiang shouted at the servants in a stern voice, "Quickly stop them."

Two servants stepped forward quickly, held Madam Wu's arms, one on the left and one on the right, and kicked her, making her kneel on the ground and unable to move.

Nanny Wu's face turned pale and she cursed angrily, "You bastard, let me go, let me go! Do you know who I am? I am Madam's wet nurse! I raised Madam with my own milk! How dare you do this to me?"

The servant didn't care about her. After hearing her scolding, he not only didn't let go, but increased the strength of his hands a little bit, and pressed Madam Wu's face directly to the bluestone ground.

Madam Wu was furious and struggled desperately, leaving a patch of fine scratches on her face from the bluestone floor. She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat and dared not struggle anymore. But she kept talking.

"Mei Xiang, you are such a bully, how dare you bully an old woman like me? Sooner or later, I will teach you a lesson!"

"Madam, Madam, please say something for me! I didn't do anything. It was those bastards who slandered me!"

"Madam, I am loyal to you and treat you like my own daughter. I am the only one in this mansion who truly cares about you!"

"Madam, please don't be silent! Tell these bastards to let me go! You are the lady in charge of the house! Are you going to just watch these bastards treat your wet nurse like this?"

There is nothing more to review at this point.

Meixiang stepped aside.

Rong Enqing sat on a chair, looking down at Nanny Wu, who still looked arrogant and fearless.

Yun Ye stared at Madam Wu with anger, watching her yelling and shouting. After a while, he looked at Zhang with red eyes.

Just like Aunt Wu said, she was my mother's wet nurse, my mother's concubine, and my mother's trusted housekeeper...

Are all the things that Aunt Wu did and said related to my mother? Could it be my mother who ordered it?

He didn't want to doubt his mother, but Nanny Wu was of such a status, and her words were full of dissatisfaction with her grandmother and disdain for Baishou Hall.

As if she felt Yun Ye's gaze, Zhang unconsciously sat up straight, but her whole body looked extremely stiff.

Rong Enqing looked sideways at Yun Ye, shook his head in disapproval, and said in a reproachful tone: "You shouldn't doubt your mother."

Yun Ye burst into tears instantly and couldn't help but whispered, "Grandma!"

This sound was full of gratitude and relief.

When my grandmother said this, did it mean that the matter had nothing to do with my mother?

Rong Enqing's words dispelled Yun Ye's concerns and also moved Zhang for a moment.

At this moment, Zhang, who had been silent all this time, finally spoke as if she had made some kind of decision.

She said, "Madam Wu, I will send someone to take you back to the Zhang family."

She had a blank expression on her face and spoke indifferently. The look she gave to Nanny Wu was also calm, as if she was looking at a stranger.

Nanny Wu looked at Zhang in disbelief and asked in horror, "Madam, what do you mean?"

Zhang stood up and said calmly, "Madame Wu spread rumors and caused trouble with ulterior motives. She spoke evil words and was disrespectful to the Madam. She was loyal to an outsider and was disloyal to her master. Drag her away and give her fifty lashes. Then send a few people to send her back to the Zhang family."

"Yes!" the servant responded and dragged Madam Wu out.

The old woman had been beaten with twenty sticks and was still lying on the ground, her life or death unknown.

If you really get beaten with fifty sticks, there is only one outcome, and that is death!

At this point, Nanny Wu finally had a horrified look. She stared at Zhang with wide eyes, horrified: "Madam, Madam, you can't do this to me! I do this for your own good! Madam, you can't deny my kindness!"

"Madam, have you forgotten what the old master said? The Marquis's Mansion has no future! This old servant did this to save your life!"

Zhang looked at Nanny Wu coldly, "You want to sow discord between me and the Marquis's Mansion for my own good? You want me to be hostile to the Madam Dowager for my own good? You want me to betray my own son for my own good?

"Can I give up my dignity, my conscience, everything, and become a beast worse than pigs and dogs just to stay alive?"

"Haha, Grandfather, you underestimate your granddaughter!"

Zhang didn't say the last sentence to Aunt Wu. Her voice was very low, and her eyes became empty, as if her faith had collapsed, and she was sad, lost, angry, and desperate.

Nanny Wu was dragged away.

Screams, the dull thud of sticks hitting bodies, and Madam Wu's desperate cries came through the wall.

Until, only the muffled sound of the stick remained.

Until the servant came in and reported that the person was dead.

Zhang fell back into her chair in a daze, tears streaming down her face.

She is twenty-eight years old this year, and Nanny Wu has been serving her for twenty-eight years.

Twenty-eight years of companionship, longer than the time her parents, Yunhong, Yunye, and anyone else have spent with her.

How could she not have feelings for Nanny Wu?

How could she not be sad when Nanny Wu was executed?

But she can't be soft-hearted!

She had promised the Madam that no matter what the situation was, no matter who was on the other side, she would unwaveringly choose Yun Ye! Choose Shun'an Marquis Mansion!

Therefore, she could only feel sorry for Nanny Wu, sorry for the Zhang family, and sorry for her grandfather who was still trying to pull her out of the quagmire of Shun'an Marquis Mansion!

She knew that Nanny Wu did all this to make her at odds with the Dowager Lady, to make her gradually become estranged and separated from the Shun'an Marquis' Mansion... until she was completely separated from it.

However, my grandfather had done the same thing when Yun Hong died eight years ago.

At that time, she had the opportunity to bring Yun Ye back to the Zhang family. But she did not follow her grandfather's wishes at that time. Moreover, now that Yun Ye is the Marquis of Shun'an and is in the center of the quagmire, how can she leave the Marquis' Mansion! ?

Therefore, in order to completely cut off her grandfather's thoughts, she had to show her attitude!

Sending Nanny Wu's body back to the Zhang family means she is determined to completely break off ties with the Zhang family!
