[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life
Chapter 138 What kind of life are you living?
"Wuwuwu... It's all my fault! If it weren't for me, the master and the mistress wouldn't have fought! If the master and the mistress hadn't fought, the mistress wouldn't have fallen and hurt the baby in her belly. Wuwuwu... It's all my fault! Madam, please forgive me!"
A beautiful maid knelt outside the main room, crying and shouting at the top of her lungs. She seemed to be confessing, but in fact, every word she said was like a knife stabbing into Xiao Rong's heart.
Sure enough, soon a few maids and servants who couldn't stand it came up and spat at the maid, "Bah! You vixen, you still have the nerve to cry here? Not only did you seduce the master, but you also dared to instigate a fight between the master and the mistress!"
"Now that the madam is in trouble, who are you crying for here? Do you think people don't know what you are up to? Even at this time, you still want the master to favor you?"
"Shameless little whore! Don't you realize what has happened? Are you allowed to cry and make a fuss here? Get out of here now!"
Several people came up and pushed the beautiful maid while cursing, and someone took the opportunity to kick the beautiful maid twice.
The beautiful maid did not struggle, and let the men pull her hair, scratch her face, and kick her... She just kept crying, apologizing, and begging for forgiveness.
Looks miserable and pitiful.
This was the scene Rong Enqing saw when he walked in.
"Stop! What are you doing?"
Rong Enqing frowned and yelled subconsciously.
However, the crying and cursing of those people were so loud and noisy that they didn't notice Rong Enqing's arrival at all, nor did they hear Rong Enqing's shouts. They had no intention of stopping at all.
Rong Enqing winked at Xiu Zhang, who understood and stepped forward, pulling away the maids and old women who were beating the man one by one.
Several people were pulled apart, unwilling to give up. They were about to ask who Xiu Zhang was and why he was meddling in other people's business, when someone saw Rong Enqing, whose face was filled with frost. Their knees immediately went weak and they fell to the ground.
"Madam!?"
The one who shouted was the old woman in her forties. Rong Enqing recognized her. She was the one who came with Xiao Rong from the Rong family as a dowry. Her surname was Zhang.
Seeing Rong Enqing, Mrs. Zhang was surprised and delighted. She knelt down in front of Rong Enqing, kowtowed heavily, and said with red eyes: "Madam, you are finally here! You must make the decision for the Fourth Madam! She has suffered a lot this time!"
When the others saw what Mrs. Zhang did, they also knelt down and kowtowed to Rong Enqing.
"What's going on?" Rong Enqing looked at Mrs. Zhang.
Mrs. Zhang quickly pointed at the beautiful maid behind her and said angrily, "It was all caused by that maid! Madam, you don't know how much the Fourth Madam has suffered at the hands of this maid since she moved out of the Marquis's Mansion! You must stand up for the Fourth Madam!"
Rong Enqing was speechless. He had been talking for a long time but still hadn't gotten to the point.
Moreover, with Xiao Rong's temper of being aggressive towards everyone and her mother-in-law, how could she possibly suffer any loss?
What's more, what she just saw was a group of people led by Mrs. Zhang beating up the maid! The maid had no ability to fight back!
Seeing Rong Enqing's disbelief, Mrs. Zhang was about to say something when she saw the beautiful maid had stood up and walked to Rong Enqing with a staggering gait. She knelt down with difficulty, kowtowed, and said in a trembling voice: "Madam, the fourth wife's miscarriage is all my fault!
"If I hadn't entered the room without permission to remind the Second Miss to take medicine, the Fourth Madam wouldn't have been so angry and punished me. The Fourth Master wouldn't have quarreled with the Fourth Madam over me, and ended up hurting the baby in the Fourth Madam's belly! This is all my fault! Please punish me, Madam!"
Compared with Mrs. Zhang's complaint which had no substance, this girl's words were much more organized and interesting.
From the maid's words, she heard the cause, process and outcome of the incident, as well as the maid's self-blame and guilt.
However, these are just appearances.
When Rong Enqing saw the maid's familiar yet unfamiliar pretty face, she understood everything.
Although the maid's words seemed to be an admission of fault, in fact she was telling her clearly that she was innocent. She was just kindly reminding Yunying to take medicine, but Xiao Rong got crazy and refused to give in, which led to the trouble.
"Xiao Huan, huh?"
Rong Enqing looked at the beautiful maid expressionlessly, "I remember that I once warned you to remember to be grateful and not to let down the kindness shown to you by the Fourth Madam."
The beautiful maid Xiaohuan trembled, and then said with a wronged look: "The Madam's instructions, I have never forgotten. It is the Fourth Madam who is too suspicious..."
"Shut up!" Rong Enqing interrupted Xiaohuan's defense with a harsh voice and pointed at Xiu Zhang who was standing beside him. Xiu Zhang nodded, walked up and slapped Xiaohuan twice.
"Madam, why did you hit me? I didn't do anything to offend the Fourth Madam, nor did I break my promise to you. I am really wronged!"
Xiaohuan looked at Rong Enqing in confusion, tears falling from her eyes.
Unfortunately, Rong Enqing didn't fall for her trick.
When the Marquis' Mansion held a flower banquet before, Yunhai and his wife had a fight over this maid and were unable to go over to help.
Now, Xiao Rong had a miscarriage because of this maid.
Once is a coincidence, twice is also a coincidence?
Due to Yunhai and Xiaorong's personalities, their lives would not be peaceful after the separation. They would quarrel and fight. Rong Enqing had already anticipated it, but he could also turn a blind eye and pretend not to know.
But the premise is that they did it themselves and made a fuss about it.
If anyone tried to cause trouble between them, she would never tolerate it.
"Okay, stop crying. Your tricks won't work on me."
Having said that, he turned around and was about to go into the house.
When Mrs. Zhang and others saw this, they immediately stood up and followed.
Unexpectedly, Rong Enqing turned around and ordered in a cold voice: "Kneel here."
After saying that, he put his hand on Xiu Zhang's arm and walked into the house.
In the room, Xiao Rong was lying on the bed with a pale face and eyes closed, as if she was asleep.
Yunhai sat on the edge of the bed, holding Xiaorong's hand, his eyes were red and empty, and he looked dazed and absent-minded.
Rong Enqing walked behind him and he didn't even notice.
"Yunhai?" Rong Enqing stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Yunhai's shoulder.
After a long while, Yunhai turned his head blankly. The moment he saw that the person coming was Rong Enqing, he burst into tears, let go of Xiao Rong's hand, turned around and hugged Rong Enqing's waist.
A cry filled with grievance, depression, sadness, self-blame and many other emotions came out of his mouth: "Mother!"
He had never felt so helpless as he did now, and he had never realized so clearly how important Rong Enqing was in his life.
Looking at Yunhai, who was much thinner than when she came here, Rong Enqing felt extremely complicated.
Although Yun Hai was good for nothing and could only cry, she could still praise him as handsome and a young man who was pleasing to the eyes.
But what about now? She is still useless. She cries all the time. She has lost her only advantage of being pleasing to the eyes!
Looking at Yun Hai, who was as thin as a monkey, Rong Enqing really wanted to ask, what kind of life had he been living in the past few months?
