[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life
Chapter 48: The Dispute between the Jiang and Song Families
As soon as Rong Enqing left, the nanny also left with Yun Ai. The only people left in the hall were Jiang, who looked troubled, and the old woman who had been following her.
The maid's surname was Liu. She was originally a servant of the Marquis's mansion. She entered the second house to serve in the early years. She was not valued at first. But after the second house was separated, she was assigned by Song to serve Jiang.
There were seven people who were brought out from the Marquis' Mansion with Jiang, including a maid, two senior maids, and four junior maids.
A few days after the mansion was separated, the maidservant beside Jiang made an excuse, saying that she was not feeling well and wanted to go to the farm with her son to live out her old age.
Jiang was unwilling to let her go, but the woman came to Yun Hao and begged her. Yun Hao, considering that she had served Jiang for many years and had always been loyal to her, showed her mercy and let her go.
A few days later, the two older maids also came to beg for mercy from their master, saying that they were too old and wanted to be released to marry.
Just like that, in less than half a month, all three people that Jiang needed left.
It was under such circumstances that Liu Pozi was assigned to serve as the housekeeping nanny to Jiang.
At first, Jiang still trusted Liu Pozi very much. After all, who doesn't like a servant like Liu Pozi who is humble, loves to laugh, and knows how to flatter people?
However, gradually, Jiang discovered that as long as the matter involved the Song family, Liu Po would advise her to be patient and would also instill in her a lot of words, such as the Song family was the boss of the mansion and Yun Hao had to rely on the Song family to get promoted and make money.
In short, she was telling her that Song must not be offended and should be worshipped like a bodhisattva. Jiang was disgusted, but she dared not get angry. After all, what Liu Po said was the truth.
But even though she knew this was the truth, after so many times, Jiang still felt upset. After all, she was the mother-in-law and Song was the daughter-in-law. How could a mother-in-law be afraid of her daughter-in-law?
Of course, a self-righteous person like Jiang would never have thought that she was just a concubine and had no right at all for Song to treat her as a proper mother-in-law.
Feeling aggrieved, Jiang began to dislike Mrs. Liu.
Later, Jiang discovered that Mrs. Liu was always meddling in her affairs and teaching her the rules from time to time.
When she was a concubine in the Marquis's mansion, she had never learned any rules. Now that she has been separated and her son is the head of the family, she has to learn rules instead?
Jiang was furious and could no longer bear it, so she slapped Liu Pozi several times and threatened to drive Liu Pozi away from her.
This incident caused a big stir at the time. It was considered the biggest incident that happened after the second branch of the family left the mansion.
The incident started when Jiang learned from Song that Zhang was severely humiliated when she returned to her parents' home. The next day, she ignored Liu Po's obstruction and ran to the Marquis's mansion to find Rong Enqing and add insult to injury. In the end, she was slapped by Rong Enqing and fled back to the mansion in a hurry.
Jiang had suffered a loss at the hands of Rong Enqing, and was already angry. Granny Liu took the opportunity to teach her the rules, saying that there were differences in status, Rong was the principal wife, and a lady with an imperial decree, and Jiang was not someone she could mess with. She also accused her of going to the Marquis's Mansion to stir up trouble and bring trouble to Yun Hao and Song.
Of course, Mrs. Liu's words were very tactful, but that was what she meant.
Jiang was so furious that she slapped Liu Po a few times and took her people to find Song, saying that she wanted to drive the woman away from her and sell her out.
Song was unwilling to comply. She immediately said that she could not make the decision on this matter and would wait until Yun Hao came back from the government office before making a decision. In short, she was unwilling to give a straight answer.
Jiang was so angry!
It was just a matter of selling a slave, but the Song family refused to give in.
When the Marquis's Mansion was divided, how many slaves did Rong Enqing sell at once? Who dared to say a word of objection?
Why is it so difficult to sell a slave to her?!
The more Jiang thought about it, the angrier she became. Coupled with Song's uncompromising attitude, Jiang was completely enraged.
Jiang immediately became furious and scolded both Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Song.
The Song family came from a noble family and had been accustomed to the drama of "smiling on the surface but stabbing behind the back" since childhood. Even if they did not get along with each other, they always maintained a false decency on the surface.
She had never seen anyone like Jiang pointing at her nose and scolding her.
Song was so angry that she cried, but she still refused to give in.
In the end, the matter was not resolved until Yun Hao came back in the evening.
Yun Hao originally thought that Jiang didn't like Granny Liu, so she should just change her. But when he saw Song crying because she was bullied by her own mother, he couldn't go against Song's wishes. What's more, he now had to rely on the Song family for everything.
Song was not a sharp-tongued person. Seeing Yunhao's hesitation, she told Yunhao about Liu Pozi's good words and tactfully persuaded Yunhao that Jiang's temper easily led to trouble, and she needed someone like Liu Pozi to advise her.
Anyway, Song refused to admit that they were targeting Jiang, and only said that everything was for the sake of the second house. Now they couldn't make any mistakes, and couldn't let anyone catch them and leave trouble for the future.
Yun Hao, like Song, still had his eyes on the title of Marquis, so he naturally understood that what Song said was for his own good. He immediately decided to keep Liu Pozi, and told her to advise Jiang boldly in the future. As long as it was good for the second house, he and Song would not blame her. He also gave Liu Pozi a reward of two taels of silver.
When Jiang heard the news, she was furious. When Yun Hao went to see her, she smashed things, jumped up and down, and scolded him.
Yun Hao was also a filial son, and he let her scold him for a long time without saying anything back. He waited until she was tired of scolding him, and then he persuaded her kindly to control her temper for the future.
She also said that if he could return to the Marquis' Mansion one day and become the Marquis, she would be the Marquis's biological mother! At that time, wouldn't Rong be at her mercy?
Only then did Jiang calm down.
Jiang originally wanted to drive Liu Po away, but Yun Hao resolutely kept her and said that he was the one who arranged Liu Po and asked her to persuade her.
Jiang had no choice but to keep Liu Pozi by her side. However, the initial trust also turned into all kinds of nitpicking and criticism.
Anyway, now Granny Liu can say whatever she wants, and if Jiang can listen, she will listen. If she can't listen, she will raise her hand and slap Granny Liu.
Perhaps she learned the pleasure of slapping people from Rong Enqing, and from Liu Pozi, whenever a servant bumped into her or did something she didn't like, she would raise her hand and slap them. Gradually, she actually developed a habit of beating people.
"Old lady, the mother and daughter Yunluo that the old lady just mentioned..."
As soon as Mrs. Liu opened her mouth, she was slapped in the face.
Jiang glared at Granny Liu and snorted, "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Also, you'd better keep your mouth shut in front of Song!"
