The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily

Chapter 303 Blood Splattered in the Funeral Hall

"Qin Tang? Why are you here?!"

Lu Yitong was startled when he saw Xiao Qintang suddenly appear.

When his collar was grabbed, he felt a tightness in his heart when he saw Xiao Qintang's distraught look with a big belly. He hurriedly supported Xiao Qintang and whispered to comfort her, "Qintang, don't let your imagination run wild. I was just joking with Lord Xu. Nothing happened to your brother and your mother. They are all fine, all fine..."

"you!"

Xiao Qintang's breathing was rapid and his steps were staggering.

She didn't dare not believe Lu Yitong, nor did she dare to believe Lu Yitong again. At this point, she only dared to believe her own eyes.

"Hug the moon!"

Xiao Qintang suddenly shouted "Baoyue".

She was at a loss, tightly grasping Baoyue's arm, her eyes sparkling, and she pleaded with Baoyue forcefully, "Come on, Baoyue, let's go home, let's go home right now!

I have to go home and see for myself what’s going on…”

"Ah."

Knowing that the truth could no longer be concealed, Baoyue nodded with tears in her eyes, and reluctantly helped Xiao Qintang get on the carriage...

"Qin Tang!"

Seeing Xiao Qintang leaving in a carriage, Lu Yitong was extremely anxious. He hurried to the stables and asked the constable to ask for leave for him. Then he rode his horse and quickly chased after Xiao Qintang in the direction of the general's mansion...

At the same time, the general's mansion was in mourning.

Although Xiao Chongjing has been reinstated and promoted, Xiao Qinyu's suicide out of fear of crime is not glorious, and Old Lady Xi has been in Puyu Mountain for many years and has few friends. In addition, she is worried that the Hua family will be unhappy...

Therefore, not many people were willing to come and pay their respects at this funeral.

Yesterday, Ruan Yunluo received a few guests sporadically throughout the day. Today, she knelt in the mourning hall for the whole morning, but did not receive a single guest.

Just now, during lunch break, Ruan Yunluo, with Tian Shuangshuang's support, was about to take some time to go back to the garden to rest, drink a cup of tea and relax...

But halfway through the journey, we arrived at Zuixueting.

Under the fiery maple tree next to the pavilion, she saw Nanny Wan and another unfamiliar old woman standing there. The atmosphere between the two was bad, and it seemed that they were arguing about something.

"That is……"

Ruan Yunluo stopped curiously.

She looked at the unfamiliar woman and felt strange, so she asked Tian Shuangshuang beside her, "Who is that? Is she from the mansion? Why have I never seen her before?"

"It's no wonder you haven't seen it..."

Following Ruan Yunluo's gaze, Tian Shuangshuang also looked up at the midwife, and hurriedly explained with a smile, "Madam, that was the midwife that the Xiao family hired for Yin Xiaorou after you left the General's Mansion.

She had been staying at the Xiao family to wait for Yin Xiaorou to give birth. But now Yin Xiaorou had returned from outside with the baby in her arms, and she had nothing to do, so it was not appropriate for her to continue staying in the mansion and eating for free.

So she found another midwifery job in another mansion, and she was about to leave the Xiao family..."

"It's a normal thing, why are you arguing?"

After listening to Tian Shuangshuang's story, Ruan Yunluo felt more and more strange.

Glancing at Tian Shuangshuang with amusement, she whispered jokingly, "What's the matter? Did your mother deduct her wages because she thought she didn't work?"

"lady……"

Hearing that Ruan Yunluo was teasing her, Tian Shuangshuang hugged Ruan Yunluo's arm and shook it.

Only when Ruan Yunluo couldn't hold back her laughter did she explain aggrievedly, "My mother didn't deduct the money from Mrs. Zhang. On the contrary, considering that Mrs. Zhang's family was in financial difficulty, my mother not only gave her the wages for the past two months, but also made an exception and gave her half of the reward for delivering the baby.

You know, she has done nothing in the past month since she came to the mansion, so she got all this for nothing..."

"Well, what did that old lady Zhang say?"

"She said... she said that although she didn't deliver the baby, it wasn't her fault. She had been waiting in the mansion for nearly two months, and all her time was wasted here. If she had spent the same amount of time at other people's homes, she would have received the reward money as well.

She said that it was the mansion’s business whether the mansion needed her or not, but since the mansion had hired her and used her time, she should not lose a cent of what she deserved…”

"Well, that makes sense."

Ruan Yunluo smiled, "What did your mother say?"

"My mother?"

Tian Shuangshuang tilted her head and thought about it, then sighed helplessly, "Alas, that old lady Zhang lost her son two years ago, and now she and her wife are raising their mentally retarded daughter and sick grandson, so their family is really in trouble.

But my mother has made all the exceptions she can within her ability. If I give you more, it will not only bother you, but also easily make the other maids feel uncomfortable..."

At this point, Tian Shuangshuang smiled and patted Ruan Yunluo's shoulders, and explained in a low voice: "Madam, you have been busy enough with the funeral these two days, and my mother doesn't want to make you tired again with these things.

Besides, the midwife didn't do anything in the first place.

She has been eating and drinking for free in the mansion for a month or two. In addition to her wages, it is already a great favor to give her half of the reward money..."

"Ugh……"

After hearing the whole story, Ruan Yunluo sighed and patted the back of Tian Shuangshuang's hand, "Okay, it's only half of the reward money, let your mother give it to her directly."

"As for the other maids and servants..."

Ruan Yunluo thought for a moment, then smiled and instructed, "Recently, everyone in the mansion has worked very hard because of the funeral. Regardless of whether they are maids or guards, give them all a reward.

Anyway, the money used is from the public treasury, and it is all Xiao Chongjing's money, so there is no need for us to save money for him."

"Yes."

Tian Shuangshuang nodded heavily, and hurried to Nanny Wan to convey all the words.

After hearing this, Nanny Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

Smiling and bowing to Ruan Yunluo, she looked helplessly at Mrs. Zhang, "Okay, since Madam has shown mercy, let's make an exception today..."

She took out a wooden slip from her sleeve and handed it to Mrs. Zhang. She smiled and said, "Take the slip and go directly to the public office to get the money."

"This……"

Mrs. Zhang was arguing with reason, but when she saw that Nanny Wan suddenly changed her attitude, she felt like she had hit cotton and became uncomfortable.

After taking the note and thanking Nanny Wan.

Under the guidance of Nanny Wan, she clenched her hands and came to Ruan Yunluo with some embarrassment, lowered her head and said awkwardly: "Madam, my family is really in financial difficulty, so... Thank you, Madam..."

"No problem."

Smiling and nodding, Ruan Yunluo was about to leave.

At this time, a hurried sound of footsteps sounded behind her, and a little maid guarding the mourning hall quickly chased after her and reported to Ruan Yunluo anxiously, "Madam, the third young lady is back and is now in the mourning hall..."

"what?"

Ruan Yunluo was surprised.

Wondering why Lu Yitong told Xiao Qintang about this, she was about to go over to check... but after taking two steps, she seemed to have thought of something and suddenly looked at Mrs. Zhang, "You can come too."

"oh oh……"

Mrs. Zhang didn't understand what was going on, so she quickly followed.

A group of people hurriedly rushed to the mourning hall...

At the same time, in the mourning hall.

Xiao Qintang stood in front of the altar, staring blankly at the spirit tablets of Old Madam Xi and Xiao Qinyu. Suddenly, she felt that everything around her seemed to be moving away from her at this moment...

Just when she was in a trance and thought this was a dream and wanted to fall asleep... she suddenly felt a pain in her stomach and stumbled to her knees beside the altar...

"Bang-bang-"

He accidentally knocked the tablets of Madam Xi and Xiao Qinyu on the altar to the ground...
