I was a housekeeper in ancient times

There were not many people in the big kitchen at that time. In addition to Feng Li's wife, there was A Ya who made the fire, Hong Caipo who picked vegetables, and Aunt Jiang who washed the jars.

After asking Feng Li's wife, Ding also interrogated these people one by one, and the answers she got were that Lin Weiqiao came first, and it was Lin Weiqiao who wanted to give the lotus seed soup to Hua Jie'er.

The scene suddenly became awkward. Ding did not expect it to be like this. When she saw Hua Jie'er coming back crying, complaining that the people in the first house bullied her, she was immediately furious.

After comforting Hua Jie'er, she immediately led people to find Yu Muyan to ask for an explanation, but who knew it would turn out like this.

Even so, she insisted, "Who knows if you guys colluded to give a good confession to bully my sister Hua. You think she's young and easy to bully, right?"

Mother Sun continued, "How could the second young lady lie? It's obviously because of you evil servants who are bullying the weak!"

Feng Li's wives were not from the second house, so the Ding family's master and servants dared to make such malicious speculations. It was just pitiful for Feng Li's wives and others, who had to take the blame even though they had done nothing.

Lin Weiqiao clenched her fists, and had the urge to blow up the whole world. She hated that there was no surveillance camera in the kitchen, otherwise she really wanted to throw the surveillance camera in Ding's face!

She said with a smile: "Then I wonder how the Second Madam wants to deal with it?"

Mrs. Ding snorted coldly, "Of course I have to apologize to my sister Hua. She has never been treated like this before. It was you, a bunch of slaves, who made her angry."

"The fault is mainly mine. I shouldn't have come to the kitchen to ask for snacks to entertain the guests. If you want to punish me, please punish me."

"Oh, you are brave enough to take responsibility for your actions. I am punishing you, you old slave!"

"But I am our Madam's companion after all. If the Second Madam wants to punish me, she has to ask our Madam's opinion first."

"No wonder you took the initiative to punish me. I thought your wife would protect you. Humph, I'm the housekeeper. I don't need to ask anyone else if I want to punish you."

Lin Weiqiao now has an urge to hit someone.

Mrs. Ding gave Mother Sun a wink, and Mother Sun immediately stepped forward and slapped her hard without hesitation. There was a loud "slap!"

She felt a burning pain on her face and was stunned for a moment. A fierce look flashed in her eyes. She touched her cheek, took a step forward, and slapped Mother Sun in the face with her backhand.

At this moment, everyone present was stunned. No one expected that she would be beaten, and no one expected that she would fight back, in front of Ding.

Mother Sun covered her face and came back to her senses after a while, "You, you hit me?"

Ding said in disbelief: "How dare you hit my people?"

She said calmly, "Second Madam attacked me without asking our Madam's opinion. I am our Madam's companion, and beating me is disrespectful of our Madam's dignity. Then I can also teach Sun Madam, this mean slave, a lesson without asking Second Madam's opinion."

"How dare you! What kind of logic is this? You made a mistake, but I can't teach you a lesson? You are relying on your wife's support, so you are even more reckless, committing crimes against your superiors, and disregarding hierarchy! If I don't punish you today, I won't be able to convince everyone!"

"Madam, please feel free to do as you please. I have done nothing wrong."

It's not that she didn't think about admitting her mistake, but when she did, Ding became even more demanding and insisted on putting the blame on her without any reason.

If you can't bear it, then you don't need to bear it anymore.

She just didn't believe it. Could Ding really beat her to death?

Just when Ding ordered her people to arrest her, Huan Jieer informed the news and called Yu Muyan and her sisters over.

It was originally a trivial matter, but Ding insisted on making a big fuss about it.

Before coming, Sister Huan had already explained the whole story. Yu Muyan came with a sullen face. She was soft-hearted and easy to manipulate, but she also had a bottom line and would not allow herself to be bullied.

She saw the slap mark on Lin Weiqiao's face at a glance, and immediately became furious.

She suppressed her anger and questioned, "Second sister-in-law is so arrogant. Not to mention that Madam Lin is my first-class companion, even if she is just a servant, Second sister-in-law shouldn't have hit her in front of so many people, not to mention that Madam Lin is not at fault. It's true that Second sister-in-law is the housekeeper, but she can't bend the law for personal gain and wrongly accuse a good person!"

Because the eldest wife's contribution to the public treasury was less than half, Ding Shi did not make any profit, and she had to find ways to make up for the deficits in various places, which accumulated a lot of resentment. In addition, there was no news about the succession, so she guessed that the eldest wife had secretly used some tricks.

These days, she has become increasingly dissatisfied with the first wife's house. When she heard that Hua Jie'er was bullied and cried by the people from the first wife's house, she suddenly exploded with anger. She no longer cared about anything else and directly brought people to hold her accountable.

She didn't expect that she was not in the right in this matter, but considering that the other party was just a concubine in the eldest wife's house, she just made an example of her to scare the monkeys and vent her anger.

But what she didn't expect was that Yu Muyan would go against her for a companion room.

She snorted coldly, "In my opinion, it's because the eldest sister-in-law spoils her subordinates too much, and they dare to commit crimes against their superiors. Huajie is the eldest daughter of our second branch, and she was bullied and cried by an old maid. If this gets out, they will think that there is no one in our second branch."

Yu Muliu couldn't stand it any longer and said unconvincedly, "Why do you and your daughter both like to confuse right and wrong? It was clearly Mother Lin who asked for a bowl of lotus seed soup to entertain me first, and then Sister Hua wanted it, so we gave it to her. Sister Hua was surprised, and we gave it to her, so you say we bullied her? Second Madam, you have the time to spare, why don't you go back and teach Sister Hua a lesson? She is so young, but she knows how to slander others."

Mrs. Ding was so angry that she staggered back a few steps. No one dared to say that to her sister Hua.

Since it was about her own people, Yu Muyan rarely gave in. "Second sister-in-law, I know best what kind of person Mother Lin is. No matter what the reason is, she will never bully Sister Hua."

Feng Li's wife was also upset. She was smeared for no reason. She stood up and said, "Madam, we can testify to this matter. Mother Lin did not bully the second young lady."

"Justice is in the heart of the people. Did you hear that, second brother and sister-in-law? I didn't know that the housekeeper could disregard the facts and slander others at will."

As they said that, the Yu Muyan sisters took Lin Weiqiao away, leaving Ding and the others behind.

Perhaps Ding had never taken Yu Muyan seriously before, so she was completely dumbfounded by this incident. She never expected that one day she would be defeated by Yu Muyan. In terms of momentum, she obviously lost.

After returning to Shuangxiyuan, Yu Muyan tried to comfort Lin Weiqiao. After all, Lin Weiqiao had been with her for many years and she had never scolded her. But today, she was slapped by the second wife. Needless to say, she felt very aggrieved and distressed.

Lin Weiqiao was angry, but she couldn't swallow this disgusting thought, but when Yu Muyan wanted to reward her with a pure gold ring, a silver silk bracelet, and some high-quality materials.

Her face didn't hurt so much anymore.
