"Miss, just tell me if what I said is right or not. I was the one who brought up the second young lady, and I know her character and personality best!" Mrs. Zhang grabbed Nian Susu's sleeve, lowered her voice, and smiled cunningly, "If you, Miss, want to teach the second young lady a lesson, I have plenty of ways." She winked.

There is something in this.

Nian Susu thought of Mrs. Zhang's behavior when she first came in. Combined with the current hints, this old woman couldn't be thinking of changing jobs.

She doesn't want a dog slave who stabbed her former master in the back, maybe he will turn around and sell her out.

Nian Susu slapped the wrinkled, black and dirty hand away in disgust.

"Mrs. Zhang, your job is to serve the Second Young Miss well. If Dad knew that you slandered Sister Qiao Yue behind her back and tried to sow discord between us sisters, do you think Dad would beat you with 20 boards and then kick you out of the Prime Minister's Mansion?"

Mrs. Zhang didn't dare to speak. She withdrew her hand tremblingly, and hunched her back like a turtle.

Mrs. Zhang is not an easy person to deal with. Today it is Nian Susu, tomorrow it could be Yang Yuerong, or someone else. The best way is to scare her and make her follow Nian Qiaoyue obediently. It just so happens that Nian Qiaoyue is sensitive, inferior and self-righteous, so she needs a rough person like Mrs. Zhang to curb her arrogance.

When Nian Susu left, Mrs. Zhang didn't dare to follow him, which made life hard for Nian Qiaoyue. She was still lying in bed, needing help with her eating, drinking, defecating and urinating, and she also had to look at Mrs. Zhang's mood.

Although Nian Qiaoyue looked frail, her injury healed well and she was able to walk after only eight days of recuperation.

Nian Susu was shocked at her recovery speed, and was even more shocked that Nian Qiaoyue couldn't wait to cause trouble right after she recovered from her injury.

I think he is testing Nian Susu's attitude.

She said that day that as long as it didn't cross the bottom line, she would help clean up the mess, so Nian Qiaoyue was verifying the truth of her words.

Nian Susu couldn't rest for a moment. Just as she finished a task, the system reminded her that Nian Qiaoyue was in trouble again.

After three days, her performance increased rapidly and her total experience points accumulated to 285 points.

Nian Qiaoyue had finally worked herself to exhaustion and was just about to have a good sleep when Tayali came to see her.

The entire prime minister's residence was in a state of emergency.

Tayali walked in front in a hurry, while Nian Chengyun and Yang Yuerong followed behind with a group of maids and guards. No one dared to ask or stop them.

The princess said she wanted to find Miss Nian, so they had to send someone to lead the way.

A group of people rushed into the east wing, scaring Zhihua.

Nian Chengyun winked and said, "Where's Lingling? Call her out quickly."

Tayari recognized Zhihua and pulled her out from behind Nian Chengyun, smiling and asking her, "Where is Miss Nian? I want to go out and play, and ask her to come along."

Tayari was only a girl of eighteen or nineteen, about the same height as Zhihua. Her words were blunt but without malice, and they did not sound like orders. Instead, they looked cute with her chubby face.

Zhihua glanced at Nian Chengyun, who winked at her to call for help. Then she turned around and ran to Nian Susu's house.

It was such a big fuss that Mrs. Zhang got wind of the news and whispered it to Qiao Yue last year.

"The princess of Xishi country has gone to find Nian Susu. Why aren't you worried, Miss?" Mrs. Zhang was so anxious that she turned around and around. "Nian Susu is a vixen. It's not enough for her to seduce men, she also wants to seduce women. She's popular with both men and women! She's a disgrace to public morals!"

Nian Qiaoyue put down her pattern. She was going to embroider a purse for Qin Fengtian. She had already chosen the fabric, and all that was left was to choose a pattern. Before she had even taken a second look at the pattern, Mrs. Zhang came back in a hurry to report the news, ruining her good mood.

"Mrs. Zhang, what's the use of being anxious? Can I stop the princess from going to find her?"

Mother Zhang cried out "Aiya", pointed at her and began to say, "You can't stop me, so at least go and have a look! If you really can't, pull the princess out and say that Nian Susu is not feeling well. This is your chance to show off! Serve the princess well, and the emperor will definitely reward you!"

Nian Qiaoyue was fed up with what she heard, so she grabbed the embroidery frame and threw it on the table. "That's enough! I get it. You keep nagging me all the time, and I'm tired of hearing you!"

Mrs. Zhang was dissatisfied and wanted to refute.

"You are a servant, do you want to teach the master how to do things?" Nian Qiaoyue's face turned cold and glared at her.

Mrs. Zhang didn't expect Nian Qiaoyue to speak to her in this tone. Her breath was stuck in her chest, her chest rose and fell, and her face turned red.

"Since you came to work in the mansion with my mother and you took care of her personally after she became pregnant, I will call you Mrs. Zhang." Nian Qiaoyue was also very angry. She had had enough of Mrs. Zhang always lecturing without distinguishing between high and low. Today, she was going to make things clear to her!

Mrs. Zhang knew she was in the wrong, so she lowered her head and said nothing.

"But what about you? Do you take me, the second young lady, seriously? Or do you think I'm just a concubine who is not worthy of being on the stage, just like them?"

Nian Qiaoyue deliberately spoke out what was in Mrs. Zhang's mind so that she would know that she was not the weak and helpless Second Miss who was bullied by others.

"Oh my Second Young Lady!" Mrs. Zhang knelt down in front of her, crying, "You really misunderstood me! I always thought of you as the distinguished Second Young Lady of the Xiangfu! I tried to find out information for you and to protect you from those two people in the East and North Wings, but in the end, I was called a heartless person!"

Her crying was very long, but not a single tear fell on her face. She was like a professional mourner hired for a funeral, who bowed and cried every time.

Nian Qiaoyue looked at her coldly, smiled sarcastically, then changed to a gentle expression, stretched out her hand to help her up, "Mrs. Zhang, look at what you said, I was just angry, how could I doubt your sincerity towards me? I remember all the kindness you have shown me."

Mrs. Zhang wiped her old face and stopped crying, "Second Miss, please stop saying those unpleasant things. You almost scared me to death."

If Nian Qiaoyue really reported her story to Nian Chengyun, that old-fashioned man who always attached great importance to rules and reputation would definitely give her a beating.

Mrs. Zhang was really sweating.

"No, no, no." Nian Qiaoyue smiled sweetly, "I know that Mrs. Zhang treats me as her master."

"Yes, yes, yes." Mrs. Zhang was sweating more than she shed tears when she cried.

After Nian Qiaoyue sent the people away, she could no longer sit still. She immediately packed up her things and hurried to the east wing, but everyone had already left. She caught the guard and asked him, only to find out that Nian Susu and the princess had gone to Yuanlai Restaurant for dinner half a quarter of an hour ago.

"Then...have the master and the mistress gone?" Nian Qiaoyue asked again.

The guard scratched his head, not understanding why she asked this, but answered honestly, "Only the eldest lady and the princess went. No one else went, and they didn't bring any attendants."

Nian Qiaoyue showed a smug smile, lifted her skirt and ran out of the house, heading towards Yuanlai Restaurant.
