Shengjing Noble

The Su Mansion's dining room.

As soon as the blood swallows came out of the pot, Nanny Song came in. She pointed at the stove and asked, "Didn't you say there were no more bird's nests in the kitchen? What is this? It's blood swallows again. You lowly slaves are really lining your own pockets. You are so bold!"

Master Liu, who was in charge of the kitchen, stepped forward and explained: "Madam, calm down. There is indeed no bird's nest in the kitchen of this mansion. These bowls of blood bird's nest are from Madam Lu's private storehouse. Madam Li will send someone to get them later..."

Before he could finish, Nanny Song interrupted him harshly.

"Bullshit! Our mistress doesn't even have bird's nest to drink. How can a lowly concubine like her eat blood bird's nest? Is she worthy of it?"

Master Liu was speechless: "This is not a question of whether it is suitable or not. This blood swallow belongs to Aunt Lu personally..."

"I don't care who it belongs to. In the Su family, they all belong to our master and mistress. Come on, take the blood swallow to the Pearl Pavilion."

At Nanny Song's command, the maids behind her rushed forward to grab the bird's nest.

Master Liu tried to stop them but was pushed to the ground. He could only watch them take away the bird's nest like robbers.

……

Broken Moon Pavilion.

Su Lanyin rubbed her brows and leaned back on the couch feeling a little tired. Just as she was about to ask why the bird's nest was not ready yet, she saw Cuizhu running in in a panic.

"Miss, something's wrong. Nanny Li asked Nanny Song from Mingzhu Pavilion to beat you up!"

"What?" She frowned, stood up and put down the medical book in her hand.

Cuizhu quickly explained the whole story.

It turned out that the bowls of blood bird's nest were taken away by Nanny Song from Mingzhu Pavilion. Nanny Li was so angry that she went to ask for them back, but was beaten.

Su Lanyin's face gradually darkened: "Where is Madam? Is she injured?"

"She was pushed to the ground and injured her waist. I have asked someone to help her back to her room to apply medicine, but the blood swallow was seized by Liu Ruyan!"

"They have hit a wall by trying to steal from me." Su Lanyin stood up, put on a fox fur cloak and walked out.

……

Pearl Pavilion.

Liu Ruyan tasted the top-quality blood swallow and felt extremely happy.

"This kind of good stuff can't be bought with money these days. Go give one bowl each to the young master and the young lady, and then give some to the old man. Oh, and give one bowl to the mother-in-law..."

She was making arrangements proudly when she was interrupted by a maid who walked in from outside.

"Madam, the Sixth Miss has brought people here."

"What is she here for?" Liu Ruyan looked at Nanny Song and asked the question even though she knew the answer.

"Madam, please take a rest. I will deal with her."

After saying this, Nanny Song came to the gate of Mingzhu Pavilion with the maids and servants in a threatening manner.

Su Lanyin had a slender figure and an upright posture. Her face was as calm as water, without any sign of anger. Instead, there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth.

"It's so late, what are you doing here, Sixth Miss?" Nanny Song crossed her arms and looked arrogant.

Cuizhu couldn't stand her behavior, so she stepped forward and scolded, "Why are you pretending? You stole our aunt's blood swallow and injured Li Mama. Do you think you can let it go? I tell you, the people of Suiyuexuan are not so easy to bully!"

Upon hearing this, Nanny Song laughed a few times, her eyes full of arrogance and pride.

"Haha... I thought Sixth Miss was here to apologize, but I didn't expect you to dare to question me. You are really brave!"

Su Lanyin curled her lips and asked in a cold voice: "What crime have we committed to ask for forgiveness?"

Nanny Song pointed at her and said, "You allowed this cunning slave to come to the mistress's courtyard and yell and question her. This is called insubordination!"

Cuizhu loudly retorted: "You are talking nonsense. It is obvious that you stole our things. What's wrong with Nanny Li coming to ask for them?"

"Your stuff?" Nanny Song sneered a few times, "This is the Su family, everything belongs to the master and the mistress, even Aunt Lu is a concubine of the Su family! It's just a few bowls of blood swallows, my wife can drink it if she wants, what can you do?"

"you……"

Cuizhu wanted to scold her but was stopped by Su Lanyin.

"Girl, this slave is going too far!"

The little girl was young after all, and she was so angry that her face turned red and her neck became thick, and she wanted to hit someone.

Su Lanyin smiled faintly and didn't care. She took a step forward and raised her voice and asked, "So, you admit that you took the blood swallow from Suiyuexuan and injured Li Mama?"

Nanny Song raised her chin and said confidently, "Why shouldn't I admit it? I was the one who gave the blood swallow to Madam, and I was the one who injured Nanny Li for committing treason. What can you do to me?"

Seeing her so arrogant, Su Lanyin nodded with satisfaction: "Very good."

Seeing her like this, Nanny Song found it a little funny: "Oh, Sixth Miss, could it be that she has become stupid because of anger?"

Cuizhu snorted coldly: "It's not certain who is stupid, you will cry later!"

"Really? I'm so scared, hahaha..." Nanny Song couldn't help laughing.

Su Lanyin turned around and looked at the corner: "The prisoner confessed his crime himself. Did you hear it clearly, sir?"

After the words fell, the scene was silent. Even Nanny Song shut her mouth, her eyes full of confusion.

At the corner, a pair of official boots stepped out first, followed by a tall and burly man, who was Liang Youdao.

A group of officers followed behind him. Without saying a word, they went straight up to Nanny Song, pinned her to the ground and put handcuffs on her.

"What are you doing? Let me go, let me go..."

The sound of Nanny Song's struggle forced Liu Ruyan out. Seeing this scene, she remained calm and maintained her dignity and elegance.

"It's so late, why are you making such a fuss? Lan Yin, why don't you tell them to let go of Nanny Song? How can you put the dignity of our Su family at risk by doing this?"

This accusation made Su Lanyin raise her eyebrows slightly, with mockery in her eyes.

"If the Madam was really respectable, why would she steal my mother's blood swallows? Why didn't the Marquis's Mansion give you a dowry? Did you become so poor that you had to steal the concubines' food?"

She didn't give any face to outsiders.

Liu Ruyan's face turned pale in an instant. She gritted her teeth to maintain her dignified demeanor, but she couldn't say anything to refute.

After all, the sweet taste of bird's nest soup still lingered in her mouth.

Although Nanny Song was being held, she saw her master was speechless and aggrieved, so she immediately shouted, "You are talking nonsense. My wife is the mistress. Not to mention a few bowls of blood swallows, she can even decide the life and death of Aunt Lu at will. What right do you have to accuse my wife of stealing...ah!"

Before she could finish her words, a slap was slapped hard on her old face.

It's green bamboo.

She rubbed her numb palms and said indignantly, "You are talking nonsense. Aunt Lu was the legitimate wife in the past. After the first lady came into the mansion, she voluntarily gave up the position of mistress."

"You can certainly take advantage of my concubines because they have a contract to sell themselves, but my aunt is a free woman, so she should be a co-wife. Not only did you steal her things, but you also hurt her. You are so despicable and shameless, and extremely disgusting. Pah!"

She spat fiercely in Nanny Song's face, her nostrils turned up as if she had finally vented her anger.
