Koi baby helps his mother farm and becomes the richest man
Chapter 142 Making progress
The guards had taken a few steps, but upon hearing this, they silently retreated.
"You!" Madam Hu raised her finger and pointed at Qin Ying angrily, saying, "Where did you come from, you shrew! How dare you dictate to our family affairs?"
Zhou Qi mustered up great courage, stepped forward to block Qin Ying behind her, and walked towards Madam Hu, "Madam Hu, is what my sister Qin said wrong? My second sister and I are here, how can you, a servant, give orders to the guards at home?
"Grandfather is willing to honor you. You are a respectable nanny, but this does not mean that you can ride on our sisters' heads!"
"Miss!" Madam Hu cried out, "How dare this old slave do that! Heaven and earth are witnesses! I wish I could hold these two young ladies on my head as idols. How dare I break the rules!"
"Oh?" Zhou Mianyi said loudly beside Qin Ying, "Weren't you the one who cursed and ordered others to hit each other just now?
"If you had any regard for us sisters, how could you do such a thing? You wouldn't act like that in front of Grandfather!
"Or, after following Grandfather for so long, you've started to think of yourself as the master, and no longer need to take us, the legitimate young masters of the Marquisate, seriously?"
Madam Hu's face turned pale, and she quickly squatted down, "I dare not! I just..."
"Not to mention grandfather, even His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince wouldn't belittle someone who helped his relatives. Or do you think you are more noble than grandfather and His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince?"
Zhou Qi's tone was aggressive, but her face was actually cold, and her hands, tightly clenched in her sleeves, were shaking slightly.
Aunt Hu quickly knelt down. She couldn't afford to wear such a big hat!
"Miss, calm down! I dare not! I dare not!"
When Matron Hu knelt, the maids and servants, led by her, also knelt down one after another.
Zhou Qi turned to look at the guards: "Who is the leader?"
The leader of the guards immediately stepped forward and bowed, "My subordinate Feng Gang greets the young lady."
"Grandfather must have given you some instructions when you came here," Zhou Qi nodded slightly at him. "Did Grandfather ever tell you to take us back by force?"
Feng Gang answered succinctly, "No. The old man simply said that if the two young ladies grew tired of living here, they could return and take a look; if they felt comfortable living here, they could stay a little longer; and if the young ladies wanted to leave but were too embarrassed to say so, he would have his subordinates mention it to the eldest master."
Zhou Qi glanced at Qin Ying quietly, meeting her encouraging gaze. She immediately felt filled with courage and turned to look at Matron Hu: "Why is what Guard Feng said so different from what Matron Hu said? Matron, did Guard Feng lie?"
Madam Hu secretly resented it, but dared not deny it, so she could only apologize again: "Guard Feng did not lie. It's just that I have served the old master for a long time, and I know that the old master really hopes that the two young ladies can return. I am just afraid that the two young ladies will be embarrassed..."
"Grandfather has always loved us," Zhou Qi's face turned even colder. "He never dared to speak loudly to us. You've served Grandfather for so long, why don't you even know this? As soon as you came here, you started yelling and even put on airs in front of us sisters?!"
Madam Hu wanted to complain, but Zhou Qi waved her hand and said, "Guard Feng, take care of this servant who is bullying his master!"
Feng Gang responded and raised his hand. Two guards immediately stepped forward and without waiting for orders, they gagged Madam Hu, tied her hands behind her back, and threw her at the foot of the wall.
Zhou Qi looked at the maids and servants kneeling on the ground and said, "All of you, please leave. We naturally don't dare to use people who follow Madam Hu's orders."
These people were already frightened by Zhou Qi and did not dare to beg for mercy. They kowtowed hurriedly, stood up and filed out.
Zhou Qi then said to Feng Gang, "Guard Feng, my eldest brother's temporary residence is next door. He should have someone staying with him. Go over there and have them arrange for a place to stay and rest. Allow us sisters to write a letter to our grandfather."
Feng Gang bowed and retreated with his men.
Zhou Qi's strong breath gave way, and her body began to stagger. Qin Ying hurried forward to support her and said softly, "Let's talk inside."
After entering the room, Zhou Mian's eyes lit up with admiration and excitement. He hugged his sister's arm and shook it continuously: "Sister, you are so great!"
Zhou Qi looked at Qin Ying eagerly. Qin Ying poured her a cup of warm water and put it in her hand, smiling and saying, "Yes, you are great!"
Zhou Qi's performance was simply amazing. She was indeed worthy of being a daughter raised in a wealthy family. Even though she had suffered hardships, her dignity was still there.
Zhou Qi exhaled and leaned softly against her sister, "I... I'm actually just holding on..."
"Oh, that's already amazing!" Aunt Zhao laughed, "I was stunned when I heard it!
"Oh, that old woman... she's so stylish, much better than the rich women I've seen before. I thought she was someone else!
"It turns out it's just a rat's shit! With someone like this messing around, it's only a matter of time before something bad happens!"
Zhou Qi slowly finished a glass of water and cheered up, "Yes, Auntie is right!"
Zhou Mian muttered, "Why would Grandfather keep someone like this around?"
Zhou Qi looked at her sister lovingly, "Maybe it's because Grandpa doesn't have many old friends left. I remember when I was little, this old woman was just responsible for sweeping the floor in Grandma's yard.
"Such a person is not enough to destroy the relationship between us grandparents and grandchildren."
Qin Ying took the empty cup and asked, "Do you still need to write a letter home?"
"Write!" Zhou Qi took a deep breath. "Grandfather should know these things. He cherishes the old friendship, but he can't let people take advantage of the old friendship to do whatever they want.
"Today he can disrespect us in the name of grandfather, but who knows what outrageous things he will do in the future!
"No, perhaps she has already done it! Let Grandfather investigate these matters himself."
Qin Ying and Aunt Zhao helped to clean up the kang table, spread out the paper, prepared the pen and ink, then walked out and closed the door.
Zhao Hu came over and asked, "How is it?"
"It's okay," Qin Ying smiled and shook her head, "Just be careful not to let any onlookers get close."
"Don't worry, sister," Zhao Hu straightened his back, "I chased them all back! Besides, with those people around, no one dared to get close."
Feng Gang has already sent people to guard the Zhao family courtyard.
Aunt Zhao looked up at the sky. It was not worth going to the fields at this time, so she said she was going to cook. "Master Zhou and the others are not here, and now there are so many people. We can't just ignore the food. Let's make two more pots."
Zhao Hu snorted and glared at Madam Hu who was thrown against the wall. "I think, apart from those guards, we don't need to worry about anyone else. They don't want to eat our food!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Aunt Zhao also glanced at Madam Hu and said, "Whether others eat or not is their business, but whether we do it or not is our business.
"Just because others don't do human work, does that mean we can do the same?"
