After rebirth, the Queen of Madness has gone against the will of Heaven
Chapter 28: Beat the dog to see its owner
As they walked out of the villa, a carriage had already been parked at the door. A middle-aged man stood politely beside the carriage. Upon seeing Yu Qingli and Mei Hong come out, the man hurried forward and said, "Miss Yu, the prince has ordered that you be taken safely to the palace."
Yu Qingli nodded and said softly, "Thank you!"
Then she took Meihong into the car. There was no need for her to refuse the kindness offered by someone. Moreover, she could just take it as Murong Yan's apology.
At this time, in the villa, Murong Yanhui was explaining things.
"Qingjiu, take good care of the young master and manage the villa while I'm away. I'll reward you handsomely when I come back!"
Qing Jiu rolled his eyes. Compared to taking care of this little ancestor, he would rather follow the prince and run errands as a waiter. After all, there is still some leisure time. But following this little ancestor... Oh! It's really hard to express! After all, the master has given the order?
Murong Yue, whose tears were stifled by a candied haws, heard that Murong Yan was going out and could not help but yelled, "Daddy, I want to go out too, take me with you."
It seemed that he had completely forgotten the crying he had done before. Children are so forgetful!
Murong Yanhui pinched Murong Yue's chubby little face and said, "Be good and wait at home. Daddy will help you tie Mom back!"
"Okay, okay! Yue'er wants her mother to be kidnapped back! Let's see if she still admits that she is Yue'er's mother?!"
Qingjiu sighed. Is this a plan for rape or something? "My Lord! You must remember your identity. We are not the Dai Wang from the bandit mountain!" But hadn't this little ancestor previously strongly stated that he would ignore Miss Yu? As expected, children's words are the least trustworthy!
Murong Yanhui finished his instructions and flew a hundred meters away. With a leap, he landed on a large tree beside the wall. From above, he saw a carriage not far away that had just left the villa gate and was galloping towards him. Five meters, four meters, three meters...
Yu Qingli only felt that something fell gently from the roof of the car, but fortunately it did not have much impact. Little did she know that at this time, a tall and handsome figure had appeared on the roof of the car, and he seemed to be escorting Yu Qingli all the way back.
It was a bumpy and melancholy journey.
Yu Qingli closed her eyes slightly, resting for the upcoming "battle"! She knew what she was about to face, so at this moment! She had to plan every step carefully!
The sound of the carriage wheels made the journey seem long. Perhaps she was really tired, Yu Qingli closed her eyes for a long time without opening them. Mei Hong, who was standing beside her, took a cloak and wanted to cover her with it, but suddenly met her cold eyes, which were clear and bright!
Mei Hong was startled, and the cloak in her hand actually fell to the ground. Why did the look in the lady's eyes just now look like she wanted to kill her? Looking closely, there was nothing but indifference. Was she mistaken?
"what happened?"
Mei Hong hurriedly picked up the cloak again and said, "I thought the young lady was asleep, so I wanted to cover her with something."
"Yeah." Yu Qingli responded softly, but didn't say anything else, which made Mei Hong, who was holding the cloak in her hand, feel embarrassed.
Mei Hong put down her cloak, lifted the carriage curtain and looked out, then called out to Yu Qingli, "Miss, we're here!"
The figure on the roof left silently. This time, there was no need for him to make such a big fuss. He just came to fulfill his deal.
The carriage slowly stopped, and Yu Qingli got off. She then looked up at the newly purchased courtyard, the courtyard with her name, Yu Qingli, written on it.
This is a secluded and quiet courtyard. Although it cannot compare to the former Yu Mansion's wealth and grandeur, it is much brighter than the homes of ordinary officials. Looking up, in the middle hangs a custom-made plaque made of high-quality materials, with two powerful characters written in it: "Yu Mansion".
Judging from the handwriting, it should have been written by Yu Zhengsha himself. Two large stone lions squatted on both sides of the yard, with their fangs and claws bared, as if they were going to devour everyone here.
The doormen standing on both sides saw Yu Qingli getting off the carriage. One of them hurried in to report, while the other stepped forward smartly to greet her.
"Miss, you are finally back. The master has been waiting for you for several days. He must be very happy to know that you are back."
Yu Qingli pursed her lips tightly and said nothing for a long time. These people were all newcomers and she didn't know any of them. She also didn't know how many of her father's spies were among them.
Mei Hong followed Yu Qingli all the way inside. She had helped to arrange the scenery everywhere, but it seemed that the young lady didn't even take a good look at it. She just kept walking towards the inner room, feeling a little disappointed.
The pavilions, towers, carved corridors, even the rockery and the flowers were all arranged according to her preferences. However, looking at the colorful flowers in front of her, Yu Qingli could not feel happy at all, because as soon as she entered the mansion, she was faced with a dazzling red, red lanterns, red curtains, and even the dresses of the servants were all gorgeous.
Yu Qingli clenched her fists, her long nails almost digging into the flesh of her palms. She tried hard to suppress her anger. Her mother hadn't even reached her 77th birthday yet, and yet this new courtyard was decked out in red and colorful decorations. Yu Zhengsha, what on earth did this mean? Where did this put her mother?!
Yu Qingli hurried along, her steps moving like the wind, and soon she entered the inner courtyard. Jiang Bai, who was guarding the door, saw Yu Qingli coming back and hurried over to greet her, "Miss..."
Before he could finish his words, Yu Qingli came up and slapped him in the face!
"Snapped!"
After a crisp sound, blood flowed from Jiang Bai's lips, but Jiang Bai still had a respectful look on his face. Like Yu Zhengsha, he seemed to never deviate from the loyal role they played.
The new servants looked at each other, and the meaning in their eyes was self-evident. This young lady seemed to be very powerful, but why did she beat someone for no reason?
This slap made Yu Qingli look like a fierce and arrogant daughter in the eyes of these servants.
Jiang Bai still stood straight, his eyes on his nose, his nose on his heart. Even though he was beaten, he was not moved at all, and it seemed that he didn't even frown.
"presumptuous!"
A threatening voice came from the house, and Yu Zhengsha walked out proudly.
The death of his wife and concubine did not seem to have much impact on him, at least there was not much pain on his face. The furrowed brow and stern cold shout at this moment were obviously because Yu Qingli hit Jiang Bai.
After beating his dog, the real culprit finally came out!
Yu Qingli sneered, raised her chin slightly, and met Yu Zhengsha's cold and experienced eyes.
"What? You haven't been home for a few days, and now you come back to take it out on Jiang Bai? Didn't your father always teach you to respect others? Is this how you respect others?!" Yu Zhengsha's voice was not loud, but it was faintly filled with anger, and it also carried a majesty that did not allow for questioning.
Those powerful words immediately established Yu Zhengsha's prestige among those servants. It is really hard to find such a master who is so courteous and respectful to his servants!
This was her father! He practiced his morality all the time, yet the things he did were so despicable! This huge contrast made Yu Qingli almost laugh out loud!
"Apologize!" Seeing that Yu Qingli didn't speak for a long time, Yu Zhengsha said angrily.
Yu Qingli raised her eyebrows. "It was just a beating of a dog. What's there to apologize for? Besides, it was a disobedient dog!"
"Yu Qingli!" Faced with his daughter's provocation, Yu Zhengsha's face tensed, veins popping out on his forehead, his anger brimming with rage. Since becoming prime minister, when had he ever been treated so harshly? Even when beating a dog, one has to look at the owner first, let alone Jiang Bai, who had been with him for so many years!
"master……"
Jiang Bai stepped forward at this moment and spoke respectfully and reasonably, "Young lady, you have your reasons for taking action. Master, there's no need to be so angry! Be careful not to get yourself hurt by anger."
What he said was a double entendre. It was obvious that if Yu Qingli could tell him the answer, he would have been beaten in vain. If he couldn't tell her the answer, Jiang Bai would not be easily bullied.
Yu Qingli sneered, "Let me ask you! Why are there so many red lanterns hanging in this mansion?"
"That's what I meant!" Yu Zhengsha took over and said, "Moving into a new house naturally needs some joy!"
"Happy?!" Yu Qingli's voice suddenly pierced. "Mom just passed away. Not to mention the three years of mourning, it's not even seventy-seven days yet, and Dad actually wants Jiang Bai to wear red and colorful decorations in this mansion. Where do you think Mom is?! Dad, you're so well-educated and polite, but have you forgotten even this most basic etiquette?"
He wanted to be a gentleman! He chose to remove that veil of hypocrisy!
When the new servants heard this, they suddenly understood. No wonder the young lady got so angry as soon as she came back. There was actually such a reason. In this way, it seemed that the master and the housekeeper Jiang were to blame. As the saying goes, the dead are respected, and the lady is not dead yet. This is extremely disrespectful!
Yu Qingli's questioning made Yu Zhengsha's face darker and darker. The fortitude and pride he had maintained all his life disappeared in the face of Yu Qingli's accusations.
However, Yu Zhengsha had been in the officialdom for many years, so how could such a small matter make him lose his composure? After a moment, he said solemnly, "Of course I know that the dead should be respected, but the dead are gone. I have said that the children of the Yu family are all strong-willed. Even if I die, you are not allowed to shed tears or be sad. I have decorated this mansion with new things so that you can get over this sadness as soon as possible!"
Yu Zhengsha's words were truly inspiring. If someone didn't know him, they would definitely think he was such a good father and such a strong-willed adult.
Yu Qingli found it increasingly ridiculous. "Absurd! We Canghe govern the country with benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and filial piety. If we can't even observe our mother's seventh day of mourning, how can we be filial and righteous?"
Before Yu Qingli finished speaking, Jiang Bai knelt down in front of her with a thud and kowtowed three times. "Miss, this matter was handled by me alone and has nothing to do with the master. I saw that you were worried and cautious, so I wanted to take advantage of this housewarming event to make you happy. I never thought that my good intentions would lead to bad consequences and offend the spirit of the late Madam. I am willing to kneel before the spirit of the late Madam for a full seven days to atone for my sins."
What a loyal and righteous servant!
