Reborn, the daughter of the Marquisate went crazy

Nanny Xu has always been cautious and reliable, otherwise she would not have become the nanny that Old Madam Xie relies on the most. But today she was slandered by a housekeeper. She was so angry that she wanted to kick Granny Ma a few times.

Her face was gloomy, and she asked in a low voice: "Miss, what do you think we should do about this matter?"

Xie Qingli wiped the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief and said softly, "The bottom line is, this matter was caused by this housekeeper who falsely conveyed Grandmother's orders and messed up the task assigned by Matron. She should be the one to handle it."

"However, I was insulted by her for no reason, and my maid was beaten by her. I feel a little aggrieved. I hope that Madam can help me vent my anger when she handles the matter!"

Aunt Xu nodded gently, secretly sighing that the young lady did not overstep her authority. She was indeed a perceptive person! She bowed slightly to Xie Qingli and said softly, "Young lady, please rest assured. Since you trust me, I will definitely seek justice for you!"

She turned her head to look at the people on the ground and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong with you guys? Why was Granny Ma beaten like this?"

The wealthy woman hurriedly said, "Madam, last night Granny Ma picked out a few dishes and arranged for us to deliver them to the Old Lady, the Second House, and the Marquis's courtyard. When we came back, we found that Granny Ma had loaded all the remaining wine and food onto the cart."

"We asked her where she was sending it, but she said it was the old lady's order and told us not to ask any more questions. We became suspicious, so we sent a maid to follow her secretly, and we discovered that she had taken all the wine and food back home."

"In the kitchen, Granny Ma has always been the boss. Even though we feel something is fishy, ​​we dare not speak out."

"It just so happened that the eldest lady came to ask about the banquet today. We couldn't help but report the matter to her. But Granny Ma got furious and picked up a kitchen knife to chop us. To survive, we had no choice but to unite and resist her..."

Nanny Xu frowned, somewhat skeptical about why these people were so righteous, but the words were reasonable and logical, and there was nothing wrong with them, so she stopped worrying about it and secretly thought about how to report the matter to the old lady and the second lady.

The two maids suddenly crawled over and knelt in front of Madam Xu, begging, "Madam, please be merciful and save us!"

Aunt Xu was stunned and asked in confusion, "What do you mean by this?"

The dark and thin old woman had a sad face and said sadly, "Ma, you don't know, Granny Ma is a relative of the Second Madam's wet nurse and a close confidant of the Second Madam. Now that we have injured Granny Ma, the Second Madam will definitely beat us up and sell us out!"

Nanny Xu opened her eyes wide in shock, but before she could say anything, the wealthy woman spoke anxiously, "Madam, please seek justice. We are willing to expose Granny Ma and her son for embezzling a huge amount of money from the Marquis' Mansion and enriching themselves!"

Aunt Xu was horrified and said sternly, "Do you have any evidence for this matter? Otherwise, you are slandering me!"

The wealthy nanny pulled out the account book from her bosom and shouted, "Here's the evidence!"

As soon as she finished speaking, several maids who were often bullied by Granny Ma knelt in front of Granny Xu and expressed their willingness to testify.

Aunt Xu had never imagined that a family dinner would lead to so many things. She couldn't handle such a big thing, nor did she dare to hide it.

Glancing around, she ordered in a deep voice, "Bring Granny Ma with you and follow me to Songhe Hall!"

The two old women lifted up Granny Ma, and the group headed towards Songhe Hall in a mighty procession.

In Songhe Hall, Mrs. Xie was stirring a bowl of bird's nest with a worried look on her face.

Nanny Xu hurried over and whispered a few words into Old Madam Xie's ear. Old Madam Xie's face changed drastically and she angrily ordered everyone to be brought in.

Xie Qingli followed everyone into Songhe Hall and slowly sat down on a chair in the corner.

Madam Xie took drastic measures. Not only did she invite the housekeeper of the Marquis' Mansion, she also captured Granny Ma's son and brought the purchasing records of the main kitchen.

But within an hour, they discovered that Granny Ma's son had sold inferior goods as good ones, lied about prices, and Granny Ma had stolen ingredients from the kitchen to exchange for money. In the end, the accountant even calculated that the mother and son had embezzled thousands of taels of silver from the Marquis' Mansion every year!

Everyone was shocked!

Madam Xie's face turned pale. She said in a deep voice, "Madam Xu, go and call Madam An!"

Just as Aunt Xu received the order, An had already hurried into Songhe Hall. She saw Granny Ma lying on the ground and her face suddenly changed.

She scanned the room and finally found Xie Qingli sitting in the corner. She angrily said, "Xie Qingli, it wasn't enough that you kicked Xuan'er, you even brought people to the kitchen to cause trouble and beat up Granny Ma. Are you trying to cause unrest in the Marquis's mansion?"

Xie Qingli was enjoying the fun when she was suddenly called by An. She stood up and said softly, "Second Aunt, Li'er didn't run into Brother Xuan'er last night. I was just wronged today and went to the kitchen to seek an explanation. But I swear I didn't hurt anyone!"

An said coldly: "No matter how eloquent you are..."

"Enough!" Mrs. Xie slammed the table angrily.

An was startled. She looked at Old Madam Xie and said softly, "Mother-in-law, Xie Qingli..."

Madam Xie had already thrown several account books at An's head and said sternly, "Look at how you manage the household. An egg costs one ounce of silver. Even if you keep a chicken in your bed, its eggs wouldn't be that expensive!"

An picked up the account books and widened her eyes in shock. Was this something done by Ma Po Po's son?

"Grandma, Grandma!" Xie Tingxuan shouted as he ran quickly into Songhe Hall. He walked briskly, completely different from last night when he was in so much pain that he couldn't walk.

He entered Songhe Hall and threw himself directly into Old Madam Xie's arms, saying coquettishly, "Grandma!"

When Mrs. Xie saw her eldest grandson, her expression improved slightly and she asked gently, "Why didn't Xuan'er go to the academy?"

Xie Tingxuan hugged Madam Xie's arm and said angrily, "Xuan'er's feet hurt. I've asked for leave from the academy to recuperate for a few days."

Old Madam Xie had just seen it clearly and knew that there was nothing wrong with Xuan'er's feet. She couldn't help but look slightly gloomy.

Xie Tingxuan didn't notice. He looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground and begged, "Grandma, please let Grandma Ma and her son go!"

Mrs. An didn't know how Xie Tingxuan found out about Granny Ma, so she quickly stopped him, saying, "Xuan'er, stop talking nonsense. Your grandmother makes all the decisions in the mansion. It's not your turn as a child to interfere!"

Xie Tingxuan said nonchalantly, "They are just two servants. Xuan'er, please beg Grandmother to let them go, okay?"

Madam Xie said in a deep voice: "Xuan'er pleaded for them, but do you know what mistakes they made?"

Xie Tingxuan smiled, revealing his white teeth. When he was little, his grandmother loved to see him smile. He said nonchalantly, "It was just a few bites of food from the kitchen. Why make such a fuss?"

An finally realized that something was wrong with Xie Tingxuan and asked in a cold voice, "Who told you these things, Xuan'er?"
