Chapter 81: Rectifying Butler Li
Although Jiang Wansang has been busy with the hot pot restaurant, she knows that the people in the prime minister's mansion will definitely not be content.
Especially after hearing that her hot pot restaurant had the support of Pei Zhanzhou, even if he didn't dare to attack the hot pot restaurant, he would definitely attack her.
Sure enough, a few days later, Zhe Liu angrily brought the news: "Miss, the housekeeper is really too much. He actually withheld our monthly salary!"
Ever since Jiang Wansang beat up all the masters of the Prime Minister's Mansion, the food, clothing and other expenses in Tingsang Pavilion are no worse than those in the main courtyard, and the monthly allowance has never been reduced.
The housekeeper suddenly withheld the monthly salary. If Jiang Wansang said there was no one behind it, he would not believe it even if he was beaten to death.
She was not interested in finding out who ordered it. Anyway, she had wanted to deal with the housekeeper for a long time.
Jiang Wansang asked, "What's the reason?"
Zhe Liu's face was filled with anger. "The housekeeper said that since the young lady is doing business outside, she will definitely not be short of this little money. However, the Prime Minister's Mansion is so big that money is needed everywhere, so they want to be frugal. That's why they won't give us the monthly salary."
The ladies want to do business and are short of money right now. How can they say they won’t be short of this little money?
Even if the young lady made money from her business, it was earned by her own ability. Why should she receive less of their monthly salary!
Seeing her look so angry that she almost rushed out to slap the housekeeper, Jiang Wansang couldn't help but laugh, "Don't be angry, the young lady will help you vent your anger in a moment."
She put down what she was holding and decided to deal with the housekeeper's affairs first.
"Zheliu, go pick out two pieces of jewelry from my dressing table. They must be valuable and easy to carry. Jiang Yi, call Lin Tong and pick out a few strong servants to wait at the door. Jiang Jiu, come closer..."
Jiang Wansang gave the order promptly and efficiently, and it was obvious that he had already thought of a method.
After a while, she brought a group of people from Tingsang Pavilion to look for Butler Li.
Steward Li is the steward in charge of the Prime Minister's Mansion. His biological mother is Nanny Li, a popular figure around Old Madam Jiang, so he has his own courtyard in the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Before Jiang Wansang's large team reached the yard, someone came to report to Butler Li.
Therefore, when Jiang Wansang arrived, Butler Li was waiting respectfully at the gate of the courtyard with his men.
"Greetings, Miss." Butler Li said respectfully, "I wonder what brings you here, Miss?"
Jiang Wansang looked at Butler Li with a cold expression. He looked him up and down for a long moment before he spoke slowly, "Butler Li manages all the affairs of the Prime Minister's residence, and yet he manages to eat his way into this figure. I guess he's always had a lot of money."
Butler Li is a bit fat. Although he usually hunches over when facing his master, he can't hide his well-fed appearance.
Even a fool could sense the hostility in Li's words, so he quickly said, "What are you talking about, Miss? I work so hard for the Prime Minister's Mansion, so naturally I eat more."
"My life is filled with toil. I have to work hard every day for the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion. I can't compare to the eldest lady, who has the leisure to bring so many people to visit a servant like me."
This was certainly disrespectful, but Jiang Wansang didn't seem angry at all.
She smiled and spoke in a friendly manner, "Since Steward Li is so busy with all the affairs of the Prime Minister's Mansion, then if something is lost in Tingsang Pavilion, it should also be Steward Li's responsibility, right?"
Butler Li was stunned, not quite understanding what she meant.
Jiang Wansang didn't waste any words and raised his hand to signal Jiang Jiu.
Under everyone's puzzled and curious gazes, Jiang Jiu strode towards Butler Li and directly stuffed two pieces of jewelry that were not small and looked very expensive into his hands.
No one understood what this meant, and Butler Li was even more confused.
Could it be that the young lady is trying to bribe him and please him?
But she made such a fuss and bribed herself in front of so many people, which seemed too stupid!
Butler Li's contempt had not yet shown on his face when Jiang Jiu suddenly lifted up his wrist.
"Great, so it was Butler Li who stole my young lady's things!" Jiang Jiu said loudly, "This jewelry belongs to my young lady. I have the receipt for the jewelry. He was caught red-handed. What else does Butler Li have to explain?"
Everyone was shocked by this action and stood there in a daze. The air was silent for a few seconds.
Butler Li pointed at Jiang Jiu with his other hand, trembling, and kept saying "you you you" for a long time without saying a word.
Jiang Jiu was originally a shy person, and following the young lady's instructions to do such a bold thing in front of so many people almost used up all her courage.
But it’s pretty cool!
Facing Butler Li's questioning at this moment, she didn't say a word, but just pinched his wrist expressionlessly, and her aura looked even more frightening.
Steward Li has been in the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years, so naturally he has his own lackeys.
After a few seconds of silence, a servant stepped forward and said, "What do you mean, Miss? How dare you frame Butler Li in broad daylight? Do you think we're blind?"
When someone spoke up, others naturally agreed: "Yes, yes, there are so many of us watching, and we can all testify that it was the eldest lady who deliberately framed Butler Li. This is still the case even if it comes to the master and the mistress!"
"The eldest lady has gone too far! I've heard her hit people with a stick before, but I never thought she would do something like this now."
Many people acted "indignant", as if they were united to do something righteous, but Jiang Wansang just turned his head slightly, with a calm look, and had no intention of paying any attention to them at all.
She gestured to Jiang Yi and Lin Tong beside her, "If you disrespect the master, you will be punished with a cane."
As soon as these words were spoken, Lin Tong and Jiang Yi, who had been waiting on the side, immediately stepped forward with the servants they brought from Tingsang Pavilion and grabbed the servants who had shouted the loudest just now.
"Bang bang bang!"
"what--"
Accompanied by the sound of sticks hitting flesh, bursts of screams rang out one after another.
No one expected Jiang Wansang to act so efficiently. The servants who had escaped the disaster all looked at her with fear and terror in their eyes.
Jiang Wansang glanced at these people calmly, "Is there anyone else who wants to testify on behalf of Butler Li?"
Her tone was gentle, but it made everyone subconsciously avoid her sight. Even if they had any thoughts in their hearts, they didn't dare to show them at this time.
After seeing this scene, Butler Li finally came to his senses and immediately yelled, "Jiang Wansang, what are you crazy about..."
Before he could finish his words, a slap suddenly landed on his face.
Jiang Jiu grabbed Butler Li's wrist with one hand and slapped him without hesitation with the other, his eyes filled with coldness, "How dare you call the young lady by her name!"
Jiang Wansang glanced at Jiang Jiu with admiration, then looked at Butler Li, "No one can testify for Butler Li, but so many people saw that my jewelry was in Butler Li's hands."
"Butler Li has been in charge of the Prime Minister's Mansion for so many years. He should know how to deal with servants who have dishonest behavior, right?"
Things developed too quickly. Even if Butler Li racked his brains, he could not imagine that Jiang Wansang would dare to be so arrogant.
He couldn't even care about acting anymore, staring at Jiang Wansang with resentment, "Do you know what happens if you offend me?"
