It would be strange if Old Lady Jiang wasn't angry at all!

Jiang Fugui had just finished a few long sentences when he suddenly changed the subject and began to speak obediently and sensibly, "Of course, I was a little harsh just now. Zhaocai Zuoyou is just a little beast who knows nothing. Maybe it's just his nature to love playing. When we get back, Fourth Sister will spend some time and effort to teach him some rules. He will definitely change for the better. On the way here, I thought about it carefully. After all, maybe it was my fault for being so careless to give the clothes to Mei'er for safekeeping. I knew she was so busy with things in the backyard of the mansion and might not be able to pay attention to me sometimes..."

Jiang Wei sneered: "Humph, it's good that you know!"

"Well, I was a little too pushy after all."

"Mei'er has received your grace and is able to serve in the courtyard. That is her blessing, but if she does not do her duty well, she will be derelict in her duty."

Old Lady Jiang spoke slowly and in a cold tone.

Then she took the teacup and took a sip of the newly added tea.

Jiang Fugui glanced at Old Lady Jiang, and when he lowered his head and half-closed his eyes, he also deliberately glanced at Jiang Weishi, as if he was a little embarrassed: "That being said, but..."

Jiang Weishi felt something was amiss when she heard Jiang Fugui's words, so she quickly interjected, "But what? Mei'er was my maid before, and if she didn't do her job well, it means I didn't discipline her well enough, so she should be punished. However, Mei'er has now moved into the second girl's courtyard, so she should be responsible for disciplining the people in her own courtyard. She can't just let them idle away forever, which would be putting the cart before the horse."

Ok?

Judging from what Jiang Weishi said, was she accusing her, Jiang Fugui, of not being able to discipline the people in the yard?

"How old is Nannan? You are the mistress of the house, and her aunt, but you don't help to discipline the servants, but let this little girl suffer?" Old Lady Jiang swept a sharp look at Jiang Weishi and said unhappily, "Since you are unwilling to discipline the servants, then I will do it myself. Qingyan..."

Nanny Qingyan nodded, stepped forward, dragged Mei'er out of Nanny Ye's hands, and forced her to kneel in front of Old Lady Jiang: "But you are in charge of the box of clothes?"

Mei'er trembled, glanced at Jiang Weishi, and then stammered, "Yes, yes..."

Nanny Qingyan asked again, "Are the three new clothes and accessories that the Second Young Lady wore for the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet truly ruined?"

Mei'er turned her head and glanced at Jiang Weishi again, then knelt down and begged for mercy, her voice starting to sob: "Old Madam, Second Madam, I'm innocent, I'm innocent! It must have been the Second Young Lady. She deliberately... deliberately... framed me... Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that all three sets of new clothes would be damaged!"

"Snapped!"

Before Mei'er could finish her words, Nanny Qingyan raised her hand and slapped her.

A maid who doesn't respect her master really needs discipline.

Old Lady Jiang waved her hand at Madam Qingyan and said, "Take her away and discipline her for the Second Young Miss. Let her know what the rules are."

Before Mei'er could react, Nanny Qingyan had already called two servants to drag her out.

Along the way, one could still hear Mei'er's cries for help: "Second Madam, please save this slave, I am yours!"

Seeing this, Jiang Huagui softly pleaded for Mei'er, "Grandmother, why don't you forgive Mei'er this time? She must know she's wrong. For the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, how about I give Second Sister a new set of clothes? Then, I'll prepare another set for myself, and Second Sister can prepare two sets of her own. How do you think?"
