The Eldest Daughter Returns: Imperial Uncle, I'm Pregnant!
Chapter 5 The Wet Nurse Adorned with Gold and Silver
Ning Er grabbed the tablecloth from the table and threw it to the girl in the corner without looking back. As for the girl on the ground, he grabbed a blanket and covered her face with it to prevent her from getting dirty.
When Wang Dazhu, who had followed her in, saw his sister's condition, he rushed over, wishing he could chop that bastard up right then and there.
"Little sister! Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
"Brother?" The woman called out tentatively, her eyes wide, and after confirming, tears streamed down her face. "Brother, you're finally here! That beast! I'm going to kill him! Kill him!"
"Brother's here! Don't be afraid!" A tough-looking man's eyes suddenly welled up with tears. "You don't need to lift a finger, I'll kill him right now!"
He was about to roll up his sleeves, his eyes red, looking like he wouldn't stop until he killed Liu Jin.
Ning Er stopped Wang Dazhu from stepping forward and said, "Now that the young lady is here, she certainly won't let this go so easily. Do you want to bear the reputation of a murderer? The young lady is still outside."
"Brother!" The woman heard what Ning Er said and immediately hugged her brother's arm. She thought that since the young lady had saved them, she wouldn't abandon them. He was her only family, and she couldn't let him be branded a murderer. "Brother, I believe the young lady will stand up for us. You're my only family! Brother..."
"But...but!" Wang Dazhu said, his eyes red and his fists clenched, his voice choked with emotion, "You were bullied, and I can't swallow this!"
"Brother, it hasn't come to that embarrassing point yet. Although your sister is afraid, she will never swallow her anger and be bullied. Let's trust Miss!"
Liu Yuan and his family are incredibly audacious! They dared to commit such a shameful act in the master's backyard. How can the master possibly live here? Do they think they're the masters?!
Over there, Liu Jin, kicked and wrapped in his blanket, rolled around cursing, "You little bitches! I'll get my dad to beat you all to death! Dad! Come save me!"
"My son! My son!" A woman's cries could be heard from afar outside the door. When she entered and saw her son in such pain, she burst into tears. "You've never suffered like this since you were a child! My God! Master, please come quickly! Jin'er has been beaten like this! Master..."
"Hmph! Now that the master has arrived, I'd like to ask him whose master he is!" Ning Er said indifferently.
The woman was stunned when she heard that someone from the master of the house had arrived. She knew something was wrong, but before she could react, the servants dragged her and Liu Jin to the front hall.
Gu Qingwan was an unmarried girl, so naturally she wouldn't go inside. She simply led a group of people to sit down in the front hall and listened to the report with a calm expression.
At this moment, Liu Yuan was also stumbled and pushed into the front hall. Liu Yuan was a little scared when he was outside, but after thinking about it carefully, he was not so scared anymore.
Although his family had done many things against the rules, his mother was the wet nurse of the eldest aunt of the Ning family and was respected by everyone. They did everything under the banner of the Ning family and were usually taken care of by the Prime Minister's wife. So what if the eldest daughter came? Could she possibly overstep the Ning family and the Prime Minister's wife?
After thinking it over, Liu Yuan straightened his back, but then he heard his son and daughter-in-law screaming. When he saw that his son had been dragged there almost naked, with a lot of people watching, Liu Yuan was so angry that his teeth itched. They dared to do this on his turf. If he didn't do something, the people below would look down on him. Humph, let's see how he deals with these people!
"Young Miss, I didn't know you were coming so suddenly, I..."
"Don't know? That's precisely why I came—so you wouldn't know. I just wonder if Master Liu even knows whose servant he is?"
Liu Yuan hated the fact that people called him a slave. His mother and father used to be servants of the Ning family, and now they had become servants of the Gu family along with the young lady. As a result, his whole family was also considered slaves. He had been the master of this estate for so many years, but now he had been reduced to his original status.
"Miss..."
"Ning Er".
"My subordinate is here."
"Lock Liu Yuan's family in the woodshed. Take some men to find out what they've been doing all these years. A reward of one string of cash will be given to anyone who informs us."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding servants couldn't help but gasp. Could they really bring down Liu Yuan's family this time? What if the young lady left, and all those they had reported were finished?
"I'll go first! I don't want money, I just want to expose them!" Wang Dazhu was the first to step forward. "I believe Miss will give us justice!"
"Young Miss! You can't do this. My mother is your mother's wet nurse. Even if you don't care about the monk, you should at least consider the Buddha. Besides, you have the Prime Minister's wife above you. You're not married yet, so you should mind your own business." Liu Yuan couldn't help but feel nervous when he saw that the people outside were starting to get agitated.
"I thought you were relying on someone's power, Madam Prime Minister, ha." Gu Qingwan lowered her head and took a sip of tea.
"Manager Liu, the reason they're looking for you is that the Prime Minister's wife sent you here to bully men and women." Si Qi shouted loudly, not giving Liu Yuan a chance to speak. Her voice was clearly audible to the onlookers.
"no……"
"My goodness, is that the Prime Minister's wife?"
"I've heard that the Prime Minister's wife is very kind and loving."
"Who knows? You can know a person's face but not their heart. The former Prime Minister's wife was much better; she was very considerate of our hardships. When the famine struck, she didn't even charge us rent..."
"Don't talk nonsense... or you'll get arrested..."
Liu Yuan panicked when he heard the discussion below. Over the years, he had indeed relied on the Prime Minister's wife to act arrogantly. Although he was a servant of the Ning family, if the Prime Minister's wife found out that he had slandered her, she would definitely take his life.
"Arrest him and send him to the authorities, and add the charge of defaming the Prime Minister's wife to the list," Gu Qingwan said lightly, setting down her teacup.
"Let's see who dares!" The one who said this was an old woman leaning on a cane. This was Gu Qingwan's mother's wet nurse. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that she was dressed in gold and silver. There was also a maid supporting her.
Gu Qingwan squinted, but didn't make any move. "What are you standing there for? What, do you mean I can't make the decision?"
"I know I was wrong." Ning Yi clasped his hands in a fist and immediately grabbed Liu Yuan. The people outside divided the work and sent Liu Yuan's family into the woodshed. No matter how much the woman cried and shouted, it was no use.
Liu Yuan had never been treated like this before, and could only cry out, "Mother, Mother, please save us!"
"Grandmother! Grandmother, save your grandson!"
The old woman was seething with hatred. Her family had lived like nouveau riche on the estate for years, and they had never been treated like this before, let alone looked down upon like this. Even in the Gu family, they deserved her respect, but this little girl had made her lose face.
"Who are you from? How rude! Didn't you hear what our old lady was saying?" The little maid next to the wet nurse asked, baring her teeth and putting her hands on her hips.
Without saying a word, Siqi stepped forward and slapped the girl several times: "Whose old lady is this! Our old lady is in charge of the Duke's mansion, where did this old lady come from! If you can't speak properly, shut your dog mouth!"
The wet nurse's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. She hadn't thought there was anything wrong with the title before, but it was absolutely terrible to be called that when someone from the master's family came. The wet nurse could only blame the little girl for ruining things.
