Quick Wear: The Enchanting Concubine, Rules of Survival and Plunder

Chapter 440: Concubine of Jingnan Marquis's Mansion 2

Marquis Jingnan looked at his mother and wife with a gloomy face, while Zhiwei was kneeling below and sobbing as she recounted what had happened.

As for Zhixuan, Zhiwei naturally sent her away to serve the master. After all, the master was still unconscious and needed someone to take care of him.

"My Lord, please make a decision for my aunt!" Zhiwei cried miserably, "None of the servants in this mansion take my aunt seriously, especially Madam You. I don't know who ordered her to do so. Not only did she ignore my aunt, she also spoke rudely to her."

"The old lady would call my aunt here to punish her. This must be Nanny You's doing. I don't understand. My aunt is the Marquis's concubine after all. How can a servant like Nanny You have the confidence to be so hostile to my aunt? She even wants to force my aunt to death with the help of the old lady."

"And Madam," Zhiwei pointed the finger at Ding Xinhui, "What was wrong with what my aunt said when she came to pay her respects to Madam in her courtyard? What did Aunt Cai say was not a hint that the Marquis had health problems? Don't the servants in the Marquis's mansion have no manners at all? Otherwise, if the Marquis had asked for water a few times in my aunt's room, it would have spread all over the mansion the next day."

"Although my aunt's tone when talking to Madam was indeed a bit harsh, it's not my aunt's fault! After all, which woman can accept that the things she did with her husband in the room were used as gossip by the servants? Madam is not able to manage the servants in this mansion. Isn't this Madam's fault?"

"Although my aunt's words were a little unpleasant to hear and did offend Madam, on the other hand, I also hope that Madam can manage the servants in this mansion well and not let the servants use the slightest matter of the master as gossip, and not let the master and servant be neither the master nor the servant, with no distinction between the superior and the inferior."

The old lady and Ding Xinhui were so angry that their faces looked extremely ugly, while Nanny You was trembling with fear. It was not that they did not want to ask Zhiwei to shut up, but facing the gloomy face of the Marquis, no one dared to open their mouths to stop Zhiwei from speaking.

Marquis Jingnan naturally would not believe what happened just based on Zhiwei's words, and he had already asked his trusted followers to investigate.

So after Zhiwei finished telling the whole story, she knelt on the ground for nearly half an hour before Jingnan Hou's entourage came in from outside. They leaned over to Jingnan Hou's ear and whispered what they had found out.

It is worth mentioning here that many servants in the Marquis' Mansion have been sworn in with loyalty tokens by Jiang Chunxi, and even the servants trusted by Marquis Jingnan have been sworn in with loyalty tokens.

Therefore, letting Marquis Jingnan let his trusted followers investigate the matter would naturally not be detrimental to Jiang Chunxi. After all, the art of language is very wonderful. The same words can be completely changed when said in another way.

After hearing what his followers said, Marquis Jingnan's face became even gloomier: "Drag Nanny You out and beat her to death. There is no need for her to continue living if she disrespects the master's things."

"Master, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life!" Nanny You was so scared that she immediately knelt on the ground and cried so hard that she couldn't help but collapse. "I was wrong, please spare my life, Master!"

"It was Madam who instigated me to gossip in front of the old lady." As her life was almost gone, Nanny You naturally would not hide the truth for Ding Xinhui anymore.

"Madame You, what nonsense are you talking about?" Ding Xinhui glared at Madame You. "You are such an evil slave that you should be executed for making random accusations against your master."

The old lady glared at Ding Xinhui with extremely dissatisfied eyes. Although she liked Ding Xinhui as a daughter-in-law, which mother-in-law would like her daughter-in-law to bribe the people around her? If the old lady was still skeptical before, now she is certain that her daughter-in-law really bribed the people around her.

Maybe what Aunt Jiang said was true. Her daughter-in-law was taking advantage of her and treating her as a gun in her hand, allowing her to shoot wherever she wanted.

What a deep scheming!

As a mother-in-law, she was actually fooled. Fortunately, she now knew Ding Xinhui's true face, otherwise she would not only be skinned and sold by Ding Xinhui, but also have to count the money for her.

"Madam, what nonsense did I say? The money you gave me is the evidence," Nanny You quickly refuted, and then kowtowed to Marquis Jingnan, "Marquis, it was because I was bewitched that I accepted the money from you, and that's why I slandered Aunt Jiang in front of you."

"Please, my Lord, spare my life!"

Marquis Jingnan did not show any mercy to Nanny You's plea for mercy. He simply waved his hand and ordered people to drag Nanny You out.

After You Ma was dragged out with ghostly cries, she looked at Ding Xinhui and said, "This Marquis trusts you. I always thought you were a good person who worked diligently to help this Marquis manage the household. But I didn't expect that you would manage Jingnan Marquis's mansion in this way and allow the servants in the mansion to talk about this Marquis."

As a man, he naturally would not care about some trivial matters in the mansion. As long as Ding Xinhui did not let the trivial matters in the mansion bother him, Marquis Jingnan always thought that Ding Xinhui managed the household affairs in the mansion very well.

If this incident had not happened today, Marquis Jingnan would not have known that he, the marquis, was being used as a topic of conversation by the servants in the mansion. This could be said to be a matter of great shame and humiliation. After all, as a master, being used as a topic of conversation by the servants would be a huge shame if it got out.

Yes, in Marquis Jingnan's mind, Ding Xinhui did not manage the servants in the mansion well, and this was what really angered Marquis Jingnan. After all, no matter how much he loved Aunt Jiang, he would never embarrass his wife for the sake of an concubine.

A wife is a wife, and a concubine is a concubine. Marquis Jingnan knows this very clearly. He will not let his mind get confused and do stupid things just because he favors his concubine.

"My Lord, I was wrong," Ding Xinhui did not defend herself at this time, because she knew the temper of Marquis Jingnan very well, "My own ability is indeed a little lacking, and I did not help the Marquis manage the servants in the mansion. I beg the Marquis to punish me."

So angry!

Ding Xinhui was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She still hadn't figured out how things turned out like this. She felt like she had lost everything.

In short, Ding Xinhui was really angry and troubled at this moment. The Marquis's side was easy to deal with, but as for her mother-in-law, she was afraid that all her efforts over the years had been in vain.

It was naturally impossible for Marquis Jingnan to punish Ding Xinhui, let alone take away her power as housekeeper.

It would be difficult to trouble his mother as she is old, and of course it is impossible to hand over the housekeeping power to a concubine. Otherwise, if the news gets out, he will probably be accused of favoring his concubine over his wife.

"Ding Xinhui, this Marquis will give you one more chance. If you can't manage the household affairs of this mansion well, then this Marquis doesn't mind changing your wife." Marquis Jingnan said to Ding Xinhui with a cold face:
