Chapter 52: Also Needs to be Proper When Sorting Someone Out

This surface appearance maintaining skill really wasnt something that could just be achieved overnight. No matter how much one wants to stay calm, when being stabbed in the weak spot, one still wouldnt be able to suppress the panic.

Jing Wans face carried a bit of coldness, What kind of personality my mother has, Im the most clear about. Shes someone who wouldnt even dare to kill an ant, how could she be malicious enough to take a life? In the Luo familys rear court, who wants to harm her, theres only just those two people. Otherwise, its just Bai Yiniang that idiot self-directing and self-acting, or else its just..since youre able to know beforehand, I suppose it being that persons possibility is even higher. Regardless of who, you best keep your tail nicely tucked, otherwise..still not leaving? Are you waiting for me to call someone to bring the broom to kick you out?

Luo Jing Ying dared to be insolent in front of Jing Wan, but shes never seen her this cold before. For some reason she was somewhat scared, and didnt dare to try continuing to explain anything. Taking her people, she left, somewhat retreating in defeat. After coming out, she could no longer contain her fear. Previously, when shed returned from the gardens, her mother had asked her why she was unhappy, and shed told her in full detail what had happened. Liu-s.h.i.+ instead laughed and told her that very soon shell help vent her anger, even saying that its even better for a n.o.ble guest to be present. Thinking that her mother must be preparing to make a move, she thus eagerly ran to Elegant Haitang Residence, practically without even thinking. But the results? Not only was she unable to see a good play and might even get punished when she goes back, but more importantly, she might have ruined her mothers great plans.

Jing Wan just quietly sat there, but Sun Yi Jia could distinctly feel that her mood wasnt right. For the first time, Sun Yi Jia ignored her wet nurses suggestion and didnt, because of her indication, just got up and took her leave. The matter had already happened. Leaving just like that would really hurt ones feelings. Moreover, that old servant woman clearly only came charging in because she was there. Else, who would do this kind of arduous and thankless stupid thing. And as for the purpose, it goes without saying. Little sister Wan

Jing Wan looked to her. She didnt want to smile, and didnt force herself to smile either, Big sister Jia, Ive made you see something embarra.s.sing.

Little sister Wan, its actually nothing really. Which familys rear court can be completely clean? Furthermore, I believe in you, and also believe that madam, who can give birth to someone like you, definitely isnt someone with malicious intentions. This matter, anyone with eyes can tell that its a vile persons scheme. Dont take it to heart.

Big sister Jia treats me so sincerely. Since this kind of matter has been brought to the surface, I naturally wont try to cover it up either. As good sisters, we naturally can be frank about all good and bad things. I also believe that big sister Jia wont because of this, have a negative opinion towards me. I just hope that big sister Jia wont let this burdensome matter affect your mood.

This matter surely wont affect me, but this sulky little appearance of yours will affect me. Sun Yi Jia reached out and sc.r.a.ped Jing Wans nose with her finger. Dont stress over this kind of matter, no matter what you still have your grandmother watching over.

To be honest big sister Jia, this matter, regardless what the reason is, Im indifferent. What I care about is how that little life that hadnt even formed yet was gone just like that. Truthfully speaking, I dont like my fathers shu children, but its also only because I dont like this ident.i.ty of theirs, and not they themselves. I can treat them coldly and ignore them. And as long as they dont try to provoke me, under the same roof, I can get along with them peacefully. Yet, I dont want to see them lose their life for no reason. Since the heavens have let them come to this world, other people shouldnt easily take away their life like this.

Sun Yi Jia was shocked. Shed never thought that little sister Wans heart was this kind, this soft. This..way of thinking is not wrong, but sometimes, this will harm the self, and harm those closest and most beloved people to you.

Jing Wan weakly laughed, Big sister Jia is thinking too much. Im just saying that I wont actively go harm or scheme against others, but if others try to actively act against me, I similarly wont be polite. Some people if you dont give them a little profound lesson, theyll always think our second branchs people are made from mud. Big sister Jia, how about you go back first today. Jing Wan said as she leaned in a bit, With big sister Jia here, its not convenient for me to sort someone out even if my hands are itching to do it. To let you know is one thing, but to let you personally witness it is a whole other matter. I still need my image after all.

Sun Yi Jia amusingly snorted, Its impossible even if you wanted to let me see. You may be happy to, but your family wont be happy about it. Alright, Ill just head back first then. Ill come play again another day. If youre free, you can also come to the Ding Duke Manor to come see me. Im usually very bored on normal days. Otherwise, I might just come running to your home everyday.

Jing Wan nodded in consent and then let her servant girl make a copy of the recipe to give to her. Afterwards, she sent her off.

Jing Wan turned back, and wasnt in a hurry to go to Falling Plum Residence either, Wheres that old servant woman?

Miss, in the woodshed.

Wet nurse come with me then, everyone else doesnt need to come.

They knew that their own Miss was just worried that theyll hear something they shouldnt hear. But doesnt she realize that she herself is even younger than them? However, sometimes she was just like this, and as servants, they cant disobey her either.

Outside the woodshed, a rough labor old servant woman was standing guard. Gong mama wasnt present, presumably, having gone to Bai Yiniangs side to check on the situation.

When the door finally opened, Jing Wan walked in. Towards this place where in other peoples eyes was dirty and messy, Jing Wan was unconcerned.

Compared to her earlier crying and screaming, that old servant woman, at this very moment, appeared very quiet. However, unexpectedly, her body was somewhat uncontrollably trembling. If it was because of the fear towards death, then that was rather understandable, but from her gaze, Jing Was felt it probably wasnt just this. Did she say anything? She asked the rough labor old servant women that were watching the door.

Replying to Miss, no. After bringing her here, Gong mama had already asked, but she didnt even say a word.

Jing Wan nodded, this wasnt unexpected. How about now, still dont want to say anything?

That old servant woman lifted her head to look at Jing Wan. Her lips trembled, and a hopeful look appeared in her eyes, but she also hesitated. It was apparent that she was very much struggling inside. But in the end, she still remained silent, lowering her head and curling into ball.

Jing Wan left, neither upset nor angry, and neither happy nor sad.

But it was exactly this att.i.tude that made the old servant woman even more afraid. Earlier, Gong mama unexpectedly didnt berate her, and further didnt have someone beat her. She just casually asked a few things, and afterwards leaned in and said to her, You can also be considered a veteran servant of the Luo family. You probably wouldnt just for the sake of a little bit of wealth betray your master. For you to be able to splash dirty water on Miss in front of an outsider, its clear that you dont care about your own life and death. Then that means, on Bai Yiniang side, you probably must have partic.i.p.ated in it as well. To make the best use of everything, right? I suppose youre not just a lone old woman either. If you really were all alone, you should be thinking about enjoying your later years. Where would you have the time to do something like this thatll shortened your life? Thus, the only remaining possibility is that someone has captured your loved ones as blackmail, or perhaps you also need money for their sake. So for you to do something like this is also understandable, but understanding is still just understanding, and its definitely still just as unforgivable. Regardless of how many loved ones you have, and whether they are in the manor or outside, at the latest, tonight by the zi hour

, you will meet with all of them one by one.

The old woman didnt want to believe, and furthermore unwilling to believe, but Gong mamas att.i.tude was too calm and too confident. In addition, third miss didnt have the least bit of panic that a young lady should have when encountering such things. Even though she repeatedly denied it, inside her heart, she instead felt increasingly scared. She was already at an old age, so it didnt matter if she died, but that one and only grandson of hers, his parents both died early, and he wasnt even 10 years old yet..the more the old woman thought, the more her tears despairingly fell. Third miss has always been kind, perhaps perhaps..the old woman suddenly stood up and charged before the door, beating the door with all her strength, Miss, this old servant knows now, knows that this one is wrong. This old servant will tell you everything. This old servant isnt worthy of pity in death, just begging Miss to save that pitiful grandson of mine, Miss, Miss Unfortunately, even if she screamed her lungs out, no one paid her any attention.

The Falling Plum Residence was extremely quiet. This place was the second branchs main courtyard. Only Jing Wans parents lived here. The Yiniangs and her two younger shu sisters were all in the little courtyard in the back. Most likely, everyone was there right now.

Third miss has come? Madam has a small matter to take care of and isnt here right now. Come in and have a seat first, this servant will make you some tea. When Zhang-s.h.i.+s personal first ranked servant girl Lu Mei saw her, she quickly went forward, yet inside she was somewhat anxious. How come third miss just so happens to come over at this time? Didnt she have a n.o.ble guest at her place?

Jing Wan waved her hand, How is it over at Bai Yiniangs side?

Lu Meis expression changed, Which loud-mouthed servant reported the matter before third miss?
