Chapter 139 Entering the Mansion
Chapter 139 Entering the Mansion
The old woman was stunned for a moment, covering her beaten face and sneering: "Yan Liangyuan is so arrogant! I can't afford to serve you." After saying that, she turned around and left.
Yan Xinning grabbed the cup on the table and smashed it hard on the back of her head.
boom!
Very good accuracy!
The old woman only felt a heat and pain at the back of her head. When she touched it, her hands were covered with sticky blood.
"Ah! Yan Liangyuan is going to kill someone!" The old woman screamed and rushed out of the yard.
Yan Xinning was almost mad with anger.
Even after knowing that she was not the real daughter of Lord Yan, the servants in the Lord's mansion did not dare to neglect her. She did not expect to be treated so coldly and humiliated on her first day in the Second Prince's villa.
Yan Xinning was filled with rage and wished she could beat that old woman to death to relieve her anger.
The old woman's screams soon attracted the housekeeper Song from the other courtyard.
Steward Song had a droopy face and was not very respectful to Yan Xinning. He bowed perfunctorily and said, "Yan Liangyuan, this is not the mansion of the mansion lord. You can't be arrogant and do whatever you want. His Highness is a man who values rules. You seriously injured the servants in the other courtyard on your first day. Isn't this a slap in His Highness's face? Besides, you are so cruel, who dares to serve you?"
Yan Xinning became even angrier.
The housekeeper didn't even take her seriously. It turned out that the people in the Second Prince's villa were all slaves who bullied their masters!
She sneered with a tense face: "Butler Song, right? I am His Highness's concubine. If the servants below bully me like this, when His Highness finds out, can you afford it?"
Steward Song was calm and composed, and said with a fake smile: "Yan Liangyuan, His Highness considers you his woman, and you are the one. No matter what you rely on outside, in this villa, you can only rely on His Highness. Do you understand, Yan Liangyuan?"
Yan Xinning's face turned pale and her heart felt cold.
She understood what Butler Song said.
Here, anyone can bully her as long as she is not favored.
She used dishonorable means to flatter the Second Prince, and the Second Prince was angry, so he ignored her and deliberately let his servants humiliate her.
Yan Xinning felt aggrieved and sad.
She was a talented woman ranked among the best in Nanchang. She was beautiful, proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and had the support of the Palace Master's Mansion. How could she not be worthy of the Second Prince? If she had not been bewitched by Xie Chujiao, she would not have fallen into the embarrassing situation she is in now. However, she had explained to the Second Prince and apologized, so why was he still holding a grudge?
Yan Xinning hates.
She hated Jian Yue, hated Xie Chujiao, and even resented the Second Prince.
She seemed to have all her strength drained away, and said dejectedly: "I understand, it was my fault. I will give some silver to the old woman to treat her injuries. I didn't mean to do it, I just lost my balance for a moment. I'll have to trouble Butler Song to comfort the old woman." As she spoke, she asked Huang Li to take out fifty taels of silver and give it to Butler Song.
Huang Li said: "Please ask Steward Song to go buy him a cup of tea."
Butler Song took it, shook it, and was quite satisfied. He didn't mind giving Yan Xinning a few words: "Yan Liangyuan, each family has its own rules. You must not bring your old temper into the family. Getting married is like being reborn. You must be submissive when you need to be."
"Thank you for your advice, Steward Song." Yan Xinning had studied for so many years, and she immediately understood what Steward Song meant. She smiled and said, "I'm new here, and I don't know the rules of the mansion. I hope Steward Song will teach me. If I live a good life in the future, I will never forget Steward Song's help."
"Okay, okay. Liangyuan, just let me know if you have any requests in the future." Butler Song was quite satisfied to see Yan Xinning was so considerate. He said a few polite words and left with his head held high.
"You are such a jerk! When I turn over a new leaf, the first thing I will do is to kill you." Yan Xinning cursed a few times, and then she felt better. She told Huangli to go out and see if the second prince was in the other courtyard. She couldn't just sit there and wait for death. She had to find a way to get pregnant as soon as possible. With a child, she would have the confidence and a place in the second prince's heart.
The next day after Yan Xinning went out, Xie Chujiao brought the maids and servants to pick up Jian Yue and bring her back home.
This time, Jian Yue was very happy and took Fu Yun and Mu Xiang on the carriage back to the mansion.
After several fights with Jian Yue, Xie Chujiao knew that Jian Yue didn't care about her face, and was afraid that she would turn away, so she didn't dare to do anything else. She ordered the servants to open the main door and took Jian Yue into the house.
Jian Yue had the original owner's memory in the mansion, and was very familiar with the architectural layout of the mansion. Therefore, when passing by the exquisitely shaped rockery, waterside pavilions, pavilions and towers, she did not look sideways.
Xie Chujiao had been observing her quietly, thinking that she would be shocked by the luxury of the mansion, but she didn't expect that she acted as if she was used to it.
Pack! Keep pretending!
See how long you can pretend?
After passing through the hanging flower gate and a moon gate and turning onto a small path, Jian Yue suddenly stopped.
Xie Chujiao's heart tightened subconsciously: "What's wrong? Yue girl."
Jian Yue looked at her slightly nervous expression and said, "I suddenly remembered a question. Where is Madam going to arrange me?"
Xie Chujiao felt relieved and said with a smile: "Since I've brought you back, can I not arrange a courtyard for you to live in? I asked the servants to clean the Handan Courtyard a long time ago. All the items used in it have been replaced with new ones. The maids and servants have also been arranged. Don't worry, mother has prepared the best for you, and I guarantee that you will live comfortably."
Jian Yue chuckled: "I heard that the best courtyard in the mansion is the Xuexiang Courtyard where Yan Xinning lives. It is not only large and spacious, but also has good lighting and is decorated in the most exquisite way. How come I, the real daughter of the mansion master, am not as good as a fake daughter who has taken over the mansion?"
Xie Chujiao's expression was stiff.
In her heart, she would rather let the fake daughter live in the best courtyard than let the real daughter live there. But she couldn't say such words. She turned cold and said unhappily: "Girl Yue, the courtyards in the mansion are all similar, none of them are bad. Besides, Xinning's furniture is all old, how can it be better than new ones? Why do you care so much? Besides, you just entered the mansion and occupied Xinning's courtyard. If it gets out, outsiders will say that you can't tolerate your mother's adopted daughter."
Jian Yue sneered: "I just can't tolerate her. She is my enemy and a thief. Why should I tolerate her? Didn't she leave the house? Why do we still keep the yard for her? You don't take me seriously and just treat me perfunctorily? In your eyes, I'm not as important as a fake daughter. Then why did I come back? I'd rather not have such a home." After saying that, she turned around and walked out.
Xie Chujiao's heart sank.
For a moment, she really wanted to let Jian Yue go. But she couldn't do that. If she went out and talked nonsense and made a scene at the gate, she would lose face as the lady of the house.
Xie Chujiao hurriedly winked at Madam Liang. Madam Liang quickly stopped Jian Yue and said with a smile...
