Chapter 124 Mi Yao Returns to Shizhong Mansion
Ouyang Hui also recruited a group of people in the past few days, including young teenagers, beggars of various kinds, both men and women. Mi Yao took out a large sum of money, food and cloth and asked Ouyang Hui to arrange these people. Once the manor was built, they would move in.
After three days of busy work, Mi Yao dressed up again, took a carriage from the south city to the capital, and went straight to the residence of Lord Shizhong.
Looking at the two big words "Mi Mansion" written in red and golden, Mi Yao sneered in his heart, believing that it would not be long before these two words would be taken down.
"Please let them know that Mi Yao is here." Mi Yao looked at the doorman and confided with her red lips.
The doorman went in quickly to report that although they had never seen Mi Yao, they had heard of the children born to the master's first wife in his hometown and the two young ladies who now came to the mansion. It was said that there was a key person who had not come yet, so they thought this must be it.
Chu Qianqian was drinking tea. A few days ago, her house was robbed, the storehouse was stolen, and a lot of gold and silver jewelry was lost in her room. Fortunately, her personal belongings were hidden in the outer house, and she only lost some daily wear. Compared with Mi Jianshu, Chu Qianqian was much more relaxed. And happier, because Mi Jianshu was penniless now and could only rely on Chu Qianqian, so he loved Chu Qianqian even more.
"Madam, there is a girl outside the door asking to see you. She said her name is Mi Yao." The doorman reported.
"Drink it. Come on, let me in." Chu Qianqian drank tea calmly.
"Yes." The doorman went to bring someone away.
"This country girl is really in a hurry. It seems she is very anxious to marry into the Marquis of Lin'an." Li Xueruo smiled while covering her mouth.
"It's a great fortune for a country girl like her to marry into a noble family in Beijing." Li Xuemei sneered.
Li Xueruo and Li Xuemei are the daughters of Chu Qianqian and her ex-husband, one is 18 years old and the other is 16 years old. Both of them look like their mother Chu and have a bad temper. Especially in the Shizhong Mansion, they are arrogant and have no feelings for the children born to their mother and Mi Jianshu. They usually order them around. Now that Xun and her two daughters are here, the two sisters seem to have found fun toys and have been sarcastic to Milan and Mi You.
Mi Yao was led into the yard by the servant and into the main hall.
When Chu Qianqian saw Mi Yao's appearance and figure, she narrowed her eyes in jealousy. Li Xueruo and Li Xuemei tightened their handkerchiefs in jealousy.
"Why don't you kneel down when you see your stepmother?" Chu Qianqian came up and showed her power.
"Legitimate mother? The principal wife is the legitimate mother. It seems my father hasn't divorced my mother yet." Mi Yao said with a smile.
"The master has already promised me that he would allow Xun to be his concubine, so I am the lady of Lord Shizhong's mansion and the master's legal wife." Chu Qianqian looked at Mi Yao's bright smile and gritted her teeth in anger.
"I promised you, but it doesn't matter yet. It won't be too late to kneel down before you become my wife." Mi Mo continued calmly.
"You are a country girl, and you dare to talk back to me. You are so uneducated. If you go to Lin'an Marquis' Mansion like this, people will laugh at us for having no rules in Shizhong Mansion, Ma'am Li..." Chu Qianqian stretched out her voice.
A sturdy old woman came over. She had a fat body and wore tight clothes. The flesh on her body was layered like a swimming ring, which made Mi Mo want to laugh.
"Puchi" Mi Yao couldn't help it after all.
"Bitch!" Nanny Li raised her hand and slapped Mi Yao's pink little face.
Mi Yao just smiled without saying a word. Watching the huge slap coming towards her, Mi Yao stretched out her weak arm and steadily caught Li Ma's arm, which was as hard as a hammer.
"People, when you get older, you have to cultivate your character and stop losing your temper easily. Otherwise, you will die faster. Listen to me and don't get angry. Otherwise, you will die with your money unspent, which will be a shame." Mi Mo waved her hand, and Li Ma Ma staggered and almost fell.
"Bitch, how dare you hit me." Nanny Li was used to being domineering in Shizhong Mansion. Usually, anyone who dared to treat her like this would just call her Nanny Li obediently. When had she ever suffered such a loss?
"You hit me, and I'm just waiting to be hit by you? I'm not stupid." Mi Yao smiled brightly, but it pissed off everyone in the hall.
Several maids lowered their heads, seemingly smiling, but they were actually enduring some pain. This was the biggest loss that Nanny Li had ever suffered in all the years she had been in the mansion.
"You little bitch, I..." Nanny Li stood up and started to speak harshly.
"She comes from a noble family, but she calls people a bitch all the time. Tsk tsk, her family tradition is not very good. Even in our country, those who gossip about their wives don't curse people like this. Madam's upbringing and quality are really not as good as those old women in our country." Mi Mo said carelessly.
"You..." Nanny Li wanted to curse more, trying to get back at her.
"Madam, please go down and have some rest." Chu Qianqian spoke.
"Mi Yao, now that you have returned to Shizhong Mansion, you will be our lady in the future. You must be careful about your words and actions, and never bring your country ways into the capital, otherwise the master will become a laughing stock among the people of the capital." Chu Qianqian said in a dignified manner.
"My principle is that I will not offend others unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will definitely offend them." Mi Yao looked at Chu Qianqian, and their eyes met. In a flash, Chu Qianqian saw the indifference and murderous intent in Mi Yao's eyes.
Chu Qianqian quickly withdrew her gaze. Why did she feel that this girl was so weird?
"Miss, you've worked hard on the journey. Go down and have a rest. Your father will come back and give you a welcome dinner." Chu Qianqian said with a smile.
Mi Yao turned around and followed the maid out.
"Mom, just let her go like that!" Li Xueruo was furious.
"She has already entered the mansion, so we have the final say. I think that girl is a little evil, so you two'd better not mess with her. Wait until she enters the Lin'an Marquis Mansion and your father gets a promotion. I'll buy you some headgear." Chu Qianqian said with a smile.
Mi Yao entered the backyard and came to a remote courtyard.
"Miss, this is Madam Xun's courtyard." The little maid lowered her head.
"You can go down." Mi Mo would not make things difficult for this maid.
Pushing open the gate, Mi Yao saw Mi You working in the vegetable garden.
"You'er!" Mi Yao called softly.
"Big sister." Mi You turned her head and looked at Mi Yao who was smiling. She ran over and threw herself into Mi Yao's arms, crying as if she was describing how miserable her life was these days.
"Okay, big sister is here, everything will be fine, don't cry." Mi Yao gently stroked Mi You's back.
Xun also came out when he heard the voice, but after seven or eight days of separation, Xun's spirit was obviously not as good as the last time they met, and his eyes were gloomy.
"The little one is here!" When Xun saw Mi Yao, she seemed to have lost her mind and her voice became louder.
"Mom, don't be afraid, I'm here. Where's Lan'er?" Mi Mo asked.
"By the way, Yao'er, go check on Lan'er. She had a stomachache just now, and Daniu helped her to rest." After saying this, Xun pulled Mi Yao into Milan's room.
The last time Mi Yao came was in the middle of the night, and he had no idea that his mother and sisters' yard was so dilapidated. How dare this Mi Jianshu?
