Chapter 36
"What, you said Madam was well prepared, but in the end Miss Sun admitted what she did without any evidence?"

After Xiao Ju and Xiao Cui heard about what Lu Wanqiu had done, Yu'er was extremely shocked.

The two nodded in unison.

"Madam is amazing." Yu'er couldn't help boasting.

"That's right, madam is amazing." Xiaoju followed suit.

Xiao Cui tilted her head, and said, "It's just a pity that although Madam made Miss Sun admit what she did, she failed to drive her out of the Hou Mansion."

"What's going on here?" The two only talked about how powerful Lu Wanqiu is, but they didn't say that she was trying to drive Sun Qiaoqiao away.

Hearing Yu'er's question, Xiaocui said softly, "After Miss Sun admitted what she did, she confided in disdain that she looked down on Madam. Madam was so angry that she wanted to drive Miss Sun away."

"And then?" Seeing her speaking slowly, Yu'er couldn't wait.

Xiaocui pursed her lower lip, and said, "Miss Sun said that she came back to the mansion with Lord Hou, and said Madam has no right to drive her away."

"At that time, Master Hou was listening outside. After hearing what she said, Madam called Master Hou in."

"Then... Master Hou actually defended Ms. Sun, saying that Madam has no right to drive her away."

Yu'er bit her lip, feeling a little uncomfortable, "Miss Sun is Lord Hou's cousin with a noble status, but my wife is just the daughter of an ordinary family. Although she gave birth to a son for Lord Hou, the status is not high after all. Lord Hou is partial to you. Miss Sun, it's just as it should be."

"Even though Madam comes from a humble background, she is also Mrs. Hou after all. It's really heartbreaking for Hou to protect Ms. Sun so much." Hearing what she said, Xiaocui said indignantly.

Yu'er glanced at her, and said to herself, that's the attitude you didn't see when Master Hou brought Miss Sun home two days ago.

If she had seen Lord Hou's attitude at that time, she would definitely not have such an idea.

From the first time she saw Sun Qiaoqiao, she could tell that Yan Junyi had a clear preference for her, and in this case, whatever he did was reasonable in her eyes.

"Hey, yes, I'm so sad, my wife was seriously injured today." Xiaoju couldn't help but interjected.

Xiao Cui looked at her, frowned and said, "Madam sent us away, did you just feel sad?"

Xiaoju frowned, and murmured, "Most likely, she still had tears on her face when she just left the house."

"Let's find Madam, and let's comfort Madam." Xiaocui couldn't sit still, and wanted to leave.

Xiaoju glanced at her, "What's the use of our consolation? What Madam needs is the consolation of Master Hou. No matter how much we comfort her, it is impossible to relieve her, and maybe it will make her more uncomfortable. After all, she is sad behind our backs. , just don’t want us to see that she’s sad, don’t you?”

"Then let Master Hou comfort her?" Xiao Cui suggested.

Yu'er said coolly, "What are you thinking? We are just little maids, how can we have the qualifications to ask Master Hou to comfort Madam? Isn't this obviously overstepping?"

"Then what do you mean? We don't care about the lady? Just look at her sad?"

As soon as she said this, Yuer and Xiaoju became silent.

After a long time, Yu'er said, "Right now we can only play by ear, after a while, you go back to Madam and serve her, see how she is, if she is really uncomfortable, you can try to comfort her, if she behaves If nothing happened, you pretend you don’t know anything.”

"Okay." Xiaoju and Xiaocui agreed together.

Yu'er sighed for a while, "It's a pity that I can't serve Madam now, otherwise I can still talk to Madam, after all, I have been here a little longer than you, and spent a little longer with Madam."

"Why don't you tell us about the affairs of the mansion and Madam's situation, so we can serve Madam after we know something?" Xiaoju asked seriously.

Yu'er glanced at the two of them, and told them some things about the Hou Mansion, and about Lu Wanqiu.

……

Lu Wanqiu waited for a whole day but did not wait for Yan Junyi's action. He never came to look for her, nor did he send anyone to do anything, as if he didn't hear what she said yesterday at all.

Or in other words, he didn't care at all whether she was coaxing Sun Qiaoqiao or supporting Sun Qiaoqiao.

Or, he had actually annoyed Sun Qiaoqiao yesterday, but because he cared about Sun Qiaoqiao's face, he didn't drive her away.

All kinds of guesses are just guesses, Lu Wanqiu has not been confirmed today.

But the next day, she was unexpectedly confirmed.

The next day, after being served and washed, Xiao Cui suddenly said to her, "Madam, do you know? The four maids around Miss Sun were severely punished by Lord Hou."

"You said that the four maids around her were severely punished?"

"Yes."

"what is the reason?"

"Master Hou said that they, as servant girls in the mansion, let the serving master do as he pleases, damn it!"

"Let the serving master do as he pleases?" She seemed a little confused.

"Ms. Sun wanted to kill Yu'er. Master Hou directly blamed the maids and punished them severely."

He didn't deal with Sun Qiaoqiao, but severely punished the maid beside her, so he really annoyed Sun Qiaoqiao, but he didn't want to refute her face, did he deliberately knock the mountain in front of her?
He really can do this.

Lu Wanqiu nodded, then fell silent.

Seeing that she stopped asking, Xiao Cui couldn't help but said, "Ma'am, do you know what kind of heavy punishment they received?"

"Oh, what kind of heavy punishment did you receive?" She didn't care about it, but Xiaocui asked deliberately, so she asked casually.

Xiaocui blinked, and said quietly, "Master Hou punished them with ten sticks, and..."

"Ten sticks isn't very serious, is it?" Before she finished speaking, Lu Wanqiu answered.

"Ten sticks are naturally not heavy, but they were not only punished with ten sticks, they were also punished with pulling out their tongues."

"What?" Lu Wanqiu was extremely shocked.

"You said their tongues were pulled out?"

"Yes." Xiao Cui replied, "The servants only found out about this not long ago."

"After they were tortured with sticks yesterday, they were drugged and their tongues were pulled out."

"Putting out the tongue is usually done raw, right? Do you still administer medicine to relieve the pain?"

"Or maybe it's too cruel to pull it out, and the people in the family used medicine to pull it out." She didn't understand this.

Lu Wanqiu narrowed her eyes, and said in a deep voice, "Now you should know what kind of temper Hou Ye is? He is not a kind person, you better not make any mistakes, otherwise I can't protect you."

Xiao Cui shuddered, and said in a low voice, "Madam, the servants must try their best not to make mistakes."

Seeing how terrified she was, Lu Wanqiu said in a low voice, "As long as you don't make big mistakes, you will be fine. The reason why these maids were severely punished is because they obeyed Miss Sun's words and killed the maids around me. ring."

"If you make a mistake but have a clear conscience, the Marquis will not punish you severely."

"Thank you for reminding me, Ma'am, I'll save you slaves."

Lu Wanqiu didn't say much about this matter, but said, "The maids have been tortured, and now they are afraid to cultivate themselves, so do you know who will serve Ms. Sun?"

"This... I have never inquired about it." Xiaocui shook her head.
