Glory in Troubled Times: The Empress' Growth Path

Chapter 9 Punish Wang Ting
Boss Zhao, who had been slapped by Mrs. Zhao, froze in place, and then began to howl.

"Mother, it's fine if you don't turn to me! Why do you still beat me! Do you dislike me..."

"Shut up! Get the hell out of here! Wang Ting, tell everyone in the courtyard to wait at my door, and then tell Mrs. Wang to lock up all the rooms!"

The second son of the Zhao family saw that his mother was serious, and immediately restrained himself a lot, and stood upright in the room.

Then Wang Ting backed out obediently, and hurriedly summoned all the servants in the yard.

Everyone in the courtyard looked at the mistress's wife, who had not combed her hair today, and her face was ashen, sitting outside the house angrily, and a group of people whispered below, discussing what might have happened.

Wang Ting took a small heater and presented it to Mrs. Zhao, and when she approached Mrs. Zhao, she faintly exuded a faint fragrance.

Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but look at her a few more times, but there were so many people in the courtyard that she couldn't be sure who the scent was coming from.

Mrs. Zhao stood up and inspected the servants in the courtyard, but no one dared to speak loudly.

Mrs. Zhao said in a soft voice: "I forgot where I put my chalcedony bead chain. If someone sees it, there will be a lot of rewards."

Although the servants below did not blow up the pot, they still couldn't help discussing.

"I never saw my lady's chalcedony necklace leave me."

"No, I carry it with me every day and never leave it."

"Madam, if something is missing, shouldn't you ask Wang Ting first?"

Wang Ting heard a few talkative servants talking about her, and felt bad. Madam usually doesn't treat her very much. It's also because the master often goes out and is not at home. If the master is at home, it would be wrong to do anything by herself.

Sullenly, he gouged out those servants a few times.

The change in Wang Ting's face naturally couldn't escape Mrs. Zhao's eyes. She couldn't find chalcedony at first, but her heart felt like a stone was blocked. When she thought about how often this girl was domineering in front of other servants, she didn't know Could it be that the master is backing up at the back? Thinking of this, Mrs. Zhao's complexion became unkind again.

The servants who had been whispering were now as quiet as chickens.

"Mother! It's my eldest brother who stole my Yunpian cake. When I woke up in the morning, I saw the residue around his mouth, and I can still smell the plum blossom scent of the cake!"

"I didn't eat it! Are you crazy about pastries!"

"Mother, if you don't believe me, if you smell it carefully, there is a faint fragrance of plum blossoms!"

Everyone in the courtyard was at a loss for a moment, they were not talking about the lady's necklace, but why the cakes of the two young masters were involved.

"It does have a faint plum scent."

Mrs. Wang said affirmatively, "When the old man can still hunt, when the plum blossoms are in bloom, the sky will be filled with such a delicate fragrance, there is nothing wrong with it."

Everyone knows that Mrs. Wang has the ability to hunt, and there is such a smell in the air, many people have indeed smelled it.

Mrs. Zhao was a little angry, she lost her most beloved jewelry, but these two boys only wanted to eat!
Forget it, my dear, jewelry matters.

"Cakes are secondary. If you lose them, you can buy them again. If someone sees my chalcedony bead chain or the things in my jewelry box, he can choose whatever they want."

After everyone heard this, they gasped, who didn't know that their wife loves precious jewellery, and every time the master came back, he would pester him for one or two. After all these years, I don't know how many treasures are stored in that makeup box.

Hearing Madam's words, many people became enthusiastic, but because of Wang Ting's presence, no one knew her virtue, and they had to worry about how many grains of rice she had on her body. It was hard to guarantee that she would not snatch Madam's reward, and everyone became silent again. .

Seeing that everyone did not speak, Madam had no choice but to ask one by one.

"Wang Ya, have you ever seen Madam's chalcedony bead necklace?"

Wang Ya lowered her head and stared at her toes as usual, then glanced at Wang Ting who was asking questions, and shook her head vigorously.

"I see that you are getting more and more cunning, and dare to hide your wife's bead chain!"

When Mrs. Zhao heard this, she really wanted to rush up and tear her mouth apart. Before asking a few people, she just labeled her as a "private possession". No one would dare to tell the truth.

Wang Ting thought that her attitude was not tough enough and she should show more prestige, so she rushed forward and gave Wang Ya a big mouth.

Mrs. Zhao was stunned. Is this Wang Ting treating herself like air?

Wang Ya was slapped on the ground, uncharacteristically did not cry, and shouted with tears in her eyes, "Sister Wang Ting, we dare not, but you follow Madam every day, how many beads does Madam have? How do we know?" many!"

Everyone rushed to help Wang Ya, and the way they looked at Wang Ting could eat her up.

"Wang Ting, Madam hasn't spoken yet, and things haven't been figured out yet, what are you doing to embarrass a child?"

"That is, who can be closer to Madam than her on weekdays."

Mrs. Zhao had a headache. She always boasted that Wang Ting couldn't make any waves, but it's hard to guarantee that after a long time, she really won't do anything.

The second son of the Zhao family ignored the little commotion outside the door, but was still struggling with the smell of plum blossoms if he ate the cakes secretly. Obviously, the smell of plum blossoms here is stronger than that in his own house.

The two pushed each other, cursed and left the wife's bedroom.

If they don't leave, they will be late for school.

"I'll settle the score with you after school!"

Zhao Boss and Zhao Lao Er made funny faces at each other to provoke each other, completely ignoring Mrs. Zhao's meeting.

Boss Zhao was so angry that he raised his foot and was about to kick the second child, but the second child nimbly dodged and shook Boss Zhao, and he lost his balance and bumped into Wang Ting firmly.

"Ouch!" "Dang!"

When Wang Ting and Boss Zhao fell down, the jade pendant Hua Qiong put in Wang Ting's clothes was thrown out in full view.

"Jade pendant! It's the jade pendant my father gave me!"

"Okay, second child, you and Wang Ting colluded to find trouble for me!"

"No! Young master, I don't know! It's not me!"

Boss Zhao picked up the jade pendant on the ground and wiped it carefully, and found that there were tiny cracks on the jade pendant. He was so angry that he couldn't tell, so he had to run to Mrs. Zhao aggrieved, and let his mother decide for him.

Everyone immediately discussed.

"The young master lost the jade pendant on Wang Ting's body, so it's hard to guarantee that Madam's chalcedony bead chain was also taken by her."

"This is not proper darkness under the lights."

"Relying on the trust of the master and his wife to act as a dominator, I must have reaped a lot of benefits."

These words ran into Mrs. Zhao's ears verbatim, and with an order, Wang Ting was tied up.

"Mother, look! This was found from Wang Ting's bedding."

Zhao Laoer didn't know when he went to Wang Ting's bedding to make a fuss, only to see a few translucent beads lying quietly in his palm.

Mrs. Zhao was furious, how could her most beloved chalcedony necklace become like this!
"And the rest of the beads! Say!"

Wang Ting had already fallen to the ground at this time. Although she was tied up, she still struggled to crawl towards Mrs. Zhao, trembling and speaking incoherently: "Madam, I didn't take it! No!"

Snapped!A loud slap came from Wang Ting's face!

"Bitch! How dare I treat you well! How dare you steal something that doesn't belong to you! Lock her up in the woodshed, starve her for three days, and see if she tells the truth!"

"Ma'am! It's not good!"

"what happened again?"

I saw a servant bring over the big bucket from the well, and there was a witch-gu thatched man inside, with a chalcedony bead embedded in it.

"The little one just went to fetch water to wash up for the two young masters, when he found this dirty thing."

"Sure! Wang Ting, very good!" Mrs. Zhao laughed back angrily, "Now that a wicked slave like you is born in the family, I'm afraid it won't work if I don't report it to the officials!"

Wang Ting was momentarily bewildered, tearing up, "Ma'am, it's really not me, I don't know!"

Everyone looked at Wang Ting's appearance and didn't feel pitiful. From the beginning until now, there was no one who spoke for her.

She should have been punished long ago!
