Red makeup against the world

Chapter 172
Tu's house, where Wen Han lives.

Tu Manfen was absent-mindedly reviewing the homework assigned by Mr. Ning, only thinking about the upcoming "Peony Fair" in her mind.That Xu Wanzhen had already entered and exited the Princess Mansion twice, and the invitation was even in her hands early in the morning.

As time got closer, she was full of self-confidence at the beginning, but now she is becoming more and more unsure.Yinping stood behind her, knowing that she had been troubled by the "Peony Fair" these days, so she stood with her hands down and did not dare to make a sound.

There was a noise outside the house, Tu Manfen frowned, and ordered: "Yinping, go and see, who is making the noise?"

Before Yin Ping stepped out of the room, Tu Manzhen's excited voice sounded outside the door: "Sister!" She said, wrapped in a gust of fragrant wind, and rushed into the room.

Tu Manfen was in a bad mood. Seeing her behavior like this, she taught her a lesson: "You are about to grow old, how can you be so rude! Have you forgotten all the etiquette rules taught by Mr. Ning?"

Tu Manzhen stuck out her tongue mischievously, her cheeks were a little rosy from running, her eyes were shining brightly, she looked at Tu Manfen coquettishly and said, "I know. My sister has good news here, don't my sister want to know?"

Tu Manfen's heart skipped a beat, could it be that the invitation to the Peony Flower Festival has arrived?She pursed her lips, looked at the scroll in her hand pretending to be nonchalant, and said lightly: "It's not just the invitation card for the Peony Flower Festival, it's worth your gaffe."

Seeing her elegant demeanor, Tu Manzhen admired her even more, as expected, she was flattered and humiliated.Leaning close to her, he said in a crisp voice: "How did my sister guess that? The Princess Mansion just sent someone to deliver it. I heard from Swift that the person who came was the housekeeper of the Princess Mansion. Grandma is meeting him in the flower hall."

Only then did Tu Manfen put down the book, and said, "What are you in a hurry for? After that person leaves, grandma will naturally send someone to deliver the invitation."

Tu Manzhen nodded, she ran for a while, said these words again, and felt thirsty.Glancing at Swift who followed her into the room, he shouted, "You have no eyesight! I've been here for so long, and you still haven't poured me tea."

At first, she felt that Swift was fine, her mouth was sweet and she could talk, which made her happy.After a long time, I realized that she is not good at doing things, far inferior to the previous Cuixiu.

Thinking of the scald that Cuixiu caused him, now he has become the Caisi of Qingzhu Garden, even if he wants to trouble her, he will never meet anyone.Tu Manzhen became more and more displeased with Swift.

When Swift was drunk by her, her body trembled, and she hurriedly poured a cup of tea from a table beside her.The pot of tea was brewed before Yinping, it was a bit cold when it was poured out, Swift was holding it in her hand, hesitating whether to give it to Tu Manzhen, and when she went to make hot tea again, she was afraid that she would not be able to wait, and she would be taught a lesson again.

When Tu Manzhen saw her flirting with Ai Ai, she couldn't help but get angry, grabbed the teacup and drank it, but spit it out with a "poof", cursing: "You bloody hoof! How dare you give me cold tea. "

As she said that, she threw the teacup over, and Swift dodged reflexively, only to hear a "bang", a good white porcelain teacup with green sticks fell to several pieces on the ground, and the shards flew everywhere.

Yuyan was so frightened that she knelt down with a "plop", and said with a pale face: "Miss, the maidservant made a mistake, the maidservant didn't do it on purpose."

Tu Manzhen didn't throw her at her, because she was angry and wanted to kick her.But Tu Manfen said in a cold voice: "Have you had enough trouble?" Just now she retracted her legs, stood aside angrily, and said aggrievedly: "Sister!"

"Yinping, clean up the broken pieces of the teacup." Tu Manfen ordered lightly: "Yuyan, go to the second lady's room and kneel for two hours, and you will be fined for two months."

Yinping took the dustpan in the room to clean up the debris carefully, and pulled Swift.Like waking up from a dream, Yuyan kowtowed repeatedly and said: "The servant thanked the eldest miss, the second miss!" If it wasn't for the eldest miss today, she would of course suffer a lot of flesh and blood.

Concealing the impatience welling up from the bottom of her heart, Tu Manfen said: "Everyone go down. Yinping guards the door, I have something to say to Second Miss."

After the two retreated, Tu Manfen looked at Tu Manzhen with a serious face: "Sister, I'm getting married soon, if I don't say these things, I won't have a chance to say them again in the future."

Tu Manzhen looked confused, she knew that her sister was angry today, but for some reason, she nodded her head.

"The servant girls, don't treat them as you please. Do the math, how many masters are there in our Tu family? And how many servants are there? The master's family is too harsh, forcing the servants to make trouble. It's not that it never happened. Don't tell me you forgot about the extermination case of the Sun family that Mr. Ning mentioned?" Tu Manfen said seriously.

Hearing the case of the Sun family, Tu Manzhen's back shivered, and she shuddered.

In the last years of the previous dynasty, the emperor was tyrannical, and his actions took effect.The Sun family is a dignitary at the time, Grand Master Sun controls the government and is domineering.The children in the family are arrogant, bullying men and women, prostitutes, wives and daughters to do all kinds of crimes, and there are often crying and screaming in the mansion.The slaves and servants in the mansion were even more miserable, and they were often blamed. Often, the servants who were killed were rolled up on straw mats and carried out of the corner door.

But one morning, people found that the Sun family's large mansion was quiet, and no servants came out to buy.The four doors were closed tightly, and the porter was nowhere to be seen, but there was blood dripping from the crack of the door.People thought it was strange, so they reported it to the official.

The governor of the capital brought people here, and as soon as he opened the door, a heavy object fell.Taking a closer look, it was the corpse of the second young master of the Sun family.His legs were severed to the knees, revealing white stubbles, two bloodstains winding behind him, his hands dripping with blood, but the place where he was killed was a sharp ax stuck in his vest.It was obvious that after his legs were broken, he crawled all the way to the gate, trying to ask for help, but his life was cut off by the axe.

The second young master of the Sun family was a tyrant in the capital that everyone hated. Seeing his tragic death, everyone was taken aback.Going further in, none of the servants and maidservants of the Sun family disappeared, and all the masters went up to Grand Master Sun and down to young children, and all of them died in the mansion.Cutting in half, cutting out the heart, gouging out the eyes, and even cutting the limbs into meat paste, and so on, the whole house became a vicious hell.

These officials have all seen big scenes, and they all vomited.I don't know what kind of scene was that bloody night last night, such a big movement, but the neighbors didn't even know about it?

It was only after an autopsy that it was found out that the master of the Sun family had been drugged during dinner and had no power to resist.How much resentment do these servants have towards them to do such a thing?
The government and the public were outraged by this case and ordered the arrest of the Sun family servant who committed the crime.But these servants have been planning this matter for a long time, and have already arranged a way out.Not long after, the court was in turmoil and wars broke out everywhere, and nothing happened.

Nowadays, this matter is often brought up by the mistresses of various families to teach their children and grandchildren not to treat the servants harshly.Tu Manzhen has an impulsive personality and often blames her subordinates. After hearing about it, Mr. Ning talked about it in class to warn Tu Manzhen.

Now when Tu Manfen mentioned it again, Tu Manzhen's back felt cold, and she said coquettishly, "Sister, I'm not that Sun's family."
