Chapter 100 The Marquis's Commoner Wife 10
The old lady in the backyard was really angry when she learned that her son had never favored several concubines at once, and she was so angry that she wanted to make a scene.

As soon as the Marquis of Zhennan went to attend the morning court, a maid came to inform Ning Yan that she had to wake up early and late every day from now on. Previously, it was because she had just entered the mansion and gave her some time to adapt. Now she has almost adapted and it is time for her to learn the rules.

It sounds nice, but it's not the case at all. On the first day after their marriage, Han Yongjin killed two maids with a stick, which scared everyone in Shou'an Hall.

Ning Yan was still sleeping when the maid came to pass on the message. Qiu Sheng stopped her outside and said, "Sister Xiangyun, wait a moment. Madam hasn't woken up yet. When she wakes up, we will tell Madam."

Xiangyun is a newly promoted maid. After all, all the maids around the old lady have been replaced. She did not witness the incident where the marquis beat the maid to death on the spot, so she only has the old lady in her heart.

Besides, filial piety is the most important virtue. The current emperor governs the world with filial piety. How dare you disobey the old lady's orders?

"The old lady wants to invite you, Qiu Sheng, do you dare to stop her?"

Qiu Sheng and Dong Xiao were not afraid at all. They smiled and blocked Xiang Yun. "Sister Xiang Yun, why do you think the old lady suddenly had four maids and four second-class maids?"

Xiangyun said contemptuously: "Of course, the elder sister was assigned by the old lady to be the general's concubine!"

The maidservant beside the old lady hinted to the newly promoted maids that if any of them could catch the Marquis's eye, they would be asked to serve him.

Not to mention that the Marquis is deeply favored by the Emperor and has a bright future. His looks alone are unmatched. If she were to have the honor of serving the Marquis, she would be willing to die for it.

Qiu Sheng's expression remained unchanged, and he continued with a smile: "There were only four people who were appointed by the old lady to be concubines, and one of them even became Lie Feng's principal wife. Where are the other three maids?"

Xiangyun bit her lip. Could there be something else going on here?

Otherwise, there would be no need for Qiu Sheng to mention this little bitch specifically.

But she was not stupid after all. "Then please tell Madam that I have something else to do, so I will go back first."

Watching Xiangyun's back as she left, Dong Xiao spat fiercely on the ground, "Bah, little bitch, you dare to covet our Marquis just because you're pretty. How can the Marquis be interested in anyone else when he already has a wife?"

"Well, be quiet and don't wake up the lady. When the Marquis comes back, don't forget to report her!"

Brainless thing! Everyone in the mansion is very honest now. Even though the madam is not in charge of the household, all the people in charge are the old lady's people. But who dares to neglect the madam?

Unless they don't want to live!

Just wait, one day it might be her turn to be beaten to death!
Dong Xiao: "Okay, maybe we can even get a reward from the Marquis."

Before they were assigned to be with the Madam, they were worried that the Madam would be difficult to serve. In that case, it would be better for them to live a comfortable life in a place like the sewing room and the flower room.

After arriving, they discovered that the lady was the easiest to serve. She had a good temper and was generous. Rewards were given every now and then. Naturally, they had to protect such a good master.

So what if the old lady summoned him? If the lady didn't go, could she still send someone to rob him?

Ning Yan had become accustomed to sleeping until noon every day, washing up after waking up, and then having lunch. If she didn't want to stay at home in the afternoon, she would take her maid out shopping and come back after two hours.

Especially in the past two days, she has been running outside frequently, because the Ning family has moved to the city and the snack shop is about to open, so she naturally wants to join in the fun and give some random ideas, mainly to cause trouble for her family.

While Madam was washing up, Qiu Sheng repeated Xiang Yun's words, "Madam, do you want to go over now?"

Ning Yan waved her hand: "No, I have to wake up at dawn and dusk. It's already noon, it's not in accordance with the rules. I'll go at dusk."

She did what she said and spent half a day helping her family buy furniture in the afternoon. She returned home before dusk and then went to the old lady's courtyard to pay her respects obediently.

The old lady was furious when she saw Ning Yan. She asked around the capital to find out which daughter-in-law was like hers. She had to wait from morning to night just to pay her respects. Was she really not afraid that the Han family would divorce her? "Mother-in-law, your daughter-in-law pays her respects!"

“Ning, now that you are my Han family’s wife, you must abide by the rules of the mansion.

The Zhennan Marquis's Mansion is not a country village. Women cannot go out and show their faces all day long. You knowingly broke the law and are disrespectful to your mother-in-law. Today I will punish you to go to the Buddhist temple to pick up Buddha beans. It will be considered as accumulating blessings for you and Jin'er's future children."

After saying that, the old lady paid attention to Ning Yan's expression. Most people would be unhappy when they heard that they were punished, and those who were thin-skinned would even feel ashamed and angry. But Ning in front of her didn't even change her expression, and it was unknown whether she was pretending or not.

Ning Yan: Is this enough to make me feel ashamed and angry? What are you thinking!

She followed the maid obediently to the Buddhist temple. The maid handed her a large porcelain bowl with at least two pounds of beans in it. "Madam, let's start."

Ning Yan: My goodness, if she really wants to pour all these beans on the ground, she will have to wait until tomorrow to pick them all up.

Then she poured out all the beans in the bowl!

The beans fell to the ground and rolled around, and many of them rolled under the incense table.

Maid: ...Madam, do you really not want to sleep tonight?

Who pours beans like this?
You are not allowed to rest until you have picked up all the beans!

"Hey, can you help me?"

She really didn't know the maid's name, but there was nothing she could do as the turnover rate of the maids around the old lady was too high.

The maid forced a fake smile: "Madam, please speak."

She was promoted from a third-class maid in the mansion, and she was also a family girl, so she knew a lot of things. Therefore, she did not dare to offend the lady at all.

"Can you bring me a thicker mat? I want to sit down and pick beans. It's getting cold, and if I don't sit on a thicker mat, my body won't be able to bear it."

Maid: ...I just want to ask if anyone has seen someone picking Buddha beans while sitting?

Oh, it's her!
……

Today, Han Yongjin accompanied the emperor to the military camp and ate with the soldiers in the army. When they returned, it was already dark.

After entering the mansion, he went straight to the main courtyard, but the little girl who was supposed to be waiting for him was nowhere to be seen.

"Where's Madame?"

With a thump, Dong Xiao knelt on the ground. "My Lord, please go and save the Madam. This morning, Miss Xiangyun, who was with the Madam, came to pass on a message..."

This fellow exaggerated what happened in the morning and told the story of Xiangyun's misdeeds. The Marquis would definitely not have a good impression of her, and he would not have to worry about her climbing into the Marquis' bed in the future.

"I asked you where is your wife?"

Dong Xiao: Should I say that the Marquis is very cooperative?

"Madam went to pay respects to the old lady, but was punished by the old lady to go to the temple to pick up Buddha beans!"
