220 Are You Going to Fight?
“Tell the Young Madam that I won’t be coming back for dinner. If there’s anything in the residence, let the Young Madam make the decision.” Zhao Hongwei walked toward the door. Little did he know that all the concubines were tightly guarded in their own courtyards at this moment. No one was allowed to come out to report. The bold ones who sent servant girls out had their legs broken and hung on the peach tree as a warning to others. For a moment, all the concubines finally realized the danger. The residence was probably going to change.
For a time, the Zhao family was in a state of panic.
Early the next morning, before the sky had even brightened, there were maidservants knocking on the door one by one. The concubines still wanted to claim that they were sick, but did they not see who the other party was? Whenever they said that they had some kind of illness, in less than half an hour, the illness would definitely act up. Whatever they said would actually happen. The most exaggerated thing was that a concubine said that her mother had passed away and her father was seriously ill, and her younger brother and sister were about to be sold. She said that she wanted to go out and see her family. Who knew that in the afternoon, her family would send a letter saying that her father was seriously ill, her mother had passed away, her younger brother and sister were sold, and even the old sow at home had climbed up a tree and jumped down to commit suicide.
It was said that at that time, the concubine knelt down with every step she took as she walked towards the Young Madam’s room, her attitude extremely pious. Other than Xiao Meili, all the other concubines had seen that concubine cry and kneel all the way to admit her mistakes.
“What happened to them? Concubine Yuan, Concubine Wen, and even Concubine Xia did not mention anything when asked, but they were very respectful to Jiang Xi.” The concubines in the residence were all very curious, but they did not dare to provoke Jiang Xi. After all, they had already learned their lesson! They all followed Jiang Xi’s instructions obediently every day. They woke up earlier than chickens and went to bed later than dogs. At night, they had to receive Jiang Xi’s education.
For a time, the Zhao Residence’s harem was much quieter. How could it not be quiet? The group of people did not even want to talk when they got up from the pond. They were exhausted!
It was the first day of the month again. The Zhao family had to have dinner together on the first and fifteenth day of every month. Early in the morning, all of the ladies would rush into Xiao Meili’s courtyard and stand outside like wooden pillars, not daring to move.
“These concubines have not been seen for half a month and suddenly gathered at our Madam’s door. Could it be that they want to beat the Madam while the marquis is not back?” The maidservants were so scared that their legs went soft. More than ten concubines stood at the door, their faces dark and silent. They did not leave either. Was this a fight?
All the concubines thought, ‘Madam, can you get up earlier? Damn it, do we have to wake up so early to pay our respects? As the Madam, why aren’t you getting out of bed at this time? We are still waiting to pay our respects and serve you a meal!”
The servant girls waited for Xiao Meili to get out of bed and helped her to wash up before helping her out. Xiao Meili was recuperating in the residence and could not do anything. She was afraid that she would lose her dignity as the Madam of the house. However, when she went out, she was in a daze. What the hell? How did these concubines become so tanned and so much more muscular? They even lowered their heads in a respectful manner. What were they doing? Xiao Meili was a little flustered.
However, this was only the beginning.
“Madam, your face is injured. You should drink more chicken soup. It’s good for your recovery.” Concubine Wan obediently served Xiao Meili a large bowl of chicken soup.
“Madam, the old people always say that you should eat more. You should eat more of these pork trotters so that your leg can recover faster.” Concubine Yuan immediately picked up a big bowl and gave Xiao Meili the biggest pig trotter.
“Madam, eat the vegetables.”
“Madam, you should eat two more bowls of rice…”
“The meat is not bad. It is not easy to get sick after eating it. When I was young, my mother said this…”
“Madam, this is good stuff. These lamb testicles are not easy to get. It can only be encountered but not sought. You should eat two more.”
“Madam, are you dissatisfied with us? We won’t get up if you don’t eat.” As soon as Concubine Wu’s voice fell, all the concubines in the room knelt on the ground, showing the back of their heads, as if Xiao Meili was dissatisfied with them.
Xiao Meili’s face was as black as charcoal. In the past, Zhao Hongwei had insisted on having a meal with everyone, so he had set up a big table that could seat more than 20 people. However, only she and Jiang Xi were at the table now!
On the other side, Jiang Xi’s expression did not change at all. She calmly ate her porridge and drank her soup. Sometimes, when she glanced at the concubines behind her, their hands would tremble.
