Chapter 199 Protecting the daughter incapably

Before Sun Meiniang replied, Ding Rong’s wife shouted, “What nonsense are you talking about? You don’t sling mud at me!” Damn, where exactly did the girl hear about it!

Madam Luo glanced at Ding Rong’s wife and said in a deep voice, “Ding Rong’s wife, I have already said that Yi is one of the masters of Luo’s Family. Don’t rely on your condescending position and think nothing of her. No matter how young and helpless she is, she is the master. While no matter how old you are and how many backers you have, you are a servant. If you don’t know the difference between the master and the servant, and call Third Miss’s name directly or speak to her disrespectfully next time, you’ll be sent to your son’s home to enjoy your retired life. There is not short of a servant like you in Luo’s Mansion!”

Sun Meiniang’s eyebrows throbbed. Madam Luo had not managed everything of Luo’s Mansion in the past two years, and handed over all of power to Sun Meiniang. Most of Sun Meiniang’s orders were sent by Ding Rong’s wife. Madam Luo intentionally dismissed Ding Rong’s wife now. Did it mean that Madam Luo also wanted to weaken Sun Meiniang’s power? Madam Luo mentioned “backers”. Wasn’t it an insinuation to Sun Meiniang? Sun Meiniang glared at Luo Chuangu. Before today, if Madam Luo had little disagreement with Sun Meiniang, Luo Chuangu always supported Sun Meiniang. But this time, Luo Chuangu didn’t even lift his eyelids.

Ding Rong’s wife turned red in the face. She bowed and pleaded, “I got a good lesson from you, Madam. I will pay more attention to this etiquette, but I really can’t stand to hear that Third Miss always makes insinuating remarks about Second Mistress Luo. Third Miss is the master, and I will treat her with respect in the future. However, she is too impolite and lacking in self-respect. Second Mistress is her elder, and there are many rules in Instructions of Luo’s Family showing that juniors should respect elders’ disciplines. But Third Miss said that Second Mistress took abortifacient. Isn’t a scandalous remark about Second Mistress?”

He Danggui looked surprised and asked Luo Chuangu, “Second Uncle, don’t you know that Second Aunt took abortifacient? In fact, Second Aunt inquired my mom about what kind of abortifacient could not hurt the body and could deal with the fetus quickly. So, I know that Second Aunt turned out to take medicine to miscarry her fetus. I remember she telling my mom that you let her have an abortion!” Luo Chuangu hesitated and opened his mouth. But he didn’t answer.

Madam Luo immediately asked in a deep voice, “When did this happen?” She thought, “Sun Meiniang also had an abortion. Why have I never heard about it?”

He Danggui looked up and recalled for a moment. Then she answered, “It maybe happened four years ago. I was just taken back to my mother’s side from a farm and lived in the ‘He’s House’ which was outside Luo’s Mansion. One day, I heard that some relatives of Luo’s Mansion came to visit from maids. And I saw a middle-aged woman who dressed up as a servant through a crack in the door. She kept holding my mother’s hands and muttering. As you know, I was less than five years old when I left Luo’s Mansion. I just had a vague impression of family members except this middle-aged woman. I immediately recognized her as my Second Aunt and heard a conversation between her and my mother.”

Feng Yang snorted with his nose. He said, “Is that impressive? It’s just an ordinary middle-aged aunt with her wrinkled face after taking off makeup.” Although he hummed quickly, he was heard by Sun Meiniang. Sun Meiniang was so angry and nearly lost her temper.

He Danggui said with a smile, “I am deeply impressed with Second Aunt not because of her appearance, but for her unusual style. ‘Madness’ is the most appropriate word to describe her. When I was three years old, Fourth Sister and I were carried by our wet nurses to let the elders watch. Halfway through the watching, some guests came to visit. Then the adults went to greet guests and put Fourth Sister and I on the same bed for a nap. There was no reason that two small cuts on the face of Fourth Sister after waking up. The wet nurse of Fourth Sister didn’t know what happened, and she was afraid that the master would blame her. So, she took Fourth Sister and got her first to Second Aunt for complaining. She said that I scratched the face of Fourth Sister. Do you still have an impression of what happened afterwards, Madam Luo?”

Madam Luo nodded, and she did have little impression on it. It had made a pretty big racket at home at that time, and almost everyone was talking about it during that time. Actually, the two small cuts on Shao’s face had been examined by herself. They were so light and shallow small cuts that would be healed in recent two days, and wouldn’t leave scars.

At that time, Sun Meiniang and Chuanxiong were still good friends. Although they were not as good as when they went to school in the past, they were also friendly sisters who often drank tea and embroidered together. And the “murderer” was a three-year-old child who knew nothing. So, after hearing about this matter, many people advised Sun Meiniang that children were inevitably naughty. Fortunately, the consequence was not so serious. Just let it go and didn’t put the children together to play in the future. Sun Meiniang usually didn’t pay more attention to her little daughter, Shao. Most of the time, she left the baby to the wet nurse. But this time, Sun Meiniang’s mother’s love suddenly burst out. She went crazy and blamed Chuanxiong, the mother of Yi. She said she must seek justice for her daughter.

Madam Luo remembered that Sun Meiniang went to Chuanxiong’s room with a pair of scissors next day. Sun Meiniang had disheveling hair and bathing tears on her face. She wild cut for a while in Chuanxiong’s room. She cut the door curtains, tablecloths, bed curtains, and clothes in the cabinet into pieces of waste, leaving the ground covered with rags. Chuanxiong was a person who was cowardly and silent. She apologized slowly. When she realized that Sun Meiniang was too angry to receive apology, she run away in a hurry and even had no time to care about Yi in the cradle of the inner room.

Yi’s wet nurse had never seen anything like it, and she ran out with a scream. The scream woke up sleeping Yi and made her cry. The cry attracted the attention of Sun Meiniang, who was taking a sharp scissors with red eyes. She walked to the inner room step by step.

Things were going to develop in an unexpected direction. But at this time, Miss Ji, who was visiting other maids to take flowers, ran into this scene exactly. She cleverly designed to attract attention of Sun Meiniang, and then waited for a chance to hold Yi. Then, she turned and ran quickly to Fu Shou Yard. Sun Meiniang seemed to be possessed. She was holding a scissors to run after Miss Ji, until they were in front of Madam Luo. Chuanxiong was taking refuge and complaining to Madam Luo. And she hid behind Madam Luo for shelter when she saw Sun Meiniang and her scissors appearing again.

Finally, Madam Luo stood up to conciliate and asked Chuanxiong to made amends with pouring tea. This matter was even, no one was allowed to mention it again. Sun Meiniang was still angry. She took a sip of tea which was offered by Chuanxiong, but still wasn’t satisfied. So, she thrown the scissors at the foot of Chuanxiong and ordered Chuanxiong to cut Yi’s nails. Then Yi would stop scratching all around. Chuanxiong picked up scissors and took over Yi, who was crying, from Miss Ji’s arms. She caught her young hands and cut those little nails that were almost impossible to cut one by one.

However, after cutting carefully, Sun Meiniang, who was in charge of the work beside them, was still not satisfied. Sun Meiniang insisted on cutting again, so honest Chuanxiong did it again. After cutting nails, Chuanxiong took them to Sun Meiniang for examination. But Sun Meiniang still thought those little nails which were weaker than the petals of plum blossom were too long. She scolded Chuanxiong for cutting too carelessly and without sincerity to apologize. She ordered Chuanxiong to cut it again. If Chuanxiong could not cut well, she would do it by herself to repair those cheap claws that scratched others.

Chuanxiong tremblingly began to cut for the third time, but what else could be cut off when the broad and thick blade of scissors brushed the tender and bare little fingers? Under the strict eyes of Sun Meiniang, Chuanxiong cut down deeply... Chuanxiong thought that she had been abandoned by her husband and had no future. She would spend the rest of life in natal family. Her father died one year ago, and her mother was mean and ungrateful. It would be better for her aunt to treat her. She would inevitably have to ask for a living with Second Sister-in-law, so she couldn’t offend Sun Meiniang. She had to calm Sun Meiniang’s anger. Sun Meiniang’s daughter was “disfigured”. It was her daughter who started all the trouble.

Thinking of this, Chuanxiong cut the flesh where was joint of a pink nail deeply. After she cut, the fingertip began to ooze out of blood slowly. Chuanxiong was extremely distressed. But she found that Sun Meiniang was satisfied when she looked up. Chuanxiong suddenly had a moment of enlightenment that Sun Meiniang was not afraid that Yi’s nails were too long to scratch other people later. Instead, Sun Meiniang wanted Yi to get “corporal punishment”!

Chuanxiong thought for a while. The face of Sun Meiniang’s daughter was hurt, and now they wanted her daughter to compensate with hands. Although it was too much to force a baby, Sun Meiniang was still angry. And Sun Meiniang was the mother of a little daughter who was “disfigured”. The feeling could be understood that the murderer must be punished in any ways. What’s more, she and her daughter were going to live in Luo’s Family in the future. They all counted on Second Sister-in-law to deal with their basic necessities of life in every aspect. And even Yi’s future marriage would have to go through Second Sister-in-law... Now that she just needed to cut a little bit of Yi’s skin, and Sun Meiniang would calm her anger...

Chuanxiong bit her teeth and cut her daughter’s nails again. Just cut a little skin, cut a little skin… Clicks...

After cutting four times, the lovely snow-white little hands of Yi were cut out of five small fingers that oozed out of blood. In a glance, the bloody one was particularly shocking. Yi burst into tears in pain and cried out loud, which made Chuanxiong’s heart pained. But Chuanxiong still loosed her little hand which had been soaked in blood, and gritted her teeth to grab the other little hand.

Madam Luo couldn’t stand it anymore firstly. She stopped Chuanxiong from cutting the other hand, and then she snapped at Sun Meiniang. She asked Sun Meiniang not to mention it again. Just turn this page over. The family made for a good life together and didn’t allowed to leave any problem in everybody’s hearts. Sun Meiniang simply tied up her loose hair, and became the elegant young woman as usual. She bowed to Madam Luo and left.

Under the eyes of Madam Luo’s slight apology and Miss Ji’s sympathy, Chuanxiong held the little hand of her daughter, which was too painful to curl or straight, and gurgled out blood, she burst into tears. She blamed herself that she had a flabby character. Since she couldn’t protect her daughter, she should not act rashly to take her daughter out of He’s Family. At least, her daughter was a miss there, and the only one in He’s Family. Her daughter’s life wouldn’t be too bad even if she lived without her mother. Unlike now, many other people in Luo’s Family always said that Yi had delayed her mother’s future; Yi was a burden and a person with bad luck; Yi was not as good as a first-class maid with status and dignity. Luo Chuanxiong thought, she brought all of the hurt to her daughter! She was a miserable person, and even her daughter had become a miserable person!

Yi heard the crying of her mother, so she cried even more. The scene of mother and daughter cried together made Madam Luo shake her head and sigh. Since then, there had been irreparable cracks between Chuanxiong and Sun Meiniang, the former friends. Apart from the greetings in public, they would almost say nothing.

Madam Luo doubted that Sun Meiniang and Chuanxiong already had nothing to say at home. How could Sun Meiniang go to Chuanxiong and He Fu’s house privately?

Feng Yang was very interested in the “scratching face incident”, which was mentioned by He Danggui. He asked, “Sister He, what happened after you scratched her face? Ha-ha, I didn’t expect that you were so fierce when you were just more than three years old. No wonder you treat me, well, nothing.”

He Danggui rolled her eyes to Feng Yang and said, “I never said that I scratched the face of my Fourth Sister. My story has the next set.”

“The next set?” Feng Yang smiled and said, “Go ahead. I’m all ears.”

He Danggui put up an index finger and playfully said, “The next set is called ‘The real murderer came out, who concealed the truth and chased the wet nurse’.”
