Chapter 100 Second Aunt Was Kicked Out of the House
His expression was a little calmer than when he came. He listened silently to what Zhang said before he responded.
"I know that I am of humble status, so I dare not ask for anything without reason. But the Third Miss is still the daughter of the Lord, a girl from the Jiang Mansion. Even if the Second Madam hates me and wants to scold me, she should not be implicated."
Although his tone was not particularly strong, it was already impressive compared to before.
Zhang was so angry that her eyes widened. She reached out and twisted Aunt Yang's arm several times, which hurt so much that tears were welling up in her eyes. Seeing this, Zhang finally felt relieved and said with a cold snort.
"You are just as wicked as that bastard Hai. Sooner or later, I will make you suffer a fate worse than death!"
The irony in the words made Aunt Yang worry. It wasn't about herself, but about Hai. She hadn't been seen since she fell ill last time. She had gone to see her twice and was rejected. She didn't know how she was doing now.
Could it be that her illness is also related to the Second Madam?
Thinking of this, no matter how much Zhang ridiculed her, she didn't take it to heart. She waited until she got home. As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Jiang Huaishan and Jiang Shishu, father and daughter, who were about to go out. They both looked a little anxious.
As soon as they saw Aunt Yang returning, their worries were alleviated a little.
"How is it? Is everything okay at the Marquis' Mansion?"
"Master, rest assured, the child has been born safely. She is a beautiful girl. I heard that the eldest young master of the Wang family named her Youyi. Everyone likes her very much."
Because of the birth of this child, Jiang Huaishan's seniority suddenly became higher.
After all, he was a great-aunt, so he became happy as well and patted Aunt Yang's arm and said.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Unfortunately, she touched the place that Second Madam Zhang had pinched just now, and she shrank in pain. Jiang Huaishan felt strange and asked quickly.
"what happened?"
This time, Aunt Yang no longer swallowed her anger as she did before, but spoke directly.
"The Second Madam seemed dissatisfied. She first insulted me, and then she kept talking to the Third Madam. I was so angry that I said a few words to her. She was so angry that she pinched my hand a few times. The place where the Master touched just now was exactly there."
After saying that, he pulled up his sleeves, and sure enough, there were redness, swelling, and some bruises on them.
Jiang Shishu stepped forward to support Aunt Yang with a distressed look on her face. She was also shocked that Aunt Yang would speak like this today, but compared to the time when she was punished to kneel down in front of broken porcelain pieces and dared not speak, this was a way to protect herself, which was considered a lot of progress, so she couldn't help but join in.
"If Second Aunt is dissatisfied with me, just go find me. Every time, she targets Aunt. Last time, she instigated Grandmother to punish Aunt by making her kneel down and break porcelain pieces. This time, she pinched her without any reason. What do you want to do to let us go?"
Hearing this, Jiang Huaishan's eyes showed some shock. He pulled Aunt Yang and asked worriedly.
"You also knelt on the broken porcelain pieces? When did that happen?"
“It was when my daughter first followed my father and elder sister to the Marquis Wenyuan’s Mansion. But my aunt was afraid that the matter would get out of hand and cause discord in the family, so she didn’t say anything. Who knew that Second Aunt would still not let it go today, so my daughter didn’t intend to endure it any longer.” After all, Jiang Shishu had lived in the princess’s mansion for several months, so she knew how to choose the right time to speak and do things. With new wounds and old grudges, it would be strange if Second Aunt didn’t suffer!
As expected, Jiang Huaishan looked at Second Madam Zhang with a serious expression, his eyes showing more sharpness, and then he asked in a deep voice.
"Second brother's wife, do you recognize her?"
Zhang was also caught off guard. She had never expected that the usually docile Aunt Yang and the Third Miss would team up to embarrass her, so she even forgot to make excuses for a moment.
Jiang Huaishan saw through her guilty look at once. After years of handling affairs, if he didn't even have this kind of consideration for others, how could he get into the court?
So, the more I thought about it, the angrier I got, so I yelled.
"Zhang, do you really think you are the one who can show off your power and make decisions here?"
This one sentence frightened her so much that she trembled and then her legs went weak.
"I... I'm not. Big brother, don't listen to them. How can these two lowly bastards tell the truth? They are just instigated by the eldest girl to target me. You must..."
Before she could finish her words, she was stopped by Jiang Huaishan.
There was no longer the pity and respect in his eyes as before, and he then gave instructions to the housekeeper beside him.
"Go, go to Jinfang Courtyard and pack up the Second Madam's things. If she is still in this house tomorrow morning, all of you will be driven out with her!"
Jiang Huaishan used to take Zhang's loyalty to his brother into consideration, so he always treated her with courtesy.
But she first let her own daughter snatch the marriage, and then she treated the people in his backyard cruelly and harshly. Even though she was just a concubine, she was still a person in his yard. She was overreaching.
Besides, as long as she was around, his mother was always instigated to do stupid things. For example, when a baby was born in the Wenyuan Marquis's mansion, they invited Aunt Yang to go over. He could understand the reason, but it would be unreasonable for Zhang to go along!
Therefore, thinking about the past and what happened today, he could no longer bear it.
Even if the house outside had not been prepared yet, it didn't matter. She could stay in an inn if she wanted, or rent a house if she couldn't. Anyway, he couldn't keep this trouble at home any longer. So her serious tone and cold attitude scared everyone present.
Including the second wife, Zhang, who widened her eyes, pointed at Jiang Huaishan and shouted angrily.
"You, you can't chase me away! This is my home!"
"Your home? This is the Zongzheng Mansion, where I, Jiang Huaishan, and the women in the backyard live. You are just my second brother's wife. My second brother and I have separated a few years ago. I just let you stay until now because I felt sorry for your family. Now it seems that my kindness is taken for granted. Since you like to make decisions, then go to a place where you can make decisions. I don't welcome you in the Zongzheng Mansion. Get out!"
The housekeeper understood immediately when her eyes swept over it.
If they didn't pack the Second Madam's luggage, they would have to pack their own luggage, and naturally they would run faster than anyone else. Zhang was scolded so badly that she had no chance to fight back and could only sit on the ground and act like an idiot.
Unfortunately, Jiang Huaishan was not going to fall for it anymore. He asked someone to call over a few strong maids and immediately drove the second lady out.
By the time Zhang reacted, she and Qi Mama, who was serving her, were thrown out of the house. Fortunately, it was already night, so there were not many people at the door. However, the sound of her crying and wiping tears still made some of the servants around her come out to watch the fun.
