LOL! Is this scumbag waiting for the New Year to divorce?

Chapter 21 Teaching Xiaoman

Lu Chenshuang originally thought that the Madam and Nanny Xia would make a big move, but who knew that the two of them did not make any move for a long time.

However, Lu Chenshuang still had people keep an eye on Nanny Xia. She didn't believe that Nanny Xia could bear not to save Chen Youfu.

Li would occasionally send people to the woodshed to interrogate Chen Youfu. Chen Youfu could not tell the whereabouts of the jewelry, so he was in trouble and was often beaten to a pulp.

That day, Lu Chenshuang was about to rest when Xiaoman came in with a gossipy look on her face and whispered to Lu Chenshuang, "Miss, Miss, Nanny Xia is making some noise."

Lu Chenshuang also perked up after hearing this and quickly asked, "What's going on?"

Xiao Man said, "Didn't the young lady ask me to find someone reliable to keep an eye on her? Lai Bao just came over quietly and said that Nanny Xia had given money to the maid guarding the firewood room, and the two of them privately discussed letting Nanny Xia go in to see Chen Youfu at three o'clock in the morning."

Lu Chenshuang exclaimed upon hearing this: "It seems that Aunt Xia is quite capable."

Xiao Man curled her lips and said: "He is just an old slave who takes advantage of others' power.

When Guyu and I first came, she had someone slap us in the face, saying that we were from a poor family and didn’t know the rules and etiquette.”

Guyu was afraid that Lu Chenshuang would be unhappy after hearing this, so he pretended to cough twice to signal Xiaoman.

Unfortunately, Xiaoman was too straightforward and didn't understand Guyu's intention at all.

He even looked at Guyu and asked with concern: "Guyu, what's wrong with you? You must have caught a cold from being on night duty last night. Let me take care of the girl tonight."

Upon hearing this, Guyu looked at Xiaoman helplessly. Why can't this child read people's expressions?

Lu Chenshuang looked at Xiaoman with a helpless look, but her straightforward and cute look was quite likable.

But she was also afraid that if the girl left her side, she would be taken advantage of by others.

In the book, Xiaoman was able to drug Liu Anran, and although he was loyal to the original owner, there were also people who were behind this.

So I have to teach this girl how to behave.

Lu Chenshuang thought for a moment and said to Xiaoman: "Go to Ci'an Hall to find Haiyun and ask her to tell this to Hongyu's aunt."

Xiaoman asked in confusion: "Miss, why don't we tell the lady about this?"

Lu Chenshuang looked at Xiaoman helplessly and said, "If we go and tell the Madam directly, with her suspicious personality, what do you think she will think?

Will she think we are targeting Nanny Xia because we lost something?

After all, Nanny Xia is an old lady who has always been by her side.

And she will also think that these things were planned by us.

But it’s different if you tell Hongyu’s aunt.

Hongyu's aunt was also an old lady serving the old lady. She had been fighting openly and secretly with Aunt Xia for many years.

Now that Nanny Xia has fallen from power, Hongyu's aunt is the most favored person around the Dowager.

She wished she could step on Nanny Xia right away and make sure she would never be able to turn over in her life.

Even if the lady regretted it in the future, it would just be a play between two old servants competing for favor.

Besides, there might be some big surprise waiting for the lady tonight.

Xiaoman, you must think carefully before you do anything or speak in the future. If you are really confused and don’t know what to do, just remain cool and silent so that others can’t guess what you are thinking.

This way, you may get unexpected results when you do things in the future."

Xiaoman nodded when she heard that. She knew that she was not as insightful as Guyu. It was rare that the girl did not despise her and was willing to teach her.

So she nodded and said: "Don't worry, young lady, I will remember it and correct it in the future."

After Xiaoman left, Guyu looked at Lu Chenshuang and said, "Actually, Xiaoman has a pretty good personality, and many people in the mansion are willing to deal with her.

Instead, she was able to get a lot of information from other people."

Lu Chenshuang smiled and said, "Of course I know that. I'm just afraid that this girl will be too straightforward and be taken advantage of by others in the future, which will cause her to suffer a great loss.

Wouldn’t it be better if Xiaoman could pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger?

Guyu, you have always been very clear-headed, and I trust you very much, so you should give Xiaoman more guidance from time to time."

When Guyu heard that Lu Chenshuang valued her so much, she was very happy and quickly nodded in agreement.

In fact, even if Lu Chenshuang didn't remind her, she would have done so anyway, because she and Xiaoman are good sisters.

Xiaoman found Haiyun and briefly told her what happened.

Haiyun knew Xiaoman was simple-minded, so he asked, "Xiaoman, tell me the truth, what does Madam mean by this?"

Xiao Man just got Lu Chenshuang's instructions, and said calmly: "What can our Madam do? It's just the servants' business anyway, I didn't dare to disturb our Madam.

I'm just thinking about how you can save face in front of the lady, so I came here in the middle of the night to tell you.

Sister, if you are suspicious, just pretend I never said that."

Seeing Xiaoman's sincere expression, Haiyun quickly coaxed her in a low voice: "My dear sister, what are you talking about? I was just asking casually.

But after all, I am only a first-class maid, and I cannot gossip about this matter in front of the Madam. "

Xiaoman pretended to be indifferent and said, "Sister is right. After all, Nanny Xia is an old lady by the side of the Madam, and she has been with the Madam for the longest time.

Maybe one day the lady will remember her kindness again.

Unfortunately, there is no one around the lady who can replace Nanny Xia.

Okay, I won't gossip with my sister anymore, our girl is still waiting for me to serve her."

After saying that, Xiaoman turned around and left.

Xiaoman was also wondering whether Haiyun could understand what she had just meant.

But the girl told her to say so.

Haiyun looked at Xiaoman's receding back, pondered for a moment, then turned and walked towards Aunt Hongyu's room.

She was not important enough to speak ill of Nanny Xia in front of the Lady Dowager, but there were people who could.

Hongyu's aunt has always been suppressed by Nanny Xia, and recently she has been taking advantage of Nanny Xia's loss of power to win over people like them.

In this case, why don't I use Aunt Hongyu to suppress Nanny Xia?

When these two old guys are gone, she will be the oldest in Ci'an Hall except for the lady-in-waiting.

I have to say that after living in this mansion for a long time, I have learned all the struggles in the inner courtyard without any instruction.

No one knew what Haiyun said to Aunt Hongyu, but soon she arrived at the lady's room.

The lady looked at her gloomily and said, "Is everything you said true?"

Aunt Hongyu quickly said: "I have been with Madam Tai for so many years. Although I am not your dowry like Aunt Xia, I am absolutely loyal to Madam Tai.

The old servant was just wondering if Chen Youfu would tell the whereabouts of the jewellery when the mother and son met in private.

I'm sure that with Nanny Xia's loyalty, she will definitely come and tell the Madam when she finds out."

Upon hearing this, the lady snorted coldly and said, "I think her loyalty to me is not even one ten-thousandth of hers to her son. I want to hear what the mother and son have to say tonight."

Aunt Hongyu didn't show it on her face, but there was a hint of pride in her eyes.
