Chapter 789: A dog tied by the owner
“You wicked, greedy, selfish, and vicious woman, you still have the face to plead for your son in front of me when you committed such a sin?”
Mrs. Liu didn’t expect that Pei Qinghan even knew these old things. With Bai Zhi’s temperament, she would never say these things to him. She’s afraid that she would not even bother to say a word to him.
And only the Bai family knows these things best. Could it be Bai Zhenzhu?
She looked at Bai Zhenzhu with red eyes: “Did you say that?”
Bai Zhenzhu sneered: “It was me, what about it?”
Mrs. Liu threw herself at Bai Zhenzhu, grabbed her hair, and tore it.
Bai Zhenzhu was full of grievances. Mrs. Liu wanted to beat her, so she naturally couldn’t sit still and wait for death. The two quickly fought, biting and tearing each other like two mad dogs.
Pei Qinghan winked at Si Fu. Si Fu beckoned two burly men to come in, separate the two, and then dragged them away.
Mrs. Liu’s body trembled as she asked: “Where are you taking me?”
Si Fu said: “Since you have sold yourselves as slaves, naturally you have to go to work. Our Changyuan Hou Mansion doesn’t raise idlers.”
“Then, my son, what is he going to do with him? My son can write and read. Let him be a reading companion. Don’t you have two young masters here in the mansion?”
Si Fu coldly snorted: “Do you think anyone can simply be a reading companion? Your son is only worthy to be a night incense pouring man. Cut the c.r.a.p and go!”
Si Fu took Bai Zhenzhu and Mrs. Liu to the laundry room, while Bai Xiaofeng was taken to another place. He will be taken care of the Old Head Li who poured night incense.
There were originally five people in the laundry room. Since Bai Zhenzhu and Mrs. Liu were added, there were now seven people.
Seven people will wash the clothes of more than a hundred people in the mansion.
They were newcomers. Those who have been working for a long time will naturally have to teach them well.
To wash the most difficult clothes, furniture, utensils with cold water in a greater amount… …
Every day they opened their eyes to wash laundry. The skin on their hands has been peeled layer by layer, causing them to have frostbite which was itchy and painful.
Every day, Mrs. Liu missed the days in Huangtuo Village. Although she was not rich, she lived comfortably. She doesn’t need to work or be controlled by others. She can sleep for as long as she wanted to sleep. If she wanted to sleep loudly, she could speak loudly.
But now, she was like a dog tied up by the owner. She only has a simple meal every day. The clothes she needed to wash were endless. What’s more, the son she was so proud of now worked as a night incense pouring man. She will never have a prosperous life.

In the Meng Family
Madam Meng’s body was getting better every day. To take care of her, Meng Nan took a leave of absence for 10 days. He ate with her every day, watched her take the medicine, and walked with her in the courtyard. Seeing her complexion getting better day by day, the big rock hanging in my heart finally fell.
When Meng Yuande came back, he immediately went to his wife’s courtyard. Seeing that his wife looked good, he smiled and said: “Madam looks better today than yesterday. It seems that there is no problem. Miss Bai’s medicine is really effective.”
When Madam Meng heard the words, Miss Bai, her face immediately darkened: “I’m afraid it’s a blind cat finds a dead mouse. I don’t think I’m sick at all. To appear that she is good at medicine, she said awful things to scare you, and you really believe it.”
Hearing her words, Meng Nan felt unhappy, and pa.s.sed the medicine bottle in his hand to the maidservant and said: “Remember to let the madam take it before dinner, don’t forget.”
When the maidservant responded, Meng Nan turned around and left without a word.
