Chapter 25.1 : The Truth Back Then
Seeing her looking like she was about to stamp her feet in rage, Qing Yu smiled to herself in her heart, but her face did not change at all. "Qing Yu will not dare to lie. If the d.u.c.h.ess does not believe me, you can investigate into it."
Mo Han Yan did not say anything, but the gaze that stared at Qing Yu was dark and filled with venom. The la.s.s had really embarra.s.sed her and it had really infuriated her!
"Haha, that must be a misunderstanding." Bai Qing saw that the atmosphere had turned extremely tense and she laughed feebly as she stood up to mediate. "The d.u.c.h.ess has lived in seclusion for many years and although she still handled the manor's internal affairs, having to take care of so many people would inevitably result in some things being overlooked. It must be due to some foolish mistake committed by some b.u.mbling servants in the manor. Just get the steward to go look into the matter and everything will be resolved."
As she spoke, she looked gently at the aggrieved looking young girl and said: "Don't worry. With the d.u.c.h.ess watching over you, the two of you will not be unfairly treated from now on."
"Thank you Royal Concubine, thank you d.u.c.h.ess." Qing Yu cast a grateful glance onto Bai Qing, and then looked hopefully at Mo Han Yan.
With Bai Qing having stirred things to reach such a stage, if Mo Han Yan did not do anything about the la.s.s' situation, then she would be seen as petty and narrow minded, one without the generosity of the heart to accept others.
Mo Han Yan took a deep breath, and fought hard to suppress the rage that filled her chest, pausing at every word like they had been squeezed out through the gaps between her gritted teeth. "As the d.u.c.h.ess, I….. will naturally ensure it."
"Yan Fei."
"Your servant is here. What orders does the d.u.c.h.ess have?"
"Convey my word. From now on, everything that the Tranquil Abode eats, wears, uses, and lives in, will be of the same standards as the ladies in the manor, and that the servants must be able to differentiate and identify the positions of master and servant. If it is discovered that there are any instances of errant servants who do not know their place and oversteps their boundaries to offend their masters, they will all be thrown out of the manor, without exception. If any of such news is spread outside, there will be much gossip about the Duke's Manor."
But compared to having the Tranquil Abode completely rebuilt and carry out a major reconstruction, this was still better.
"With this, are you satisfied?" Mo Han Yan snorted derisively. "I heard that His Highness wanted to rebuild the Tranquil Abode. You should know, that it will mean spending a great deal of money and time….."
"d.u.c.h.ess, you can be a.s.sured that I will speak with Father. My younger brother and I have gotten used to staying in the Tranquil Abode and we do not wish for there to be any changes." Qing Yu had already guessed what she was going to say, and she immediately took over the mic from her with a wide smile.
Looking at the young girl's face with such an obedient smile, Mo Han Yan's heart then subconsciously had a feeling that she seemed to have been swindled.
But she immediately denied it herself. [The la.s.s only has great looks. Humph! When it comes to the mind, the la.s.s would not be able to fight her at all.]
That woman had completely s.n.a.t.c.hed away the Duke's heart back then and she must not just sit back and await death, to allow that woman's children to steal the limelight from her once again!
After awhile, under all that incredibly abnormal atmosphere, each of them carrying their own inner demons, the women finished that most uncomfortable and repressive meal they ever had. If they disregarded the Tranquil Abode's sibling pair's irredeemable table etiquette, and Mo Han Yan's face that had changed colours like a colouring palette, everything else was rather great.
But, from then onwards, Mo Han Yan would probably not ever ask that pair of siblings to come to the main house to dine anymore. The disgust was already too much for her.
But to not have to spend such a great amount of money to reconstruct the Tranquil Abode had saved them a big expenditure. Not just for Mo Han Yan, the other were also over the moon with happiness, as the money saved would be enough for them to buy a whole season's worth of clothes.
Coming to the main house for the banquet, Qing Yu had indeed took her time to leisurely stroll for two whole hours before they reached, but for the way back, Qing Yu employed a trick, with a single s.h.i.+ft in dimensional s.p.a.ce, they returned to the Tranquil Abode in a blink.
