The Reborn Girl's Path To Glory Chapter 45 Concubine's Kid Is Really Petty!

Although Song Yixiao guessed incorrectly and thought her mother trapped Jinxun indirectly, she didn't want to let Lu Zimiao go. She said, "I live in Prince of Hengshan's mansion many years without paying. So I always bear their satire and don't dare to complain! I don't mind it. But how can Lu Zimiao treat my maid like that?"

She comforted Jinxun and gave her two sets of dresses she had just worn. Then she asked Jinxun to rest and then called Ms. Zhao upstairs to discuss, "I should teach Lu Zimiao a lesson! But we can't speak it out publicity. Otherwise it will damage Jinxun's reputation!"

"Now you haven't become Duke Jian's fiancée. I think we'd better not cause complications since Sixth Young Lady conceals it." Ms. Zhao said after thinking, "Anyway, Jinxun is just a maid and doesn't get the worst of it!"

Although Ms. Zhao said that, she also knew Song Yixiao regarded her people as important and cared more about her maids after Zhiqin had an accident.

Sure enough, Song Yixiao had a look of dissent. Ms. Zhao reminded her, "Whatever Sixth Young Lady used to be, she saves Jinxun this time and protects her reputation. If we make trouble to Fifth Young Master for Jinxun, he will hate us and transfer his anger on Sixth Young Lady!"

Although Lu Chai'er had a different mother with Lu Zimiao, they had a good relations.h.i.+p because they were all concubine's children and almost of the same age. In this era, girls didn't offend their brothers because they rely on them after they get married. If they disliked each other due to Song Yixiao, it would be so unfair to Lu Chai'er.

Song Yixiao felt sorry for her maid. But she didn't want to return kindness with ingrat.i.tude. Hearing Ms. Zhao's words, she kept silent for a long time and then sighed, "Let it go!"

She didn't try to revenge, but someone wanted to make trouble for her.

After noon the next day, Wei Mengying asked Qiaoqin to let Song Yixiao go to the princ.i.p.al room. Qiaoqin said, "Second Young Mistress just told the Princess Consort that she saw Jinxun pawed with Fifth Young Master yesterday in the garden. She persuaded the Princess Consort to give Jinxun to Fifth Young Master, in case of destroying your reputation by their secret contacts. The Princess Consort said she should ask your opinion in advance because Jinxun is a good maid for you!"

Song Yixiao almost died of anger. Jinxun was just bullied and had no way to revenge. How could Madam Jin come to maltreat an injured person?

Did they all think they could bully her easily due to her dim prospects?

She clapped on the table with angry face and stood up suddenly, "Let's go!"

As soon as she came into the yard of princ.i.p.al room, she heard Second Young Mistress say sharply, "The prince's mansion has raised Miss Song for many years. The money spent for her is enough to buy dozens of maids! Now we just want one of her maids. How can she refuse?"

Song Yixiao sneered and walked quickly to the room. Then she questioned, "Second Young Mistress, do you lack maids to serve you? Even if it's true, there are many clever maids who want to serve you in the prince's mansion. Why do you just want my maid? Do I offend you so that you are unhappy to see I have maids and want to grab them?"

"Miss Song, you really have a glib tongue!" Second Young Mistress touched the golden bracelet on her wrist and sighed without raising her head, "It'll be good for you. After all, it's a good thing to help other people achieve their dreams. Jinxun has served you for a long time and should be given credit for hard work, if not for merit. But your att.i.tude seems to blame me for coveting your maid!"

Then she chuckled, "Miss Song, you misunderstand me! How can I feel unhappy to see you have maids? You are the favorite daughter of Stepmother. Is it a bid thing that you have a maid? The prince's mansion is rich and easy to buy hundreds of maids. How can Stepmother treat you badly?"

"You don't want to get Jinxun?" Song Yixiao saluted to Wei Mengying and Second Young Mistress. Then she sat in a junior seat and took a sip of tea given by Qiaoqin. She said casually, "But what do you mean that you want to help people to achieve their dreams?"

Second Young Mistress knew that Song Yixiao asked as if did not know. But she really saw Lu Zimiao blocked Jinxun in the garden yesterday. It was uneasy for Song Yixiao to deny it!

So she smiled, "Well, Miss Song! You are a girl and should care about your maids! Otherwise other people will say your maids are well-behaved, which will destroy your reputation! Like Jinxun, it's normal for her to like handsome and young Lu Zimiao. But without a matchmaker and betrothal presents, how could she seduce him..."

"Nonsense!" Jinxun's face looked terrible since she came in. But she had to bear because of her status. When she heard that Second Young Mistress distorted the truth to say Jinxun seduced Lu Zimiao actively, she couldn't stand it anymore even if she was only a servant. She burst into tears and said, "The truth is..."

"Second Young Mistress, Jinxun was born in an innocent family even if she's a servant girl!" Song Yixiao raised her eyebrows and interrupted Jinxun. She stared at Second Young Mistress sharply and asked, "Do you have any evidence to prove that she seduced Fifth Young Master?"

"I and my maid saw it. How can we put her in the wrong?" Second Young Mistress glanced at Jinxun satirically, "Miss Song, if you don't believe, why not ask Zimiao to confront with her?"

Song Yixiao sneered after hearing it, "It's so strange! Second Young Mistress, you blamed Jinxun that she was not well-behaved. But when you and your maid saw Jinxun stayed with Fifth Young Master yesterday, why didn't you stop them immediately? Why don't you tell Mother until today?"

She looked mysterious, putting down the tea bowl. She said, "Or did you dare not to care about them because what you did at that time was also not well-behaved?"

Wei Mengying sat in the senior chair and took a sip of tea. She continued to knock Second Young Mistress like her daughter in a proper way, "Jinxun won't gossip. And she seems not to see anything secret. You confess without being pressed this time!"

"Stepmother, you really love your daughter!" Second Young Mistress trembled because she was angry by their cooperation, "Sure enough, Stepmother didn't have a look at my firm evidence! Miss Song framed me without any evidence. But Stepmother believed that instantly! Stepmother, do you remember that this mansion belongs to Lu Family instead of Song Family! You have married into the Lu Family!"

Wei Mengying was complex and was lazy to care about her blame. She said, "Yixiao just said her guess. If you are innocent, why did you rage and even dare to ask me whose wife I am?"

"Second Young Mistress, you are so strange!" Song Yixiao continued, "You said that you and your maid saw Jinxun seduced Fifth Young Master. You also said it was not well-behaved! But you didn't stop them at that time but told us the next day. If other people hear that, they will also feel doubtful!"

She said slowly, "Jinxun is just a maid. Are you afraid to blame her? As for Fifth Young Master, you are his elder sister-in-law. Your husband is the legitimate son, but he is a concubine's son. It's reasonable that you scold or help him! You have the right to stop them. So I'm curious why you don't blame them at that time. Am I wrong? Why do you think I frame you without evidence?"

How dared Second Young Mistress confound right and wrong?

She should be knocked by my mother completely!

Song Yixiao's eyes flashed scorn. She said, "Mother, I'm thankful that the prince's mansion raised me. How dare I frame Second Young Mistress of the prince's mansion? In my view, we should check it out clearly! Like what Second Young Mistress said, it doesn't matter the reputation of me and Jinxun is destroyed, but it will be terrible to implicate Commandery Princess Kou'er and others!"

"It should be!" Wei Mengying touched her temples and said with a casual air, "Since the Prince and the Dowager Consort ask me to manage the mansion, how can I let bad behavior go unchecked here? Don't worry. I won't harbor evildoers. No matter who behave badly, I won't let them go as long as I check out!"

She said so loudly and firmly. But how could Second Young Mistress believe her?

"The truth yesterday is that Lu Zimiao took liberties with Jinxun. Even if she finds it, she will just punish Lu Zimiao a little!" Second Young Mistress was so angry in her heart, "Song Yixiao just blamed me for doing nothing at that time. Then Wei Mengying followed her daughter to deal with me with much more crimes."

At that time, even if everyone knew Jinxun seduced Lu Zimiao, Wei Mengying could let Jinxun leave to protect her daughter because Jinxun was just a servant. Each family had some maids behaving badly. If masters took the responsibility of their faults, would the imperial capital have any innocent family?

It wouldn't hurt them painfully!

What's more, it was not a fresh thing that a maid seduced young master. People would forget it soon. Compared with it, Second Young Mistress, as legitimate son's wife of the prince's mansion, didn't help her brother-in-law who was seduced by a girl, which would make people curious about what she was doing at that time!

Even if she was innocent, she would of course be wronged!

In particular, Wei Mengying had a son and a daughter, with a more stable status than 6 years ago. Second Young Mistress framed Jinxun this time. Even the Dowager Consort wouldn't support her!

Shocked and angry, Second Young Mistress vented her anger on Lu Chai'er, "If she didn't interfere, I would have stopped them immediately to make it real that Jinxun seduced Lu Zimiao!"

But Lu Zimiao gave face to his younger sister. After Lu Chai'er persuaded him for a moment, he let Jinxun go and left. Second Young Mistress didn't want to "help" until he got Jinxun or Jinxun became more terrible. So she didn't have time to prevent Lu Chai'er. As a result, Second Young Mistress had to blame Jinxun the next day!

But she didn't expect that Song Yixiao made use of it to blame her!

Second Young Mistress was so angry and thought it was Lu Chai'er's fault. "Sh*t! How could she help other family's person? She is so weak!"

"Doesn't she know that Song Yixiao is an outsider but can live more extravagant than her!"

"As a young lady of prince's mansion, she doesn't think it shameful but even protects Song Yixiao's maid!"

"She doesn't have any backbone!"

"How foolish she is! Concubine's kid is really petty!"

However, no matter how she cursed Lu Chai'er in her heart, she couldn't change the present situation. Fortunately, she hit on an idea in desperation. Song Yixiao seemed to let Jinxun shut up by interrupting her. But Second Young Mistress thought Song Yixiao just wanted to prevent Jinxun from saying the truth. Obviously, Song Yixiao regarded this servant girl's reputation as important!

Second Young Mistress was smart at this time. She turned to smile and said softly, "Alas! Stepmother, Miss Song, don't be so serious! It's just a joke. You are so solemn!"

Sure enough, Wei Mengying only paid attention to the tea bowl in her hand and didn't want to let her go. But Song Yixiao said lightly, "Is it a joke? Don't you think the joke is so terrible? Even if she is only a servant girl, can you destroy her reputation casually?"

"It's said that Miss Song is clever and resourceful. So I'm curious and want to bluff you." Second Young Mistress clapped her hands and pretended to say sincerely, "I didn't go to the garden yesterday. What can I see? Besides, Zimiao is well-behaved and never pays attention to girls, including servant girls, as long as they don't belong to him!"

She smiled, "The thing about him and Jinxun is not true. I just wanted to use the bluff to make you shocked! But Miss Song is so smart that I failed!"

"Second Young Mistress, please don't do this kind of terrible thing anymore!" Song Yixiao gave her an opportunity, concerning Jinxun's future. Although Song Yixiao wanted to slap her face, she took a deep breath to control herself and sneered, "You are kids' mother. You should acc.u.mulate virtue for your kids, right?"

"You!" Second Young Mistress gave up. But she didn't expect that Song Yixiao laughed at her after conciliatory. In the past six years, Wei Mengying had knocked her many times because she didn't give birth to a kid!

Because of that, the Dowager Consort didn't like her as before, either!

Because she couldn't have a son, her husband, Lu Guanqun, was disappointed and began to cultivate eldest concubine's son, which was the angriest things of Second Young Mistress. That boy knew how to make his father happy. Few years later, even if she had a son, the concubine's son would still have an important position in his father's heart!

"B***h! Did you laugh at me to be childless? After you marry Zhuo Ping'an, will you continue to smile?"

Thinking of it, Second Young Mistress clenched her fists many times and finally breathed out. She felt a little better this time.
