After granny Ruo left Ning Siyao's yard, she directly headed towards the direction of Yingshuang yard. Along the way, she kept looking at the bag of gold in her hand.
This news was very quickly passed on to Qingyan.
Granny Ruo, since you want to be loyal to the second house this much, then what's the harm in granting your wish. Besides, everyone has plenty of time.
When granny Ruo entered Yingshuang yard, she saw that no one welcomed her. Putting on airs, she berated them, "A bunch of useless slaves, don't you know that you should come greet me when you see me?"
However, the servant girls all pretended to not hear her voice and continued to mind their own business with their work in hand. Unable to continue watching, granny Ruo grabbed a broom and charged out, "Did you not hear me?"
"My, I was just wondering who it was. Isn't this the long time no seen granny Ruo? What's wrong, did you finally think of the young miss now?" When Lue walked out and saw granny Ruo, she spoke out in a sarcastic tone.
Granny Ruo glanced at Lue and reached out to slap her. But just when she was about to lift her hand, she was struck. She then heard another voice chime in, "Lue, who is this old hag? Why have I never seen her before?"
Granny Ruo looked towards Qingdai in discontent, "Where did you come from, how dare you hit me, do you know who I am?"
Qingdai clearly didn't care. Holding her wrist, she looked to granny Ruo and spoke in a cold tone, "I don't care who you are, I only listen to the young miss."
Lue looked to Qingdai and recalled Qingyan's orders from earlier. She whispered in a small voice, "Qingdai, she's the miss's wet nurse granny, if the young miss finds out, she might get mad at you."
Qingdai smirked and raised her eyebrows, "Oh, I see, so it's miss's wet nurse granny. Then it really is my fault." As she said this, she picked a small rock from the ground and flicked it towards granny Ruo. "I'm just punishing a pathetic servant. She should really look at who raised her to be so pathetic like this. To go as far as to calling everyone useless slaves. The miss has always treated us servants so well."
At the same time, Su Qingyan was sitting in her room leisurely drinking her tea. The four girls at her side had their mouthes covered, holding in their laughter. Seeing them like that, Su Qingyan also laughed with them.
No matter how much granny Ruo called out from outside, she was indifferent.
Deciding that she's seen enough, she pretended to call out in discontent, "Qingdai, go see that the pig outside is slaughtered, to dare disturb my afternoon nap. I can't sleep like this."
Hearing that word, Qingdai forcefully held back her laughter. She replied in a clear voice, "Miss, it's your wet nurse granny that just returned. Just now it was this pig that was screaming out."
When Baizhi helped Qingyan open the door, she saw granny Ruo with a pigheaded expression. Seeing her like that, Qingyan had to force back her laughter. As soon as granny Ruo saw Qingyan, she immediately knelt down. She looked to Qingyan with her swelling face in discontent, "Miss, this pathetic slave is bullying me."
Qingyan glanced to Qingdai and smiled. She walked up next to Qingdai and held up her hands, "Look at these poor hands. Huangcen, quickly go fetch my jiyu ointment." She then added as she spoke to the air, "If something like this were to happen again, just let Fengqing take care of it."
Huangcen very quickly brought out the jiyu ointment. Baizhi even stood to the side with a bowl of water. Qingyan picked up the towel and lightly wiped Qingdai's hands.
Qingyan clearly knew in her heart that Qingdai's callus filled hands was the result of her many

years of practice with the sword. When she confirmed that she'd cleaned the hands, Qingyan picked up the ointment and applied it evenly bit by bit on her hands. Lastly, she patted Qingdai's hands, "A girl should cherish her hands."
Although this act was originally all planned by Qingyan, this scene, she didn't tell them beforehand. Looking at her cleaned hands, Qingdai looked to Qingyan with newfound admiration. She nodded her head at Qingyan, "I understand."
During this entire process, Qingyan had completely ignored granny Ruo's injuries. And because of Su Qingyan's orders, granny Ruo was still kneeling on the ground this whole time.
When she saw her face, Qingyan spoke out in contempt, "Who is this? Fengqing, why haven't you thrown out the trash for me already, how disgusting."
Zizhu looked to Qingyan laughing, "Miss, this is granny Ruo!"
Hearing Zizhu say that, Qingyan covered her mouth in shock, "It's actually granny Ruo?! Granny Ruo, how did you end up like this?"
Granny Ruo didn't know if Qingyan was purposely making it difficult for her or not. She looked to Qingdai still with a look of discontent, "It's all that pathetic wrench's fault that I'm like this...."
Just when granny Ruo was about to continue speaking, Fengqing directly slapped her across the face. Although Fengqing held back, he was still someone who'd practiced martial arts, so immediately granny Ruo fell to the ground with her legs up.
Granny Ruo had no idea why she was hit. Qingyan looked to Zizhu that was next to her and nonchalantly said, "Zizhu, what is granny Ruo's position?"
"Although she is miss's wet nurse granny, she is still a servant. How could she use such a tone in front of the miss." Zizhu looked to Qingyan and answered seriously.
"I see!" Qingyan looked to her own pair of delicate hands, "Zizhu, how should we help granny Ruo improve her memory?"
"Granny Ruo has already become like this, I feel bad if we keep bullying her." Zizhu looked to granny Ruo in disdain.
"No good, I'm the young miss." She then recalled the servant girl that reported to the third house last time and smiled, "Xiaocui, give granny Ruo fifty slaps across the face. You better do them firmly, Fengqing will supervise for me. If Xiaocui doesn't hit hard enough, then I'll bestow these fifty slaps to her."
"Understood." He said this as he scanned the girl standing to the side and spoke in a cold voice, "Go on."
Granny Ruo completely didn't expect any of this. Her face was already swollen, who know what she'll end up like after these fifty slaps. As she thought of this, she instantly pressed her head to the ground to ask for forgiveness, "Miss, have mercy! I didn't mean to."
But Qingyan looked as if she'd completely didn't see her begging for forgiveness. She yawned, "I'm really tired! Xiaocui, if this pathetic servant makes a single noise and disturbs my rest, then next time, the one I'll have to deal with is you." With that said, Qingyan turned to leave.
Granny Ruo was already old in years, how could she endure such torment. Before the count could even reach twenty, she'd already passed out.
Seeing the passed out granny Ruo on the ground, Qingyan said in a cold voice, "Fengqing, just throw her out for me."
After receiving his orders, Fengqing really did just throw her out.
When she looked to Xiaocui with a smile, Qingyan took out the hairpin in her hair and placed it in Xiaocui's hands, "Your hands must hurt, you can have this."
Although Xiaocui didn't know why Qingyan called her out, but when she saw the hairpin, her eyes lit up. As she accepted the hairpin with a bow, she continuously thanked her master, "Thank you young miss, thank you young miss."
