  You want me to kneel down? Even why should I when you even didn’t make clear who you are?

  She could only hit back when they clarified their identities.

  “How dare you! You’re not eligible to ask the question. Just kneel down as we told you to!” This time, it was that madam Mei who was speaking.

  Afterwards, madam Jing spoke once again, “Just kneel down and apologize to us Hanlei, serve her a cup of tea, and us Hanlei will be happy to forgive you. Otherwise, you’ll get more than you bargained for!”


  What a way to put it! Don’t you fear the wind would be so strong that it blew your teeth off?

  To this point, Mo Qianxue didn’t even bother to act. Since these two stupid women were so unappreciated, she might just resort to the tough method. Mo Qianxue put away her gentle tone and satirized, “You, madam, even daren’t to tell me who you are but asked me to kowtow to you? Who do you think you are? Zhen Huan (the heroine of a popular Chinese TV series: Empresses in the Palace)? Everyone should listen to you for no reason? Go to see a doctor if you’re out of your mind!”


  After saying that, she turned around, not planning to pay any more attention to either this madam Jing (meaning quiet in Chinese) or madam Noise. So what if she was a concubine of the Ning family? She couldn’t be Ning Shaoqing’s mom. If she wasn’t her mother-in-law, there was no reason to bear with them.

  The bystanders wore different looks, but they were most curious about who this Zhen Huan was that Mo Qianxue was talking about.

  Madam Jing almost fainted from anger! If Mo Qianxue walked away like this, wouldn’t she became a laughing stock among the madams?

  “You……you……you…… They are right about you. You have no breeding. You disappeared for half a year. Who knew what happened during that?! Our Master is just too kind to marry you dirty woman…… He even failed our chaste Hanlei that the clan has prepared for him long ago. You……wait…… When I go back, I’ll absolutely report everything to Old Master and let him hold a meeting to cancel your marriage!”


  Mo Qianxue was irritated!

  But she didn’t stop madam Jing from going on!

  She aimed to let this woman finish! Just finish everything insulting against her. When this crazy woman ran out of words, she would make her swallow back into her belly what she had said!

  Madam Jing finished, and madam Mei didn’t fall behind and started right away.

  “Yes! Such a woman isn’t even worthy to step into the door of our Ning mansion! Let’s go back and talk to Old Master. Just cancel this marriage so that the woman can’t bring a shame on the family!”


  However, it could be seen that this madam Mei was much clever than madam Jing. As least, she didn’t say everything for sure as if she had a say in it!

  “In my view, our Hanlei is much better! She knows to respect seniors and to love juniors. Besides, our Hanlei is outstanding in poetry, music, chess, painting and calligraphy. The most important is our Hanlei is chaste. Only such a woman is worthy of our Shaoqing!”


  The two said that with a smug smile and pulled over Yuwen Hanlei to face everyone, trying to deter Mo Qianxue, while the brainless Yuwen Hanlei should at this time worked with them and put on a bashful face.

  Mo Qianxue found it really disgusting!

  “Done?”


  There was nothing as the women had expected, and Mo Qianxue was neither furious or crying, but instead staring at the three with composed eyes, which even contained a ghost of mockery.

  This made the three women feel embarrassed for a while!

  The way to receive an enemy wasn’t to piss off or feel sorry for oneself, but to catch them by surprise.

  Mo Qianxue had smoothened away her anger by a few deep breaths. Besides, when even Chiyi and Shiwu almost fly into a fury hearing those insults, she still had the patient to pull their sleeves and motioned to them not to stir.

  Chuyi and Shiwu were loyal and wouldn’t stir when their lady asked them not to. Shiwu glared, but Chuyi had a little more reason than her and managed to remain calm, standing there, like their lady, quietly alerted but crystal-clear of everything around them.

  Seeing the three didn’t make a reliy, Mo Qianxue asked with much patience again, “I’m asking whether you’re done or not?”


  It looked like that they were some clumsy actress of a low comedy while she was an honored audience who enjoyed the show with leisure.

  Madam Jing and madam Mei exchanged a look, unable to figure out what Mo Qianxue was up to. The composure and impenetrable eyes gave them a chill.

  Nevertheless, having stayed in the deep mansion of the Ning clan for a dozen years, they weren’t easily daunted. Putting her self together, madam Mei snorted coldly, “What does it matter whether we’re done or not? What we are saying is truth, isn’t it?”


  “It doesn’t matter. Since you’re done, I think it’s my turn, right?” Looking at the three, Mo Qianxue gave a smile, as if she had been a pleasant junior.

  However, this look misled the two concubines to believe that she was scared! There was once again titter and arrogance on their faces.

  They waited for Mo Qianxue to kneel down and kowtow to them.

  “Chuyi and Shiwu! Go and slap them!”


  Yuwen Hanlei shrank back in fear!

  Just now that Shiwu had slapped her maid’s teeth off. If Mo Qianxue took this opportunity to get back at her and knock her teeth off too, what would she have to compete against her in the future?

  The two madams were stunned for a second and scolded at once, “Mo Qianxue, don’t you dare!” Before they came to the party, Old Madam had made a thorough investigation about Mo Qianxue! Except for the period when she and Ning Shaoqing had disappeared, they knew everything about her!

  They had expected Mo Qianxue, when hearing these insulting words, to cry and run away, or at least hit the ceiling and come up to fight them like a crazy woman!

  They had even prepared maids to protect them. But why did Mo Qianxue not stir as they were talking but have to ask her maids to start after they finished?

  She didn’t rush over like a crazy woman but intended to slap them as a way of punishment.

  “Qianxue dare not to, but you should know, madams, can you throw dirt at the fame of the Ning family, Master Ning and the Emperor?”


  Mo Qianxue stepped forward, aggressive, “I guess you know the consequences of being a dirty mouth! Dragging Old Madam and Old Master in. Although I haven’t moved to the Ning Mansion yet, the Emperor has issued his imperial order. Now, I’m at least half a Ning. Now, I’m just, on behalf of Old Madam, to teach you the rules. Chuyi, Shiwu, slap them in the face!”


  Chuyi and Shiwu already couldn’t wait to move when they had heard these two old women slander their lady! But for lady’s prevention, they would have ripped apart the two stinky women’s mouths!

  Now it was different! Their lady had asked them to! Time for slapping!

  The two girls had been holding a gust of rage for a long time and finally got this chance to take it out. Therefore, almost as soon as Mo Qianxue said that, they rushed out!

  “You…… Don’t come over! Help……”


  Just now that maid had knocked off a person’s teeth by a single slap! When they thought of this, the two madams’ faces were ashy pale. They stepped back in a hurry behind a group of maids.

  On a sudden, there was clamor again! Chuyi and Shiwu were martial cultivators and could certainly address a few women with ease! Not to mention these three women, even if all their servant girls and nannies came together, it would be a small piece of cake for Chuyi and Shiwu.

  Yet, lady had just asked them to slap, not to fight. If they, in so many people’s presence, had beaten up a group of maids publicly, lady’s fame would absolutely be ruined.

  For a time, the two sides confronted each other.

  Mo Qianxue wasn’t surprised. But for a good preparison in advance, how could them have dared to provoke her like this?

  “At the Jinluan Palace, Three Madams have proven my innocence, and the Emperor announced it to the world. How could things turn so ugly out of your mouths?

  Are you questioning the Emperor?! I’m slapping you not for myself, but for the Ning clan, for Old Master and Old Madam so that you still have a chance of self-punishment before the Emperor does that! so that the Ning clan could give a respond to the Emperor and all the females in the Ning Mansion!”


  Mo Qianxue’s voice wasn’t very loud, but was enough to let everyone hear clearly!

  For a while, everyone’s expressions varied and changed again and again!
