Chapter 20 He's here! He's here!

I thought that today's matter had been settled, but the arrival of Shao Ziqing changed the matter.

When Grandma Li saw Shao Ziqing, she cried: "Master!"

Hysterical sounds filled the whole room. Nanny Li knelt and crawled to Shao Ziqing's feet, hugging her pair of pomegranate-red and precious-patterned cotton shoes, and cried like a confession: "Master, I'm sorry for you. I'm guilty.

This slave is guilty!"

Through the collar, Shao Ziqing saw the vague injuries on Nanny Li's back, and immediately frowned: "Who hit you?"

Sure enough, Shao Ziqing really cared about her nanny.

Shao Ziqing bent down to help Nanny Li up and asked again: "Tell me, who hit you."

Aunt Li replied painfully: "It's the young lady."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shao Ziqing immediately turned around and glared at Jiang Zuiyao, looking strong and domineering as if he was determined to get an explanation from Nanny Li.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Li quickly stopped her and said, "It's not my fault, Madam. It's my fault. I should be beaten."

Just this sentence made Feng on the side feel discouraged.

I thought that all my hard work today would be in vain. If Nanny Li shows weakness, Shao Ziqing will definitely protect her.

Shao Ziqing immediately turned to Jiang Zuiyao and said angrily: "Who gave you the courage to attack Grandma Li!"

This attitude couldn't be clearer. Shao Ziqing doesn't care whether Grandma Li has made a mistake or not, but if anyone dares to attack Grandma Li, he will not allow it!

That angry face was all seen by Jiang.

Jiang Zuiyao was not afraid of Shao Ziqing's anger and asked, "If Nanny Li had no fault, would I beat her?"

Jiang said at this time: "Ziqing, come over and take a look at these two accounts and you will know that Grandma Li's crime is indeed unforgivable."

Shao Ziqing glanced at the two account books on the table. He had no intention of going over and looked at them. He immediately said, "Isn't it just because I was greedy for some money? What's the big deal?"

!!

Everyone in the room was shocked, even Grandma Li was shocked.

Jiang asked in disbelief: "You know everything?"

Shao Ziqing said confidently: "My son has always been well aware of the affairs of the East Courtyard."

Ms. Jiang didn’t understand even more, with a look of surprise on her face: “Since you know that Grandma Li embezzled family wealth, how can you tolerate her?”

Shao Ziqing immediately protected Nanny Li behind him and replied solemnly: "Isn't the money in the East Courtyard given by the mother to the son? Since it was given to the son, the mother no longer has to worry about where the money goes, right?"

The harsh words hit Jiang's heart. This was not the first time she saw Shao Ziqing protecting Nanny Li, but she still felt pain.

Why? She is Shao Ziqing’s biological mother. Why?

The tear in her heart turned into anger, and Ms. Jiang asked coldly: "Do you know how much money from the East Courtyard Sister Li embezzled?"

Shao Ziqing said nonchalantly: "Our Shao family is not about to go bankrupt, why should mother care about this little money?"

This little money?

Jiang Zuiyao checked the accounts and found that there were misappropriations every day. Adding in her monthly silver this year, it was roughly calculated to reach thousands of taels of silver!

The Shao family is indeed wealthy, but Grandma Li is just a servant. I dare you to ask whose grandmother in Kyoto dares to do this!

"Snapped!"

Jiang slapped the table angrily, stood up angrily, and the furious Shao Ziqing said: "Do you still have rules in your eyes? How long are you going to protect her?"

Aunt Li was a little scared and subconsciously shrank behind Shao Ziqing.

Shao Ziqing refused to give in and said bluntly: "When we were sorted into different hospitals, my mother promised me that she would not make things difficult for Grandma Li anymore."

A cold light flashed in Jiang's eyes, and she said in disbelief: "Am I making things difficult? She has made such an unforgivable mistake. Shouldn't I hold her accountable?"

"My son has made his own decision about the matters in the east courtyard, so I don't need to worry about my mother." This short sentence was like a pair of huge hands, vigorously pushing Mr. Jiang away.

Jiang's sad eyes dimmed in the corners of her eyes. What did Shao Ziqing mean by this? She is his biological mother!

Not only that, Shao Ziqing's next words really chilled Jiang.

"I have known about Grandma Li's misappropriation of Dongyuan's money for a long time. She is just a little greedy for money. No one is perfect, so there is no need to pursue it."

Shao Ziqing actually downplayed the matter.

"Presumptuous!" Ms. Jiang roared angrily: "Do you think she just greedy a few taels of silver? Do you still have rules in your eyes? For a servant as greedy as her, it is not an exaggeration to order someone to pull her out and beat her to death with sticks!

"

Shao Ziqing clenched his teeth and said coldly: "If mother insists on beating Grandma Li to death with a stick, she should beat her son to death first!"

Such a sentence made Ms. Jiang take a sharp breath of cold air, raise her hands tremblingly, and point at Shao Ziqing angrily: "You... you are an unfilial son! I have spent more than twenty years raising you in vain. In your eyes, my words

Is it so frivolous?"

Shao Ziqing frowned irritably: "This kind of thing has happened too many times. Even I am tired of explaining it. Isn't mother still tired of hearing it?"

Jiang lowered his raised arm angrily, and the anger could not be delayed. Xueqing hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade her: "Madam, if you have something to say, please speak up. Don't get angry. The eldest young lady and the second young lady are still here."

This is reasonable. It doesn't matter that Jiang Zuiyao is Shao Ziqing's wife, but it's not good if Feng is still here and her concubine's wife can see her.

However, the anger in Jiang's heart has been accumulated for so many years. How can he calm down and restrain himself when he is impulsive? His roar instantly resounds throughout the room. Even standing in the courtyard, he can hear clearly: "How can I let him be like this?"

Don’t be angry! If he indulges Nanny Li like this, if other servants know, what are the rules of our Shao family? Today, I must punish Nanny Li severely to correct the family rules!"

Seeing Jiang's unstoppable look, Shao Ziqing's expression turned cold: "Does mother have to do this? Does mother have to do something that alienates her son?"

Under such circumstances, I am afraid that this matter will become a big deal today.

Jiang Zuiyao, who had been silent until now, spoke up: "Shao Ziqing, don't go too far."

Shao Ziqing spat out in disgust: "Do you have a role to speak here? I haven't settled the matter with you for beating up Nanny Li!"

Jiang Zuiyao felt no fear at all and said confidently: "Is it wrong for me to hit Grandma Li?"

Shao Ziqing clenched his fists angrily. If Jiang was not here, he would have beaten Jiang Zuiyao long ago. He suppressed the anger in his heart and said coldly: "You have forgotten what I said to you last night, haven't you?"

Jiang Zuiyao also got angry: "She deserves to be beaten, Nanny Li. What did I do wrong?"

Immediately afterwards, Jiang Zuiyao felt uneasy in her heart and said with a tight face: "How mean has Grandma Li been to me in the past year? Otherwise, you would think that I am an unreasonable person and you would beat her up? Look at how miserable I am now.
