Chapter 1130: Nonsense
With a shout from Madam Qi, Little Liao’s heart trembled, her legs went weak as if they had no bones, and she plopped down on her knees to start defending herself."Mother, I’m not envious of this set of cloud brocade. It’s just that when I went to the Song Family, I didn’t bring spare clothes, I couldn’t return all wet, could I?"
"Shut up." Madam Qi glared at her coldly and said angrily, "Do you think I’m concerned about your clothes? It’s your words and actions. Who do you think you are, daring to rant in front of the Song Family’s matriarch, calling their personal maid a lowly servant?"
"I..."
"Even when hitting a dog, you have to consider its owner. By insulting their maid, you are insulting Matriarch Song too. Who do you think you are? It’s bad enough that you do this, and you, a junior, dare to tell others how to manage their maids? It’s simply senseless." Madam Qi felt the blood rush to her head just thinking about it, wondering how she was so blinded back then to have arranged this fool for Rui’er.
It’s truly rash.
Madam Qi’s temples throbbed, her head ached a bit, it was quite disgraceful.
Little Liao pouted and said, "Mother, I only blurted it out in a moment of urgency, my clothes were just put on, it’s not that I’m unwilling, but when they’re all doused like that, who wouldn’t be upset?"
"And being upset lets you speak wildly? Who taught you that?" Madam Qi looked displeased. "That maid sprinkled water on no one else, just you. Was it meant to target you on purpose, you think?"
Little Liao’s expression changed several times, thinking of something, she scrambled up from the ground, and said softly, "Mother, please don’t be angry, I was wrong this time, lost my temper, I won’t dare again."
"Heh, I’ll just listen to you. With your facade, can’t I see what kind of person you are?" Madam Qi taunted.
Little Liao smiled ingratiatingly, "Mother, you see through me, which also proves from the side that I am truly sincere and open with you, unlike some others who guard against us as if we’re thieves!"
Madam Qi frowned, "What do you mean?"
Little Liao leaned in and said, "Mother, about third sister-in-law, it’s likely she’s pregnant. Her claim of going to visit her grandmother is probably an excuse, she might actually be hiding at her mother’s place to nurture her pregnancy."
Madam Qi’s eyes flashed and then relaxed, "Pregnant? Are you sure?"
"I wouldn’t dare to confirm, but there are several small details anyone can see," Little Liao explained several details only pregnant women would exhibit and said, "I don’t believe she’s not pregnant."
She glanced at Madam Qi and said, "Actually, being pregnant is a good thing, but making it seem like we’re all villains guarding against them is too much. We’re all family, it’s too boring. Does anyone still not let her give birth?"
Madam Qi listened, feeling displeased, and said, "You know being pregnant is good, what does it matter where she nurtures it? Although you say she seems to be pregnant, without news, we cannot conclude."
Little Liao whispered, "Mother, hasn’t sister-in-law not changed her clothes for a month or two, isn’t that proof enough?"
Madam Qi shot her a look and said, "So you’ve placed people in her courtyard, monitoring whether she’s pregnant or not? What are you trying to do?"
Little Liao panicked and hurriedly said, "Mother, what would I want to do? It was a little maid named Qin’er in my courtyard who mentioned it a few days ago. She picked it up from some idle talk by the servants in sister-in-law’s room, you think I could do anything?"
