Male Wife - Chapter 43
Huang Momo’s words made her position very clear.
There are rules to follow, generation of the Chu family have made there way through this and people dare not to violate it. Xie Tingyue is a young madam and have been entrusted with heavy responsibility to manage and facilitate but the accounts have not been handed over yet and the last procedure is not completed, he have no rights to decide things.
According to rules, trivial things like choosing what to eat, taking care of the young master possesses no problem but dealing with precious things, sorry you are hundred years early, you have to go through formalities!
Subordinates have different divisions of labors, there are purchases, stewards and warehouse so there are many procedures for getting the herbs. You have to do this one by one, if you can’t get one you can’t do the next, in the middle of the night you want to gather everyone and disturb them?
Oh, Madam you are a difficult person!
Yes, the manor belongs to the Chu family but everything depends on the people working below, if no one runs no things will be done.
They want the new madam to understand that he is not in charge and wants to get along with everyone first!
Xie Tingyue sneered: “The accounts are not yet handed over, and you’re blaming me? Who is so incompetent that hasn’t done after given ample of time, is it me?”
Every word he spoke took a step forward with his imposing manner.
Huang Momo straighten her back and replied: “This old slave dare not pretend to be the master but the rules must not be broken. This iron law was passed down by the Chu family for generations, this old slave and others swears to protect it!”
Glancing at Huang momo up and down Xie Tingyue said: “Huang Momo is really loyal”
Huang Momo raised her head with all righteousness: “This old slave has survived with this loyalty! If young madam wants to kill this old servant, then this old servant has nothing to say. But our Chu family’s values loyalty the most. Even if young madam kills this old servant now, if there is no notes you can’t get the ginseng!”
She is giving a warning to Xie Tingyue, that the law does not blame everyone, you can kill me, but can you kill everyone?
Now you can’t dismiss me, what will you do.
Of course these words cannot be spoken, instead Huang momo kindly persuaded: “Similar accidents never happened in our family and it’s not that there are no solution, rather than making trouble here, young madam should think of other ways? You are the person next to eldest young master, eldest young master is ill and all of us are worried. You must be more anxious, why don’t you see if there is a century-old ginseng in your dowry and use it instead? Or ask the elders? The old matriarch likes you, the eldest madam has only one son, only eldest young master if you begged twice wouldn’t they gave you everything?”
She was hinting Xie Tingyue in their conversation, a century-old ginseng is a life-saving medicine and everyone needs to prepare this herbs to prevent accidents.
But here Xie Tingyue who just got engage—
He was ‘sold’ by his stepmother, what dowry can he have? Will Madam Lin give him something like the century-old ginseng?
It’s not that he can buy it without money, just… no one paid attention to him and none was prepared.
As for the elders—
The aunt who was strip from her power will not say anything. As for the old matriarch, does she really care for Chu Mu or him? Even so how can a servant dare to disturb her rest? If he didn’t get close to the white cat mysteriously on the day of marriage, she’s afraid he wouldn’t be able to settle down so smoothly after three days!
As for the eldest madam, Chu Mu’s mother who was caught a cold, she gave them something but it wasn’t the hundred or century old ginseng. Does his mother know that he needs the ginseng, because if yes then why not give it?
If he has no more options then he has no choice but to ask for it. If they have but didn’t give it then what can he do?
If he really was shameless then he wouldn’t be here but begging to the elders instead.
Xie Tingyue understood this and everyone in the yard knew about it.
She did it on purpose!
She hold her hands in front of her abdomen calmly and silently laughed with satisfaction, waiting for the young madam in front of her to recognize her.
Just in case she even invited the old matriarch white cat into the cage. This is so easy!
Come beg me, bow your head to me, promise me a lot of benefits, swear to me and I’ll help you.
Huang Momo is very confident, she is sure to win this round!
But she didn’t wait until Xie Tingyue was nervous and afraid.
The person looked at her quietly and suddenly smiled.
Reflecting the calm smile of their eldest young master, watching the person tearing her own face!
