As for their son, they had been working hard for the Liu family all their lives, all for this. 30?? Their baby?
He had begged the housekeeper to give him a position as a guard, so that he could climb up the ranks step by step and have a place in the Liu family.
They had not expected to be slandered by the Second Langjun for no reason.
Not only that, but the ignorant Second Langjun had doubted their loyalty and had slandered them. The housekeeper had not stopped him and had allowed him to do whatever he wanted. That was why the couple had gone to Madam Hu in tears, hoping that she would seek justice for them.
Of course, they were smart enough not to say anything bad about Jiang Pengji. Otherwise, they would be digging their own graves.
As a concubine, Madam Hu had been in charge of the Liu family for many years. How could someone of her status like the legitimate son of the deceased first wife? But if the legitimate son was bullied by the servants, it would be no different than slapping her in the face.
It was one thing to dislike the Second Langjun, but it was another for the servants to humiliate the Liu family.
Therefore, they had only hinted at one thing out of consideration.
They had been with Father Liu since they were young, and Father Liu had entrusted them with important tasks before he passed away. To some extent, they represented Father Liu's reputation. What the Second Langjun had done was disrespecting Father Liu. To put it more seriously, it was unfilial.
From the previous dynasty to the current five dynasties, filial piety had always been emphasized. It was also an important criterion for an official to become an official.
A filial person might not be able to become an official, but an unfilial person would never be able to become an official.
Upon hearing this, Madam Butterfly's lazy expression turned serious, and she immediately sat up straight. Seeing this, the butler and his wife thought that they had touched Madam Butterfly's heart, and they immediately calmed down as if they had taken a tranquilizer.
"You know quite a lot …"
Madam Hu slowly took a sip of tea. She did not put on any makeup and looked very clean. She did not look as glamorous and imposing as she usually did. Instead, she looked more lazy, as if she could not do anything and was not interested in anything.
The housekeeper and his wife saw that they had a chance, so they cheered up and flattered her. "Master and Madam Hu care about us. We have been in the family for so many years and have been influenced by Master's literary talent. I feel like I have a few jars of ink …"
Madam Hu's eyes flickered and her neatly trimmed black eyebrows furrowed.
"I am just a lowly concubine. Other than the late lady and the one in the eastern inner court, no one has the right to call me Master."
The butler and his wife continued to flatter Madam Hu and said, "Madam, you don't have to say that. Everyone knows that you and Old Master are childhood sweethearts. You are a match made in heaven. If Madam hadn't taken advantage of …"
He lowered his head and spoke. Madam Hu had placed an exquisite embroidered screen in front of her, so the gloomy look in his eyes could not be seen.
The maid knelt outside the door and whispered, "Madam Hu, the second Langjun is here."
Madam Hu tightened her grip on the black wooden table beside her and said, "Let him in."
Jiang Pengji could enter the second lady's room as she pleased, but she could not treat Madam Hu that way.
Fortunately, Madam Hu and Liu Lanting did not interact much. They were strangers, so Jiang Pengji was not afraid of being recognized.
The maid opened the door and sat down on Madam Hu's right. "May I know why you are looking for me?"
She could see Madam Hu's face from her seat.
Jiang Pengji, who was used to seeing beautiful women, was stunned the moment she saw Madam Hu.
Madam Hu's appearance was not that of a noble lady, but it was what Jiang Pengji admired the most.
Seductive but not seductive, gorgeous but not uncommon. She exuded a mature temperament and style from head to toe, causing others to feel a fatal temptation, yet because of that indescribable aggressiveness, they had no choice but to maintain a certain distance.
Her eyebrows carried a hint of heroism, which made her look more spirited. There was a mole at the corner of her right eye. Her eyes were half-closed, and her thick, long eyelashes moved with her breathing, as if she was trying to tickle someone's heart …
All in all, this was a charming, mature, and beautiful woman who was born with the aura of a royal sister. This kind of beauty was not something that a little girl who was still wet behind the ears could disguise. Her natural charm, self-restraint, and bearing all required the accumulation of time to create such a stunner.
There was no generation gap when it came to beauty, regardless of the era. If Madam Hu could amaze Jiang Pengji, it was only natural that the audience would fall for her.
Yongyuan Tiankong: "Ahhh — what a beautiful lady. Mama asked me why my phone screen is so wet."
[Mui Huakai]: (*/w * *) So beautiful! I have a new screensaver! The beauty is so recognizable!
Don't Snatch Wo Er Lou: "Streamer, the moment I saw your dad's mistress, I decided to be friends with you!"
User3216: "Beautiful lady, I've already ruined a phone and a computer by licking them."
Userrey11: "Thank you for the OP's recommendation. It makes me want to recommend it too. There are so many beautiful girls in this live broadcast channel. It cured my face blindness."
The barrage on the screen was like a fountain erupting, countless prprprprpr almost drowning the entire screen.
Jiang Pengji did not look at it for long, but according to her memory, even if it was only for a moment, she could remember the smallest details with just a glance.
The System did not have to deliberately feel for it to know that Jiang Pengji was happy and relaxed at that moment. This discovery made it a little confused.
The System said, "I don't care if you're flirting with girls, but BG harem fights do not support the Host playing GL side quests. Otherwise, I'm going to cry!"
Jiang Pengji secretly rolled her eyes. Sometimes, the System was cuter when it was quiet.
"Everyone loves beauty. It's just a hobby of mine. Who gave you the wrong impression that I might like girls? "
As Jiang Pengji chatted with the System, Madam Hu's slightly hoarse voice could be heard from above.
"Where are you looking at, Erlang?"
In fact, the seemingly lazy Madam Hu was also distracted for a moment.
Of course, Madam Hu was in a daze not because she thought Jiang Pengji was beautiful, but because she saw Jiang Pengji's blurry figure walking slowly through the half-transparent screen. She had the illusion that an old friend had returned, and she almost lost her mind.
But she quickly hid it, and Jiang Pengji happened to look away at the same time, so no one noticed.
Jiang Pengji smiled gently, like a piece of warm jade. "I'm looking at Aunt Die, whom I haven't seen for a long time."
Everyone was bewildered when they heard this.
She was the legitimate son of the family, so why would she tease her stepmother?
But Jiang Pengji did not say it without thinking. According to her observations, Madam Hu knew Liu Lanting's secret.
