This was clearly Ji Muqing venting her anger on Luan’er!
After all, even nominally, Ji Yunshu was Ji Muqing’s little sister. She could verbally abuse her, but she could not hit her. But Luan’er, she was merely a maidservant who could be injured or even beaten to death without consequence.
For a few taels of silver, there was a dime a dozen to pick from!
Shui’er and Luo’er, who were behind Muqing, immediately started to comply. They approached Luan’er, intending to drag her away.
Usually when Ji Yunshu gets mistreated, she would let it go. But venting anger on Luan’er? That was out of question. Yunshu immediately stepped in front of Luan’er. She raised her brows and stared at Ji Muqing.
That look caused Ji Muqing’s entire body to quiver.
“Big sister, getting angry so early in the morning will be bad for your body. It would be better to just forget it. Later, I will teach Luan’er.”
“This little servant always likes to interrupt people. If it spreads outside, people will think that all our maidservants are vulgar. It won’t do if I don’t properly discipline her today.”
The unspoken implication was, of course, that Ji Yunshu was “vulgar”.
That woman, Ji Muqing, was really a top-notch primate!
