At the end of the story, Feng Yanran stepped away after she served her part. She was abandoned by her family and spent the rest of her life in loneliness.
Su Kui closed her eyes and resisted the urge to curse. If the system had a physical body, Su Kui believed that she would definitely tear it apart alive!
‘All of this is for the sake of a resurrection.’ Su Kui clenched her fists.
She opened her eyes, and they were lit with a hint of ruthlessness, which came from the original personality’s temper.
With a wave of her hand, Su Kui knocked the medicine bowl off the tray on her bedside, sending it to the floor. Smash! The porcelain bowl shattered into pieces following a loud crash.
When the maids rushed in, they saw the eldest lady’s pale face. Her lips were tightly pressed together, while her eyes flared with rage.
They quivered and got down on their knees at once. “M-Milady, what happened?”
Su Kui snorted coldly. “Ever since I woke up, there hasn’t been anyone by my side to take care of me! Honestly, all of you are just asking for punishment. If I don’t punish you, others will think that you are the master and I am the servant!”
If they turn out to be guilty of such a thing, things would be really bad for them. They were maids who had signed a death pact, so no one would question anything even if their masters wanted to kill them just because their masters were in a bad mood.
Two of the maids turned pale immediately. They burst into tears and hit their heads desperately on the floor as they cried, “Please spare our lives, Eldest Lady.”
“The third lady in the front yard needed more hands to move rooms, and we were asked to help. Please forgive us, Eldest Lady. We won’t do it again.”
After Su Kui heard that, she smiled instead of flying into a rage. Her slanted eyes were incredibly charming. “Oh? Who does Feng Qingqing, a mistress’ child, think she is? She has some nerve ordering my maids around. Well, since you like to serve her more, I’ll do you a favor. Pack up your things now and move to her courtyard!”
The second she finished her sentence, the expression on the faces of those two maids changed. “Please spare our lives, Eldest Lady, spare our lives. Sob…”
Grand Preceptor Residence was well known for its extremely strict rules. Servants who were detested by their masters would pay a heavy price even if they managed to survive their punishment.
Su Kui did not bother to listen to them. According to the plot given by the system, those two head maids of Feng Yanran had been brought over by the fourth mistress long ago.
One could say that those two maids played a significant role in shaping Feng Yanran’s idiotic and insolent personality as well as her tragic end in the future.
Now that there was such a good opportunity before her, it would not match her unforgiving character if Su Kui let it go in vain.
It would be better if she took care of these minions as early as possible because the best part had yet to come!
Then, Su Kui shouted at the door with a cold face, “Somebody, take these two maids who have betrayed their master out of here. Forbid them from stepping into my courtyard again!”
An old maidservant came in upon hearing her call, holding a bowl of lotus seed soup in her hand. Two other maids came in after her. Seeing that Su Kui had woken up, she was overjoyed. She hurried to her bed and asked with concern, “Eldest Lady, are you still feeling unwell?”
When she noticed Su Kui’s long face and the mess in front of the bed, she quickly asked what had happened.
After listening to the whole story, Mrs. Gu was enraged, and she charged at the girls who were still kneeling on the ground. She kicked them down, pointed at their nose, and yelled, “How dare you, you treacherous wenches! What did the fourth mistress reward you with to make you put your noble master aside and serve that wretched girl instead? Once I’m no longer around, you’re going to cause a major ruckus, aren’t you?”
She waved her hand and said to the two old maids, “Bring them out, lock them up in the woodshed, and hit them hard. We’ll determine what to do with them once I ask the old madam for instructions!”
Even though her eldest lady was disabled, she was still a noble lady in Grand Preceptor Residence and the apple of the old madam’s eye. No one could trample on her.
Since these two wenches were looking to get themselves killed, Mrs. Gu did not mind making an example out of them and showing every servant in the Grand Preceptor Residence who the real master was!
