Chapter 819 I feel pity for them
Ye Qingmei sighed. How many times has this happened?
Every time the topic of Ye Lianmian came up, she would end up getting sick, as if to warn her that if she said anything bad about Ye Lianmian again, he would kill her.
Ye Qingmei was also tired, but she couldn't just ignore it, so she could only sigh and take Ye Chulian home to visit. By the way, she went to the clinic to call Bai Chuxiao back and asked her to take a good look at Mu's illness to see if it was a real illness or a fake one.
At the east end of the house, Nanny Ji stood in front of Madam Mu's couch, holding a basket of fruit in her hands. She was saying to Madam Mu, "The eldest daughter of the Jiang family said that this fruit was brought back from the south by her uncle. It is very rare in the capital, so she sent it to you, Madam, to try."
Madam Mu lay on the couch, not even glancing at it, listless, and only said casually: "Put it there!"
Madam Ji looked at her for a while and added, "The eldest lady of the Jiang family has already made her feelings for the eldest young master clear. Although the eldest young master refused, he also told his family the reason for his refusal very clearly. It was because of family affairs and he felt that he was not worthy of that girl. This old servant thought that the eldest young master was a little too picky about this matter. In fact, with our eldest young master's family background, even if he didn't rely on the military exploits of the two generals, he still had the fourth young lady, the empress! If he married the Jiang family, it would be too high for the eldest lady of the Jiang family to marry.
The eldest young master is thin-skinned and too upright, so you, Madam, should make more arrangements for him on some matters.
Take the Jiang family's matter for example. If Madam can mediate for the young master, the relationship between the two families and the two children will gradually ease. All parents in the world want their children to live well. Maybe if Madam can cheer up and focus more on the children in front of her, she can live a prosperous life and her health will also be much better. "
Madam Mu turned her head and looked at her for a while, frowning and saying, "Madam, are you teaching me how to do things? I know you are from the Ji family, and although you are a slave, you are of noble status. But these things are my family's affairs, and Madam doesn't need to interfere too much. You are the one given to Yan'er by the Emperor, and now Yan'er is not at home, so why don't you go back to Yanhua Palace or Quanzhou first! I don't need to serve you here."
Nanny Ji's face did not change at all, and she continued in a calm tone, "Before the Empress left, she asked me to take good care of the Madam and the family, so I couldn't leave no matter what. I am now the Empress's servant, so even if the Emperor personally asked me to leave, I would not leave unless the Empress gave the order."
Mu snorted coldly, "After all, she stayed to monitor me. She never believed me."
Nanny Ji didn't want to argue with her about this matter. This lady's mind had been twisted for a long time. When the fourth young lady was at home, she could talk to her more and comfort her. She would get better. But once the fourth young lady left, she went astray and no one could pull her back. The fourth young lady couldn't always stay with her, so there was nothing she could do.
"Madam, are you really not going to accept this fruit?" Nanny Ji asked again.
Mu shook his head. "No, you don't have to preach to me. My children and grandchildren have their own blessings. They are all grown up. If I have to worry about everything, there will be no end to it."
Nanny Ji was simply speechless about this lady. If it weren't for her relationship with Ye Wenyan, she would not have paid any attention to Mu.
But thinking about Ye Wenyan and the young masters and young ladies in the Ye family who treated her very well, she still patiently advised: "Even the old lady Ye, before the two masters got married, was also thinking about her son and went around to find a husband for her son."
"Her?" Madam Mu laughed. "If you want to compare me with her, then don't do it."
Nanny Ji shook her head and said, "I'm not comparing you to the old lady, I'm just reminding the first lady not to do things more ruthlessly than the old lady Ye did back then." Nanny Ji was already very impolite at this time, "Madam, do you feel that everyone has wronged the second young lady? To the point that you now see everyone as an enemy, and feel that they have wronged the second young lady, so you simply don't care about them and let them live on their own. But have you ever thought about how the second young lady had ever been worthy of everyone when she was alive?"
Nanny Ji knew everything about Ye Lianmian's situation. There was no outsider in the room at the moment, so she had no reservations about what she said.
"I thought that you were a sensible mother. With the experience of Old Madam Ye, you should treat your children better and not repeat the same mistakes. But now it seems that I have misjudged you and overestimated you. I didn't expect you to be so stubborn! I feel sorry for you, and I also feel sorry for the young masters and young ladies in the family."
After saying this, Nanny Ji picked up the basket of fruit and left. She closed the door a little too hard, making a loud bang that startled Madam Mu.
She repeatedly thought about what Nanny Ji had said, but after thinking it over, she still didn't feel that she had done anything wrong.
She had been good enough to the children now, and she had not let any of them down. The only person she was sorry for was her second daughter, Ye Lianmian. As a mother, she could not even save the life of that child, and had to watch her die in front of her. For a mother, this was more than torture, it was simply a fate worse than death.
The eldest brother just wanted to propose a marriage. She had originally agreed to the marriage, but the eldest brother was being awkward and repeatedly refusing. What else could she do? Should she take the initiative to make peace with the Jiang family and then take back the marriage? She couldn't afford to lose face.
Perhaps she would have done it in the past. She used to love her children so much that she even put herself last and only cared about these children.
But now think about it, she really fed the dog, and gave birth to a bunch of ungrateful wolves after ten months of pregnancy.
The more Mrs. Mu thought about it, the more she felt wronged. She felt sorry for her second daughter, and she also felt that her surviving children were all bastards.
In the end, she even started to curse, saying that people like Ye Jinggui would not produce any good offspring, and even said that she finally understood why her mother-in-law didn't like her eldest son. A son like that was not worth liking!
The maid Dannuo did not dare to enter the room and could only stand guard at the door. She also carefully apologized to Madam Ji: "The eldest lady is ill. She was not like this originally. Madam, please do not blame her."
Nanny Ji sighed, said nothing, and walked out with the basket.
Can she blame the Mu family? Actually, she can't blame them. She is just a servant, and if she wants to blame someone, she should blame the Ye family.
But even though she felt that Mu was wrong in every way, at that moment just now, when she heard her scolding Ye Jinggui, she felt that she was right.
The Ye family is really a headache.
