Watching the maid retreat and leave, Madam Xue felt even more helpless and shook her head.
"I hope this punishment will make Manyu reflect and repent."
However, she didn't hold much hope for that, as the nature of her daughter was set in stone, irreversible. Sometimes she even wondered if someone switched her child at birth.
Otherwise, how could it be that out of her five children, only Xue Manyu was such a character?
...
"Sister Hua, something terrible has happened."
In the courtyard of Xue Manyu, the maids had completely let loose due to their young mistress being punished and confined in the Ancestral Shrine.
Usually, no one would dare to raise their voice in the courtyard, but now no one cared anymore. A little maid dashed in from outside, screaming as she ran.
"What's the matter that you're so panicked? Don't you know this is Third Miss's courtyard? If Third Miss finds out, she won't spare you!"
