Chapter 155: Eyeing her dowry?
Zi'er didn't quite understand what the Madam was up to. Sima Yue actually wanted all of the Madam's dowry and workshop in public. His appetite was too big. She didn't expect that the Madam was willing to give it to her. She even promised in front of the old lady to hand over the power at the year-end banquet?
How could she bear to give away her dowry and everything she had worked hard for?
Li Qingwan was still leisurely feeding the fish, when a large fish suddenly jumped up and bit the food in her hand...
"Ma'am, be careful!"
"No problem!"
Li Qingwan took a few steps back, and the fish fell into the pond again, splashing all over the pond. When seeing this scene, Li Qingwan was not angry, but seemed very happy.
"I've fed you enough, now you want to bully your master, right?"
These words seemed to be spoken to Yu'er, but there was something else behind her words.
Zi'er: "..."
"Madam, what you are saying is..."
Li Qingwan then stood up and tidied her clothes, then looked up at Zi'er with a smile on her face, "Zi'er, when have you ever seen me do something I regret?"
"But Madam, this is too easy for Sima Yue. Have you forgotten that he gave birth to an illegitimate child with Xiuzhu without your knowledge and he also lied to you..."
"I didn't forget!"
Of course she didn't forget. How could she forget these resentments and deep hatreds? It was impossible for her to forget them. The reason why she agreed to Sima Yue's request was also a temporary measure. She wanted him to behave himself for a month and not cause trouble for her.
Sima Yue has already noticed the relationship between her and Mu Shenyin. Given his character, he will not let her go, so using these things to restrain Sima Yue is the best way at the moment.
As for her dowry and workshop, including all the property of the Sima family, she would not give up an inch of it. Not only did she want to protect her own interests, she also wanted to make the Sima family a laughing stock!
"And you said..."
"Just give it to him. You don't need to ask any more questions. By the end-of-year banquet, everything will have a result."
"result?"
Zi'er frowned. What's the result?
"lady!"
Just as Zi'er was about to ask something, Ah Qing's anxious voice came from outside, "Madam, Manager Lin is here and has something important to discuss with you."
"what's up?"
Not far away, Manager Lin came hurriedly. When he saw Madam feeding the fish, Manager Lin stepped forward anxiously and saluted her, "Madam, you'd better go to the workshop. We can't work anymore."
Li Qingwan frowned slightly at what Manager Lin said, but she was not impatient. She poured a cup of tea and handed it to Manager Lin. "Don't worry, tell me slowly. What happened in the workshop?"
"Madam, isn't she Wang Po hired by the old lady? She is now showing off in the workshop, acting like the old lady's supervisor. Everyone is afraid of her. You should find a way to make her leave, otherwise..."
"Uh, Wang Po has already started?"
"Yes, she has known that you were avoiding her on purpose for a long time. She has been causing trouble in the workshop these days and even said that she wanted to show you how she manages the workshop. Yesterday, she almost had a fight with Hu Zi."
"Did you hit him?"
"Everyone has been persuaded to stop, but you also know who Hu Zi is. He doesn't listen to Wang Po's words. He only listens to you!"
"Madam, it's obvious that this old lady Wang is here to cause trouble on purpose. We have to find a way to get rid of her."
Zi'er knew that Wang Po was sent by the old lady to monitor the lady. The lady had not met her in the past few days just to give her the cold shoulder. Unexpectedly, she started to throw a tantrum first.
"Drive away?"
Li Qingwan shook her head. She looked at the fish in the pond and loved them very much. "We can't drive her away. Even if the workshop collapses, Wang Po will still be there."
"Madam, what do you mean by that? Just because she is the old lady's person, can we really do nothing to her?"
Manager Lin is Madam's man now, so naturally he has to consider Madam's interests. The Sima family always sends people to the workshop to give orders. Aren't they just monitoring Madam, fearing that she has ulterior motives towards the Sima family?
"Who said there's no way to deal with her? You go back first, I'll come in the afternoon!"
Li Qingwan deliberately avoided seeing Wang Po these days, just to curb her arrogance, but she didn't expect that she was still as stupid and impatient as Nanny Zhang. Couldn't the old woman find someone of equal strength to deal with her?
"Yes!"
After Manager Lin left, Ah Qing also sat next to Li Qingwan, "Madam, why don't you let Ah Qing deal with this old woman?"
"No need. The old lady is already suspicious of us. Now if something happens to Wang Po again, she will be even more suspicious."
"What should we do? Should we let a woman ride on our heads?"
"She won't be able to show off for many days!"
Li Qingwan looked towards the distance, "I forgot to ask the manager just now, has Xiuzhu reported to the workshop?"
"I haven't seen this woman, ma'am. Do you still plan to let her go to the workshop?"
"She shouldn't not go. Could it be Sima Yue..."
“Qingwan, Qingwan!”
Not far away, Sima Yue was already rushing towards her with his men. He was holding a food box in his hand and looked very happy.
"Madam, Sima Yue is here. Look at his face, it's really disgusting. I have never seen a man who covets his wife's dowry. He is really a piece of shit!"
Zi'er knew that if it weren't for the Madam using her dowry to support the Sima family over the years, this large family would have fallen apart and starved, and would not have been able to live the rich and glorious life they have today. But the people of the Sima family have never treated the Madam as one of their own, and even now, they still covet her dowry!
How abominable!
"Sima Yue is nothing at all. This lady has seen through him a long time ago. Ah Qing, go find out who that miracle doctor is and make sure you get his leg treatment formula."
Ah Qing understood immediately after hearing this, "Madam, you want to..."
"Go ahead. I want to know before dark."
Soon, Ah Qing left, and Sima Yue came over with a smile, looking flattering, "Qing Wan, you are here."
"What's so happy about Ah Yue?"
"Look, what did your husband bring you?"
Sima Yue put the food box down himself, and then kept it a secret for her to open, "Open it and see if you like it?"
Zi'er felt disgusted when she saw Sima Yue's flattering face. If he didn't covet the lady's dowry and the power in her hands, why would he be so good to the lady?
It's all fake!
"Ayue, what is this?"
"Would you know if you open it and take a look?"
Li Qingwan coughed a few times deliberately, nodded, and opened the food box herself. When she opened it, there was a plate of exquisite snacks inside. Seeing this, Li Qingwan raised her eyes and looked at Sima Yue, "Ayue, what's going on?"
"I remember you said at that time that you liked to eat the cakes from Fu Man Lou. Today, your husband personally queued up to buy them for you. They are very fresh. Come and try them. How do you like them?"
