with flying colors, while Jingcheng didn't even have the chance to leave here.”Waves of thanks ripple outward."This matter is very serious. It's best you get your admission notices back through legit..."Cherries, be quiet!"

Ripple interrupted Sakura's unfinished words with a stern face, pulling her face to angrily scold:

"Get down on your knees!"

Cherry was startled, and when Ripple pulled down her face, it was indeed quite frightening. Cherry immediately knelt on the ground with a thud.

As the two maids, Hongqi and Lvcui, at the door exchanged glances, they pretended not to see each other. Instead, they both perked their ears, listening intently to the sounds coming from inside the room.

With a wave of her hand, Lian Yi slapped the book "The Female Commandments" onto the table. She glared at the maid kneeling before her with shame and indignation.

"Cherry, you are my personal maidservant. Even for me, you shouldn't say such things. What is my status Don't outsiders know it, and don't you"

Then, in a hushed voice, Lian Ri said:

"Cherry, don't you remember what kind of life we lived on the estate

My mother took me back home, and that's how I have the good life now. You still get money every month, all thanks to my being obedient and well-behaved.

Today, if I went out, it would cause trouble for my mother and sister. It wouldn't be worth it in the end.

"But Miss, I think Madam doesn't really care about your marriage. Otherwise, why has there been no movement for so long I'm also worried for you, Miss."

Cherry also lowered her voice and said.

"Ouch!"

With a sigh, Lian Yi spoke softly:

"Cherries, you have to know that I wasn't raised by my mother after all. Our relationship is naturally a bit distant, and there are some things I can't hope for."

Cherry watched Ripples' helpless expression and inwardly cursed. She didn't want to meddle in Ripples' affairs, but she had to follow Madam Hou's orders.

There have been rumors circulating outside that the young lady of Marquis Hou's residence has fallen seriously ill and her life is nearing its end. This time, hosting the Springtime Banquet serves two purposes: first, to introduce potential matches for their children, and second, to have Lian Yi take her younger sister's place and make an appearance, dispelling the rumors.

In her past life, the original owner, under the instigation of Sakura, went to the back garden and saw a yard full of handsome young men. However, she was looked down upon by the maidservants in Bilin Garden, who said that she was crazy for wanting to marry anyone and that a disaster star dared to go out and see men.

But these servants don't even think, if Madam Hou hadn't agreed, with just her and a maidservant, could they have so easily gone from the side courtyard to the back garden of the Marquis's mansion Were all the maidservants and servant girls along the way just decorations

Now that it's changed to ripples, how could she possibly let Madam Hou's scheme succeed She definitely wouldn't step out of this courtyard unless Madam Hou came in person and made it clear that she was doing this for her good sister to quell the rumors. Otherwise, she wouldn't go anywhere.

"Miss, it is precisely because your relationship with the mistress has faded that you must plan for yourself."

Cherry refused to give up and still wanted to continue persuading, but she was interrupted by Ripple.

"Don't say any more, the more times like this, the more we can't upset mother."

"Miss"

"You're getting more and more presumptuous, just because you're an elder around me. Do you think you're my boss"

With a narrowed gaze, Ripples spoke with displeasure.

"I dare not!"

Sakura immediately bowed her head, fearing that if she continued persuading, it would arouse ripples of suspicion.

As punishment, you'll be kneeling here. I won't let you up until I say so, and no one can plead on your behalf.

Ripples said coldly.

A treacherous maidservant, she would not hesitate to punish harshly.

Cherry was so angry she felt like she would explode, but nominally she was Ripple's maid. She could only kneel on the ground with red eyes, her heart filled with misery.

The ripple pressed her cherry and continued to read "The Ring of Women."

As for Duo Duo, she had already slipped away to the back garden to play. Over this past month, Duo Duo had explored every corner of Hou Mansion.

After the spring, besides those evergreens, some flowers also popped up, becoming a pair of eyes. Any movement in Hou Mansion, DuoDuo would know about it.

Do Do specially went to see Xue Lianyi, who was recuperating at the Hou Mansion. Looking at the other party's face, which was exactly the same as her master's, she was also very curious. But after a while, she didn't like Xue Lianyi. Who would have thought that the other party had some heavy blood煞 energy on their body. Don't look at the other party's young age, but their hands were also stained with human lives.

Dodo satisfied her curiosity and never went to Miss Jiao's residence again. Today, the Hou Mansion held a spring banquet, so Dodo went to watch the festivities.

The cherry knelt for more than an hour, and her legs began to give way. However, Ripple didn't say a word, and she didn't dare get up. After all, the young mistress punished her for a reason.

Grandma Sun strolled around the outer courtyard, clearing the path from Bilin Garden to the back garden of everyone. However, she still couldn't see Lianyi and Sakura coming. So, she immediately returned to Bilin Garden.

Red Radiance and Green Emerald saw Granny Sun approaching, immediately bowing respectfully. Then they winked at Granny Sun, motioning for her to look at the cherry kneeling on the ground.

Grandma Sun's eyes flashed, and she immediately spoke:

"Miss, may I come in"

"Grandmother Sun, come in!"

Ripples put down the book in her hands and replied softly.

After Grandmother Sun came in, she bowed respectfully. Seeing Sakura kneeling on the ground, she smiled and began to speak:

"Miss, what did Sakura do to make you so angry"

This little girl takes advantage of being around the elderly and becomes increasingly tactless in her speech!

Grandma Sun will have to be stricter with her from now on. Don't spoil her too much, or when she causes big trouble in the future and implicates you and me, it will be too late to regret.

Ripple frowned, saying.

"The old servant will listen to the young mistress. After all, Sakura is still young, and rules should be taught gradually. Besides, she has her heart set on you. This time, don't punish her too harshly."

Grandma pleaded for mercy.

"This time, I'll spare you because of your grandmother. No need to kneel down, go away!"

The ripple waved goodbye.

Cherry just stood up, but unfortunately because she had knelt for too long, she stumbled and almost lost her balance. Luckily, Grandma Sun reached out to help her, steadying her.

Cherry gritted her teeth and excused herself from Lianyi and Grandma Sun, then slowly moved out of the room. Hatred surged in her eyes; one day she would make them pay for all the wrongs they had done to her.

Ripples watched Sakura's retreating figure and shook her head, sighing.

"After returning to the Hou Mansion, Cherry has become increasingly unruly. This time, she even dared to persuade me to sneak out to the Chunri Banquet. I've demoted her to a second-class maidservant and promoted Hong Xi to be my personal maid."

Grandma Sun didn't care about Lianyi's decision. Anyway, everyone in the yard was arranged by Madam Hou, so it didn't matter who served the young lady.

Yes, Miss.

With a nod, she picked up the book again and continued reading without asking Granny Sun any more questions.

Nanny Sun didn't know what to say for a moment. The young lady wouldn't leave the house, and she couldn't possibly force her to go. If the young lady said something wrong, she would be the one punished in the end. Finally, she backed out and went to see Madam Hou in the front courtyard.

"Little bitch, you remember to follow the rules at this time"

Housewife Hou was somewhat displeased, but she was also rather helpless. She couldn't possibly knock the person unconscious and take them to the back garden, could she That would only confirm the rumors even more.

"Madam, what shall we do now"
