Chapter 177 She's so arrogant, I'll teach her a lesson
Wei Jingshu hurriedly patted Zheng Yuanshan's chest and gave him some water to help him breathe better.
Zheng Anning straightened her small waist, patted her small chest, and said proudly: "Hey, Dad, I know I'm great, you don't have to be so excited, right?"
"After you get out, don't tell them I taught you that"
"what!"
Wei Jingshu looked at Zheng Anning's smug little look, then glanced at Zheng Yuanshan's hopeless look, and laughed secretly, hahahaha, this is so funny.
"No, ma'am."
A scream came from outside the door, and the maid Lianyu hurriedly ran in from outside the yard.
"Madam, someone came from the palace and said that the Queen Mother had issued an edict, asking a few maids to teach Miss Six the rules and etiquette."
Wei Jingshu waved his hand calmly, just as he was about to let Zheng Anning pass.
Zheng An Ning said: "Let them wait, or just take them to a remote yard to stay, and tell them not to bother me."
Lianyu was shocked when she heard this, but she forced herself to remain calm. This, this..., she looked at Wei Jingshu.
"Not appropriate. Let's go and receive the order. Don't let anyone catch us." Wei Jingshu spoke slowly and glanced at Zheng An Ning with dissatisfaction.
"This is outrageous. Our Zheng family is a family of loyal ministers, not treacherous ones. Don't let people think that the Zheng family is going to rebel one day. You are really lawless." Wei Jingshu poked his finger towards Zheng An Ning's forehead.
Zheng Yuanshan also put his hands behind his back and said in agreement, "Well, An An, you should learn some rules and temper yourself. You are becoming more and more outrageous."
"Dad, no need!"
Zheng An Ning had thought about so much but never thought about learning the rules. [That's ok, those maids definitely don't really want to teach me, maybe they are just trying to torture me!]
Zheng Yuanshan and Wei Jingshu looked at each other and thought it made sense, but they couldn't reject it.
Zheng An Ning was not afraid. They were just maids. She would let them see the three pieces of ghost clothes at night, and they would leave in a hurry tomorrow.
Hey, you can take your time playing!
In the front yard and the hall, Madam Rong and a few other maids stood there with their heads held high, like a proud rooster. She had been standing there for half an hour and her neck was sore, but no one from the Zheng family came.
"Where are the people? Is this the etiquette and rules of the Zheng family? You can't even offer a cup of tea? And you neglect the people from the palace?" Madam Rong shook her sleeves on the spot, looking angry and staring at Butler Ma with a ferocious expression.
"It's like this, Madam. My young lady has been studying since she came back today. My master is teaching her personally and doesn't allow anyone to disturb her. So I'm sorry to trouble you all. Please sit down for a moment. I'll ask someone to prepare tea and snacks." Butler Ma said soothingly with a smile on his face, but his expression was neither humble nor arrogant.
"Hmph, the Zheng family is nothing but so-so." Aunt Rong snorted coldly and sat down on the chair. She didn't dare to sit in the main seat. She was just a servant. No matter how arrogant she was, she couldn't humiliate the prime minister.
The nanny behind her, a stern-looking one, advised Rong Mama in a flattering manner.
"Yes. Sister, please don't be angry. It's not worth it to get angry."
"Yeah, it's not worth getting angry."
"Humph,"
Wei Jingshu came over with Zheng An Ning, and happened to hear her snort. She smiled and said, "Oh, it's unfortunate. I'm busy. Please don't be offended, ladies."
"Madam Zheng, I think you are not busy, but you are really showing off your power, right?" Rong Ma looked directly into Wei Jingshu's eyes with a sharp look.
She has always had a high opinion of herself, relying on the fact that she is the empress dowager's right-hand man, and she doesn't take these ladies seriously.
"How dare I? Mammy misunderstood me for waiting."
"In that case, kneel down and accept my order!"
Unexpectedly, Wei Jingshu and Zheng Anning did not move and had no intention of kneeling down.
"Kneel down and accept the order. Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Madam Rong's face suddenly turned gloomy and she asked through gritted teeth.
"Who are you? You are just a slave, yet you dare to make us kneel?" Zheng An Ning scratched his ear impatiently and spoke first.
"If you want to talk, then go away. You are just a slave, and you dare to show off in my Zheng family. Who gave you the courage?"
Zheng An Ning looked at her with disdain, she had never been a submissive person, she was rebellious by nature, she would only respond to soft words and not to tough ones, no matter how arrogant she was, she would teach her a lesson.
"You, you are absolutely lawless. You don't even take the Queen Mother seriously. Do you still have respect for others?"
"Empress Dowager? Mother, what does the Empress Dowager have to do with this? The Empress Dowager is not here," Zheng Anning spread her hands innocently and asked her mother.
Wei Jingshu led Zheng An Ning to the main seat, moving gracefully and elegantly. She sat down domineeringly and looked at them with a disdainful look, "Madame Rong, our Zheng family is not something that can be bullied by just any cat or dog. We respect the Queen Mother, but if..."
Having said this, she paused, and with her majestic and oppressive demeanor, she pressed towards Rong Mama and the others.
"But if the Queen Mother's dog doesn't know what to do, I don't mind teaching her what the rules are."
Wei Jingshu spoke with great momentum, his eyes full of threats, and swept an indifferent look at everyone.
Zheng Anning turned into a fangirl, constantly chirping in her heart, [Ah, my mother is so handsome, I like her so much! ]
[So cool, this temperament is worthy of my mother, and she has my style. 】
Madam Rong was stunned on the spot. She didn't expect that a mere prime minister's wife could have such imposing manner.
"Hmph, you are just the prime minister's wife, and you dare to offend the empress dowager?" Rong Mama spoke contemptuously, with an arrogant attitude and not the slightest panic.
"Oh! Then please!" Wei Jingshu took the tea and took a sip.
"you......."
Rong Mama didn't know what to do for a moment. Should she go back in disgrace? Get kicked out?
Zheng An Ning looked at Rong Mama with a smile. This old thing relied on the Queen Mother and took advantage of her power. She even looked down on the ladies of the court.
Rong Mama was helpless, "The Queen Mother has ordered that the Zheng family's little girl is rude and doesn't know the rules and etiquette, so she has asked four maids to teach her."
The four maids behind her came forward to pay their respects, looking arrogant and solemn. "Mrs. Wei, are you well?"
"Please introduce yourselves. What can you do? What can't you do? Give me a reason why we should use you. What are your advantages?" Zheng Anning asked casually while crossing his legs.
Several maids:............
"Tell me? Why did you come to Zheng's house?"
Zheng Anning gloated over his misfortune. He finally understood why the interviewers asked these questions. This is called oppression.
Aunt Rong looked at Zheng An Ning as if she were mentally retarded, wondering if she had a serious illness or not, and she even said that the Queen Mother had sent her here.
One of them looked kind and spoke respectfully, "My dear lady, I am Chunhua, you can call me Nanny Hua. I was sent here by the Empress Dowager. I am good at making incense, flower arrangement, and tea..."
Madam Rong glared at Chunhua with a threatening look, indicating that she should know her identity.
"My servant Xia He,"
"Slave Qiulan"
"Slave Dongya"
The other people had no expression on their faces. They just said their names with a haughty look on their faces without introducing themselves.
"It's like this. Since you were sent by the Queen Mother, you have to pay for accommodation and transportation. We, the Zheng family, are not responsible. If anything happens to you, it's none of our business."
