Mrs.
Guan agreed with a tender smile and inquired, “Jia’er, why did you come here today, accusing Madam Shao of mistreating me?
Where did you hear that?
What exactly did you hear?
Please tell me.”
Guan Jialing pressed his lips together and blurted out, “That’s right.
I overheard two girls talking.
I got really angry, so I rushed over to help Mother vent her frustration!”
The couple was taken aback and simultaneously questioned, “What did they say?”
Guan Jialing was indignant, tightly pursing his lips.
“They said Madam Shao is mean and wicked.
She used foul language and even plotted to have someone hit Mother and snatch her money.
She even wanted to take me away and make me her slave.
She planned to drive our family out and forbid us from living in the backyard of the state government office!”
“She’s so awful!
So awful!
Mother, I don’t like her at all.
Tell Father to kick their family out!”
“Alright, alright.
Jia’er, did you really hear all of this?”
“Yes, yes!”
Mrs.
Guan gazed at her son and felt a bit weary, but she also trusted that he wouldn’t deceive her.
If he said so, it must be true.
Comforting her son, Mrs.
Guan instructed Zhenzhu and Jade to take him downstairs for some snacks.
Guan Jialing, still holding onto his earlier request, insisted, “I want deep-fried fish and crispy snacks tonight!”
“Alright, alright, alright.
Mother will instruct the kitchen to prepare deep-fried fish, and I’ll have someone fetch your snacks.”
Only after her son happily followed the two girls did Mrs.
Guan turn her attention to the nanny and scolded, “Are you deaf?
Why didn’t you come to me when you overheard such absurdities being uttered in front of the young master!”
Deputy Prefect Guan also frowned, his gaze stern.
It was evident that someone sought to sow discord, deliberately stirring up trouble with ill intentions.
The nanny’s face paled with fear at the gravity of the accusation.
The prospect of being blamed for such a serious matter terrified her.
“Madam, I swear I’m innocent!
I had no idea!
Young Master is so lively and active; sometimes, I may lose sight of him momentarily.
I promptly searched for him.
While I did find him quickly, there was a brief period when I wasn’t with Young Master.
Perhaps someone exploited that time!”
The nanny quickly confessed, pleading for mercy.
“It’s entirely my fault.
I shouldn’t have been careless.
I’ll learn from this mistake and be more vigilant in the future.
Please, Madam, show mercy!”
The two little girls were also frightened and joined in begging for forgiveness.
Mrs.
Guan sneered, “Do you realize the trouble your negligence has caused me?
Offering apologies won’t absolve you of responsibility!”
“I won’t dare, I won’t dare!”
Mrs.
Guan expressed her frustration, swearing, “Who is behind this?
How dare they manipulate my son like this?
I’ll find out and deal with them severely!”
Mrs.
Guan questioned the nanny and the maidservants about anyone suspicious.
Deputy Prefect Guan pondered before stating, “Madam, I suspect it wasn’t our servants.”

“Who would dare use Jia’er like this?
Our servants wouldn’t risk it.
Besides, Jia’er is still a child—impulsive and unable to restrain himself.
He likely overheard the maidservant’s conversation and jumped to conclusions.
Ask him if he heard it today.”
Mrs.
Guan snapped back to reality and hastily instructed Nanny Ding to inquire.
Nanny Ding returned promptly, nodding.
“Old Master, Madam, Young Master did indeed hear it today.
Upon hearing it, he rushed toward the banquet guests!”
