Xique stepped out just as Hong Ying approached.
Being the head maid beside Princess Nanzhang, having an air of importance was inevitable.
With a tight expression, she caught Xique and gave her a thorough scolding:
"In such a large Qingqiu Garden, not a single maid to look after it! Just because Lady Chi can't speak, you all bully her like this?!"
These words felt extremely piercing to Xique.
As for bullying, who could surpass Princess Nanzhang?
A few days ago, Madam fell ill. We sought Princess Nanzhang to invite a doctor, but she was delayed in coming.
Left without a choice, we had to trouble the Heir's wife, and only then did Princess Nanzhang send a doctor.
After being scolded, one still had to smile along.
"Qingqiu Garden is seldom visited, and Madam just awoke and is being attended to inside. I hope Sister Hong Ying will forgive us," Xique said sweetly.
In front of the doctor, Hong Ying also dared not go too far.
"Has Lady Chi awakened?" Hong Ying asked.
