CapĂtulo 2408: Chapter 2405: Nanny Guoâs Subtle Hints
Among them were even some familiar items, the very ones she had initially noticed in the storeroom. Later, when she went to find them, they were gone, but Elder Qi San had given a reasonable explanation, saying they were gifts.
At that time, she didnât give it much thought, trusting his words completely without a hint of suspicion.
Surely, they were indeed gifts.
The Third Madam scoffed lightly, her eyes reddening as she looked at Qi Yun and his mother standing by the large water basin with lotus flowers, as if mocking her for being deceived for so many years.
Qi Yunâs eyes grew more vigilant, and he instinctively stepped back two steps, taking Madame Yue with him.
Just as the Third Madam harbored murderous intent towards Qi Yun and his mother, suddenly, with a thump, a servant boy dashed over: âThird Madam, this is bad, people from the residence have come, arranged by the elder master.â
âStop them for me.â As soon as the Third Madam heard in the name of Minister Qi, she knew the residence surely wanted to protect Qi Yun, forcing her to watch this mother and son remain in the Qi Family to spite her.
This made the Third Madam increasingly violent, pointing at Qi Yun and his mother: âGuards, seize them for me!â
Qi Yunâs expression changed slightly, pulling Madame Yue as he dashed toward the main entrance.
He wasnât foolish; the more crowded the place, the more apprehensive Third Lady of the Qi Family would be. If they were in a dark alley, perhaps she would instruct the servants to kill him and his mother discreetly. With the Qi Familyâs influence, the Third Lady wouldnât face any trouble, but he wanted to live.
âQuickly, stop that little brat,â the Third Lady Qi screamed.
Instantly, a group of servants surrounded the two.
.
Qi Yun moved adeptly, leveraging his initial advantage, breaking through the weaker spots.
Thus he truly managed to run out of the courtyard, nearly reaching the main entrance.
He failed only because Madame Yue was unwell, unable to bear it, held back by servants. Qi Yun couldnât simply watch his mother being taken and leave alone, hence they were both stopped.
âLet go of my mother, you wicked people,â Qi Yun angrily screamed, directly kicking and punching the servants.
Nanny Guo arrived to see a chaotic scene of servants and a young boy tangled together.
Her gaze fell on Minister Qiâs housekeeper standing nearby, her pupils constricted as she hurriedly walked in, seeing the Third Madam glaring furiously at the mother and son.
âYoung Miss,â Nanny Guo was the Third Madamâs nanny, accompanying her since she got married, sharing a bond unlike others.
And with Nanny Guoâs arrival, the Third Madamâs uncontrolled emotions were somewhat soothed.
âNanny Guo, why are you here?â The Third Madam took a deep breath, calming herself as she questioned.
âYoung Miss, after you left, Senior Lady came over, saying the elder master intends to bring the child back to the residence.â Seeing the Third Madamâs face darken, she quickly added: âYoung Miss, thatâs not the main issue. Itâs about what Third Master left behind; the elder masterâs meaning seems to be taking it all.â
âWhat?â The Third Madam nearly uttered through clenched teeth.
âYoung Miss, you mustnât act rashly; itâs beneficial for the child to return, to be listed under your name. The elder master, regardless of appearances or other reasons, surely wonât leave nothing for the Third Household. Consider the little young misses who are married, and didnât the elder master know about Third Masterâs actions?â
In front of too many people, even speaking softly, Nanny Guo couldnât directly say the Qi Familyâs Elder Qi San deceived the young miss for the entire Qi Family.
