Chapter 727: Fell Out of Favor
Chapter 727: Fell Out of Favor
It was at this time Madam Qu realized that Nan Shu Cheng treasured his children more. In the past, Nan Shu Cheng never had much qualm punishing the two children of Madam Nan. However, he never treated his son that badly.
It showed how much Nan Shu Cheng actually cared for his sons.
Tears were flowing out of Madam Qu’s eyes. “You actually want more sons, aren’t you? Isn’t Hou Xiang enough?”
If another concubine were to have a son, Madam Qu had the feeling that Nan Shu Cheng might not even pick Nan Hou Xiang as his successor anymore. At that time, she knew that whatever she was planning to do would be useless.
She couldn’t lose her son’s position in Nan Shu Cheng’s heart.
As Madam Qu struggled to get up, she noticed Nan Hua stood at the side. Her anger immediately flared up. “What are you doing here? Watching the show? Get lost you #$%^&*(!”
Nan Hua simply watched from a distance as Madam Qu cursed and threw tantrum like a shrew. The servants around her were all amazed as Madam Qu spewed more and more curses.
They felt that even the common thugs would not have as much vocabulary as Madam Qu.
“Mother!”
Nan Hou Xiang rushed over and saw his mother in this state. His heart sank because he understood that this would mean that the servants had seen his mother in such miserable state.
With this, how could she possibly establish her authority?
“Hou Xiang, get that b*tch out!”
Nan Hou Xiang furrowed his eyebrows. He looked at the side and saw Nan Hua stood far away. In fact, Nan Hua didn’t even come close to Madam Qu’s Quarter but only a few steps away from her quarter’s gate.
However, her standing position was right in front of Madam Qu’s vision. This caused Madam Qu to be so angry because he saw her.
Nan Hou Xiang immediately stood in the direction where Nan Hua was located. “Mother, please have some rest, alright?”
“Hou Xiang!”
“Mother, please wake up and look around you!” Nan Hou Xiang yelled back. For the first time in his life, he felt that his mother was hopeless. There was nothing that he could do to help his mother anymore.
Madam Qu was stunned then her dull eyes began to look at her surroundings. With her showing such a sight in front of others, how could she possibly hope to establish her authority again?
The servants would only look at her with contempt.
Don’t underestimate the power of reputation and favor because for them, it was everything. Even if they used to be powerful, once they fell out of favor, then everything would disappear.
“Help me up…”
Nan Hou Xiang signaled the maidservants to help his mother as he watched from the side. He truly wondered why only his mother was making trouble for him from time to time. Couldn’t she behave herself and made sure that everything was fine for him?
Even Nan Xin’s mother always behaved herself and thought of her daughter first.
As her son, why can’t Madam Qu do the same to him?
Countless thoughts swirled within Nan Hou Xiang’s mind before he suppressed it all. He couldn’t pick what kind of parents he had. It was just his luck and fate to be tied with Madam Qu for the rest of his life.
Taking a deep breath, Nan Hou Xiang turned around.
At this time, he saw Nan Hua walked in unhurried pace back to her quarter. It was as if she was only there in order to watch the show then returned when everything was over. This caused Nan Hou Xiang’s heart to be swelled in anger once more.
How could she?
To think that Nan Hua dared to watch and mocked his mother like this….
“Young Master.”
“Let’s go. I’m late now.” Nan Hou Xiang knew that he had some lessons in the academy, but because of the commotion his mother caused, he would be late. He had been punished because of his declining result lately, so he had to start making up for it soon or he might be kicked out of the academy because of his attitude.
“Yes, Young Master.”
Nan Hou Xiang soon left.
Nan Hua had returned to her quarter. She basically did nothing but stand and watched from a distance, but she had caused Madam Qu to lose her temper in front of so many servants. It seemed that Madam Qu hated Nan Hua to the bone and didn’t want to be seen in such miserable state by Nan Hua.
The four servants around her felt that their young miss was really amazing. She didn’t even lift a finger, but she had further caused Madam Qu to be unable to establish her authority.
“Young Miss, would you like to embroider today?”
“Mhm…”
Nan Hua nodded then furrowed her eyebrows. She felt a pang of pain in her left arm, but she couldn’t sense anyone attacking her. At this moment, she immediately thought of her twin older brother.
“Mu Yan.”
“Yes, Miss.”
“Ask for news regarding Luo.”
Luo?
Mu Yan’s heart thumped. She and Xiao Yun knew that the twins had some kind of connection with each other. If one experienced immense pain or got hurt, the other party would be able to sense it.
Did Nan Hua just sense that Nan Luo got hurt?
In that case, she better hurry.
If something really happened to Nan Luo, Nan Hua would not hesitate to abandon everything in this place and rushed over. After all, there was no one more important to Nan Hua more than her twin brother.
So what if her schemes failed?
She only needed to be more patient and scheme again after making sure that her twin was fine.
“Yes, Miss.”
Xiao Yun also understood what had happened and looked at Nan Hua with worry. At this moment, there was a sleeping wolf that was about to be awakened should there be more bad news.
