Chapter 990: Chapter 988: She Cannot Stay
Nan Shanâs words were like a knife, mercilessly and cruelly piercing Lan Shuâs heart, revealing nothing but harsh reality and unbearable pain, covered in blood and impossible to look at.
She was a bit helpless and flustered, looking at Nan Shan, she opened her mouth: "Did I, did I do something wrong? But what should I do?"
She had already done what she shouldnât have, and couldnât turn back, and the young master wanted her gone, where could she go?
Her heart was all with the young master, now that he didnât want her, where could she go?
Nan Shan looked at her pale face and sighed. She expected too much, even forgetting her own position and lost her sense of proportion.
"Things have come to this, Sister Lan Shu, you should go back to Wen Family." Nan Shan sighed, "Considering that you were sent by the Old Madam and served the young master for years, finding a steward to marry is not a problem."
"I donât want to!" Lan Shu screamed, glaring at him: "I belong to the young master, I canât marry someone else. I will beg him, I will kneel and beg him, Iâll admit my mistake, canât I? Even if I become a firewood girl, itâs fine as long as Iâm by his side, watching him from afar."
She finished speaking, stood up, and wanted to rush out.
Nan Shan hurriedly blocked her, saying: "Sister Lan Shu, donât you know what kind of temper the young master has? Do you really want to go to such a filthy place?" If she truly angered the young master, he wouldnât hesitate to sell her to such a place.
Lan Shuâs body stiffened, she stared at him for a while, then collapsed, crying loudly.
"Pack up a little, Iâll send someone to take you back tomorrow," Nan Shan comforted her a bit, then said, "Sister Lan Shu, do not wait for the young master anymore, if he wanted, he would have taken you in long ago. How many years does a womanâs prime last anyway?"
Lan Shu didnât know whether she heard him or not, she just kept crying.
Nan Shan didnât stay long, he left.
Outside the courtyard, her cry could still be heard, he shook his head involuntarily. A womanâs jealousy is terrifying, if Lan Shu hadnât come here and grown arrogant, how could she repeatedly make mistakes?
If it were at Wen Family, would she have been so careless?
Nan Shan sighed twice and went back to Wen Congruiâs side to serve.
Wen Congrui looked up at him and asked, "Is she sent away?"
"By now the afternoon has passed, Iâm thinking of arranging someone to send her back tomorrow," Nan Shan replied.
"Hmm."
"Master, do you really want Sister Lan Shu to go back? If she leaves, you wonât have someone who knows you well to serve you, regarding the household..." Nan Shan hesitated before speaking.
"I know you and her are close, but do you really think sheâs still suitable to serve by my side with her current disposition? Sheâs grown, should marry, Iâll write a letter, and let Old Madam find a suitable match for her," Wen Congrui interrupted him.
"But Sister Lan Shu cares for you..."
Wen Congrui looked at him: "I donât need a concubine maid." Pausing a moment, then said: "One with such great desires, I wouldnât dare to keep. If I keep her, would I have to constantly guard against whether she might stab me?"
Nan Shan swallowed his words upon hearing this.
"From start to finish, I never intended to take her in. Now with her having such intentions, itâs not appropriate for her to stay by my side," Wen Congrui coldly said, "Let her go, as for someone to serve, arenât there many maids at the Rear Government Office? Canât I pick one to take the lead? Just watch, choose one and personally teach her."
With such an incident, being openly humiliated by Wufu, keeping her nearby would be truly disgraceful.
