CapĂtulo 2405: Chapter 2402: Madame Yue Kept in an Outside Residence
Anyway, the Third Madam wonât let her off this time.
âGreetings, Senior Lady.â The trusted nanny bowed to the Senior Lady.
âNanny Guo, you should know about this matter, right? The Master has already given instructions. You are an old member of the family, and I believe the Third Madam would listen to what you say. I will send two servant girls with you to bring her back.â
The trusted nanny asked calmly, âWhom does the Senior Lady mean to bring back?â
âBring that child back. This is the Masterâs wish.â Though the Lady of the Qi Family felt dissatisfied, she understood well that Minister Qiâs authority at home was unquestionable.
What she said might not necessarily be heeded by the servants in the Southern Garden, but anything said by Minister Qi would leave them no room for dissent.
Even the Third Master Qi, in the past, worked under Minister Qi.
Indeed, upon hearing this, Nanny Guo and others showed a slight change in expression but dared not voice any opposition.
Minister Qi was like the heavens in the Qi family, with great authority.
âSenior Lady, I will go and call the Third Madam back right away, and once she returns, I will send someone to inform you.â Nanny Guo was smart enough not to offend the Lady of the Qi Family with her words.
âHowever, the Third Madam is truly distressed, and it might take some time. I hope the Senior Lady will understand.â
The Lady of the Qi Family slowly stood up. âWhat happened to Third Brother is indeed regrettable. I can understand that such a small matter is not worth fussing over. But Nanny Guo, you must persuade Third Brotherâs Wife well. After all, that child is Third Brotherâs child. Bring him back, and the Master will decide how to handle it.â
Upon hearing this, Nanny Guo already understood that there was no way the child could be left outside the manor.
Disregarding any compassion or the pride in the Senior Ladyâs words, she worried that if she delayed, the Third Madam might do something even worse.
After sending off the Senior Lady, Nanny Guo hurriedly took her people and quickly headed outside the manor.

At the same time.
In East City.
Inside a two-entry courtyard.
A farce was unfolding.
The Third Lady of the Qi Family sat on a chair, looking at the still-attractive woman kneeling on the ground in front of her, with not a hint of a smile on her face. She touched her long fingers, âMadame Yue, youâve deceived me so thoroughly!â
âAll these years, when you saw me, you must have been laughing at me, right?â
âMadam, no, I didnât⊠I didnât want to be with the Third Master either, it was him⊠Moreover, thereâs the child, I just wanted the child to live well. I wronged you, Iâm sorryâŠâ Madame Yue knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, overwhelmed with sorrow.
The Third Madam snorted coldly, âDo you think Iâll believe you?â
âThird Madam, everything I say is true. If I had any intention of gaining something, perhaps after giving birth to Yunâer, I could have asked the Third Master to let me enter the house. But after so many years, I never did anything like that, which is proof enough that I never had any extravagant wishes.â
âItâs just that now that the Third Master is gone, youâve gained nothing, so of course, you have no such thoughts. Besides, maybe you donât have such thoughts, but the Third Master was always planning for you.â
âIf not for the Third Masterâs accident, maybe in ten years, the Third Branch of the Qi Family would have no place for me. By then, I would have had to make room for you.â As the Third Madam spoke, she was consumed with anger and suddenly stood up.
With a bang, the stool in front of her was smashed to pieces.
âAhâŠâ Madame Yue stifled her voice, letting out a small scream.
Suddenly.
A figure burst out from the side room, Qi Yun lunged toward Madame Yue.
