Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

Chapter 524 Insolent Servants

　　In other words: there are too many eyes around. In that condition, Madam Qu wouldn't be doing anything to her.

　　Concubine Mei heaved a sigh of relief when she heard what Nan Xin said. She nodded her head and patted her daughter's hand. "That's good. You should pay more attention to what that woman wanted. It wouldn't be good if she caught onto your weakness or something like that."

　　"Xin'er knows." Nan Xin nodded obediently.

　　Even though Concubine Mei was still a bit anxious, but she tried her best to calm down.

　　That night, Nan Shu Cheng handed the power back to Madam Qu. It didn't even take one day for another large scale of servants changing to occur once more and directly attracted Nan Shu Cheng's attention.

　　Nan Hua was originally planning on staying silent since she wanted to rest. But among those who were displaced, many of them were the servants from her quarter. It would look as if the servants in her place was problematic.

　　"Miss, would you like this servant to settle this matter?" Xiao Yun asked when the servant who delivered the order had walked out.

　　"There's no need." Nan Hua stood up. She knew very well that since she was already here, it would be a waste not to make any trouble for Madam Qu. Since a chance had come from that woman's hand, why should she not use it?

　　Xiao Yun noticed that Nan Hua didn't seem to mind at all and quickly retracted any words she wanted to say. She simply followed her Miss to the main hall, carefully protecting her from behind.

　　When they arrived in the main hall, Nan Hua could see Nan Shu Cheng with a dark face. He stood in front of the servants. When he looked at Nan Hua, his eyes turned another shade darker as if he was meeting with the most annoying person in the entire world.

　　"Did you ask your servants to create trouble, Nan Hua?" Nan Shu Cheng asked without waiting for Nan Hua to finish her greetings. Considering his dark face, it was already good enough that he didn't lash out immediately.

　　Nan Hua looked at Nan Shu Cheng. "I have only returned last night. What trouble can I ask them to make?"

　　"There are mismatched accounts." Nan Shu Cheng looked at Nan Hua coldly.

　　In other words: stealing or frauds.

　　Hearing that, Nan Hua was calm and didn't look like she cared at all. She looked at Nan Shu Cheng. "Would it benefit me if I take your money when I have more than I need from Grandfather?"

　　Madam Qu was watching with a smug smile. But when she heard the sentence Nan Hua uttered, her body froze. Indeed, she had completely forgotten that Nan Hua did get a lot of money from Old Master Nan. In that case, why should she even try to steal her father's money? She already had more than enough from her grandfather for her to live well without the need to use her father's money.

　　It was absolutely unnecessary for her.

　　"Are you saying that you're not the one who give the order?" Nan Shu Cheng asked in a cold tone.

　　Nan Hua looked at her father then turned to look at the servants. "Tell me, when did I give that order to you? I'm sure the other servants should be around to bear witness when I give the order."

　　When Nan Hua was staying in Nan Family Residence, she was doing the complete opposite to what she usually did. Instead of erasing her presence, she was making her presence known at almost all the time. It would be easy for anyone to find her because she would be at a conspicuous place.

　　Aside from the time when she was supposed to be sleeping, she could be seen by the other servants.

　　The servant was stunned. "That's… it's at night. Yes, at night."

　　"My four maidservants take turns to guard at night. Which one is guarding at that time and how many of you come inside?" Nan Hua asked in a low tone. "There are guards around the quarter who also take shift at night. They might remember something."

　　The servant was speechless.

　　At this moment, Nan Shu Cheng coughed. It was only now he recalled that he did arrange for more guards around Nan Hua. They didn't report anything to him and his father had also arranged a few more people around his first daughter.

　　It shouldn't be her.

　　Nan Hua was not used to talk a lot, but it didn't mean that she was incapable of speaking to defend herself. Looking at her father, Nan Hua said each words slowly, "Are you still suspicious of me?"

　　"No."

　　After that, Nan Shu Cheng turned to look at Madam Qu and Concubine Mei. The only two who would be benefited from this incident would be either one of them. "Who arranged for these servants?"

　　"Madam Qu," Nan Hua replied. "Madam Qu was benevolent and prepared the servants on the very first day of me coming. Since I had been leaving, I don't know if there's any change in the servants."

　　With that two sentences, Nan Hua had put Madam Qu on the limelight. All the other servants attention was on Madam Qu because she was the one who indeed would benefit the most from this event.

　　The power had just returned to her hand and now it was already this way?

　　Nan Shu Cheng looked at his wife coldly, increasingly feeling that the punishment he received and money he paid to not worth as much as he thought it would be.

　　"Even if I arranged the servants, I hadn't interacted with them again." Madam Qu tried to carefully voice out her words. Right now, she was trembling in anger because she knew that if she couldn't shift this matter, the power would fall to another person once more.

　　"Is that true?" Nan Shu Cheng looked at the group of servants.

　　"Yes, yes, that's true!"
