Chapter 740: Compensate Five Hundred Taels (4)_1
Hong Xia took two steps forward, her eyes reddening as she shed tears of grievance, "Third Miss..."
Her face was swollen, a bright red handprint stark against her skin. Pei Qian glared at Fang Hui with a fierce and spiteful gaze, "Who do you think you are to lay a hand on my maid!?"
Fang Hui’s face turned ashen, indignant and frustrated, she spat out, "She’s just a servant, doesn’t know the first thing about etiquette or rules, what’s wrong with me hitting her once!?"
"A servant she may be, but she’s a servant of my household! What gives you the right to come into our home and strike my maid, smash our property!?" Pei Qian roared furiously.
"You... You scold me without asking for details first!? I’m your aunt by marriage, your elder, and you forget all decorum and morals to curse at me!?" Fang Hui was also furious.
"I’m not asking for details?! On what grounds did you hit my maid?! And dare you say you didn’t smash the jade sculpture!?" Pei Qian was so filled with rage she wanted to beat her. Worthless scum! Some aunt! Worse than an animal!
Feng Shouxing, face pale as death, hurriedly tried to explain, "Pei Qian, your aunt didn’t do it on purpose, she was just upset, and the maid lacked manners, so she hit her. The thing wasn’t broken intentionally."
"Which one of my maids lacks manners, to the extent that they deserve your beating?! Who do you think you are!?" Pei Qian rebuked angrily.
