The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

"When Lele heard her words, he became angry and directly ordered Ye Er to expel them."

The two nannies refused, tossing aside the wet pants, "We were hired by the lady of the house, what authority does a little child have to expel us?"

The Ye Residence bestowed more generous stipends than any other, and they certainly did not wish to leave.

Was it such a great offense to neglect the children for a moment? The young master was too unreasonable; to drive them away over such a petty matter was truly without sentiment.

"Exactly, we simply forgot to change the wet pants for a moment; what harm could it do? Some country kids go a whole day without a change and yet live perfectly well."

"Isn’t that so? He’s nearly a fatherless child, and yet he’s been pampered."

"Anyway, we’re not leaving. The lady of the house invited us, and leave we shall only if she says so."

They thought of waiting for the lady to return, after which they could explain everything and surely avoid any serious consequences. They hadn’t done anything grave; they’d neither beaten nor starved the children. Besides, with Old Lady Li around, they wouldn’t even have the opportunity to lay a hand on them.

"My mother is not at home; in this house, what I say goes!" Lele didn’t bother arguing with them and instead said to Ye Er, "Carry them off, not allowing them to take anything from the residence. Hmph, my father is alive and well, yet they dare to curse ’My Prince Father’? Cursing the father of the prince is indeed a punishable offense."

"Ptui! You brat, stop trying to fool us." Unsophisticated, the two nannies had only worked as caretakers in ordinary merchants’ homes and had arrived recently at the Ye Residence, just last month. They knew little of the affairs of the Ye Family, and since the servants were not given to gossip, no one had informed the nannies that there was a prince in the Ye Family.

"We don’t care, no matter what. We won’t leave without doing something terribly wrong." Saying so, one of the nannies ran into the courtyard and clung tightly to a tree, refusing to let go, while the other followed suit.

"What’s going on here?" Li Mum, who had gone to the toilet, returned.

"Little sister was crying, and these two just sat there eating seeds. I saw that little sister had wet herself, but they didn’t come forward to check. I want to drive them out."

Upon hearing this, Li Mum became enraged, "You two good-for-nothings, blinded by lard, you were hired to serve, not to act like ladies. Have you no shame? Who do you think you are?" Although Li Mum was advanced in years, she did not mince her words when scolding someone.

"You old hag, don’t you dare curse us! We’re all the same, no one is more noble than the other."

"Exactly, you’re just a slave yourself; what right do you have to scold us?"

Both nannies were brazenly defiant.

"Brother, what happened?" Having heard the commotion from inside, Yangyang came out to ask.

Lele then recounted the entire incident to him, and unfortunately, this child had a fiery temper, becoming irate at once.

He charged at one of the tree-hugging nannies, unleashing punches and kicks. Seeing her cling to the tree, he bit down hard.

"This is for bullying sister, for cursing my dear dad; believe it or not, young master will beat you to death."

"Mommy, mommy, they’re hitting someone, they’re hitting someone!"

"Gag her mouth and tie her up, throw her out, quickly!" Lele’s face darkened further upon hearing this, "If she continues to cling to the tree, she can do without her hands."
