"It's all because of that wasteful wench that infuriated me." Old Madam glared fiercely at Auntie Tang.
Situ Yongjie glanced at Auntie Tang who was kneeling on the ground and asked, "What misdeed did you commit this time to make Mother so angry?"
At this moment, Auntie Tang, realizing her actions had been exposed, did not dare to say a word. Like a defeated rooster, she just knelt there, head lowered, completely silent.
"I'm asking you, why aren't you speaking? Have you become mute?"
Situ Yongjie was somewhat taken aback, as Auntie Tang, usually sharp-tongued, had become oddly compliant today, which was not her usual style.
Auntie Tang still remained silent.
"Mother, what exactly happened to her?" Situ Yongjie gestured towards Auntie Tang kneeling on the ground.
"This reckless wench committed sinful acts, of course she doesn't dare to utter a word now," Old Madam said through clenched teeth, seething with anger.
