"Smack...!"
The Old Madam swept the teacup off the table. Instantly, shattered pieces covered the floor. She pointed angrily at the nearby maids and old servants, shouting, "Are you all deaf? Didn't you hear what I said? Go find that little wretch immediately! How dare you defy me!"
"Yes, Madam."
The Old Madam's outburst terrified the servants. Normally quick on her feet, Old Lady Zhang immediately grabbed two maids and rushed out to summon Mo Xiuzhi for questioning.
"Mother, there's no need to be angry. We simply won't take her as a concubine."
Situ Yongjie stepped forward to placate the Old Madam. Mo Xiuzhi and Xuexue were sisters, and he already had some misgivings about the matter. Now, it was resolved completely.
But the Old Madam was deeply disappointed. She had been longing for her grandson, only to find out that he was a fraud, leaving her hopes dashed.
