古代闺秀被强高H

As soon as Yu Dong spoke, Zhou Xing who was standing behind Lang stepped forward. Her eyes were rimmed red as she looked at her mother with a pointed glare. She had been bitten by a poisonous snake and this was something that Zhou Xing was well aware of, she even knew that if she died her family would be in a lot of trouble which was why she fought with all her might to survive.

However, she never expected that her mother whom she had respected and acted filial towards would actually come looking for trouble with Yu Dong. Her mother did not even confirm whether or not she was dead and started to make a fuss. It was as if her mother wanted her to die such that she would be able to live a comfortable life.

How could Zhou Xing be not hurt after seeing the heartlessness of her mother? She wanted to rush ahead and ask her mother why she treated her so ruthlessly it was fine that she treated her cruelly but why did she have to drag her son around like this? Can she not see Yu Dong\'s age? Even if Yu Dong was rich, she was far much older than her son!

Her son and Yu Dong had no match, even the youngest husband of Yu Dong was in his teens and her son wasn\'t even eleven yet.

" Zhou Xing…you…you are alive?" Old Madam Zhou was stumped upon seeing Zhou Xing standing in front of her. When she heard that Zhou Xing was bitten by a snake, she thought that her daughter was dead for sure but from the looks of it, Zhou Xing was completely fine!

Zhou Xing saw the shock evident in the eyes of her mother and couldn\'t fool herself even if she wanted to, her mother was looking forward to seeing her dead body but now that she found out that she was alive and well, she was thoroughly upset.

A mocking laugh escaped her lips as Zhou Xing arched a brow and then replied, " Thats right, mother. I am not only alive but I am completely fine, Madam Yu saved my life right on time. Are you not happy?"

Hearing the mockery in Zhou Xing\'s words, Old Madam Zhou was flustered. She really did not expect Zhou Xing to be fine, no wonder that woman surnamed Lu did not come looking for her and acted as if she had no idea what was going on. It must be because she found out that Zhou Xing was alive and saved on time!

Though Old Madam Zhou was furious inwardly, she did not say anything. As she knew that even if she was to drag Lu Yue\'an with her at this moment, nothing was going to help her. Instead of making a fuss, it was better to focus on Zhou Xing.

Thus, Old Madam Zhou simply threw the last bit of shame that she had in her eyes at the back of her head and then thickened her skin before saying, " What nonsense are you spouting? Did I not do this for your son? I was worried that if something happened to you, these rich people would bully you and our family. How can you say something so heartless? Are you trying to break the heart of your mother?

How can you be so unfilial?!"

As she spoke, she rushed forward and started to slap Zhou Xing on the back.

Though Zhou Xing was hit she did not fight back against her mother and simply let Old Madam Zhou hit her as she wanted.

Yu Dong watched the show in front of her and then calmly stated, " If you are done can you leave? My family and the villagers have a lot of work to do."

This matter was related to Zhou Xing and her family. And it had nothing to do with her after all, she was just Zhou Xing\'s employer and not her family who should worry about what happened in the Zhou family. She already did quite a lot for the Zhou family by saving Zhou Xing\'s life.

" I apologize for the confusion, Madam Yu," Zhou Xing bowed her head and then apologized. She truly did not know what to say anymore but Yu Dong did not give her a chance to say anything. She glanced at Old Madam Zhou and then nodded before turning to walk back inside the house.

Old Madam Zhou was quite heartbroken when she thought about how the money in her hands was going to fly away again. She shot a disgruntled glance at Zhou Xing while cursing her in her heart. This woman really could not do anything good.

All she had to do was to die and she couldn\'t even do that! So useless!

Zhou Xing of course caught the disgust in the eyes of her mother, she clenched her hands and then calmly turned to look at Boss Gong before saying, " Lady Boss, I will be taking a day off. Please give me a day to settle my family affairs."

Boss Gong also wanted to see Old Madam Zhou off, this old woman was much more trouble than she was worth it. She nodded and said, " Very well but make sure that the matters are settled completely. We cannot have you create another round of ruckus, don\'t forget that we are here to work and not to cause drama ."

" I understand," Zhou Xing conceded before she dragged her mother out of the village. She did not care whether or not Old Madam Zhou was upset nor did she care about the cries of her mother who was asking her to go and ask for compensation from Yu Dong. Instead, she continued to drag her away leaving Old Madam Zhou quite upset.

And Old Madam Zhou was not the only one who was upset, at the imperial palace, someone else was also quite upset.
