After you sever ties, it's no use crying and regretting it.

Chapter 29 Snobbish People

After Lü Xinyan left and Yang Mama had an accident, Qiuyue temporarily became the head maid in charge of the estate, responsible for all kinds of affairs.

Knowing Miss Yuan Yutong's personality, Qiuyue always went along with her, answering her questions verbally and never making decisions on her own.

This time, knowing that the young lady had come to see Granny Yang, Qiu Yue also knew about some transactions between the young lady Yuan Yutong and Granny Yang, which probably involved Miss Lü. Qiu Yue pretended not to know anything, not wanting to cause any trouble for herself.

After all, these days young ladies are not so easy to please. Qiu Yue has to be careful and doesn't want to cause any trouble.

At this moment, upon hearing Miss Yuan Yutong's question, Qiuyue hurriedly and respectfully replied, "Replying to Miss, Granny Yang's dampness flared up and has not yet recovered. She is in unbearable pain all over her body, and is swollen and hot. She is currently unable to move and has been lying on the bed to recuperate. She is usually taken care of by Granny Yang's daughter-in-law, Chuncao."

“Chuncao is very diligent and has always kept things tidy for Granny Yang well, so there has never been such a problem.”

"However, Granny Yang needs to take the wind-dispelling and pain-relieving pills from Huichun Pharmacy to slightly alleviate the pain in her body. I just asked Chuncao to buy them, which is why Chuncao is not serving Granny Yang."

"At this time, there must be no one around to take care of her, so Granny Yang had to deal with it on her own, which is why this problem occurred. Once Chuncao comes back, she can clean up the mess and everything will be fine."

Speaking of which, Qiuyue and the others also felt that Yang Mama deserved her current situation.

Faced with the recent changes in the household, everyone is considering their own future and will make choices that are in their best interest.

They were all servants and maids of the Yuan family, so they had no choice but to continue to earn a living in the Yuan family. They couldn't afford to offend the young lady, so they could only sever ties with Lü Xinyan and stop standing on her side.

However, considering that Lü Xinyan had been very kind to them in the past, they did not like the idea of ​​kicking someone when they were down.

Therefore, when Lü Xinyan left the Yuan family, they did not make things difficult for her.

But Granny Yang was different.

In an attempt to win the favor of the madam and the eldest daughter, before Lü Xinyan left the Yuan family, Granny Yang actually put on airs in front of Lü Xinyan, wanting to further humiliate her and make her realize the gap in reality, so that she would think she could live a better life than Lü Xinyan and that she would be of a higher status than Lü Xinyan.

Even Qiuyue and the others found that kind of behavior very pretentious and vulgar.

They had no choice but to follow Granny Yang's instructions and inventory all the items, ensuring that Lü Xinyan wouldn't take anything away.

In fact, Qiu Yue and the others knew very well that over the years, in order to appease Lü Xinyan, the gifts sent by the mansion were mostly large items that Lü Xinyan could not take with her.

Moreover, Lü Xinyan is a very good person. Since she was leaving the Yuan family, she naturally had no intention of taking anything from the Yuan family. She only packed a package with a few changes of clothes that she made herself. There was no need to open the package for inspection.

But Granny Yang insisted on doing so, just to show that Granny Yang's status was different now, even higher than Lü Xinyan's.

Their arrogant and domineering behavior made Qiuyue and the others blush with embarrassment.

They did it, but they really didn't want to, and they felt extremely guilty towards Lü Xinyan.

However, since they still needed to stay in the Yuan family, they naturally wouldn't do anything too outrageous, wouldn't openly defy Granny Yang's orders, and didn't want to offend Granny Yang and the eldest young lady.

Young Miss Yuan Yutong had absolutely no good impression of Lü Xinyan. Even if they wanted to torment Lü Xinyan at that time, there was nothing they could do to avoid it, but they wouldn't go too far like Granny Yang.

Now, Granny Yang's old ailment has relapsed, and her whole body is swollen and painful. There has been no improvement in the past few days, and her condition is getting worse.

Qiuyue had seen before that Lü Xinyan brought medicine for Granny Yang. She knew that Lü Xinyan had paid a high price and brought highly effective wind-dispelling and pain-relieving pills, which was why Granny Yang recovered so quickly and did not have to suffer from the pain.

Despite Lü Xinyan's efforts, Granny Yang showed no gratitude whatsoever, instead taking it all for granted.

But now, Granny Yang's illness has flared up again, and she is suffering more than death. Yet she keeps reminiscing about the good old days and how Lü Xinyan bought medicine for her back then. She laments that she was taken advantage of and should have asked Lü Xinyan to bring back more pain-relieving pills.

Unfortunately, things have developed to this point. Granny Yang is suffering greatly, and every day she can only regret and curse on her bed, but she can never go back to the way things were before. Lü Xinyan can no longer bring medicine to Granny Yang.

The pain-relieving and wind-dispelling pills that Granny Yang herself sent to Huichun Pharmacy to buy were only basic in effect and not highly potent. They only provided slight relief for Granny Yang's pain and suffering, but could not provide the comprehensive treatment she had received in the past. As a result, Granny Yang is still unable to move and can only lie on her bed, unable to even take care of herself.

Back when Granny Yang fell ill, it was Lü Xinyan who went to buy medicine. She used the best medicine, which helped Granny Yang alleviate the pain and recover her health, so that she could work without any problems.

However, as soon as Lü Xinyan's true identity was revealed, Granny Yang immediately broke off relations with her, showing her no respect whatsoever and even attempting to bully Lü Xinyan. This is why Lü Xinyan stopped buying medicine for Granny Yang and no longer cared about their past relationship.

Now, Granny Yang's illness suddenly flared up. Without the effective pain-relieving and wind-dispelling pills, Granny Yang is suffering greatly. Several days have passed without any improvement; on the contrary, she is getting more and more tired and her condition is getting worse.

Even under these circumstances, Granny Yang still wouldn't reflect on her own problems. Instead, she blamed Lü Xinyan for not leaving her more medicine to relieve wind and pain, causing her to suffer from this illness. She cursed Lü Xinyan to die a horrible death.

Therefore, after seeing what Granny Yang had done, Qiuyue felt no sympathy for Granny Yang's current predicament; she only felt that Granny Yang had brought it upon herself.

One cannot be completely heartless. One should not take advantage of power and bully others, discarding past relationships as if they were worthless.

Given how snobbish and petty Yang Mama was, none of them dared to associate with her or help her, lest they gain no favor and instead be blamed, which would be a huge loss for them.
