Chapter 1014: Chapter 1014: Turning the World Upside Down

So, she said softly, "Zhizhi, no one will spread it; your eldest sister was just making a metaphor."

"Grandmother, you don’t understand, these dog servants need to be whipped into shape from time to time, otherwise, they won’t stay honest."

Situ Zhi didn’t realize anything inappropriate about his behavior and spoke as if it were completely reasonable.

His perspective was, after all, inseparable from the education he received from childhood.

Indeed, ever since he understood things, everyone in the General’s Mansion revolved around him, and Auntie Tang often warned the maids around him: If anyone dared to cause the Young Master to lose even a single hair, she would see to it they lose their lives. The Young Master’s life is precious, incomparable to their worthless ones.

In such an atmosphere, Situ Zhi slowly grew up, his thinking drastically changing, and he couldn’t care less about the lives of maids; countless maids had died at his hands.

When Auntie Tang sensed something was wrong, it was already too late; Situ Zhi’s temperament had already been formed.

Having no alternative, Auntie Tang could only cover up for him. Luckily, up to now, no one had discovered it. Old Madam wouldn’t have known about it either if it hadn’t been for the critical situation last time.

"Zhizhi, your grandmother has been very lonely these days. From now on, come over every day to keep your grandmother company and recite Buddhist scriptures and eat vegetarian meals," Old Madam said in an irrefutable tone.

Upon hearing about reciting scriptures and eating vegetarian meals, Situ Zhi’s face fell. Glaring harshly at Xuexue, it was all this little cheap person’s fault. He was particularly picky about his food; eating vegetarian meals every day was worse than death.

"Grandmother, as long as the grandson doesn’t call Auntie Tang ’mother,’ please don’t punish me."

Situ Zhi even thought that Old Madam was angry that he didn’t listen to Xuexue’s words and was deliberately punishing him! He had no idea that his cruel nature had been revealed.

"Child, reciting scriptures is a good thing; how can it be considered a punishment?" Old Madam was determined to cleanse the malice from Situ Zhi’s heart.

Situ Qinger had no idea her brother Situ Zhi was a murderous Demon; hearing this, she also said with a smile: "Grandmother, don’t be hard on Zhizhi. With his temperament, he won’t be able to sit and recite scriptures."

"There is a first time for everything; he’ll get used to it," Old Madam was unmoved.

Situ Yongjie refused to take a concubine, and the Situ Family was left with only Situ Zhi as the sole heir; no mishap could be allowed, or the General’s Mansion would come to an end.

Old Madam, who always doted on Situ Zhi, was so insistent that Situ Qinger was somewhat surprised, but she dared not say anything more.

However, when Old Madam was not paying attention, she would occasionally turn back and glare fiercely at Xuexue.

This little cheap person was quite formidable; silent most of the time, but when she did speak, she struck vital points. It seems that in the future, she must be wary of her.

"Grandmother, Xuexue has finished eating, so I will take my leave now." The drama had been watched, the hand had been played, and most importantly, breakfast was already done—it was time for her to exit.

"Hmm," Old Madam nodded and said no more; her mind was completely focused on Situ Zhi, thinking about how to change his bad habit of killing maids.

Xuexue left the Refreshing Courtyard with Zi Xia.

"Miss, did you notice that Old Madam’s behavior towards the Young Master is a bit strange?"

"What’s strange? Grandmother always dotes on him," Xuexue replied.

"It’s not doting, it just feels weird."

"Really?" Xuexue stopped walking and turned her head to ask.

"Yes! It just feels very strange, but I can’t quite put my finger on why."

"You’re just too sensitive," Xuexue continued walking.

"Am I too sensitive?" Zi Xia stood still, beginning to doubt herself, wondering if she was being paranoid. Yet, deep down she still felt something was off, but she couldn’t pinpoint what exactly was wrong.
