Chapter XXIV
Aunt Qian hurriedly stepped forward and replied with a smile: "Madam, that girl is serving the fourth lady in the inner room." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Command her to go down, take her and beat her with twenty boards, and then send her to the officer. Zhou's words made everyone dare not even speak out, "It was she who stole the third lady's jade flower for the fourth lady." ”
There was silence in the room, and it seemed that even a needle could be heard on the ground. Zhou's decided the life and death of a girl in a moment, you must know that although the twenty boards can't kill people, they are just injured and thrown into the yamen prison, so a weak little girl can still live?
Sure enough, Mrs. Qifu's main methods are not ordinary ruthless.
Qi Bo couldn't help but sigh secretly, this matter is obviously a catastrophe for the third young lady, even if the fourth young lady is lucky and there is no damage, she should also bear the responsibility for pushing her sister into the water. But this lady is determined to protect the third lady, and there is really nothing to do about reversing black and white, after all, the master is not in the house, that is, the lady is big, and what else can he say about a housekeeper.
It's just a pity that one of the lives in the courtyard of the fourth lady was lost...... She was weak and couldn't resist at this time, but when the old man returned home, wouldn't she want to vent her anger and make trouble?
Seeing that he had successfully deterred everyone by killing chickens and monkeys, Zhou couldn't help but feel a little satisfied in his heart, and finally solved this matter for Qi Shushengsheng.
Although she was annoyed that Qi Shu acted recklessly, no matter whether it was good or bad, it was always her own daughter, and she was always a little slut born of a fox and a charmer. Although it is a dangerous move, it has to be done, if she lets her daughter make a small tea for this little slut and pours her tea to admit her mistake, not to mention that Qi Shu is unwilling to be killed, even if she herself has no brilliance.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but snort coldly, and swept everyone with her eyes sharp, "This matter will end here, if you let someone chew his tongue and not do his right thing again, then don't blame our Qi Mansion for driving him out mercilessly." ”
Everyone said yes, how dare not obey.
At this time, I heard a weak but very soft and powerful voice from inside the room: "Mother, I have something to say. ”
Everyone looked fixedly, and the delicate little woman who was helped out of the inner room by A-Yao was not the fourth young lady who had been wronged?
Zhou frowned and said, "Fourth Miss, if you want to recuperate, you will stay in bed well, what are you going to do when you run out now?"
"I've been lying in the house for a long time, and I can't lie down. Qi Nian half leaned on Ah Yao's body, half weak, and said softly: "My daughter's name is nothing, but I really can't bear my mother being deceived by others, and I don't know that I am being used by others." She seemed to take a breath before she continued: "If my mother really sends my girl to the government today, and when my father returns in the future, I am afraid that the first one will be ridiculed by the whole city......"
"What does this have to do with your father?" Zhou was already impatient to talk to her, and when he heard her say something, he pulled Qi Junliang's body, and couldn't help but darken his face, "You should be in bed at this time, don't let people say that our dignified young lady doesn't understand the rules at all! I didn't send you today, and I saw your father's face, so you should think about it behind closed doors from today on!"
"I don't understand what my mother said, what's wrong with my daughter, why did she think about it behind closed doors?" Qi Nian couldn't help sneering when he heard this, and found a chair in the hall to sit on, his slightly pale face at a young age was not afraid, and said loudly: "And A-Yao is my maidservant, even if my mother wants to send her down, she should tell me, isn't it in my mother's eyes, only the third sister is the young lady of Qi Mansion, and I can't be considered a serious master?"
Hearing this, Zhou almost blurted out, "What kind of thing are you! Dare to compare with my daughter!" But she was not as impulsive as Qi Shu, so she only endured it before sneering: "It makes the people laugh, our serious master of Qi Mansion is such a rule, and he dares to talk like this with his mother-in-law!"
Qi Nian didn't put her ridicule in his ears, but only turned his face indifferently to stare at Qi Shu, and said in a voice as ethereal and indifferent as the hollow valley orchid: "Say that I stole the third sister's things, and show evidence, otherwise it will only be a false accusation, and I will never admit that I have not done anything even if we get into court." ”
Qi Shu was stared at by her, but she still said in a loud voice: "I saw with my own eyes that my jade flower step was hidden by you on the body of your maid Qianling, how can this be considered a false accusation?"
Qianling, who was kneeling on the side and didn't dare to come out, suddenly heard her name, and couldn't help but shake her delicate body and tremble.
Qi Nian smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Third sister, you said it yourself, the thing is on Qianling's body, how can you say that it was stolen by my other maidservant A-Yao?
Qi Shu was suddenly choked by her, and after a slight pause, she said: "Maybe you sent Ayao to steal my step shake, and asked Qianling to help you hide it, anyway, this is your girl, and no one can rely on it!"
Qianling originally thought that the third lady would exonerate her, but she didn't expect that she wanted to catch them all, completely ignoring the fact that she had passed the news for her and her wife many times, and suddenly couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly walked a few steps forward and bowed and cried: "The slave and the maid are wronged, the slave and the maid are wronged! How dare the slave and the maid take the things of the third young lady, the slave and the maid really don't dare!"
Qi Nian glanced at Ah Yao behind him, and Ah Yao stepped forward silently and pulled up Qianling, who was crying with pear blossoms and rain, and retreated to the side.
"Xu is?" she repeated these two words playfully, before raising her eyebrows and saying: "The third sister can say such unwarranted words, so the so-called me sending someone to steal your things is probably 'Xu Shi', right?"
"You, you ......" Qi Shu was angry, but he also knew that he would lose too many words, so he hurriedly cast a plea of help to Zhou, who had been watching coldly.
Seeing that his daughter was really angry, Zhou glared at her before he said coldly: "Since there is no dispute, then search it, and the truth will be revealed immediately." ”
"When Mother said that she was going to search, we made it clear before we searched. Qi Nian had a kind smile on his face, and said, "I don't know if I only searched for A-Yao, who was accused, or even Qianling was searched?"
Before Zhou could speak, Qi Shu knew that the step was for Qianling, so he hurriedly interjected: "Naturally, the two of them searched together." Seeing that Zhou's hatred of iron and steel glanced at her, she knew that she had already settled down on the truth, and hurriedly added: "Who knows if your girls have colluded well, and they are afraid of being discovered, so they will be collected by others?"
