Text Chapter 349 Seamless [Second Update]
The dry winter day is unusually cold, and the bluestone road is even more cold and hard.
Jiao Rong had just been locked up by Haosheng, and before she could think through the matter and sort out a charter and countermeasures, she was taken out of the detention room again. It's just that this time it's quite unkind compared to before.
The two mothers-in-law stubbornly held her and dragged her forward, she stumbled several times, angrily scolded each other but no one paid attention to her.
The courtyard was full of people, some confused, some hated, some frightened, and some gloating, just like all beings. Li Shuyu also rushed over a long time ago, but everyone avoided that she was a girl who had not left the cabinet and did not talk to her in detail. She stood beside Pang Zi uneasily, for fear that this matter would implicate Pang Zi and cause a fish, and then she would be affected again. She is now in this mansion, and she can be described as a frightened bird.
Jiao Rong saw Pang Zi standing among them at a glance, she looked over expectantly, but the other party's eyes were full of worry.
A mother-in-law carried a long spring stool and put it in the yard, and Jiao Rong was stripped of only her middle clothes under the burning eyes of everyone, and pressed it to death. She looked at the Wu family without knowing it, and then at the Pang family, and shouted: "Madam, aunt, the slave and maid have already made it clear that Chunxiao's death must be done by Aunt Xu who is delirious, and it is not about the slave and maid, please be clear!"
"Hmph, bold girl, with such a hard mouth, in vain I usually have mercy and mercy on you, and take good care of you, but you are so wolf-hearted!" Wu is angry, and he already knows seven or eight points about things in his heart, where is he willing to listen to her nonsense defense: "No matter what you know, shut your mouth first, let it be a good fight!"
Jiao Rong was frightened by Wu's angry words, even if Wu and the others were already suspicious of her, it was impossible for someone to be her so soon...... Could it be that Ponzi told the truth? Impossible! If Ponzi told the truth, she would not be able to take care of her own affairs!
At this time, there was already a board falling on her, making a 'pop' sound, and at the same time, Jiao Rong's screams under the pain sounded. Li Shuyu was so young that she was suddenly frightened, and she saw that the snow-white middle coat was suddenly stained with starry red marks, and Jiao Rong said in unbearable pain: "Husband, madam, spare your life, spare your life...... Please listen to the slave maid's explanation......"
Wu Shi looked at her coldly and didn't say a word, and made up his mind to kill chickens and monkeys. What's more, the sin committed by Jiao Rong is unforgivable in itself.
Jiao Rong saw that Wu didn't react, her face was even paler than Fang Cai, she turned her gaze to Wu: "Auntie, you know that the slave maid is innocent, right, the slave and maid have served you for a while, you plead for the slave and maid, say something!"
In the eyes of insiders, this does not sound like a cry for help, but like a fish to death. Wu Shi didn't wait for Pang Zi to speak, so he said coldly: "It seems that this board is still not strong enough!
The sound of the board falling suddenly became deeper than before, and the courtyard was filled with a dull pain of flesh and blood.
Jiao Rong screamed extremely miserably, and the blood on her face faded cleanly, but she was afraid that she would not have a chance to defend herself, or be directly beaten to death, so she moaned weakly: "Why did Madam put the charge of murder on the head of the slave maid......
The corners of Wu's mouth were tightly pursed, she naturally hated others to put pots on her head, and of course she hated others talking about her like this. This reminded her of the use and suppression of her by the Zhou family when she first married Li Fu. "Hmph, twenty boards, not a single board will be less, if you want to live, it's better to save some strength, and then talk about it after you save up!"
As soon as Jiao Rong heard the twenty boards, she immediately stopped talking. Twenty boards can't kill people, and they will lie down for ten days and half a month at most. At this time, there are more than a dozen boards down, and there is not much left, in the end, she still has a chance to speak, if she angers the Wu family again and sends herself down directly, no one will object.
Jiao Rong gritted her teeth and supported the last few boards, from her back to her thighs, it was full of blood, and the red blood stuck to her middle coat and rotted into a ball, looking so miserable, it can be seen that the two mothers-in-law are sparing no effort.
Of course, they didn't want to carry out Wu's orders thoroughly, but Jiao Rong's usual actions were not very popular, on the contrary, Chunxiao had always had a good popularity among the subordinates, so it led to the current result.
The twenty boards finally settled, Jiao Rong slipped off the spring bench, lay on the ground, and raised her head with difficulty: "It wasn't the slave who did it......
"It's not you?" Wu looked at her sharply: "You said it's not you, so what is this!"
A small blue-white porcelain bottle came out of Wu's hand, and the bones rolled to Jiao Rong, which was the bottle where the poisonous fly umbrella was stored. Immediately afterwards, a sachet embroidered with the fragrant 'fairy fight' and a fan pendant of plum blossoms were also thrown down in front of her.
When Jiao Rong saw these things, she was stunned at first, then surprised, and then confused and frightened.
She looked at Wu, and then at Ponzi, and her heart was determined, it turned out that Wu hit her board because of this sachet of 'boudoir pleasure'. Jiao Rong said: "This sachet and fan pendant...... The aunt promised the slave maid to her cousin before...... It is indeed a slave's, and this matter is a slave and a maid who broke the rules...... But this porcelain vase, Jiao Rong has never seen it, and I don't know the origin of this thing. ”
Originally, I thought that when she said this, Wu would react somewhat, even if she couldn't dispel her suspicions, she should continue to ask her something else. But Wu's tone was flat, and he didn't know whether he was talking to himself or to the people around him. "Sure enough, he is frivolous and shallow-eyed, and he dares to kill for a man! What else will he not dare to do in the future!"
Jiao Rong was shocked: "Madam, I don't have ......"
Wu was indifferent to her defense, her gaze became colder, and Jiao Rong's breath was almost frozen. I only heard Wu's tone say undoubtedly: "Don't explain clearly that you killed Chunxiao and plotted Aunt Xu's money!"
Jiao Rong finally realized that something was wrong. She bit her lower lip and said stiffly: "The slave and the maid have no grievances with Chunxiao, why do you want to kill her...... In order to protect Aunt Xu, does the lady want to bend and make a move...... A slave or maid will not confess their sins when they die......"
She then struggled and said to Aunt Pang, "Auntie...... So far, you don't even say a word for the slave and maid, do you really want the slave and maid to say it......" She said this, obviously threatening Ponzi.
Pang Shi stood half a step behind Wu, trying not to let people notice his flickering face, and when he heard Jiao Rong's words, he knew that it was time for him to do it. She suddenly stepped forward, and when everyone's eyes gathered, she quickly walked in front of Jiao Rong.
'Pap' slapped Jiao Rong on the cheek twice, and reprimanded: "Jiao Rong, the matter between you and Yuan Yong behind your back, I didn't send you out because of the love of the master and servant, but now you dare to commit a crime, speak ill of your wife, and impose a defense, it's really an unforgivable sin!
Pang Zi's two slaps were deadly, and they hit Jiao Rong's two ears, Jiao Rong only felt a tingling pain in her ears, her head was buzzing, and she couldn't hear anything clearly. She covered her ears and watched Ponzi stand in front of her, her mouth opening and closing and still talking rapidly. She was furious in her heart, and wanted to say that the murder and wealth were instructed by Ponzi.
However, she opened her mouth to say a few words, and found that she could not hear what she was saying at all. Under the chaos and pain, she screamed and threw herself towards Pang Zi's constantly open and closed mouth, trying to tear it apart! Li Shuyu's heart tightened, and she flew forward and dragged Pang Zi back, and the mother and daughter suddenly fell backwards to the ground, looking even more delicate and aggressive.
And her few words of 'planting' that changed the tone, Wu had already been mentally prepared under Ponzi's previous rhetoric, and naturally would not believe it anymore.
Jiao Rong took Pang away under the pull of her mother-in-law, Pang Zi said with tears in her eyes: "What kind of sin have I done...... She turned around and knelt in front of Wu: "It's all because the concubine is not strict with her that she makes such a pig and a dog do something!"
Li Shuyu was also very shocked by Jiao Rong's actions, even frightened, tears fell in strings, and she was also afraid that the matter of Zihe Che would be told by Jiao Rong, after all, she and Zhao Ziru begged, and it would be difficult for her to explain a good innocent daughter's family at that time, so she also knelt in front of Wu and said aggrievedly: "Mother, don't do my aunt's business, ask my mother to be the master, and deal with this!"
Although Jiao Rong's brain was not very clear and her ears could not hear, she could guess Ponzi's intentions, she shouted: "It's not me! It's not me! It's her!" She still subconsciously denied that it must have been Ponzi who betrayed her and pushed everything on her! She couldn't live, and she couldn't make Ponzi feel better.
So, she couldn't speak in a clear tone, yelling at Ponzi in a very confused way, and instigating her to kill people and so on. However, everyone has already determined that she is dying and fighting back, wanting to pull Pang Zi into the water. This made Wu's face even more ugly.
What's more, there are so many people standing here inside and outside, and there are all the people in the big house and the three rooms. A slave and maid is so bold and reckless, and after being exposed for her evil deeds, she dares to pour dirty water on her master! What face does she have in the future! "Such a wicked servant, the real crime is unforgivable, come on, hold her down and beat her hard!
Jiao Rong saw that another mother-in-law came to pull her and pressed her to the spring stool, she couldn't help but feel cold all over her body, and shouted in horror: "The slave didn't lie, it was all instructed by Aunt Pang!
Pang Zi chuckled in his heart, his hands clenched quietly, her plan was seamless, just missing a thief's whereabouts, if she really pursued it, she didn't know what the outcome would be in the end. It's a big gamble!
Zhao Ziru on the side has been paying attention to her, and she has a number in her heart when she sees this.
Wu glanced at Tong Xin, and Tong Xin said: "Madam, the slave maid has already led people to rummage through the Zhen Courtyard and the Qian Courtyard, and did not find any silver tickets. ”
Although Wu was strange in her heart, she only thought that Jiao Rong hid the silver tickets secretly, and besides, she didn't think that Xu could put many silver tickets in the box. At the moment, he didn't take it to heart and said, "Call me!"
