118 Interrogation
Yingluo had just returned to Qiushui Garden from Fulu Garden, Su Jinghua arrived on his hind feet, and Shuangxing welcomed Su Jinghua into the house, and Su Jinghua's eyes stared straight at Yingluo's lips.
Seeing that there was indeed a blood mark on her lips, it had dried up into a black blood scab at the moment, and it was especially shocking to look at, thinking about the words of the two little maids, she was even more angry.
Since the Song family was imprisoned, the old lady did not restrict Su Jinghua from moving around in the inner courtyard, after all, he is not too old, Su Jinghua will come to Qiushui Courtyard to talk on weekdays, and now the relationship with Yingluo is not the same as when Yingluo just crossed over.
And because of Yingluo's intentional or unintentional guidance, and Yingluo's actions have never concealed Su Jinghua, Su Jinghua saw that Song and others were unlucky, and the inferiority complex in his heart was much less, and the whole person let go.
He was already precocious, he was just too autistic and self-abandoning before, but now with Yingluo's sister who cares and teaches him all the time, he is no longer the Su Jinghua he used to be.
Therefore, he also relied on Yingluo very much, and recognized this sister in his heart, and now that his only sister has been slandered and wronged like this, he is naturally angry in his heart, looking at the wound on Yingluo's lips and saying: "Sister, did those Praetorian Guards do something to my sister?" ”
The maids and mothers-in-law in the house were all sent out, but only the two sisters and brothers, so Su Jinghua directly asked what he wanted in his heart.
Yingluo saw that his fists were clenched, his face was pale, his eyes were full of concern and worry, and his gaze fell straight on his lips, and he became more and more embarrassed for a while, and raised his hand to cover his lips.
She already hated Qin Yan to death in her heart, that bastard scoundrel, she was paid attention to by waves of people today, and no matter how hard she tried to be frank and calm, she was also ashamed and embarrassed in her heart. It's better to face the old lady and others, but now that I'm being asked by my younger brother, I can't wait to dig a hole in the ground.
Su Jinghua saw Yingluo's reaction, and his forehead jumped in shock, and said, "Who is it!" Which bastard bullied my sister!? ”
Yingluo saw that he was so angry, so she hurriedly put down her hand and said: "What are you talking about, my lips were frightened by myself, and one was accidentally bitten, you can take a closer look at the direction of the imprint on the head!" ”
Su Jinghua looked at it carefully when he heard this, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and then his face showed anger, and said, "These two damn slaves!" The master has to pull out their skin! ”
Yingluo got up and pressed Su Jinghua to sit on the circle chair, and said with a smile: "What's the matter?" But who is it that is telling right and wrong in front of you? My sister said a long time ago, to be a man, to be Mount Tai to the top and not move like a mountain, the more things happen, the more calm and calm, what happened to the two slaves? Makes you so angry? ”
Yingluo said and gave the teacup to Su Jinghua, Su Jinghua barely suppressed his anxiety and anger and drank two sips, suppressed the anger, and then said: "Sister doesn't know, just when I sent Brother Chi out of the house, I heard two little maids chewing their tongues behind the flower wall. ”
Su Jinghua retold the conversation between the two little maids to Yingluo, and for a while Yingluo's face turned red and blue, she was not angry because she was so criticized by the two maids, but she felt that because she made people like Chi Jingyi suffer humiliation, she felt more and more guilty and ashamed in her heart.
She couldn't help but clench her hands slightly, and her expression was really ugly and solemn like she had never been. Su Jinghua had never seen such a Yingluo, so he couldn't help but be surprised, hurriedly stood up, and said: "Sister, don't be angry, it's just two maids, I already know where the two of them are on an errand, and the guards tell them to bloom!" ”
Yingluo calmed down a little when she heard this, but said, "Your big brother Chi...... Was he okay at the time? ”
Su Jinghua was young, how could he know about men and women, let alone Yingluo's thoughts, he only smiled when he heard this: "Brother Chi is very good, if Brother Chi hadn't stopped me at that time, I would have rushed out directly, and if I can't say that things are going to be big, Sister Yu will not be good." My sister is right, I was still too impulsive when I encountered something, Brother Chi pulled me out of the distance, and told me to turn back and secretly follow the two little maids, so I didn't cause an accident. After Brother Chi finished giving the order, he went out of the house on his own. ”
Su Jinghua said nothing, but saw Yingluo sitting in a daze, she didn't know what she was thinking, as if she wasn't listening to herself at all.
He was stunned for a moment, called Yingluo, Yingluo suddenly came back to her senses, smiled reluctantly, and said: "Where would those two little maids say such things on your way out of the house so coincidentally, most of them were instructed by someone, and you rushed out on the spot, the two maids must shout so that the whole house hears the movement, so that the heart of the person behind the scenes is weighed." ”
Su Jinghua nodded and said: "Brother Chi also said the same at that time, I think the people behind the scenes are stealing chickens and rice, Brother Chi can trust his sister, he saw through the conspiracy and lies of the two maids at a glance, and let me comfort my sister." ”
A smile overflowed into Yingluo's lips, and her eyes became distant and empty.
Yes, Chi Jingyi is very good, it was what he did, and his stupidity affected him, making him endure such a shame as today.
Yingluo felt sad in her heart, and unconsciously fell silent again.
Half an hour later, Su Jinghua asked the two tongue-chewing maids to enter the old lady's Fulu Garden, and asked Su Dingwen to invite him to the Fulu Courtyard.
The old lady here listened to Mama Duan's report, and before she got up from the hospital bed, the eldest lady and the fourth lady heard the movement and came to Fulu Courtyard one after another.
Su Yingying and Su Yingyu sisters naturally followed, and they all looked at Yingluo with a sinking face and Su Jinghua with anger on their faces.
Ma entered the flower hall, and after a salute, Xiao Liu personally served Ma on the Luohan bed, and Ma looked at the Yingluo sisters and brothers, and said in a somewhat impatient tone: "What's the matter?" What's the fuss? ”
Su Jinghua heard Ma come up and talk like this, his disgust for their sister and brother was undoubtedly revealed, Rao was already cold, but he still couldn't help gritting his teeth, resisting the deep sorrow in his heart, and said: "Grandmother, when my grandson sent Brother Chi away, ......
Su Jinghua repeated the matter of Fang Cai again, Yingluo sat on the side with her head down and wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and paid attention to the expressions of the eldest lady and others in the room.
Su Dingwen heard Su Jinghua's words, but his face turned blue with anger, although Yingluo's current family business made him feel a little regretful, but those regrets disappeared after seeing Chi Jingyi's character today, as well as his importance to Yingluo.
Su Dingwen now feels that the Chi family is a strange thing to live in, but these two maids are unpredictable, and they ran to Chi Jingyi to slander Yingluo, how could he not be angry?
Without waiting for the old lady to speak, Su Dingwen slapped the table and said in a deep voice: "Where are you two cheap maids on an errand?" Who's instructed it, don't say it quickly! ”
The two maidservants looked no more than twelve or thirteen, and at this moment their faces were frightened, kneeling on the ground and trembling, and they were speechless for a while, only crying.
Seeing this, the old lady couldn't help but look at Su Dingwen and said: "Third child, you don't have to worry about these inner house matters, my mother will give an explanation to the five girls, you can go and get busy." ”
The third master, a big man, was mixed in the inner house during the day, and he interfered in the affairs of the inner house, and it became a joke when it was spread. Su Dingwen no longer insisted when he heard this, got up and saluted the old lady, turned around and left.
The old lady looked at Su Jinghua at this time, her eyes were slightly sharp, and she said: "You are also an ignorant person, how can this kind of trivial matter alarm your father, it is really in vain to learn the rules." ”
Su Jinghua secretly gritted his teeth and said: "My grandson originally thought that my grandmother was sick, so I didn't alarm my grandmother, so I asked my father to report it, but later my sister said that it was not in accordance with the rules, and it was really inappropriate for my father to meddle in the inner house, so I escorted the two of them to my grandmother, my grandson was wrong, and it will definitely not be in the future." ”
Seeing Su Jinghua admit his mistake, the old lady's face turned a little pale, and said, "Okay, it's good to understand." After that, he stared at the two little maids and said, "Don't be honest yet!" ”
The slightly older one cried and kowtowed: "The slave maid is the maid who is sprinkled and swept by the Fulu Courtyard, the slave and maid are wrong, they shouldn't chew their tongues indiscriminately, and ruin the reputation of the five girls, and the slave and maid will never dare to do it again in the future." ”
As she spoke, she opened her mouth left and right, and another small maid also cried: "The slave maid Chunhua is also the rough maid of Fulu Garden, the slaves and maids have indeed not been instructed by anyone, it was when the five girls came to Fulu Garden, the slaves and maids inadvertently saw that the lips of the five girls were a little strange, so they talked about it twice, and the old lady spared her life." ”
Chunhua also kowtowed as she spoke, and immediately her delicate forehead broke and flowed, looking unusually wolf, and so did the spring water, a small face was swollen like a pig's head.
When the old lady heard that it was the little maid in her yard chewing her tongue, she felt that she had lost her face, and she was very angry, and said: "Such a maid who chews her tongue and ruins the reputation of her master, our Hou Mansion can't tolerate it, so I took the deed of sale of the two of them, and called someone to send it out!" ”
When the two maids heard this, their bodies went limp, and they both collapsed on the ground, crying and begging, and immediately four rough mothers-in-law stepped forward and restrained the two to drag them out.
Yingluo stared at the two maids, and saw that although the two of them were crying hard, they were dragged by their mother-in-law, and they looked extremely obedient, and their eyes flashed for a while, and said, "Slow!" ”
She got up and said to Ma Shifu, and said, "Grandmother, the words of these two maids are clearly not true, Fulu Courtyard is extremely far away from Qiushui Courtyard, how can the news of the Praetorian Guards rushing into Qiushui Courtyard reach the ears of these two little maids in a moment?" You must know that since the Praetorian Guards entered the inner courtyard, my grandmother did not allow the subordinates of each courtyard to move around at will. What's more, why did they happen to talk about these things when Young Master Chi left the mansion? I'm afraid it's not as simple as a broken mouth, the granddaughter is self-purifying, and she doesn't mind being slandered by them, but these two maids are from the grandmother's house after all, if the grandmother is saddled with the stigma of framing her granddaughter, won't the granddaughter be to blame? ”
Ma is not a fool, and naturally understands that this thing is strange, but what she dislikes the most in this house is the Yingluo sister and brother, who knows whose head will be found in the end, and Ma is not willing to show this head for Yingluo, so he wanted to send the two maids quickly.
Now that Yingluo's words are persecuted, the old lady is also a little angry.
Indeed, the people in the house almost all understand that they hate the five girls, and now it is the maids in their own courtyard who arrange the five girls, if they don't interrogate clearly, they will drop the two maids out of the house, maybe some people will say that it is their grandmother's instructions, otherwise how can they protect the two maids, and dare not interrogate deeply.
And the person behind the curtain did it, and he moved to her Fulu Courtyard, thinking that there were people installed by others in his Fulu Courtyard, Ma was also angry.
Therefore, she waved her hand and ordered her mother-in-law to throw the two maids back, and said, "Don't say it quickly!" Who instructed you? ”
The two little maids were still crying and shouting that they had never been instructed by anyone, and they were just two people who broke their mouths, Ma sneered and said, "Such a hard mouth, okay, drag them down and hit twenty boards first, and then ask!" ”
When the mother-in-law heard this, she stepped forward to ask someone, and Chunshui and Chunhua panicked, kowtowed: "The old lady spares her life, the old lady spares her life, the slave and maid said that it was Sister Rose next to the seventh girl of Qiushui Courtyard who told the slaves and maids about this, and Sister Rose also gave the two slaves and maids a reward of ten taels of silver each, and asked the two slaves and maids to say those words to Chi Dagong when they left, and promised that if they were questioned after the matter was completed, they would let people buy the two slaves and maids from the hands of Renyazi and let the two slaves and maids go home." ”
Chunshui and Chunhua's words suddenly shocked everyone in the room, and Su Yingyu was the first to exclaim: "It turned out to be the seventh sister, heh, it's hard for the fifth sister to be the best with the seventh sister on weekdays." ”
Su Yingxue also looked at Yingluo with sympathy, and said: "Fifth sister is not too sad, the seventh sister is as good as the fifth sister on weekdays, maybe it is Rose who makes her own opinion, and the seventh sister doesn't know about it at all." Speaking of which, everyone is here, why didn't the seventh sister come. ”
It is true that the female dependents are all here now, except for the courtyard where the second lady Liu lives, and the concubine and daughter-in-law do not go to the Fulu Courtyard on weekdays, and then Su Yingzi did not come.
This made Su Yingzi even more uneasy and kind, and her heart was weak and evasive.
Yingluo was also stunned when she heard the words of the two maids, she never expected that they would arch out Su Yingzi.
For a moment, Yingluo was also suspicious, but soon she denied it, it would not be Su Yingzi's doing.
First, Yingluo is still confident in her own vision, although Su Yingzi is not a good person, but if the two have never intersected, it is still possible for Su Yingzi to do such a thing, but now she and Su Yingzi are also considered to have some sisterhood, but Yingluo is unwilling to believe that Su Yingzi will be a white-eyed wolf.
The most important thing is that Yingluo knows Su Yingzi and Aunt Jiang, and their mother and daughter are not impulsive people, on the contrary, they are both very cautious. And this time, the first trial came out, and it involved the maid in the old lady's yard, saying that it would not be the two of them, Aunt Jiang was tired of it, so she would reach out to the old lady.
Therefore, hearing the words of Sister Su Yingyu fanning the flames, Yingluo just smiled and said: "Grandmother, these two maids are obviously casually climbing and slandering, picking up soft persimmons and pinching, what is the benefit of the seventh sister doing this, it is really nonsense!" ”
When Chunshui heard this, he kowtowed and said, "Five girls, think about it, if it wasn't for Sister Rose's inform, how would the two slaves and maids know that the commander of the Praetorian Guard had entered the house of the five girls?" After the Praetorian Guards entered the inner house, the old lady did not allow people to move around at will, that is, the seventh girl and the fifth girl lived together in the Qiushui courtyard to know so much, the slave maid really didn't lie. ”
Chunhua also hurriedly knelt down two steps towards Yingluo, and said, "At that time, Sister Zijuan and the slave maid were talking under the west wall, and Sister Songzhi also saw it. The slave maid also has pearl earrings from Sister Rose. Please take a look at the old lady. ”
Chunhua took out a pearl earring from her bosom and presented it to Ma, Yingluo looked at it and saw that it was a drop-shaped earring made of pink pearls, although the pearl was very small, it was rare that the luster and color were good, and it looked very chic.
Rose is the big girl next to Su Yingzi, and she has always been inseparable from Su Yingzi, and this pink pearl earring is still in Suizhou when Rose was fourteenth birthday, and Su Yingzi specially rewarded Rose. Rose has always loved it and always wears it.
When the old lady saw the earrings, she looked at the pine branch with a sinking face, and the pine branch took a step forward and blessed her body, and said: "The eldest prince of Fang Cai Chi visited the old lady in the house, and the slave maid went out to personally check the old lady's decoction, and indeed inadvertently saw the seventh girl's maid Rose talking to the spring water and spring flowers in the corner of the west wall, and the slave and maid only thought they were chatting, and they didn't care much. ”
Now that there are all the human and material evidence, the old lady smashed the tea cup in her hand on the kang table with angry eyes, and said, "Go and bring the seven girls!" ”
Songzhi went as ordered, Yingluo was silent, but Su Yingying sat next to Ma's side while being angry for Ma's, and persuaded at the same time: "The seventh sister has always been well-behaved and sensible, and this time she must also want to find a good future for herself, thinking that the eldest son Chi would be disgusted with the fifth sister after listening to the rumors, so as to replace the fifth sister to marry the Chi family, so he was confused and did something wrong for a while, grandmother must not be angry about this, the seventh sister is still young, and grandmother teaches slowly." ”
Su Yingying said and raised her eyes to Yingluo, and said, "The seventh sister has always been friendly with the fifth sister, presumably the fifth sister is also willing to forgive the seventh sister, right?" After all, Prince Chi has always been in love with his fifth sister, and he must not believe these rumors. ”
Yingluo squinted her eyes when she heard this, Su Yingying clearly said that Su Yingzi did this despicable thing in order to disturb her and Chi Jingyi's family affair, so as to replace her in marrying Chi Jingyi, in fact, this also makes sense.
This ancient marriage is a good marriage with two surnames, not in the daughter's family itself, she is Su Dingwen's concubine, and Su Yingzi is too, if she has a bad reputation, it is possible to replace Su Yingzi with her sister to marry her.
It seems that Su Yingzi really has this motive, seeing that the old lady and everyone are suddenly looking, Yingluo looked at Su Yingying's eyes flashing slightly-
