Chapter 45: Cleaning up the kitchen
"Qingyao, what else do you want to defend?"
Although Mrs. Huo asked, she already had a rough outline in her heart - no matter what the outcome of this matter is, it can't be separated from Qin Fang, but Qin Fang is an aunt in charge after all, and she can't do anything to her at this time, so she can only start from these maids.

But their confessions were the same, and it seemed that no one else was suspicious except Qingyao.
"They're talking nonsense!" In the end, Qing Yao couldn't see clearly what Huo Yunxuan's purpose was, and kowtowed to Mrs. Huo three times in a row to beg for mercy: "Ancestor, four girls, you must be the master of the slave and maid." ”
"So many witnesses are present, Qingyao, how do you want me to believe you?"
Huo Yunxuan's tone was sad, as if she had been greatly betrayed. After that, he turned to face Mrs. Huo and knelt down for Mrs. Huo.
"It's Yun Xuan who didn't train the people below well and almost caused a big disaster, please ask your grandmother to punish her."
After that, he kowtowed to Mrs. Huo, turned around and kowtowed to Huo Chenyi again, and said, "Please punish my brother." ”
"What does it have to do with you," Huo Chenyi glanced at Huo Yunxuan and sighed: "You don't need to blame yourself, you were almost implicated because of your brother." ”
After that, he looked at Hai Shi with a firm look in his eyes: "Please mother make the final decision." ”
This "mother" can be regarded as an acknowledgment of the status of the Hai family in the Pingyuan Marquis Mansion. In this way, even Pingyuan Hou called his mother, and no one in the Hou Mansion dared to snub the Hai family.
The Hai clan knew that Huo Chenyi was making face for himself, so naturally he would not live up to the plan of Huo Chenyi's brother and sister. He nodded lightly to Huo Chenyi, and then looked down at Qing Yao: "Qing Yao, a Diao slave like you who has bad intentions and tries to harm the master and refuses to tell his purpose is absolutely unusable in our Pingyuan Marquis Mansion, if it is not for the old marquis to accumulate some yin virtue, Diao slaves like you who plot to kill the master must be killed with a cane!" Now for the sake of the old marquis, I will spare your life, and the death penalty can be avoided and the living crime cannot be escaped. ”
After that, he turned his head to Jing's mother beside him and said, "Drag Qingyao to the firewood room, and when Ming'er invites the tooth wife, sell it." ”
Jing's mother bent her knees, because Qingyao's screaming was too loud, Jing's mother plugged her mouth with a cotton cloth, and dragged Qingyao, who was still struggling, out with Tian's mother.
As soon as Qing Yao went out, the room was a lot quieter, and Old Lady Huo looked at Qin Fang, Ma Pozi and the others meaningfully, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a sneer: "You all know what happened today, this time you didn't leave any handle, I will spare you for the time being, if you dare to have a next time, I will send you to the Zongren Mansion one by one!" ”
Drugged Huo Chenyi is considered a murder of the imperial court officials, and it is a matter of losing his head to send him to the Zongren Mansion.
Several people were trembling, and Qin Fang understood Huo Yunxuan's purpose - it was clear that she was taking this opportunity to go out and Qingyao and splash dirty water on herself again.
Ma Pozi and the others didn't even dare to explain half a sentence, and they were busy kowtowing to admit their mistakes. Mrs. Huo said again: "With today's matter, I will never dare to let you work in the kitchen anymore, all of you will be transferred to Aunt Qin's small kitchen to work." ”
After that, he looked at Hai Shi and said, "Didn't I hand over the kitchen steward to you today, you can go back and see how many people were arranged to go to the kitchen and keep an eye on their positions." ”
The Hai family was busy and looked at Huo Yunxuan gratefully. If it weren't for Huo Yunxuan, the Hai clan would never have bled in the kitchen, at most, except for Qin Fang's henchman Ma Pozi, if the other Hai clans all went out, it would be unreasonable, after all, so many people resigned at one time, wouldn't it be better for others to say that they would start cleaning up as soon as they took charge of the house, and they couldn't tolerate people, so it wouldn't be good for their reputation. Now Huo Yunxuan took this opportunity to get rid of Qing Yao, and she also happened to clean up the kitchen with the help of Mrs. Huo, which was a good thing for the two of them.
After Qin Fang left, the matter came to an end, and Mrs. Huo had no need to stay, and after instructing Huo Yunxuan and Huo Chenyi to pay attention in the future, she took Ziyuan's hand and returned to Wuyuan. Hai was also busy going back to choose his own people to work in the kitchen, so he had no reason to stay, and he also helped the green hand back to Wutong Garden.
After there were only two Huo Yunxuan brothers and sisters left in the room, Huo Chenyi looked at Huo Yunxuan with a smile and teased: "I didn't expect you to have such scheming, it's because my brother underestimated you too much before." ”
"After all, my brother and I are brothers and sisters of the same mother, and my brother is so good, it is natural that I can't be too bad as a sister."
After that, he winked at Huo Chenyi, and after gossiping with Huo Chenyi for a long time, he asked about the matter: "Last time, my brother said that in a few months, his 'injury' would be better, and he would go to the battlefield to find the fifth master...... But really? ”
Huo Chenyi nodded, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What?" ”
Huo Yunxuan also raised her eyebrows, smiling mysteriously: "My sister persuaded my brother that this time, it is best for my brother to stay in Beijing, so that he can better help the fifth master." ”
