Chapter 182: The earrings are stolen
The cuttlefish returned to the spring hall worriedly, and as soon as she entered the door, she saw the green pothos standing in the courtyard with a puff of anger, her cheeks flushed, as if she had been greatly wronged.
Cuttlefish and Ruyi hurriedly stepped forward to ask her what had happened.
Green Pothos was angry and anxious, and she couldn't say anything, "The slave and maid were just about to put on a new tablecloth for you, but as soon as you entered the house, you saw Xue Zhu sneaking around in the house, still holding something in her hand, and the slave and maid asked her to hand over the things, but she not only refused to hand them over, but also pushed the slave and maid away and told the slave and maid not to talk nonsense, and then ran out." ”
Ruyi frowned, and her tone was a little displeased, "How can there be such a thing, this Xuezhu is too bold!" ”
The cuttlefish patted the pothos on the shoulder and comforted, "You speak slowly, don't worry." ”
The pothos was so angry that she was about to cry.
"What's even more annoying is that no one wants to believe the slave at all, Xue Zhu said that she didn't steal, others believe her, but they don't believe in the slave, and some people say that the slave deliberately framed Xue Zhu."
Pothos has always been honest and honest, cuttlefish knows her, she won't lie, let alone frame anyone.
The cuttlefish entered the house with Ruyi and Pothos, and asked the two of them to look carefully to see if they had lost anything.
Luluo went to the dresser and said, "Xuezhu was standing here at that time, and I don't know what he took away." ”
Ruyi passed, took the makeup box, and counted it carefully, and suddenly she burst out, "Sure enough!" ”
The cuttlefish asked curiously, "What, did you find out what was missing?" ”
Ruyi opened the makeup box and presented it to the cuttlefish, "Master, there was originally a pair of red coral earrings here, but now they are gone, they must have been stolen by Xuezhu." ”
These red coral earrings were awarded by the emperor two years ago and are the cuttlefish's favorite earrings.
The cuttlefish's eyes froze, and his voice became cold, "Go, call Xue Zhu, I want to see how hard her mouth can be." ”
A moment later. Xuezhu was brought over by Ruyi, this is the first time that the cuttlefish has paid attention to Xuezhu's appearance, she has a delicate face and a pair of hooked peach eyes. At first glance, she looks like a beauty.
"You're Xuezhu?" The cuttlefish looked at her coldly, "The green pothos has already told the palace everything about Fang Cai, what else do you have to say?" ”
Xue Zhu knelt on the ground all of a sudden, and shook his head in denial, "Hui Niangniang." The slave maid just came in to clean, not a thief, Sister Green Pothos may have seen it wrong, so she wronged the slave maid. ”
The green pothos was angry, and took a sip, "You are talking nonsense, I have already sued you, and you are not allowed to enter the master's house, why do you still want to come in?" When did you clean this place? ”
Xue Zhu was choked and speechless, so he could only bow his head and kneel. Wait for the cuttlefish to speak.
The cuttlefish stared at Xue Zhu and asked sharply, "What are you doing in the house of this palace, this palace has no patience to spend with you, you better tell the truth quickly!" ”
Xue Zhu's face turned red, her head lowered deeper, and she whispered, "The slave didn't do anything, it's just ...... I just wanted to clean up, and the slave went out after Sister Green Pothos came in. Didn't take anything. ”
The cuttlefish looked displeased, "This palace will give you another chance, if you don't say it, then this palace will send someone to search your house." If you really find something, this palace won't spare you! But if you're telling the truth now, maybe this palace can still open up. ”
As soon as these words came out, Xue Zhu's expression immediately changed, and she was a little hesitant and a little timid. He refused to speak.
Ruyi hummed on the side, "Don't you see the coffin and don't cry, the pair of earrings in the makeup box are gone, didn't you take it?" If you really annoy your mother, the consequences are not something you can bear. ”
Xue Zhu gasped nervously and hesitated for a while before he was willing to speak the truth, "Okay, the slave admits that the slave and maid stole something, but ...... It's just earrings, and I didn't steal anything else. ”
The cuttlefish narrowed his eyes and shouted, "What do you mean earrings?" Then what else do you want to take, is it possible to steal all the valuable objects in the palace? You have made a mistake and not repented, it is simply brazen! ”
Xue Zhu didn't dare to refute after being reprimanded, she was very panicked, she thought that the cuttlefish was from the palace, and she shouldn't care about the little things, and wanted to fool the matter, but the cuttlefish didn't think so.
Stealing is making a mistake, regardless of size, not to mention that coral earrings are already worth a lot of money, how can you allow Xue Zhu to fool around at will.
The cuttlefish endured his anger and instructed Ruyi, "Go and call Aunt Wei, you have to discuss this matter with her." ”
After all, Aunt Wei is responsible for all the big and small things here, and it is not good for cuttlefish to punish alone.
As soon as Xue Zhu heard that she was going to find Aunt Wei over, she immediately panicked, she stepped forward and begged, "Niangniang, don't call Aunt Wei to come, the slave knows that she is wrong, the slave and the maid don't dare anymore, please Niangniang." ”
How could a person with unclean hands and feet still have a cuttlefish, and it was just the right opportunity to send out the subordinates of the Chunhao Palace.
The cuttlefish's voice was cold, "Don't ask anymore, it's useless, this palace will never want to see you in the Chunhao Palace in the future, just wait for Aunt Wei to take you away." ”
"Don't, Niangniang, Aunt Wei won't spare the slave and maid." After that, Xuezhu cried out with a "wow", looking very scared.
The cuttlefish couldn't help but wonder, she didn't see her crying when she scolded Xue Zhu just now, how could she be afraid of being like this when she mentioned Aunt Wei.
It seems that Aunt Wei must be extremely strict with her subordinates.
After a while, Aunt Wei rushed over resolutely, she was angry, glared at Xuezhu fiercely, and then she hurriedly asked the cuttlefish to plead guilty, "Niangniang, it's all because the slave and maid have no way to discipline them, so this happened, please ask Niangniang to confess." ”
The cuttlefish will naturally give her face, so she just smiled and said lightly, "It's just a trivial matter, aunt doesn't have to be so nervous, Xuezhu is your subordinate, and if you make a mistake, you should be left to deal with it." ”
"Yes, the slave will definitely handle this matter properly and give the mother an explanation."
The cuttlefish paused, and said, "It's just one point, this palace has always liked to be quiet, and now there are too many people in the Chunhao Palace, plus today's Xuezhu matter, this palace wants to ask my aunt to transfer all the people here, and none of them will be left, and it is enough for the palace to have Ruyi around them." ”
After hearing this, Aunt Wei's face stiffened, and she was a little stunned.
Soon, she softened her face again and responded in a low voice, "Listen to Niangniang." ”
The cuttlefish smiled, and now Xuezhu did her a great favor and gave her the opportunity to clean up the Chunhao Palace.
Aunt Wei turned her head and glared at Xue Zhu angrily, and scolded sharply, "You are so bold, you even dare to steal the things of Concubine Qian, this time you must not be spared!" (To be continued.) )
