Chapter Forty-Nine: Planting Blame
"What nonsense! Do you think I'm going to believe what you say now?"
Luo Ruxue has never seen others despise her in her life, she is angry now, no matter what Xu Jianniang says, she will no longer believe it, after all, she saw the stolen things on Xu Jianniang's body with her own eyes.
I can't go to the official mansion, I can't go to the official mansion!" Xu Jianniang kept repeating this sentence in a dazzle, like a madman who went mad. But Luo Ruxue didn't listen to her explanation at all, what should she do? At this time, she had to do something to attract her attention. By the way, Luo Ruxue has always been at odds with the second young grandmother.
"Yes, I remembered, it was Shen Xingchen, it must have been that girl who framed me. ”
When Luo Ruxue heard Shen Xingchen's three words, a trace of gloom flashed in her eyes. She remembers this little girl who wants to covet her father-in-law very clearly. She thought that she had been punished once last time and made her behave, but it didn't take long for her to make things happen again.
"She is a girl from Liuyingju, who has no grievances with you, why should she frame you, do you want to deal with me with this kind of lie that can be broken now?"
When Luo Ruxue heard this, she was immediately frightened. Is that girl really crazy in Chunya? It turned out that she thought that sending Shen Xingchen to her **** was what she meant by Luo Ruxue. But listening to Luo Ruxue's words, she obviously didn't know what Shen Xingchen was doing in the back kitchen now. Holding chicken feathers as an arrow, or holding Luo Ruxue's name, Xu Jianniang was afraid that Luo Ruxue would blame Chunya for this, and she was afraid that she would really be sent to the official mansion.
After weighing it repeatedly, Xu Jianniang decided to tell the matter one by one: "Shen Xingchen's little girl is now in the back kitchen." Didn't that girl who didn't know what to do a few days ago still want to confuse the eldest young master? Chunya's girl has been by your side for two years, and you know her temperament, she doesn't want to teach that girl a lesson. ”
Xu Jianniang deliberately distorted Chunya's original intention, she secretly glanced up at Luo Ruxue, and saw that she seemed to have a loose expression, so she hurriedly continued to divert her gaze while the iron was hot.
"The old slave can't see this kind of girl who doesn't know the sky and doesn't know how to be grateful, and gave her a little lesson in the back kitchen in the past two days, maybe the girl hated me and wanted to disturb the peace of the Yun family. It doesn't matter if you wronged the old slave, but you must not let those who have evil intentions go unpunished, you must deal with this matter carefully. ”
If it is according to Xu Jianniang's reasoning, it will be said in the past, but the only puzzling thing now is that Shen Xingchen has always appeared in her courtyard, how did she get the jade earrings. Luo Ruxue couldn't figure it out for a while, she rubbed the painful temples on both sides, and glanced at Xu Jianniang with great tiredness: "
Drag it to the firewood room and lock it up first, whether this matter is true or not, I will find out. ”
After Xu Jianniang was dragged away, everyone watching in the courtyard unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. If they don't find the real culprit who stole things for a day, their heads will be pinned to the waistband of their trousers, as long as Luo Ruxue says a word, they will fall anytime and anywhere, just like the little girl who was kicked to death by Luo Ruxue in the morning. Everyone didn't say a word, and they all consciously left the courtyard that made them depressed.
Everyone is gone, and Luo Ruxue only leaves Xia He and a girl waiting by her side.
"Xia He, what do you think of this matter?
Xia He helped Luo Ruxue massage both temples, pondered for a while before he said unhurriedly: "Xia He has always been by your side, and I haven't seen the girl of the second young grandmother in the past few days. ”
Xia He said the question that Luo Ruxue was puzzled about, she frowned and thought for a while: "Then you mean that Xu Jianniang is lying and deceiving us?"
Xia He's fingers paused, and his mind recalled the appearance of Xu Jianniang's words just now, which didn't seem to be a lie.
"Xia He didn't see Aunt Xu appear in your yard either. ”
"You ......"
Luo Ruxue opened her eyes and glared at Xia He angrily, Xia He was glared at by her, and quickly knelt down beside her but didn't speak.
Whether it is Shen Xingchen or Xu Jianniang, these two people don't know martial arts, and they can't be invisible, how can they steal those jewelry that are not a small number without disturbing themselves. Could it be that there have really been Jiangyang thieves in Tongcheng County recently.
"Forget it, forget it, you get ready in the afternoon, I'm going home. ”
Luo Ruxue still decided to go home, and she hadn't been home for a long time, and she didn't know how her family was doing.
After Luo Ruxue said this, she closed her eyes impatiently. Xia He listened to Luo Ruxue's words and immediately went to prepare for Luo Ruxue's homecoming. In less than a cup of tea, Xia He followed Luo Ruxue out of the Yun family.
The news that Xu Jianniang was locked up in the firewood room by Luo Ruxue's people spread throughout the Yun family in an instant. Shen Xingchen and Zhu Curtain were the first people in the back kitchen to know the news, and when Xu Jianniang was dragged to the firewood room, the two of them were chopping wood in the firewood room. Although the blood stains on Xu Jianniang's face have dried up, her face is full of mush, and it is difficult for people not to pay attention.
Looking at her like this, presumably the jade earrings are exposed. Wait for the person who makes her look like this and has the right to detain her, who else can there be besides Luo Ruxue!
Zhu Curtain looked surprised, and he couldn't even speak: "This, this, what's going on?"
The two family members unceremoniously threw Xu Jianniang away and threw her on the messy firewood room. and began to urge Shen Xingchen and Zhu Curtain to go out, after the confused Zhu Curtain and the calm Shen Xingchen were pushed out, the two Ding did not answer the question of Zhu Curtain, and said solemnly while locking the door: "It's none of your business, don't ask." There is also the door of this firewood room, unless the grandmother has an order to open it, if you let the people inside escape, all the people in your back kitchen, don't even want to live. ”
The movement of the firewood room has long attracted the attention of people in the back kitchen, and as soon as this work is spoken, everyone's hearts suddenly rise up and down. Although I don't know what mistakes Xu Jianniang made, it will definitely not be a trivial matter to let the young grandmother teach her a lesson. Everyone immediately began to discuss, and their hearts speculated about the possible cause.
"This Aunt Xu went out for a trip, why did she provoke the young grandmother?" Zhu Curtain was very puzzled, and approached Shen Xingchen's ear and laughed in a voice that the two of them could hear: "But seeing her like this, I am still a little happy, what should I do?" Xingchen, look at my face, do you show your happiness. ”
Shen Xingchen raised his apricot eyes and looked at the bead curtain with some amusement. Shen Xingchen was a little happy in his heart, accompanied by doubts, according to Luo Ruxue's temperament, if he found out that Xu Jianniang had stolen, it should not be to send her to the official or a heavier punishment, it was definitely not as simple as closing the firewood room, was it not Chunya interceding for her, which saved Xu Jianniang's life? Or, just with that one thing, could not completely convince Luo Ruxue?
