Chapter 267, shielding the black hand

Changsheng had fully understood the old lady's attitude, she got up in shock, and said with grief and indignation: "After I returned to the house after attending the family banquet, I thought that the second master and the third master had drunk too much, the second master had the second lady and several aunts to take care of, but the third master did not have anyone around to serve, so I was a little uneasy, the third master has always taken care of me and Shu'er, and it would be bad if something happened on such a happy day." But the old lady also drank and was dizzy, and she didn't dare to disturb in the middle of the night, and the second master was too drunk to wake up, and the second lady had to take care of the sons and young ladies, and there was nothing to be done about it, so she sent a full house to the third master's house to see how he was, if it didn't matter, I would rest assured that I would go to sleep. ”

The old lady nodded shamefully and praised her for a good job. After Ming Qing and Ming Jing were released from prison and returned home, the only few girls in the family had their own things to do, and they didn't have the extra financial resources to hire people for the time being, so they didn't match them with maids and girls.

It doesn't matter if there are two aunts in the Ming and Qing dynasties to take care of her, but there is no one around Mingjing to serve, she just doesn't know, just hire one less person to save some silver, and only instruct Xia's sister-in-law to wash his clothes in her spare time, and just take time to clean the house every day, there is no fixed person around Mingjing to serve. He drank too much tonight and no one took care of him, in case something happened, not to mention the marriage with the Fu family, if it caused any more turmoil, the Xie family would not be able to afford it.

"It's my negligence, I should have sent someone to serve him a long time ago, and this gang of evil slaves will have no chance to frame the girl"

Changsheng didn't answer her words, but said: "After coming back from the house, it was said that the third master's house was full of alcohol, and people couldn't wake up from sleep, so I was a little worried, so I came to take a look." I also knew that it was not suitable for a lonely man and a widow in the middle of the night, so I wanted to call the whole house to come over, but I didn't worry about Shu'er sleeping alone, so I had to wait here alone regardless of suspicion. After I came over, the third master still couldn't wake up, I wanted to call people and felt that I was too fussed, and it was not a big deal, maybe the third master would wake up, so I sat aside and waited, and after a while the third master was still unconscious, I was a little worried, so I wanted to go to the kitchen to make some sobering soup for him, and by the way, I asked the Xia steward to come and see, who knew that as soon as I opened the door, Mama Zhang brought someone to rush in, shouting What catch me I am really wronged to death"

Changsheng said and walked over and kicked Mama Zhang to the ground, and scolded angrily: "This faceless and black-hearted old pious woman, after coming in, she shouted to catch the rape without saying a word, and saw that the third master was still unconscious, and I was about to go out in good clothes, so I actually let this mother-in-law hug me and not let me move, and I came up like a madman to grab my hair and take off my clothes, fortunately, Sister-in-law Xia grabbed her, otherwise I would have the face to see these old ladies I really didn't expect that there are such black-hearted minions in the world who are defiled I don't say it, Even the third master's name has been ruined, you didn't look at the third master, and he hasn't woken up until now, if he really has adultery and is caught by you, he doesn't want your life? ”

The old lady is very angry, and it is just a matter of catching a traitor, how can she not catch someone forcibly taking off her clothes and defiling someone for adultery? Is this forcing Zhou Changsheng to rely on Mingjing? This old minion is so hateful that good things are almost bad in her hands

Seeing that Changsheng didn't mention the behind-the-scenes instigators at all, he only pushed the responsibility on Mama Zhang, knowing that she was saving face for Ming Qing and Lin Xinhui, she believed that with Changsheng's cleverness, she would never guess who did it, and she was really grateful in her heart, she remembered this favor and would repay her.

Mama Zhang was kicked to the ground by Changsheng, and when she saw Changsheng putting all the responsibility on her, she turned pale with fright, and just wanted to defend herself and thought of something, so she lay on the ground with a dejected face and cried.

And on the bed, Mingjing still looked drunk and unconscious, and from time to time he muttered dissatisfied, as if he was making a strange noise, Changsheng knew that he had endured it very hard, the hateful Mama Zhang just now ripped off her clothes, he was afraid that he had endured it to the limit, if the old lady did not show up again, Changsheng believed that he would definitely jump up and beat Mama Zhang half to death. And the old lady saw that Mingjing was still unconscious, and he didn't wake up even when he came in, and he didn't wake up even when he came in, and he was already completely convinced that he was indeed drunk and unconscious.

Sister-in-law Xia saw that Changsheng not only did not blame herself, but also excused herself, she was ashamed and moved, she was a clever person, and when she heard that Changsheng was pushing the responsibility on Mama Zhang, she understood what she meant, although the real mastermind behind the scenes was Lin Xinhui, but can the old lady punish her own daughter-in-law? In the end, it is not the blame of these of them who are subordinates, now the limelight is pointing to Mama Zhang, and the old lady also seems to have this intention, Mama Zhang herself does not dare to recruit the second lady out, if she is confused and tells the truth, won't it make the old lady hate to death?

Just as she was hesitating, the old lady thought that when she came in just now, Sister-in-law Xia was holding Mama Zhang and preventing her from taking off Changsheng's clothes, knowing that she was a sensible person, and the whole family was here, so she would definitely not talk nonsense, so she stared at her and asked, "You get up, tell me what's going on?"

Sister-in-law Xia quickly made up her mind, she stood up, walked to the old lady, pointed to Mama Zhang and said: "After dinner, the old slave just cleaned up the kitchen and was ready to go to sleep, Mama Zhang ran and said that I should do something with her, I have always respected her elder, thinking that I would come to help her, but I waited outside the third master's house and was not allowed to make a sound, and after waiting for a while, I didn't do anything, the lights in the house were still on, and I couldn't hear any sound, I was a little strange, so I asked what was going on, Mama Zhang only said to wait a while. After a long while, the old slave was so frozen, suddenly someone pushed the door open, and before she could see who it was, Mama Zhang grabbed us and rushed over together, shouting something 'catch the traitor and catch the adulterer'

I was startled, and then I saw that it was Miss Zhou, and I was about to ask what was going on, so Mama Zhang asked Mrs. Du to hold Miss Zhou's arm and prevent her from moving, pulled her hair apart, and wanted to strip her naked, and asked me to help. Although the old slave has not been in the world, he also knows that this is not an authentic thing, although the third master has been asleep and never woke up, but how can he pick up the clothes of the big girl in front of a man? Isn't this iniquity? Only then did I know that I had fallen for Mama Zhang, so I grabbed her and didn't let her go, and then the old lady came in, and that's the way it is, now that the girl said it, the old slave simply regretted dying, and she really shouldn't have listened to Mama Zhang's words to do such a hurtful thing."

Sister-in-law Xia burst into tears when she said this, and even slapped herself hard.

The old lady was relieved to see that she was very smart to put all the matter on Mama Zhang, and didn't mention Lin Xinhui for half a word.

Afraid that Du Pozi would be stupid, she was frightened and told the truth to recruit Lin Xinhui, so she simply stopped asking her, comforted Changsheng for a few words, and then forced her to look at Mama Zhang and asked, "Did everyone hear what they said clearly?" Isn't that so? ”

Mama Zhang clearly knew that she had become a scapegoat, but she couldn't defend herself, and she knew that if she took all the things on herself, maybe there was a way to live, if she really told the truth, I was afraid that there would be no place to bury her to make such a big move, Lin Xinhui didn't show up, and the old lady didn't pass it on, she just wanted her to stay out of the matter.

She kowtowed respectfully a few times, cried and said: "The old slave should die, jealous of Miss Zhou's youth, beauty and knowledge, and deeply liked by the master, I always look at her unpleasantly, and want to find a chance to rectify her, tonight I happened to see her enter the third master's house, so I had a bad heart and wanted to rectify her, so I found the two of them to catch the rape together, who knew that the light in the house had been on, so I had to wait, and then I saw Miss Zhou come out, I was afraid that things would be yellow, so I desperately rushed over to catch her, and blamed her for having an adulterous relationship with the third master, but I saw that Miss Zhou was neatly dressed, the hair is slippery, and the third master is so drunk that he can't wake up, so he didn't wake up with such a big movement, he knew that he had miscalculated, and he was afraid of being punished by the master, so he had to think of a poisonous plan, and wanted to strip Miss Zhou's clothes and stuff her into the quilt.

After speaking, he knelt on the ground and wept bitterly, begging bitterly: "The old slave was blinded by lard for a while, and he did such a hurtful thing, and begged the old lady to spare the old slave for the sake of the old slave who had no relatives and no reason and was loyal, and the old slave would not dare to die in the future."

The old lady didn't say anything, she snorted coldly and turned around and didn't say anything, Mama Zhang quickly understood that the old lady intended to let herself go, whether she was dead or alive today, her life was in Changsheng's hands.

She climbed in front of Changsheng, kowtowed like pounding garlic and begged: "The girl is beautiful, virtuous and learned, she must be the fairy of the sky, I beg the girl to be merciful and let go of the old slave's life, and she will repay the girl as a cow and a horse in the next life."

Changsheng turned his head away and ignored her, letting her plead in every way, but his heart was thinking quickly. She was sent by the Pei family to serve the old lady, no matter how wrong she was, if the old lady disposed of her, she would always fall into the face of the Pei family, and now the only thing the Xie family can rely on is the Pei family, so the old lady will definitely let her go.

If she wanted to really deal with her, she would have let people drag her down and open it a long time ago, but if she spared her, it would be too unreasonable, so if she didn't express her position, didn't she just want to let herself express her position and spare her?

But an old minion, whether she wants her life or not has no big impact on herself, it is better to let her go, so that the old lady's heart can also make her happily agree to her request, not to mention that the rape has no effect on herself, on the contrary, she is the beneficiary, but she must torture the old slave well, and dare to pick her clothes.

Mama Zhang kowtowed and begged for mercy in great fear, her forehead was bleeding, Changsheng's face was full of indignation at first, then she couldn't bear it, and then she was embarrassed and unwilling, everyone could see that she was struggling.

Mama Zhang's crying became louder and louder, and finally Mingjing seemed to be woken up by him, he lifted the quilt, squinted his eyes, and asked puzzledly: "What's the matter with the noise?" What are so many people doing in my house? Why did the mother come too? What happened in the middle of the night? ”
