Chapter XXIX
This little Xue's movements are quite fast.
After a while, Xue Hui's room was full of people, and even Xiao An, who had never seen him on the big day, came, which was quite a bit of a three-hall meeting.
Seeing the pride that Xiao Xue's eyes couldn't hide, Qin E also guessed seven or eight points.
Respectfully walking into the room, Qin E bowed, as if she was puzzled, she deliberately asked, "Mother, why is it so lively here?" ”
"Did you say it yourself or did you want me to say it?" Xue Hui put the teacup heavily on the table, and the tea splashed.
The majestic look was filled with disappointment and coldness, which made Qin E feel unhappy.
Mother's ears are too soft, and it is easy to believe the words of others. She was wronged and didn't care, but she was angry because of this unwarranted thing, and she really couldn't do it.
This long-tongued woman who sow discord is really annoying.
"What does the mother want her daughter-in-law to say?" Qin E's back was straight, and she asked without humility or arrogance.
What she hasn't done, she sits upright.
"Sister-in-law, you can admit it, the purse around the waist of the second prince is a gift from you." Xiao Shen frowned and said.
He also thought that it was his own time, and a sincere heart was finally seen by the second prince, so he handed over the important task to himself, and it turned out that it was because of Qin E.
She and her eldest brother have worshiped heaven and earth and entered the cave room, and even he felt ashamed of doing such a shameless thing.
"Second brother, don't wronged my sister-in-law, sister-in-law has been stupid since she was a child, and she doesn't know how to be a female celebrity, this purse is from the hands of my late mother, is it possible that my mother also sewed a gift to the second prince?"
The sneering voice was a little lazy, and Qin E met his gaze honestly, not dodging at all.
She and Chu Yan are innocent, but there is always a lot of dirty water to pour on her.
"Don't understand female red? Are you too embarrassed to say such a thing? As if he had heard something funny, Xiao Xue smiled exaggeratedly.
"Auntie understands?" Qin E sneered.
As far as she knew, if Xiao Xue's family hadn't used her wrist to marry Xiao Ling back then, otherwise a girl who didn't know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting would have been able to enter the gate of Xiao Mansion.
"Sister, look how arrogant your daughter-in-law is, she makes a mistake and laughs at her aunt." was poked in the short spot, and Xiao Xue immediately jumped up.
She is now the second lady of the Xiao family, and she has endless glory and wealth, who cares if she will be a female celebrity?
Originally, the affair between the daughter-in-law and the second prince had already made Xue Hui very irritable, and she couldn't help but sigh when she was so troubled, and her chest was also very stuffy.
"Hand me your purse."
Hearing this, Qin E took off her purse and handed it to the maidservant behind Xue Hui.
A few orchids on the delicate purse are vivid, overlapping embroidery is extremely rare, and the color at the corners is already a little dim, this purse is indeed as Qin E said, some years.
"Shen'er, you have taken a closer look, is the second prince's purse really exactly the same as this?" It was about the reputation of the Xiao family, and Xue Hui had to take it seriously.
Xiao Shen nodded, he sat near Chu Yan, and naturally looked at it very clearly.
"Auntie, you took your sister-in-law to the autumn banquet that day, presumably the ladies and ladies of the famous families in the capital have already seen this purse, the second prince often walks in and out of the palace, and there are many people he meets, but he is afraid of ......"
Xiao Yue'er's words made Xue Huizhi sigh, she didn't know the power of the rumors.
Fortunately, this matter was discovered by Shen'er first, not by outsiders.
"A noble figure like the second prince is categorically impossible to be stupid enough to use a purse to destroy his reputation." Xiao Ling sat on the side and said leisurely while drinking tea.
It was precisely because of this layer of thinking that Xue Hui couldn't make up his mind for a while.
The daughter-in-law is smart and docile, and she doesn't look like a person who would do something deviant, but the second emperor won't take such a big risk, just to make the Xiao family unhappy?
Staring at Xue Hui's sullen expression, Qin E, who was kneeling on the ground, had no idea for a while, after all, she had never seen the purse that Chu Yan was wearing, and Xiao Shen's words alone were not enough to win the trust.
In any case, she had to investigate this matter clearly, and was thinking about a plan when a warm voice sounded at the door.
"Mother, you have to believe her!"
The firm and powerful voice did not allow for half a doubt, and Xiao Changxiu was slowly pushed into the room by Laifu.
He was invited by the crown prince into the palace to discuss matters, and as soon as he returned to the palace, he heard about such a thing.
Qin E turned around slightly, and fell into Xiao Changxiu's anxious eyes, was he worried about himself?
only listened to the servant's words, and chose to believe in himself for no reason, and this trust made Qin E's eyes hot inexplicably.
"Big brother, don't let yourself be wronged in order to favor your sister-in-law." Xiao Yue'er couldn't help but mutter, eldest brother is not a stupid person, but when he encounters something related to Qin E, he becomes unprincipled.
"Has the second sister's own affairs been dealt with? I also have the heart to watch other people's liveliness. As soon as the words changed, Xiao Changxiu unceremoniously counterattacked back.
"Big brother, don't talk nonsense, where does Yue'er have something to deal with." Xiao Yue'er's eyes were empty, and then she obediently closed her mouth.
It's just that Qin E's dissatisfaction has increased by a few points.
"Brother Xiu'er, what Yue'er said is reasonable, our Xiao family will not be the one who is wronged." Xiao Xue's should also be in harmony.
If it weren't for the abbot's nonsense, it would have been impossible for a family like the Xiao family to climb high.
"It's late at night, aunt should go back and rest early, lest she be tired and the second brother should be distressed." The euphemism is sonorous and powerful, and there is no room for rejection.
Xiao Xue's connivance wanted to add oil and vinegar again, but it was not easy to get involved, so he had to leave with Xiao Shen and Xiao Yue'er boringly.
Xiao Quan didn't want to pay attention to these things, so he naturally took the opportunity to leave.
"Mother, you have to trust her in this matter." Sitting in a wheelchair, Xiao Changxiu repeated again.
The words were earnest, so that Qin E couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at him.
Xue Hui sighed helplessly, staring at the purse in his hand, "Xiu'er, some things can't just look at the surface......
She is quite satisfied with this daughter-in-law, but she has not been married into Xiao Mansion for a long time, and she knows people and faces.
In case you hide your evil intentions and cultivate your child's good heart, you will inevitably be deceived.
"Mother, the daughter-in-law will investigate this matter clearly, please believe that the daughter-in-law is sincere to the Xiao family and Changxiu." Qin E said seriously.
She had already missed it once, and it was absolutely impossible for her to make the same mistake again.
"How do you investigate? Could it be that you want to find the second prince to question him face to face? Xue Hui raised his eyebrows.
Qin E nodded, of course, it was not as simple as questioning, she also had to find out who was behind the trouble.
