30. Let go of her

Xi Fang Yuan, Nguyen Van Trung and Kim are all there.

By this time it was already getting dark. Under the sun, the maid and the woman stood in a courtyard, and the accompanying moon who knelt alone on the ground became more and more thin and pitiful.

Ruan Qingzhi walked over quickly and dragged the girl up: "It's cold on the ground, what are you doing on your knees?" ”

", you kneel too!" Kim grimaced and shouted at her.

Ruan Qingzhi carefully held Banyue steady, and then turned around and said calmly: "It's not impossible to kneel, but today's daughter is innocent and doesn't want to be punished." ”

"Huh, not guilty?" Jin sneered, holding a paper bag in his hand and shaking it at her: "You said you are not guilty, so what is this?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi didn't answer, and turned her head to look at Mrs. Qian.

The latter knelt down, kowtowed, and said, "Miss, the old slave is new here, and he doesn't know anything!" ”

Banyue immediately raised her foot and kicked her shoulder, gritting her teeth with hatred: "Okay, you two-faced old pious woman, you're still lying at this time!" This paper bag is clearly yours, you said that the second lady came to poison the eldest lady! ”

"Shut up!" Nguyen Van Trung shouted angrily.

Banyue shook off Ruan Qingzhi and knelt down again, her back straightened: "Master, the slave doesn't dare to lie, this paper bag was ...... yesterday"

"With the moon!" Ruan Qingzhi interrupted her in a loud voice, "The old lady must answer truthfully when she asks questions, and don't talk nonsense!" Yun'er is my sister, how could she get poison to harm me? ”

Banyue looked up in amazement.

Jin breathed a sigh of relief, and his face suddenly softened a lot: "You are quite responsible." - So, are you willing to confess your sins? ”

"Don't admit your guilt!" Ruan Qingzhi looked at her in surprise, "I only said that the paper bag was mine, how could I ever say that I would confess?" What sin do I confess? ”

Ruan Wenzhong tightened his brows, looking annoyed: "Your grandmother was poisoned at night, and now you admit that the poison is yours, the evidence is ironclad, why don't you admit your guilt?" ”

Jin sighed and stepped forward with a look of regret: "You foolish child...... Say what you are good! Although you made a big mistake, fortunately, you took out the prescription in time to detoxify the old lady, and you can be regarded as having a clear conscience. Now that you have confessed your sins honestly, your father and I will intercede for you in front of the old lady. ”

"Wait!" Ruan Qingzhi avoided her outstretched hand and jumped to the side: "What is a big mistake?" What conscience is still alive? I said I was not guilty! Father, when will I admit that I have poison? ”

Ruan Wenzhong sank his face and shouted angrily: "How are you going to quibble?!" ”

Jin clenched the paper bag in his hand, and his face was ugly: "Didn't you admit that this bag of poison was yours just now?" ”

"No!" Ruan Qingzhi jumped to his feet in a hurry, "I admit that the paper bag is mine, but when will I admit that the paper bag is poison?" ”

Kim's mouth widened.

Ruan Wenzhong was a little stunned with anger: "What is it not poison?" What is worth protecting with the moon as a life? ”

Ruan Qingzhi stomped his feet and said, "It's brown sugar!" I have never eaten a full meal since I was a child, the food I eat and the soup I drink are all rancid, and I have been hungry for more than ten years and I am now riddled with diseases...... My girl knew that I often fainted suddenly and had to drink a bowl of brown sugar water to recover, so after saving some money in the past two years, I often bought brown sugar to take with me! Of course, Banyue will protect it as if it were my lifeβ€”that's my life! ”

"That's nonsense!" Nguyen Van Trung and Kim spoke in unison.

Ruan Qingzhi was so angry that tears came down, and he snatched the paper bag from Jin's hand, opened it, and poured all the dark red powder inside into his mouth without looking.

Ruan Van Trung was stunned, and the Kim family was even more stunned.

Tears dripped down with the moon. Mrs. Qian trembled with fright, knelt on the ground and couldn't stop retreating.

The strange atmosphere lasted for a long time, Ruan Wenzhong was the first to come back to his senses, but he didn't know what to say for a while, and he paused for a while before he coldly reprimanded: "I think you are just playing tricks!" What 'I haven't eaten a full meal since I was a child', you are the daughter of the Prime Minister's house, who dares to starve you? ”

Ruan Qingzhi wiped away a handful of tears and sneered: "Whether the people in the kitchen dare to starve me or not, my mother knows best!" Qian Mom, don't you say? ”

Mrs. Qian froze, knelt on the ground for a while, and finally replied in a trembling voice: "The people in the kitchen have treated the eldest lady harshly, and the lady probably doesn't know." ”

"Why, is there such a thing?!" Kim was shocked.

Mrs. Qian kowtowed and said, "There is indeed a thing. Madam, the food sent by the kitchen to Xi Fangyuan was all burnt, the vegetable soup was cold and rancid, and it was impossible to eat at all, and there was not even a plate of dishes, only two plates of pickles...... It's better than sending Hanako! ”

Jin's face turned blue and black, and he jumped like thunder: "How can this be reasonable...... How dare they! Mother Xue, go and call me from the old Qin family in the kitchen! ”

Ruan Qingzhi said coldly: "I don't want to hear about the kitchen, I just want to ask my father and mother, has the charge of poisoning my grandmother been confirmed?" ”

Jin snorted and gasped for a while with a black face, gritted his teeth and said, "Even if there is no poison in that paper bag, your suspicion has not been ruled out!" Qingzhi, don't blame your mother for being ruthless, the stakes are very high, and anyone who is suspected can't let it go! ”

"So what?" Ruan Qingzhi turned his head to look at her and asked mockingly.

Jin avoided her gaze and looked at Ruan Wenzhong carefully: "Master......"

Ruan Wenzhong's face cooled again, and his eyes looked at Ruan Qingzhi with a heavy gaze: "The servant girl has brown sugar hidden in her arms, which seems reasonable, but it is actually trying to cover it up!" You want to use this method to make me and your mother feel that you have wronged you, and easily believe in your innocence because of guilt, but you don't know that a truly innocent person would never do such an unreasonable thing! ”

Ruan Qingzhi was stunned.

Ruan Wenzhong glared at her and said in disgust: "You are so vicious and cunning at a young age, how will you be able to do it in the future!" - Fu'er, take this evil girl to the firewood room immediately and take strict care of her! ”

A few of the little guys agreed, and surrounded them with a bang.

Ruan Qingzhi was angry: "Are you unreasonable? You say I poisoned, but what about the evidence? When you were an official, did you just rely on guesswork? ”

Ruan Wenzhong was even more angry when he heard this: "Your grandmother has been safe and sound for many years, but you went to visit her once and she was poisoned, this incident itself is evidence!" Drag it out! ”

All the little guys roared in unison and approached, and Fu'er, who was the leader, said coldly: "Miss, you better go with us to the firewood room by yourself, if you really want to wait for us to start dragging, it won't look good!" ”

"I'm not going!" Ruan Qingzhi glared at him angrily.

Fu'er also sneered politely, and rushed over and grabbed her arm with an arrow step: "Miss, offended!" ”

The rude pull aroused Ruan Qingzhi's anger, and she grabbed Fu'er's hand instead, and struggled like a mad mania: "Let go of me, I'm not guilty!" ”

Ruan Wenzhong shouted sharply beside him: "You don't have to show her mercy!" Beat! Hit hard! ”

Hearing this, several small servants immediately came to their senses, and those who didn't dare to do it began to unceremoniously greet Ruan Qingzhi with their fists on his shoulders and back.

Banyue had already been restrained by the little guys, and Ruan Qingzhi could take care of this side alone, but not there, and was embarrassed for a while.

Seeing that there is only one way left, there is only one way to catch it.

At this time, a sharp shout suddenly sounded from behind the bamboo bushes next to him: "Let go of her!" ”
