Chapter 10: Mass

Listening to their singing and harmony, Zhen Yuanshan's face changed unpredictably, making it impossible to see who he believed.

The scene gradually froze.

Zhen Chutian glanced at Tang Meihua and the others, knowing that although Yisi was a good evidence, Xue Ying really had no motive to steal the jewelry, they blindly denied it, maybe Zhen Yuanshan would believe it.

Looks like she's going to do a killer move.

"Give me something."

System: "I'm sorry, there is no tacit understanding between this system and the host, and there is no telepathy, could you please explain what it is?"

Zhen Chutian resisted the urge to hit someone: "A good thing that can make people can't help but tell the truth." ”

Drip.

She grabbed the porcelain vase in her hand and slowly walked to Xue Ying's side: "If you admit it directly, I will make you suffer less." ”

"Shut up! Do you still want to bend into a trick?" Tang Meihua immediately reprimanded, but she was very happy in her heart.

This idiot, once he wants to do it, even if the master suspects Xue Ying of stealing jewelry, he will believe that Zhen Chutian is eager to solve this matter and will rely on her.

Xue Ying raised her head even more arrogantly: "What the slave and maid have not done, even if you kill the slave and maid, you will not admit it!"

"Naturally, I won't hit you."

Zhen Chutian took out the porcelain bottle leisurely: "Smell what is this?"

Her cold words made everyone a little stunned.

Xue Ying leaned over to smell it for some reason, and immediately sneezed, and then the itching sensation spread from her nose to her whole body.

A moment later, a burst of her screams erupted in the courtyard: "Ah, itchy, itchy!"

In front of everyone's eyes, Xue Ying scratched her whole body, fell to the ground and kept wriggling like a worm, rubbing her back desperately.

"This, what's going on? What's in your hand?!" Tang Meihua was taken aback, and a deep uneasiness followed.

Zhen Chutian ignored her, just looked at Xue Ying condescendingly: "In another half an hour, you will die of rotting all over your body, I will only give you one chance, whether you want to live or not is all up to you." ”

"Slave ......"

Xue Ying panted and struggled, and after hearing this, she subconsciously looked at Tang Meihua.

"Say, did you steal the Yueshui Jade?" Zhen Chutian stretched out his hand and clenched it into a fist: "This is the antidote pill, as long as you don't tell the truth, I will throw it away." ”

"Don't throw! I'll tell you the truth, can't I tell the truth!" Xue Ying shouted, and finally admitted defeat.

Tang Meihua's face was pale, and she couldn't say a word, so she had to stare at her, trying to threaten her not to say it in this way.

But Xue Ying was so uncomfortable that she couldn't wait to hit the wall, where could she care about being loyal or disloyal: "Yes, it was the slave who stole Yueshuiyu." ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned.

This is a first-class maid with a head and a face beside the housemother, who can do such a shameful thing!

Zhen Chutian hooked his lips and asked in a low voice, "Tell me, did you want to steal it yourself, or did someone instruct it?"

"The eldest lady instructed the slave to steal it! She doesn't want Miss to be your housekeeper, so she wants to use this matter to blame you for your incompetence, so that the adults can take back the right to be a housekeeper!"

When Xue Ying said this, she was itchy again, and immediately crawled over and grabbed Zhen Chutian's dress: "Miss, what the slave and maid said is the truth, please spare the slave and maid!" This is all the idea of the eldest lady!"

After hearing these words, Zhen Yuanshan's face was completely gloomy.

Tang Meihua was so frightened that she couldn't possess her body, and hurriedly retorted: "Hu, nonsense! When did I make you do something like this? You just want to stay alive!"

Xue Ying itched to beat herself up, and she was not afraid of her master at this moment: "The slave and maid are going to die, how can I wronged you?" It was the master's mother who asked the slave and maid to do such a thing, and the moon water jade stolen by the slave and maid was not hidden on the beam of the main hall according to your orders?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she was slapped in the face.

"Nonsense! You is slandering me!"

Tang Meihua hurriedly grabbed Zhen Yuanshan's sleeve and swallowed: "I will never take any imperial jewelry from the treasury, and please believe me this time for the sake of our couple's love for many years." ”

"If you are innocent or innocent, you just need to send someone to see if there is a moon water jade on the beam of my mother's house." Zhen Chutian spoke slowly, as if he was looking at a dying person.

Zhen Yue rolled her eyes, and waved her hand at Cui Ping: "You go and see your mother's main hall." ”

"Pei'er and the little six beside her father should also follow, everyone sees is believing, and they will not wronged their mother." Zhen Chutian echoed provocatively.

Want to secretly hide the moon water jade somewhere else? There are no doors!

Hearing this, Tang Meihua's face turned blue and white.

Zhen Yuanshan could see it clearly, and his tone was already slightly cold: "Xiaoliu followed Cuiping to go, I want to see if there is a thief in this house!"

Hearing this, Tang Meihua's mother and daughter both trembled slightly, and they didn't know what to do.

Zhen Chutian straightened his back and stood silently waiting.

However, after a while, Xiao Liu came here with Cuiping, whose face was as white as paper, and held up the sandalwood box with both hands: "My lord, it is indeed as Xue Ying said, this month the water jade was found on the beam of the house. ”

There was a sigh in the courtyard, and everyone didn't expect that this thing was really Tang Meihua's doing.

Before Zhen Yuanshan could speak, Zhen Chutian had already taken two steps forward preemptively: "Mother, I know that you dislike me, if I am not worthy of being a housekeeper, but my father has already handed over the power of housekeeping to me, whether it is good or not, why did you use such a means to deal with me?"

When she said this, she couldn't help but burst into tears: "I am not my mother's biological daughter, and my appearance is not pleasing, so my mother will be so cruel to me." ”

After observing these days, she found that Zhen Yuanshan was the most miserable, so she was coaxed by the White Lotus mother and daughter all these years.

Isn't it just crying? Who wouldn't!

"You.... I have always regarded you as my own daughter, I remembered, this month the water jade was a few days ago I asked Xue Ying to come to the treasury to get it, I heard that put it on the beam of the main hall can be changed feng shui for luck, I don't want to forget these days, I thought it was stolen by thieves. ”

Tang Meihua explained with a dry smile, trying her best to look natural.

After hearing these words, Zhen Chutian almost laughed out of snot bubbles.

Is this really the housewife of the Prime Minister's House? The explanation is full of loopholes, just treat her as a fool, and dare to make an axe in front of Zhen Yuanshan, an old fox.

She forced a smile, opened her big eyes, and pretended to be curious: "Then why did Xue Ying climb over the wall and steal the jewels?" I've been idle for so long, and my mother didn't even remember that you let people take it, where is this bad memory, and it's enough to completely lose memory!"

Tang Meihua hated grinding her teeth, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Zhen Yuanshan frowned impatiently: "Okay, don't say it again!"

"Father, mother must not have deliberately framed my sister." Zhen Yue opened her mouth pitifully, and her eyes slowly moistened.

Zhen Yuanshan didn't look at her again this time, but said in a deep voice: "If you still know that it's embarrassing, go back to the compound and think about it!"

Tang, this time I will not punish you heavily for the sake of the Prime Minister's Mansion, but from today onwards, you don't want to take over the power of the housekeeper again!"

With that, he flicked his sleeves and turned to leave.

Cui Ping immediately reprimanded: "What are you looking at? Scattered, scattered, scattered!"

The people in the courtyard didn't dare to say much, and they all fled and left.

"Zhen Chutian, you are really a good means." Tang Meihua narrowed her eyes, eager to devour the woman in front of her alive.

Zhen Chutian stroked the broken hair on his forehead and smiled brightly: "Thank you mother for your praise, this is all trained by my mother, and I will ask my mother for more advice in the future, I have many means." ”

After saying that, she swaggered away, not giving the mother and daughter a chance to endure coming back.

Zhen Yue watched her disappear at the gate of the courtyard in a daze, and couldn't come back to her senses for a long time: "Mother, this cheap hoof has really changed, how can you deal with it if you are so smart?"

"You're wrong, it's not that she's smart, it's that we're too eager to take away the power of the housekeeper, so we didn't do this seamlessly." Tang Meihua said in a deep voice: "During the days when I was grounded, you should test why she changed so quickly, and see if there is anyone behind her back." ”

"Yes."

Lotus Pavilion.

Zhen Chutian drank tea leisurely, and when she saw Pei'er putting the cloud silk on the table, she smiled: "You also go and get a horse to make a good dress, you are the personal maid of the concubine of the Prime Minister's house, and you must dress more decently than Cuiping." ”

"Thank you, Miss!" Pei'er bowed, and the smile on her face became brighter and brighter: "This time, the young lady can clear her grievances and let the eldest lady be grounded, and the people in the house will begin to look at you with admiration." ”

"What's so impressive?"

Zhen Chutian held his face casually and looked directly at her.

"They said that Miss has changed, and the Prime Minister's Mansion will change in the future."

Pei'er said seriously: "The slave maid also feels that the young lady has become better, and she will not be pressed and bullied by the two people in the compound in the future." ”

"Of course you can't be bullied by them, you wait and see, from now on, only I will bully others." Zhen Chutian patted her shoulder: "Go make the bed." ”

Pell said yes and turned to go to the back room.

The main hall fell silent, Zhen Chutian sat in front of the bronze mirror, picked up a handkerchief and wiped off the fat powder on his face.

But after a while, a beautiful woman who looks forward to life appears in front of her, even if she doesn't make any expressions, she has a feeling of pity.

"This face is perfect."

System: "The main thing is that it will be more beautiful if it is not narcissistic." ”

"Shut up!"

"How do you know I'm here?"

What responded to Zhen Chutian was not the system, but the familiar magnetic voice.

She turned her head sharply, and saw a long figure in the main hall.

Gu Chenghan looked around and sighed: "There has been such a big change in just a few days. ”

Zhen Chutian hurriedly turned his back, grabbed the fat powder and rubbed it on his face: "Does it have anything to do with you if the change is big?" I haven't asked you yet, Gu Daniu, you came here to pay me back, right?"

"You have more ...... in your heart than money

Gu Chenghan took out the silver ticket, and before he could put it down, his face changed slightly: "Why did you paste flour on your face?"

"What flour! Let me tell you, this is the best autumn chestnut rouge, a box of twenty taels of silver!" Zhen Chutian was glad that he didn't notice anything unusual, and immediately reached out and grabbed the silver ticket.

The next moment, she frowned in disgust: "Why is it only a hundred taels?" Is it still fashionable to repay debts in installments these days?"

"I'm poor, I can't afford to pay that much for the time being." Gu Chenghan replied confidently.

Zhen Chutian took a deep breath and chose to accept the silver ticket first.

A hundred taels is also money, and it is better than nothing.

She took it into her arms: "Then when can you give it to me again?"

"That's how you want to see me?" Gu Chenghan stepped forward and looked at her with a smile.

Those fat powders were like imperfect masks, others could not see anything, but he could easily see through the disguise under the masks.

The faintly exposed tender skin is not what an ugly girl should have.

Zhen Chutian pushed him away: "Who wants to see you?" Narcissist, I want silver......"

Before she could finish her sentence, she froze in place.

The system sounded an alarm in the mind: "Contacts are chronically poisonous, please be cautious when approaching the host." ”

"How?" Gu Chenghan was keenly aware that the woman in front of him was looking at him with a strange gaze.
