Chapter 92: Proving Innocence with Worms
The girls and the ladies were all called into the hall and stood in two rows.
Chu Moxing and Chu Shuyan rushed over when they heard the news, and they also acted as bystanders.
In the process of interrogation, except for Hongxiao and Duobao, the other subordinates were all convinced, whether it was Chu Yueli who pushed down Aunt Zhao and fell on her stomach, or whether she was holding a porcelain piece to scratch the face of the fourth young lady Chu Xianglin, but accidentally scratched the fourth young lady's hand.
Duobao immediately argued: "You are lying! Obviously, it was the eldest lady who pushed Aunt Zhao, and it was the eldest lady who fell on her aunt's stomach, which caused her aunt to have a miscarriage! Miss Four's Injuries...... That hurts...... The injured slave didn't know how it came about, but it must not have been the third lady's hand! ”
Chu Yueli said secretly: Duobao, you are blindly convinced. Still, Miss I like it.
Mrs. Chu said angrily: "You are a cheap maid, and you dare to bite the master?!" Come on, give me twenty slaps! ”
When a mother-in-law stepped forward, she was going to fight Duobao.
Chu Yueli stood up, stood in front of Duobao, and said, "Since you have called someone to ask, you have to ask clearly." Duobao identified the eldest lady, which is to bite and bite. Those minions identified me, the third lady, isn't it a bite? Mother, you are the most fair person, it is better to be a little restless, and when you are sure who is the real climber, it is not too late to do it. ”
When Chu Yueli said this, she was neither humble nor arrogant, and she said slowly, but she was very overwhelmed.
Mrs. Chu frowned and said, "It's not your turn to call the shots yet!" ”
Chu Yueli looked at Master Chu and said, "My father is an official in the court, he is the most diligent and loves the people, and his subordinates have never had an unjust case, do you want to wronged your own daughter?" ”
Old Master Chu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Okay." Let's hear you out again. If you can't prove your innocence, you girl, you will be beaten and sold! ”
Chu Yueli responded: "Okay, just listen to my father." After a slight pause, "If it is proved that the daughter is innocent, what will the father say?" ”
Master Chu groaned: "If you are really innocent......" His gaze swept over Chu Zhenzhu, Aunt Zhao and the others, obviously entangled.
Chu Yueli raised her hand and pointed at those subordinates who framed her, frightening those people one by one, for fear that Chu Yueli would say cruel things. Chu Yueli smiled and said, "What are you afraid of?" If you are telling the truth, why do you have to dodge so much? Without waiting for anyone to refute, she turned her finger and stroked towards Aunt Zhao, "Two days ago, Aunt Zhao covered her stomach and said that if I didn't give her a candied fruit shop, the brother in her stomach would make a fuss. ”
Aunt Zhao immediately denied: "I didn't!" ”
Chu Yueli continued: "If you prove my innocence today, you not only have to return the candied fruit shop to me, but also have to add another shop to compensate me." Otherwise, I am wronged. ”
Aunt Zhao said angrily: "Dream on you!" ”
Chu Yueli looked at Master Chu and said softly, "Father, you have to be fair." ”
Master Chu was silent, but he finally nodded under Chu Yueli's stubbornness.
Chu Yueli continued to look at Chu Zhenzhu and said, "It's a good thing for the eldest sister to go back home, but she was splashed with rotten apricots and insects by Aunt Zhao, and in a hurry, it is normal to kick Aunt Zhao." ”
Chu Zhenzhu said lightly: "The third sister should keep some virtue, don't frame people with empty mouths and white teeth." ”
Mrs. Chu said, "I'm also tired, so let's solve this matter quickly." Looking at the red night, "Tell me, what happened?" The light of his eyes was suppressed, with an inconspicuous threat intent. Mrs. Chu didn't believe it, she held the deed of sale of Hongxiao, and she dared to go against herself.
Hongxiao was named, and everyone's eyes were focused on her.
Chu Yueli frowned and said: "Hongxiao has never had anyone in her eyes, and she is not of the same heart as me, Madame asked her, it is better not to ask." ”
Mrs. Chu retorted: "It's just a girl, don't dare to tell lies." What does it matter if you are single-minded or not? ”
Chu Yueli stopped talking.
Red Night twisted her fingers so much that she was about to break in the limelight.
Chu Zhenzhu opened his mouth and said: "Hongxiao, you are an understanding person, just say it frankly." ”
Hongxiao took a deep breath and said, "Back to the masters, the slave did see that it was the eldest lady who pushed Aunt Zhao, and it was also the eldest lady who fell on Aunt Zhao's stomach. ”
Chu Zhenzhu was furious, stood up, slapped him in the mouth, and scolded: "Slut! ”
Hongxiao was frightened, and knelt on the ground with a pop, hugged Chu Zhenshu's thigh and begged, "Miss, spare your life...... The eldest lady is most afraid of insects, and it is Aunt Zhao who deliberately uses insects to scare the eldest lady, so that the eldest lady will push her away, and the eldest lady is also innocent......"
As soon as Aunt Zhao heard this, she immediately stopped doing it, and immediately rushed over to fight the red night, shouting: "You slut!" Slut! My brother is gone, and you can't get out of it! ”
Hongxiao suddenly pointed to Chu Zhenzhu's skirt and shouted, "Ah! Bugger! ”
Chu Zhenzhu stiffened, and slowly looked down, but when she saw that there were five or six soft green insects lying on her skirt, she screamed in fright, and directly pushed away Aunt Zhao, who was closest to her. Subconsciously, she thought that these bugs were thrown by Aunt Zhao.
Chu Zhenzhu kicked and kicked and jumped and screamed, like a mad demon.
The nurse and the mother-in-law hurriedly pounced, and while swatting off the insects, they coaxed and said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid......"
Chu Zhenzhu was frightened twice, both of which were related to Aunt Zhao, and her intuition was that Aunt Zhao was retaliating for her for taking away the piece of meat in her stomach, so when she recovered a little bit of clarity, she kicked at Aunt Zhao, and roared: "You slut, you want to harm me!" Hit her! Hit me hard! ”
Aunt Zhao originally hated Chu Zhenzhu for causing her brother to be gone, and she forbeared it many times just to hope that life would be better in the future, but she didn't want to be treated like this, so she immediately became angry and angry, tore up with Chu Zhenzhu, and said hatefully: "You return my brother!" Give back my brother! ”
Chu Xianglin saw that things were not good, and wanted to pull Aunt Zhao and remind her not to offend Mrs. Chu, but she was knocked down by Chu Zhenzhu's nurse and fell to the ground. Her hand was slightly injured, and the one on her ass was really fatal. With such a fall, blood flowed in an instant.
It's a mess.
Hongxiao stepped back and quietly sighed. She secretly looked at Chu Yueli, remembering that before Rong Hui arrived at the Wisteria Pavilion, Chu Yueli asked her if she was afraid of insects. She replied that she was afraid. Chu Yueli asked her again, is she afraid of insects or afraid of being taken back to the house by the eldest lady, and then beaten to death as a slut? It dawned on her that the bugs weren't so scary. So, when she tied a rope around her sleeve, she didn't panic so much. When Chu Yueli asked Duobao to stuff worms into her cuffs, even if she was half scared to death, she still couldn't help but scream. Just now, it wasn't her hands that she kept pinching, but her cuffs. She wanted to pinch the cuffs, to arouse the anger of the eldest lady, and to shake the insects to the eldest lady's skirt silently when Aunt Zhao pounced on her and fought. It was hard, but she did it.
Chu Yueli gave Hongxiao a hooked corner of her lips.
Hongxiao suddenly felt proud!
