Chapter 233: Substitute for the Dead Ghost
Rong Ruofeng raised his head and walked into the hall, saluted Master Jin, and said firmly: "Master, I put this fire together!" As soon as Rong Ruofeng said this, the entire hall fell silent. Jin Xianyu and Liu Qingxiang raised their heads at the same time, looking at Rong Ruofeng in shock. And a subtle sneer flashed on Wei Ru's face.
Isn't this Weiru's dowry maid, why did she set the fire? If you set it on fire, why admit it? With these doubts, Master Jin spoke: "Tell me why you set the fire." ”
Liu Qingxiang was in a hurry. What a stupid girl, how can she rush up on everything. Is arson a joke? Even if you don't admit it, it's just that you're here to investigate the cause of the fire, and you can find a substitute for the dead casually!
Rong Ruofeng looked at Master Jin firmly: "Back to Master, the slave didn't mean to set fire." Tonight I stewed a large bone broth for the eldest young master and the young lady, because this soup took a long time to boil, and I was the last to leave the kitchen. As I left, I remembered that the fire had been fired, perhaps because there were flames wafting out of it and starting a fire. The slave and maid did not deliberately set the fire, I hope the master will be aware of it. ”
Without waiting for Master Jin to speak, Jin Xianyu walked to the hall and hurriedly spoke: "Yes, Amma." This fire was an accident, and it was definitely not caused by Rong Ruofeng on purpose. ”
Everyone was surprised when they saw Jin Xianyu's anxious plea. It's unreasonable for a dignified young master to intercede for a little girl! Could it be that there is some ulterior secret between the two?
Master Jin looked at the anxious Jin Xianyu and looked at the anxious Jin Xianyu with a surprised face, and he was speechless for a while.
Wei Ru, who was standing on the side of the hall, saw Jin Xianyu stepping forward to intercede with a maid regardless of her identity, and she hated so much that she wanted to tear Rong Ruofeng. But reason told her to stay calm at this time.
Wei Ru suppressed the anger in her heart, and also walked to Rong Ruofeng's side and gave Master Jin a salute: "Ama, Rong Ruofeng must not have done it on purpose, Xianyu has always known that I have a deep relationship with Rong Ruofeng, and I am also afraid that I will be sad if you punish Rong Ruofeng, so I ask you, please also understand Xianyu's hard work." Wei Ru's short words resolved Jin Xianyu's abrupt embarrassment.
Jin Xianyu looked at Wei Ru with a white face, really grateful for her intelligence to resolve her embarrassment.
At this time, Liu Qingxiang couldn't help but walk to the hall: "Master, you said that this matter will be handed over to the villain to find out the cause and effect, and I hope you will give me a few days to let me prove why this fire started." Just now Rong Ruofeng also said that he obviously killed the fire, maybe there is another secret in this matter, it is better to let the villain find out first, and then the master will also leave a good name! "Rong Ruofeng, I will never let you get hurt, Liu Qingxiang secretly swore in his heart.
Master Jin didn't know why so many people interceded for a little girl, but everyone spoke, and he didn't want to save their face too much, so he had to speak: "Okay, let's press this maid to the firewood room for the time being, and wait until the cause of the fire is found out to be decided." ”
After saying that, the two little guys walked in and set up Rong Ruofeng and walked out of the door.
Liu Qingxiang looked at Rong Ruofeng, who was escorted away, and his heart was full of hatred.
Master Jin looked at it and looked at it was almost dawn, and waved his hand at everyone: "Let's all go down and rest, it's been a night." After that, he got up and left, and when he got old, his physical strength was not good.
Tonight, it can't be said that it is tonight, the sky has turned white. What is going to happen at the beginning of today?
Rong Ruofeng was dragged to the firewood room by the two subordinates, and as soon as he pushed the firewood room, a musty smell came to his face. pushed Rong Ruofeng into the firewood room, and Rong Ruofeng stumbled to the ground, and the white skirt was stained with mud.
"It's so bold that you dared to burn down the kitchen, causing us not to sleep all night, and putting out the fire is sore." A guy stood at the door and complained.
"That's it, looking at a very weak little girl doing this kind of thing!" The other guy complained as he locked the door.
Rong Ruofeng heard it clearly in the firewood room, and curled up in a corner to blame himself even more. They all blame themselves for being careless, causing a fire and burning the kitchen. Fortunately, the fire didn't burn anyone, or he wouldn't have forgiven himself in this life. Thinking of these tears, fluttering down on the dirty floor, forming small mud flowers.
"Who made you talk nonsense! It's too quiet, isn't it? Liu Qingxiang, who was in a hurry from afar, heard the conversation between the two little guys clearly, and Liu Qingxiang, who was already distressed, suddenly became angry. Loudly yelled at the two little guys.
The two little guys saw that it was Director Liu who came over, and hurriedly answered: "Yes, Director, we were wrong." The two little guys bowed their heads and replied respectfully. Liu Qingxiang is now a celebrity in front of Master Jin, and it is very likely that he will be the future housekeeper, and he can't afford to offend.
Liu Qingxiang ignored the two, and still said loudly angrily: "Open the door, I'm going to go in and say a few words, you two will come back after a while." ”
"Yes." A guy hurriedly took out the key, opened the lock quickly, and the two hurriedly retreated, for fear of Liu Qingxiang, who was angry.
Rong Ruofeng heard it clearly, and when he heard the sound of the door opening, he hurriedly wiped the tears that were still hanging on his face. How could this small action escape Liu Qingxiang's eyes.
Liu Qingxiang squatted in front of Rong Ruofeng distressedly, stretched out his hand and gently wiped away the remaining tears on Rong Ruofeng's face: "Silly girl, why are you so stupid to admit it?" ”
Rong Ruofeng squeezed out a smile: "It was caused by me accidentally, and I should take responsibility for the mistakes I made." And the lord asked you to investigate this matter thoroughly, if you shield me, you will be punished, and I can't implicate you. ”
This silly girl is always so kind, always thinking about others. Silly girl, how can you bother me, I have 10,000 ways to blame others! Liu Qingxiang didn't dare to say these words, he was afraid that his evil self would frighten Rong Ruofeng. One day, when I avenge this great revenge, I will become as kind as you for you, and only then can I be worthy of you.
"Silly girl, you will suffer if you are so kind. Tell me about the cause of the fire, and I will find a way to find out the cause of the fire, maybe the fire is not because of you. Liu Qingxiang asked Rong Ruofeng, hoping to get some new clues that could help Rong Ruofeng clear his name.
Rong Ruofeng and Liu Qingxiang described all the events of that day in detail: "I boiled the soup until late, there was no one in the kitchen at that time, and I was the last to leave." Just as everyone in the kitchen was packing up and leaving, a kind cook came to remind me that I must cover the fire. So I took it to heart, and I did cover the fire with ashes. But maybe there's a spark drifting away. I was the last one to leave that day, and the most intense fire was on my stove, which I caused eighty percent of the fire. After Rong Ruofeng finished speaking, he lowered his head with some self-reproach.
