The county lord of Jinghua sneered: "Miss Cui, did you hear what my mother said?" Why do you spend all day staring at other people's mansions? I'm going to Master Cui's house another day and ask Mrs. Cui how she taught her daughter! ”

"There is no need to change the day, today I can tell the county lord that my daughter, who is familiar with the precepts and is cautious, I will teach her knowledge, but I will not let you be humiliated!" Mrs. Cui slammed the curtain in.

Cui Zisu had a look of death, and after seeing Mrs. Cui who suddenly appeared, she seemed to grasp the last straw, and her eyes suddenly burst into a strong look.

Tears welled up in Cui Zisu's eyes, and she whispered, "Mother." ”

"My son, I've hurt you!" Mrs. Cui half-covered her face with a handkerchief and threw herself at Cui Zisu on the bed.

"Mother......" The mother and daughter hugged their heads and cried.

Xie Yanhe took a deep breath, turned his head to look at the ladies in the room, and said softly: "The cold house is not well entertained, and it has caused trouble for the sisters." You may wish to move and take a break in the guest house first. Yonghe thanked me here. ”

Xie Yanhe bowed to the ladies.

"The county lord of Yonghe is polite, I will retire." The host's family spoke, and even if the ladies were curious, they were embarrassed to stay here and continue to watch the excitement. After everyone saluted, they came out.

For a while, only Xie Yan and the owner were left in the room, Princess Ying, Princess Chengjun, County Lord Hejing, County Lord Jinghua, and Du Minyi and others.

Xie Yanhe looked at the mother and daughter who were hugging and crying on the bed, bowed to Mrs. Cui, and said softly: "Mrs. Cui, Miss Cui had an accident in my house today, and I can't escape the blame." Just ......"

"Lord Yonghe, my Zisu said that he wanted to report to the official, dare to ask where Jing Zhaoyin is?" Mrs. Cui's eyes were red from crying, and she looked at Xie Yanhe's gaze, as if she wanted to tear her apart.

"Mrs. Cui, just based on Miss Cui's words, I want to send the ladies present to the Jingzhao Yamen, so should I and the two sisters of the Shen family sue Miss Cui for slander?"

Xie Yanhe raised his eyebrows, and his soft voice was hidden in the needle.

Mrs. Cui's pupils shrank, she bit her mandibles tightly, and sneered at Xie Yanhe: "My daughter fell into the water in your mansion, shouldn't the county lord of Yonghe give me an explanation?" ”

"Don't worry, Mrs. Cui, of course I will give it to you."

Xie Yanhe said lightly.

"Xiaocang Garden has the most water features, and there are three lakes alone. In every lake, I have arranged a mother-in-law who knows how to water, just to prevent accidents. Since Miss Cui happened in Crescent Lake, the person on duty should be Mama Fan. ”

Xie Yanhe turned his head and ordered his maid.

She said sharply: "Come on, go and call Mama Fan, my Xie Mansion will never condone the dereliction of duty minions!" ”

As soon as Xie Yanhe's words came out, Du Minyi, Liu Rongjia, Sun Youyun, including Cui Zisu, everyone's faces flashed with a hint of emptiness.

Although Xie Yanhe caught the expressions of several people, she didn't see it, and sat on the embroidery stool next to her, silent.

After a while, a servant woman with a round bun, a ginkgo leaf hairpin, and an indigo dress walked into the inner room.

Seeing Xie Yanhe, Mama Fan knelt on the ground: "The slave is guilty." ”

"Oh?" Xie Yanhe's eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a shallow voice, "Where is the sin?" ”

Xie Yanhe's voice is clear and sweet, neither sharp nor harsh, but like a spring breeze in February, it seems to be gentle and gentle, but there is an inexplicable chill at the end of the tail.

Du Minyi's body trembled inexplicably. She couldn't hold it anymore, and bent her knees to Xie Yanhe to plead guilty: "Yonghe County Lord, at that time, Mama Fan proposed to take care of us on the boat, but a few of us didn't agree. Later, Mama Fan wanted to arrange for the servant woman to follow her on the boat behind, but we didn't agree......"

Hearing this, Xie Yanhe showed surprise: "Is there still such an inside story?" ”

Mama Fan kowtowed heavily to Xie Yanhe, and said respectfully: "It's the slave maid who is incompetent, who didn't dispel the thoughts of several young ladies, and didn't save Miss Cui ashore in time, and asked the county lord to surrender." ”

"Go get twenty boards." Xie Yanhe said in a flat tone.

Sun Youyun didn't expect that the county lord of Yonghe would punish Mama Fan so heavily, and she couldn't help biting her lip.

Sun Youyun bowed to Xie Yanhe, and said with some shame: "Yonghe County Lord, I was the first to propose it if I didn't let Mama Fan and others follow; Later, Sister Cui fell into the water, and the boat was almost on the other side, and Mama Fan was also out of reach. Mama Fan has also been affected by me, please don't blame her. ”

Xie Yanhe did not agree to Sun Youyun's plea, she said lightly: "Sister Sun, Mama Fan can report this matter to me at that time, and I will cut it." It was because Mama Fan didn't report it that there was such a big mess in the follow-up. There are no rules. Mama Fan was derelict in her duties first, and she must not be punished. ”

Xie Yanhe looked at Mama Fan, and his tone was extremely light: "You are also an old man in the house, and you should know the rules of the house." I'll fine you twenty boards, can you be convinced? ”

Mama Fan said calmly: "Back to the county master, the slave and maid are convinced. ”

Xie Yanhe raised his delicate chin slightly: "Since you are guilty, you will go down to receive the punishment." ”

Mama Fan kowtowed and respectfully exited the house.

There was not the slightest hint of anger on her calm face, and she retreated silently as she had come. It can be seen that the rules of Xie Mansion are strict.

The people present, including the two princesses, all chuckled in their hearts.

A sixteen-year-old girl has such a means of domination, even the mothers of some families who have been in charge for more than ten or twenty years, and they may not be able to defeat her.

Xie Yan and Tie Mian were selfless, and after punishing the subordinates in the Hou Mansion, Du Minyi and Liu Rongjia glanced at each other, and the expressions on each other's faces were a little ugly.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that it was a few of them who were willful first, so there was such a thing as Cui Zisu falling into the water.

Now Cui Zisu is aggressive, framing the county lord of Yonghe and the Shen family sisters who later boarded the boat as the masterminds behind pushing her into the water.

In order to appease Cui Zisu's emotions, the county lord of Yonghe first punished the innocent subordinates in his house regardless of his previous suspicions.

If this matter spreads, will the world also regard themselves as Cui Zisu and others.

At this moment, Du Minyi and the others all had similar thoughts in their hearts.

Sun Youyun endured and endured, but she never hid the resentment in her heart, she said angrily to Cui Zisu: "Sister Cui was also present at that time. I proposed not to let the servant woman follow, and Sister Cui agreed. Now I suspect that we pushed you into the water, so unreasonable! If you want me to say, don't blame this or that, it's your own bad life, who is to blame for today's catastrophe? ”

As one of the suspects who had been suspected by Cui Zisu, Liu Rongjia high-fived and said crisply: "Sister Sun's words are exactly what I want to say." There are six people on the boat, except for you, why are we all okay. ”

Liu Rongjia hooked his lips and said meaningfully: "Maybe it's because you always chew your tongue and do too much bad things on weekdays, so you should have this report!" ”

Cui Zisu's eyes were red, she squeezed her fist hard, and just wanted to speak, but was patted on the back of her hand by Mrs. Cui.

I saw Mrs. Cui press the corner of her red eyes with a handkerchief, and said in a mocking tone: "Miss Sun and Miss Liu have such sharp tongues!" In front of my mother-in-law, I dare to curse my daughter with red lips and white teeth, are the two of you bullying me Cui family is Bo Zuo Hanmen, and my family's old man is low? ”

"Mrs. Cui is really ridiculous, when did Sister Liu and I use power to overwhelm people?" Sun Youyun was not afraid of Mrs. Cui's majesty, she directly choked back: "On the contrary, it is your good daughter, who does not care about the sisterhood with us in the past, relying on the Hui nobles and the two princesses in the palace, and wants to send all of us innocent people to the prison of the Criminal Department." ”

With Sun Youyun's reminder, Mrs. Cui remembered that since she entered the house, she had not found any trace of Princess Yichang and Princess Duanmin, and she couldn't help asking, "Where are the two princesses?" Their aunt almost lost her life, and the two princesses were so indifferent! ”

"Mrs. Cui is cautious!" Princess Ying put down the tea cup in her hand, and her face was extremely cold: "The Hui nobles in the palace are unwell, and the two princesses are pure filial piety, so they immediately rushed back to the palace to serve the sick." How about the princesses, it's not Mrs. Cui's turn to instruct! ”

Princess Chengjun snorted lightly: "Miss Cui stared at Jinghua's mansion, it turned out to be a family history. ”

The two princesses spoke, and although Mrs. Cui looked unfair, she didn't dare to refute.

Liu Rongjia raised her eyebrows, as if she had suddenly discovered something very interesting, she curled the corners of her lips and said with a playful expression: "Mrs. Cui, you shouldn't know yet, right?" Ling Yan was rescued ashore by the fifth son of the Ministry of Works' squire. ”

"The fifth son of the Ministry of Works' family?" Mrs. Cui suddenly raised her voice, she stood up directly from the edge of the bed, and her voice was sharp: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Liu Rongjia sneered: "Mrs. Cui doesn't understand? ”

Mrs. Cui instantly looked at her pale daughter on the bed, and her eyes were as if she was about to swallow Cui Zisu: "What she said is true?" ”

"Mother......" Cui Zisu covered her mouth and cried "woo".

"Evil Barrier!" Mrs. Cui angrily went to beat Cui Zisu, crying and scolding: "Why don't you drown in the water, it's a hundred?!" My hard work has been in vain! It's been in vain......"

Mrs. Cui's expression was like a mournful examination, and the fist that fell on Cui Zisu's body was like raindrops, and she didn't spare her hand at all.

Liu Rongjia's eyes had a hint of incomprehension.

In the past, they often played together, so Liu Rongjia knew how much Mrs. Cui loved Cui Zisu, the little daughter.

Liu Rongjia told Mrs. Cui that it was the concubine of the Zhang family who rescued Cui Zisu ashore, just to combat Mrs. Cui's arrogance and make her uncomfortable.

Why did Mrs. Cui suddenly regard her most beloved daughter as an enemy, and she wanted to put Cui Zisu to death?!
