Chapter 64: You're going to beat her to death
This is her sachet, wasn't it put away by Xiutan, how could it be in her father's hands?
There was a faint guess in her heart, Jiang Changxi looked up at Jiang Wu suddenly, she was eager, and weakly explained to Anhou that she accidentally ate something that caused the rash, and it didn't matter to Jiang Changxi.
There was no flaw in the heart of the loving mother who was eager to defend her, and Jiang Changxi really couldn't tell whether she was sincere or false.
Jiang Changxi held the sachet tightly in his hand, and listened to Anhou appease Jiang Wu and shouted coldly at her: "In vain, your mother feels so sorry for you, and treats you as her own, but you are such a femme fatale, knowing that she will have a rash when she touches the scorpion-like grass, and may die in serious cases, she even stuffed the scorpion-like grass into the sachet." ”
"Scorpion-like grass?" Scorpion-like grass is a relatively unpopular herb, named for its resemblance to a scorpion's tail. Because it is rarely used, Jiang Changxi has hardly heard of scorpion-like grass that can cause red rashes.
But this kind of thing has always been different due to different personal physical qualities - after all, there are still people who have rashes caused by cat and dog hair or fish and shrimp, and Jiang Changxi didn't think much about it.
"But father, I don't know that my mother is intolerant to scorpion-like grass, how can I prescribe the right medicine to harm my mother?" Jiang Changxi defended: "As for this sachet, I don't know why it's here with my mother. When I came to give Ah Yan a bookbag that day, I only sent a bookbag, and nothing else. And I also asked Xiutan to put away the sachet. ”
"Slaves and maids can testify." Xiu Tan broke free to restrain her mother-in-law and maid, broke in, knelt down and said, "Master Hou, the slave Xiu Tan can testify for the girl." That day, when the girl had finished making the sachet, she asked the slave to put it away, and put it in the makeup box in the girl's room and locked it. ”
Jiang Wu was probably in a hurry to clear Jiang Changxi's name, and after listening to Xiutan's testimony, he accidentally choked and coughed twice, and was helped back to lie down by Anhou.
But Jiang Wu was unwilling to lie down, and pulled Sui Anhou's sleeve and persuaded: "Master Hou, I don't believe that Changxi will do anything harmful to me." ”
"Master Hou, Xiu Tan was originally the maid next to the old lady, she would definitely not lie. If Master Hou doesn't believe it anymore, he can still let people go to Yifang Pavilion to search. ”
Sui Anhou had actually decided in his heart that this matter was Jiang Changxi's doing, and now he was distressed and annoyed when he saw his wife still defending her like this.
I feel sorry for Jiang Wu's family to treat people so leniently, but they ended up like this. Annoyed that Jiang Changxi didn't know what to do, and he hurt his mother-in-law, which was simply hateful.
Thinking like this, Sui Anhou looked at Jiang Changxi's eyes with extreme disgust, as if he would look at her more and disgusted his eyes.
Such a look made Jiang Changxi's heart tingle. She thought that after the last time her father smashed her mother's tablet, she had no expectations for her father. But blood is thicker than water, how could she really not have the slightest expectation for her father, and how could her father really hate her so much and not believe her.
Under the pleading of Jiang Wu's family, Sui Anhou finally agreed to let people take Xiutan to Yifang Pavilion to collect evidence, but Jiang Changxi knew that it was useless, the sachet in her hand was indeed made by her, and she would not admit her mistake.
But she couldn't understand that she watched Xiutan put the sachet in the makeup box that day, and the key was always in Xiutan's hand, and she was convinced that Xiutan would not do anything to betray the master. Who was so powerful as to steal the sachet right under her nose.
There are only a few maids who can enter her house, Qingrong Xiutan She is convinced, and the rest of the princess Yuncui are all old people who have served by her mother's side, although they are not very close to her, but Jiang Changxi is also willing to trust her.
So who else? This person should be able to enter her house, and even if he is alone, he will not arouse suspicion. What's more, she even wants to know that Jiang Wu's intolerance to scorpion grass is a private matter that even she doesn't know.
The people sent to Yifang Pavilion with Anhou didn't give Jiang Changxi much time to guess, and soon came back with people.
The chief sui beside Sui Anhou is also a practitioner, and it is easy to carry an obese mother-in-law in one hand and throw people in front of Sui Anhou.
The woman fell to the ground, raised her head in fear, and shook like a sieve when she met Sui An Hou's gaze as if she was about to kill, and kowtowed again and again in panic and begged for mercy: "Hou Ye spare your life, Hou Ye spare your life." The slave and maid are not determined to harm the lady, it is the girl, the girl forced me. ”
Fang just thought about the suspicious people in Yifang Pavilion, and Jiang Changxi was the first to rule out this princess, but he didn't want to slap his face so quickly.
As soon as Mrs. Wang's words came out, Sui Anhou's face seemed to be splashed with ink.
Xiu Tan fell to her knees with a puff, she didn't understand why the sachet in the girl's makeup box was missing, but she could be sure that Mrs. Wang was lying: "Hou Ye Mingjian." Fang Cai went to Yifang Pavilion with the slave maid, and as soon as he went in, he didn't say anything, and the princess pounced on her and said that she was the lady who took the scorpion grass to harm, but now she said that it was instructed by our girl, which is clearly false! ”
Sui Anhou looked at Fang Changsui, and Fang Chang nodded with Anhou, proving that what Xiu Tan said was true.
But Mrs. Wang said: "Miss Xiutan must speak with her conscience. Even though I only breastfed the girl for a few days because of my poor health, I was still the girl's nurse. I worked diligently for the girl, but the girl risked my family's life to threaten me to stuff scorpion grass into my wife's sachet, and I had no choice but to do so. ”
"Master Hou, the lives of the slave maid's whole family are in the hands of the girl, if the slave and maid can't do this for the girl, the girl will sell my little girl to the flowers, the slave and maid really have no choice."
"You're lying! How could a girl do such a thing? Xiutan blushed angrily.
"Miss Xiutan, you are the old lady who came to serve the girl, where would the girl say such a thing in front of you. If it reaches the ears of the old lady, how can it be obtained! Mrs. Wang argued.
What kind of dirty place is blooming with flowers how could Anhou not know it, and he also felt that what Mrs. Wang said was reasonable. If the old lady knew that her granddaughter, who was bent on defending, had such a dirty side in private, the old lady would not be disappointed in her to death.
How many times did the old lady lose peace with his mother and son for Jiang Changxi, which was always in Anhou's mind.
"Please family law!"
Seeing that Sui Anhou believed the words of Mrs. Wang so easily, although he had expected it, Jiang Changxi's heart was still cold.
She looked at the man on the top, even if he was old, he could practice martial arts all the year round, and his body was strong, and he looked darker and stronger than many colleagues of the same age, and he could vaguely see the heroic appearance of his youth.
Such a man is more likely to be admired by a woman than a thin scholar who only knows what it means to be in the study all day.
Her mother admired such a father and gave him the sincerity of her life, but in the end, she only got the hatred and disgust that she couldn't let go of after so many years.
Jiang Changxi didn't know whether to feel sorry for his mother, or to be glad that his mother died early and didn't have to endure his cold treatment.
Anyway, when she looked at such a father, she only felt so cold, and her heart was so cold.
Xiutan panicked when she heard that Sui Anhou was going to ask for family law. She doesn't know martial arts, she doesn't have strong skills, she can't protect the girl.
"Girl, girl, tell Master Hou quickly, it wasn't you who did it, you didn't do such a thing, girl."
Dongyuan is all from Sui'anhou and Jiangwu's family, and when they saw that Sui'anhou was really angry, they didn't dare to delay at all, and they asked the family law to come quickly.
Sui'anhou Mansion is Wuhou Mansion, and the family law has always been simple and rude, it is a long stick with three fingers and a thick body, and when it hits people, even an adult man can't stand the pain, not to mention Jiang Changxi's family of a girl with fine skin and tender meat.
Seeing that Dongyuan, a group of minions who had no eyesight, really invited the family law, and Sui Anhou snatched the family law, it seemed that he was going to do it himself. Xiu Tan was in a hurry, so she couldn't bother kneeling anymore, and stopped directly in front of Jiang Changxi.
"Master Hou, the girl is your own daughter, are you going to beat her to death?"
No matter what Jiang Wu thought in his heart, he had to stop Sui Anhou at this time: "Master Hou, no." ”
For Jiang Wu's plea, Sui Anhou turned a deaf ear, but Xiutan's maid dared to stop in front of him, which made him very displeased: "Pull her away for me!" ”
The minions in the East Garden were naturally obedient to Sui Anhou, not to mention that there was also Fang Changsui, who only listened to Hou Ye's orders, he stepped forward, restrained Xiu Tan, and dragged her away directly.
"Girl, girl." Xiutan had no ability to resist at all, and shouted to Jiang Changxi sadly, expecting her to run fast, at least to open the Hou Ye's stick more.
But Jiang Changxi didn't, she looked at Sui Anhou's hideous face because of anger for a moment, and she didn't even look at the eyes that waved a stick at her, calm and waveless like stagnant water, and actually looked at Sui Anhou's sorrow, just like the dead eyes of the woman under the dim light.
With Anhou's anger, the movements in his hands slowed down unconsciously, but slowly, a violent force suddenly struck, and he kicked on the long stick without hesitation.
Sui An Hou is a person who practices martial arts, and the strength in his hands is stronger than that of ordinary men, but he was also shocked by this shock, and he almost couldn't catch the long stick.
Seeing Jiang Changxi safe and sound and Qingrong who was protecting her like frost in front of her, Xiutan, who was extremely frightened, finally fell to the ground, crying and laughing: "Girl." ”
"Bold minion, you dare to take care of the affairs of the master's family!" Sui Anhou is disgusted with the people around Jiang Changxi, and his temper is naturally not much better.
The more angry Qingrong became, the more silent he became, standing in front of Jiang Changxi with a cold face, staring at Sui Anhou's eyes as if he was looking at a dead man.
It was an undisguised murderous intent, which made Sui Anhou and Fang Changsui, who was protecting him, unconsciously put up their guards.
Behind Qingrong, Jiang Changxi finally withdrew his gaze from Sui Anhou's body, his previously clear eyes were covered with gray color, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and he trembled to hide the contaminated water vapor under his lowered eyebrows. When she raised her eyes again, she was still the same Jiang Changxi who always had a chuckle on the corner of her mouth.
It's just that this laughter makes people feel uneasy.
"Even if you are a murderer, there should be physical evidence when the verdict is executed. Does the father now want to judge his daughter's sin with the words of the prince? ”
