Chapter 126: She's still surnamed Xiao

Xiao Yijing shouted: "If it was really Cousin Yao who asked you to put this bracelet into the jewelry box of the third sister, and you did put it in, then how could it appear on your body, this really doesn't make sense, it can be seen that you must be lying!" โ€

Zhang Jiayao nodded: "That's right!" It doesn't make sense. Grandmother! She ran to Mrs. Zou's side: "Don't listen to this's words, her granddaughter has been wronged." Maybe she stole the bracelet, and then she was afraid of being found out, so she thought of asking the third sister to hold it for her! โ€

"You! Slaves don't! What the slave just said is true, and please ask the old lady to see it! Midori exclaimed.

Xiao Yiran said: "If Lu Qiao really wants to steal the bracelet and blame me, then you should take out the things while you are looking for them in the house." Why do you have to find the jewelry box, and you still see that there is already a bracelet in the jewelry box, and you still have to bring it to everyone? Didn't she know that once the source of the bracelet was revealed, her plan to marry would fall short? โ€

"You're using strong words!" Zhang Jiayao said hurriedly, she didn't expect that the loophole that she had finally found would be overturned by Xiao Yiran's words. She sneered and said, "It seems that Cousin Ran has completely believed the words of that maid, and I am sure that I want to harm you today." โ€

"I just believe the facts." Xiao Yiran said lightly.

The situation was stuck here all of a sudden, and everyone looked at Mrs. Zou, and what the result was now depends on her words.

Old Lady Zou is also irritable now, her brows have not been stretched since she entered this Tingyu Pavilion, looking at these eyes in the room, she pondered for a long time with a gloomy face, and finally spoke: "Today's matter is indeed full of doubts. โ€

Hearing this, Xiao Shufen's mother and daughter couldn't help but be happy, it seemed that this old lady Zou was still biased towards them, and she didn't listen to the words of the maid and Xiao Yiran.

But the two of them didn't have time to be happy for too long, and then Mrs. Zou changed her words and said: "But it is all caused by Miss Table, from today onwards, Miss Cousin will be locked up and will not be allowed to come out within three days!" As for this maid......" She glanced at the green warp on the ground and said, "Frame Miss, get out of the house immediately!" โ€

"Old lady! The slave didn't frame the young lady, the slave was wronged! Midori exclaimed.

Xiao Shufen's mother and daughter also said anxiously: "Mother, since it's all this maid's fault, then you don't have to punish Yao'er, right?" โ€

"Yes, grandmother, Yao'er don't be confined." Zhang Jiayao prayed.

Old Mrs. Zou glanced at them lightly: "I have made up my mind and will not change." With that, she turned and left.

Several subordinates hurriedly pulled Lu Qiao, ignored her loud shouting of grievances, and took her out. When the others saw that the matter was almost settled, they all dispersed quickly.

After they all left, Xianglan immediately instructed the little maids to clean the house and clean up the debris.

"Miss, why don't you go out and sit down first, I'm afraid it will be better here for a while." Xianglan persuaded.

Grandma Sun took the broom and said, "Yes, miss, you go out first, and this place will be handed over to the old slave." โ€

Xiao Yiran didn't shirk it, and let Xianglan move a stool for her and sit in the gazebo.

"Miss, the slave maid, the slave maid has something unclear, I don't know whether to ask or not." Xianglan hesitated as she stood beside her.

Xiao Yiran smiled slightly: "You want to ask me why a coral bracelet fell out of Lu Qiao's body, right?" โ€

"Miss guessed right." Xianglan scratched her head suspiciously, "Isn't that bracelet on Miss's body?" When did you get to Midori? โ€

Xiao Yiran said: "I took advantage of the chaos to put it on her." โ€

"I see." Pandan suddenly.

Seeing this, Xiao Yiran was interested: "This matter Lu Qiao is just following orders, I let her be kicked out of the house directly, don't you think I did too much?" โ€

"Not really!" Xianglan shook her head again and again, "Although Miss Biao is the mastermind in this matter, Lu Qiao is also an accomplice and should also be punished!" It's just a pity that the old lady still didn't believe Lu Qiao's words in the end, thinking that she stole the coral bracelet, and only punished Miss Biao for three days, which was too light. She looked indignant, "The most unfortunate thing is that we listen to the Yuge, and a lot of things have been smashed!" โ€

Xiao Yiran hooked his lips and smiled: "Do you really think that the old lady doesn't know anything?" โ€

Xianglan was taken aback: "What does Miss mean?" โ€

"If the old lady really fully believes in Zhang Jiayao, they won't lock her up, saying that the matter started because of her is just an excuse for the mud."

"That old lady actually believes in green warping?"

Xiao Yiran shook his head: "Not necessarily." There are some inexplicable words on both of us, so the old lady can only be regarded as half-convinced. But what kind of character her granddaughter is, she must know it clearly, and she must be beginning to doubt her in her heart now. That's what I wanted! โ€

After all, Xiao Shufen's mother and daughter have been favored by Mrs. Zou for many years, and it is impossible to make them fall out of favor all at once, but they have been living in the Zhongyong Marquis Mansion all this time, and if they keep jumping like this, it will really be a headache, and maybe it will hurt her.

So today, she just wants Mrs. Zou to have a grudge against them in her heart, and to warn them, so that they don't dare to come to her for trouble easily. Although she is not as good as the mother and daughter in the heart of Mrs. Zou, but after all, she is Miss Houfu, her own granddaughter, if she blindly bullies this granddaughter to the head, it will be a bit detrimental to the face of the Hou Mansion. After all, Zhang Jiayao is Miss Zhang, not Miss Zhongyong Houfu!

"Grandmother, just spare Yao'er, Yao'er really don't want to be confined, I'll die of boredom." Along the way, Zhang Jiayao followed behind Mrs. Zou to plead and be coquettish.

Looking at the expressionless face of Mrs. Zou in front of her, she continued to say unrelentingly: "Grandmother, I blame that today, and I don't know anything!" Why do I want to be confined, Yao'er is not convinced. โ€

After being talked about all the way like this, Mrs. Zou finally couldn't bear to stop, she pulled her face and quietly looked at Zhang Jiayao for a while, until her scalp was a little numb before she spoke: "You really don't know anything about today's events?" โ€

Zhang Jiayao's smile froze: "Grandmother, what do you mean by this?" Yao'er, Yao'er really doesn't know anything! โ€

Xiao Shufang also said: "Mother, don't you still believe Yao'er? It's all that's fault, and it has nothing to do with our Yao'er. โ€

Old Madam Zou snorted coldly: "You know in your own hearts what this matter is, since I just said so, it means that I will no longer pursue it." Besides, Yao'er, you rushed to Tingyu Pavilion with a group of subordinates to search the house, completely ignoring your cousin's face, what do you have to say about this? โ€

"Yao'er, Yao'er......" Zhang Jiayao was speechless.

Old Mrs. Zou glanced at her lightly, then looked at Xiao Shufen again, and said word by word: "Don't forget, the girl's surname is Xiao!" After speaking, she didn't look at the mother and daughter again, and she didn't take her subordinates away, leaving only Xiao Shufen's mother and daughter, whose faces suddenly turned a little ugly when she heard her words.

"Mother, mother, do you say that your grandmother knows something? Does she not believe us? Zhang Jiayao said with a panicked face.

Xiao Shufen lowered her head and asked, "You tell me the truth, is what the said just now true?" โ€

Under her stern gaze, Zhang Jiayao couldn't help but hang her head, and hesitated for a while before admitting: "Yes, I asked her to do this." โ€

"You kid!" Xiao Shufen said hurriedly.

"Mother, I just want to teach that cheap girl a lesson. If it weren't for her, Brother Zijun wouldn't have ......" At the mention of this, her eyes turned red all of a sudden.

She knew since she was a child that Xiao Shufen intended to marry herself to Xiao Zijun, and neither Mrs. Zou nor Bai Huaping showed any disapproval of this marriage, so she had long regarded Xiao Zijun as her future husband, and now that he is dead, of course she will not let go of the murderer who killed her so easily.

"Then you should also discuss it with your mother!"

"I thought this matter was foolproof, so I didn't tell my mother first, but who would have thought ......" Thinking of Mrs. Zou's cold face, Zhang Jiayao hurriedly raised her head: "Mother, you said, does what grandmother said just now means that she knows everything, she knows that this matter is actually intentional on my part, and knows that we are lying to her?" โ€

Recalling Mrs. Zou's words just now, Xiao Shufen was also a little uncertain, but she still gritted her teeth and comforted: "It's okay, don't worry, your grandmother has always loved you, and it will be fine." You see, whether she knows it or not, she just locked you up for three days, which means that she is still on our side. โ€

"Really? That's good, that's good. Zhang Jiayao relaxed slightly, but then she frowned and said: "But it's three days of confinement, then I won't be able to come out to play for three days, I don't want to." โ€

Xiao Shufen gently persuaded: "Yao'er, you should be patient for a while first, and then you should be coaxing your grandmother." Tomorrow, your grandmother's anger may be gone, and your mother will help you plead for mercy. โ€

"Okay then." Zhang Jiayao finally reluctantly agreed.
