Previous Chapter

When Cuihuan was pushed in front of Mrs. Yuan's eyes, Xiao Qingshi had already drunk the second cup of tea.

The silence in the room can be heard clearly, no one speaks, and even a little heavier breathing will seem abrupt.

Mrs. Yuan clenched her fists, suppressing the anger in her heart, controlling herself not to lose her dignity, Cuihuan was trembling on her knees, and fear and panic were vividly reflected in her body.

Xiao Qingshi was a little bored, sometimes the starry eyes slightly drooped and played with the jade pendant on his waist, the sun poured on his face through his long eyelashes, lining him more and more like jade, and after a few moments, he raised his eyes slightly and looked out the window, and the starry eyes turned into a pearl with a few inches of warm sun, illuminating the flowers and trees outside the house.

This child is less than ten years old, but he is already so handsome, if he is older, I am afraid it will be a disaster.

"Brother Shi."

Mrs. Yuan called him gently, his eyes swayed slightly, he turned his head, and there was only indifference on his carved face, "Mother, what do you command?" ”

"Do you want to intercede for her?" Mrs. Yuan's brows moved slightly, after all, she took care of her son's mood.

Xiao Qingshi's face was light, and his eyes were peaceful, "It's just a maid, if you displease your mother, just send it away." ”

Xiao Qingshi did not mention the word pleading in this remark, which shows his lack of affection.

Cuihuan's body trembled violently when he heard this, raised his eyes and choked up: "Big lady, Brother Shi, did the slave and maid do something wrong to send the slave maid?" ”

"You still have the face to ask?" Mrs. Yuan frowned, her eyes became sharp, and she had a cannibalistic posture.

Cuihuan has been nurtured by Xiao Qingshi since he was a child, and his face is the most clever, seeing that Yuan's family is like this, his heart immediately understood, and he pleaded in a panic: "Big lady, do you have any misunderstanding about the slave maid?" Why don't you tell the slave what the hell is going on! ”

Cui Huan moved his knees and rubbed forward, pulled the corner of Yuan's skirt, and begged bitterly.

Yuan pulled back the corner of his skirt, his eyes widened, and his tone was much sharper, "Didn't you collude with outsiders to kill the maid in the house?" ”

Cuihuan's face changed suddenly, but there was no panic and panic in her eyes, some were just dazed, she was stunned for a few moments and suddenly understood something, and she grabbed Yuan's dress and cried, "How dare the slave!" No matter how foolish the slave is, it is impossible for the slave to make these two big mistakes! Slaves and maids will not collude with outsiders, and second, they will not seek people's lives! ”

Yuan's face was blue and silent, Cuihuan could only put her hope on her master when she saw this, she moved her knees and threw herself in front of Xiao Qingshi, and repeatedly kowtowed and begged: "Brother Shi! Say something! ”

"Me? What do you want me to say? Xiao Qingshi picked up the teacup, his immature face was full of meaninglessness, he took a sip of tea, except for the fragrance of the tea, which made his eyebrows slightly brighter, there was no other emotion.

Seeing this, Yuan's face became more and more heavy, thinking about what Cuihuan did, and thinking that Cuihuan was Xiao Qingshi's personal maid, for fear that Cuihuan would teach Xiao Qingshi badly, he immediately slapped the table and scolded angrily: "Don't involve your master in the pickled things you do!" ”

The maids on Yuan's side have been following Yuan's for many years, and seeing that Yuan's annoyance is obvious, they rolled up their sleeves and stepped forward to pull Cuihuan away from Xiao Qingshi, so that Cuihuan cried and left.

Cui Huanqiao's face was covered with strangulation marks, and her cry was full of despair, "Brother Shi! The slave really didn't do it, you know the slave best! You intercede for the slave and the maid, and ask the eldest lady to believe in the slave! ”

"I never care about the back house, you know." Xiao Qingshi's tone was indifferent, there was no slightest wave in his eyes, his appearance also made Yuan a little surprised, after all, Cuihuan was a maid who had served Xiao Qingshi for more than a year, he could do it without any pity, whether it was general knowledge or indifference, Yuan's heart was difficult to decide for a while.

Yuan hopes that Xiao Qingshi will know the general situation, but he can understand the general situation again, and his eyes should not be so calm, Xiao Qingshi told Yuan on the side that he was affectionate enough.

Yuan's heart sank slightly, and even though he laughed at himself, how could he compare with a maid, probably in Xiao Qingshi's heart, he just thought that your maid could be replaced at will, but he was the mother who gave birth to him and raised him, so he had to respect a few points.

Xiao Qingshi's words made Cuihuan stop crying, she stared at Xiao Qingshi with her neck stiff, her eyes almost wanted to quench the poisonous juice, she actually knew in her heart that Xiao Qingshi was sitting here now just because she was Xiao Qingshi's personal maid, whether it was punishment, sending out of the house, or even execution, he needed to be present to watch, if she pleaded with him, she was looking for the wrong person.

"Big lady! You said that the slave maid killed the maid in the house, what is the evidence? Cuihuan raised her head and asked slowly in a trembling voice, she bit her lip and held on to the last trace of stubbornness.

"Here's the letter and the medicine from your house." Mama Gao threw the objects in the tray directly to Cuihuan, Mama Gao's tone was full of chill and anger, obviously she also believed that Cuihuan killed Fuyuan.

"Letters and medicines?" Cuihuan looked dazed, and immediately hurriedly opened those objects one by one, the strangeness of them made her fall into a confusion, she really didn't know anything!

"You still don't admit it?" Yuan became more and more annoyed when she saw this, she originally thought that if Cuihuan sincerely told the reason, maybe she would still keep Cuihuan alive, after all, that would be equivalent to Cuihuan trusting her and being loyal to her, but now that the physical evidence is there, I don't want Cuihuan to still deny it! It's really annoying!

Cuihuan held those objects, her hands trembled violently, and the tears that she had endured burst out again, "The slave has never seen these things!" ”

Cuihuan is not stupid, although she has only been in the house for more than a year, she understands that she has been framed, and she doesn't even know who the other party is!

"Mama Gao, take it down, let's kill it with a cane!" Yuan obviously didn't want to listen to Cuihuan's words anymore, and waved his hand and said.

After the eldest lady said that, the maid and the woman came to pull Cuihuan one after another, wanting to drag it down, but Cuihuan shouted at the top of her voice, "Wait! Didn't the eldest lady ever think that she was being taken advantage of! As Brother Shi's maid, how could the slave do such a bastard thing! ”

"I don't dare to guarantee you for this!" Xiao Qingshi's tone was indifferent, and he straightened up, and the shadow in the room happened to fall on his face, making it impossible to see his demeanor.

Cuihuan was furious, and scolded without caring about anything, "Big lady, look, when Brother Shi'er is weak, even your mother will not recognize you!" The slave has never seen such a merciful person in her life! And Brother Shi'er's other personal maid is not a good thing! You mothers and sons are waiting for defeat......"

Mama Gao stuffed a piece of cloth into Cuihuan's mouth, which blocked Cuihuan's mouth, and then dragged Cuihuan away.

The room fell silent again, Xiao Qingshi slowly walked in front of Yuan, rubbed his hands respectfully, and then slowly retreated.

Yuan Shi looked at Xiao Qingshi's immature and thin back and fell into contemplation, Xu was staring at it for a long time, she seemed to be seeing a man with a weak crown slowly leaving this world, his steps were resolute, and he did not leave half of his affection.
