Chapter 361: Miserable Relatives
Shen Zhuosi took off the sack on Mingzhu's head, and Mingzhu's eyes were still covered with a piece of gauze, just to prevent her from seeing the place clearly.
Lu Xiyi walked to Mingzhu's side slowly, looked at it, Xiaoxue on the side signaled that she could ask, Xiaoxue pretended to cough a few times, walked up to her and said, "Tell you, the patriarch of our clan is Lu Yin's own uncle, and he suspects that you killed Lu Yin, so we tied you up." ”
Mingzhu trembled with fright, turned her head and said, "I don't know what you're talking about, girl, Lu Yin and I were just maids in the Guogong Mansion before, serving the young master and Mrs., but I haven't killed Lu Yin." ”
Xiaoxue choked her chin tightly, "I still said no, your nails are exactly the same as the marks on the neck of the green moan." ”
Shen Zhuosi was a little embarrassed on the side, he could deduce the murderer just by a fingernail, which was too ridiculous, but it was just the right time to bluff this pearl who didn't know anything.
Mingzhu became more and more frightened, weak and panicked, shook her head and said, "I really haven't killed anyone, I really haven't killed anyone." ”
"Enough, have you killed anyone, God can see it clearly, if you don't want to admit it, we'll throw you into the well, so that you will never see your young lady for the rest of your life?"
"Please, don't hurt me, I really didn't hurt Midori ......"
Seeing her crying and crying, and refusing to tell the truth, Shen Zhuosi scared on the side: "If you refuse to tell the truth, then we can only lynch, the rules in our village, start with cutting off your fingers, then the great elder will punish you now." ”
Xiaoxue stepped forward and sandwiched the bamboo between her fingers, and Mingzhu screamed in fright, "Please, don't." ”
"Then why don't you hurry up and explain honestly, lest your slender jade finger be broken, it's not good to serve your young lady, then I want to see if your young lady will be merciful and raise you to stay by your side."
Mingzhu's frightened tears fell down like beads with broken threads, and Lu Xiyi couldn't bear to scare her, but in order to get closer to the truth, she had to do this.
Mingzhu nodded and said, "I said I said, I killed Green Yin, okay." ”
Xiaoxue and Shen Zhuosi looked at each other, Shen Zhuosi stared at her and said, "How did you kill Lu Yin?" ”
Mingzhu was crying in despair, she couldn't see in front of her, and the darkness in front of her made her feel like she was in the abyss.
"That day, I told Lu Yin that the eldest young master wanted to see her, and then took her out, but he was arrogant to me, and I was angry for a while, so I strangled her, I didn't mean to... I really didn't mean to hurt her. ”
Xiaoxue said on the side: "So you threw her into the well, why are you so vicious?" ”
Mingzhu shook her head and said, "She provoked me first, if she didn't do that to me, the two of us wouldn't have been able to fight, and then I really accidentally pushed her down." Mingzhu reacted shrewdly, and quickly made up a set of nonsense to deceive everyone, regardless of whether they believed it or not, but she would not confess to Miss even if she died.
Lu Xiyi looked at Xiaoxue and brought her to the door, Xiaoxue helped her chest and said, "How is it?" Shopkeeper, do you think she's telling the truth or a lie? ”
"She has no reason to lie to us, let's put her back first, lest this matter really alarm the government."
Xiaoxue took the leather whip in her hand and tapped the ground fiercely, "What are you afraid of, let's lock her in the firewood room for a few days, let her think about it carefully, whether the explanation that should be explained and what should not be explained has been explained, it's okay." ”
Lu Xiyi frowned, he still felt that this matter was not so simple, so he asked Shen Zhuosi to put Mingzhu back, and in the middle of the night, Mei Fangruo heard the sound of someone coming in the courtyard, and he didn't expect it to be Mingzhu at a glance.
Mingzhu saw Mei Fangruo, stumbled to her, tears rained down, knelt aside and said, "Miss." Mingzhu almost won't see you. Xiu'er came out of the backyard and looked at Mingzhu's tired and sloppy appearance, and helped her up.
"Mingzhu, where the hell have you been? Miss and I are so worried about you. Mingzhu shook her head with a hurt face, Mei Fangruo looked around and said, "Don't talk outside, hurry in and say." ”
Mingzhu nodded, and told the strange things she encountered when she went to purchase this morning, Mei Fangruo's face crossed a look of doubt, looked at her and said, "Have you heard where those people's accents are?" ”
Mingzhu shook her head, "Mingzhu was too scared at that time, although it was a son and a girl, but they seemed to be people from the capital, and they should be people from the city." ”
"Who is it? Is it ......?"
She didn't dare to think about it any further, looked at Mingzhu and said, "Did you say it?" Mingzhu shook his head and bit his thin lip angrily and said: "Mingzhu didn't explain to you, Miss, Mingzhu just said that it was Mingzhu and Green Yin who had a dispute and accidentally pushed her into the well, Miss, Mingzhu didn't betray you." ”
Xiu'er was terrified when she listened on the sidelines, looked at Mei Fangruo and said, "What should I do, Miss, they have already suspected you?" Mei Fangruo said angrily: "Shut up! It can't be, it can't be so easily suspicious of me. ”
"Miss, hasn't the eldest lady been back to the house these days?" Mingzhu asked curiously, and Mei Fangruo suddenly realized: "I understand, it must be her!" She already suspects you, Mingzhu, you don't go out until you have to, stay in the house these days. ”
Mingzhu nodded cautiously, Xiu'er took Mingzhu down first, late at night, Mei Fangruo came to Zhong Yihan's house, Zhong Yihan heard the footsteps, and knew that it was Lu Xiyi who came back, Mei Fangruo slowly approached him with a shy smile on her face, Zhong Yihan was puzzled: "It's been so many days, isn't your voice good?" ”
Mei Fangruo coughed lightly to show her discomfort.
"It's really hard for you, my throat has been bad for so many days and it hasn't gotten better."
Mei Fangruo directly reached out to untie his shirt, but before he could untie it halfway, he suddenly grabbed his hand, Zhong Yihan moved his eyes to her, although he couldn't see it, but he could analyze from her demeanor, Lu Xiyi should want to stay in his room and sleep.
"Xiaoxi, these days, I'm a little uncomfortable, besides, your throat is not good yet, let's go to the side hospital to recuperate first, don't worry about my affairs anymore, everything is still Fangruo, I haven't seen Ziyan in the past few days, was she expelled from the house by her mother?"
"Hmm..."
Mei Fanglian cautiously gave a um, Zhong Yihan nodded and said, "I understand, I feel that the house is a little unpeaceful these days, my father hasn't come to see me, what's wrong with him?" I always feel like you've been hiding something from me. ”
