Chapter 203: Spare Xiaocui

Fanfu

Lu Yaqin was eating, and there were several side dishes on the table, such as meatball soup, straw duck, braised eggplant, and stir-fried lichen vegetables.

Xiao Cui, who was serving the soup, accidentally threw the soup bowl to the ground, and the soup was all spilled.

Lu Yaqin scolded: "Xiaocui, what's going on with you lately? Break the teacup early, and smash the soup bowl now, are you intentional? ”

The panicked Xiaocui immediately knelt down and said, "Miss spares her life, it's Xiaocui who is not good at servants." ”

Xiao Cui squatted down and picked up the broken bowl with her bare hands in shock and fear, and Lu Yaqin watched coldly.

Zhou's mother walked in and shouted, "Ah, Xiaocui, your hand is broken and bleeding, why don't you stupid girl clean it with a dustpan." ”

Zhou's mother looked at Lu Yaqin again and said, "Why don't you persuade me, you see that Xiaocui's hands are hurt." ”

Lu Yaqin stared at Xiao Cui thoughtfully and said nothing.

Xiao Cui explained in a panic: "It's okay mother, it's Xiao Cui who broke the soup bowl and made Miss unhappy, the slave damned, Miss has spared Xiao Cui a lot." ”

"Go down!" Lu Yaqin said coldly.

"Yes." Xiao Cui didn't dare to raise her head and retreated.

Zhou's mother complained: "Yaqin, Xiaocui has been serving you since she was a child, how can you ......?"

Lu Yaqin interrupted Zhou's mother and asked, "Zhou's mother, don't you think Xiaocui has been weird lately?" Always looks absent-minded and flustered, do you think Xiaocui will know something? ”

Mother Zhou asked in surprise, "Yaqin, should you be suspicious of Xiaocui?" Xiaocui is something you brought from Dongsang Village and has been heartfelt, don't guess. ”

Lu Yaqin's eyes were shining with cold light and sneered: "According to what I know about her, this girl definitely knows something." ”

Mother Zhou was taken aback and persuaded: "Yaqin, you must not kill Xiaocui, no matter how you say it, she is Lu Youliang's own flesh and blood." Although I hate Xiaocui's biological mother for preventing the master from accepting me as a concubine, but the master has been very good to our mother and daughter for so many years, so you can't deal with Xiaocui even if it is for the sake of Master Lu, mother, please beg you. ”

"I've got my own measure." Lu Yaqin's gloomy face pulled a sneer.

Back in the room, Cui shrank back into the corner in fear, trembling for fear of her trembling.

Xiaocui shook her head while crying: "No, no, no, how can Niang and Miss be this kind of person?" I must have read it wrong, I read it wrong......"

Xiaocui clearly remembers the day Fangcao died, and she accidentally found a pair of men's pants while cleaning the lady's room.

"How can there be a man's red pants in Miss's room?" Xiao Cui muttered to herself.

Just when she was wondering, Fangcao came in, and in a hurry, Xiaocui stuffed the men's pants back where she found, and then pretended to wipe something.

"Xiao Cui, what did you just hold in your hand?" Fangcao asked suspiciously.

Xiao Cui replied hesitantly: "Oh nothing, did you read it wrong?" ”

After speaking, Xiaocui walked out of the house with a weak heart.

When Xiaocui returned to the door to find Fangcao, Xiaocui heard a strange sound in the house.

Xiaocui secretly leaned on the crack of the window to peek, only to see her mother and Lu Yaqin in the house holding down the herb together, and pouring something into her mouth.

A few minutes later, Fangcao, who was lying on the ground, foamed at the mouth and remained motionless.

Before she died, Fangcao's hand was still tugging on the red pants she had seen earlier.

Xiao Cui was so frightened that her feet went weak and fled back to the house.

She couldn't believe that Miss and Niang would do such a thing.

Later, the news of Fangcao's death spread all over the house, and she also heard the conversation between Fan Jian and Zhou's mother and Miss.

Zhou's mother and Lu Yaqin insisted that Fangcao was a habitual thief, and when they stole something, they accidentally knocked over the poison and thought they were clever and accidentally ate the medicine pill before they died.

In order to protect herself, she even helped Miss tell a lie with her conscience, and she was really worried that if Miss knew about it, she would kill her.

Since then, Xiaocui has always trembled in front of Lu Yaqin, and it is common for her to break the tea bowl today and the soup bowl tomorrow.

She didn't even dare to look into the eyes of the young lady, and the scene of poisoning Fangcao came to her mind all the time, which made her panic.

Before going to bed, Xiaocui finished serving Lu Yaqin to wash up as usual, and Lu Yaqin stopped her.

Xiao Cui had a premonition that something was wrong and asked in a panic, "What else does Miss have to say?" ”

Lu Yaqin stood up and closed the door herself, so frightened that Xiao Cui's hands and feet were weak and she only knelt on the ground and shouted: "Miss spare your life, Miss spare your life, did Xiao Cui do something wrong?" ”

Lu Yaqin sneered and said, "Xiaocui, don't be nervous, I want you to see something." ”

After speaking, Lu Yaqin took out the red pants and threw them next to Xiao Cui and asked, "Have you ever seen this thing if you take a closer look?" ”

"This ...... This ......" Xiao Cui said in a cold sweat on her forehead: "Miss, what is this?" Xiao Cui has never seen it. ”

Lu Yaqin scolded viciously: "Dare to tell lies when you are dying!" Be honest, or you'll look good. ”

Xiao Cui was so frightened that she opened her mouth and admitted: "I said, I said, I saw these red pants when the slave maid was cleaning the room a few days ago. ”

"Oh? So who do you think it will be? Lu Yaqin asked rhetorically.

Xiaocui cried: "Miss slave maid doesn't know...... Woowoo woo ......"

Lu Yaqin sneered: "What are you crying for? Tell me what else you know besides this? ”

"I ...... I ......" Xiaocui was too frightened to speak.

Lu Yaqin said ruthlessly: "If you don't tell the truth, you don't want to leave the room alive tonight, Fangcao's fate is your fate." ”

Xiao Cui's face turned pale, and she said tremblingly: "When I found the red obscene pants that day, Fangcao came in, I don't know if she saw it, so I stuffed the red obscene pants back in place and left the room in a hurry." ”

"And then?" Lu Yaqin asked.

"Later...... Later......"

"Speak quickly!"

Xiaocui cried: "Later, I heard a strange voice outside the door and peeked by the window, and I saw ...... See ......"

Lu Yaqin sneered: "Is it right to see Fangcao die? ”

Xiao Cui climbed to Lu Yaqin's feet and kowtowed: "Miss, you let Xiao Cui go, Xiao Cui will definitely keep her mouth shut, for the sake of you and my master and servant for many years, you let Xiao Cui go." ”

Lu Yaqin secretly thought in her heart: "Only the dead will keep their mouths shut." ”

Xiao Cui kowtowed desperately, and her forehead was bleeding and she didn't stop.

Zhou's mother's voice came from the door: "Xiaocui, are you inside?" Did the young lady sleep? ”

"Mother, save me, Miss is going to kill me......" Xiao Cui's cry came.

Mother Zhou slammed open the door in a hurry and said, "Yaqin, you can't do this." ”

Xiaocui hid behind Zhou's mother in fear, and she didn't dare to breathe.

Lu Yaqin saw that someone was doing something bad, her face changed and she smiled: "Who said I was going to kill you?" ”

Zhou's mother dragged Xiaocui and said, "What do you have in your girl's head?" Don't admit your mistake to Miss yet. ”

Xiao Cui knelt down and said, "I beg Miss for forgiveness, it's the slave who has no mouth to stop, Xiao Cui won't dare next time." ”

Lu Yaqin squeezed out a few tears from the corners of her eyes and cried: "Xiaocui, I can't hide that the red obscene pants are the flower thief must be picked, and it was the lewd thief who defiled me......"

Lu Yaqin picked up the silk handkerchief and pretended to cry.

Mother Zhou helped explain: "Xiaocui's Fangcao was sent by the young master to spy on the young lady, and you also know about it." Fangcao found out about the red pants, and she will definitely tell the young master, and we will be finished by then. That herb must have known a lot of things that were not good for us, and we had to do it as a last resort, and there was no way to do it. ”

Xiao Cui said in a daze: "Miss Niang, don't worry, I won't tell you about it, Xiao Cui has served Miss since she was a child, and Xiao Cui's heartfelt heart to Miss can be seen from the sun and the moon." ”

Zhou's mother persuaded: "Okay, okay, now we are the people of the same boat, Yaqin, you think about it, Xiaocui also helped us speak in front of the young master that day, if she has the heart to tell this matter, she doesn't have to do this, right?" ”

Lu Yaqin took out a bunch of gold and silver jewelry and stuffed it to Xiao Cui and said, "Xiao Cui, you and I are like sisters, you should know very well what kind of person I am." ”

"Miss is a good person, a living bodhisattva in the eyes of others, Xiaocui knows it." Xiao Cui said: "But Miss, these Xiao Cui can't accept it." ”

Lu Yaqin insisted on giving her and said: "Since I married into the Fan family, I have been snubbed, I can't finish my debut because of my suffering, and now I am insulted by Hua Bicai, I am really worse than dead......"

Xiao Cui comforted: "Miss, don't say that, it's not your fault, Xiao Cui will always be on your side." ”

"Xiaocui, you are really my good sister, it's better to go down and rest early."

"Miss rest early, Xiaocui retires."

At the door, Zhou's mother took Xiaocui's hand and said: "Daughter, dare to do anything for the sake of the young lady, and now the mother's hands are also stained with blood, if you talk about it, the mother will die." ”

Xiaocui said: "Mother, how can it be? You are my mother, even if you let Xiaocui die, Xiaocui will not say it. ”

"Well, don't think about it after a tiring day, rest early." Zhou's mother persuaded.

Xiao Cui nodded and said, "Mother, you should also rest early." ”

After Xiaocui left, Zhou's mother returned to the room.

"You really wanted to kill Xiao Cui just now?" Zhou's mother asked.

Lu Yaqin denied: "No, you think too much." ”

Zhou's mother sneered: "You were born to me, don't I know what you're thinking in your stomach?" I warn you not to do anything to Tsui. ”

Lu Yaqin shouted angrily: "Is she your biological daughter or am I your biological daughter?" ”

Zhou's mother sighed and said: "Although Xiaocui is not my biological daughter, after all, we have been mothers and daughters for so many years, and we also have feelings. Xiaocui is kind-hearted and filial to me, I really can't bear to see you do something to her. ”

"The kindness of a woman!" Lu Yaqin sarcastically said: "Sooner or later, you will regret it, and it will be too late by then." ”

Zhou's mother said: "Yaqin, why do I think you have changed a lot since you entered the Fan family?" ”

Lu Yaqin sneered: "They are all forced, Brother Qingfeng is anti-marriage, Pei Xiuxiu is robbing marriage, Fan Jian is snubbing me, Hua Bicai is bullying me, I will not let them go one by one." ”

"Hey!" Zhou's mother sighed heavily and persuaded: "It's better not to be angry if you are pregnant, rest early, and stop thinking nonsense." ”

Lu Yaqin retracted her gaze and asked, "Mother, did I ask you to dispose of Hua Bicai's corpse?" ”

Zhou's mother replied: "Don't worry, I buried the body long ago, no one will find it." ”

"Hmm."
