The housekeeper's mother followed Mama Xu into the outer hall of Songhe Hall, and as soon as she entered, she saw a room full of people.

The old lady Xu sat on the main seat, her expression was not angry and arrogant.

The housekeeper's mother chuckled in her heart, and bowed her head respectfully to greet everyone.

After greeting him, the housekeeper's mother didn't dare to say anything more, and stood aside.

The hall was very quiet, and the pins could be heard.

Xu Shi looked at the housekeeper's mother in the big kitchen, and asked in a deep voice: "I heard that the second lady's meal is not very different from everyone else, is there such a thing?" ”

The housekeeper's mother sighed in her heart, her hands tightened, she secretly swallowed her saliva, glanced at Xu Shi carefully, and then the afterglow of her eyes swept over Fang's face.

Fang's eyes did not squint, and he did not make eye contact with the housekeeper's mother.

The housekeeper's mother's heart sank, she gritted her teeth secretly, and then pulled the hem of her clothes and knelt down with a plop.

"Old lady, it's all the slave's fault, it's the slave's negligence, last night... Last night, the slave maid had arranged the dinner in each room and courtyard, and also arranged the corresponding people to send it over, who knows, the girl who sent dinner to the second lady was careless, and the second lady's dinner was dropped halfway, this girl was afraid of being punished, so she secretly came back to find the remaining gruel and a few small dishes and sent it over, the slave and the maid did not know, until this morning I found out, and the girl had been severely punished, this matter is the negligence of the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid did not dare to argue, please punish the old lady! ”

With that, the housekeeper's mother kowtowed heavily.

Xu Shi looked coldly at the housekeeper's mother kowtowing and did not speak.

The housekeeper's mother's words are full of loopholes, and it is really difficult to be convinced.

If you have to say what's going on, it's like a pretext that came up in a hurry.

Xu is not a fool, how can he believe the words of his mother.

"Where's that girl?" Xu asked.

When the housekeeper's mother heard this, she kowtowed, and her hand on the ground trembled and tightened again.

The Xu family is old, but the heart is not old, and his eyes are still the same as back then, very sharp.

It was a mother's small action, and none of it escaped her eyes.

If it weren't for the weakness of the heart, how could it not be answered?

What girl is not careful, I'm afraid it's "accidental", it's herself!

Or, rather, at the behest of some people, on purpose!

Xu Shi tugged at the corners of his lips, laughed, and waved his hand at Mama Xu.

Mama Xu understood, suddenly raised her hand and pointed to the housekeeper's mother who knelt down, and shouted: "Bold slave, the old lady asked, why is it difficult to answer, where are you putting the old lady like this!" Don't answer yet! ”

No one expected that Mama Xu would suddenly be in trouble.

Everyone was startled, and then looked at the housekeeper's mother.

I saw the housekeeper's mother's fat back trembled a few times, and she kept kowtowing and said: "The old lady forgives the sins, the old lady forgives the sins, it's all the slave's fault, the slave maid, the slave didn't deliberately not answer the old lady's words, in fact, the slave did something wrong, and she was afraid that the old lady would be punished, so she didn't answer in time." ”

The housekeeper's mother paused for a moment, gritted her teeth, and said with determination: "Slave, slave has already driven that girl away!" Please forgive the old lady, the slave and maid are also very angry, so they will act impulsively. ”

"Bold! What did you say! Xu was furious, and when he slapped his hand, the tea cup in his hand trembled.

"The old lady forgives the sins, the slave maid, the slave and the maid are really in a hurry, so she did something wrong, ask the old lady for forgiveness!" The housekeeper's mother kept kowtowing, crying snot and tears.

Xu Shi laughed angrily, pointed at the housekeeper's mother and sneered: "You are really good, who gave you such a right to dare to dispose of my Gu family's minions!" ”

"Old lady forgiveness!" The housekeeper's mother didn't dare to defend herself, so she kept begging for mercy.

Xu walked back and forth twice in place, and pointed at the housekeeper's mother hatefully: "Such an unruly slave, my Gu family doesn't dare to use it again, Fang Lan, drag her down for me, beat her, and drive her out of the house!" ”

"The old lady forgives the sins, the old lady forgives the sins!" The housekeeper's mother cried and kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Xu was extremely angry and didn't listen to his mother at all.

Seeing that begging for mercy was useless, the housekeeper's mother had to turn her gaze to Fang's.

Fang couldn't help but shrink when he saw the hopeful gaze cast by the housekeeper's mother, and after thinking about it, he still didn't say anything, but turned his head sideways and stopped looking at the housekeeper's mother.

"Pull it out!" Xu angrily pointed at the housekeeper's mother.

Seeing that Xu was angry, Mama Xu didn't dare to delay any longer, so she hurriedly called two rough mothers-in-law, blocked the housekeeper's mother's mouth, and dragged people out.

After the housekeeper's mother was dragged out, Xu sat back on the chair.

Taking a few breaths, the more Xu thought about it, the more angry he felt.

A minion dares to play tricks under his nose, who gave her the guts!

After a while, Mama Xu returned.

Walking quickly to Xu's side, Mama Xu attached herself to Xu's ear and whispered a few words.

Everyone saw that after hearing this, Xu's brows furrowed, but his anger seemed to have subsided.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder what Mama Xu said, which could make the angry Xu family dissipate.

Before they could dig deeper, Xu told them to leave.

Everyone didn't know why, and their doubts were even worse, but they didn't dare to disobey Xu's intentions, so they had to go back first.

Fang Shi walked a few steps, his heart beating hard, and he couldn't help but look back again.

When she turned around, she saw Xu staring at her with heavy eyes.

Fang's whole heart couldn't help but sink.

The old lady stared at herself like this, thinking about it, she must know something.

Fang's pace gradually slowed down.

After a while, everyone had almost retreated, and Fang Clan secretly took a breath, turned around and went back to Songhe Hall.

"Old lady, the eldest lady is here, saying that she wants to see you, do you want to see you?" Pan Xia walked into the hall and asked.

Xu's voice was faint, and he said, "Call her in." ”

"Yes, old lady." Pan Xia answered and went out.

After a while, the Fang clan came in.

Mama Xu waved her hand at Pan Xia, hoping that Xia would meet, and took out all the people who were waiting in Xu's house.

Everyone left, and the Xu family glanced at the Fang family.

Fang Shi was involuntarily nervous by Xu's gaze, secretly swallowed his saliva, and lowered his eyebrows.

The Xu clan didn't speak, and the Fang clan didn't dare to say it first.

After a long time, Xu snorted and said casually: "You didn't want to look for me, why did you come, don't say a word!" ”

Fang raised his head and glanced at Xu, his complexion changed several times, and then he gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, my daughter-in-law is guilty, and I have come to ask you for her guilt." ”

"Oh," Xu snorted, "guilty? Tell me what your sins are. ”

Fang closed his eyes slightly.

Xu Shi made up her mind to let her say it herself, she knew that she was going to admit her mistake, but she deliberately asked like this.

It's not that it's hard to make up your mind, it's for what!
