Chapter Forty-Six
Rouge looked at it and was startled, wasn't that the pearl hairpin that the second lady gave her, how could it fall into the hands of the eldest lady, she had obviously hidden, how could it be......
She looked at Qiao Ci with a bit of hatred in her eyes. It must be that this dead girl took advantage of her to go out and secretly found it out of her room, so that she could ask for credit in front of the eldest lady.
No wonder the eldest lady's attitude towards her has become more and more cold recently, it turns out that this girl is actually a hindrance.
Rouge gritted his teeth, refused to admit it, and shouted injustice: "The slave doesn't recognize this pearl hairpin, and the eldest lady also said that this thing is not an ordinary thing, how can a lowly person like a slave and a maid have such a good pearl hairpin."
At this time, he was still talking nonsense with his eyes open, and he would not repent.
Su Jinzhao asked: "Since you don't know this thing, why did you find this pearl hairpin in your house, and how do you explain it?"
Rouge's face froze, and he couldn't think about it, so he hurriedly explained: "Framed! This must be framed, someone deliberately planted it, eldest lady, the slave is loyal to you, you must believe it. ”
Loyalty? Ridiculous, ridiculous.
Su Jinzhao played with the bead hairpin in his hand, and said coldly: "Really? Whether you are faithful or false to me will be known later. ”
After that, he gave Qiaoci a look and motioned her to search Rouge's body.
Qiao Ci comprehended and strode towards Rouge.
Rouge's heart tightened, his face turned pale with fright, he moved back again and again, and said in a lost voice: "What are you going to do?"
Qiao Ci said word by word: "Of course, it is to prove your innocence."
Rouge clearly understood that if Qiaoci was to be searched, then she would not be able to tell.
Therefore, she did not allow and could not allow Qiaoci to search her body.
She cried and begged Su Jinzhao: "Miss, the slave maid usually serves you with all her heart, if you are searched by the maid today, how can the slave and maid raise their heads among the sisters in the future, in this way, the slave maid might as well crash to death on this pillar to show her innocence."
Su Jinzhao didn't believe that she would really hit the pillar to show her innocence, would a person who betrayed his righteousness and was not greedy enough not care about his own life?
The answer is,
Impossible.
Seeing that Su Jinzhao was indifferent, Rouge gritted his teeth, his heart was horizontal, and he wanted to hit the opposite pillar.
Coincidentally, this move was bumped into by Qingwen, who came back from visiting relatives, and she hurriedly stepped forward to stop Rouge.
"Sister Rouge, what are you going to do here?" As she spoke, she looked at Su Jinzhao, as if asking what was wrong.
It's only been a few days since she went back to visit her relatives, and Rouge, who has always been favored, is looking for death, how could things have come to this.
Su Jinzhao didn't believe that Rouge would really seek death Mingzhi, but was stopped by Qingwen, and she went to tell Qiaoci again.
Facing the little girl's little face full of doubts, Su Jinzhao said lightly: "You just came back, and you don't know what happened in the house recently." The meaning couldn't be clearer, it was for her not to interfere.
Qingwen was only twelve years old, but she also understood, and after stopping the rouge, she consciously stepped aside.
She is a maid after all, and she dare not disobey the orders of her master.
Su Jinzhao nodded slightly, still obedient.
Look at the hour, it's almost time for the people to come.
Su Jinzhao lowered his eyebrows, looked at the rouge who was kneeling on the ground, and slightly hooked the corners of his mouth: "Since you said that you are loyal to me, why, do you want to search your body?"
Seeing Su Jinzhao's resolute attitude and non-negotiable, Rouge was so anxious that tears fell, and she cried: "Slave maid...... Slave ......"
"Eldest sister!" A sweet voice suddenly sounded outside the house, but this time the eldest sister was a little hurried, as if she was in a hurry.
The corners of Su Jinzhao's mouth rose slightly, and it was not in vain that she asked Qiaoci to let out her voice in advance, which attracted Su Jinling to come.
Seeing such a scene, Su Jinling stepped into the house faster.
Before the person sat down, he pointed to Rouge who was kneeling on the ground and asked Su Jinzhao: "Eldest sister, I heard the crying in your house from afar, Rouge, this girl looks well-behaved and sensible on weekdays, I don't know what mistakes I made today, which made the eldest sister so unhappy, looking at this crying face, how distressing it is."
As soon as the words fell, Rouge hurriedly kowtowed to Su Jinling.
The second miss will come over here, she must be here to help her say good things, most of the things she did were instructed by the second miss, she is now suspected by the eldest miss, and the second miss can't see death without help.
If something happens to her, the second lady can't get out of it.
Su Jinling heard that Rouge was called by Su Jinzhao for questioning after leaving Rongxiu Courtyard, and after thinking about it left and right, she couldn't help but say something that this girl shouldn't say, and decided to come over and take a look.
If she is one step late, I am afraid that the girl Rouge will have to explain everything, and the consequences will be unimaginable.
Su Jinzhao's face was still smiling, and he quietly invited Su Jinling to sit down, and said slowly: "Yesterday, the stage collapsed for no reason, and I asked people to check it afterwards, only to find out that it was not an accident, but a man-made one." Halfway through the words, she stopped and raised her eyes towards Su Jinling.
At this time, Su Jinling's expression was slightly different, and she pretended to be calm: "Really? I thought it was an accident, but I didn't expect it to be...... Accidentally. ”
As she spoke, she glanced at Rouge with her peripheral vision, and a little uneasiness welled up in her heart.
Su Jinzhao looked at everything in his eyes and continued: "Who said no, at first I would rather it be an accident than believe that it was done on purpose, but this girl Rouge should not be so bold, I think she was instructed by someone, and the thoughts of the people behind this are also very vicious. Thankfully, it didn't matter. ”
Vicious person, isn't that talking about herself?
Su Jinling's face was not good for a while, but she had to respond out loud: "What the eldest sister said is that this person doesn't care about the safety of others, and his heart is really vicious."
has always scolded others, and scolded himself for being vicious, Su Jinzhao wanted to laugh when he heard it, presumably at this time Su Jinling's heart was not very comfortable.
Su Jinzhao nodded and said: "I personally explained it before, if it wasn't for the problems of the people around me, I really can't think of anyone else."
Su Jinling shook her hand and said, "There are so many maids around the eldest sister, why do you suspect Rouge, this girl looks honest and responsible, not like a person who can do this kind of thing, the eldest sister is not mistaken, maybe there are others who are doing things on the stage."
An intriguing smile crossed the corner of Su Jinzhao's mouth, Su Jinling was really anxious, so anxious to clear the suspicion for rouge, the purpose couldn't be more obvious.
Su Jinzhao took the pearl hairpin in his hand and shook it in front of Su Jinling, and said, "It's not that I'm targeting this girl, but I recently found that this girl's behavior is really suspicious." Oh, you see this pearl hairpin, it was searched from her room, my sister thought about it, how could a mere maid have such a valuable thing, it has to make people suspicious. ”
Seeing the pearl hairpin, Su Jinling's face changed. It was given to her in order to win over Rouge, but she never thought that it would fall into the hands of Su Jinzhao today.
