Xiao Shuyong's words made Xiao Lingxiao a little surprised, since Xiao Shumou took the woman away in the Lu Mansion last time, Xiao Lingxiao has not heard from him again, I didn't expect Xiao Shuyong to get him back. Originally, Xiao Lingxiao also wanted to provoke Xiao Shuyong to report to the official and let that Jing Zhaoyin deal with this matter, but now that he thinks about it, Xiao Shumou may also be a good candidate.

With Xiao Shuyong here, no one in the courtyard dared to leave. They waited like this for a full hour, and the sky was a little brighter, and Xiao Shumou hurried over.

Xiao Ranjun came back with Xiao Shumou, the two of them knew that they were coming in a hurry as soon as they saw the outfit, Xiao Ranjun rushed to Xiao Lingxiao's side as soon as he entered the courtyard, and asked with concern, "Sister, are you okay?" Xiao Lingxiao shook her head, lowered her voice and told Xiao Ranjun about this matter.

Xiao Shuyong looked at the intimacy between their brother and sister, and couldn't help but snort, thinking that this son didn't greet him as a father first when he entered the door, but cared more about his sister, Xiao Ranjun, he really didn't have the same heart as himself!

Xiao Shumou saw Xiao Shuyong looking at Xiao Lingxiao and Xiao Ranjun with gloomy faces, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart. He knows best his eldest brother's temperament, although he has the talent of the prime minister, but he lacks the measure of being a person, if it weren't for this, when the Lu family was destroyed, he Xiao Shumou would not have taken Xiao Ranjun away from home, and the two sons of their father, the reason why the second and fourth masters in the prime minister's mansion are not officials in the imperial city is more or less because Xiao Shuyong can't tolerate the two of them, so he is not a mediocre brother who is not outstanding and unconvinced.

Now seeing that Xiao Shuyong has shifted his target to Xiao Lingxiao and Xiao Ranjun again, Xiao Shumou inevitably sighs and feels heartache.

Xiao Shuyong briefly told Xiao Shumou what happened, and he still pointed the finger at Xiao Lingxiao in his words. However, Xiao Shumou is a smart person, and after hearing what happened, he felt that something was wrong. Xiao Shumou thought about it, nodded and called a few personal maids who served the eldest lady to inquire a little, and those few people all said that Xiao Lingxiao was the only one in this mansion who had a grudge with the eldest lady.

"Third master, we shouldn't be too talkative, but the eldest lady is really doing a lot of bad things to Mrs. behind her back." Liang's mother sighed as she spoke, "During this time, things in the house were busy, and even a few aunts followed to help, and the eldest lady was afraid that the eldest lady would feel that she had neglected her, and she felt that the eldest lady could take care of so many outside businesses and had great skills, so she specially invited the old lady to ask the eldest lady to help." Originally, the eldest lady should have gone to the account room to follow the inventory, but after the eldest lady went, she was annoyed, insisting that the eldest lady had not let her study with other ladies before, so she was illiterate. After the eldest lady made a fuss like this, the eldest lady asked the eldest lady to take care of the warehouse. When she went out of the account room that day, the eldest lady pushed the eldest lady, and not only those of us who followed the eldest lady were present, but even the gentlemen in the account room looked at it. If it weren't for the eldest lady's great fortune, she might have been toppled that day......"

Mother Liang said it like a river, and the maids and women around her also nodded vigorously.

Xiao Lingxiao stood in the distance, although she could hear what they said, but she didn't care at all. When the eldest lady fell down that day, Xiao Lingxiao knew that she was deliberately leaving a word, and it seemed that since then, she has begun to prepare for today's scene.

After hearing this, Xiao Shuyong stomped his feet angrily, "I, Xiao Shuyong, have really done a sin!" How could such a beast be born! ”

Xiao Shumou saw that his eldest brother was really angry, so he hurriedly pulled him to the table and sat down, poured him a cup of tea, and told him to relax for the time being.

Xiao Shumou knows a little about Xiao Lingxiao and knows that this girl has that ruthlessness, so if you want to say that this matter must not be done by Xiao Lingxiao, Xiao Shumou does not dare to assert it like this. But looking at Xiao Lingxiao's calm and relaxed appearance, Xiao Shumou felt that there was something else hidden in this matter. The fact that the people are talking about it alone is very suspicious, as well as the small cloth bag with the medicine, and even the two old mothers who recognized those things at once, all make people feel strange.

Xiao Shumou followed this point and inquired before he knew that the things in the small cloth bag were not a novelty in the inner house at all, and the two old mothers were people from the old lady's side, all of them were full of experience, and the two quietly told Xiao Shumou that the things in the small cloth bag were prepared by a special person, and there was a doctor Hua in this imperial city, who was the most proficient.

After knowing this, Xiao Shumou immediately sent someone to find Dr. Hua, and when the family brought Dr. Hua to this courtyard, the middle-aged man with a big belly saw that the courtyard was full of kneeling people, and he was immediately frightened and weakened.

Entering the side room, Dr. Hua fell to his knees with a thud, and without waiting for anyone to ask him anything, he shouted loudly, "It's the maid under the eldest lady, called...... The maid named Bao Rong'er came to me and said that she was going to have an abortion without knowing it, villain...... The villain was obsessed with money for a while, and received three hundred taels of silver! Spare your life! Spare your life! ”

When Xiao Shuyong heard this, he was immediately so angry that he slapped the table, pointed at Xiao Lingxiao and Bao Rong'er behind her, and said angrily, "What else do you have to say this time!" ”

Bao Rong'er stepped forward, glanced at Xiao Shuyong, and said to Dr. Hua who was kneeling on the ground, "Doctor Hua, you raise your head and take a closer look, is there any Bao Rong'er you said in this room." ”

Dr. Hua raised his head in response, glanced around the room, confirmed it again with trepidation, shook his head and said, "No...... There is no ......"

Bao Rong'er raised the corners of her mouth to look at Xiao Shuyong, and snorted coldly, "How?" ”

Xiao Shuyong was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect that there would be such a play, didn't Bao Rong'er stand in front of him? But he actually said no, it was obvious that the person who bought something from him deliberately used Bao Rong'er's name!

Xiao Shumou thought about it, nodded and asked people to call in all the maids around the eldest lady, and asked Dr. Hua, "Do you see any of these people who you know Bao Rong'er?" ”

Dr. Hua glanced up, stretched out his finger to Haitang, and exclaimed, "She! That's her! ”

Haitang was startled when she heard this, and hurriedly knelt on the ground.

Xiao Shuyong took two steps closer in surprise, grabbed the begonia, and asked sharply, "Are you trying to harm the eldest lady?" ”

With tears in her eyes, Haitang shook her head vigorously, "Wronged!" Treat unjustly! ”

Xiao Shuyong couldn't help but say something, and slapped Haitang hard. Seeing this, Xiao Shumou hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

At this moment, a maid came in crying, and cried out anxiously, "The eldest lady is awake!" Sir, go and take a look, the eldest lady is awake! ”

As soon as Xiao Shuyong heard this, he hurriedly ran towards the eldest lady's inner room, and Xiao Huanxue also hurriedly followed.

Xiao Shumou looked at the begonia who was kneeling on the ground crying and the frightened Doctor Hua Da Da and snorted. He came to Xiao Lingxiao, saw that her face did not change, and asked in a low voice, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Xiao Lingxiao didn't answer and asked, "What does the third uncle think is going on?" ”

Xiao Shumou looked at Xiao Lingxiao's cold and deep eyes, and couldn't see what she was thinking in her heart at all.

"Did you do this?" Xiao Shumou lowered his voice and asked.

Xiao Lingxiao smiled indifferently, "I said no, third uncle, do you believe it?" ”

In fact, Xiao Shumou didn't believe it very much, but if this matter has developed to this point, if all the blame can be put on a little maid, it will be the best result. After weighing it repeatedly, Xiao Shumou really couldn't think of any other solution besides this method. It's a pity that such a little girl......

"Hmph, I didn't expect the third uncle to be such a person." Xiao Lingxiao saw through Xiao Shumou's thoughts, and sneered, "If you want to use a little maid to atonement for your crimes, it is indeed a way to get the best of both worlds, but unfortunately, some people may not be able to understand the kindness of the third uncle, but I am afraid that the third uncle is a villain in vain and will not get a good result." ”

As soon as Xiao Lingxiao finished saying this, she heard someone running to spread the word, and Xiao Shuyong asked several people in this side room to go to the eldest lady's inner room.

It stands to reason that especially with an identity like Xiao Shumou, he should never enter his sister-in-law's inner room, but today is a special situation, and Xiao Shuyong is also angry, so he let these people in regardless of etiquette.

The eldest lady lay on her side on the bed, crying like a tearful person, Xiao Huanxue sat beside the bed and waited, while Xiao Shuyong walked around angrily holding her shoulders.

After Dr. Hua and Haitang came in, they all knelt at the door in a proper manner, while Xiao Shumou and Xiao Ranjun also stood aside and did not step forward. Only Xiao Lingxiao, who has no taboos for being a daughter, came to the bed, with a smile on her face, and asked softly, "Is mother better?" ”

Xiao Huanxue glared at Xiao Lingxiao fiercely, and scolded coldly, "You don't pretend here!" If you hadn't been killed, how would my mother have ......?"

But before she could finish her words, she was stopped by the eldest lady, "Huanxue, don't talk to your eldest sister like this, isn't it that who did this matter has not yet been determined?" I'm sure your eldest sister wouldn't be so vicious. ”

The eldest lady deliberately bit the word "vicious" very hard, and after saying this, she covered her face with a champa and cried bitterly.

Xiao Shuyong pointed at Xiao Lingxiao, "You get away for me!" ”

Xiao Lingxiao straightened her waist, as if she was tired of watching this play, and said to the eldest lady in a cold voice, "Looking at my mother's appearance, there must be no big problem, my mother specially called us all here, probably to know who put such an abortion in your room, right?" ”

The eldest lady stopped her grief and nodded, "No matter what grievances there are, they have nothing to do with the child in my womb, I want to know who is so ruthless that even such an unborn child is murdered!" When this person is found, he will also ask the master and the third brother to make decisions for the unborn descendants of the Xiao family and severely punish the murderer! ”

Xiao Lingxiao sneered when she heard this, "Mother is not wrong at all, if someone wants to harm the child in the mother's womb, it is the heir of our Xiao family, and this person must be severely punished, no matter who she is." Speaking of this, she turned her head to look at Xiao Shuyong, and asked with a smile, "Father, I'm not wrong to say that, right?" ”

Xiao Shuyong was stunned when he heard this, and then said angrily, "That's right! No matter who it is, it must be severely punished! ”
