Chapter 8 Peaks and Loops
Su Yu frowned, not understanding how this matter was related to the fourth daughter.
"Father didn't know, the eldest brother returned from a study tour in Jiangdu a few days ago, and specially brought the purple silk brocade unique to Jiangdu, which was originally going to be given to the old lady, but the old lady didn't like this color, so she gave it to the fourth sister, and only the fourth sister had this purple silk brocade." Su Wanqiu's words were clear and she smiled gently.
It's just that every word fell on Su Xueyi's ears, like a sharp knife, her face turned white in an instant, she lost her blood, and gritted her teeth and said, "Third sister, what do you mean by this?" Do you want to say that I gave him this purse? ”
"This purple silk brocade is so precious to you, if it wasn't given away by you, where could others have it?" Su Yunqian snorted coldly.
Su Wanqiu's thin lips were slightly curved: "Look at this person's appearance, he is just a shabby scholar, not to mention that this purple silk brocade is unique to Jiangdu, and the high price of this brocade alone is not something he can look up to, but I really can't think of anyone in our house who has this brocade except for the fourth sister." ”
Su Xueyi only felt that her fingertips were trembling, no wonder Su Wanqiu would give her the purple silk brocade, it was originally laid out here, this purple silk brocade was brought back by Su Jin, how much is it that they don't have the final say?
Her throat was a little astringent, and then her anger surged, and she stretched out her hand and pointed at Su Jin: "The purple silk brocade was brought back by the eldest brother, there must be more than one horse!" Big brother must be framing me! ”
"Xue Yi, it's sad for you to say that, I brought back a gift from Jiangdu to give you, but you think I'm trying to frame you." Su Jin's eyes were cold, "Since that's the case, why don't you send someone to check how many brocades I bought in Jiangdu that day." ”
The so-called verification is just empty words, Jiangdu Mountain High Road is far from saying, just because it has been so long, there is no way to verify.
Su Xueyi felt Su Yu's scrutinizing gaze fall on her, and her body trembled slightly, she didn't dare to imagine what would happen if she made her father and Chen Mu think that she had an unclear relationship with this man of unknown origin.
"Third sister, this purse is embroidered by your intimate body, soul and belly, and this person calls your maiden name, what does it have to do with me!" Su Xueyi bit the four characters of her body and abdomen very hard, and now she can only bite Su Wanqiu to death.
"Then call Qingyan up and ask." There was a trace of sorrow on Su Wanqiu's face, but there was a smile on her lips.
Su Xueyi looked at Su Wanqiu's calm appearance, and realized that Qing Yan could not come, otherwise this matter would definitely be more difficult to deal with, but she didn't have time to speak, so Su Wanqiu ordered Chu Yu to call Qing Yan to come.
After a while, the maid led Qingyan into the door, she lowered her eyes and saluted respectfully, and suddenly heard someone ask in her ear: "Qingyan, is this purse embroidered by you?" ”
The voice that spoke was gentle and light, and it was the voice of the third lady Su Wanqiu.
Thinking of the eldest lady's order that day, Qing Yan responded without raising his head: "Yes, it was the young lady who ordered the slave to embroider, saying that it was to be given to her sweetheart." ”
Su Yu's face sank by three points.
Su Wanqiu sighed lightly: "But where did you get this purple silk brocade?" The material of this purse is purple silk brocade. ”
Qing Yan was shocked, and suddenly remembered that day the third miss asked Chu Yu to replace her embroidery cloth with woven cloud silk, now I think about it, where is the woven cloud silk, it is clearly purple silk brocade, the third miss deceived her is just a subordinate, she can't recognize such a high-quality brocade, just waiting for this day to drag the fourth miss into the water.
She raised her head to meet Su Wanqiu's gaze, and saw that the eyes that were as calm as water were clear and transparent, looking at her like seeing through the world.
It turned out that from the very beginning, Miss San knew everything.
There was a fine cold sweat sliding down Qing Yan's forehead, but she only knelt on the ground and didn't say a word, because she knew that no matter what she said, the third lady would have a way to resolve it.
She had already seen everything, but she was arranged by the eldest lady and the fourth lady, just waiting for this moment.
"I don't know why my maid will embroider something on the brocade of the fourth sister, it seems that there must be a secret in this matter, but I am afraid that I will not be able to ask anything if I continue to ask like this." The corners of Su Wanqiu's lips seemed to bend upward.
Su Yu looked at everyone's faces, and his thoughts were inexplicable.
"Qingyan, is this brocade given to you by the third sister, she deliberately asked you to frame me!" Su Xueyi stared at Qing Yan closely, she really couldn't understand why Qing Yan was clearly her own person, why would she help Su Wanqiu frame herself.
"If I really want someone to frame you, why should I let this person keep shouting my name?" Su Wanqiu's eyes seemed to contain a deep coolness like night, turned to look at Su Yu again, and said, "Father, this matter needs to be carefully interrogated, maybe someone deliberately wants to provoke the relationship between me and the fourth sister." ”
Su Yu glanced at Qing Yan, who was kneeling on the ground, and said coldly: "Drag her out for severe interrogation." ”
Hou Mansion Pingsuri treats his subordinates very leniently, but there are also severe and terrifying punishments, Qing Yan has been in the house for a long time, how can he not know? She immediately stiffened and gritted her teeth.
Seeing that someone stepped forward to drag Qingyan out, he was stopped by Su Wanqiu: "Wait." ”
Su Yujian frowned, only then did Su Wanqiu mention that he wanted to be tortured and interrogated, but now he stopped it, he really didn't understand what kind of thoughts his daughter had.
"Qing Yan is my girl, let's start with this person first." Su Wanqiu raised her hand and pointed at the shabby-dressed man, and said lightly.
Hearing this, Qing Yan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but his fingers clenched tighter, it may not be a good thing to be exempted from a punishment now, and it is difficult to say what kind of situation he will face for a while.
The eldest lady's face changed, this man was just a shabby scholar, she promised him that day, as long as he did what she planned, he would be able to marry Miss Houfu, who would have thought that things would take a turn for the worse to such a point, if he was severely punished, he was afraid that this person would recruit everything.
Sure enough, before someone came up to drag him away, he cried out: "I was instructed to do this, and someone told me to do this!" ”
The eldest lady stood up suddenly, pointed at the man, and said angrily: "Dare to frame the young lady in my Hou Mansion, it is really bold, drag it out and beat it to death!" ”
After speaking, the eldest lady turned her head to look at Su Yu and said softly: "Master, after all, Gongzi Chen is still here, no matter what happens, let it go first, this person framed Miss Houfu and executed him directly, otherwise I don't know what kind of storm I will set off." ”
After saying this, Su Yu still didn't understand anything, and a coldness sank in his eyes at the moment, and he ordered lightly: "Lock him up first, and I will interrogate him personally in a while." ”
