Rui'er said calmly: "Yes, when our girl was taken away by the government after dawn, that is, the day when the confession of the calligraphy and painting held by the Hu steward himself was exposed to the world!" ”

She gave her a cold look and turned to open the door.

Nie Shi was stunned for a moment, and said in a lost voice: "What kind of hand-drawn charge?!" ”

Rui'er turned around, "Do you think there is only one confession that has just been torn up?" That's a big mistake, our girl has an exact copy of the original written by the steward himself. There are many other things besides this. If the transcription is not enough to believe, then when the girl hands over the note to Fu Yin, even if Mrs.'s father suppresses the matter, I'm afraid that He Mansion will not be able to spare you? Besides, the five girls are going to get married, although Uncle Feng Yuan is marrying the house, there is a shade seal, if something bad happens this time, the five girls can't even fill the house, and Mrs. will lose a lot! ”

Nie Shi shuddered, and looked at her with wide eyes, now Rui'er in her eyes is no longer a cheap maid, she is the messenger sent by Liuli to ask for her life, and she is her life and death judge!

"You, what do you want me to do?" Her voice was still shaking, but she was trying to suppress it.

Rui'er tugged at the corners of her mouth: "Madame is so smart, what should I do?" Our girl doesn't ask you to do anything else, what you can do, our girl can naturally do too. Of course, it would be better if someone could come out and admit the crime of poisoning and ensure that the girl came out innocent. ”

Nie Shi was shocked, "This, this crime is very big, where will anyone be willing to come out and confess?" ”

Rui'er smiled: "Doesn't this depend on Madame's ability?" ”

Nie Shi was stunned, and was speechless.

After the end of the day, the day began to lighten, and because of the decision of the night before, the doors of each room were opened very early, and the old lady in the main courtyard woke up with the arrival of the old men one after another. Qingshang dressed her, and she asked, "Yesterday, how happened to the nine girls?" Wu Yinzhong and Liuli said that she was poisoned, and the spirit she was holding on to collapsed like a mountain. But she still remembers the way Liuli cried and told her the truth before she fell asleep, but now when she gets up, she thinks of her.

Qingshang opened her mouth, but she stopped talking, Biyun came over and said, "The old lady doesn't know, the person who poisoned has now been found out, it is the ninth girl." Last night, the old lady and the old men had already discussed, and at dawn they sent someone to inform the government to get someone. I'm afraid I'm already on the way. "Ya * Wen * Yan * Love * First * Fa"

The old lady was stunned, "The government? ”

Qingshang sighed slightly and nodded: "Yes, the eldest lady and they tried their best to determine that the ninth girl was the murderer, and they also collected all those poisonous bird's nests, and prepared to take them to the government as evidence." ”

The old lady fell silent, not knowing whether she was surprised by the result or surprised by the speed of the eldest lady and the others.

Qingshang lowered her head and continued to wait for her to get up.

Saying that the ninth girl is the murderer, she doesn't believe it, she has been getting along day and night for more than a year, how can she not see that the ninth girl is really looking forward to the old lady's health and longevity? How could she possibly be poisoned? But she was soft-spoken, and these words were not appropriate for her to say.

The old lady got out of bed, walked two steps, and suddenly said, "You go and invite Wu Yinzhong to me." ”

Qingshang looked up at her, saw her solemn expression, and knew that she had something important to do, so she nodded and said, "Yes." "Withdrew.

Biyun watched Qingshang go out, walked to the couch with the old lady and sat down, and said, "Doctor Wu tested those bird's nests several times yesterday and confirmed that all of them were poisonous. The nine girls are really a little more disgusting, and other people are just fine, don't she know how the old lady treats her? transferred her from the small courtyard to the main courtyard, and allocated her another yard to live in, and let her worship Mr. Guo as a teacher, no matter what, she should remember the kindness of the old lady, but she didn't expect her to be so vicious, and even murdered the old lady! ”

The old lady looked ahead and didn't speak for a long time. At the end, he said: "People's hearts are unpredictable, how can there be people in the world who are not selfish?" Holding the tea in his hand, he stared at it and said, "How difficult it is for people to save people." How easy is it for people to harm others? ”

Biyun looked at her for a moment, then suddenly smiled slightly, got up and went out with the copper basin.

In the outer hall, the three brothers and the old lady are already here, and there is such a big event in the house, such a rebellious girl, everyone has taken leave from the court, and they must focus on dealing with this matter.

The Yu family, the Liang family, and the Qi family naturally came, because they all knew that the Nie family was violently beaten by He Xiuyuan yesterday, and they thought that they would not attend, so no one expected her. Unexpectedly, the meal was served, and someone from the door came to report that the fourth lady had arrived, He Xiuyuan looked disgusted, but the three Yu family all expressed surprise. When he saw Nie's hanging color and entering the door, Liang couldn't help but be happy to make a joke, seeing He Xiuyuan's face, and remembering that what happened now that she couldn't laugh arbitrarily, she finally held it back.

Nie went into the back room and saw the old lady, so he came out and sat down at the table. Seeing that He Xiuyuan next door didn't want to look at her more, he couldn't help but lower his head. At this time, He Xiuyuan said: "Why haven't the people from the government come yet?" Isn't something wrong? ”

Everyone raised their heads when they were asked, He Pusong has always been loyal, and he couldn't bear to sweep the face of He Lili, who was the eldest brother, so he glared at him: "The old lady is here, the fourth brother should not talk too much." ”

He Xiuyuan endured his temper and was silent.

Yu wiped his mouth and said, "Even if something goes wrong, we can also send someone to escort it over in person." In short, the evidence is conclusive, even if she has wings, she can't escape punishment. ”

Nie opened his mouth, but looking at He Xiuyuan's appearance of wanting to immediately cut off Liuli's head to vent his hatred, he didn't dare to speak out.

"Aunt Su is here."

Hongmei came in to report, and Aunt Su then came in.

He Lili and other brothers grew up with her, and they never shied away from her, and when they saluted everyone, she said to the old lady: "The poisoning of bird's nest, has it really been determined that the ninth girl is the real murderer?" ”

The old lady's brows moved, he glanced at He Xiuyuan and Yu, and nodded.

Yu frowned and looked at Aunt Su: "What do you have to say?" ”

Aunt Su gave her a sisterly salute and said: "The ninth girl has now joined the He clan, no matter what her background is, she is already a descendant of my He clan, and the housework is in the court, even if she is corrected, it is not the honor of my He Mansion to pass it on." I'm not speaking for the ninth girl, but I still have a few questions, and I want to ask everyone in public, if there is anything wrong, please don't blame my sister. ”

Yu was impatient, but it was inconvenient to sweep her face, so he said, "You ask." ”

Aunt Su nodded, and said to the old lady: "I have to invite the ninth girl to come over and ask in person." ”

The old lady groaned and nodded: "Go and bring someone over." ”

Aunt Su saw someone going out, and hurriedly said: "I have already asked Yu Wei to take it with the order of the old lady, and now that the person is on the way, please forgive the old lady!" ”

The old lady was stunned, but she cut first and then played, and walked around twice, but she couldn't.

Yu Shi glared at Aunt Su fiercely, and Aunt Su turned around and blessed her. The Liang family didn't know what Aunt Su was going to do, so they looked at each other at the moment and sat up. Nie Shi seemed to be in good spirits, his eyes were shining, and he stared at Aunt Su without blinking.

The dark tide is surging here, and as soon as the door is dark, Hongmei will say: "The ninth girl has arrived." ”

Liuli was brought in, she hadn't been cleaned up for a day and night, and her makeup was a little messy, but her spirit was excellent.

When Aunt Su saw her, she turned to the old lady and said, "As we all know, the ninth girl only came to the main courtyard in the spring of last year, and the old lady has been taking bird's nest every day since the summer of the previous year. Second, she stayed by the old lady's side day and night, how could she have come to concoct poisonous bird's nest? ”

After finishing the sentence, everyone present couldn't help but hiss, and the old lady stroked her beard, but she couldn't listen.

Aunt Su continued: "The amount of bird's nest for more than a year is not small, and the arsenic used will not be a small amount. Moreover, this bird's nest was not directly sprinkled with arsenic, but was tested by Dr. Wu, but was made by soaking in water containing arsenic and then drying it. ”

The old lady hummed and said slowly: "Then according to you, you can clear her name with this?" ”

Aunt Su looked back at Liuli and said, "Meiyin is not here to clear anyone's name, and it is not for her to redress her grievances by bringing Nine Girls here without authorization, but I can't bear to see everyone regret it while being sad." Nine girls may be murderers, maybe not murderers, this is not something we can convict her in a few words, family ugliness should not be publicized, I think, it is time to invite the nine girls out, let's make an eyebrow in private. If it wasn't her in the end, wouldn't He Fucao's reputation for human life spread? ”

The He Pusong brothers looked at each other, and finally looked at He Lili, after all, this is his daughter, and he should have an attitude towards what to do.

He Li looked at the old lady steadily, but for some reason, he didn't speak.

Nie saw that everyone was silent, thinking that Aunt Su had come forward to speak, but it was not appropriate for him not to speak at this time, so he dared to say at the moment: "I agree with Aunt Su's opinion, this matter cannot be decided casually, if the ninth girl is blamed for the mistake and the real murderer is indulged, wouldn't it be bad for the old lady and the old lady?" It is better to close the door and find out first. ”

Liang glanced at her in surprise, thinking that it was not Nie who was sitting next to her, but a person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

He Xiuyuan also glared at Nie,
