Chapter 130: The Gentleman is Frank
The Lu family already knew, so naturally he was not much surprised, and only said: "My daughter-in-law also heard what Mama Cui said about this matter, and she also sent Zhiqing and Zhilan to find the girl before she came, if you find someone, you can naturally tell the difference!" ”
She did not justify that it had nothing to do with her, but first proposed to find the key person "Xiaocui", such a calm attitude made people unable to find a trace of flaws and mistakes.
Mrs. Lu was very satisfied with her daughter-in-law's performance, but some people couldn't let it go so lightly, Hu was only worried about his daughter, and his mind couldn't think of much, but Lu and Lu Zhaoan were extremely sober.
Lu Zhaoan didn't want to say anything, but Lu said, "Sister-in-law, what do you think about this matter?" ”
Qin Shi glanced at this sister-in-law, although she was not good at intrigue, but it did not mean that she was a fool, the suspicion in these words was too obvious, she knew that these two brothers and sisters were not well-intentioned, but pretended not to know and said: "If someone really frames Jiaojiao, naturally I can't let it go!" ”
Lu didn't expect that the Qin family not only did not defend himself, but advocated severely punishing the mastermind behind the scenes, that kind of frank and unrestrained appearance looked very eye-catching, as if it was ...... It seems that through this woman, she saw Lu Wanqin's shadow again.
People like them show themselves open-minded in the face of all conspiracies and all frame-ups, as if they are real gentlemen, but because they have enough strong forces behind them to support them, unlike her, who has to rely on their own efforts to fight for everything since she was a child. If she wants to gain her mother's trust and her father's love, she must keep playing tricks and tricks, otherwise she doesn't want to get involved at all.
This kind of injustice has been with her all her life, because the more envious, so the more jealous, until jealousy turns into hatred, and then out of control, she must crush this kind of person who is naturally superior to herself, and step on the soles of her feet, she will be happy, and she will feel that she has won.
So those who love to play tricks seem to take it for granted, while those who are frank and unbridled become hypocritical and piercing show-offs.
The Lu clan was unwilling to be dodged by the Qin clan like this, so he continued: "Sister-in-law, when you say this, it means that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with you?" ”
The Qin clan glanced at the Lu clan calmly and said, "This is nature, do you still need to confirm it?" Jiaojiao is also what I watched grow up, and she is not worse than her own daughter, what mother would frame her daughter? Take a step back and say, even if I don't feel sorry for Jiaojiao, I won't ignore the reputation of the Lu family in vain, I am not the daughter of the Qin family, but the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, I have long been integrated with the Lu family, Lu Jiarong, I am honored, and the Lu family is humiliated, then I am humiliated! ”
Qin's words were loud, although the tone was always tepid, but it had the power to persuade people's hearts. Even Lu Qingyun was impressed by his mother, in his cognition, his mother has always been gentle and gentle, and she seems to be extremely afraid of things, but at this moment, he saw the power in his mother, which is a kind of power that overcomes rigidity with softness.
Lu's face was a little sneering, but he still maintained his calmness, and said slightly apologetically: "Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong, I didn't doubt you, I just ...... Jiaojiao has such a big thing, everyone feels uncomfortable, if you can't find out who is behind the trouble, it's really going to make people sleep, don't you say? ”
The Qin family nodded in agreement and said, "This is natural, it's just the ins and outs of this matter, please tell Jiaojiao in detail, and you have to ask the son of the Zhu family, only in this way can you find out who is in the way!" ”
Mrs. Lu also felt reasonable, but Lu Jiaojiao panicked, she was afraid that her secret would be exposed, so she cried again and said, "I don't want to mention it again...... Whining...... Grandmother, Jiaojiao is so scared! ”
Lu Dahai, who had been protecting Lu Jiaojiao, was also unhappy, and choked up: "Auntie, Jiaojiao has been overly frightened, do you have to make such a shameful thing public?" ”
Hu Shi naturally felt that it was inappropriate, how could she be reluctant to say such a painful thing in public, so she said unhappily: "Sister-in-law, I respect you as the eldest sister-in-law, so I don't want to blame you for making such an abrupt request, but Jiaojiao is my daughter, I don't want her to be hurt more, they are all women, they naturally know how important their reputation is to themselves, she is already scarred, why do you bother to make up for a few more knives?" ”
The Qin family didn't panic, and only said to the old lady: "Mother, my daughter-in-law has no intention of letting Jiaojiao be hurt, but since someone dares to frame the daughter of our Lu family, if you don't find it out, won't it make people think that my Lu family is empty?" ”
Old Madam Lu nodded steadily, and said: "What Rong Niang said is reasonable, and there is no need for many people to be present, if you invite this subordinate out, just leave your family members present, and you won't embarrass Jiaojiao!" They are all relatives, what can't be said in front of relatives? ”
Now the Lu family and the Hu family have nothing to say, the old lady's decision has always been unacceptable to be overturned by others, and they are also conscious. And they all felt that Lu Jiaojiao was framed, and they were not afraid to ask something.
Several people were silent, and the subordinates came out one by one, and only the Lu family and the Lu family were left in the room.
Lu Jiaojiao has calmed down, anyway, as long as she insists that she knows nothing and is framed, who can do anything to her? As for Zhu Changrong, anyway, he already has a very bad reputation, and no one will believe his words.
So Lu Jiaojiao polished the matter, and then sobbed and said it, in the process, the grievances and pain were naturally expressed very well, which made her mother and brother feel distressed.
Lu Dahai shouted even more impulsively: "This Zhu Changrong, I will definitely kill him!" ”
Lu Zhaoan's eyes forced back Lu Dahai's anger, making him bow his head angrily, but he made up his mind to teach Zhu Changrong a hard lesson, if he caught someone to frame Jiaojiao, that person would be disabled if he didn't die!
Lu Qingyun pondered for a moment and asked, "Jiaojiao, what did Xi'er discuss with you, and she chose to make an appointment in such a remote place?" Wouldn't it be better to go to your room? Why do you want to go alone, and why do you want to break up the girls around you? ”
This is the biggest suspicion, what is the secret of the two girls? Thinking of what Bai Mu Hibiscus said in the afternoon, he suddenly realized that this matter was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface.
Lu Jiaojiao was stunned by the question, and secretly blamed Lu Qingyun for being too shrewd, so she said: "I just thought that something happened to Xi'er, so I didn't care about it much, so I went in a hurry, and I didn't care about taking the girl!" ”
Lu Qingyun's eyes stared at Lu Jiaojiao, making it almost difficult for her to continue, this eldest brother's eyes were too sharp, as if he could see her through.
Lu Qingyun didn't say anything but said, "This thing is really strange, where is Xi'er?" ”
As soon as the Lu family saw that the matter involved her daughter, she was a little apprehensive, she would not suspect that Bai Yunxi framed Lu Jiaojiao, after all, the relationship between the two sisters was very good, and there would be no such hatred.
But listening to Jiaojiao's far-fetched words, she felt very worried, so she said: "Xi'er just had a stomachache, I let her rest!" ”
Lu Qingyun didn't pursue it further, and continued: "Today's house is chaotic, even Jin'er was almost designed, when she met us in the garden, she said that a girl tricked her Chen'er into fainting, she was about to go to see it, and the direction she was walking in is now Yunshui Pavilion......"
When Mrs. Lu heard this, she was shocked into a cold sweat, who the hell is this, and she still wants to attack Jin'er? When she thought that Jin'er might also fall for the trick and end up with the same fate as Lu Jiaojiao, she felt shocked.
"Who does Jin'er say that girl is?" Old Madam Lu hurriedly asked.
Lu Qingyun shook his head and said, "She didn't say who it was, she didn't mention her name, and she probably didn't know her!" ”
Qin Shi opened his mouth and said: "If it is Xiaocui, it should be that Jin'er doesn't know her, she has only been in the mansion for three months, and she is only a third-class girl, Jin'er has never seen it!" ”
Lu Jiaojiao was already frightened when she heard this, at this time, it would not be good for her to bring up the matter that Bai Mujian was almost fooled, if she continued to climb, I was afraid that this shrewd big brother would think that he had set up a situation by himself.
Lu Qingyun continued: "It doesn't matter if it's not, if someone can find it, Jin'er will naturally recognize it, but a girl will naturally not frame her master on her own, and our own family will naturally not set up this kind of poisonous plan that will do no harm to ourselves, then we have to ask what is going on with Zhu Gongzi, no one should know better than him, right?" ”
When Lu Jiaojiao heard this, her eyes lit up, and she immediately said: "Maybe he bought Xiaocui and wanted to attack me and Cousin Jin'er, but my cousin was lucky to meet the eldest brother and them, but I ......"
Saying that, Lu Jiaojiao shed tears again, the more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, otherwise there would be no other explanation, it must be Zhu Changrong's ghost who coveted her beauty, so she wanted to attack herself.
Old Madam Lu said: "If it is really that Zhu Changrong is making trouble, even if he makes trouble in front of the saint, I will never spare him!" ”
When Lu Zhaoan heard this, he panicked, his daughter suffered a loss, and he was not completely indifferent. But when he thought of making trouble for the emperor to know, he naturally couldn't hide it, where would his face go when the time came?
So he hurriedly stopped and said: "Mother, don't do it, the so-called family ugliness can't be publicized, if it is spread, not only will the Lu family be disgraced, but Jiaojiao will no longer be able to live!" ”
Mrs. Lu is a strong character, she can't rub sand in her eyes, in her opinion, although a woman's reputation is important, but being bullied to this point, how can she endure it.
The Zhu family thought that there was a Concubine Zhu supporting them in the palace, so they became more and more unscrupulous, and even her Lu family dared to provoke, and even wanted to touch her precious granddaughter, is it tolerable, which is unbearable?
So he said: "Do you think face is important, or is your daughter's happiness important?" ”
"This ...... The son is not for the sake of face, after all, Jiaojiao suffered a loss in this matter, and I am also distressed, but I have to take care of Jiaojiao's face, if the news of her innocence being ruined spreads, she will become a laughing stock! Lu Zhaoan hurriedly explained.
Lu Jiaojiao also said approvingly: "Grandmother, Jiaojiao doesn't want to make a big deal about this matter, I can't be known about it, otherwise, ...... Otherwise I won't be alive either! ”
Saying that, he held his face and cried, and Lu Dahai and Hu Shi hurriedly comforted him.
Old Madam Lu was not willing to be reluctant, so she could only say: "In this case, you decide for yourself what to do!" ”
