Mrs. Ma's beautiful eyes were as big as copper bells, her eyes were full of surprise and anger, the rouge on her cheeks seemed to have lost her color suddenly, and her jade face turned pale, "You, what do you say? That cat has snow-white hair, and a pair of emerald ......eyes."

Hearing this, the master and servant looked at each other, Xu Lianshuang twisted her eyebrows very keenly, and a sense of uneasiness arose in her heart.

Seeing this, Xue Hainiang knew that Xu Lianshuang must have noticed it, and hurriedly pointed the finger at the maid beside her, she took a step forward and smiled, "Mrs. Ma is a distinguished guest of the Xue Mansion, now that the distinguished guest asks you, do you dare to be lazy?"

Xue Hainiang was born with bright eyes and bright teeth, looking forward to the brilliance, although she had a more cold posture when she was not smiling, but when her red lips were raised, she was really beautiful and dazzling, however, the tactful and clear voice invisibly revealed a deterrence and coldness, which was really scary but couldn't take your eyes off.

"The slave didn't dare. Back to Mrs. Ma's words, the cat is just as you described, Madame. The maid was frightened, and subconsciously told the truth.

However, when she blurted out, Xu Lianshuang's face beside her turned a little whiter, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

Before the master and servant could come to their senses, Mrs. Ma had already shouted, "Presumptuous, what a bold, do you know that the cat that died under your hands was rewarded by the current Queen Mother, and it was a royal gift, but you can easily insult it?"

After that, before Xu Lianshuang confessed, Xue Hainiang knelt down, gasped, and said tremblingly: "Insulting the royal gift is a capital crime at the least, and it is implicated at the worst...... Is this true, madame?"

Xu Lianshuang was originally from a small family, and her courage was also very small, and she was nothing more than a small trick to play some of her daughter's family, but now when she is involved in such a big crime, how can she not panic?

She held up a silk handkerchief to cover her lips, and her face was frighteningly white with powdered fat, "This, this-you, you are so bold, dare to kill the cat given by the Queen Mother...... You, this is how I protect you. ”

The maid Xu did not expect Xu Lianshuang to stage such a scene, her beautiful eyes were as big as copper bells, and her pupils were tumbling with astonishment and resentment, and she didn't care about her humility for a while, so she opened her mouth and said: "My aunt is so cruel and vicious, that cat is obviously you hit the stove in your hand and knocked the cat into the pool, why is it that it is now pushed on the head of the slave maid." ”

After that, for a while, everyone's eyes subconsciously moved to the stove in Xu Lianshuang's arms.

Having said this, Xu Lianshuang calmed down, her lips rose, and she generously spread out the stove in her arms.

"There is no blood stained on it, you accuse me of hitting the cat on the head with this object, if it is really as you say, why is this stove so clean?" Xu Lianshuang breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, fortunately, she did not exert too much force, or perhaps it was God's blessing, but this stove did not leave any traces.

When everyone heard this, they all had some thoughts in their hearts.

Mrs. Ma snorted coldly, her sharp and sharp gaze alternated between the master and servant for a long time, and finally said: "Auntie, even if it is your maid who did it alone, as you said, if it is not your explicit indication, how dare she mess around?"

Mrs. Hou beside her also echoed coldly, "Yes, it's just a maidservant, if there is no master to express it, who gave her the courage?"

Mrs. Ma suddenly looked at Xue Hainiang and said in a deep voice: "Miss Xue, you are from the lady of the main room of the long house, and you are the master of the eight classics, and now Aunt Xu has committed such a great rebellion and disobedience to the royal family, how should I deal with it?"

Xue Hainiang's heart trembled, Mrs. Ma's words seemed to be asking, but in fact they were a warning, if she dealt with Xu Lianshuang on the spot today, she would also turn a blind eye to expose the matter, but if this matter came to the Queen Mother, I am afraid that it would not be as simple as dealing with Xu Lianshuang.

Xue Hainiang had an idea, and then turned sideways and commanded the little maids behind her: "Come on, Aunt Xu does not abide by dignity, does not abide by family law, and commits the following crimes, and is escorted into the firewood room and grounded." ”

Xu Lianshuang's face suddenly turned as pale as a ghost, her beautiful eyes widened, and she hissed in defense: "No, Xue Hainiang, how dare you deal with me in private!"

Xue Hainiang didn't see the anger, but smiled like a flower, her posture was dignified, she lowered her head slightly, and said softly: "I am from the main room, the master of the Xue Mansion, and my aunt has violated the family rules, how can I deal with you?"

After saying that, she looked at the maid who was kneeling beside her and shrunk and trembled, and said softly: "Go to the old lady, and report what happened today truthfully, and don't deceive in any way." ”

Seeing that Xue Hainiang did not punish her, the maid was grateful to Dade, crying bitterly, and for a while, the grudge against the Xu family deepened.

With the departure of Xu and the maidservant, this farce finally came to an end.

Mrs. Ma smiled on her face, walked to Xue Hainiang's side, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The eldest lady is really kind......

Asking the maid to report this matter to the old lady must be much more ruthless than others, not to mention that the maid is a witness, and besides, the maid must now hate Xu Lianshuang to the core.

Xue Hainiang's lips rose, and she smiled lightly: "Hai Niang is stupid, I really don't know what Mrs. means by this, Madame, go home with peace of mind, Hai Niang will definitely arrange it properly within a day, and give Mrs. a satisfactory answer." ”

Mrs. Ma's lips were lightly raised, evoking a touch of cool sneer, "No matter how satisfied you are, Mrs. Ben's cat can't come back......"

She paused, her eyes were like pools, as if they were filled with venom, and she looked at Xue Hainiang inexplicably, "Miss Xue Bingxue is smart, you should know that being smart is good, but if you are too smart, you will inevitably get burned." ”

Xue Hainiang lowered her eyes, still smiling lightly, "Hai Niang, thank you Madame for your advice, Hai Niang must remember." ”

Seeing this, Mrs. Ma also knew that it was useless to say more, so she snorted coldly and brushed her sleeves away. As soon as this Mrs. Ma left, the lady and the official lady who came around her followed closely, because of this kind of thing in the Xue Mansion, the Xu family was temporarily imprisoned in the firewood room, and the full moon banquet was unhappily dispersed.

When Xue Jingzheng rushed back to the Xue Mansion after handling official business, it was already three o'clock in the hour, but he didn't expect that as soon as he stepped into the house, he heard that his concubine had committed something and had been imprisoned in the firewood room.

Out of pity for his concubine, Xue Jingzheng was so anxious that he didn't even change his court clothes, so he went straight to the firewood room, but he didn't think that the old lady of Tanyuan was already waiting in front of the firewood room, saying that the old lady invited him to go to Tanyuan.

Xue Jingzheng had already estimated and guessed that this matter was very important, hesitated for a moment, and finally rushed towards Tanyuan with pity and anxiety.

And at this moment in Tanyuan, Mrs. Xue was already waiting in the hall with the Li family, Xue Hainiang, Xue Qiaoling and other people.
