Chapter 44: What Crime Did Yan'er Commit?
Xin Yuanwen didn't think much about it, and felt that the old lady had relented and released her in advance.
Thinking that she had been kneeling for so long without eating or drinking, she really should have gone to see it, so she came to Huilan Courtyard, but she didn't expect to hear Xin Rou'er's cry as soon as she came.
"Father, you'll find out when you go to see your mother." Xin Rouer wiped her tears and said.
Xin Yuanwen was puzzled, and entered the inner room with her, and saw Zhang Yunhui lying on the bed with a pale face.
"I've only been kneeling for two days, how did it become like this?" He asked with a frown.
Xin Rou'er cried even louder: "Father, mother, she...... She ......"
She couldn't stop crying, and she didn't say a complete sentence for a long time.
Xin Yuanwen looked distressed, and asked soothingly: "What's wrong with your mother, tell me well." ”
"Mother, she was carried out in the morning, and she was ...... at that time" Xin Rouer cried and told her what happened in the morning, and even described how miserable Zhang Yunhui's situation was, and Xin Yuanwen's eyelids jumped when she heard it.
In the end, Xin Rou'er knelt down directly: "Father, you must be the master of your mother, the ancestral hall is cleaned every day, how can there be rats if it is good, there are so many, it is obvious that someone deliberately put it in." ”
Xin Yuanwen was furious when he heard this: "Bastard, I am a dignified prime minister's mansion, this kind of thing will happen, and a place like the ancestral hall dares to put mice in it, I really don't know how thick the sky is, come here!" ”
Immediately, several subordinates walked in.
Xin Yuanwen instructed: "Gather all the people in the mansion for me, and I want to see who dares to pretend to be a ghost in my prime minister's mansion!" ”
"Yes." The subordinate said yes and went out.
Xin Rou'er's eyes flashed, and she suddenly stopped talking: "Father, my daughter has a word, I don't know whether to say it or not." ”
Xin Yuanwen slowed down his tone: "Rou'er, you say." ”
"It's such a father, and in the afternoon, the two maids from my sister's yard came here and said...... Said ......" Xin Rouer continued to speak and stopped, looking like she didn't dare to speak.
Xin Yuanwen's face sank, and he said in a deep voice: "What did you say?" ”
"Say...... It's a mouse that my sister let people put out. Xin Rouer said in a low voice.
"What!" Xin Yuanwen was shocked, and then he was furious: "Rou'er, you make it clear, is it really your sister's rat?" ”
Xin Rou'er's delicate body trembled, and she nodded in fear: "Yes, it was the two maids in my sister's yard who said it personally, because they were selected by their mother, and their mother was kind to them, so they ......"
She didn't finish speaking, but Xin Yuanwen also knew what was going on, he took several deep breaths, but he didn't suppress the anger in his heart.
"Come on, call the eldest lady for me!"
A glint flashed in Xin Rou'er's lowered eyes, and the corners of her mouth were slightly hooked.
When Xin Nianyan received Xin Yuanwen's summons, he was not very surprised.
She asked Xiao Candle to go to the Meditation Courtyard to find the old lady, and she went to the Yanyun Courtyard alone.
As soon as he arrived at Yanyun Courtyard, he met Xin Yuanwen's angry face.
"Father, I heard you're looking for me?" Xin Nianyan didn't know, and asked suspiciously.
"Get on your knees!" Xin Yuanwen slapped the table.
Xin Nianyan was stunned and knelt down honestly.
"You rebel girl, you can be punished!" Xin Yuanwen asked.
Xin Nianyan blinked, full of doubts: "Father, my daughter doesn't know what crime she has committed?" ”
"Sister, don't pretend, my father knows everything." Xin Rou'er frowned, said softly, then glanced at Xin Yuanwen, and continued: "After all, my sister is my father's daughter, although I grew up outside, as long as my sister obediently admits her mistakes, I think my father will definitely be light." ”
This is cleverly said, why Xin Nianyan will grow outside is not because of her reputation as a nemesis.
Xin Rouer is specially reminding Xin Yuanwen.
Xin Nianyan sneered in his heart, but said innocently on his face: "Sister, what you said is wrong, my sister doesn't know what she has done, how can she admit her mistake?" ”
Xin Yuanwen slammed the table, and the tea sets on the table were shocked: "Rebel girl, you still dare to quibble, you said, did you put the mouse in the ancestral hall last night?" ”
Xin Nianyan's eyes widened in surprise, and then shouted: "Father, my daughter is wronged, my daughter went to bed early last night, how could she go to the ancestral hall to release mice, and besides, my daughter has been timid since she was a child, let alone mice, I am afraid when I see insects, how can I still put mice in the ancestral hall, father, can you listen to others slander your daughter." ”
"Sister, did your father wronged you, didn't you count it in your heart, the people in your yard have already said that you let people go to the ancestral hall to release mice, your mother has always treated you well, closer than my own daughter, why do you hurt your mother like this." Xin Rouer said, covered her mouth with an embroidered handkerchief, and cried with a whimper.
Xin Nianyan was still surprised, and then full of sadness: "Father, it's really not his daughter who did it, it's rare that the father really doesn't believe in his daughter at all?" ”
She stared at Xin Yuanwen's eyes fixedly, which were full of injuries.
Although she had felt this man's partiality in her previous life, she still had illusions in this life.
I fantasize that he can trust his daughter a little more.
But obviously she was still expecting, Xin Yuanwen had no doubts from the moment she heard Xin Rouer say it was her, and she had already identified it as her.
Even though he met her hurt eyes now, he was only angry and angry.
Angry that she still didn't want to admit it at this time.
"Did you wronged you, go and call someone in your yard to ask, just know, come on!"
Outside, the housekeeper walked in.
Xin Yuanwen said: "Go and call all the people in the eldest lady's courtyard." ”
"Yes." The housekeeper agreed, and as soon as he went out, the old lady hurried over.
"What is being done, what is this doing? How did Yan'er kneel on the ground, this cold day, hurry up. ”
As soon as the old lady entered the house, she hurriedly stepped forward to help Xin Nianyan up.
"Grandmother." Xin Nianyan's eyes were already red, and as soon as she saw the old lady, tears fell instantly.
Originally, her face had always been bad, and her forehead was still wrapped in gauze, and now she is crying like this, how pitiful she looks.
"Good boy, get up, hurry, get up first."
Seeing Xin Nianyan being helped up, Xin Yuanwen said unhappily: "Mother, I'm interrogating her." ”
Xin Rouer also secretly clenched her fists, very unhappy in her heart.
The dead old woman is here to make trouble again.
Especially when she saw her so close to Xin Nianyan, she gritted her teeth in anger.
Obviously, she is the granddaughter who grew up beside her since she was a child, and it doesn't hurt for her to let her dear granddaughter go, but she is so good to a wild girl!
"Interrogation, interrogation, I don't know what crime Yan'er has committed, you even use the word interrogation!"
