Chapter 155: What is she, it's not the turn of outsiders to worry about
Late at night, the southeast courtyard of the Ye family.
Hongliu knelt on the ground and trembled, Mrs. Ye and Young Master Ye's faces were condensed, and Knowles pointed to the tip of Hongliu's nose and asked sharply: "Who instructed you to harm Lan'er?" You entered the house at the age of five, and I personally picked you to serve by Lan'er's side, has Lan'er and I been a little bad for you for so many years? ”
Knowles was furious.
Everyone knows that the second room of Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion is not angry, Jiang Yunlan's status in her husband's family is not high, if Hua Rong doesn't go to Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion to report the news first, she may not be embarrassed by Mrs. Ye in the future.
"Second lady, it was really the young lady who asked the slave maid to find Miss Huarong, no one instructed the slave and maid, and the slave maid didn't think of harming the young lady!"
Hongliu insisted that it was Jiang Yunlan's order, and refused to confess who was behind the scenes.
Knowles was so angry that he wanted to hit the red willow, Hua Rong stepped forward to stop Knowles and reminded softly: "Second lady, the young lady is already a member of the Ye family, Mrs. Ye is a sensible person, she will definitely administer justice for the young lady." ”
If the daughter is married, it is useless for her mother's family to protect her, so she has to let her mother-in-law's family protect her.
Knowles listened to Hua Rong's words, and looked at Mrs. Ye with anger.
Mrs. Ye asked Hongliu: "What did the young lady ask you to do with this servant?" ”
"Mrs. Hui, the young lady trusts Miss Huarong very much, and she handed over her dowry shop to Miss Huarong to take care of before, and the young lady said that she was at ease when Miss Huarong was there."
Hongliu said and kowtowed heavily.
Mrs. Ye's eyes looked at Hua Rong with two more points of inquiry.
The dowry is the confidence of a woman to gain a foothold in her husband's family, Jiang Yunlan is willing to hand over the dowry shop to Hua Rong, and she really trusts Hua Rong very much.
Hua Rong was not flustered, looked at Mrs. Ye and asked: "After the slave maid came here, she found that in addition to the red willows in the courtyard, the young lady was serving the young lady with fresh faces, did the young lady only bring a dowry maid from the Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion?" ”
After being reminded by Hua Rong, Knowles immediately noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "What about Mother Li and Orchid?" ”
Mother Li is Jiang Yunlan's nurse, and she is the same sister as Knowles, and she treats Jiang Yunlan as her own.
Mrs. Ye didn't expect Hua Rong to ask about this, her eyes flashed quickly, and she said: "That old woman's hands and feet are not clean, and she was sent to Zhuangzi, and the maid named Orchid is also not at ease, and she has an affair with the little girl in the house, and she was sunk in the pond last year." ”
At the beginning, Orchid also warned Hua Rong not to be tempted by her master, to have delusions that she shouldn't have, and to live a peaceful life.
Hua Rong thought that Orchid could see through and nothing would happen to her by Jiang Yunlan's side, but she didn't expect her to end up like this.
Jiang Yunlan is not a person who will treat his subordinates harshly, if Orchid really likes that little guy, she can ask Jiang Yunlan to allow herself, why did she go to the step of fornication?
Hua Rong's eyes were filled with coldness, and she looked at Mrs. Ye and said: "Mother Li and Orchid have both worked in Zhongyongbo's Mansion for more than ten years, and nothing has ever gone wrong, and their deed of sale should still be in the hands of my wife, why didn't Mrs. Ye tell my wife when she sank the orchid into the pond?" ”
As a mother-in-law, you can discipline your daughter-in-law, and you can also set rules for the maid and mother-in-law brought by your daughter-in-law, but you can't do things too much, and it is taboo to sell or kill your daughter-in-law's dowry maid.
Mrs. Ye originally looked down on Hua Rong, but she didn't expect Hua Rong to be so sharp-tongued.
She pretended to be calm and said: "Family ugliness should not be publicized, and such a depraving thing should naturally not be too loud." ”
Is it to cover up the ugliness or to cover up the fact that the mother-in-law bullied her daughter-in-law?
Hua Rong's heart was like a mirror, and she returned to the original topic: "The young lady trusts Mother Li and Orchid the most, if they are here, naturally there is nothing to do with the slave maid, but after they arrived at the Ye family, there were accidents one after another, and the young lady really had no choice, so she handed over the shop to the slave and maid to take care of." "Look at Shula
The implication is that Jiang Yunlan was forced by Mrs. Ye to have no choice but to make this decision.
If Mrs. Ye wants to find fault in this matter, she must first clarify the matter between Mother Li and Orchid.
The Ye family is a scholarly family, and Mrs. Ye has always established a gentle and virtuous image outside, if people know that she killed her daughter-in-law's dowry maid, wouldn't her image of being in business for many years be ruined?
Mrs. Ye didn't dare to let Hua Rong continue to dig deeper, so she ordered her mother-in-law to slap the red willow, and waited for the red willow's face to be beaten into a pig's head before she said coldly: "There are stable women and doctors guarding the house, even if the young lady is not at ease, she should find her mother to accompany her, how can you find a servant, if you don't tell the truth, don't blame me for being unkind to you!" ”
"The slave didn't lie, the young lady really told the slave and maid like this!"
Hongliu refused to change his words, and was about to bite his tongue to kill himself after speaking, Hua Rong saw that something was wrong, and rushed forward in three steps and two steps, and unloaded Hongliu's chin.
Hongliu snorted in pain, and her eyes were full of resentment.
Hua Rong didn't care, looked at Mrs. Ye and said: "This maid refuses to tell the truth, but there are still so many people in the young lady's courtyard, she can always ask something, and Mrs. Lao called them all to ask, otherwise the second lady will be worried about the young lady's sleep when she returns to the house." ”
It was already early in the morning, and Mrs. Ye had been staying outside the delivery room since the afternoon, and she was already too tired to do so, and the little bit of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law between her and Jiang Yunlan would not look good on the table.
Mrs. Ye ignored Hua Rong, looked at Knowles and said: "Mother-in-law, I think this matter is this maid's uneasy and kind-hearted ghost, she has been caught, I will definitely not let people run, it is already very late, it is better to rest first, and then try it tomorrow." ”
Knowles was frightened by tonight's events, couldn't make up his mind, and subconsciously looked at Hua Rong.
Hua Rong said softly: "Mrs. Ye and Ye Gongzi can go to rest first when they are tired, and the slave can accompany the second lady to interrogate on their behalf." ”
Hua Rong didn't give up, Mrs. Ye frowned, glared at Hua Rong and said angrily: "What are you, the master speaks, is it your turn to interject?" ”
"It's not the turn of outsiders to worry about what she is!"
As soon as Mrs. Ye finished speaking, Jiang Yunhua took the conversation and stepped into the courtyard.
He was still wearing the dark brocade robe of the white sun, and the silver moire pattern refracted sparkling in the firelight, making his eyebrows and eyes cold and sharp as a sword.
Jiang Yunqi came straight to Hua Rong's side, ignoring the eyes of others, grabbed Hua Rong's waist, and said faintly: "The two families are married to make friends, my sister has only been married into the mansion for more than a year, and there is no cronies left around me, and my wife doesn't even let me ask, is it because I am no one in Uncle Zhongyong's mansion?" ”
Jiang Yunhua now has an official position, and he is no longer the young master of the past, and he can speak in the Ye family.
Mrs. Ye's face was a little ugly, and Ye Gongzi hurriedly explained: "Ah Xiao, things are not what you think, after all, Lan'er has just given birth to a child and needs to rest well, and it is not good to be noisy in her yard so late." ”
Jiang Yunhua didn't look at this sister-in-law, and asked rhetorically: "The huge Ye Mansion, can't you find a place that can be interrogated without noisy with my sister?" ”
