137 Cover-up
Feeling that her fingertips were sticky, as soon as Mrs. Xiao lowered her head, she saw that the blood standing on her fingers had already coagulated into a blood scab.
Her eyes tingled and her stomach churned.
The flustered ladies were not far away, and it was too late for her to turn back and wash her hands.
So, she desperately rubbed her robe a few times, trying to rub the blood scab off.
It's just too late, so she has to hide her hands in her sleeves.
She laughed and walked towards Wu Qingyue, who was the closest.
Her tone was as kind and kind as before: "Qingyue, why did you get here?" Is it a dish at a banquet that is not to your taste? ”
On Wu Qingyue's always dignified and virtuous face, some small cracks appeared, and anxiety and uneasiness leaked out of the cracks.
"Mrs. Xiao, I'm here to find my sister Qingshan. She didn't come back for a long time, and I was afraid something had happened to her. ”
Mrs. Xiao smiled: "In the Hou Mansion, what can happen?" Those ladies, they all came out to find people? ”
Wu Qingyue said obscurely: "We heard that someone died in the house......"
Mrs. Xiao couldn't hold back any longer, so she grabbed Wu Qingyue's wrist in a hurry, and asked sharply: "Who said that the dead man was dead?" Who's spreading rumors? ”
Mrs. Xiao's expression was too fierce, Wu Qingyue trembled with fright, and was about to break free of her hand, "Madam, my hand hurts." ”
But Mrs. Xiao was like a demon, and she couldn't listen to anything.
Wu Qingyue's personal maid hurriedly stepped forward to help: "Mrs. Xiao, please let go of my young lady's hand!" ”
The pulling and pulling here has attracted a lot of attention.
Mrs. Li, who was a little older, came over with a group of people and asked Mrs. Xiao: "Please also ask Mrs. Xiao to tell the truth, who died in the Hou Mansion?" How can we feel at ease by being so secretive? ”
There are also guests who have not found their own girl, or their handmaiden, who have nodded their heads repeatedly.
As soon as Mrs. Xiao's hand was released, Wu Qingyue immediately retracted her hand and took two steps back.
Mrs. Xiao glanced at the few glances staring at her, and pulled out a smile, "It was a misunderstanding, it was my sixth brother who fainted, and I don't know how to spread it, so he became a dead person." It's because I'm not strict with my subordinates, and I'm worried about you. ”
In any case, the identity of the dead person is really unbearable, and it must not be known to the group of ladies in front of him.
And when someone died at the feast, it was very bad luck to spread the word.
Her words are false and true, and she can fool the past.
Wu Qingshan came out of the garden path and saw a group of people gathered here.
She saw Wu Qingyue, whose face was not very good-looking, and hurriedly trotted over.
"Sister, what's wrong with you?" Wu Qingshan looked at the red marks on Wu Qingyue's wrist and felt distressed.
Caihe said angrily: "It's not that Mrs. Xiao got it, Mrs. Xiao ......"
Wu Qingyue scolded: "Shut up! That's what I taught you? ”
Caihe closed her mouth aggrievedly and said no more.
In just a few words, as long as Wu Qingshan is sure that the culprit is Mrs. Xiao, it is enough.
Her sister is a fairy-like figure, how can she be blasphemous?
She was holding back a breath of anger in her heart, the Xiao family's own housework was not clear, and she dared to offend others?
She already had an idea in her heart, and in an innocent voice, she raised her voice: "Huh? How can Mrs. Xiao say that there are no dead people? But as soon as I saw it, the descendants of the Xiao family were carrying a person covered with a white cloth outside, wasn't that person dead? Why else would you want to be covered with a white cloth? ”
She pointed to the path in the garden, "Well, you'll see it after a while." ”
Mrs. Xiao sank her face, "Second Miss Wu, you may have seen it wrong." ”
Wu Qingshan didn't hear the warning in Mrs. Xiao's tone, what kind of identity is Mrs. Xiao? Dare to threaten her?
The anger of the backer behind her was enough to make Mrs. Xiao frightened.
So she said again: "I was not mistaken! If you don't believe it, you'll see! ”
Mrs. Li glared at Mrs. Xiao uncertainly, and then hurriedly walked towards the path pointed by Wu Qingshan.
Seeing this, the others followed suit.
Mrs. Xiao choked, at this moment, she couldn't stop it if she wanted to, so she could only forcibly suppress her anger and ask Wu Qingshan: "Why is Second Miss Wu so aggressive?" Don't you know the truth of forgiving and forgiving? What's in it for you? ”
Wu Qingshan snorted and said mockingly: "Madame has time to talk to me, it's better to think about it first, how to suppress the scandal of the Xiao family." There is such a big scandal, not to mention how the Xiao family is spurned outside, maybe it will also attract Long Yan's anger. ”
A woman who is canonized as a princess naturally has a good character.
But on the eve of the marriage, Xiao Yiyi hugged and hugged a man in broad daylight, and he couldn't figure it out, not to mention the saint, even the prince of Yun would be furious.
When the time comes, there may be a war.
Wu Qingshan laughed maliciously, when Xiao Yiyi became a scourge in the history books and was spurned by thousands of people, when she went out, there would be indignant people who would smash eggs at her!
Mrs. Xiao's face turned pale, "You know everything?" ”
Wu Qingshan replied with a smile.
"You know what? I want to hear about it too! Xiao Yiyi's curious voice sounded.
Xiao Yiyi asked herself, at this moment she was purely in the mood to listen to gossip.
Hearing her voice, Wu Qingshan jumped up like a ghost.
Stared at Xiao Yiyi, her face turned pale: "Why are you here?!" ”
According to her assumption, Xiao Yiyi made a big mistake and should be locked up by the Xiao family.
Xiao Yiyi was puzzled by her question: "Why can't I be here?" ”
"You're not...... You're not ......."
"What am I?"
Shen Yunjiao held Mrs. Su's hand steadily, and said leisurely: "Is Second Miss Wu hungry?" Why don't you go to the banquet and use some dishes? ”
Wu Qingshan was shocked, "What about Yiyue?" ”
Xiao Yiyi: "Yes, what about the fifth sister?" ”
Mrs. Xiao's figure shook, and she almost couldn't stand.
Although Xiao Yiyue's ugly story will spread all over sooner or later, she is very reluctant to say it from her mouth.
She forced herself to say, "Yiyue is a little uncomfortable, fall asleep." Go to the feast. ”
Saying that, she coaxed Xiao Yiyi with the gentlest voice in her life: "Yiyi, today you are the protagonist, and those guests will bother you to entertain." ”
Xiao Yiyi was simply flattered, "I know." ”
Wu Qingshan has been secretly observing Xiao Yiyi's expression, and saw that she looked as usual, not like she had been hit.
What the hell is going on?
Old Madam Su didn't want to go back to the banquet, so she simply took Shen Yunjiao and a few people to Old Madam Xiao.
As soon as I entered the house, I heard Mrs. Xiao throwing things.
