Chapter Forty-Eight: Reversal 1

Old Man Huo, who had been silent, suddenly spoke: "Just based on the words of a maid, it really doesn't mean anything. ”

"Then is it necessary to let Qing Shang suffer this kind of injustice?" Huo Changqing couldn't believe that his grandfather was on Huo Jiuge's side, it seemed that this girl's methods were very good, and she had changed her status in the old man's heart in just a few days.

The Qin family didn't expect this situation, she cried and muttered to herself: "Since I married into this Huo family, I have adhered to virtue and etiquette and respected the elderly; was thrifty, but he didn't expect that in the end, he couldn't even protect his daughter, and he was slandered in vain. If you had known that you should have taken a letter of resignation and let me take the baby home, at least not like now."

She seemed to be complaining about Huo Ren's inaction, but in fact she was putting pressure on Old Man Huo, she threatened to go back to her parents' house, just to tell Old Man Huo that if he couldn't handle it impartially, then she would spread the word about it, and she wanted the world to know that it was his partiality that squeezed out their second family.

Sure enough, after she cried like this, Old Man Huo, who valued the inheritance of family style, didn't dare to say anything anymore.

Huo Jiuge's eyes swept over their second room, and now they have pinched the weakness of the old man, and they are bullying themselves together, if they don't resist at this time, I'm afraid that they will get worse in the future!

"Listening to the meaning of my aunt's words, it seems that she doesn't plan to let me go?" Huo Jiuge tilted his head and asked.

Qin Shi was stunned for a moment, looking at Huo Jiuge's clear and playful eyes, her heart was empty for a while, but when she thought of the daughter in her arms, she was ruthless again, plus she was all her own people here, she was a little girl who was helpless, what ability could she have to escape from the palm of her hand?

"Where is Jiu Ge?" Qin wiped a handful of tears and said: "I just feel sorry for my Qingshang being wronged so much, the most important thing for a girl's family is reputation, if this matter is spread, what do you let the people in the capital think of us in the future?" ”

"But my aunt just said that she wanted to report to the official!" The corners of Huo Jiuge's lips hooked: "Aren't you afraid of making things bigger?" ”

Qin was stunned.

Huo Jiuge didn't give her a chance to explain, she continued: "And Mingyue's days of serving me have only been a few days, she was a girl from Ziwei Garden before, or aunt You personally gave her to me, have you forgotten?" ”

"I" Qin opened his mouth to refute, but he was afraid of revealing any horses.

"Of course, she is indeed the girl of my Hexiang Courtyard now, and I should bear the responsibility for making mistakes." Huo Jiuge raised Mingyue's arm as he spoke, and then rolled up her sleeves in front of everyone, revealing a large number of burns.

This scar has been around for a long time, and it shouldn't hurt anymore, but when Huo Jiuge raised her hand, he heard her voice crying in pain, and this voice was not pretended.

Everyone frowned and looked at everything, not understanding what she meant.

"Other people don't know about this scar, I think my cousin should know it very well!" Huo Jiuge asked at Huo Qingshang.

Huo Qingshang raised his head when he heard this, looking at the injury on Mingyue's hand, a cold sweat broke out on her hand, but her face pretended not to know anything.

"It seems that my cousin is really a noble person, how forgetful." Huo Jiuge sneered and continued: "But yes, after all, this scar doesn't grow on your body, of course you won't care about it." It's just that punishing subordinates like this, I'm afraid that spreading it will insult your reputation for kindness! ”

"You talk nonsense!" This time, the Qin clan couldn't hold back any longer, and she immediately interrupted what Huo Jiu Ge was about to say next.

How Mingyue's hand injury came about, she knew it clearly, but she didn't expect how Huo Jiuge knew about this matter, and now that she brought it up in front of everyone, it seems that she was prepared.

Huo Jiuge was not in a hurry, she stared at Huo Qingshang and said: "Originally, I wanted to save some face for my cousin, but since you are so obsessed, I don't have to cover it up for you anymore!" With that, she turned back to Mingyue and said, "Tell me all the injuries on your body clearly, don't hide anything, if I find out that you have lied, be careful about your family!" ”

Mingyue panicked, she didn't expect Huo Jiuge to threaten her family as well.

At this time, Huo Qingwu on the side couldn't stand it anymore, she said: "You threaten her with her family, and you still want her to tell the truth?" Huo Jiuge, I think the most vicious person is you! ”

"I haven't finished my sentence yet, and you know that I'm vicious? Do you have a part in this incident? ”

"You don't want to spew blood!" Huo Qingwu was poked in the heart and began to panic.

Huo Jiuge didn't care about her so much, she said directly to Old Man Huo: "Those of them who are subordinates, the most worried and easiest to be manipulated is their own family, so I dare to ask Grandpa to send someone to protect her family, so that no one deliberately threatens her and asks her to say these words to divide us!" ”

When she said this, her eyes deliberately glanced at Qin's side, and after she panicked, she already had a rough idea in her heart.

"Ridiculous!" Huo Ren said angrily: "A girl needs us to spend so much effort, can't we just hand her over to the yamen for trial?"

It seems that he really didn't know what the Qin clan was doing behind his back, otherwise he wouldn't have said such a thing.

After listening to his words, Huo Jiuge said: "Cousin is the pearl of your and aunt's palm, could it be that the bright moon jumped out of the crack in the stone?" If her parents knew that their daughter was working in someone else's house, and was framed and disposed of by the master's family so casually, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of my Rongguo Mansion if it was spread out? The son said: 'Do not do to others what you would not do to yourself!' You are an official, don't you know this truth? ”

As soon as these words came out, the whole room fell silent.

After a while, Old Man Huo spoke: "Just do what Jiu Ge said, and I will send someone to protect your family." He pointed to Mingyue and said, "At the same time, you must also tell the truth, so that you can save your family's life!" ”

Huo Jiuge's delicate face was illuminated by the sunlight falling from the window, and she opened her mouth and said to Mingyue: "Now no one dares to threaten you with your family, you tell everything you know, since you are from my Hexiang Courtyard, if I don't speak, no one will dare to do anything to you!" ”

Her words can be regarded as giving Mingyue a reassurance, at least she should not consider the safety of her family, as soon as she thought of this, she glanced up at the Qin family, and found that the other party was looking at her with vicious eyes, as if she only needed to say the wrong word, the other party could eat her into her stomach, Mingyue couldn't help but tremble.

At this time, Huo Jiuge walked to her side, cutting off her and Qin's sight, her thin figure was illuminated by the sun, the shadow was stretched out, the shadow wrapped the bright moon, and her cold voice came from above her head: "Now that I am your master, you must know that only I can protect you now!" ”

Her voice was like a heavenly sound, and Mingyue was rescued from hell.

Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone, don't forget to see the moon!
