Chapter 68 The Troubles in the Nie Mansion (9)

Chapter 68

Fang's eyes flickered, and she blamed: "So it's not sister Ying, but Miss Huo! This is out of style. If the two of you are really interested, mother will go to the Ningguo mansion for you." What's the point of talking about marriage and having a private meeting in the garden?"

Liu Fang clasped his fists and said shyly: "I couldn't help myself for a while, so I invited Miss Huo's family to come to the garden to enjoy the flowers, and made all the ladies laugh."

The ladies smiled awkwardly but said nothing.Although they are willing to show some face to the Nie family, it does not mean that they are blind, nor does it mean that they will follow the Nie family to slander the young lady who is the direct daughter of Duke Ningguo.

If it is said that in the flower hall, there is still three points of credibility in Liu Fang and Huo Qi's private exchange, but now there is only one point left.

As the saying goes, if you catch a thief, you will get the stolen goods; if you catch an adulterer, you will catch a cheater.Liu Fang kept saying that he was with Huo Qi, but where was Huo Qi?Didn't Liu Fang and this maid talk in vain?Compared with the certain thing like seeing Liu Fang and Nie Ying flirting in the garden with their own eyes, the affair between Huo Qi and Liu Fang seems confusing and always difficult to convince people.

It's just that Liu Fang, an idiot, why dare to talk about Huo Qi?
They still can't figure it out.

Mrs. Liu smiled lovingly: "Why didn't you see Miss Huo?"

"Is Mrs. Nie looking for me?"

A crisp voice sounded not far away.

Huo Qi smiled, followed by Lefeng and Aunt Zhang, walking towards the crowd.She had already changed out of the clothes that had been splashed with tea, and she was wearing a lotus-blue beanie instead. Although the color was dull and old-fashioned, she still looked graceful and graceful.

She walked in front of everyone and blessed her body: "Just now I went to the flower hall and missed all the ladies. Fortunately, a servant girl in the house guided me to find the garden. If Madam Nie troubles me, I hope you will forgive me."

"How can I, an aunt, be willing to blame you?" Mrs. Liu took Huo Qi's hand, smiled gently, and said to herself, "It's just that I heard Brother Fang said that you were enjoying flowers alone with him just now. If You two are really interested, the elders will take care of things for you, it is inappropriate to meet in private after all."

Huo Qi took out his hand and glanced around blankly at the ladies around him, his eyes asking silently: "What about admiring flowers alone? My daughter only saw Mr. Liu once in the flower hall, and all the ladies also saw it. , where did the private meeting come from?”

Liu's smile froze.

The ladies in the background laughed so sophisticatedly, they also figured out some ways, today they said they came to visit, but in fact they were just used as knives.Inside, a lady who had long been displeased with Liu's way of life came out to tease: "Miss Huo, a maid said that she saw you and Mr. Liu privately giving and receiving in the garden!"

When Huo Qi heard this, he was horrified: "How is this possible?"

Liu Fang originally looked at Huo Qi and smiled, but he never thought that Huo Qi had completely changed his rhetoric. His heart was half cold and half hot, and thinking of the flattering appearance in Aunt Zhang's bedroom just now, he might be coaxing him for a fool.He is not fake, but he hates women climbing on his head to plot against him even more.

While thinking about it, he couldn't help jumping out, and the original three-pointed mouse look became even more mean: "Miss Huo's face changed so quickly! She was spending time with me just now! She even said she agreed. Let me come to propose marriage! How come you don't recognize anyone in a blink of an eye!"

These words made Huo Qi laugh out loud.She looked at the ladies around her, and then looked at Liu Fang as if she were watching a monkey show: "Young Master Liu, are you trying to make fools out of the ladies present here? What if I say in front of everyone that I have feelings for Mr. Liu?" If you are deeply in love, will the ladies here believe it? Huh?"

When the ladies heard this, they all laughed.

Liu Fang was just a toad in front of Huo Qi. If Huo Qi said that he liked Liu Fang in front of them, they would just feel that Huo Qi's brain had been kicked by a donkey.Moreover, just now Huo Qi shouted at Fang in front of many people, clearly showing his disdain for Liu Fang. Even the children in the village might not believe what Liu Fang said.

Liu Fang was so angry that he couldn't think of any words to refute, he just felt remorseful.He originally thought that Huo Qi was just a yellow-haired girl who couldn't do any tricks, but he didn't want to change his face and become faster than anyone else, it's really hateful!
Huo Qi pretended to be completely unaware and said with a half-smile: "Mrs. Nie, Mr. Liu is a little confused. You are of course very smart. My maid accidentally spilled my tea just now. Aunt Zhang led me to change clothes because she was afraid of catching the cold. So I followed Aunt Zhang to the kitchen to ask for a bowl of ginger soup, and I was always with Aunt Zhang."

Aunt Zhang glanced at Huo Qi and nodded: "That's right, Miss Huo has been with me all the time."

Aunt Zhang's face was quite calm, but her head was lowered deeply, she didn't dare to look at Mrs. Liu's expression.

She was intercepted by Huo Qi on her way back to the bedroom from the kitchen.

She was wary of Huo Qi from the bottom of her heart, but after hearing Huo Qi's reasonable words, she realized what kind of situation she was in.

Liu's plan today is to use the aphrodisiac effect of nutmeg to bring Huo Qi and Liu Fang together.If Huo Qi really loses his innocence, the Ningguo government will investigate, it is Aunt Zhang who hid the dirty things to seduce Nie Qin in her bedroom, but in the end, Huo Qi accidentally told him that Liu Fang just passed by the door of the house and was arrested. Huo Qila went in and pestered her.The reason why Mrs. Liu asked her to lure Huo Qi to the bedroom was entirely for the purpose of framing her.

Although Mrs. Liu has given her some face these past few years, she may have already made up her mind to kill, but she has been waiting for the opportunity to use her pawn until there is no drop left before throwing it away.

If she followed Huo Qi's words today, she would get a large sum of money and fly away, and the mountains and rivers will still be at ease.But if she doesn't want to, Huo Qi will take this nutmeg plant and report it to Mrs. Liu. In order to cover up her dirty plan, Mrs. Liu will definitely kill her.

She has no children under her knees, and now that the mistress wants to kill her, there is no reason to stay in Nie's house.With the choice in front of her, even a fool would know that it is wise to help Huo Qi.

Aunt Zhang testified, and everyone present believed Huo Qi's words.

"I believe you." Seeing Huo Qi's sharp teeth, Mrs. Liu's face sank for a long time, and her silver teeth were about to be crushed. "But I, an aunt, can't completely deny what Brother Fang and this maid said. , now that you all insist on your own opinions, it's not easy to handle..."

"Is this the maid who said that?" Huo Qi moved his eyes to the kneeling maid and spoke quickly and urgently, "Since you said you saw me and Mr. Liu together with your own eyes, let me ask you, what is my private life?" Did you wear the blue dress from before or this lotus-green dress?"

The little maid has never even met Huo Qi, so how can she know what color clothes she is wearing?She panicked and trembled out a few words: "Lotus...the lotus is green."

Huo Qi sneered: "That would be interesting. In such a short period of time, I have to go to Aunt Zhang's bedroom to change clothes, then go around to the garden for a private meeting, and leave before the second lady comes. Could it be that I'm a student? Got a pair of wings?"

The little servant girl didn't seem to have thought that Huo Qi, a charming lady, would be so difficult to deal with, and immediately changed her words hastily: "The slave girl just said wrong, it's the blue clothes!"
