Chapter 71

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became, and she kicked her to the ground, and shouted: "Well, you little bitch, I thought how sincere you are to me, but it turns out that you are acting like you are saying something! Let me ask you Why are the maidservants in the yard dressed so plainly? Is it something you did behind your back? You said that I can’t see anyone who looks better than me, and whoever gets into trouble will be unlucky! Did you say that?”

"I, I..." Xiaohong turned pale with fright, and said tremblingly, "Ma'am, Ma'am, I never said that, I didn't say this! Ma'am, someone must be framing me behind my back, you must Believe me, I never said anything like that!"

Mrs. Ya was in a hurry, she would not listen to her explanation, so she asked someone to bring a pot of fire.The furnace was burning red, everyone trembled when they saw it, knowing that Mrs. Ya was really angry today, everyone was walking on thin ice.

"Mrs. Wang, come out!" Madam Ya shouted.

Mrs. Wang stood up tremblingly, and Mrs. Ya asked: "The maids and women in the yard are under your control, now who is it that you say made these people dress like this, as if they were going to a funeral? Means, curse me to die? Even if I die, I will find you a good master who will love you so much, right?"

Mrs. Wang glanced at Xiaohong, changed her mind, and said, "Ma'am, this is what Miss Xiaohong said. The last time Madam just brought back that girl named Dieyi, she asked Miss Hong to slap her mouth. The girl asked Miss Xiaohong why, and Miss Hong said, it was because the Dieyi was more handsome than his wife, so the lady couldn’t hold anything, so she made the Dieyi! All the girls in the yard were afraid that the lady would take it I vented my anger, and discussed about taking away the jewelry and wearing clean clothes!"

"This, this, you are talking nonsense, when did I say such a thing!" Xiaohong shouted at Mrs. Wang, "Who did you receive the favor to spread rumors here and provoke the relationship between me and my wife?"

Mrs. Wang said: "Miss Xiaohong, I am an old woman, who can I accept favors from? What I say is the truth!" Then she went to see Mrs. Ya, and said: "Madam, what I said is all the truth, if If you don't believe me, you can ask the girl in the yard!"

Mrs. Ya glanced at the maids, and saw that they all nodded, expressing their acquiescence.

Xiaohong burst into tears anxiously, "Ma'am, there are people who want to frame me, I, I don't know why they say that, I just said that the colorful clothes they wear are not good-looking, which affects Madam's mood, and I didn't tell them Dressed so plainly, they are, they are..."

"What is it?" Madam Ya sat back on the chair, looked at Xiaohong coldly, there was no trace of sympathy or trust in her eyes! "I have always trusted you so much. I didn't expect you to spread rumors outside, ruin my reputation, and even want to overwhelm me in front of the prince. You are so brave!"

"Ma'am, I, I didn't..." Xiaohong called out anxiously.

Mrs. Ya stared at her eyes and shouted: "Wang Pozi, pull out her hand and see what she is wearing, it is hiding!"

"Yes!" Mrs. Wang and several maidservants pressed her down, took off the bracelet from her wrist, and handed it to Mrs. Ya.

Mrs. Ya looked at Xiaohong with a sneer, and said: "What else do you have to say? I thought you were really wronged, but from this point of view, it's true! Where did you get such a good bracelet? Tell me !"

Xiaohong kowtowed and said, "Ma'am, listen to me, Dieyi gave it to me, saying that I was serving in front of Madam, and she wanted to serve in the yard, and wanted me to speak nice words in front of Madam. I will see her." Recently, I have behaved a lot, so I promised to say good things for her, and she said that in order to thank me, she gave me this bracelet!" While talking, she cried: "Madam, what I said is the truth, it was really Dieyi who gave it to me. My, if you don't believe me, you can call her here and ask her face to face!"

Mrs. Ya took a look at the bracelet, and said with a sneer: "If she really gave it to you, you are so easy to deceive when you think I am? Is this an ordinary bracelet? She gave it to you, do you know how much this bracelet is worth?" How dare you take money under any status? If she really wanted to serve me, why didn't she give it to me if she had such a good thing, instead she gave it to you, you must have stolen it!"

"No, no, I didn't, ma'am, I know you're angry with me, but I really didn't do that. If you don't believe me, you can call Dieyi and ask!" Xiaohong shouted repeatedly.

Mrs. Ya asked Mrs. Wang to call Dieyi to come over. Lu Dieyi had heard it a long time ago and was waiting at the door. As soon as Mrs. Wang came out, she greeted her and asked, "How is it? How has the matter developed?"

Mrs. Wang whispered: "It's almost done. Now Mrs. Ya is furious, saying that your bracelet was stolen by Xiao Hong. Now let me find you to confront you!"

Lu Dieyi nodded and said: "I see, let's go in!" The two hurried in, Lu Dieyi knelt on the ground and said, "Dieyi has seen Madam!"

Mrs. Ya hadn't seen Lu Dieyi for a long time. She saw a girl dressed in the costume of a third-class maid kneeling in front of her, calling herself Dieyi, and said coldly, "Look up!"

Lu Dieyi raised her head tremblingly, glanced at Mrs. Ya cautiously, then quickly lowered her head and said, "I don't know what orders Mrs. Ya asked Dieyi to come in?"

Mrs. Ya picked up the teacup on the table beside her and took a sip of tea, then asked, "Do you know the girl beside you?"

Lu Dieyi took a look and said, "I know her, she is the lady's personal maid, Miss Hong!"

When Xiaohong heard Lu Dieyi say that she knew herself, she said excitedly: "Ma'am, you heard me, she said she knew me, I didn't lie, I didn't lie!"

Lu Dieyi said: "Just now I asked Miss Xiaohong to give my mother the jade bracelet from our family. I wonder if Madam received it?"

When Xiaohong heard this, her eyes widened in shock, and she said, "What are you talking about, this, didn't you give this bracelet to me? How dare you talk nonsense in front of Madam?"

Lu Dieyi said with an innocent face: "Miss Hong, this is our ancestral treasure, how can I make fun of it, I want to ask my wife for help, so I took it out, but I am a maid serving outside the yard, I can't see Madam, so I ask you to hand it over to Madam. How could I give it to you? Although I am a servant girl of the palace now, I was also the daughter of a wealthy family before. Even if you have searched the entire imperial capital for such a bracelet, I might not be able to find it either, if I hadn't really asked Madam for something, I wouldn't have been willing to show it!" After speaking, he went to look at Madam Ya and said, "Madam, I'm not wrong in saying this, you are well-informed, you should Knowing the value of this bracelet, do you think I would give such a valuable thing away casually?"

Xiao Hong hurriedly stepped forward to tear Lu Die's clothes, and cursed: "It turns out that you, the little bitch, wanted to kill me!"

Mrs. Ya sternly ordered the wives to pull her away, picked up the jade bracelet and asked: "You said this bracelet was given to you by her, hmph, do you really think that you are born to wear such a good thing? Do you know that this bracelet was bestowed by the current Empress Dowager to several wives, and there are only ten bracelets in the entire imperial capital, what is your status, she will give it to you?"

After listening to Mrs. Ya's words, Xiaohong knew that she was framed by Lu Dieyi, but now Mrs. Ya was angry, and she knew that she would not believe what she said. Now she can only wait for Mrs. Ya to calm down, Just to clarify. "Madam, don't be angry, I know I'm wrong! I shouldn't make you angry, but you should understand my sincerity to Madam, I was brought by Madam when she didn't enter the mansion, you should know very well My, I just love to be brave when I talk about it, and I treat my wife like my own sister in my heart. I have no complaints about how my wife will beat me and punish me today. I just want to ask my wife to calm down and listen to me. !" Xiao Hong kowtowed to Mrs. Ya as she spoke, until her forehead was scratched, and then Mrs. Ya slowly said: "Get up!"

Seeing that Mrs. Ya seemed not as angry as before, Xiao Hong hurriedly stood up and said, "Madam, are you not angry anymore?"

Madam Ya sneered, "What do you think?"

Xiaohong was startled, and saw Mrs. Ya yelling at her: "Put Xiaohong, this dog slave who has no master in his eyes, wants to take over his master's property, eats and slanders his master, and burns it in the stove. Throw it into the backyard and reflect on it!"

Looking at the red fire beside her, Xiao Hong was so frightened that she lost her soul, and cried: "Madam, Madam, please forgive me!" If you let you go so easily, what prestige will there be in the future? Since you admit that you said those words, I have not wronged you, come here, burn this bitch's mouth, and drag him to the backyard!" "Madam, Madam, please forgive me. If you hurt me, who will entertain you in the future..." Xiaohong said unwillingly.

Madam Ya glanced at Lu Dieyi, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Don't think that no one treats me better than you! Dieyi, raise your head and tell her, will you be loyal to me?"

Lu Dieyi nodded and said, "Yes, I will always be loyal to my wife!"

Xiaohong was completely desperate, she knew that Mrs. Ya was really disappointed in herself, before she could say another word, she was pulled aside by the old woman, and she was really pressed on the fire, she was burned and screamed, her voice was miserable The sound resounded throughout the courtyard.

A row of maidservants were so frightened that their legs trembled, and even the timid ones were so frightened that they knelt on the ground.

Mrs. Ya said impatiently: "Take her to the backyard!" "Yes!" Several servants carried Xiao Hong and walked out.

Mrs. Ya said coldly: "If anyone of you dares to gossip behind my back in the future, this will be the end!" She said and led Lu Dieyi into the room.

Although Lu Dieyi also played tricks in the Lu Mansion before, she was still much worse than Mrs. Ya. Today I watched her order someone to burn Xiaohong with the fire, and I was so scared that I was covered in cold sweat. There was a mistake in the middle, and it wasn't Xiaohong who was hot, but her!

She held the tea tremblingly, and walked towards Mrs. Ya step by step, not even daring to lift her head.She remembers Xiaohong's words clearly. Since Xiaohong said that, there must be such a thing. She keeps herself by her side, and she can destroy herself by finding any reason in the future. It seems that she has to speed up her plan put into action! "Dieyi, do you think my punishment for Xiaohong today is a bit heavy, after all, she has been following me!" Madam Ya asked intentionally or unintentionally.

Lu Dieyi was startled, and hurriedly said: "No, no, I feel very good!"

Mrs. Ya glanced at her, and said with a smile: "Miss Lu, there are no outsiders here, you sit down! Oh, my girl is good at everything, but I can't control my mouth. I bought her from the street and kept it with me all the time. Yes, although she sometimes speaks without consideration, she is loyal to me. Today she said that you gave the bracelet to her, and you said that you gave the bracelet to me. I am still hesitating So, are your words true, or her words true?"
