The one who sent back the maid Hongyue was the steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites.

The steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites stood in the flower hall of the Dongping Uncle's Mansion and talked eloquently: "It's a coincidence, the villain's unsatisfactory son went to visit the Jinshui River last night and met this red man on a flower boat. Miss Yue, this girl cried and called for help, saying that she was the servant girl next to the second wife of your house. The dog ran away when she was soft-hearted. If it was really the servant girl of your house, it would be considered a good deed..."

The steward said while scanning the masters in the flower hall, and said with a smile, "Old Madam and Madam recognize someone and see if it's your maid?"

The second wife, Mrs. Xiao, looked extremely ugly. If the steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites was not there, she would like to beat the shivering girl kneeling on the ground with a stick and throw it to the mass grave.

This damn maid, how could she still have the face to come back after falling into a pickled place like Jinshui River, she should plunge into the river and die before she can clean up. Now being led to the door, what should others think of her?

A wife of a noble family, her personal maid was trapped in a brothel, and it is conceivable how ugly other people's comments are.

In case the incident of her being robbed is discovered again... Xiao Shi was shocked, and fear rose from the bottom of his heart.

I don't know what bad luck has happened this year, it's really not going well.

Mrs. Feng's face was even uglier than Mrs. Xiao's. Looking through the smiling face of the servant of the Ministry of Rites, she seemed to see endless ridicule and schadenfreude.

It turns out that the disaster of Xiao's robbery is not over yet, no, maybe this is just the beginning...

Madam Feng suddenly flashed this thought in her heart, and became more and more determined.

She stretched out her hand and picked up the pastel tea cup at hand, blew off the floating tea leaves and took two sips, and put the tea cup down slowly, with an unpleasant tone: "You also believe the nonsense of a girl who sells laughing women on a flower boat? This person is ours. I don’t know, and there is no way that our uncle’s house has a maid to sell to Jinshuihe, please take this girl away quickly.”

For the servants who have made a big mistake, it is not uncommon to ask Yaba to sell them, but serious people will not sell people to such pickled places. Doing so is unruly and immoral, and it will make people gossip behind their backs. . What's more, Hongyue is not as simple as being sold to a brothel, but it is related to Xiao's reputation.

In any case, one cannot recognize it!

As soon as Mrs. Feng spoke, Xiao Shi's high-hanging heart temporarily fell.

It's true that people can't recognize it, but it's inappropriate for her to say this.

The matter was originally aimed at her, and it was too late to avoid suspicion. Besides, Hongyue was still the only daughter of Mammy Xiao. She opened this mouth today, and Mammy Xiao, a confidant who had been with her for many years, was probably going to lose her mind.

The girl kneeling on the ground suddenly raised her head and looked at Madam Feng in disbelief. What she saw was an expressionless old face, and even every wrinkle on her face was ruthless.

She stared blankly for a while, as if thinking of something, she knelt down and rushed towards Xiao: "Madam, the maid is Hongyue—"

Xiao Shi's face was sullen and he said nothing.

Madam Feng took a cane and paused for a while: "Kick this nonsense woman out!"

The two old women rushed up immediately, covering Hongyue's mouth and dragging it out.

Hongyue struggled desperately, her big eyes staring at Xiao Shi.

Xiao Shi silently closed his eyes.

The steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites smiled: "I didn't expect it to be a misunderstanding. The villain apologized to the old lady."

"It's okay, Young Master Ling is also doing good deeds." Old Madam Feng knew that the other party was here to slap her face, but it was not easy to show her face.

The other party is holding Hongyue, and if there is a big trouble, it will be a sharp sword hanging over the head of the Uncle Dongping.

"I don't know where the servants of your house took the girl? The girl was bought by the dog. Since it's not from your house, the villain should take it back. To be honest, the dog is quite satisfied with the girl. , it's not suitable to be a concubine in a place like Jinshuihe, it's okay to have a room..."

Old Madam Feng smiled reluctantly, and said to the woman beside her, "Go get that girl back. Since it was bought by someone from the Shilang's mansion, it would be bad if there was a bump in our mansion."

After receiving the wink from Mrs. Feng,

The old woman groaned in her heart, and her back was instantly covered in cold sweat.

"Um?"

The old woman came back to her senses and walked out quickly.

The steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites waited with a smile on his face, and in Mrs. Feng's eyes, it was clear that he was watching a joke at the Uncle's Mansion.

Madam Feng sneered in her heart.

If you want to use the red moon to hold the Bofu to watch jokes, the abacus is too good!

I don't know how long it took, the old woman rushed over in a panic, and said with a white face: "Old Madam, that girl suddenly broke free and jumped into the garden pool. When she was caught, she was out of breath..."

Old Madam Feng shook her head again and again, and sighed helplessly at the steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites: "This is really a pity. I don't know how much Young Master Ling spent to redeem the person. Since the incident happened in the uncle's mansion, he should be the uncle's mansion. People bought..."

The steward secretly said that the old woman was cruel enough, but she didn't smile and said: "The old lady is very polite, the villain can't accept the money, and the person will not take it away, so it should be the funeral expenses for the poor girl. The villain said goodbye. ."

"Walk slowly."

When the steward of the Shilang Mansion of the Ministry of Rites left, there was a sound from Xiao Shi, who accidentally knocked over the tea cup at hand.

Mrs. Feng glanced at Mrs. Xiao and frowned deeply: "You can handle the rest yourself, don't make jokes!"

This Xiao family is getting more and more unfortunate. The misfortune of the eldest grandson and the second granddaughter may be her fault. It seems that the family can no longer be handed over to her.

Mrs. Feng didn't even think about handing over the stewardship rights to the third wife, Mrs. Guo.

No matter how bad the Xiao family is, the second son is his biological son, but the third son is a concubine.

Madam Feng had this thought again in her heart, and instructed her confidant to call all the masters of the palace to Cixintang.

Ah Man is a well-informed person, Jiang Xi has long known what happened in front of him, and when he came to Cixin Hall, his face was calm, but his heart was a little annoyed.

As a result, going out is delayed.

Seeing that everyone was almost there, Mrs. Feng said, "There has been a lot of trouble in the house recently. From today onwards, all of you should stay at home and don't go out again. If there is something else, please ask me for instructions."

Jiang Si secretly said a bad sound, and followed Jiang Qiao to come down.

There are still rumors about the Hongyue incident, but fortunately there is no evidence of death, and people are talking about it as a joke.

Some believe it, some scoff at it.

Although Mrs. Feng was annoyed that the Uncle Mansion was being chewed on by the world, she knew that this was the best situation, and she annoyed Mrs. Xiao again in her heart.

After hearing about this after returning to the mansion, Mr. Jiang Er was annoyed at the Xiao family first, and then in the big room.

It was all the trouble caused by Jiang Zhan, and the families headed by the Minister of Rites seemed to regard the uncle as a thorn in their side.

In a very bad mood, Mr. Jiang Er went directly to the study.

And Xiao's confidant, Mrs. Xiao, knew about the death of her daughter.
