She didn't expect that this hairpin was the eldest lady's dowry, nor did she expect that Su Qingyan would come up with such a plan. Looking at the hairpin on Su Qingwen's head, she only felt that the hairpin became more and more annoying, and she even wanted to put it away. Pull out the hairpin and throw it away.
Qingyan looked at Su Qingwen's appearance and said aggrievedly, "Second sister, if you really like my mother's hairpin, you can tell me and I will bear the pain and give it to you. Why bother to find someone to steal it?" ?”
Su Qingwen looked at Qingyan with a confused face, and then looked at Chai Yiyun.
Chai Yiyun looked at her daughter's gaze, bowed and said to Su Jia, "Mother-in-law, I didn't know this was the fourth girl's hairpin."
Su Jiashi looked at Chai Yiyun's appearance and tapped the ground with her cane, "Chai Yiyun, how rude are you? Yan'er is also a young lady from my Su family. Why do you want to steal her things?"
Chai Yiyun's teeth itched with hatred. After she glared at Su Qingyan, she looked at Su Jia's shepherd and said respectfully again, "Mother-in-law, my daughter-in-law bought this hairpin from a servant. She didn't know she was The fourth girl’s things.”
As Su Jiashi spoke, she glared at Chai Yiyun and scolded, "Don't let me find that girl!"
Listening to Su Jia's serious voice, Chai Yiyun could only ask Lanzhi to find Xiaocui. The only chance to escape now was to push Xiaocui out as her scapegoat.
When Xiaocui saw Lanzhi, she knew that the matter had been exposed, but she still didn't understand why Su Qingyan would blame her for this matter, but it was true, after all, it was the person who betrayed this courtyard from the beginning. she.
When Xiaocui saw Qingyan, she thought of what happened yesterday. She knelt on the ground and begged to speak, "Old madam, the hairpin was given to me by the young lady. I did not steal it."
"How presumptuous! You dare to lie in front of the old lady." Zi Zhu looked at Xiao Cui and scolded her coldly, "That is the lady's favorite hairpin. How could I give it to you, a girl like us?" I have never received such a reward.”
When Xiaocui looked at Su Qingyan, she found that her eyes were as cold as ice, as if everything about her had been known for a long time. She looked at Qingyan's appearance, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "Old madam, have mercy on me! I'm sorry!" Please forgive me, I didn’t mean to steal the lady’s things.”
Xiaocui was a maid in the center, and she was unwilling to let Chai Yiyun bear any consequences, but Su Qingyan did not expect this.
Su Jiashi looked at Qingyan, smiled and said, "Yan'er, this girl is yours, what are you going to do with her?"
Qingyan looked at Xiaocui on the ground and said coldly, "Drag her to Yingshuang Courtyard and give me fifty sticks. Zi Zhu, you want Qingdai to execute it for me, and tell the servants that if anyone dares to betray me, Ying Shuangju’s fate will be worse than Xiaocui’s.”
Chai Yiyun stood aside and never begged for mercy. Xiao Cui had a look of despair on her face. She had already seen what happened to Aunt Ruo last time. She rushed away from the crowd and hit a stone on the side, but her eyes were always filled with hatred. Staring in the direction of Chai Yiyun.
The hairpin incident finally ended with Xiaocui hitting a pillar and dying, and Su Qingyan also got the hairpin back.
After returning to Yingshuangyuan, Qingyan kept playing with the hairpin in her hand, and her eyes couldn't help but feel a little colder when she looked at the hairpin.
"Miss, look at the way the third lady suffered a loss today, it really makes people feel relieved. They usually encourage the servants to bully you." Zizhu looked at Qingyan's appearance and said seriously, "But this slave has never done anything to the lady. Find a happy expression on your face.”
"Zizhu, you know what I'm thinking." Qingyan played with the hairpin in her hand, "But this hairpin will still be in the corner from now on. I will never touch anything Su Qingwen wore again."
"Don't worry, slave." Zizhu looked at the hairpin in Qingyan's hand with a look of regret.
"Fengqing, go and tell your aunt that the plan can be implemented tonight. After all, Chai Yiyun is also ready to take action." Qingyan curled her lips as she spoke, "I don't want Third Auntie to be too anxious to wait."
As soon as Qingyan finished her words, she heard Huang Cen's words saying that Mei Xue, who was beside Chai Yiyun, had brought a snack. Qingyan asked Huang Cen to take the cake before sending Mei Xue away.
Looking at the cakes Huang Cen brought in, Qingyan knew that there was a small amount of poisonous powder on them. Although it was not fatal, it was easily addictive because it was made from poppy pollen.
Ah. A sneer appeared on Qingyan's lips.
"Miss, what's wrong with this pastry?" Zi Zhu looked at Qing Yan and asked with concern.
"Yes, there is poppy pollen in this cake." Qingyan looked at them and said calmly.
"What! How could the third lady do this! This thing is addictive!" When Chi Shao heard this, she said angrily, "Miss, I will throw this thing out to you right now. "
Bai Zhi and Huang Cen didn't understand what they heard, so they looked at their eyes. Lu'e explained, "You all don't know that although this stuff is good for the human body in small amounts, it is extremely addictive. Once you become addicted, it is difficult to quit." Lose."
After Huang Cen took a look at the things in the basket, he wanted to get the things in the basket, but Qingyan refused.
"Miss, what do you mean? This thing is not good for you!" Huang Cen looked at Qingyan and couldn't bear to speak. She said with bright eyes, "Does the miss have some new ways to deal with the third lady?"
"Fengqing." Qingyan called into the air, "The pastries that Chai Yiyun sent to Wenshuang Courtyard are the same."
Fengqing then appeared at Qingyan's window, looked at her and said respectfully, "Yes, it's the same cake as the one given to the lady."
"Oh!" Qingyan curled her lips and handed the basket to Fengqing, "I think you already know what to do."
"My subordinates understand." Fengqing disappeared with the basket. About a moment later, Fengqing appeared in front of them again, holding a food box in his hand.
After Qingyan opened the box, she looked at the pastries inside and said with a smile, "You all come over and have a taste. I heard that my third aunt is very good at her craftsmanship." She said and divided the pastries in the box between them. in hand.
Fengqing looked at the cake in her hand and then disappeared.
"Miss, why is Fengqing's face so red!" Huang Cen said and poked the red peony root next to him who was eating happily.
"Maybe it's because we are shy! There are very few people in His Royal Highness who care about us so much." Chi Shao said and looked at Qingyan again. She slurred while eating cakes, "Can you follow me, Miss?" It’s really great.”
"Chi Shao, you know too much. When did I become shy?" Feng Qing's voice sounded in the air.
