There was something strange about this matter. Qu Qiuyan felt that she could no longer get involved in it. She just watched from the side, feeling depressed. She had originally thought that this matter was perfect, but now there was no evidence. It seemed so mysterious no matter how she looked at it, making her feel uneasy. What went wrong
"Just take a look? If Second Sister is not guilty, would you dare to let our nanny go to your place and take a look?" Qu Moying raised his eyebrows and said in a cold voice.
"Yes... there's nothing to be afraid of. If my nanny wants to go and see, then go ahead!" Qu Caiyue had already panicked, but at this moment she didn't dare to back down and could only go ahead with her courage.
"Madam, can you take Yudong with you to see it? This will prevent my second sister from finding a false accusation to pin it on me. I will support you, grandma." Qu Moying said softly to Madam.
"You go and take a look!" The lady's eyes swept over Qu Caiyue, her face showing anger.
This illegitimate granddaughter was the one she looked down upon the most in the past. It was not just because of her status as a illegitimate daughter, but because she was simply a mean person. She was not good at currying favor with Qu Qiuyan, and was very mean to the servants in the mansion. It was common for her to beat and scold the servants. Even though the lady was in the West Mansion, she heard what came from the East Mansion.
In the past, she was just considered a troublesome person, but she had her own parents to bring her up, and she didn't come over often on weekdays, so the lady didn't want to care about it. But now, such a troublesome thing happened, and the lady was annoyed.
Aunt Wu responded and went to Qu Caiyue's yard on the other side with Yu Dong.
Qu Moying helped the old lady walk back, and Qu Qiuyan also hurried forward to help support the other side of the old lady.
Just as I reached the gate of the lady's courtyard, I saw my nanny coming hurriedly and whispering something in the lady's ear. The lady's face was as gloomy as water. She held Qu Moying's hand to stand firm and looked at Qu Caiyue on the side.
After a long while, he said, "Let's go to the second girl's yard and take a look."
After saying that, he held Qu Moying's hand and continued walking forward.
The other people from the Qu Mansion followed and arrived at the gate of Qu Caiyue's courtyard. After they went in, they closed the door. The pilgrims who followed outside looked at each other. Was it this Second Miss Qu who had something to do, not the Fourth Miss Qu
Miss Qu Si has just proved her innocence, so what about Miss Qu Er
Some curious people went forward and eavesdropped at the front door of the courtyard. The others who were not convenient to eavesdrop did not leave, but just walked outside, pretending to enjoy the scenery, but their ears were closely listening to the movements in the courtyard.
As soon as they entered the courtyard, the old lady got angry and shouted at Qu Caiyue who followed behind her: "Kneel down!"
Qu Caiyue panicked and knelt down involuntarily, feeling very aggrieved: "Grandma."
Qu Moying looked around the yard and helped the lady sit down on a stone bench nearby.
Yudong came out of the house with a package in his hand and put it on the stone table in front of the lady. When he opened it, he saw a gorgeous dress. Inside the dress was an exquisite jewelry box with a pair of white jade earrings. One could tell from the quality of the jade that it cost a lot.
Seeing this familiar package, Qu Caiyue almost fainted. She pressed her hands on the ground and trembled. This package was the one she put into Qu Moying's package. How could it be here with her at this moment
She recalled the scene after entering the temple. There was no scene that could allow Qu Moying to deliver the package to her yard without making a sound. So what was this package
How did it appear here
"Tell me, where did these things come from?" the lady asked sternly.
"I... I don't know... Grandma, I don't know this... where this came from..." Qu Caiyue stuttered, her face as pale as snow, her mind in a mess. She would rather faint at this moment. Why did this happen? How could this be possible? Shouldn't this dress be in Qu Moying's package
She looked at Qu Qiuyan for help, but she glared at her fiercely, then stepped back and avoided her gaze.
"Is this Hua Yiwan's clothes? I don't remember you buying any clothes from Hua Yiwan recently. There are no Hua Yiwan clothes among the clothes prepared for you by the mansion. Did you buy them yourself?" The lady picked up the corner of the clothes and gestured, then continued to ask in a cold voice.
The Qu family also had a set of rules for the young ladies: four sets of clothes for each season, for each season. If they wanted more, they could use their own pocket money to buy them.
The other two granddaughters are legitimate daughters, and their biological mothers support them. Only Qu Caiyue's biological mother is Aunt Mei, who has little money to support Qu Caiyue and never spends her own money to buy clothes for Hua Yiwan.
"Grandma... Grandma... is mine... It's mine." Qu Caiyue had to grit her teeth and say this after being forced to this point.
"Where are the earrings?" The lady looked disappointed with her.
“This… this… this… I don’t know where it came from. Fourth sister and I rode in the same carriage before. Fourth sister… it was fourth sister…” Qu Caiyue dared to admit it because she thought the clothes could not be found out. She had no money and usually would not buy Hua Yiwan’s clothes, but that did not mean she would definitely not buy them. If Qu Qiuyan gave her some money, she could actually buy it.
As for the pair of earrings, she really couldn't recognize them. She didn't know how much such earrings were worth, nor did she know if there was any reason for them. Originally, these were prepared for her by Qu Qiuyan, and she didn't ask where these things came from.
Thinking about how she and Qu Moying had come in a carriage before, she suddenly had an idea and made Qu Moying famous.
Anyway, there were only a few people in the carriage at that time, and Qu Moying couldn't explain it clearly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" The lady was furious and shouted.
"Grandma, it really is fourth sister's. I really don't know when fourth sister stuffed it into the package of my clothes." Qu Caiyue burst into tears loudly at this time, as if she had grabbed a life-saving straw, looking very aggrieved.
"Second sister, did you say these earrings are mine?" Qu Moying asked, his eyes passing over Qu Caiyue.
"Of course it's fourth sister's. I don't have such earrings myself. When I came back today, I mixed the package with fourth sister's. It must be fourth sister's earrings that fell into my package." Qu Caiyue said righteously.
At this time, he is still slandering me. Qu Moying sneered in his heart and stretched out his hand to pinch the clothes on the stone table. "It is said that when Hua Yiwan's new clothes are on the market, the clothes sold are recorded. This dress looks very new, so it should be a new model this year. I can find out who bought it by checking."
In this life, she had indeed never bought clothes for Hua Yiwan, but in her previous life, she liked almost every new style of every season, so she knew about this matter.
Qu Caiyue was startled, her lips turned pale, she stuttered twice, and couldn't utter a single word.
, then turned to Qu Qiuyan with difficulty. Qu Qiuyan knew who bought the dress. She also knew that it was bought by Yan Yu, the second son of the Yan family. He originally wanted to frame Qu Moying. The two had just met at the market, but that was just a passing glance.
This dress appeared in my package a long time ago, and I admitted it just now. Doesn't it clearly prove that I am the one who has an affair with Mr. Yan
If the earrings also have a recorded origin like this, then no matter how much I explain, I won’t be able to explain it clearly.
She was panicking and tears were falling from her eyes. There was no need to slander Qu Moying anymore. This dress alone was enough to nail her down.
"As for the earrings, I have no idea. The head of the manor should know everything about me. I haven't even seen Master Xu, let alone other men from outside the manor. I haven't seen any men from outside the mansion in the past few days since I returned to the mansion. Grandmother, please check the origins of these clothes and earrings. I believe they are all marked items and are easy to check."
There is still something Qu Moying doesn't understand.
First he "gave" clothes, and then he acted as a "hero to save the beauty". The man with the peach blossom eyes should be the protagonist of this incident. He looked like a gentleman, but I didn't expect that he actually colluded with Qu Qiuyan and harmed me. If I had said a few more words to him at that time, it would have been clear evidence after the incident.
Falling in love at first sight is a romantic thing for men, but it is fatal for women, especially now that she has just broken off the engagement with Xu Lipeng.
If these things were found in his own yard, with so many pilgrims watching the fun at his door just now, his reputation would be ruined.
Although she didn't care about getting married in this life, she didn't want to let her reputation be ruined by the mother and daughter of the Yu family. The corners of her lips curled up silently, and her smile was a little cold.
"Go, invite the second young master Yan over." Although she didn't like Qu Caiyue, the old lady didn't intend to cause a big disturbance in Qingcheng. She calmed down and instructed my nanny.
She wanted to see what kind of person this Second Young Master Yan was. She had only heard that he was not very decent in the past, but now he was causing trouble in her house. After returning, she would definitely ask Marquis Feng Yang to come over to her house to talk.
My nanny was out for quite some time. After a long while, she came back to greet a man leisurely. Qu Moying recognized him at a glance as the young man she met at the market before. Her eyes were cold under her veil.
Yan Yu was not panicked when he came here. He originally planned to dig up the truth. When he saw the old woman beside Madam Qu coming over, he deliberately changed his clothes. He was also living in Dabei Temple now. Although it was the side for male pilgrims, it was not far from here. After entering the courtyard, he saw Qu Caiyue kneeling on the ground, crying and falling to the ground.
Qu Moying stood on the side of the old lady, who was still holding Qu Moying's hand tightly. She looked so biased that it was unbearable to look at her. There was more and more disgust in her eyes. This fourth Miss Qu not only had a strange temper, bad character, and a cruel heart, but she was also a showman.
It was clearly her who got into trouble, but the one who was punished was the poor Second Miss Qu. Seeing that Second Miss Qu was crying so hard and no one around her paid any attention to her, it seemed that Madam Qu was really going too far. It was just as Yu Qingmeng said.
As it happens, since this Fourth Miss Qu is so vicious, he can be even more unscrupulous...
