In the hall, Mrs. Liu panted and pointed at Wen Qingmei who was lying on the ground.
Mrs. Wanlao sat on the main seat next door with a cold face, looking very bad.
As for Mrs. Wan—
Wen Qingzhu glanced around and didn't see her.
"Grandma, what happened?" Wen Qingzhu walked quickly to Mrs. Liu and asked anxiously.
When Mrs. Liu saw her coming, she was immediately furious and asked her: "Why did you leave Young Master Biao and go back to Yanyuan just now?"
Wen Qingzhu made an aggrieved look and said in a low voice: "When it was time for my granddaughter to drink medicine, I thought my twelfth sister was also there, so I let them go first."
"When should you not drink medicine! If you had sent Mr. Ciao in advance! Why would you let this shameless thing ruin the Wen family's reputation?"
Mrs. Liu was already so angry that she even scolded Wen Qingzhu.
Wen Qingzhu pursed his lips. Mrs. Liu had indeed benefited from the Wan family.
"Grandma, may I ask what the twelfth sister did to make grandma so angry?"
After hearing her words, Mrs. Liu turned around, picked up the tea cup on the table, and threw it towards Wen Qingmei.
Wen Qingmei didn't dare to hide away, her shoulders tilted, and the hands supporting her body began to tremble.
Mrs. Liu said angrily: "She is such a little bitch! She actually seduced Master Wan! If Zi Yan hadn't found out in time, I wouldn't have known she had such thoughts!"
Condensing smoke
Wen Qingzhu frowned, how come Zi Yan discovered it first
Shouldn't the purple smoke be in the laundry room now
Wen Qingzhu thought for a moment and asked respectfully: "I'm really sorry, but I believe that your twelfth sister will not do such a thing that is degrading to the family tradition. Where is Master Wan now? There are some things I need to ask him. "
"He was taken to the inner room by Mrs. Wan for questioning!" Ms. Liu looked at Wen Qingzhu displeased, "Xiao Qi asked this, does he not believe what his grandmother said?"
Hearing the threat in Liu's tone, Wen Qingzhu quickly lowered his head: "It's not that my granddaughter doesn't believe grandma, but if grandma saw this thing, Xiaoqi has nothing to say, but grandma clearly said just now that it was Zi Yan I discovered it in time, Zi Yan should be in the laundry room at this time... "
Mrs. Liu paused thoughtfully.
When Mrs. Wan heard what she said, she quickly asked: "Isn't Zi Yan the maid serving in front of the old lady?"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head and explained: "Zi Yan made a mistake before and no longer served her grandmother. Master Wan and the twelfth sister were on their way to Zi Mingtang. The laundry room happened to be in the northernmost corner. It was impossible for Zi Yan to be taken care of by her. Discovered."
Mrs. Liu realized something and immediately ordered Nanny Du beside her: "Go and call Zi Yan over!"
After a while, Zi Yan walked out wearing gray clothes.
Mrs. Liu frowned and looked at Zi Yan: "Where did you just say you met Master Wan and Miss Twelve?"
Zi Yan glanced at Wen Qingmei on the ground, hesitated and replied loudly: "Near Baiyuan Garden, the slave was delivering washed and dried clothes to Huayuan, and happened to pass by."
Wen Qingzhu questioned, "It's mid-afternoon. Clothes are usually delivered in the morning, and the clothes in the laundry room are all in batches. Are you the only one delivering clothes today?"
Zi Yan's heart suddenly jumped and she knelt down quickly: "I really went to Huayuan to deliver clothes. I was still holding a basket in my hand at that time. If you don't believe me, Grandma Du can testify that my basket of clothes is there."
"Really?" Mrs. Liu turned around and asked Aunt Du.
Aunt Du raised her hand, and another little maid came over with a basket.
The basket happened to contain the servant's clothes. After careful identification, it was indeed Hua Yuan's clothes.
Wen Qingzhu asked again: "Then what did you see? How did you decide that Miss Twelve seduced Master Wan!?"
Zi Yan never expected that Wen Qingzhu would actually investigate this matter.
Wen Qingmei was born to an aunt, so Wen Qingzhu actually protected her like this
As a last resort, Zi Yan could only repeat what she had said before: "The slave was passing by the path of Baiyuan Garden and heard a sound near the lotus pond, so he ran over. Unexpectedly, as he passed by, he saw Miss Twelve falling on Master Wan. At that time, Master Wan seemed to want to push her away, but Miss Twelve still pounced on Master Wan. The servant shouted in panic, attracting servants elsewhere. At that time, Miss Twelve's collar - "
"Shut up!" Mrs. Liu couldn't listen anymore and stopped Zi Yan.
Wen Qingzhu found that Zi Yan's words were inconsistent.
However, she did not question Zi Yan immediately, but turned around and asked Mrs. Liu: "Grandma, I want to ask the twelve sisters. After all, this matter is related to the reputation of the twelve sisters. If she does something scandalous, let her accept her fate. That’s it! But if someone deliberately framed her and deliberately wanted to embarrass Yanyuan and the Wen family... "
Wen Qingzhu didn't say the next words, but Liu understood them.
Before Mrs. Liu spoke, Madam Wan spoke in advance: "You ask, Miss Twelve seemed to want to say something just now, but she didn't have time to say it yet."
Wen Qingzhu glanced at Mrs. Liu, and then turned around after seeing her nod. She asked Wen Qingmei in a deep voice: "What happened at that time? Why did you go to Baiyuan Garden? Shouldn't you be going to Zimingtang?"
Wen Qingmei finally had a chance to explain, and her voice became hoarse with excitement: "After the seventh sister left, I was going to take Master Wan to Zimingtang, but on the way I met the boy next to the second young master, and he said The young master is no longer at Zimingtang, and is over at Huayuan, so I took Mr. Wan and headed to Huayuan."
"Which boy, what's his name?" Wen Qingzhu asked immediately.
Wen Qingmei thought for a while, and finally shook her head nervously and said: "I, I don't know, but I have seen that boy beside the second young master many times. As long as he comes, I will definitely recognize him!"
"Grandma?" Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Mr. Liu.
Mrs. Liu was a little dissatisfied, but Mrs. Wan said: "Here, come, go and call the second young master at the same time and ask the boys around him to bring him over."
A grandma took the order and went down.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at Mrs. Wan Lao curiously, feeling strange in his heart.
Why is Mrs. Wan more worried about Wen Qingmei's reputation than Mrs. Liu
In other words, Mrs. Wan Lao doesn't want Wan Ze to have a relationship with the Wen family
In just one stick of incense, Wen Mingyu and Wen Qingfang hurried over.
The moment he saw Wen Qingzhu, Wen Mingyu felt a dull pain in his wrist for some reason.
But soon, Madam Wan called him over: "Mingyu, have you brought all the people you asked to bring?"
"Bring it here." Wen Mingyu pointed to the three boys standing at the door.
Wen Qingzhu took a glance and found that the three boys were very calm.
The one Wen Qingmei met was not among these three people.
Soon, Wen Qingmei turned around to identify, and when she saw that the boy was not there, her face turned pale.
It’s over! She was plotted against!
There was no such thing as the person she met.
Wen Qingzhu immediately asked: "Isn't there that person you have met?"
"He, he's not here." Wen Qingmei's voice was almost inaudible.
Wen Qingzhu was not worried, but turned to Wen Mingyu and asked, "Second brother, are all your servants here?"
Wen Qingmei just said that she could identify that person as the boy next to Wen Mingyu.
Then that boy must be by Wen Mingyu's side all the time. After all, Wen Qingmei only leaves Yanyuan a handful of times.
Wen Mingyu frowned and said, "What? Aaron was sick yesterday and stayed in bed and didn't go out."
The corner of Wen Qingzhu's mouth curled up: "Can you trouble the second brother to invite this Aaron over? Just now the twelfth sister said that he met Aaron on the way."
"Impossible!" Wen Mingyu refused without hesitation.
But Madam Wan beside him said calmly: "Mingyu, please call that Aaron over. He is a servant who has rested for a day even if he is sick. He is not as delicate as you."
"Yes." Wen Mingyu couldn't refute his grandmother, so he sent a boy to call Aaron.
While everyone was waiting calmly for Aaron to come over, Mrs. Wan walked out with Wan Ze.
Seeing Wen Mingyu and Wen Qingfang arriving, she walked over enthusiastically and held their hands: "Fang'er, Mingyu! Auntie hasn't seen you for a long time!"
"I've met my aunt." The two of them greeted Mrs. Wan respectfully.
Wen Qingzhu saw this scene in his eyes. Wen Qingfang looked normal, but Wen Mingyu's eyes were clearly guarded.
After Mrs. Wan scanned the people in the room, she asked strangely: "Why are there so many people here? What happened?"
There was no expression on everyone's faces, but their thoughts began to wander.
Miss Wen tried to seduce and seduce your son, but you acted as if nothing was wrong!
Seeing that the others didn't reply, Wen Qingzhu had no choice but to explain the matter in detail.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Wan walked up to Wen Qingzhu with a smile, looked down at Wen Qingmei, and said in a very indifferent tone: "It's just a daughter born by a servant, so don't take it too seriously. If she can't talk to others in the future, I will subsidize her." With just a small amount of money, I’ll definitely be able to get married when the time comes!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Mrs. Wan's meaning has been obvious. Her son Wan Ze will not be responsible.
Even if the matter has been settled.
Wen Qingzhu glanced down at Wen Qingmei and found that her shoulders were already trembling.
The knuckles holding the ground were faintly white, and the whole person looked not good.
Just when Wen Qingzhu was about to speak, Mrs. Wanlao said: "Daughter-in-law, this is the twelfth young lady of the Wen family after all. She is not an ordinary little maid, and she cannot be paid with money."
"Mother!" Mrs. Wan covered her lips with a handkerchief and said with a smile on her face, "What you said is serious! She was born by a servant girl, how can she be a serious lady! If you say this, you will make people laugh. of!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Wan's face turned pale.
Mrs. Liu's face also trembled. Not only did Mrs. Wan's words not take Wen Qingmei seriously, but she also didn't care about her, the old lady of the Wen family.
Seeing that something was wrong, Wen Qingzhu quickly explained: "Mrs. Wan, there is a misunderstanding about this matter! Zi Yan has not been serving at Fushou Hall for a long time. She happened to find out about this, which is very strange!"
As soon as he finished speaking, footsteps came from the door of the house.
"Master, I brought Aaron here."
Wen Qingmei was the first to look up and immediately pointed at him and shouted: "That's him! It was he who said that the second brother was not in Zimingtang, so I took Master Wan back to Huayuan! If you don't believe it! Ask the second young master!"
The smile on Mrs. Wan's face faded, she glanced at Wen Qingmei, turned to Wan Ze who had been silent and asked: "Ze'er, she said you just met that boy, is it true?"
After hearing Mrs. Wan's words, Wan Ze raised his head and glanced at Aaron.
Wen Qingzhu stared at Wan Ze and found that there was something wrong with Wan Ze.
When Mrs. Wan was around, he was so well-behaved and quiet that he seemed like a different person.
Soon, Wan Ze withdrew his gaze and lowered his head: "No, I have never met him."
Upon hearing this, Wen Qingmei's face instantly turned pale, her legs balled up, and she collapsed on the ground.
She murmured to herself: "Why, how could it be possible... No, it's impossible..."
The frown between Wen Qingzhu's eyebrows deepened, this matter was a bit troublesome.
From the moment Wanze came out until now, she has been quietly sizing him up.
I found that Wan Ze never seemed to dare to disobey Mrs. Wan's words.
But when he looked at Aaron, the surprise in his eyes obviously disappeared.
This proves that he has met Aaron.
