Chapter 64 Su Yue’s personal maid rebelled?
Early the next morning, Xiao He walked into Su Yue's room not long ago.
"What are you eating? Why are you so distracted so early in the morning? The water is so hot, do you want to scald me to death?" Su Yue's insults came from the room along with the sound of the basin being knocked to the ground.
The servants who were doing chores outside were stunned for a moment, and then went back to their own business, fearing that they would not do the job well and bring disaster to themselves.
"Second Miss, I didn't mean it, please..." Xiao He's crying voice was heard. Two girls who usually disliked Xiao He walked together and started whispering.
"I just said that it's hard to change a person's nature. The Second Miss was so domineering before, how could she be so nice to Xiao He? Isn't she in trouble now?"
After saying this, he deliberately glanced at Su Yue's tightly closed door, and there was a hint of gloating in his words.
"That's right. I used to envy her for having a room for one person, but now it seems that she has no use for such a blessing. Hehehe..." Another girl chuckled softly, covering her mouth with her hands.
"Go, go, go...what are you doing? Why are you gossiping?"
When Mother Hua saw that the two girls were not working, she came up and scolded them. After the two girls left, she stared at Su Yue's door with a pair of cunning eyes, turning around and around.
"Let me tell you, don't think that just because I've been nice to you for a few days, you really think I dare not do anything to you. The eldest lady's personal maid is trying to please me, do you also want to please the eldest lady?" When a cold voice came, Mother Hua could imagine what Su Yue's expression was at the moment.
"No, no, Miss. I am loyal to you and I don't have any other thoughts."
Xiao He was horrified and even began to sob, as if she was extremely distressed by Su Yue's groundless suspicion.
"Humph. You'd better not be. I've been feeling that there's a traitor in my yard lately. It's better not to let me know it's you. Get out."
Su Yue seemed to have determined that Xiao He was a traitor. Although he didn't find any evidence, his words were full of suspicion.
Mother Hua's expression changed, and she walked behind a crabapple tree. Under the cover of the tree, she saw Xiaohe running out with her face covered.
In the next three days, Su Yue always caught Xiao He doing her job poorly. Even on the last occasion, she insisted that Xiao He had stolen her favorite bracelet and had her beaten with twenty boards.
Many servants at the scene watched Xiao He being beaten. After the twenty strokes of the board, blood appeared on her jacket and pants, which looked very creepy.
At night, Xiao He lay on her bed in a daze, her eyes filled with tears, and she seemed unaware that there was a dark shadow standing outside her door.
"Humph, I don't know what the Second Miss is thinking. She insisted that I was the eldest lady's spy. It's ok that she scolded me and suspected me normally, but today she hit me. People are all made of flesh and blood. I, Xiao He, just don't have a chance. If I had a chance, I would definitely go and prove that I am the eldest lady's spy."
After Xiao He muttered a few words with sobs, she began to sob again, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances she had suffered in the past two days. Fortunately, the Second Miss seemed to be doing something and was not in the room, so she dared to cry and complain.
"Squeak~" Xiaohe's door was pushed open by a dark shadow outside, and a woman with gray hair walked in.
"Who is it?" Xiao He turned her head with difficulty. Who else could it be but Hua Mama?
"Girl, were you hurt by the beating today?" Hua's mother changed her usual serious look and put on a kind expression.
"It doesn't hurt... I am the servant girl who was punished by the Second Miss, and I should bear all this." Xiao He said this with great grievance, and began to sob again. She really looked as if she had suffered a great injustice.
Mother Hua looked at Xiao He's aggrieved expression and thought of what she had just heard when she was sticking to the door, and her expression changed.
She was originally someone close to the old lady, but ever since she came to the second lady's house, the eldest lady has been trying to give her benefits, hoping that she could become her spy.
She originally had her own bottom line, but the eldest lady gave her too much.
A few days ago, she saw the Second Miss starting to pick on Xiao He. At first, she just thought that the Second Miss was acting with Xiao He to hook out the spies inside and outside the house.
But after these three days, she was completely relieved. No one would beat someone to death in a play.
Mother Hua was also shocked when she saw Xiao He's buttocks still bleeding due to his movements.
She told the eldest lady everything that had happened in the past few days. The eldest lady's eyes lit up and she told herself that she must take this opportunity to bring Xiaohe to their camp.
"You are such a silly girl. Your master is going to kill you, and you still don't know how to resist?" Mother Hua sat down beside Xiaohe's bed and touched Xiaohe's bleeding pants as if unintentionally. The sticky feel was definitely blood.
"We servants are like the seeds of weeds in the countryside. If we are lucky, we can find a good place and live there until we grow old. If we are unlucky, we may not even be able to sprout. Everything depends on fate."
Xiao He lay on the edge of the bed and spoke calmly, as if she had accepted her fate.
"Girl, a wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in. We are human beings, why should we accept our fate? I just heard you say that you wanted to be the eldest lady's spy, is that true?" Hua's mother's tone was full of inquiry.
"Mother Hua, I was wrong. Please don't tell the Second Miss. I...I was just saying that out of anger..."
When Xiao He heard Hua's mother's question, she seemed frightened and struggled to get up, but it seemed that her buttocks injury was too severe.
Mother Hua looked at Xiao He's panicked expression and felt relieved. If Xiao He had agreed immediately after she had tested him, she would have felt that something was wrong.
"Silly girl, what are you talking about? I'm telling you the truth. I'm from the young lady's side. As long as you want, I can do something for the young lady."
Mother Hua said it straight to the point, but she didn't notice the flash of pride in Xiaohe's eyes.
"Mom Hua, are you telling the truth? But the Second Miss now dislikes and suspects me, so I guess I'll have to replace my personal maid in the future." Xiao He looked dejected.
"Mom can assure you that the Second Miss will not replace you. You haven't done anything wrong. I guess the Second Miss has been a bit irritable these days. After a few days of calming down, she will remember your kindness."
Mother Hua didn't care much about it, after all, Su Yue had been very nice to Xiao He before.
"Is that so, Mother Hua, I will listen to you. This Second Miss is really going too far. As long as she is a human being, she will have a bit of dignity!" Xiao He seemed to have thought of something when she said this, and whispered mysteriously to Mother Hua,
"Mother Hua, I know a secret of the Second Miss. She has hidden something very important in her room."
After hearing this, Mother Su's expression changed. How could such a thing actually exist?
