Chapter 130: Taking Advantage of the Situation
When Xiao Jinyi was a girl, she lived in the Bitao Courtyard. Now that she has returned to her parents' home, this courtyard is still reserved for her.
Xu Shuyao walked to a place not far from the gate of the Bitao Courtyard, and saw a dark shadow standing behind the gate, so she didn't go in.
Instead, he turned to the maid who had just delivered the message and said, "You go back! I can go in by myself."
The little maid knew that today's matter was not simple, and she was eager to leave as soon as possible, and did not care whether the cousin came in or not.
In Ningxiang Courtyard, Molan from Jiyunzhai suddenly rushed in: "Second Young Madam! Yuzhu is heading to Jinhua Hall right now, saying that she wants to report you...you..."
Molan spoke hesitantly, and Liu Qingwan asked impatiently, "What are you reporting me for?"
The maid lowered her head and said, "She said...she said that you made the Chinese medicine yourself at the Shen family banquet, and she also got the spices you used in the Rose Courtyard."
Liu Qingwan's face turned pale. "How long has she been gone?"
Molan said hurriedly: "Just left, not long ago."
Liu Qingwan hurried out, but as Molan was from Jiyunzhai, it was inconvenient for her to follow her.
The Second Young Master's wife didn't want too many people to know about what happened that day, so she only brought two maids with her.
To get from Ningxiang Courtyard to Jinhua Hall, you have to pass through Bitao Courtyard.
Just as she reached the door of the Bitao Courtyard, a familiar fragrance blew towards her.
Before Liu Qingwan could dodge, she already felt something was wrong.
It smells the same as before, but it seems like something drowsy has been added to it.
Her body was limp and she fainted in just a few breaths.
Qiaowei and Huixiang put the two fainted maids in the corner at the back of the yard, and then went to deal with the second young master's wife.
Li Yichun came to the Duke's Mansion to pick up Xiao Jinyi after leaving the government office today. Originally, he had no intention of staying, but his wife told him about her cousin.
He originally thought it was inappropriate, but Xiao Jinyi said that he only needed to stay in the Bitao Courtyard and the woman would come to him.
Moreover, the other party has no parents and no one will support her.
"If I follow you, I will be yours." Xiao said finally.
Thinking of the beautiful young lady he met last time, Li Yichun struggled for a while before agreeing.
He was feeling very excited at the moment, when suddenly, the door opened from the outside and a graceful woman came in.
There was no light in the room, which was agreed with Xiao Jinyi so that he could find an excuse for himself later.
Therefore, Li Yichun just used the moonlight outside the window to identify the man, then caught him and threw him onto the bed.
After a while, Xiao Jinyi brought Chen to the Bitao Courtyard.
She had originally wanted to ask the second young master's wife to come and witness it, but when she got there she couldn't find anyone.
However, when Xiao Jinrong saw her looking for Liu, he had a bad feeling and followed her.
Chen was dragged here by her daughter, but when she arrived at the door of Bitaoyuan and saw that it was dark inside, she already felt that something was wrong.
But since everyone is here, we have to go in and take a look.
After the door was opened, before the lantern light could shine in, the eldest daughter beside him exclaimed, "Cousin Xu!"
After calling out, she rushed over to grab her husband.
Chen's heart suddenly sank. She asked the maid to bring the lantern closer. When she looked at the woman's half-undressed clothes, her eyebrows couldn't help but twitched: "Oh my God!"
Xiao Jinrong, who followed behind, heard the sound and looked into the house. He looked at him and he looked unwell.
If the woman inside is not Liu Qingwan, then who else could it be?
It seemed that Xiao Jinyi only realized at this moment that the woman on the bed was not her cousin Xu. Seeing her second brother dragging her husband out, she was stunned for a moment.
Xu Shuyao heard the noise inside, but it was not convenient for her to go in to see what was happening, so she hurriedly returned to Jiyunzhai with her two maids.
Xiao Jinyi and his wife left Duke Cheng's Mansion that night.
It was an ugly thing after all, but fortunately, only a few masters from the second house were present, and they were eager to keep it secret.
The next morning, Liu Qingwan was sent to the farm.
As for the two maids who betrayed their master, Yuzhu and Molan, Xu Shuyao discussed with her aunt and had them sold out.
Chen felt guilty and agreed to whatever she said, fearing that her niece would complain to her mother-in-law.
The two people who planned this were her daughter and her daughter-in-law.
She saw what happened to her daughter-in-law.
According to Xu Shuyao's intelligence, she knew that the other party had shown mercy to Xiao Jinyi.
After hearing this, Liu sighed deeply, but still advised Xiao Jinrong to forgive her niece, saying that it was because she, as an aunt, had not taught her well.
Xiao Jinrong did not express his opinion after hearing this.
Chen thought it was airtight, but in fact, Old Madam Xiao and Wang in Songhe Hall were discussing the matter!
"My second niece-in-law went to the farm, which was what she deserved. But... my second niece was too foolish. She actually planned to throw her own cousin into the Li family's toilet." When Wang thought of this, she felt uncomfortable.
If something happened to Xu Shuyao, the eldest son would probably blame her when he came back!
Fortunately, the child was smart and knew how to counter the opponent's moves.
Madam Xiao said with a cold face: "I was wondering why the second girl had such a good life that it turned out like that. It's no wonder her mother-in-law looked down on her."
After saying that, he sighed again, "Does she think everyone is like her? She didn't even ask her cousin Xu if she was willing, and then resorted to such dirty tricks."
The old lady then turned to the eldest daughter-in-law and said, "It's time to tidy up the inner house. Let the third daughter stay with you for a few months before she gets married! What kind of girl have you raised? I thought the second wife was born out of wedlock, so they might feel uncomfortable and turn a blind eye to everything. If they continue like this, they will ruin the reputation of the Xiao family!"
This was the first time Wang heard such harsh words from her mother-in-law, and she felt a chill in her heart.
When Xu Shuyao returned to Songhe Hall, she saw that Old Madam Xiao didn't speak to her. Her heart skipped a beat and she whispered, "Old Madam! Do you blame Yaoyao?"
She had long known that she could not hide what she had done from the old man in front of her.
Originally, she had a better idea, but when she thought of those two people, she couldn't help but feel resentful.
Liu Qingwan has harmed her more than once.
She couldn't find the evidence last time, but this time she's waiting for it!
I've been waiting almost since she suddenly became friends with my second cousin, waiting for her to come up with some bad tricks.
Yuzhu and Molan. Yuzhu has not yet settled the score for helping the people in Xiao Jinrong's house to put the letter there. The maid still thinks she did it perfectly.
Molan has been associated with Ningxiangyuan since Shuheng went to the Imperial College. Xu Shuyao watched coldly. This time, she just asked Yuzhu to pretend to go out, and asked someone to deliberately tell Molan about Yuzhu's whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, the second young master's wife rushed out to stop the people.
The last time when Xu Shuyao took Chinese medicine, she smelled that fragrance from her clothes. This time, as soon as she approached Bitaoyuan, she knew that the other party had made a move again.
So, how could she be soft-hearted?
