Chapter 80 Come to think of it, it's true
"Dad...this thing is not mine. My third sister and sixth sister teamed up to slander my daughter." Lu Yue's knees went weak and she fell to her knees with a plop, quibbling uneasily.
"Master, this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against Yue'er. Yue'er is innocent." Aunt Fang shouted at the top of her lungs, staring at Lu Xiang and Lu Qiao with bloodthirsty hatred on her face.
"Pah..." When Liu thought of her daughter lying in bed with wounds all over her body, facing the possibility of scars and disfigurement, she wanted to cut Lu Yue into pieces: "She is innocent? Then why don't you tell me why her earrings appeared in the North Courtyard? Mingzhu has no private contact with her."
This vicious bitch, even if Lu Yue was skinned alive and her tendons were pulled out, it would not be able to relieve Liu's hatred.
Suddenly, a maid hurried into the room, glanced at Aunt Fang and Lu Yue who were kneeling on the ground, and then said solemnly: "Master, Xia Qing has woken up, and she has something to report."
Lu Youping didn't have the energy to care whether a maid was awake or not, and immediately said impatiently: "If she wakes up, then wake up. If there is anything, we can talk about it later."
The old lady heard something strange and asked, "Where is she? Did she say anything?" If there was something to report at this time, it must be no small matter.
"She was waiting outside. She said that the Fifth Miss wanted to kill her, so she pushed her into the pool."
Lu Yue was terrified and stared at the maid who was talking, "Nonsense, when did I ever kill her?"
Although she wanted to push her out to take the blame, what did Xia Qing falling into the water have to do with her?
It was not until this moment that Lu Yue suddenly felt as if she had fallen into a pit, and an invisible hand was trying to pull her into an endless abyss.
She looked terrified and her body was shaking with fear. In Lu Youping's eyes, this scene was a clear sign of guilt.
"Bring Xia Qing in." Lu Youping said coldly.
Soon, Xia Qing came in supported by someone. Because he was almost drowned, he looked very weak at the moment. His face was pale and weak. As soon as he entered the room, his pair of dark pupils shot towards Lu Yue like a sharp sword, and there was hatred that could not be hidden in his eyes.
"This servant has greeted the old lady and the master."
Xia Qing knelt down and kowtowed.
The old lady asked her, "You said that Miss Five harmed you. What's going on?"
"To answer the old lady, I was about to go to sleep when I unexpectedly saw the Fifth Miss and Furong sneaking out of the door. I followed them out of curiosity and saw them heading to the North Courtyard. I heard the Fifth Miss asking Furong to lead away the patrolling servants. Then she quietly touched the window of the Fourth Miss's bedroom, poured some kerosene into the room, and threw the lit tinder inside."
"I made a noise accidentally because I was afraid to run away. Miss Five found me and chased after me. She and Furong caught me and said that I had discovered her secret. Only by silencing me could they ensure that this matter would not be discovered. So they pushed me into the pond... If Miss Three had not saved me, I would have gone to see the King of Hell by now."
"You are talking nonsense, bitch. Who has bribed you to frame your own master?" Aunt Fang roared angrily, jumped up and kicked Xia Qing.
But before her toes touched Xia Qing's body, Ah Man pulled her away like a gust of wind.
Aunt Fang stepped back, and because of inertia, she lost her balance and was about to fall, but the people around her dodged to the sides at the same time, causing Aunt Fang to fall headfirst.
With both witnesses and evidence, today's incident is definitely related to the Fifth Miss. However, it is not clear whether it was the Fifth Miss's idea or Aunt Fang's instigation. But no matter which one it is, everyone at this time wishes to stay away from Aunt Fang and Lu Yue as far as possible to avoid being contaminated by bad luck.
The old lady was shocked and angry, and more disappointed with Lu Yue. She never thought that Lu Yue could be so vicious at such a young age. Although she didn't love Lu Yue as much as Xiangxiang did, she valued all the children of the Lu family.
"Fifth girl, do you plead guilty?"
"No... I'm not guilty. It was Xia Qing who stole my earrings and framed me." Lu Yue shook her head in horror and refused to admit it.
Lu Youping stared at Lu Yue with eyes that looked like he wanted to eat her: "There are witnesses and evidences, and you are still trying to argue. Xia Qing is your maid, why would she frame you?"
Wicked girl, this wicked girl.
If he dares to kill his sisters today, will he raise a knife against his father tomorrow?
How could Lu Youping have such a vicious daughter?
"Xia Qing has long been bribed by Lu Xiang. She is a traitor. She was instructed by Lu Xiang to frame me." Lu Yue had long been overwhelmed by the huge fear. She spoke without thinking and didn't even know what she was saying.
"How outrageous." When the old lady heard Lu Yue randomly implicating Lu Xiang, she immediately flew into a rage.
Lu Xiang immediately showed an aggrieved expression, and looked at Lu Youping with tears in her eyes: "Dad, what did your daughter do wrong? First, the fourth sister threw dirty water on me, and now the fifth sister slandered me. Are they bullying me at will because I don't have a biological mother to protect me? Will your daughter be blamed for anyone who makes a mistake or loses face in the future? Instead of this, Dad might as well expel your daughter from the house now, so that she won't be unable to defend herself in the future when there is no evidence."
Lu Yue, thank you so much for your nonsense.
After what you've done, father and grandmother will be suspicious of what she does next time.
Seeing Lu Xiang's aggrieved eyes flushed, Lu Youping showed a trace of pity on his face: "Dad won't let you suffer injustice."
Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Lu Youping even felt a little guilty towards Lu Xiang.
"Master, I was originally serving Madam Fang, and it was she who asked the old lady to let me go to Miss Five. My loyalty to my master is evident to all. Miss Five can beat and scold me, but she cannot insult my personality. After I was pushed into the water, I heard Miss Five say that her earring was missing. I was worried that it had fallen in the North Courtyard, so I wanted to go back to look for it. However, the fire had alarmed everyone, so Miss Five hid the remaining earring, Furong, and then took Furong's earring and put it on."
Following Xia Qing's words, everyone's eyes turned to Lu Yue's ears, but they couldn't see anything different.
"Furong..." The old lady looked at the crowd with sharp eyes.
Furong knelt beside Lu Yue and said tremblingly: "Master, Madam, Xia Qing is clearly talking nonsense. Miss Fifth and I have never seen her tonight... I..."
"Isn't it you, a slut, who has the final say? Someone, come and search her body for me." Liu pointed at Furong and said viciously without caring about anything.
