Mrs. Xu did not waste any more time. She straightened her face and calmly described what she had seen to everyone in the room.
“When the old woman brought us in, she first opened the door, took a step inside, and then stepped out, saying that there was nothing in the room, and then she wanted to close the door.
But her expression showed that something must have happened in the house. Everyone became suspicious and pushed the old woman aside and went into the house.
But after entering the room, there was nothing inside. Just when I was wondering, there was movement on the bed. One of the ladies quickly lifted the bed curtain and saw the young master of the Xu family lying on the bed, just waking up.
Madam Xu took a sip of water and continued, "It's nothing. We are all ladies, and we are not young anymore. It's not a big deal to meet a stranger.
Unexpectedly, the old woman started howling even though she was still at the door, saying things like, "Madam, how could you do such a thing? Are you worthy of our prince?"
We were all completely confused. What the hell was going on? There were only us and Mr. Xu in the room. We didn't see Mrs. Shen at all."
After hearing what Madam Xu said, the old lady, Marquis Wu'an, and Shen Nian's faces turned completely black.
Although Mrs. Xu did not say it directly, everyone understood the meaning of her words.
They all looked at Mrs. Li who was kneeling on the ground with an incredible expression.
After Mrs. Xu finished speaking, she didn't stay any longer and got up to leave.
After all, it's someone else's family business, and if she gets involved she'll be annoying!
I still couldn't stand it today, so I stayed and said something more.
The old lady thanked Madam Xu and asked the second lady to send the person to the gate.
Before getting on the carriage, Madam Xu patted the Second Madam’s hand and said, “Second Madam Shen, please stay. I can’t stand what happened today, so I said something extra. Please don’t mind it.
I think your wife is a very lucky person, I hope you will treat her well."
The Second Madam bowed to Madam Xu sincerely and said, "Thank you for your advice, Madam Xu. Take care."
Only then did Mrs. Xu take the maid's hand and get on the carriage and leave.
The Second Lady watched the carriage go away and sighed softly. Even an outsider could see this, but some people in the Marquis' Mansion just couldn't see it clearly and were targeting and suppressing her everywhere.
Calling them stupid is a compliment!
The second lady held Siyu's hand and walked towards the old lady's yard, thinking to herself that it was a good thing nothing happened today, otherwise she, as the temporary housekeeper, would definitely be in trouble.
However, this was definitely not Li Pozi's personal behavior. She believed that Li Pozi herself did not have the courage to do so.
The most likely possibility is that he was instructed by someone, but this person...
The Second Madam's eyes darkened, and her hand holding Siyu couldn't help but tighten.
In the old lady's room.
Marquis Wu'an slapped the table with his hand and asked Mrs. Li on the ground with a dark face, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Li Pozi trembled with fear and quickly pounded her head on the ground, kowtowing and crying for mercy, "My Lord, I really just saw it wrong because of my old eyesight. I didn't mean to say that."
"Cousin, this damn old woman must have done it on purpose. She even wants to plot against me as well." Xu Jun, who was listening to Mrs. Li's excuses, immediately stood up and said angrily.
Marquis Wu'an glanced at Xu Jun and said in a cold voice, "What's wrong with you? You'd better explain it to me clearly, otherwise, hmph!"
Xu Jun's neck shrank. He was usually most afraid of this cousin, and when asked by Marquis Wu'an, he suddenly felt a little guilty.
His mother couldn't stand it and glared at him. What a kid! He always causes trouble for her wherever he goes.
Xu Jun's mother's glare brought him back to his senses. He had no reason to feel guilty. He hadn't done anything today, and he had almost been tricked by someone else.
Thinking of this, Xu Jun immediately complained indignantly, "Cousin, I didn't do anything today. I was just a little drunk and was just enjoying the breeze in the garden!
The old woman came over and said she would take me to the house to rest for a while. I followed her with a dizzy head.
After entering the room, she went out and closed the door, so I lay on the bed for a while, and then those ladies came in chattering and woke me up.
I swear, I was the only one in the room."
After Xu Jun finished speaking, he was afraid that Wu Anhou would not believe him, so he raised four fingers to the sky and swore, "If I lie, I will be struck by lightning."
Marquis Wu'an glanced at him unhappily, "Why are you alone in the garden? Where is your servant?"
"He needed to go to the toilet, so he went to find a toilet."
Marquis Wu'an glanced at him with disdain again, and Xu Jun, who had spoken with confidence, shrank back like a quail.
At this moment, Xu Jun's mother chimed in, "Nephew, although your cousin is unreliable, he wouldn't do such a despicable thing."
Xu Jun nodded repeatedly beside him.
The old lady remembered that there was another person involved, and asked Xia Tian with a stern look on her face, "What about you? Where were you at that time?"
Xia Tian stepped forward and explained expressionlessly, "I was resting in the yard next door.
After I left the table, I wanted to go back to Jinglan Garden, but when I walked into the garden, I felt a little dizzy, hot and thirsty, so I asked Ningxiang to get me some ice water, and I sat on a stone in the garden waiting for her.
After a while, Mrs. Li came over and said that the sun was very strong here and it was very hot, so she helped me to go to the yard to rest, which was the yard prepared for female guests to rest and change clothes temporarily.
She helped me in and left, saying she would tell Ningxiang that I was there.
Then I stayed in that yard until I heard a commotion in the yard next door, and then I went out to check.
When everyone in the room heard this, they understood everything and looked at each other. This was a clear frame-up!
As for who to frame, needless to say!
Even the third wife felt a little sympathetic to Xia Tian now. This move was really too cruel. He wanted to force people to death directly!
As for Xu Jun, he would at most be beaten up, but he would still be his playboy self afterwards.
Xu Jun glanced at Xia Tian and had the same thoughts as the Third Madam. She didn't know who hated her so much as her cousin's wife that she wanted to kill her.
But then he thought about how he was almost being used as a pawn, and he got angry again. He slammed the table and said, "I don't care. You must give me an explanation for this matter.
I don't care who in your family wants to harm others, and I don't care who they harm, but if you dare to include me, then you are like an old man hanging himself, tired of living!"
Xu Jun's mother nodded in agreement. No matter how much of a bastard her son was, that was no reason for others to plot against him. He had to give an explanation.
After hearing what Xu Jun said, Xia Tian complained in his heart, "No fly will bite a seamless egg. You are not a good person yourself, and you still want others to respect you. Isn't this a dream?"
But even though she complained, she still agreed with Xu Jun's attitude and he had to give an explanation.
Shen Nian said with a dark face, “Father, you must give me an explanation for what happened today.”
