Chapter 377
"It's all my fault for not protecting him well, He Lang. I really didn't frame Aunt Liu. If you don't believe me, you can ask Mei Yue and the other maids who were there at the time."
Aunt Gu made such a request, and He Rencheng naturally couldn't refuse, so he immediately invited all the maids who were present at that time.
Good guy.
Lin Chuqian watched from the side, seeing five or six maidservants kneeling underneath, she couldn't help but sigh that Aunt Gu had put a lot of thought into designing Aunt Liu.
Among these maids, there were not only Aunt Liu and Aunt Gu in their respective rooms, but also two sweeping maids who happened to pass by.
He Rencheng sat on the edge of the bed and asked with a straight face: "Should you tell me about it, how did the situation happen at that time?"
After taking over the maid, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end it was Mei Yue in Aunt Gu's room who spoke first.
"Back to the master, Aunt Gu felt bored staying in the house today, so she led the servants to the garden together, but when we went to the garden on the front foot, Aunt Liu came on the back foot. Aunt Gu still wanted to avoid it. , but Aunt Liu saw it with sharp eyes, so she came up and taunted our aunt, saying that our aunt was shamelessly pestering the master all day long, and she also said that our aunt really came from a small place, but there were no rules. Serving tea to her, my aunt couldn't take it anymore, so she replied a few words."
"You lowly maidservant, you're just talking nonsense!" Aunt Liu couldn't sit still when she heard this, and interrupted hastily. "He Lang, this lowly maid is in Aunt Gu's house, so naturally she is helping her speak."
"That's right, master." Dong Ju in Aunt Liu's room didn't flinch anymore, and hurried forward to kowtow, clarifying for Aunt Liu with righteous words. "What Mei Yue said was all lies. Aunt Liu was the one who deliberately avoided it at the beginning, and it was Aunt Liu who was reprimanded and insulted for no reason. How could it be reversed in Mei Yue's mouth in a blink of an eye? Master, please learn from us. My aunt is innocent!"
When He Rencheng heard this, he was in trouble again.How do you decide who is lying?
Aunt Gu snorted softly. "Aunt Liu also said just now that Meiyue is mine and naturally speaks for me, and Dongju is in Aunt Liu's house, so naturally, so He Lang can ask the other two maids!"
He Rencheng was enlightened immediately, his eyes lit up. "You two, tell me about the situation at that time."
The two maids were disheveled, and they were also wearing coarse linen clothes. The winter clothes on their bodies were patched several times, and they looked like the kind of clothes that had been mended for three years.
Both of them are not very old, only seventeen or eighteen years old.Kneeling on the ground, he was so nervous that he didn't even dare to lift his head.
Seeing this, He Rencheng couldn't help scolding impatiently. "Don't you two understand me?"
"Return to the master." After a while, one of the maids spoke, but the voice was as thin as a mosquito, and no one could hear it clearly.
He Rencheng's face became more and more impatient, and he threw the teacup in front of the girl, and scolded: "Tell me what you saw at that time!"
"Yes." The timid girl clasped her palms tightly, raised her head and took a deep breath, her voice suddenly became much louder. "The servant girl saw that Aunt Liu pointed at Aunt Gu's nose and scolded her non-stop. Just as Aunt Gu was about to retaliate, Aunt Liu became furious and pushed Aunt Gu down."
After hearing this, Aunt Liu's face changed greatly, and she shouted excitedly: "You are lying, He Lang, what she said is all lies, it wasn't Aunt Gu who I scolded first, and I didn't push her, you have to believe me, He Lang."
After He Rencheng listened to the girl's words, his face became gloomy and frightening. "So far, what else do you have to say?"
"He Lang, I don't, I really don't, it's not me." Aunt Liu immediately knelt on the ground and held He Rencheng's hand, she kept shaking her head with tears, trying to arouse his sympathy.
But even if He Rencheng was willing to soften his heart, Aunt Gu refused.
"He Lang, I don't even know why Aunt Liu wants to harm our child. Is it because she has no young master under her knees, only a third lady, so she is afraid that He Lang will threaten her status if I give birth to a young master?" Aunt Gu Nestling in He Rencheng's embrace, delicate and condescending, she looked down at Aunt Liu who was kneeling on the ground.
There is a hint of complacency and provocation in the eyes.
When I heard these words in Aunt Liu's ears, it was Aunt Gu who was mocking her for not being able to give birth to a son, but she was gnashing her teeth angrily, but she didn't dare to reply, and she understood in her heart that Aunt Gu was determined to frame her today. She even bribed the cleaning maid.
"You said Aunt Liu pointed at Aunt Gu's nose and scolded her? Then did you hear clearly what Aunt Liu scolded her?" Lin Chuqian, who had been silent all this time, opened her mouth. She slowly walked up to the maid, condescending Looking at her with a warm smile on his face.
Her sudden opening was a bit unexpected, and many people didn't have time to react.
That maid was also Lengzhu, and after she realized it, she gave Aunt Gu a nervous look, and said bravely, "What Aunt Liu scolded was exactly what Sister Mei Yue said just now."
"Is it because Aunt Liu scolded Aunt Gu for being shameless, pestering the master all day long, and calling her ignorant of the rules?" Lin Chuqian spoke slowly, and finally looked straight at the girl, and asked with a smile: "Yes? These words?"
The girl was stared into a cold sweat, but she still nodded persistently. "That's right."
Lin Chuqian smiled lightly, and looked back at the three people beside the bed with puzzled faces. She lowered her head to look at the girl and asked, "Then Aunt Liu pushed Aunt Gu with that hand? How did she push it?" ? Also, how did Aunt Gu fall to the ground after being pushed down?"
The girl's face turned pale immediately, she hesitated and couldn't answer, and looked at Aunt Gu frequently, but unfortunately the latter was too frightened at this time to think of any tricks.
Aunt Liu's mind was still active, and she immediately came to her senses. "That's right, if you said that I pushed Aunt Gu, then you should tell me how I pushed. If you can't tell, then you are lying!"
"Slave. Slave didn't lie." The girl shook her head nervously, and replied vaguely: "At that time, Slave was standing far away, so I couldn't see clearly."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Chuqian couldn't help laughing.
"I didn't see clearly, then how did you hear Aunt Liu's words?"
"Slave. Slave is blocked by something." The girl is still stubborn about the matter.
Lin Chuqian didn't bother to continue asking her, but turned her head to ask the Sasao girl next to her who hadn't spoken. "Is what she said true?"
The girl who had never spoken from the beginning to the end was so frightened by this scene that she trembled all over and couldn't make any sound. Of course, she might not know whether she should tell the truth. It was her partner, she didn't even dare to raise her head, let alone opened her mouth, she just lay down on the ground and resolutely refused to answer.
Lin Chuqian didn't force her, turned to He Rencheng and said, "Master, I don't think this girl can believe what she says."
"He Lang, sister is right." Aunt Liu saw the right moment, and naturally she would not let it go. "The girl kept saying that she heard me scold Aunt Gu, but she couldn't tell me why I pushed her back. She was clearly lying."
When He Rencheng heard this, he just felt a headache.
I don't know who to trust either.
