Cui Weizhen sat in the room with a cold face. It was just a day, and the furnishings in the room had already changed.
First of all, the carpet in the room was gone. It seemed that it had been removed not long ago, and the maids and slaves had not had time to replace it with a new one. The square table was originally a set of official kiln porcelain cups, among which Ye Zhenzhen liked to use it the most.
The tea cup for drinking water is missing, and the carpet is missing, what else is there to understand?
He was not a fool. When he contacted Qiu Feng, who was poking his head in the yard, he already had some guesses in his mind - Ye Zhenzhen already knew about today's drama and even pushed it along.
At this moment, he didn't know whether he felt more disappointed or more powerless. All the strength in his body seemed to have been drained. He closed his eyes tiredly, but did not open them even when he heard familiar footsteps coming in.
Eye.
The person on the bed was lying with his back to her. His attitude showed indifference and rejection. Ye Zhenzhen paused slightly, pursed her lips and said nothing more. She took off her shoes and walked to the bed to lie down.
, opened his eyes and looked at the picture of mandarin ducks crossing their necks embroidered on the gauze tent, wondering what he was thinking.
Cui Weizhen waited for a long time, and finally couldn't help turning around, looking at the motionless figure in the gauze tent with the candlelight, his voice was hoarse and dry: "Don't you have anything to explain to me?"
What answered him was a dead silence.
Disappointment finally stained his eyebrows. Cui Weizhen didn't want to stay in this room for a moment longer, so he got up and left.
The low cries of the maids gradually died away. Ye Zhenzhen, who was lying on the bed, had a crystal teardrop slipping from the corner of her tightly closed eyes, seeping into the soft pillow.
The night was silent and silent for a long time.
When she got up the next morning, Yuxiu, who was waiting in the room, saw Ye Zhenzhen and exclaimed: "Madam, your eyes are swollen!"
Not only were his eyes swollen, but his face was also horribly pale, as if he had stayed up all night without sleep, and he was so haggard that you could see it with the naked eye.
Yuxiu was one of the insiders. Thinking that the master had left his wife's room in the middle of the night last night, she couldn't help but feel sour in her heart and said, "Madam, why are you doing this?"
It's really not worth it to offend the master for nothing just to plot against a slave.
Only Ye Zhenzhen knew whether yesterday's efforts were worth it.
She had no energy and did not argue with the maid. She just ordered: "Go to the kitchen and get some eggs to roll around."
After applying the hot egg for a few times, she seemed to feel a little energetic. Ye Zhenzhen didn't even bother to eat breakfast, so she specially brought two maids, Qiu Feng and Qiu Wu, to the main room to pay homage to Aunt Cui.
Aunt Ye was also there. She hesitated when she saw her daughter, but she didn't say anything due to the wrong situation. However, Aunt Cui saw Ye Zhenzhen and spoke first: "Zhen'er, you didn't sleep last night, okay?
It's my mother who can't help you. The people around you have done such despicable things and wronged you. It just so happens that the ladies have already found out the results. Since you are here, let's listen together."
The mothers-in-law were waiting outside. When they heard the call, they came in quickly. They first greeted their masters and then explained the results of the process in a leisurely manner.
Mo Mei was just a petite girl. Although she was a servant, she was raised more delicately than other ladies in the Wang family. Under the torture of having her hands and feet broken off, her mother-in-law did not need to use any means to force a confession, so she was detained.
Recruited as soon as he arrived at the woodshed.
The method she used was similar to what Ye Zhenzhen found out. The confession only implicated Qiu Wu. It turned out that Qiu Wu was willing to be her pawn, but it was her promise that if she succeeded in becoming a concubine, she was willing to support Qiu Wu.
Just a handful.
Qiu Wu is already the second-class maid next to the head of the house. Even the first-class maid next to the concubine is not comparable. Mo Mei's so-called support is just a promise to her to have a chance to climb into bed - she has her first concubine.
Room, are you still worried about not having a second one?
What a pair of shameless people working together.
Qiu Wu was so frightened that he knelt down, hugged Ye Zhenzhen's thigh and began to beg for mercy: "Madam, I know I was wrong. I was blinded by lard and bewitched by Mo Mei. I am just an accomplice.
Come on, please treat this slave lightly."
Ye Zhenzhen looked calmly and looked directly at Aunt Cui: "These two are your old servants, everything is at your disposal."
Aunt Cui was very angry after hearing this disgusting thing. Seeing Qiu Wu acting like this again, she became even more furious. She quickly asked her mother-in-law to pull her away and said repeatedly: "My Cui family doesn't have this kind of thing."
We are rich and ambitious slaves, this trend cannot last forever, come here, call Ren Yazi and sell them all."
When Qiu Wu heard this, he immediately became paralyzed with fear and cried loudly. However, his mouth was quickly gagged and taken away by the mother-in-law. The maids present were frightened and their faces turned pale and they even breathed lightly.
After dealing with Diao Nu, she let out a bad breath. Aunt Cui's anger subsided a little. She held the other victim's hand and said comfortingly: "Zhen'er, my mother can't forgive you for this. Please relax and take good care of yourself."
With my mother here, I will never let those foxy girls take the opportunity to cause trouble."
This sentence was equivalent to a guarantee, which made Aunt Ye, who had not slept all night and came early to wait for the results, let out a long sigh of relief.
After what happened last night, she realized the rules of a wealthy family. When the wife got pregnant, she had to arrange for a maid to be the male master's wife. Those maids took the opportunity to jump out, just to smooth things over.
I heard that her father-in-law also had a marriage relationship back then. She was afraid that her family would feel sorry for her son, so she would give her son a marriage relationship once the matter was over. Then her daughter would be wronged. But now it seems that her mother-in-law still loves her daughter.
The first smile of the day appeared on Ye Zhenzhen's face: "Thank you, mother."
In fact, she is not worried at all about Aunt Cui trying to steal someone. Cui Weizhen has the tools to commit crimes. As long as he doesn't want to, who can force him?
She is happy now because she got her wish and finally got rid of Mo Mei's time bomb.
Ye Zhenzhen came back from the main room, leaning on the couch with all her strength, and told Qiu Feng: "After all, she is the one given by the old lady, and it is not good for her to die. You go to her room and clean up."
, roll some thin pieces and let her take them away."
Yuxiu was puzzled for a moment. It was too late for Madam to hate Mo Mei, so how could she be so kind as to clean up her delicates?
Qiu Feng was very smart and went without saying a word. He came back within half an hour, carrying a small package in his hand. He didn't know what frightened him. His face, which was still rosy when he left, turned pale.
She unfolded the package directly, revealing a handful of dazzlingly bright flowers, "Madam, it's saffron."
Yuxiu's eyes widened in horror, and her lips trembled so much that she could not speak. She finally knew why Madam was so guarded against Mo Mei. Such poisons for miscarriage, if Mo Mei mixed even a little bit of it into some soup and water, she would be poisoned again.
If the old lady gives it to her, the fetus in her belly will be in danger.
Ye Zhenzhen pressed her left hand on her right hand, which was still trembling uncontrollably on her lower abdomen. She took a deep breath, then managed to regain her composure, and said hoarsely: "Go find a secluded place outside and bury it."
