Seeing the old lady's business-like attitude, Shaoyao's heart froze. She looked at Xie Songhua with concern, "Princess! You know this slave. I didn't hide the medicine from you before! You were there at that time."
I know this
Xie Songhua turned his eyes to her, but did not immediately respond. Instead, he thought for a while and said softly and comforted: "Don't be anxious, there is no reason to accuse people unjustly in the family, everyone is here! If you have anything, please explain it clearly.
, we are all watching!”
This meant that he didn't intend to speak for her. Shaoyao obviously didn't expect this. He looked at Xie Songhua dumbfounded, and then glanced at Xie Li.
However, he saw Xie Li comforting Aunt Huang and not looking at her at all.
"These were dug out of Miss Shaoyao's house, and some were found in her home," the butler asked respectfully with a calm look on his face, "the slaves really don't know much about these things, and they are really rare items."
, so... it’s better to bring it to your boss so that we can judge whether Miss Shaoyao has been wrongly accused."
Hearing what the housekeeper said, Shaoyao was a little stunned. Isn't it about the poison?
The old lady looked even more surprised, "What is worth making such a fuss about? Look at the child!"
Although today is a thorough investigation of everyone, after all, Shaoyao has been serving the old lady for many years.
Except for Aunt Shen, for the old lady, just a peony is the most appetizing thing. It was just for the prestige of Xie Yuncang and others in the family. In addition, many people have been blamed just now. There is no reason for her to give the family at this time.
The kids are causing trouble.
But when she heard that it was for some items, she felt a little unhappy. No matter how other people in the house fought with each other, she could turn a blind eye, but if she took this idea
If it hits her, that's absolutely unacceptable.
When Shaoyao heard this, she finally felt a little aggrieved on her face, "Old Madam!"
The housekeeper didn't feel unhappy about the old lady's mood at all. He just opened the box and said, "I'd better ask the old lady to take a look!"
With Peony's status, it is possible to get any kind of reward from the old lady. Even if there are things that are not given to his grandchildren, it is possible to give her a little bit.
Therefore, when the housekeeper asked her to look at it, she didn't pay much attention, but when she saw what was inside, her indifference immediately changed.
Because it involves Shouantang, other people don't dare to make noise at this time, let alone watch the excitement of Shaoyao.
So the housekeeper showed the box at an angle that only the old lady could see, and no one else moved forward.
But their eyes fell on the old lady's face. Seeing that her face suddenly darkened, they couldn't help but look confused. They looked at each other, not knowing what happened.
Shaoyao was kneeling on the ground. Because of the rules, he didn't dare to look up at Mrs. Xie's face. He just listened to the tone of Mrs. Xie's defense and thought that he had passed the test safely this time.
Unexpectedly, after the housekeeper finished speaking, the whole world seemed to have quieted down, which made Shaoyao's already calm heart suddenly become uneasy again.
After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement. She was hesitating, wondering whether she should try to look up and see what was going on.
Unexpectedly, she received a heavy blow on the head, and then the box that was originally held in the hands of others rolled down in front of her.
"I'll give you a chance to explain, what are these?!"
When those things with strange smells landed in front of everyone, everyone present took a step back in surprise.
Xie Sihua screamed out in surprise, "This...isn't this a spell!"
Xie Songhua looked at the things on the ground and felt as if he had lost his sense of reality.
Therefore, it is true that many people in ancient times would believe these things, even if they obviously seemed to be very nonsense.
The thing on the ground was none other than the witchcraft doll that she had often seen in later film and television works.
In fact, this thing does not have the so-called taboo feeling brought by its name.
Inside it is just a small doll, with the person's birthday and birth date written on it, and then a charm is nailed on it.
It's just that the doll in this box is a little weird, because the spell looks like it's written in blood.
The peony man was stunned, and her face suddenly turned pale. Almost immediately, she immediately denied it to the old lady, "No! Old lady, no! This was not done by the slave. How could the slave cast a spell on the old lady?
?The slave has never..."
"Isn't that right? Isn't there anyone in Shou'an Hall who can recognize your stitches?"
The old lady looked at the maid kneeling on the ground with cold eyes. At this time, her eyes no longer showed any protection for Peony, and she also lost the familiar kindness that Peony was familiar with in the past.
Some are just completely cold.
Aunt Shen picked up the stuffed doll without the old lady saying a word, and then carefully identified it for a long time, and then handed it to Vernal Equinox aside, who also did not dare to be careless at all.
It was passed to Xie Tu's hands again.
Xie Tu, who had always been soft-tempered in front of others, looked extremely ugly at this time. After she carefully inspected the doll several times, she threw it directly on Shaoyao's face. The needle poked on it made Shaoyao scream in fear.
He got up and quickly turned his head away.
However, Xie Tu used some strength because of the anger in her heart, and she couldn't completely avoid it. The tail of the needle quickly scratched across her face, leaving a bloodstain on her cheek.
"Old Madam! No, Old Madam. This slave's life was given by you, Old Madam. For so many years, I have devoted myself to you and never dared to slack off. How could I do such a thing?
Old madam, I can swear to God that there is absolutely nothing wrong with me..."
"You dare to say that this thing was not made by you? Since you believe this, then you make an oath. As long as you swear to God that this thing was not made by you, otherwise you will not die well, and you will fall into the eighteenth level of hell after death.
, we just believe you.”
The words were said by Xie Sihua. Such words would be a bit unconventional to say from the mouth of a lady, except for Xie Sihua.
Shaoyao was caught by these words. She couldn't deny it. She looked at Xie Sihua with a look of confusion on her face.
How could Mrs. Xie still not understand the person who had been following her for so long? When she saw her expression, she concluded that these things must have been made by Shaoyao.
"No need to say more, you are too dumb, just sell it to Ren Yazi!"
Mrs. Xie's words shocked everyone present, but no one asked for mercy, including the other maids and women in Shouantang who usually had a good relationship with Shaoyao.
This charge is no small matter. He murdered his master, and it was done in such a way.
If word spreads, it will cause great damage to Mrs. Xie's reputation.
What kind of master would make the maid he has followed for many years have such thoughts?
After the peony treatment is completed, the servants found to have problems in the yard can be considered clean.
Probably because she didn't expect such a thing to happen in her yard, Mrs. Xie looked even more tired.
In addition, it was already past lunch time, and it became even more apparent that everyone present was listless.
Xie Yuncang couldn't bear to see his mother acting like this, and immediately said: "Mother, will my son help you go back to rest?"
"No need, you still have your own things to do. Such chaos in the inner house is due to my overindulgence in daily life, and it has nothing to do with you gentlemen.
But those things are out of the house, you brothers need to check them out carefully, please get out!"
The old lady was clearly shocked, and everyone did not dare to stay here any longer. They all bowed respectfully and left.
Xie Li helped Aunt Huang go to her yard, but was stopped by Xie Yuncang.
"Come to Mengpoju."
There was no emotion in his tone, but it made Xie Li's whole body stiffen.
