The eldest daughter, she is proud and sassy

Chapter 365 The culprit
After Mrs. Cui fell silent, everyone in the room also fell silent.

After a while, Dr. Chen came out from the inner room. When he saw Mrs. Cui, he was taken aback for a moment, and then saluted respectfully: "Mrs. Cui."

"How is Ba Niang's injury? Where are the injuries?" Mrs. Cui asked directly.

Dr. Chen glanced at Xiao Shi who was full of worry, and said slowly: "Returning to Mrs. Ba Niang, there is only one injury on Ba Niang's body, and it is on her leg."

Hearing this, Xiao couldn't help asking: "Ba Niang, can her legs still walk?"

At that time, Cui Ba Niang's skirt was covered with blood, and she was lying motionless on the ground, and hearing the servant guess that Cui Ba Niang's leg seemed to be broken, Xiao Shi was very worried about Cui Ba Niang's leg.

Dr. Chen turned to Mrs. Xiao and told her with certainty: "Although Ba Niang's leg injury is serious, as long as she takes good care of her, it will not affect her walking in the future.

"It's just a [-]-day injury, Ba Niang will have to stay in bed for three months from now on, otherwise the leg injury will get worse."

After hearing these words, Xiao subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but the next moment, her face became ugly.

If Ba Niang hurt her leg, she couldn't go to the Prince Regent's Mansion for the banquet, so Yuan Niang would definitely find other young ladies to accompany her.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shi had a candidate in his heart to hurt Ba Niang, and that was Cui Siniang.

It's a pity that she has no evidence, so she can't make a rash identification.

After Mrs. Cui heard this, she ordered: "From today on, Ba Niang Cui will rest in bed in her room, and no one should disturb her.

"Wu Tong, you go to the school tomorrow and tell the master that Ba Niang will not go to class from tomorrow, and she will go to class after her leg injury recovers."

After finishing the order, Mrs. Cui asked Dr. Chen again: "When will Ba Niang wake up?"

Dr. Chen: "I have given Ba Niang some medicine, and I guess she will wake up in a quarter of an hour."

Mrs. Cui nodded slightly, told Dr. Chen a few words, and sent him away.

A quarter of an hour later, as Dr. Chen said, Cui Ba Niang woke up.

As soon as she woke up, she felt a pinprick pain in her leg, which made her cry out: "Ah, my leg hurts so much!"

Seeing Cui Ba Niang's painful appearance, Xiao Shi immediately walked over, grabbed her hand, and said softly: "Ba Niang, don't be afraid, Dr. Chen said that your leg is fine, as long as you take good care of it for three months, it will be back to normal. .”

Hearing this, Cui Baniang's worries dissipated, but her legs were still in pain, and her grievances rushed up, she held Xiao's hand instead, and cried:
"But, my leg is injured, so I can't go to the Prince Regent's Mansion, woohoo"

When Madam Cui heard this, she glanced at Cui Hengyue, and then asked, "Ba Niang, how did your leg hurt?"

Only then did Bainiang Cui realize that there were other people in the room. She looked behind Mrs. Xiao, and when she saw Mrs. Cui, she shrank back subconsciously, sat up hastily, and wanted to salute Mrs. Cui.

"Auntie."

This action involved a leg injury, and Cui Ba Niang grinned in pain.

Mrs. Cui quickly stepped forward and held Ba Niang Cui: "There is no need to be polite, you lie down first."

"Thank you, Auntie."

Seeing Cui Hengyue, Cui Baniang yelled at her: "Elder Sister, why are you here?"

Before Cui Hengyue could answer, Xiao said to her daughter: "It was Yuan Niang who found out that there was something wrong with the rockery, and then asked Xianghe to look for you in the rockery, but unexpectedly found you.

"What a blessing!"

Hearing this, Cui Ba Niang looked at Cui Hengyue and said, "Sister, thank you for your rescue, otherwise I would be here now."

As she spoke, Cui Baniang's tears welled up, and she couldn't say anything after that.

Cui Hengyue was heartbroken, and softened her voice: "Sister, don't say that. As the eldest sister, it's my fault that I didn't protect you well."

"Elder Sister is serious, it's my fate." Cui Ba Niang lowered her head, looking very lonely.

Hearing this, Mrs. Cui had already guessed the matter in her heart, but she couldn't figure out who was the culprit who hurt Cui Ba Niang.

She was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Ba Niang, who hurt your leg?"

"Yes"

As soon as Cui Ba Niang opened her mouth, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps outside, and she couldn't help but look towards the door.

Everyone in the room looked towards the door, wondering who was coming.

The next moment, Mrs. Liu appeared at the door and saw Mrs. Cui sitting on the top seat, she hurried in: "Sister-in-law, why are you here?"

Liu's heart was very disturbed.

Ba Niang lived in the third room with her, but news spread that the eldest lady went to the west courtyard before her. If the eldest lady knew about these things, she might be punished again.

Except for Cui Hengyue, everyone in Sanfang saluted Mrs. Liu one after another.

Mrs. Cui interrupted them, her tone was indifferent: "The third lady came just in time, I was about to ask Ba Niang who hurt her leg, since you are here, let's listen together."

Then, he turned to Cui Ba Niang and asked again: "Ba Niang, who hurt your leg?"

"I" Cui Baniang hesitated.

Mrs. Cui looked softly and said patiently: "Don't be afraid, I'm here for everything, I won't let others bully you, if you have anything to say, just say it, I'll make the decision for you."

Cui Ba Niang was shaken.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu persuaded: "Yes, Ba Niang, if you have anything to say, just say it directly, and your father and I will make decisions for you."

Hearing this, Cui Ba Niang's face turned even paler.

Her father obeyed Liu's words, how could he give her justice?
Thinking about this, Cui Ba Niang shook her head: "I didn't see the person who hurt me, I only know that someone hit my leg with a thick wooden stick, and then I fainted."

Mrs. Cui's face darkened: "Ba Niang, you really didn't see the person who hurt you?"

"I"

Cui Ba Niang wanted to cry a little, she squeezed Xiao Shi's hand lightly, and looked at Xiao Shi with help-seeking eyes.

Seeing her daughter like this, Xiao immediately understood.

It seemed that her guess was correct.

But the daughter's concerns are not unreasonable. After all, they are members of the third bedroom. Even if the eldest lady helped them this time, there is no guarantee that she will help her every time in the future.

What's more, Da Fang and San Fang have never dealt with each other.

Xiao Shi was very tangled.

Standing aside, Cui Hengyue saw that their mother and daughter were so entangled, so she turned to Mrs. Cui and said to her, "Auntie, I found something in the rockery where Ba Niang was injured. It should be left by the murderer."

As soon as the words came out, everyone looked over in unison.

Cui Hengyue took out something from her purse, put it in her palm, and held it up for everyone to see.

When Liu Shi saw the gleaming ruby ​​lying in Cui Hengyue's palm, her face immediately changed.

At this time, there was an exclamation in the room, and someone pointed to the ruby ​​and said, "Isn't this Siniang's thing? Could it be?"

The words behind were stuck in the throat.

Liu immediately said: "You read it wrong, it's not Siniang's."

She defended Cui Siniang with her mouth, but she scolded Cui Siniang severely in her heart: This stinky girl actually left such a conspicuous thing behind, she couldn't wash it off even if she jumped into the Yellow River
