step by step

Chapter 118 Powerless to parry
Mrs. Xue trembled slightly when she heard the words, and said repeatedly: "It's not my fault, she fell it herself!"

"Did you fall by yourself?" Ye Zhengping laughed back angrily, and said coldly, "Madam Xue, do you really think I, Ye Zhengping, am a fool? This is clearly a play you directed and acted yourself!"

"Commander Ye." Lian Luo helped Xi Yun up and walked forward, "When my subordinates entered the door, they met this girl who was about to hit the door and commit suicide."

Although he didn't recognize this face, but seeing the same distressed appearance on her body as Mrs. Ye, he thought that the two should be related.

Sure enough, when Ye Zhengping saw the miserable child in Lian Luo's arms, his expression changed instantly.

He naturally recognized who this was, but he couldn't believe that the most powerful maid in Ye Mansion was tortured into such a ghostly appearance!

"What did you do to Fugui?" Ye Zhengping said in a cold tone.

Mrs. Xue's complexion suddenly changed, and panic flashed in her eyes, "Fugui has become like this, I just found out about it just now! If you don't believe me, ask Steward Xue!"

Seeing this, Steward Xue quickly echoed: "Yes, Commander Ye, the old lady also asked a few women to help the lady over for diagnosis and treatment!"

When he told a lie, his face was full of sincerity, and if the people present didn't know the inside story, they would have believed it to be true.

Hearing this, Ye Zhengping glanced at the water stains that hadn't dried up on the ground, and a look of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

Now he has fully guessed that Mrs. Xue must be behind the scenes!

"Mrs. Xue, could it be that the water also ran onto Fugui himself?!"

"Commander Ye, what do you mean by that?" Mrs. Xue's heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to be calm and said, "Fugui is my daughter-in-law. I love her and love her, so how could I pour water on her on purpose?!"

At this time, an old man staggering hurriedly walked in from the main entrance, "I'm late!"

Old Qi was leaning on a wooden stick, dressed in dust and dust, his face was a little red from the scorching sun.

Seeing that Mr. Qi seemed to have injured his legs and feet, Lian Luo hurriedly stepped forward to help him.

Mr. Qi walked into the courtyard profusely with sweat, and immediately stopped and said anxiously: "Commander Ye, don't trust their words! Madam was imprisoned for three days, and what happened now is all thanks to them!"

Butler Xue quickly retorted: "Old Qi, what do you mean by that? The old lady is extremely benevolent to her wife and loves her very much on weekdays. How could she harm her wife!"

Ye Zhengping looked at Mrs. Xue sharply, with a strong anger brewing on his face, like a dark cloud before a heavy rain.

"Oh? Let's put it this way, in the past three days, no one in the Ye Mansion has seen Mrs. Xue attacking Fugui?" His tone was light, and if it wasn't for the gloom on his face that was about to erupt, people would not be able to detect it. anger.

Mrs. Xue flinched, not knowing how to explain for a moment.

Almost all the people present in this yard were her people, but she didn't have the confidence to let everyone change their mouths for her.

Ye Zhengping made a decision in his heart, he didn't want to talk nonsense with her anymore, and handed Ye Fugui over to Lian Luo who was beside him, "Two doctors, please come, and take Madam and Xiyun down for a careful diagnosis and treatment. I'll come here after I'm done! "

He looked at Ye Zhaoyan, who was soaked in blood in his white clothes, "Zhaoyan, you go too, there are me and Old Qi here!"

Ye Zhaoyan looked at Ye Zhengping, who was brimming with anger, and walked away holding his mother's shoulders.

Seeing that Ye Zhengping was protecting Ye Fugui, Mrs. Xue acted as if she had put the blame on her, and immediately became anxious, "Commander Ye, don't wrong anyone! Fugui's injuries have nothing to do with the old man!"

"Grandmother, do you still want the people in this yard to testify against you?" Ye Zhaoyan turned to look at her after hearing the words, his eyes were as cold as a knife, "Unless these servants are all blind!"

When the servants in the yard heard the words, their faces showed horror, and their eyes scanned Ye Zhengping and the others timidly, feeling guilty.

Madam Xue's complexion suddenly changed.

She didn't expect that these servants are all soft bones, and they can't use their strength at key points!

"Madam Xue, what explanation do you have?!" Ye Zhengping asked coldly.

Old Mrs. Xue saw that the matter had come to this point, she felt overwhelmed, and said directly: "It's those maidservants who don't understand the rules and offended Fugui, which made her look like this, I will punish them severely!"

After finishing speaking, she turned around, waved to the hidden guards beside her, and said sharply: "Come on, bring those lowly slaves to the firewood room, teach them a good lesson, and then drive them out of Ye Mansion!"

"Yes, old lady!" The hidden guards immediately stepped forward, grabbed the maids and women, and walked towards the woodshed.

The maidservants screamed in agony.

"Madam, please forgive us!"

"Slaves don't dare anymore!"

When Mrs. Xue heard them begging for mercy, she was even more disgusted in her heart, "Hurry up and deal with them and send them out of the house!"

Seeing that Mrs. Xue didn't care about their life or death, the woman with the injured arm couldn't help saying excitedly: "Old lady, this servant is also for you."

"Shut up!" Mrs. Xue's face turned pale, and she snapped.

When Qi Lao saw this, his chest heaved with anger, "Is this old lady planning to beat you up and make them a scapegoat?!"

Seeing Mr. Qi dismantling her platform, Mrs. Xue suddenly became angry from embarrassment.

"Bitch slave, don't try to bite my old body!"

Hearing Old Qi's words, Ye Zhengping confirmed his guess even more, and couldn't help scolding angrily: "How did Fu Gui feel sorry for you? How could you abuse her like this?!"

The certainty in the words clarified his attitude, and he already believed that all this was caused by Mrs. Xue.

Mrs. Xue's complexion changed several times, but she still gritted her teeth, forcefully swallowed those words of insulting Ye Fugui, put on a pitiful expression, and said, "Commander Ye, don't misunderstand me! It's not about Fugui, but because she did something wrong and should be punished!"

"It's really the first time I've heard that Mrs. Xue, who has always been kind and generous, would violently punish her weak daughter-in-law, and almost killed her. It really surprised me!" Ye Zhengping laughed back angrily.

Seeing that Mrs. Xue was silent, he asked sharply again: "Mrs. Xue kept saying that she had done something wrong, how dare you ask her what she did wrong?!"

Mrs. Xue's face turned red and pale from the choking, and she hesitated for a long time, but she still couldn't find a suitable reason.

Although she doesn't like Ye Fugui, she has never wanted to get rid of her like today!
Could it be that he wanted to tell Ye Zhengping that he deliberately abused Ye Fugui by forcing Ye Fugui to reveal Ye Zhaoyan's whereabouts? !

If Ye Zhengping believed in knowing the truth, he probably wouldn't let her go so easily!

Mrs. Xue was hesitating, but Steward Xue rolled her eyes and opened her mouth to help her: "Commander Ye, the old lady just let her go because of her wife, causing her to wander out and disappear for many days. This is the only way to deal with it impartially and to impose minor punishments."

"Deal with justice? Slight punishment?!"

Ye Zhengping sneered, "Steward Xue, I don't think you need to be a housekeeper anymore! As a lackey of the Xue family, he speaks so recklessly in the Ye Mansion, what qualifications do you have to be the butler of the Ye Mansion?!"
