Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 30 Infighting
Biyun was startled, subconsciously turned to look at Xue Suqin, her face full of panic.

"No... no it's not me..."

"presumptuous!"

Grandma Sun scolded:
"How dare you not call yourself a slave in front of the master, there are no rules!"

Xue Suqin's face turned red immediately when she heard the sound, and hurriedly reprimanded Biyun for not being polite.

Only then did Biyun come to his senses, knelt down to kowtow to the old lady with an uneasy expression, screaming that he was wronged.

Mrs. Li respected the Buddha piously, her tired face was still there, and now she added a bit of solemnity.

"Huichun, tell me, what is going on?"

Huichun's body trembled a little, his face panicked, his heart seemed to be thrown into a frying pan.

How could she have thought that sending Buddha could also bring disaster?

It is true that she personally took out the jasper Avalokitesvara from the cage in the storeroom that day, but at that time she was only focused on going to the old lady of Hua'antang to ask for a reward, so how could she care to take a closer look?
This hot potato fell into her hands for no reason!
Huichun's heart beats like a drum, this Jasper Guanyin is a treasure of the royal family of Xiliang, and the old lady has such a temper, if she is really asked to take responsibility today, I'm afraid it won't just be a matter of eating a board, she will leave in the next afternoon It can make people sell it!
The more Huichun thought about it, the more frightened she became, bead-sized beads of sweat oozed from her forehead, a large area of ​​her back was wet, and her clothes were sticky and sticky, making her uncomfortable.But right now, she doesn't care about all this, and she only thinks quickly in her mind how to get rid of this fishy body.

It wasn't until Li Taiwei said something that Huichun seemed to have been rescued, and he could no longer care about others, and subconsciously confessed to Xue Suqin's maid, Biyun.

Xue Suqin's face immediately became very ugly, when Chao Huichun glanced over, there was shock in her eyes, only for a moment, and gradually turned into a cloud of resentment.

Huichun only felt his scalp tighten, and beads of sweat from his temples slipped down his chin, dripping onto the indigo skirt, and soon faded away.

"Nu Nu was ordered by the Princess to send Jade Guanyin to Hua'an Hall. After living for half a month, I met Sister Biyun and chatted with her in the house..."

"Sister Biyun asked about the origin of this Avalokitesvara, and I casually said a few words to her... Sister Biyun was very curious, so I begged my servant to take it out to have a look..."

"Old lady!"

Biyun's face turned pale with fright, and he said tremblingly:

"Old madam, I blame this servant for having shallow eyelids, but... But that day, I just held it in my hand and glanced at it! Huichun... Miss Huichun was also present, and this servant did not damage the Jade Guanyin at all! I beg old lady to learn .”

When Huichun saw that Biyun had pushed the matter away, his heart sank.

She bit her lips tightly, raised her eyes and glanced at Xue Suqin quietly, her heart seemed to be dripping with hot oil, and after a long while, she murmured:
"But Miss Xue Biao also met that Jade Guanyin slave when she went to the ear room to drink water, but she didn't stay in front of her..."

Xue Suqin's face was as white as paper when she heard it, and her slender body was shaking, as if she had been wronged by the world.

"Miss Huichun... I have never had any enmity with you in the past! How can you make false accusations against me..."

When Xue Shifang opened his mouth, tears fell, looking at Li Taiwei with a timid expression, he said:
"I know that the princess doesn't want to see me...but Suqin is born in a humble family and knows how to treat melon fields and plums, so why would she easily touch the old lady's belongings?"

Xue Suqin knelt softly towards Mrs. Li:
"May the old lady be the master for Suqin, and restore the innocence of Suqin's master and servant..."

"What Biaogu Xue means is that my name, Huichun, framed you on purpose?"

Mrs. Li sneered:
"To put it bluntly, if you sell your entire Xue family, I'm afraid it won't be as good as my Jade Avalokitesvara! Where did Biaogu Xue have the face and confidence to dare to stand in front of my grandmother? Splash dirty water on me!"

Mrs. Li's complexion is not very good at the moment, after all, Li Taiwei is the only granddaughter under her knee, and her status is so precious.

If Xue Suqin's words spread out, it would be a slap in the face to her, and to the Zhongyonghou's residence!Even... even slapped the royal family in the face!
"It's just that the hands and feet of servants don't matter, why do you need to think about it?"

Mrs. Li's tone was stiff.

Xue Suqin knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, her complexion turned pale, and said in a trembling voice:
"Yes... it was Suqin who lost her words in a moment of impatience... please don't blame the old lady... please don't blame the princess..."

"What's going on here?"

Mrs. Bai came in with Mother Qin, opened the curtain, and gave a gift to Mrs. Li. Her eyes turned around from the room and fell on Xue Suqin, whose face was full of tears.

"Mother, why are you kneeling here? But what happened?"

Mrs. Li sighed and waved to her.

Mrs. Bai got up and sat next to Mrs. Li. Nanny Sun ordered the maidservant to serve tea, and gave a general idea of ​​what happened.

Bai Shi listened for a while, her face changed slightly, she glanced at Hui Chun, then smiled lightly at Xue Suqin and said:

"There is no evidence for this matter at the moment, and most of the slaves are not careful. Cousin Xue doesn't need to be angry with the child, let alone take it to heart."

"Since this Avalokitesvara is my mother's favorite, my daughter-in-law will ask the craftsmen of Baoqing Pavilion to repair it carefully. It is guaranteed that there will be no traces! Mother, don't get angry, and pay attention to your body."

Bai's handling has always been thoughtful, and she is so slick that no one can make a mistake.As soon as this remark came out, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Princess, don't be upset. Now that something like this has happened, it's better to leave it to my aunt. Your mother is still pregnant. According to my aunt, it's not appropriate to go to war at this time. Seeing the blood, it's better to let this thing go. My son's maid, fine three months, as a punishment, do you think so?"

Li Taiwei looked at Bai's benevolent face, her mood was complicated for a moment, she concealed her doubts, and said softly:

"Second auntie, it's not about my niece, it's fine if it's something else, but it's the deadly Guanyin who sent the child..."

"There is no small matter in front of the Bodhisattva. After all, my grandmother begged for the Son-giving Avalokitesvara. My mother spread the good news just after arriving in the mansion...Everything is about fate. If someone does it maliciously and seeks my mother's bad luck, That can't be forgiven lightly!"

When everyone heard this, their hearts jumped in unison, and even the boldest ones looked directly at Xue Suqin.

Thinking of the flesh and blood in Zhaohe's belly, Mrs. Li's face also sank.

Upon hearing the sound, Bai's body froze for a moment:
"This...according to the wishes of the princess, how should we deal with it?"

Li Taiwei sullenly said:
"Since this happened because of Huichun's carelessness, there is no need to punish others. Tomorrow, Huichun will go to Yunye Nunnery to pray for my mother's blessings and get rid of the disaster for two months. He can only return home after he has finished his work."

"As for Cousin Xue... there is also a suspicion that she is not effective in restraining her servants... My mother is still pregnant, so she can't bear the slightest collision, so I'm afraid it's not suitable to live in the Spring Garden."

"Second Aunt, let me see if you can temporarily place Biaogu Xue in the Qiutang Courtyard, and let Second Aunt personally teach and take care of her, so as to save my grandmother from worrying about her every day."

Immediately, both Xue Shi and Bai Shi were taken aback, only Mrs. Li nodded and nodded:

"Don't fight anymore, just follow the princess's wishes, everything is about Zhaohe's body right now."

"In a few days, the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet will be held in the palace. Zhaohe's body may not be able to go there. Huiniang, you should work harder. Take sister Wei and sister Yao to go together. Carefully dress and jewelry, don't make any mistakes."

Everyone bowed their heads and said yes, but Mrs. Bai stood there in a daze, hesitating to speak, and only recovered after a while.
