The lucky girl in the village has a good way of making money.

"Miss Li, the bathroom is just ahead. We'll be there soon. Don't worry."

Vanilla was leading the way calmly in front, looking back at Pomegranate from time to time. She saw that Pomegranate was also walking at a leisurely pace, and her face looked calm and unhurried, without a trace of urgency. She couldn't help but wonder, why hasn't the effect of the medicine started yet?

As instructed by the young lady, she deliberately took Miss Li to take a detour and not get to the bathroom so quickly, just to prevent the drug from taking effect and causing trouble.

But she was not in a hurry, and the other party was even less anxious than her. It was really strange.

"I'm not in a hurry." Shi Liu saw her expression and said that she was not in a hurry, but she was also anxious in her heart. How should she react? Diarrhea? Coma? Or what kind of medicine?

What if I accidentally react wrongly?
But thinking that Luo Qianqian was certain that she would go to the toilet, it must be related to going to the toilet, so it was diarrhea?

Thinking of this, Pomegranate suddenly cried out.

"Miss Li, what's wrong with you?" Vanilla looked over nervously, with a hint of expectation in her eyes, "Are you feeling unwell?"

Shi Liu covered her stomach, seeming to find it hard to speak: "Haven't you reached the bathroom yet? I..."

When Vanilla saw her holding her stomach like this, a hint of joy suddenly flashed in her eyes. The medicine was finally taking effect!
But he said anxiously, "Don't worry, Miss Li, the bathroom will be here soon."

However, a quarter of an hour later, it still hadn't arrived.

"Miss Vanilla, why do I remember that we just walked this road?"

"Miss Li, you must have remembered it wrongly. The scenery in our house is similar, and many of the roads are the same. It's easy for someone who is not familiar with it to make the wrong choice!"

As Vanilla said this, she turned to look at Pomegranate and saw that she had been holding her stomach. However, a quarter of an hour had passed and there was still no reaction. She wondered how anyone could resist diarrhea?
"How long will it take to get to the clean room?"

“It’s here, it’s here.”

We had already gone around in circles for several times, and if we continued to go around, even a fool would have realized that something was wrong. Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of a water-green figure behind the pillar giving her a wink, and Vanilla decisively led the way to the right path.

Soon, Xiangcao pointed to the front and said, "Miss Li, this is the bathroom."

Shi Liu looked around. This place was very secluded and obviously not a place where other guests would be brought to wash their hands. But she didn't say anything and lifted her skirt to go into the bathroom.

The bathroom in a wealthy family is different. It is cleaned very cleanly, as if it was newly built and had never been used. It is a separate room with a closed door, and inside is a red-painted toilet, similar to a toilet.

But compared to the toilet, Shi Liu still prefers squatting.

I took another look in the bathroom and found that there was no toilet paper or anything like that. With so many distinguished guests today, which host could make such a mistake?

I guess it was intentional.

I kept taking her around in circles, hoping that she would have diarrhea. A little girl with diarrhea on her body, wow, that scene was so beautiful.

But I found that I didn't succeed. Since she was so good at holding it in, I took away the toilet paper and let her go to the bathroom without any toilet paper?
"Is the sister outside there?" she called out tentatively.

Unfortunately, it was quiet outside and no one responded.

Shi Liu was certain that what she thought was correct and that the other party wanted to trick her in this way.

It is possible that she will deliberately find excuses to delay Zhu Fudong from coming to see her, and other guests who want to come to the bathroom will probably not be brought here.

No one knew she was here. She went to the toilet but had no toilet paper. No one could help her. She could only sit on the toilet like a fool, naked, cold and sad, waiting for someone to come and save her and bring her toilet paper.

By then, Luo Qianqian would see that the time was right and would probably bring a group of people to "find" her, and then see with their own eyes how miserable she was.

Wow, how fun is this?
But unfortunately, she didn't really want to have diarrhea - but it was quite cold, and the cup of tea she had just poured into her sleeves, and the breeze blowing over her was so refreshing.

Shi Liu immediately opened the door and prepared to go out.

But as soon as the door opened, everything went dark in front of her and a gust of wind blew over. She instinctively raised her fist to block it, but was knocked back repeatedly.

The other party immediately rushed in and hit her on the back of the head with a knife.

Before she lost consciousness, Shi Liu's inner voice started to shout: Hey, hey, hey? Why don't you play by the rules?
-

"What did you say? Shi Liu is missing?" Old Madam Luo's blood boiled. "Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on her? How could you let her disappear?"

"Miss Li wanted to wash her hands, and I wanted to follow her, but she wouldn't let me. She just asked me to stay and wait for her maid to come back with clothes and then take her to the bathroom to find Miss Li. But later, when I waited for Miss Li's maid Fudong and went to the bathroom together, Miss Li was not there, and Xiangcao was not seen either." Xueyan knew she had failed in her duty and hurriedly explained.

Madam Luo took a deep breath and ordered Xuehu: "Go and bring the second girl and the vanilla!"

Mrs. Luo San's face suddenly changed. "Old Madam, Miss Li is missing. What does it have to do with Qianqian? She is responsible for entertaining these girls today. They are all good-looking, but she has legs. Who knows where Miss Li has gone?

It's hard for him to attend such a banquet, so he wanted to get on a high branch and become a phoenix, so he sneaked away to Mozhuxuan!"

Just now in Yuchun Pavilion, Xueyan came in hurriedly and whispered something to the old lady. The old lady walked out with a changed face. She thought something had happened!

She was busy trying to appease the guests who were chasing after her, but she didn't expect it to be just this kind of thing. Even if something happened to a merchant girl from the countryside in this mansion, it would be easy to explain. She was afraid that the girl had ulterior motives and did something ugly, which would bring shame to the reputation of their Luo family!

It’s all the old lady’s fault. Why send an invitation to a banquet like this to a girl who is not presentable?

Even if she has a good relationship with the Liu family, she is just a business partner and she is not the daughter of the Liu family!

Madam Luo said angrily: "Shi Liu is not that kind of person!"

After that, he didn't say anything else, just asked Xuehu to hurry and bring the person over. Shi Liu was missing, it must be Qianqian's fault.

It was her negligence. She should have let Madam Lu follow Shi Liu earlier.

I hope nothing will happen to Shi Liu, otherwise, how can she explain to A Yan?
Not long after, Luo Qianqian came in with Vanilla.

Mrs. Luo asked her directly: "Where is Shi Liu? Hand her over quickly!"

Luo Qianqian looked innocent, "Grandma, what are you talking about? What happened to Miss Li? Just now, after reciting poems in the pavilion, my granddaughter went to wash her hands. When I came back, I didn't see Miss Li. I thought she left first."

"You are such a grown-up girl, how can you be so full of lies?" Old Madam Luo said with a straight face, "Let me ask you one more question, do you really not know where the pomegranate is?"

"Grandma, I really don't know! How could you think of me like this?" Luo Qianqian shook her head desperately, tears of grievance falling from her eyes.

This made Mrs. Luo San very distressed, and she was about to join in.

Madam Luo glared at her and stopped her from speaking. She turned around and asked Xiangcao, "You were the one who took Miss Li to the bathroom. Tell me, where is Miss Li?"

Xiangcao said hurriedly, "Madam, it was true that I led Miss Li the way, but after we arrived at the bathroom, Miss Li sent me away and didn't let me wait, saying that she knew the way back and I could go back by myself later. How could I not obey the guest's instructions? So I had no choice but to leave first."

What he said made sense and seemed to be fine, but Mrs. Luo had lived to such an old age and had met so many people, how could she not see Vanilla's evasive look?
"Come here, drag Xiangcao out and give her twenty strokes of the cane, and then get the pawnbroker to sell her entire family!"

When Xiangcao heard this, her face changed drastically, "Madam, spare my life! Second Miss, save this slave girl!"

Luo Qianqian looked incredulous, "Grandma, grandma, Vanilla has been serving me since she was little. I am used to her serving me. You can't sell Vanilla!"

Mrs. Luo San was also shocked. "Madam, Xiangcao's parents have been serving us for a long time. Even if they have no merits, they have worked hard. How can we just sell them off? Wouldn't this make the people below us feel disappointed?"

Old Madam Luo said with a stern face, "Why keep this servant who has wronged her master and lied to her superiors and subordinates if not selling her off? Madam Lu!"

"Yes!" Madam Lu responded immediately and called two servants in to drag Xiangcao out to be beaten with a stick.

Vanilla was frightened when she saw that the old lady did not listen to the girl and the lady's pleas and was determined to kill her.

She doesn't want to be beaten or sold out -

"Madam, I say! I say! Please forgive me!"

"Vanilla!" Luo Qianqian shouted immediately and glared at Vanilla fiercely.

Xiangcao didn't care about that. She had to protect herself first. The servant let her go after being instructed. She knelt down and crawled towards Old Madam Luo. "Old Madam, I'll tell you! I'll tell you everything, but you have to promise not to sell me—"

Madam Luo said, "As long as you tell the truth, I will have someone send your family to work on the farm afterwards."

After getting the promise that he would not go back to serve the girl, Xiangcao felt relieved. She no longer had to worry about betraying the girl and being angry with her.

She immediately told him everything: "Second Miss, ordered me to put croton powder in Miss Li's tea, and then asked me to lead Miss Li to the bathroom, and asked me to deliberately lead Miss Li to walk around a few more times so that Miss Li could not hold it and had diarrhea. Then, she would show up with other people to laugh at Miss Li's joke.

But I took Miss Li around for a long way and she still could not bear it, so she had to follow the second method we agreed on. I took Miss Li to the bathroom in Zhuchun Garden.

The toilet paper and other items in the bathroom had been taken away in advance. I watched Miss Li go in and left immediately.

The second girl said, let Miss Li be left alone for a while, it would be best if she shouted until her voice became hoarse and no one responded to her, then when the time is right, let the servant appear and pretend that she just left because she had a stomachache - then take Miss Li to the pavilion in the center of the lake, where
However, when I calculated the time and went to the bathroom, Miss Li was no longer there! I searched everywhere but couldn’t find Miss Li. "

"Madam, this is what happened. I really don't know where Miss Li went!"

Old Madam Luo listened to Xiangcao's words and looked at Luo Qianqian with extreme disappointment. She really didn't expect that Qianqian, who was a little spoiled on weekdays, could be so vicious and plot against others like this!

Shi Liu is her relative from her mother's side, and she was the one who invited her to the banquet. How dare Qian Qian take her, her grandmother, seriously?

Mrs. Luo San never expected that her daughter would do such things, and she was stunned for a moment.

Luo Qianqian shrank her neck as her grandmother stared at her, but she said stubbornly, "Grandma, it's Li Shiliu's fault. Don't be fooled by her! She was very pretentious and even seduced Princess Zhao Zhao's fiancé! This matter today was all Princess Zhao Zhao's idea. Princess Zhao Zhao asked me to teach her a lesson!"

Madam Luo's blood boiled and she looked at Luo Qianqian as if she was a fool. Princess Zhaozhao didn't even know Qianqian, so why would she ask Qianqian to do this?
However, it was said that Miss Shi San had a close relationship with Princess Zhaozhao - there was no doubt that she was using Qianqian as a weapon!
If this matter gets out, Miss Shi San will not be involved at all, and Qianqian will have a bad reputation.

Although there are not many ladies here today, the relatives in the capital are complicated, and everyone is related to everyone else. Shi Liu's maid just cried outside, and those ladies all know that a girl got into trouble in Luo's house today. After asking around, everyone knows that Qianqian targeted Shi Liu today————

Who would be willing to marry a daughter-in-law who schemes against others like this?
As for the story that Shi Liu seduced Princess Zhao Zhao's fiancé, she didn't believe it at all.

He took a deep breath, "So, where did you take the pomegranate? Hand it over quickly, otherwise, I will send you to Jing'an Temple to repent! You know, once grandmother makes a decision, your father will not oppose me."

Luo Qianqian's face changed drastically, and she hated Li Shiliu in her heart. Her grandmother actually wanted to send her, an outsider, to Jing'an Temple!

But despite the resentment in her heart, she quickly admitted her mistake on the surface, "Grandma, I know I was wrong, and I won't do it again in the future! But, I really don't know where Miss Li went!"

This was true. She had been waiting at the pavilion in the middle of the lake for Xiangcao to bring Li Shiliu over so that they could proceed to the next step. But she never expected that Xiangcao would come to tell her that Li Shiliu was missing!

She originally thought that Li Shiliu had discovered her intention, so she sneaked back to Yuchun Pavilion, but when she came here she found out that Li Shiliu had not come back. Her maid was so anxious that her eyes were swollen from crying.

Seeing that she didn't look like she was lying, Mrs. Luo couldn't help but wonder, if Qianqian didn't take the pomegranate away, then where did the pomegranate go?

After thinking about it, Madam Luo immediately asked Nanny Lu to gather everyone in the house and search the whole house thoroughly, determined to find the pomegranate.
