Resourceful beauty

Chapter 29 bite back

When Fang Ruyu and others returned to King Qi's mansion, Su Yuan had already learned what happened from the maid Fang Ruyu sent back in advance.

Looking at Fang Ruxuan's calm face, Su Yuan couldn't help but think again that Fang Ruxuan had frightened herself twice because of her appearance. 1000 taels of silver.

Thinking like this, although she still cared about the face of Prince Qi's mansion, Su Yuan hoped from the bottom of her heart that this matter was true.

Prince, sister, you have to take a good look at what kind of embarrassing things you have done to your beloved daughter.

Thinking sinisterly, Su Yuan glanced at Fang Ruxuan, and couldn't help looking at Mrs. Qiu, "Mrs. Qiu, my daughter is visiting your house, and I'm bothering you."

Mrs. Qiu is over [-] years old, and she is well maintained. She always smiles when she talks, and she seems to be very easy to get along with.

After hearing Su Yuan's words, Mrs. Qiu hurriedly replied with a smile: "Princess, you are welcome. It is the fortune of the Qiu family to invite a few ladies. Besides..."

After a pause, Mrs. Qiu looked back at Fang Ruyu and Qiu Shumin, and continued: "Second Miss has a good temperament, and it's rare for a young girl to fall in love with her. If that's the case, you should move around more."

After exchanging greetings, next, it should be the topic of today.

Su Yuan turned her head and glanced at Zhao Nanny who was standing behind her. Zhao Nanny nodded and waved away all the idlers in the hall.

"What the hell happened?"

Su Yuan asked in a deep voice.

Fang Ruyu pursed her lips tightly, Fang Ruhui's eyes looked around agilely, Fang Ruhua lowered her head and couldn't see her expression, while Fang Ruxuan was still as calm as when she entered the palace.

Seeing Fang Ruxuan's expression, Qiu Shumin squinted at her angrily, and asked the ladies to guess the riddles in a crisp voice. Fang Ruxuan was willing to accept the bet and went to Wutong Garden to apologize to her brother, and then she found a piece of lake green bellyband falling out of his arms. Things have been said.

At the end, Qiu Shumin's cheeks were slightly pink.

Mrs. Qiu patted her daughter's hand, looked at Su Yuan with some embarrassment on her face, and said, "Princess, the Qiu family cannot escape the blame for what happened, but fortunately, everyone who knows about it is here, and we can It is within the scope of control, so I ask the princess to make a decision and deal with this matter as soon as possible, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

She already knew what happened, but Su Yuan pretended not to know. She just wanted to see Fang Ruxuan make a fool of herself. She looked at Mrs. Qiu knowingly, "But I don't know, what fell from the young master of your mansion involved me in Prince Qi's mansion." Miss? Mrs. Qiu, the same thing happened twice, can you believe there is such a coincidence?"

Seeing that Su Yuan brought up the matter of the Lantern Festival again, Mrs. Qiu's face lost her temper.

The slap mark on Qiu Ming's face took several hours to disappear after applying ice cubes, not to mention, but the sad appearance of his son crying in her arms made her, a mother, feel like a knife twisted her heart If Fang Ruyu was not the young lady of Prince Qi's mansion and dared to beat her son, she would have given an order to drag him out and kill him with a stick.

Do you really think that Li Daitao is stiff, and it is enough to push out a maid to top the bag?
Mrs. Qiu sneered, turned her head to a daughter-in-law standing behind her and said, "Show that thing and show it to Princess Qi."

The daughter-in-law nodded, took out the lake green bellyband from her sleeve, and handed it to Su Yuan.

The top-quality lake-green brocade is embroidered with Taoyao Yaozhuo with pink silk threads. The exquisite embroidery seems to be seen somewhere.

Thoughts flashed through her mind, Su Yuan signaled Nanny Zhao to put away the bellyband, then looked at Mrs. Qiu and asked, "Since Mrs. Qiu came prepared, she must have found out the origin of this thing."

Mrs. Qiu nodded, as if she was a little embarrassed to speak. After hesitating for a while, she said hesitantly, "It belongs to Miss Fang Six."

"what?"

Fang Ruyu turned pale with shock, and cried out involuntarily.

Fang Ruxuan's reputation might be ruined if such a private thing as a bellyband fell into the hands of a foreigner.

"Sixth sister, how could you do such a thing, you really... hey..."

With a face full of complaints, Fang Ruyu's expression was extremely anxious, just like a elder sister who was worried about her younger sister.

"Damn..."

Su Yuan reprimanded sullenly, not knowing who she was talking about, and then, she looked at Mrs. Qiu, "There is no proof, no proof, you want to wrong Ruxuan by showing such a thing, Mrs. Is my Prince Qi's mansion easy to bully?"

"I dare not..."

Standing up and prostrating in panic, Mrs. Qiu said with reason and evidence: "The lotus garden guesses riddles. All the ladies have sent a maid beside Miss Fang Six. After the maid beside Miss Fang Six went to the greenhouse, she went to the back garden alone. I gave this bellyband to a little girl in my house, and asked her to give it to my son. Although my son is a bit stupid, he has a very good memory. He has been telling me about Miss Six's temperament since he came back from the Lantern Festival. Well, not to be mean to him like everyone else..."

Looking back at Fang Ruxuan, seeing that she was not flustered at all, Mrs. Qiu was surprised, but continued to say without stopping: "I heard that it was given by Miss Six, and she put it away like a dog. Later, Fang Miss Six went to apologize on behalf of Miss Second. Seeing Miss Six ignoring him, Gouzi became angry. The little girl coaxed him for a long time, saying that if she gave Miss Six her favorite things, Miss Six would pay attention to him. So , Gouzi wanted to give his glazed stone to Miss Six, and then, the things in his arms fell out, and the little girl saw it."

"The matter is of great importance, so the little girl told this concubine, who has already brought the little maid who handed over the things, and let the concubine dispose of it."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Qiu looked up at Su Yuan.

Now it seems that things have become very clear.

Fang Ruxuan gave her bellyband to Su Ye, and Su Ye gave it to the little maid in Wutong Garden, and asked her to hand it over to Qiu Ming. Qiu Ming put it away like a treasure, but in the end, it accidentally fell out, causing the Qiu Shumin and Fang Ruxuan saw it, and they got involved in this matter.

"Mrs. Qiu, get up first. The consequences of this matter are serious, and I can't just listen to your side of the story."

Signaling Mrs. Qiu to get up, Su Yuan said while turning her head to look at Fang Ruxuan and said, "Ruxuan, what do you say?"

Fang Ruxuan looked at Mrs. Qiu with a smile, "If I say that I have never done such a thing, and my maid has never seen that little maid in the Qiu residence, Mrs. Qiu will definitely bring her up to confront her. At that time, our master and servant If people don't admit it, the little maid will touch the pole and die, and use her death to prove that she didn't tell a lie. At that time, there will be no proof of death, and this matter will be planted on my head. Even if I have a long mouth, I can't explain it clearly Mrs. Qiu, am I right?"

From the beginning to the end, the most critical person in this matter was the little maid who handed over the bellyband.

She gave the things to Qiu Ming. Qiu Ming has only seen her. As long as she is dead, Fang Ruxuan and Su Ye's words will become sophistry and cannot be trusted by others.

Mrs. Qiu was startled, while Qiu Shumin was stunned. She didn't expect that Fang Ruxuan would guess the direction of the matter.

"But...but, the truth is like this."

Mrs. Qiu said with some puzzlement, Qiu Shumin, who was sitting beside Mrs. Qiu, raised her eyes to Fang Ruyu who was directly opposite, and the two of them panicked.

This matter was discussed between the two of them, and even in front of her mother, Qiu Shumin didn't dare to tell the truth, she only said that a bellyband fell out of her brother's arms, and after checking, she found Fang Ruxuan.

Qiu Shumin originally thought that when the dust settled, she would confess to her mother at that time. At that time, it would be her own fault. The matter between Fang Ruxuan and her brother had already been settled, and she could make up for it.

But now, what should we do?
Before Qiu Shumin could think of a way to deal with it, Fang Ruxuan asked curiously in her ear, "Can you let me see that bellyband? I don't know when I have such brightly colored clothes."

Fang Ruxuan's words seemed to remind Qiu Shumin, Qiu Shumin said loudly: "Since Miss Fang Liu does not admit it, it is better to start with this physical evidence."

"That's right, Sixth Sister should recognize my own things, right?"

Fang Ruyu said in a low voice.

On the side, Fang Ruhui looked disapproving, "Didn't you hear that Sixth Sister said she didn't have brightly colored clothes? It can be seen that she doesn't intend to admit it. I think it's better to arrest all the people in Shuyuxuan and interrogate them one by one." , the palace is so big, and there are servants with shallow eyelids and unclean hands and feet."

The two sisters sang together, as if they had already confirmed that the thing belonged to Fang Ruxuan, and that Fang Ruxuan would use the excuse that someone stole her things.

Fang Ruxuan just smiled and said nothing, stepped forward and took the bellyband from Mammy Zhao.

After reading it over and over several times, Fang Ruxuan handed the things back to Mother Zhao, and said with a smile, "There is no one in my room who is such a good embroiderer who can do such dexterous embroidery work. If the princess doesn't believe it, she can do it again." Look, or, show it to Second Sister and Fifth Sister, the maids with the best embroidery work in the palace are all beside you and them."

After finishing speaking, Fang Ruxuan turned around and walked back to her seat, and sat down slowly.

That confident look seemed to confirm that someone could see the origin of that thing and would not rely on her anymore.

Su Yuan looked suspicious, and stretched out her hand without looking back, and Mother Zhao hurriedly handed it over.

A leaf, a petal, and each fine stitch, the more Su Yuan looked at it, the more familiar it became. It seemed that there was a name on the edge of her mouth, but she just couldn't say it.

"Let's not say that I don't need such a bright color, even if I use it, I don't have such a good satin. It was a reward from the palace during the Chinese New Year. The princess gave all of it to the second sister and the fifth sister..."

Fang Ruxuan spoke softly and said with a faint smile.

Su Yuan's hands shook, and she couldn't help looking at Fang Ruyu.

Seeing that everyone in the hall was looking at her, Fang Ruhui was surprised, Fang Ruhua couldn't believe it, but Fang Ruxuan bent her mouth and lowered her head to drink tea. apron.

With just one glance, Fang Ruyu trembled uncontrollably.

　You said, should we betroth this evil spirit to Qiu Ming?Yes, no, yes, no... let's count the petals.
