Rebirth of the First Class

Chapter 91
Mrs. Xu answered with a smile: "If you talk about Xi Zhao, it's scary to be cold-faced. Don't talk about an aunt, even the old man is a little frightened." to be frank.

The second aunt buried her head low, and said timidly: "Madam Tai is right, this concubine is really terrified. If the young lady doesn't trust my concubine, then ignore this matter."

"If I greet people with a smiling face, others will inevitably say that I am too understated." Wei Xizhao sighed helplessly, "I am also imitating a cat and drawing a tiger, imitating my wife. Now I really don't know what to do."

When Xu got angry with Wei Xizhao, her attitude was stronger than Wei Xizhao's attitude at this time. Naturally, she couldn't argue with this, so she hurriedly brought the topic back to the topic: "Okay, okay, it doesn't matter what you do. , get down to business."

The second aunt spread out her palm and sent the jade finger to Wei Xizhao.

Wei Xizhao received it in his hand, stared at it for a moment, "This thing..." Then he said, "Tell me what's going on first."

The second aunt said: "Today, the fourth lady asked the third lady about painting skills, and it happened that my concubine was also there. The two sisters had some snacks later, but they were exhausted, so they fell asleep on the beauty's couch. The concubine covered the third lady. When I was wearing a blanket, I saw this jade ring finger slipping out from the neckline." After a pause, she pointed to the finger ring, "Missy has seen all kinds of novelty items, and you can tell at a glance that this is the style worn by men. And the appearance is very good, it looks like it has been worn for a long time. The concubine vaguely remembers seeing this item in the hands of Mr. Long. Even if it is not sure that it belongs to Mr. Long, the man's personal belongings are worn by the third lady. Why? I really can't think of any other explanation."

Wei Xizhao has been listening quietly, staring at the wrench in his hand.It was indeed something she had seen before, but at this moment, she absolutely couldn't admit it.After a brief silence in the room, she asked, "Are you finished?"

"Yes."

"What did Miss San say?"

The second aunt said: "Miss San opened her mouth to scold and beat her with her hand, and I have no way of asking, that's why I ordered my servants to forcibly bind Miss San."

"Oh! You silly girl." Wei Xizhao looked at Wei Xilong with emotion, "What's there to hide? So what if you told them the truth? It's not shameful, so how can you get me into trouble?"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was amazed, even Ji Qingcheng gave him puzzled looks, he really didn't know what she was up to... Well, why did you throw yourself into the right and wrong?
Wei Xizhao's astonishment was only momentary, then he lowered his head and decided to follow Wei Xizhao's eyes, and pretended to be dumb until the end without saying a word.

Mrs. Xu was the first to ask: "This matter is still related to you? Tell me what's going on."

Wei Xizhao looked at Second Aunt, "If you think about it, you should remember, right? In late March, the master ordered me and Xilong to go to another courtyard."

"I do remember." The second aunt couldn't pretend to be confused about something that the whole family knew.

"At that time, I was ordered by my father to bring back the dowry left by my mother. There are about ten boxes, and now it is placed in the wing room of Linglong Pavilion." Wei Xizhao looked calm, and when he said this, he took a sip of tea, "Because there were so many trivial things, Xi Teng and I spent the whole day sorting out in the other courtyard, and we didn't return until the next day."

Wei Xiqing couldn't hold back anymore, "But what does this have to do with this jade finger?"

"It's in an official kiln porcelain vase, and there are several exquisite small objects. As we all know, in the past, he was a bit of a boy, so he fell in love with this finger wrench at a glance. And because I heard that the texture is excellent, he and I'll ask for it." Wei Xizhao smiled embarrassedly, "I'm usually extravagant, and I don't care much about things outside of me, so I just gave it to her. After thinking about it, after all, it belonged to the ancestors of the Liu family, the master asked me to carefully Collect it, if you know that I don’t care about it, I’m afraid you’ll get angry, so let Xi Teng keep it carefully so that no one will see it. Who would have thought that this thing would cause trouble today.” Then, he locked his eyes on Second Aunt, “ I put them in the box in the wing room, and there are a few finger rings similar to this one. If you like it, I will give it to you some other day. I will ask Shen Xing to show you the detailed brochure later, mutton fat jade, Hetian jade and jadeite are available, you can choose as you like."

Ji Qingcheng and Wei Xiyun each applauded in their hearts... This is a completely fabricated lie, and the most amazing thing is that it is well-founded.Later, Ji Qingcheng discovered a characteristic of Wei Xizhao... the more unreasonable she was, the more she talked than usual, and her attitude became softer.

Wei Xiqing said timidly: "But...Even though the big sister's words are comprehensive, no one can prove it."

"Can't I prove what I said?" Wei Xizhao suddenly turned back to his original sternness, "Is the servant who stayed behind in the other courtyard counted as a witness? Is the detailed booklet counted as evidence? I stopped you to go to Linglong Pavilion to open the box and check." What? You don’t have to believe what I say, but what you see with your own eyes is also false?”

Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Xu looked at each other and sighed silently.This girl is too cunning, and her mind is spinning so fast, Second Aunt is busy for nothing.The things left by the Liu family are all in Wei Xizhao's hands. Naturally, there are many antiques and treasures of gold, silver and jade jewelry. Although there are not many things that men wear next to their bodies, it is still easy to find a few high-quality jade finger rings.

Wei Xizhao has now developed a good habit of being reasonable and unforgiving. After some scolding was effective, he started a new round of torture: "I really doubt your intentions. How could this thing slip out of the neckline? Who Will believe it! It’s clear that you guys did the body search rashly! Colluding to slander the third lady, how brave! I vaguely remember seeing it in Mr. Long’s hand? What is vague? Can you be sure?” He slammed the table and shouted, "what is going on?"

Second Auntie and Wei Xiqing froze in fright.

"Elder Sister," Wei Xilong raised his head and said, "They tampered with me during the refreshment, so I fell asleep and was searched by them. I'm just angry that they dared to make something out of nothing and do such a nasty thing , I don’t bother to answer their questions.”

"Madam, madam, eldest lady," said the second aunt, kneeling on the ground, "when I look at things, I will think that the third lady has an affair with a man, and it is really because of all the gossip before. The third lady has been punished by the master many times, The reason is all because of Mr. Long. Many people in the mansion have seen the two of them laughing at each other."
