Chapter 144: Caught in the act
"And I think the two of us will become very good friends, so whether you have something to ask me or not, I also want to come and talk to you."
"Chen Baixiang has many enemies. If I were really that weak, I would be gone long ago."
Qin Yueran also smiled at Mrs. Chen's directness.
"Mrs. Chen has a good personality, I like her very much, maybe we can really become friends."
"But I have one more thing I want to ask you. Is the woman standing next to you just now the concubine of this mansion? Is she pregnant?"
Mrs. Chen, who had a calm expression on her face, twitched her mouth for a moment after hearing this, but she quickly recovered.
"Yes, I wonder if Miss Qin asked her something?"
Qin Yuran nodded after getting the other party's affirmative answer.
"Don't worry, I'm not gossiping."
"This aunt of yours has bad intentions. I just want to remind you that even if we want to be friends, you have to be alive."
Then, Qin Yueran repeated what he had just heard to Mrs. Chen in front of her shocked look.
As Qin Yueran spoke, Mrs. Chen's face became colder.
"How dare she? Two fools who don't know their own limits."
"Ms. Qin, thank you for today. Don't worry, if this is true, we will definitely thank you very much."
"My name is Shen Jingting. You don't have to call me Mrs. Chen. You can just call me Jingting or Tingting. I really want to be friends with you."
"I feel like you have a kind of motivation that I aspire to have."
"Maybe I once had that feeling, but life smoothed it out later."
“I hope you can always keep your original intention.”
Qin Yueran didn't expect her to say that, because there seemed to be a big gap between her and his personality.
If it was her own personality that had led her to what she is now, it would be hard to imagine.
However, this is not the most urgent task right now. The two have become friends and will have many opportunities to chat in the future. Let's rescue Chen Baixiang first.
In fact, Qin Yueran was quite curious about what she would do, expose her in person or what?
After all, there is no paternity test in this era. If Shen Jingting just says that the child is the housekeeper's, Chen Baixiang may not believe it.
Even if I testify myself, it won't be of much use.
However, she soon found out what Shen Jingting would do, because shortly after she returned to the front yard, she heard a noise. Someone came to report that an assassin had entered the Chen family's backyard.
Chen Baixiang immediately took people to check it out, and the guests also liked to watch the fun, so most of them followed.
After all, if there really is an assassin at this time, and you don’t act proactively, what if the other party suspects that it was someone you sent?
In this way, everyone came to the gate of my aunt's courtyard in a mighty manner.
But unfortunately, the assassin was not caught, but two people who were hiding away were caught.
Qin Yueran didn't expect that Shen Jingting's idea was this. She wanted to destroy the impression of the two of them in Chen Baixiang's mind first, and then say something that the other party would be willing to believe.
I have to say this trick is quite clever. It seems that I still know too little about the infighting in the harem.
Although doing so would somewhat damage Chen Baixiang's reputation, it is the best way to solve the problem.
Besides, different things happen here every day, and people won’t always pay attention to this.
In fact, after Qin Yuran finished speaking, Shen Jingting came here in person and found that the two people were still in the yard and had not gone out, so she drugged them directly.
As for the servant who went to the front yard to look for someone, he was also bribed by Shen Jingting. She had already paid him enough to let her expose this matter.
Even if Chen Baixiang wanted to kill her, she wouldn't say anything.
Chen Baixiang looked at the scene in front of him and was so angry that he almost fell down on the spot.
After all, this housekeeper was someone he always trusted. Although he did not like his new concubine, he still valued her very much because she was pregnant with his child.
But today, such a thing happened in front of everyone, forcing him to deal with them.
When the two were brought out, they were still a little confused, but they soon came to their senses when the wind blew.
When they saw Chen Baixiang standing in front of them and so many onlookers, they were immediately scared out of their wits.
The two of them knelt down and begged for mercy, saying that someone had framed them.
The aunt even brought up the child in her belly and said, "Master, I really don't know what happened. Is there someone who wants to harm us on purpose? Is there someone who doesn't want my child to be born?"
"You must make the decision for me. I am loyal to you."
At this time, Chen Baixiang also looked at his wife beside him. If his aunt and her child were gone, the biggest beneficiary would definitely be Shen Jingting.
Facing Chen Baixiang's gaze, Shen Jingting did not dodge at all and looked open and honest.
At this time, the maid who had just gone to report the news knelt directly on the ground.
"Master, it's all my fault."
"I lied just now. There has never been an assassin here."
"Although I am from the Second Aunt's courtyard, I was rescued from the street by you, Master."
"So, my life belongs to the master."
"They conspired to harm the master, and I had no choice but to resort to this desperate measure."
"My life belongs to you, Master. If you think what I did was wrong, please take my life back and pretend that you didn't save me in the first place."
"And the baby in the second aunt's belly is not the master's at all."
"The poisoned wine she was going to give you is right there. If you don't believe me, you can have someone check it out."
After hearing this, Chen Baixiang looked at the maid angrily. Even if what she said was right, it would make him look bad in front of everyone. Wouldn't she say it in private?
The maid seemed to understand what he was thinking, and continued randomly, "Master, I also want to tell you in private, but will you believe me?"
Chen Baixiang was speechless after being confronted by the other party. Indeed, if he said it in private, people might not believe it. After all, he cares about this child very much.
When the housekeeper and the second concubine heard what the maid said, they laughed even more, but still refused to admit it.
In fact, the matter was already very clear, and there was no need to ask the doctor to look at the wine jug.
Chen Baixiang looked at the housekeeper and said calmly, "I am willing to believe you, but the problem has already occurred. If you want to prove yourself, then drink that pot of wine."
"Or you two can each take half."
"Butler Li, if you dare to drink the wine, I can consider letting you go today."
