[Through the Book] The ancestor only wants to live a long life

"Grandma, please tell them to stop!" Yunying grabbed Rong Enqing's hand and shook it anxiously. Seeing that Rong Enqing didn't respond, she anxiously shouted to Eryue and Xiaohuan: "Stop knocking! Sister Eryue, Sister Xiaohuan, stop knocking! I'll plead for you! I'll tell grandma! Stop knocking!"

Then he turned to Rong Enqing and begged, "Grandma! Grandma! Please make them stop!"

Rong Enqing was helpless and shouted loudly: "Alright, stop knocking!"

Rong Enqing spoke, and Eryue and Xiaohuan both stopped.

At this time, both of them had blood on their foreheads, and the blood on Xiaohuan's forehead even flowed down to her chin. It looked so miserable.

"Thank you, madam!"

"Thank you, madam!"

The two thanked each other in unison, then looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.

"Madam, do you believe Xiaohuan is innocent?" Er Yue looked at Rong Enqing with joy, "I knew that Madam is wise and intelligent and will never be deceived by others. ..."

"That's enough!" Rong Enqing interrupted Er Yue with a gloomy face and ordered in a cold voice: "Kneel aside. We will discuss Xiao Huan's matter later. Let's deal with the others first."

Er Yue was stunned, her joy waned, and she began to feel uneasy again.

Butler Li came over to urge them, and Eryue and Xiaohuan walked out of the crowd together and went to the side to continue kneeling.

At this time, Rong Enqing cast his eyes on Liu Qing and asked in a cold voice: "As Xiaohuan said, she has no reason to harm the fourth wife, and she has no ability to let you be the housekeeper. You said that everything you did was instigated by Xiaohuan, do you have any evidence?"

Liu Qing's face turned pale and he was sweating coldly. "No, no."

"Someone, drag me down."

"Madam, I remember now! It was Xiao Huan who ordered me to do this, and they all know it!" Liu Qing turned around anxiously and pointed at the group of servants who had followed him in the fight before, "Hurry up and tell me! It's my turn now, and it will be your turn later!"

The servants nodded quickly: "Yes, that's right, Xiao Huan told us to do this."

"It's Xiaohuan, it's Xiaohuan!"

"Every time she says something, we and Butler Liu do it. If anyone doesn't do it, something bad will happen the next day for various reasons."

Rong Enqing shook his head and did not comment.

"Alright, all those who participated in the fight, go over there and I'll give them ten blows each. We'll talk after the fight is over."

As soon as these words came out, more than a dozen servants quickly got up and ran towards the corner, as if they were afraid that if they ran too slowly, their crime would be aggravated.

Fu You and Liu Qing, the two leaders, were eager to follow and be punished. Ten strokes of the cane was still tolerable!

Unfortunately, Rong Enqing stopped them, "Butler Liu and Butler Fu, don't worry, it's not your turn yet."

Hearing this, the two men had no choice but to kneel down again.

The fighting servants left the line, and only a dozen maids and old women were left kneeling.

Rong Enqing shouted to the crowd, "Everyone in the kitchen, step out."

Then six old women came out from the crowd and knelt aside.

"The maid who is in charge of making medicine for the Fourth Madam, please step out."

Lian'er and Cui'er stepped out.

Eight people, exactly the same ones who had caused trouble in the kitchen before.

Xiu Zhang had already mentioned this matter to Rong Enqing, so Rong Enqing would deal with it alone at this moment.

"Why hasn't Fourth Madam's medicine been prepared and sent here yet?" Rong Enqing looked at Lian'er and Cui'er with sharp eyes.

Lian'er and Cui'er quickly told the story of how they went to the kitchen to borrow the stove to boil medicine but were stopped in every way. Finally, they also told the story of how the medicine spilled because of the beating.

"It's your turn now. Explain why you don't allow people in Qingxueju to use the stove?" Rong En looked at the fat woman coldly.

The fat woman immediately complained, "Madam, please understand. It's not that I don't allow them to use the stove. It's just that the stove is not empty!"

"You are lying! There was clearly an empty stove! I saw with my own eyes that you added water into the empty stove! It's obvious that you don't want us to use the stove!" Cui'er quickly and loudly exposed the fat woman.

"Madam, please understand. The several stoves in the big kitchen have fixed uses every day. One is used to stew tonic soup for the master, one is used to boil medicine for the girl, and another is used to stew sweet soup for the girl. The last one is used to make chicken soup every day. Chicken soup is needed as a base for cooking noodles and dishes, so a stove must be stewed every day." The fat woman explained in detail.

The other maids also quickly agreed: "That's right, the stove in the big kitchen is used every day, so it's really not available."

"You are lying. One of the stoves was clearly empty. I saw you add water with my own eyes!" Cui'er was filled with righteous indignation and swore solemnly.

"Has anyone touched anything in the big kitchen since they had the argument?" Rong Enqing asked Xiu Zhang.

Xiu Zhang looked at Xiang Guo who was kneeling in the crowd, "Xiang Guo, you speak."

Xiang Guo quickly responded, "To answer Madam Tai's question, no one has moved. I have been watching the two groups of people in the kitchen until Sister Xiu Zhang came with her people."

"Okay then." Rong Enqing nodded and winked at Xiu Zhang, "Go to the kitchen yourself and take a look."

Xiu Zhang went away in response and returned soon after.

"Your Excellency, Madam, there is indeed a pot of water stewing on the stove." Xiu Zhang replied respectfully, but his eyes fell on the fat woman and others.

Sure enough, one of the women was shocked and blurted out, "This is impossible! I clearly added Tremella fuciformis to it."

Several other maids also looked at her, their eyes clearly questioning whether she had forgotten to add it.

The old woman looked at Xiu Zhang anxiously, "Miss, did you see it clearly?" She had clearly added a white fungus in the pot during the chaos! Why did it become a jar of water? Did she remember it wrong? Or was it because she was too confused at the time and added it to another pottery jar?

Just as the old woman had come up with this guess, she heard Xiu Zhang say, "It was indeed a jar of water. However, I saw some Tremella fuciformis that had just been added to another earthenware pot for stewing chicken soup."

As soon as these words came out, the old woman collapsed to the ground.

Even the fat woman and others beside her looked pale.

"Madam, please spare me! That stove was originally prepared to stew lotus seeds and white fungus soup for the second young lady. It was not intentional not to let the people in Qingxueju use it!" The fat woman explained hurriedly.

"You bastard! How dare you use the Second Miss as an excuse to evade me?" Rong Enqing was furious. "The Fourth Madam had a miscarriage and was in a coma, but her medicine is not as important as the Second Miss's bowl of Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup? I think you did it on purpose!"

"Someone come here, drag him away and give him twenty lashes of the cane!" Rong Enqing ordered angrily.

Butler Li quickly called the servants to come and drag the person away.

Until she was dragged away, the fat woman was still shouting stubbornly: "Madam, I am innocent. Qingxueju has its own small kitchen and a small stove. Why did you run to the big kitchen to use the stove? It's obvious that you are deliberately looking for trouble and trying to frame me! Please understand, Madam!"
