The Evil Mistress's Killing Crazy Daily

"Ma'am, this is what happened..."

Wiping tears with her sleeves, Xinghua hurriedly reported, "Madam, I don't know who the master offended outside. Not only was he carried in from outside covered in blood early in the morning...After he came back, he didn't have time to see a doctor, and a group of people broke into the house again, beating anyone and smashing anything they saw..."

"He, they..."

Thinking of the scene where Hua Weiwei smashed Lu Yitong's finger with the viewing stone, Xinghua shrank back in fear and looked at Xiao Qintang with red eyes, "Madam, they also smashed my finger..."

"what?!"

When Xiao Qintang heard this, she was shocked at first.

But soon, she thought about it and frowned again, thinking it was ridiculous, "How is this possible? There are so many maids and servants in the house, are they just there to eat and do nothing? How can they allow others to bully them?

There is also Lu Yitong, who is an official appointed by the imperial court.

Beating up an official of the imperial court, don't they want to die?"

"it is true!"

Seeing that Xiao Qintang didn't believe her, Xinghua quickly rolled up her sleeves and showed her the bruises on her arms with a bit of grievance. "Madam, it's not that we are useless, it's just that those people are so tall and strong, they are too powerful. They broke in and started fighting right away. Not only did the master and the maids get beaten, but even the old lady fainted from anger, and she hasn't woken up yet."

"Really?"

Looking at the injury on Xinghua's arm, Xiao Qintang was skeptical.

In order to prevent this from being a self-torture trick concocted by Lu Yitong, she ate a mouthful of bird's nest with a nonchalant look on her face, and asked coldly as if unintentionally: "If that's the case, why don't you report it to the police?

Breaking into a private residence and assaulting an official appointed by the imperial court is a serious crime. Why don't you report it to the police and send them to jail directly?"

"But……"

Recalling the arrogant attitude of Hua Weiwei and others, Xinghua hesitated to explain, "But they are very arrogant, not like ordinary people at all, and, and they seem to be very familiar with me...

When the old lady reminded them that the master was an official appointed by the imperial court, they were not afraid at all, but became even more arrogant. "

"That's right! They also said..."

"say what?"

"them……"

Xinghua hesitated and pursed her lips.

Giving Xiao Qintang a worried look, she whispered carefully and confessed, "They said that the master has been dismissed from his post and will never be employed again..."

"what!"

Xiao Qintang's fingers trembled, and the bird's nest in her hand fell to the ground with a snap.

She was in a trance, with complicated feelings in her heart.

She felt that Lu Yitong had dared to deceive her, so he deserved this fate. She also felt that Lu Yitong's official position was given by her after all, and the Xiao family spent more than 6,000 taels of silver to buy it...

All kinds of emotions mixed together, she was at a loss, and hurriedly grabbed Xinghua's arm and asked: "Really? Is what you said true? What did Lu Yitong do in the past few days? It's only one night, how could the situation change so much?"

"lady……"

Xinghua frowned, feeling a little painful from being grabbed, and quickly explained to her, "Madam, starting early yesterday morning, I went to the ancestral home in Lujia Village with the old lady.

It was the neighbor who kindly sent someone to inform us early this morning, and only then did I follow the old lady back to Shuxiang Lane.

When we returned, the old man was lying at the door, already injured..."

"is it?"

"Yes."

Xinghua nodded quickly and withdrew her wrist.

Thinking of the little beggar who was still waiting outside, Xinghua paused for a moment, carefully looked at Xiao Qintang's face, and took the opportunity to take credit for the little beggar: "Madam, in fact, the reason why I was able to return home was thanks to a group of beggars. If it weren't for those beggars, I don't know where I am now."

"Beggar? Why is he hanging out with beggars?"

"I heard that the master was thrown into the beggars' alley. I don't know the details..."

After telling everything she knew, Xinghua breathed a sigh of relief and suggested with some concern, "Madam, now that the two masters of this house have fallen, the house is leaderless and the people are in panic...

Look, why don't you go back with me?

If you don’t go back, we servants really don’t know what to do next…”

Of course they will serve people.

But they had no money and no courage to touch the Lu family's money.

These slaves work like beasts of burden for the sake of earning money. They can't possibly pay their masters to work for them, right?

"This……"

Xiao Qintang was hesitating when she heard Xinghua asking her to go back. At this time, Ruan Yunluo came in from outside and looked at Xiao Qintang curiously, "What? Do you want to go back? Did something happen?"

"Sister-in-law?"

Xiao Qintang felt relieved when he saw Ruan Yunluo coming in.

She hurriedly asked the servants to clean up the bird's nest that had fallen on the ground, and asked Xinghua and everyone else to leave. She patted the side of her bed and asked Ruan Yunluo to sit down.

She grabbed Ruan Yunluo's fingers helplessly, with mixed feelings.

She was a little flustered, but also a little happy. She couldn't wait to confide in Ruan Yunluo, "Sister-in-law, it turns out that Lu Yitong didn't deliberately break the appointment yesterday. He wasn't guilty, nor did he deliberately not want to attend my second brother's funeral. He just couldn't.

He was beaten and his value was reduced, so he couldn't come."

"what?"

He pursed his lips in surprise.

Ruan Yunluo forced himself to suppress the corners of his mouth that he couldn't help but curl up.

Although we still don’t know exactly what happened last night, Lu Yitong was dismissed from his post and beaten, which means that things must have gone smoothly yesterday...

As long as it goes well.

Ruan Yunluo felt relieved.

Pretending to know nothing, Ruan Yunluo grabbed Xiao Qintang's fingers with a worried look on his face, and hurriedly asked, "What on earth happened? Wasn't my brother-in-law fine a few days ago? How come he suddenly encountered such a big change?"

"I can't explain it clearly..."

Xiao Qintang shook his head in confusion.

She suddenly asked Ruan Yunluo tentatively, "Sister-in-law, Lu Yitong and the old lady are both sick now, and there is no one in the Lu family to take care of them. Do you think I should go back..."

"You ask this because you want to go back?"

"I, I haven't thought about it yet..."

Feeling as if Ruan Yunluo had seen through her thoughts, Xiao Qintang was a little embarrassed and quickly lowered her head and pulled her hand back.

Her fingers randomly and unconsciously tapped on the pink quilt with embroidery for a while. She pouted her lips and still muttered awkwardly: "He... He kept the family affairs secret from me for so long... He also reported my second brother..."

"He kept it a secret from you because you were pregnant, and he was thinking about your health." Knowing what Xiao Qintang wanted to hear, Ruan Yunluo smiled and patted the back of her hand, and told him everything. "As for reporting your second brother, that was his duty, and he was in pain too."

"All right……"

Seeing Xiao Qintang lowering her head and not saying anything, just picking at the butterflies embroidered on the pink quilt with her fingers, Ruan Yunluo stood up and smiled and instructed, "Okay, you take a rest first, I'll send someone to prepare a car for you to take you back..."

"Sister-in-law?"

Xiao Qintang suddenly looked up, interrupting Ruan Yunluo's arrangement with a low voice. Through the cold light of the autumn morning outside the screen window, she sat on the bed and looked at Ruan Yunluo helplessly, "Sister-in-law, Lu Yitong's confession is true, right?

My second brother’s death has nothing to do with Lu Yitong, right? "
