I was a housekeeper in ancient times
Chapter 70: Evil people have their own trials and tribulations
Lin Weiqiao nodded. Although this method was risky, it was the most effective and the most confidential.
This matter was a secret that could not be seen by anyone, and it involved her husband and another woman. Zhou would never mention it to anyone else, including Chai Sheng.
Only if this incident poses a threat to the Zhou family will they try every means to move their family out of the capital.
She asked, "Can Zhou be the boss of the Chai family? The longer the night, the more trouble there is. It would be best if the Chai family could move out before Concubine Lian gives birth."
Mother Zhang smiled and said, "The one from the Chai family looks kindhearted, but in fact, she is the most capable. She has this idea now, but it will take some time for the Chai family to move out, and it must be before Lian'er gives birth. I also spent some money and asked someone to help Chai Sheng stop his current business. The old and young in the Chai family are all waiting for Chai Sheng to take care of them. Without a business, it will be difficult for them to survive in the capital. They are not originally from the capital, but came from other places."
As they were talking, they saw Mother Sun passing by and looked at them suspiciously. They then started talking about other topics at the same time in tacit understanding.
Lin Weiqiao deliberately raised her voice and said, "Don't worry, old man. The mastermind behind Aunt Lian's fall into the water will be found out and severely punished."
Originally, Mother Sun was still curious about what they were talking about and why they were so mysterious. When she heard what Lin Weiqiao said, she rolled her eyes and hurried away.
"Aunt, stay in the mansion for a few days before going back, so as to avoid anyone getting suspicious."
"Hey, it just so happens that I am also worried about Lian'er."
Besides, Hua Jie'er was frightened and fainted. After waking up, she was so scared that she curled up in the quilt, shouting that she was the one who pushed Wan Jie'er, and asked the ancestors to forgive her and not to come after her.
This also frightened Mrs. Ding, and she quickly covered Hua Jie'er's mouth, "Hua Jie, don't talk nonsense, be careful not to let others hear it!"
At this moment, Hua Jie'er was completely out of her mind, her hands were covered in blood last night. She grabbed Ding's clothes in fear and said, "Mom, blood, there is blood..."
The maids and servants in the room were frantically trying to coax Hua Jie'er. After Hua Jie calmed down, Mrs. Ding's face froze and she asked Mrs. Wu, "What did you find out at the ancestral hall? How could Hua Jie be in such a mess? She even has... It's obvious that someone is deliberately playing tricks to scare her!"
Mrs. Wu said, "We checked the ancestral hall inside and out, but we didn't find the letter that the second girl mentioned. There were just a few tablets in the ancestral hall that were overturned, and the east window looked like someone had opened it."
Ding snorted coldly, her eyes darkened, and she had made a rough conclusion in her mind.
Ever since Aunt Lian and Wan Jie'er fell into the water and Hua Jie'er ran back to find her in a panic, she knew what was going on. So she taught Hua Jie'er not to admit it no matter what and to refuse to admit it. Anyway, there was no one else around at that time except Aunt Lian and Wan Jie'er.
As long as Hua Jieer doesn't admit it, even if Wan Jieer points it out, so what! They are both children, and if Wan Jieer dares to say that Hua Jieer pushed her, then Hua Jieer can naturally say that Wan Jieer pushed her.
No one was willing to take the blame, and as time went on, the matter naturally passed.
No matter how hard Lady Suining Marquis investigated, she couldn't produce any evidence and there was nothing she could do to Hua Jie'er.
But at this critical moment, someone actually pretended to be a ghost to scare Hua Jie'er, just to force Hua Jie'er to admit it. It was really vicious.
She thought the first wife was as helpless as before, but she didn't expect that she would dare to use such despicable means. It was really dirty.
Although the second branch tried hard to keep the matter of Hua Jie'er secret from spreading, everyone knew that Hua Jie'er had escaped from the ancestral hall in the middle of the night.
Now he is repeatedly shouting that he was the one who pushed Wan Jie'er. How can he keep it secret?
Within half a day, the entire Bo Mansion was discussing this matter.
Hua Jie'er admitted it in the morning, and the wife of Marquis Suining came to the Earl's Mansion in the afternoon.
Summoning the people from the two branches, the wife of the Marquis of Suning scolded Madam Lu and the second branch like they were her grandsons, "How dare you say that Hua Jie'er did it unintentionally? Hua Jie'er is already a grown-up, didn't she know that Aunt Lian was pregnant? And you still say it was an accident, do you think I'm old and confused and easy to fool?"
Ding also repeatedly argued: "It was Sister Hua who was talking nonsense. It is not worthy of belief."
"Nonsense? Then Hua Jieer said two days ago that she didn't push Wan Jieer, is that nonsense? I'm confused. There were three people present at the time, and two of them fell into the water. Hua Jieer, the only one who didn't fall into the water, said that it was Wan Jieer who pushed her. Isn't that ridiculous? If it was really Wan Jieer who pushed her, how come Wan Jieer also fell into the water? Also, they were all sick, so why didn't Wan Jieer talk nonsense?"
After hearing these words, Ding was speechless.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Madam Lu gave Ding a look and told her to shut up. If she continued talking, it would not only be Hua Jie'er who would be implicated.
The wife of the Marquis of Suning said, "You said that it was an unintentional mistake by Hua Jieer. How can Hua Jieer tell whether it was intentional or unintentional? Could it be that she was instigated by someone?"
Madam Lu said calmly, "Falling into the water was an accident. Why make a fuss about it? Hua Jie'er is not a three-year-old child. How could she be instigated? Also, Hua Jie'er pushed Wan Jie into the water unintentionally. How could Wan Jie also cause Aunt Lian to fall into the water? Was Wan Jie also instigated by someone?"
Seeing that Madam Lu had passed the matter to the eldest house, not to mention Yu Muyan, even the wife of the Marquis of Suning could not stand it any longer. "I didn't know that Wan Jie'er could have such a vicious mind. She was so afraid of water, but she still wanted to drag Aunt Lian into the water. She is really courageous. Everyone present knows whether Hua Jie'er was instigated by someone. There is no order without rules. Whether Hua Jie'er did it intentionally or unintentionally, she almost made a big mistake."
Ding wanted to take advantage of Hua Jie'er's illness to escape the disaster, but the wife of Marquis Suining would not agree to it. She confined Hua Jie'er to Fengyaxuan for three months, asking her to reflect on her mistakes and not to take a single step out unless necessary.
During this period, Hua Jie'er had to copy scriptures every day to pray for the fetus in Aunt Lian's belly.
At this point, Lin Weiqiao smiled with satisfaction. Every evildoer will be punished by his own evildoer, and that evildoer will be the wife of the Marquis of Suining.
No matter how Madam Lu acted like a bully on weekdays, or how unreasonable Mrs. Ding was, at this moment, no matter how dissatisfied and unwilling they were, they had to hold it in, and they probably had no chance to fight back.
This is the benefit of having a high status.
This made her think of what happened to Mother Liang that day. If she was not an old maid, but was born into a royal family, would Mother Liang still be so arrogant to her?
I hate her because she is just an old maid!
If she had an identity, she would have been slapped in the face long ago!
If she endured it for a while, she would get angrier and angrier. If she took a step back, she would regret it! Now she wanted to beat up that Liang's mother to vent her hatred.
