Transmigrated into a concubine, the main task is to make money

Chapter 17: Yuxi's eloquence and her ability to defend her innocence

Everyone in the mansion knew Lin Yuxi's reputation as a coward.

However, after observing for the past few days, it is found to be quite different from the rumors.

Liu narrowed her eyes, not knowing whether she was pretending to be weak before or was pretending to be strong now.

But no matter which one it was, Lin Yuxi would never tolerate it.

"Don't try to quibble. Although our Lin family is not a famous family, it is a well-educated family. How could we raise someone like you who disregards etiquette? It is a great virtue to admit one's mistakes and correct them. The facts are in front of us, but you still refuse to repent. I will clean up the mess for my Lin family today. Come, drag this thing away and beat her with fifty sticks, and then lock her up in the woodshed. No food is allowed to be sent to her without my order."

Liu was really angry this time, as she was the legitimate daughter of the Liu family.

Her eldest brother is her only biological child.

The eldest brother has many wives and concubines, but he only has Liu Wenshu as his only child. Even Liu treats him with great pampering, not to mention the Liu family.

If anything happens to him in the Lin family, his mother's family will definitely not let it go.

As soon as Liu finished speaking, two servants came in to take Lin Yuxi away. She glanced at them coldly, and the two servants felt timid in their hearts.

Lu Yun protected Lin Yuxi behind him and shouted:

"If anyone dares to touch my lady's hair, I, Lu Yun, will fight him to the death."

"Well, you've rebelled. You dared to openly defy my orders, even a dog slave. I want to see how you fight back. Drag her down with you and beat her to death with sticks."

Liu felt humiliated by being defied in public and slammed the table heavily.

Lin Yuxi glared at Luyun unhappily, saying that he was such a stubborn boy.

"slow!"

Lin Yuxi was neither anxious nor impatient, but her tone was much colder than before.

She smiled faintly towards Liu's vicious eyes.

"I know that you are too busy managing the affairs of the inner court to be able to spare time. It is hard to convince people to convict you based on your one-sided words. If you want to accuse me of this crime, you can always find a pretext. I don't want you to confront the villain who slandered me. I am afraid there is something behind it. If it is spread by those villains, it will definitely damage your reputation. Please invite someone to come here so that I can clear my name."

Lin Yuxi made it clear that she was innocent.

Liu pinned the blame on her with just one sentence, but it was difficult to stop the gossip.

If the matter is not handled properly, the bad news that Liu cannot tolerate a concubine's daughter and will use any means to get rid of her, and that she is dictatorial and narrow-minded will spread.

It has a great impact on her reputation, and it also puts pressure on Liu.

Liu didn't think of this at first, but after Lin Yuxi said this, she couldn't help but hesitate.

However, being accused in person by a junior, his eyes almost spit fire.

If looks could kill, Lin Yuxi would have died countless times.

"I can testify that I saw you push your cousin into the water with my own eyes."

Lin Yuxi looked towards the owner of the voice, only to see Lin Yuhe slightly tilting her head and looking down at her.

Liu Wenshu didn't say a word from beginning to end, looking like he was enjoying the show.

Liu's eyes were fierce and she was about to explode when a maid came in to inform Aunt Zhou and Aunt Feng that they were here to see her.

Soon, the gorgeously dressed Aunt Zhou and the quiet Aunt Feng walked in.

After paying respect to everyone, Aunt Zhou smiled and said:

"I heard that today is the wedding day of the eldest daughter's marriage proposal. The madam was busy welcoming the guests just now. I didn't dare to come and disturb them for fear of offending the guests. I came here to congratulate the eldest daughter and the madam. I know that the madam is busy with the household and the eldest daughter's marriage. The master loves the madam and asked me to help her more last night, so I came here with a thick face."

Liu looked at the two of them coldly. After being together for so many years, how could she not know what they were planning?

Under normal circumstances, she would have scolded them, but at this moment, she didn't have the heart to entertain them:

"How can a mere concubine help me? If you have nothing else to do, please leave."

Aunt Zhou was stunned and her face turned ugly instantly. She was not willing to be sent away so easily.

Looking at the situation in the house, he could no longer leave.

Aunt Feng next to her had been acting as a wooden pole, not saying a word, just standing there blankly.

She didn't move either until Aunt Zhou left.

Seeing that they refused to leave, Liu ignored them.

Turn your attention back to Lin Yuxi.

Liu wanted to convict her immediately, and there was a hint of hostility in her eyes as she looked at her.

"Well, you have nothing to say, right? Now there are witnesses, so don't deny it anymore."

Lu Yun was anxious. Wasn't it her own daughter who kicked her cousin into the water? And the third daughter saw it. What should she do?

Compared to Lu Yun, Lin Yuxi was much calmer. Did she think that she could be forced to confess by just letting anyone come forward as a witness?

Is it possible?

She looked Liu Wenshu up and down, then said to Liu:

"Mother, I would like to ask you a question. Does my cousin have a hidden disease that he cannot tell anyone about?"

Liu thought that since Lin Yuhe had testified, no matter how eloquent Lin Yuxi was, she would not be able to escape this disaster.

But I didn't expect her to say such a thing. I was so angry that my face turned green and I slammed the teacup in my hand heavily on the table:

"Lin Yuxi, you are so evil-hearted that you not only hurt others, but you also curse the descendants of my Liu family."

Even Liu Wenshu's face darkened, it was clearly her who designed to make him fall into the water.

She refused to admit it and cursed him for having a hidden illness, her chest rising and falling more rapidly.

"Don't be angry, mother. I didn't mean to curse my cousin. It's just that you know your body best. How can you push a strong man who is several times stronger than you into the water if you can't even lift water? You care about your cousin and don't want him to suffer any injustice. It's understandable. You don't want others to deceive you and give you a reason to talk about you."

As Lin Yuxi spoke, she admired the change of Liu's face from green to red, and then from red to black, secretly exclaiming in her heart that it was wonderful.

Her words were very clear. No one would believe that a sickly woman could push a normal man into the water.

But this is also possible, provided that the man's physique is worse and weaker than the woman's.

Looking at Liu Wenshu, it doesn't seem like that at all.

Lin Yuxi also explained another possibility, that is, Liu was used as a gun by others.

If she convicted her without any basis in reason, those in the dark would take advantage of the situation.

In the end, her reputation is bound to be bad.

Liu understood. Was she hinting that her own daughter had framed her?

Is it possible?

She would never believe it no matter what. She was trying to sow discord between mother and daughter.

Liu became even more disgusted with Lin Yuxi and wanted to beat her to death.

What she said made sense and could not be dealt with lightly. There had to be solid evidence, so she looked in the direction of Liu Wenshu.

Liu Wenshu received Liu's look and understood what she meant.

However, he stared at Lin Yuxi, a hint of interest appeared in his eyes, and he also had his own calculations.
