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

Thinking of this, Lvyun and Cuizhu quickly refused:

"No, young lady, you cannot go to court. If you testify, your reputation will be ruined."

Lin Yuxi didn't think too much about it and agreed immediately. Luyun and Cuizhu were so scared that they almost cried. They not only failed to protect the young lady but also hurt her.

Holding the sword, he paused.

"I was not thoughtful enough. I will hand it over to the government for interrogation first. I will report the follow-up matters to you another day."

"Are you a constable?"

Lin Yuxi couldn't help but ask.

Holding the sword and shaking his head,

"No. The carriage is ready outside, you'd better leave quickly."

Seeing that he didn't want to talk, Lin Yuxi didn't ask any more questions. She just felt very strange and surprised. If he was just trying to help, why would he even prepare a carriage?

Lin Yuxi couldn't help but look at the man holding the sword inquiringly, and when she really couldn't see any hint of conspiracy, she couldn't help but curse herself inwardly.

It was so subtle that he suspected conspiracy in everything he saw. Lin Yuxi frowned. This feeling was really bad.

After Lin Yuxi thanked Chijian again, she let Luyun and Cuizhu help her get into the carriage. The coachman was the same one who came here.

After sorting out the whole story, Cuizhu couldn't help but say with shame and regret:

"Miss, it's all my fault. I almost hurt you."

"It was an accident. It's not your fault. It's just a pity that today's plan has been ruined."

This is what makes Lin Yuxi most unhappy. She has waited so long for this day, but it was ruined. She doesn’t know when she will be able to go out next time. She is so angry.

Luyun and Cuizhu couldn't help but lower their heads in shame. It was all their fault for being too weak. They couldn't even protect the young lady and almost got her into trouble.

They all knew how much the young lady was looking forward to today, but now it was ruined by them, and she felt extremely guilty.

Lin Yuxi comforted them a few more words. Although she felt pity in her heart, she was more angry. No matter who that person was, she would find her out.

When they returned to the Lin Mansion, the sun had already set. The servant outside the door was stunned when he saw Lin Yuxi, and then made way for her to go in.

The house was very quiet, just like any other day. Lin Yuxi expected that Lin Yuhe would not send anyone to look for her when she returned, but a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes.

Lin Yuxi came back so late, she must have gone to report her safety to Liu and the old lady.

After passing the front door, Lin Yuxi walked towards the front hall, but the further she walked, the more suspicious she felt. One or two of the maids looked flustered.

Lin Yuxi frowned, thinking that something might have happened, and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.

From afar, the sound of beatings and Liu's angry voice could be heard:

"What a misfortune for our family, old lady. It's all the daughter-in-law's fault. It was because she was incapable of controlling the master that the thief took advantage of the opportunity and almost caused a disaster."

Luyun and Cuizhu were also very nervous, not knowing what had happened. They couldn't help but quicken their pace as they followed Lin Yuxi.

Lin Yuxi saw two old women beating a maid on the ground one after another in front of the front hall door. The maid's mouth was blocked and she could only make muffled groans. Her hair was disheveled and Lin Yuxi could not see who she was.

Cuizhu cried out, trembling:

"It's Hongyan."

Red Swallow?

Isn't that the maidservant that Master Lin took in a few days ago?

Didn't she say she was pregnant? Why did you treat a pregnant woman so harshly?

Lin Yuxi walked in. The old lady, Liu, Lin Yu, Lin Yuhe, Lin Yuling, as well as Aunt Zhou and Aunt Feng were also there.

There were also many maids standing there, each with an unusually solemn expression.

When Lin Yuhe saw Lin Yuxi appear at this time, his face turned pale.

Lin Yuxi happened to look over at this moment, and Lin Yuhe hurriedly avoided her sight.

Lin Yuxi walked in and bowed to the old lady and Liu. Before she could say anything, Liu spoke first:

"You are willing to come back. Such a big thing happened at home, but you still have the heart to go shopping and watch dragon boats. If you don't know, you will think you have gone out."

She was the first to start the fight. Lin Yuxi bit her lip, looked at Lin Yuhe aggrievedly, and said to the old lady:

"Madam, you have wronged Yuxi. Even if you give Yuxi a hundred courages, she would not dare to do that. There was a disturbance on the river today, and Yuxi got lost. Yuxi was afraid that her third sister would be worried about not being able to find me, so she stayed there waiting for someone to find me. Unexpectedly, she waited for half a day. Fortunately, Lvyun and Cuizhu found me, otherwise Yuxi might not be able to come back today."

As he spoke, his face turned pale and his eyes were full of fear.

When the old lady heard that Lin Yuxi had gone astray, her heart tightened and she quickly pulled her over and touched her face:

"But are you injured? How can you two be so good at your duties? You even lost the young lady and didn't even come back to report."

The old lady changed the subject and blamed Luyun and Cuizhu.

The two of them knelt down in fear.

"We know we were wrong. We wanted to come back and report to our masters, but Miss Three said she would go back first and send someone to help us search. We don't know why no one came to help us for such a long time."

After hearing this, Lin Yuhe's face turned pale again and she looked at Liu in panic.

Lin Yuxi first scolded Luyun and Cuizhu:

"Shut up, something big happened at home, and Third Sister forgot to send someone because she was worried about family matters. How can you blame the master for coming? You have lost my face today, and I will punish you severely when I get back."

When Lin Yuxi said this, Lin Yuhe glanced at her viciously, but the old lady's face was gloomy.

It has been an hour since Lin Yuhe came back, and the incident with Hongyan just happened. She didn't tell anyone about it for such a long time, maybe she did it on purpose.

The old lady was very disappointed.

Lin Yuxi was not responsible for pursuing this matter, so she changed the subject at the right time:

"I wonder what happened at home? When Yuxi came in just now, she saw the old woman beating Daddy's new concubine Hongyan. Didn't they say she was pregnant? Why is she still..."

Before Lin Yuxi could finish, Liu spit and said disdainfully:

"Body? Pah! I won't be able to get rid of the hatred in my heart unless I beat that bitch to death."

From Liu's tone, it seems that Hongyan is not pregnant?

Lin Yuxi was puzzled, and Aunt Zhou said:

"Hongyan's pregnancy is fake, and her real intention is to steal the boy and replace him with a girl."

As she spoke, she chuckled and glanced at Liu secretly. Liu snorted coldly and ordered in a mistress-like manner:

"You have witnessed what happened today. Those who have ulterior motives will end up like Hongyan. Not everyone can climb into the master's bed."

All the maids in the room lowered their heads, their ears burning, and they didn't know whether they had any ulterior motives or were just scared by Liu.

A woman came in and said calmly:

"He's dead."

The tone was as calm as if he was saying that he had already eaten.

Lin Yuxi's heart couldn't help but tighten. She knew that women in ancient times were worthless and even cheaper than ants.

She didn't know what evil thing Hongyan had done, but no matter what, that was a living life, in the prime of her youth, and it was gone just like that.
