Chapter 80 Don't Get Her Hands Dirty

The atmosphere in the main hall of Xu's mansion was solemn.

There was a stern look on everyone's face.

Xu Liu knew that a disaster was about to happen. Blood dripped down her head and face onto the ground, but she didn't bother to wipe it off.

She cried and threw herself at Xu Chaoqian's feet:

"Master, I dare not harm you! It was clearly Xu Rongrong who misled me! She made me think that she was the one who was poisoned."

"She asked Wen Yao to stay here to trap me. Her purpose was to frame me!"

"How could there be no affection between you and me, after more than ten years of friendship?"

"To murder the head of the family, how many crimes is this? How dare I do this?"

Madam Xiao, who was standing by, could no longer bear to listen. She hugged her daughter in her arms and looked at Xu Liu coldly: "Do you think that the crime of murdering the county lady is not a serious one?"

Xiao Yanyang was so angry that he shook his head repeatedly: "I didn't expect that Brother Xu's family would have such a vicious wife! If this matter gets out, Brother Xu's family will be in danger."

Xu Chaoqian was terrified and immediately shouted, "Liu is committing treason! Someone, gag her and drag her away!"

Xu Liu was stunned.

No wonder Xu Rongrong wants to host a banquet for Lord Xiao and his family. She is trying to kill herself!

If it weren't for Xiao Yanyang, even if Xu Chaoqian was angry, he would just beat and scold her and send her back to the temple. The worst result would be sending her back to the old house!

But now... with a fourth-rank official here, Xu Chaoqian would definitely not let her go. She quickly hugged Xu Chaoqian's legs and said, "Master, you can't do this to me..."

Before she could finish her cry, Xu Chaoqian raised his uninjured leg and kicked her aside.

Then, in a fit of anger, he threw everything at hand at her head and body.

Looking at her husband, who had no feelings for her and was only concerned with venting his anger, Xu Liu finally understood Xu Rongrong's intentions. She raised her head and looked at the girl who had been standing quietly beside her. "You...are you trying to take my life?"

Xu Rongrong walked forward slowly and helped Xu Liu up: "This is exactly what I wanted to ask Madam."

Xu Liu pushed her away: "Xu Rongrong, you are so cruel! Master, you must not fall for her evil scheme!"

Xu Rongrong gave her a cold look and returned to stand beside Xu Chaoqian.

To murder the head of the family is an unforgivable crime, but to murder the county lady is to punish the entire clan.

She didn't have to worry about what happened next.

Xu Chaoqian certainly understood. Seeing that Xu Liushi refused to repent, he angrily scolded the two maids who had just entered: "What are you still standing there for? Get moving!"

Xu Liu's eyes widened in anger. "Xu Chaoqian, you are so cruel! Don't forget, this Xu Mansion is supported by me. You are just an idiot. Sooner or later, you will be played by Xu Rongrong..."

Before she could finish her words, she was gagged with a smelly black cloth that came from nowhere and dragged out.

Xu Chaoqian didn't breathe a sigh of relief until he could no longer see her.

Then, covering his head, he said, "I have an unbearable headache right now. Xu Dong, quickly take me back to the study... I'll have to trouble Sister Rong to take care of things here."

Madam Xiao was stunned, and she was about to open her mouth.

After all, it was a family affair of the Xu family, and it almost involved a loss of life, so it was not something that outsiders like them could help.

……

Xu Liu was dragged to the woodshed. The two maids were so strong that they held her so tightly that she couldn't move.

When she passed by Bai Cuiyuan, she saw Xu Yaoyao standing at the door.

"Wuwuwu..." Xu Liu struggled and wailed, stretching out her hand with all her might towards her daughter.

But Xu Yaoyao just watched quietly, then closed the door with an expressionless face.

Xu Liu finally gave up struggling and lowered her head helplessly.

There was another person in the woodshed.

Yan Dun'er was tied up and thrown into a corner, she was shaking constantly.

Seeing her wife being thrown in, she quickly leaned over and said, "Madam...what on earth is going on..."

Xu Liu glared at her, her eyes almost spitting fire.

She wanted to curse the idiot in front of her, but her mouth was stuffed with smelly black cloth and she couldn't utter a word.

She stretched out her foot and kicked Yan Duner in the face.

The fat girl was kicked over by her.

She didn't dare come any closer. The current situation made her realize that everything was exposed.

So what will be waiting for her next?

Will she die?

With a "creak...", the door of the woodshed was opened again.

Two burly maids came in and picked up Yan Dun'er.

Yan Duner kept struggling: "What are you going to do?"

Luo Shu walked behind, and hearing the fear in Yan Dun'er's voice, he sneered: "You dare to murder the head of the family, so you will be sent to the government."

A small character like her doesn't need to be dealt with by the Xu family.

Yan Dun'er was shocked: "I...I didn't harm the master, my target was only the eldest lady, Madam...Madam can vouch for me!"

Luo Shu looked at her in disbelief, as if he was looking at a fool.

After a long while: "So that's how it is... then if you plot to murder the county lady, you might be punished by lingchi."

"..." Yan Duner's voice choked in her mouth.

The next moment, she finally reacted and began to struggle desperately: "Sister Luo Shu, please forgive me, please forgive me, I won't dare to do it again!"

She doesn't want to die so miserably and painfully.

She was so strong that the two maids could hardly catch her.

Yan Duner yelled, "I want to see the young lady! I want to see the young lady!"

Luo Shu sneered: "You are worthy!"

No matter how she struggled, she was no match for the two strong maids and was eventually dragged out.

Xu Liu stared at Luo Shu and said something private.

Luo Shu stepped forward and pulled the black cloth out of her mouth.

"Let Xu Rongrong come to see me!" Xu Liu's eyes were wide open with anger.

Luo Shu smiled slightly: "Meet the county lady? You... are not worthy."

Xu Liu was furious: "You! How dare you murder the master!"

"You can't talk nonsense. The eldest lady is a very filial person. How could she harm the master? Aren't you the real perpetrator?" Luo Shu said with a smile and turned to leave.

……

In the study of the Mu residence, Mu Ai recounted everything that had happened in the Xu residence.

When the net was closed today, Mu Rong did not go.

He knew that Xu Rongrong didn't want to reveal such a dirty side to others.

Mu Ai seemed to be performing another big drama, and finished speaking with great emotion.

Mu Rong frowned and asked, "How should we deal with Xu Liu?"

"Speaking of Madam Xu..." Mu Ai was at a loss for words. "Master Xu gave the County Lady full authority to handle this matter, completely disregarding the County Lady's reputation."

Let an unmarried girl deal with her mistress who attempted to murder someone, regardless of the outcome.

If this gets out, it will definitely damage Xu Rongrong's reputation.

Mu Rong sneered, "With this marquis here, who dares to gossip?"

"That's right, Master." Mu Ai replied, "It's just... it's a hot potato after all."

"It's not difficult," Mu Rong mused. "If we let down our guard and Xu Liu escaped and died outside, who would be able to say anything?"

As expected, killing people is the Marquis’ specialty.

Mu Ai stuck out his tongue and said, "Then... do you need me to inform the county lady of this method?"

Mu Rong looked out the window, his eyes darkening. "Don't let her get involved in any murder. How could someone like Xu Liu dirty her hands? You handle this!"

Mu Ai looked down at his fair hands: "..."
