Quick Wear: Crazy Female Supporting Role She is Bai Yueguang
Chapter 28: The Lady of the Marquisate Kills the Time-Traveling Girl (3)
Chun'er lives a comfortable life on weekdays, with the old lady's support.
Shi Qing only asked her to help him with his dressing and makeup, but this made Chun'er develop the idea of betraying her.
At this moment, Shi Qing's cold words hit her like a blow to the head.
She quickly knelt down and took herself out.
"Madam, this was all Miss Xie's plan. My indentures are all in the Marquis' mansion. I dare not lie... Please, Madam, spare my life!"
Hsieh Su-wei suddenly felt uneasy. The discussions around her were secretly scolding her for being ungrateful.
"I heard that the Ningyuan Marquis' wife treated Miss Xie with courtesy because she was alone and helpless and had saved the Marquis. I never thought that Miss Xie was so cruel and even wanted to fabricate the reputation of the mistress of the house!"
"That is to say, she wants to be the wife of the Marquis, so she wants to scheme against the Marquis. I heard that the Marquis treats her as her own sister."
"You probably don't know that Madam Lu wanted to give Miss Xie a thousand taels of gold as a reward, but Miss Xie actually refused. Now it seems that her real intention is not this, but..."
What about the position of the Marquis' wife?
Everyone present was a shrewd person. Although they didn't point it out, they understood it very well. Hsieh Su-wei was indeed pretty, and her doe-like eyes made her look innocent.
Everyone thought to themselves that it was a good thing that their man didn't have such a bad thing. If they knew about it, they would definitely break his legs.
Everyone saw how difficult it was for Shi Qing, except the Lu family, who seemed to be blind.
Lu Wenbai appeared at the right time to save the situation and spoke to the second prince Shen Qingci with a hint of apology.
"Your Highness, today's incident was caused by the inadequacy of our Lu family."
Shen Qingci looked at him and said softly, "I am fine. It was your wife who was slandered. I wonder how Lord Lu plans to deal with this matter and clear my name and that of Madam Lu."
Lu Wenbai glanced at Shi Qing and couldn't help but feel angry. He thought Shi Qing must have done something secretly to make Weiwei irrational.
Shi Qing didn't say anything, but looked at Lu Wenbai with her beautiful eyes, as if waiting for his answer.
Xie Shuwei pursed her lips and said unhappily, "I clearly saw you enter this room just now. I know you are the Marquis's wife, and everyone else is protecting you, but I can't watch you degrade the Marquis like this. Do you dare to admit that you don't have an adulterer?"
She seemed to be gambling. Shi Qing had just been poisoned. If there was no detoxification, and the yin and yang were combined, Shi Qing would not be safe. She was gambling on the woman's guilty conscience.
"I originally thought that Chun'er was behind today's events, secretly throwing mud at me. Now it seems that everything was staged by Miss Xie herself. Today is the old lady's birthday banquet, and you are making such a fuss. Are you dissatisfied with the old lady?"
The old lady happened to come over and almost scolded Hsieh Su-wei when she learned about this.
If it weren't for her little grandson Lu Yuanming, she would never tolerate Hsieh Su-wei doing anything under her nose.
Hsieh Su-wei was stunned. How could Shi Qing, who was usually the most taciturn, be so eloquent? She prided herself on being smart, but she was unable to win over Shi Qing.
Lu Wenbo was a little annoyed. Hsieh Su-wei's hesitation just now had made him certain that this matter was caused by Hsieh Su-wei.
"Madam, today is Mother's birthday party. Don't worry about this matter. I'm sure Weiwei didn't mean it."
Weiwei?
Shi Qing sneered, "My husband, it's not appropriate to call Miss Xie by her name like this."
Shi Qing paused, then continued, "It's true that Miss Xie is your savior, but she has ruined my reputation so much. Could it be that your husband is intentionally biased? If so, I might as well die in a car accident to apologize!"
As she spoke, Shi Qing was about to hit the pillar, but was blocked by a pair of slender hands. Her head hit the man's arm, and she only heard a muffled groan.
Shen Qingci's voice was calm, but full of threat.
"The Emperor originally had high hopes for the Marquis, but he never expected him to be so partial to outsiders. He can't even handle his own family affairs, let alone the affairs of the court. I await the Marquis's reply."
After saying that, Shen Qingci turned around and left Ninghui Hall.
Such a warning also frightened Lu Wenbai. If this matter affected his future, he naturally did not want it to happen.
Everyone was watching the show, but now they realized it was inappropriate to stay any longer, so they turned around and left Ninghui Hall.
The old lady glared at Hsieh Su-wei and spoke to Shi Qing patiently.
"Qingqing, this may be a misunderstanding. Please don't bother with Miss Xie."
Shi Qing smiled slightly, "Of course I won't mind it, but I'm sure the old lady has heard what the Second Prince said just now.
In this matter, it wasn't me that Miss Xie offended. I'd like to ask, I've treated Miss Xie well, so why did she make up this story?"
Hsieh Su-wei knew at this moment that it was too late for her to say anything, and the more she said, the more mistakes she would make. She could only let Lu Wenbo step in to resolve the issue.
She was not panicked at all. After all, in the entire Lu family, only the mistress Shi Qing was isolated and helpless. With time, the position of the marquis's wife would be hers.
Shi Qing didn't care about the expressions of the crowd, and first sold out Chun'er, who had betrayed him and was a traitor.
Then, he turned around and left Ninghui Hall, never looking at the mother and son with those ugly faces again.
Hsieh Su-wei is certainly hateful, but the most heartless ones are the old lady and Lu Wenbo.
Lu Wenbai is really an idiot.
When Shi Qing left the courtyard, he saw Songzhi, his maid, anxiously looking for him.
This girl was brought by the original owner when she married into the Lu family, and she is as close to the original owner as a sister.
In the original plot, after the original owner died, Songzhi knew too many secrets and was secretly eliminated by Hsieh Su-wei.
"Madam, where were you just now? I heard about what happened in Ninghui Hall and was extremely panicked. Fortunately, you are okay, otherwise, I would be to blame."
Songzhi actually started to cry as she spoke, "A woman's reputation is so precious. How could Miss Xie make such a plan?"
Shi Qing stroked Songzhi's cheek and comforted her, "I'm fine, don't cry."
Songzhi paused in wiping her tears, and after leaving the crowded place, she spoke in a low voice.
"Madam, don't you think our Marquis is too doting on Miss Xie? Even if she saved his life, he shouldn't be so protective of her."
In fact, Songzhi had sensed something unusual between Hsieh Su-wei and Lu Wenbo a long time ago.
She saw the admiration in her young lady's eyes, but she didn't say anything in the end because she was worried that her young lady would be sad.
However, she also underestimated Hsieh Su-wei's shamelessness.
Shi Qing rubbed his lower abdomen and said slowly, "Songzhi, I'm a little hungry. Can you prepare dinner for me?"
Songzhi nodded and then went downstairs to prepare.
The courtyard where Shi Qing lived was the most spacious courtyard in the marquis's mansion, with pavilions, waterside terraces and beautiful scenery.
She went straight to the accounting office. Most of the accounts of the Marquis' Mansion were handled by the original owner himself.
Even though the Marquis' Mansion had been in deficit for many years, the old lady and the young ladies in the mansion had never lived too poorly, and they always used the most expensive things.
