Reborn as the spoiled male wife of the mortal enemy

"Master, old lady, these were all found in the Green Lotus Room!"

Not long after, Mother Lan came back from Jingyuan with a few maids. They found a lot of good things from the Green Lotus Room.

"Oh! Isn't this the rouge and powder that my cousin brought back for me from Yangcheng? I've been looking for it for a long time!" Wu Yiren exclaimed.

"Aunt, here's the headdress you ordered for Yiren a while ago!" Xu Huiling said in disbelief, her eyes wide open. "I thought Yiren had lost it carelessly and even scolded her."

Old Madam Bai blushed with embarrassment, nearly choking on her breath. "What a sin! My Bai family has always been known for its strict ethics, how could such a scoundrel appear?"

Bai Yishui's face turned pale.

The Bai family is famous for its good family traditions.

If the news of the servant stealing gets out, it will bring shame to the Bai family.

"I didn't steal! These were given to me by Mama Liu!" Lu He kowtowed and defended herself.

"You are a maid in Jingyuan and have nothing to do with her. You have no say in the mansion. Why would she give you these things for no reason?" Bai Xun asked.

Yes, why?

Why did she...

Lu He suddenly remembered what Bai Xun had said before.

Could it be that you drugged me because of my cousin?

"You...you...you used me!" Lu He pointed at Mother Liu and shouted angrily.

She wiped her tears and no longer concealed it: "Master, old lady. I heard from Madam Liu that the old lady wanted me to be the second young master's maid, so I had this delusion.

Madam Liu also said that my cousin's friend had used drugs to have a night of love with the master, got pregnant, and entered the master's house. I thought of giving the second young master the tranquilizer she gave me, and then taking advantage of the opportunity... If I could get pregnant with the second young master's child, I would be able to fly to the top of the family.

But after I drugged her, I entered the study and before I could do anything, I was knocked unconscious. I really don’t know anything about my cousin’s affairs.”

Xu Huiling frowned and said hurriedly, "Have you lost your mind, you slut? Come, drag this biting slut out and beat her to death with sticks!"

"Wait!" Bai Xun said sternly, "If she is guilty, someone will judge her!"

"Are we just going to let her make random accusations?" Xu Huiling said with a dark face.

"If you really didn't do it, she won't be able to bite you. Aunt, why are you so anxious?"

"This concerns my beloved's reputation. How can I not be anxious?"

Bai Xun sneered, "Han Li ruined my cousin's reputation. Shouldn't my aunt question Han Li carefully? Even if Lu He drugged him, how did a frail woman like her manage to get the tall and strong Han Li onto the couch in my study? Moreover, Han Li was drugged. How could he have done anything intimate with my cousin?"

Hearing this, everyone had different expressions.

"Han Li, explain yourself!" Bai Xun's eyes were icy cold.

Han Li looked away guiltily and stammered, "Maybe... maybe the medicine she gave me wasn't a tranquilizer, but something else!"

"Yes! This little brat is full of bad intentions and has lots of bad tricks!" Mother Liu helped.

"Oh, now it's some other medicine." Bai Xun curled his lips and continued, "Grandfather, this lawsuit is difficult to decide now. Why don't we report it to the authorities? They need to thoroughly investigate who is right and who is wrong."

"No! We can't report this to the police!" Xu Huiling said nervously, "Master, if we report this to the police and everyone knows about it, how will Yiren live her life in the future?"

Bai Xun said coldly, "My cousin doesn't want to report this to the authorities and get to the bottom of it. And she's making such a scene in the house. What exactly do you want?"

Xu Huiling looked at the gloomy Bai Yishui, her heart aching with anxiety. She stood up, kicked Lu He, and said with gritted teeth, "You don't agree! Anyway, our Yiren suffered in the Bai family's old house! The Bai family needs to give us, the Wu family, an explanation!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Yishui's expression became even uglier.

"Hui Ling, what are you talking about?" Mrs. Bai looked at her in astonishment.

"Grandfather, since Auntie doesn't want to report to the police but is forcing our Bai family to give an explanation, we can only use the Bai family's old method of interrogating people." Bai Xun said lightly, "Luhe, Xiao Han must be tried as the culprit. Mei'er and Mother Liu's testimonies are inconsistent and there are serious doubts. They must also be tried together."

When Xu Huiling heard this, her face turned pale.

Bai Yishui took a sip of tea and said, "Baishan, you take care of it!"

Bai Shan said, "Yes, Patriarch."

Mother Liu had seen Butler Bai interrogate people, inserting silver needles into fingernails one by one...

At this moment, cold sweat broke out on her back, her legs were weak, and her whole body was shaking violently.

"Master, lynching... this is not a good idea."

Xu Huiling naturally also knew the methods of Butler Bai.

If torture really happened, Xiao Han would be fine, but Mother Liu and Mei'er would definitely not be able to bear it for a moment.

Lu He wiped her tears and shouted, "Whether it's reporting to the police or lynching, I am willing to bear it! I admit what I have done. No one should try to throw dirty water on me for what I have not done!"

Having said that, everything is self-evident.

Xu Huiling was in a dilemma. She walked up to Han Li and slapped him in the face, angrily saying, "Swear on your family! Did someone deliberately frame you, or did you do this on purpose with ill intentions?"

family……

Han Li opened his mouth, his heart went cold, and he lowered his head dejectedly.

He knew that he had no way out now.

"Madam, I am possessed by a demon, a toad dreaming of swan flesh. I am delusional and lusty towards the young lady! When I saw the young lady coming to bring soup to the second young master, I felt resentful and hid in Jingyuan in advance.

I knocked Lu He unconscious because I was afraid she would ruin my plans. Then the young lady came in, and I took advantage of the darkness in the room so she couldn't recognize me and forced myself on her. Damn it! It's all my fault!"

"Uncle Shan, stop working. The truth is suddenly revealed!" Bai Xun said sarcastically.

Bai Yishui took a sip of tea and asked expressionlessly, "Does our Bai family have anything else to say to your Wu family?"

Xu Huiling shook her head awkwardly and said sheepishly, "Master, Aunt, I'm so sorry! I was too impatient just now and said something without thinking..."

Mrs. Bai snorted coldly and said, "Alas, I am old and confused. Since yesterday, my head has been hurting badly."

"Go back and rest!" Bai Yishui said.

Mother Lan then helped Mrs. Bai leave.

Xu Huiling's heart sank. She had made a fool of herself. Not only did she not gain any benefits, but she also lost the support of the people.

"Since it was committed by one of your own men, take him back to Ancheng and let Wu Fa deal with him!" said Bai Yishui.

"Yes, master."

"As for Lu He, she can't stay in the old house. Bai Xun is a person from your courtyard. It's up to you to decide how to deal with her!" Bai Yishui sighed, rubbing his forehead.
