The eldest lady thought this method was very good, but Lou Zhentian couldn't think of a good way for a while. He ordered the old housekeeper to take people down to search the rooms of the second lady, the third lady and Lou Mingyu and Yun Buhui.
Yun Buhui frowned slightly, with a hint of displeasure. She didn't want others to touch the things in her house.
Lou Yanran happened to glance at Yun Buhui from the corner of her eyes and said with a slight smile, "Sister Buhui, my cousin knows that you are a proud person and will not care about these gold and silver jewelry. Don't be unhappy either. It's just a routine search."
Yun Buhui smiled faintly and said, "My cousin was joking."
The eldest lady looked at Yun Buhui a few more times. Half an hour later, the old housekeeper came back with a red bean bracelet and a gold-plated pearl hairpin.
The eldest lady carefully identified it and slapped the table angrily, "Who is it? This is the jewelry from my mother's family. Where are the other jewelry?"
The old housekeeper led his servants to kneel on the ground. Lou Zhentian asked, "Whose room were these things found from?"
The old housekeeper was hesitant and uneasy. When he heard a loud noise, Lou Zhentian also became angry. He had to tell the truth, "Sir, madam, the things were found in my cousin's room."
Lou Yanran turned around in surprise, staring at Yun Buhui, is it her?
Everyone's eyes were fixed on Buhui, either surprised, shocked, or contemptuous... The third lady blurted out, "Impossible, Lao Zhang, are you sure?"
"It's absolutely true, I don't dare to lie." Lao Zhang said.
After Yun Buhui was at a loss, he glanced at everyone in the hall in the lightning flash, ignoring their various looks, thinking in his heart, who is it? Who is framing her?
The old housekeeper has been in the building for many years. She is a loyal person and will not lie. If anything is found in her room, someone must have put it in without knowing it. It only took a day from yesterday to today. No one has been to Xuemei.
Residence.
She was just thinking about it when she suddenly heard Lou Zhentian yelling angrily, "Kneel down!"
Bingyue shouted loudly, "Master, the lady did not steal anything. This slave can testify."
Yun Buhui walked to the center of the hall and knelt down. His master knelt down. Bingyue also hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down, still aggrieved by Yun Buhui. Lou Zhentian pointed angrily at Yun Buhui with his long finger, "It's you...
It's you...bastard!"
Lou Zhentian grabbed a cup on the table and threw it at Yun Buhui angrily. The cup hit Yun Buhui on the forehead, and the tea spilled all over her. Her forehead only felt numb and painful, and blood gushed out.
Everyone was shocked. It was rare for Lou Zhentian to be so angry. No matter how angry he was, it was just a small anger and not scary.
The third lady felt pain and pity, and shouted, "Master, the matter has not been found out yet, why should I be angry? I regret that my body is fragile and cannot withstand such a strong force from you."
Lou Zhentian pointed at Yun Buhui and said angrily, "Niezhan, your mother, Gao Hua Shengjie, is not a young person. How could you give birth to someone like you, Niezhang? It has completely disgraced the Lou family."
The third lady was anxious, angry, and distressed, but she did not dare to dissuade her. In all the years she had been married to Lou Zhentian, this was the first time she had seen him get so angry.
Yun Buhui wiped his forehead, and there was blood on his hand. Bingyue shouted in distress, covering Yun Buhui's bleeding wound with a handkerchief. His eyes turned red. Yun Buhui raised his head slightly, and uttered a few words firmly and clearly,
"I didn't steal anything."
"If you didn't steal anything, how could that thing be in your hands?" the eldest lady asked sharply. Naturally, she would not let go of a good opportunity to straighten things out without regrets.
Ever since the engagement, Lou Yanran has been feeling very uncomfortable. The eldest lady knows what Lou Yanran is worried about, and she has always said the same thing, but after all, it is her treasure. Lou Yanran is not happy, and the eldest lady is also distressed. All of this is...
Because Yun Buhui had a rare opportunity to vent her anger for Lou Yanran, and in her anger, new and old hatreds came together, so she asked Xiangyun to pour another cup of tea for Lou Zhentian, wishing that Lou Zhentian would smash the tea cup at Yun Buhui again.
regret.
Lou Yanran raised her eyebrows, shook her head and said, "Sister Bu Regret, my cousin knows that my mother's family has prepared a lot of dowry, which puts a lot of pressure on you. You feel unhappy, but after all, it is the mother's family's intention, and it is not my cousin's intention.
If you are angry, you shouldn't steal one or two items. The number is auspicious, so missing one is indispensable. Aren't you cursing your cousin? Your cousin has treated you well since childhood, and is about to marry a Cheng family brother as your sister-in-law.
, why did you harm your cousin?"
Lou Yanyun said harshly, "My aunt has a daughter like you. She is really stubborn. She is worthy of being raised in the house since she was a child. If she is not a serious master's girl, no one will bother to educate her and she will lose her temper. She will steal one or two things from the house.
It’s easy to say that if such scandalous things were done in the palace in the future, people would not say what kind of daughter the Lou family was, how my aunt came to be the head of the family, and how she taught such a shameful thing."
The third lady is certainly angry, but it is really hard to refute her. The more she refutes, the more people become suspicious.
Although the Second Madam doesn't like Yun Buhui, she even less likes the First Madam's one-bedroom apartment. In recent days, because of how expensive her mother's dowry is, she has been showing off to everyone. The Second Madam is also a very generous person, so she naturally doesn't like it.
The eldest lady and her daughter treated Buhui so harshly. She knew in her heart that it was partly because the prince loved and cared for Yun Buhui, but Cheng Youtian reacted coldly. They felt resentful and this happened again, Buhui must suffer.
Bingyue was furious when she saw their mother and daughter speaking harshly. Yun Buhui held her hand tightly and refused to allow her to speak out. It was the head of the family who spoke, and Bingyue interrupted. If they couldn't hit her, they would definitely take it out on Bingyue.
After weighing the matter, the second lady said, "Master, I have watched Buhui grow up, and I don't necessarily have a good relationship with Buhui on weekdays. But I can speak according to my conscience. Buhui is as noble as a plum, and I definitely won't."
It may not be the case to do such scandalous things. The master hurt people in his anger. If he blames the wrong person and the prince becomes angry, who will bear this anger?"
Lou Zhentian was startled and realized that he had gone too far in his anger. However, the evidence was conclusive and she could not escape the suspicion. Bingyue kept saying that Yun Buhui was innocent.
Lou Shaoqi sarcastically said, "You are my cousin's maid, so naturally you say my cousin is innocent. It's clearly something found in her room. How can you be innocent?"
The third lady asked the old housekeeper, "Butler, were you there that day when Miss Ciao went to count the dowry? Did she touch the third lady's dowry?"
The old housekeeper said, "No, my cousin likes the Soviet-style mirror stand. She spent half an hour enjoying it and focused on the mirror stand, but..."
He hesitated to speak, Yun Buhui closed his eyes slightly, and the eldest lady asked urgently, "But what?"
