Qingya didn't know what was going on, so she subconsciously glanced in the direction of someone. When she saw the other person was sipping tea with his head down as if nothing had happened, she knew that now was not the time to involve the other person.
Her instinctive glance did not escape Shen Qingyi's eyes.
There was a hint of contempt in Shen Qingyi's eyes, but she didn't point it out. She just waited quietly for what the maid would say next.
Qingya couldn't guess what was wrong with what she just said, but she also knew that what she said was irreversible, so she had to bite the bullet and said: "I wonder what I said wrong just now, and you actually asked the girl to beat me to death? I really don't know!"
Shen Qingyi smiled and said: "It's not that I'm embarrassing you, it's just that our ancestors have always eaten food and worshiped Buddha, and have never seen anyone fighting or killing. Grandma is kind-hearted, but I pity you that you lost your virginity at a young age, so I allowed you to be my concubine, but you're good
, there is not a word of truth in the few words, Miss Qingya, for the sake of our ancestors, you'd better tell the truth, otherwise, even the eldest brother may not be able to protect you!"
Qingya panicked immediately after hearing this.
Cold sweat broke out on her forehead, but she still desperately knelt down in front of the old lady, kowtowed with tears and said: "Old madam, my mother has always been loyal to you, and the slaves are also free to serve in the house. The Shen family can learn from the world of loyalty!
This servant doesn’t know what the third girl means, but I hope the old lady will understand clearly!"
Shen Qingyi sneered.
"It seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin."
She picked up the tea bowl, removed the tea stem and blew away the hot air, and said, "Liu Ying, go get the diary from the eldest son's room."
Shen Qingyi's words were like questions at the end, and each sentence made Qingya speechless. She collapsed on the ground and trembled, unable to utter even a single word.
The boy responded, opened the file and said: "In the 72nd year of Yongchang, on the sixth day of April, Shenshi, a young friend got married. We were very happy. We went to a banquet and drank together, but my friend did not drink the toast.
Shen Yinian stood up and explained: "Returning to my grandmother, the reason why my grandson came back from Yanqing Mansion was actually temporary because of Sanmei's eye disease. The superiors stipulated that all officials at the prefecture level and above must write down a diary every day to record everything that happened during the holiday.
, it needs to be submitted to the superior after the vacation, and the superior will send someone to verify it, and if there is any falsehood, he will be punished immediately."
"In the diary of that day, there is no record of you entering or leaving my eldest brother's room. Furthermore, even if you went, the diary clearly stated that eldest brother had dispersed all the maids. Why did you come to my eldest brother's room for no reason in the middle of the night?
Bringing tea to my eldest brother? What are your intentions for doing this?!"
When the old lady saw the two dozen thick files, she couldn't help but frowned and said, "What are you doing?"
Frankly speaking, it was on the sixth day of April that I attended the wedding banquet without drinking any alcohol. I only went back to the house halfway through the wedding banquet and stayed in the house until all the lamp oil was burned out before I fell asleep due to sleepiness.
Shen Qingyi stared at someone. When the person heard this, his hand holding the tea cup subconsciously tightened.
The old lady was obviously exhausted mentally and physically by Qingya.
After she finished speaking, she said to the old lady: "Old ancestor, this woman lies a lot and even threatens her with crime. She is definitely not a peaceful person. In my opinion, she should be dragged out and beaten to death immediately!"
She was leaning on a cane, thinking about Aunt Qiu's loyalty during her lifetime, and she didn't understand why the daughter she taught could be such a restless person, so she waved her hand tiredly, indicating that she should follow Yuxiu's words.
Do it.
Shen Jingnian added from the side: "Just now, the third sister said that the threshold in my brother's house is high, and asked you if the tea you served was Dahongpao. You admitted it by using the donkey down the slope. I didn't say whether what you said was true or false, but just said that brother I have never drank Dahongpao.
"You don't even know my eldest brother's preferences, so how can you say that my eldest brother has become close to you because of tea?"
Liuying said crisply: "I understand!"
As soon as the Wen family member left, Qingya felt even more confused. She was about to plead for herself in front of the old lady with tears in her eyes, when she heard the old lady say: "That's all, let's listen to the words of the third girl first. If her mother is watching from heaven, she will no longer think that we have wronged her daughter."
The second young master, Shen Jingnian, then said, "If you really miss your eldest brother, you can ask your ancestors to make the decision. For the sake of Aunt Qiu, grandma will definitely fulfill your wish. Why do you insist on taking the wrong path?" An act of deception? You almost kept even our ancestors in the dark! There is absolutely no reason for our government to condone such people who tell lies!"
Wenshi sneered and said: "My ancestors originally wanted to keep you by my boss's side for the sake of your mother, but I didn't expect that you didn't focus on how to serve the master, but instead focused on cheating!"
Yuxiu, who was beside the ancestor, angrily shouted: "How brave! Are you threatening the old lady by saying this?!"
Qingya couldn't help but froze on the spot after hearing the words, her face turned pale, tears welled up in her eyes, and she couldn't say a word for a while.
Where can I have the free time to play with her like Qingya said?
After the lie was exposed, Qingya couldn't help but turn pale, but she still deliberately showed her arm that had lost Shou Gongsha, wanting to make a final struggle, and said: "But..."
After a while, Liu Ying came in with two young men who were waiting for Shen Yinian, holding two files.
"During the banquet, I read the family documents without checking, and the banquet was not finished. I left in a hurry, avoiding the maidservants, until the oil lamp burned out at Haishi, and I fell asleep tiredly."
After hearing this, the old lady understood the meaning of Shen Qingyi's move.
Qingya is just a little maid. She has grown up in a small courtyard. Naturally, she doesn't know the key to it. She also doesn't know that what she said has just been exposed. Now it is just to establish evidence for her crime, so she is confused. He even forgot to ask for mercy and looked up at the people around him in a daze.
Mrs. Wen obviously understood what Shen Qingyi meant, so she raised her eyebrows and whispered to the maid behind her. After hearing this, the maid nodded and left quickly with another maid.
Shen Jingnian said: "What are you doing standing still? Why don't you read the diary written by the elder brother the day before yesterday according to the time Miss Qingya just mentioned?"
Seeing Shen Jingnian say this, Qingya knew that he wanted to drive her out of the house. Her face was like gold paper, and she suddenly kowtowed and said: "Old ancestor, my mother has been working as a cow and horse to serve my ancestor all her life. Even if she has no merit, There is also hard work. If you drive the slaves out of the house, how will outsiders treat you, ancestor?"
"Grandma wait!"
Just when Yuxiu was about to call someone to drive Qingya out of the house, Shen Qingyi suddenly stopped her.
"Ayao was thinking that Miss Qingya was raised by Nanny Qiu and should be peaceful. Suddenly, she had thoughts that she shouldn't have. She knew that there must be someone behind her."
As she spoke, she looked at Qingya again: "If you now find out who is behind the scenes, I can still spare your life. If you don't want to, I will drag you out immediately and beat you until you are willing to tell the truth!"
