Chapter 423: The Daughter of My Old Friend Aunt Fang
There were two people standing in the hall, two servants sent by Jiangzhou. When they saw their faces clearly, Qin Yuru's expression changed drastically.
Qin Yuru was not the only one present who changed their expressions. Qin Wanru's eyes calmly swept over several people who had changed their expressions, and his eyes became darker and darker.
The expressions of the few people present had changed. They all had their own plans. They thought their wishes would come true soon, but they didn't expect Qi Rongzhi to come out to disrupt the situation.
"Sister Yuru, you don't know them, do you?" Qi Rongzhi stared at Qin Yuru's face and said with a cold smile.
"Miss, you really don't know me, do you? My mother used a trick for you to push your marriage to the second lady. I secretly helped you pass the news to the eldest son of Qi, saying that the marriage was to the second lady. The young lady robbed you, but you were the victim. You also hinted that Mr. Qi avenged you and ruined the reputation of the second young lady. My slave and my mother are so loyal to the young lady, but the young lady beat my mother to death and wanted to silence me. !”
A woman kneeling below raised her head. She was seventeen or eighteen years old. The most eye-catching thing was a scar on her forehead, which ran from the center of her forehead to her right cheek, almost disfiguring her entire face. .
Even so, the woman's pretty eyebrows can still be vaguely seen.
"You...you are Xi...Xixiang..." Qin Yuru covered her mouth with a handkerchief and said tremblingly.
Xi Xiang is the daughter of Qin Wanru's former housekeeper, Grandma Fang, and is the second-class maid in Qin Yuru's yard.
Qin Wanru's eyes swept over Xi Xiang's face calmly, with a trace of ridicule flashing in her eyes. After something happened to Grandma Fang, she also thought about going to Grandma Fang's daughter and trying to get something out of her. More useful evidence came out, but unexpectedly the news came out that Xi Xiang had slipped and fell into the river and drowned.
The river flows very fast, and many people on the ground in Jiangzhou have drowned. Besides, she is only a second-class maid. If the master doesn't pursue the matter, it will be considered a pass.
Qin Wanru had suspected such a coincidence at first, but there were so few people around her that she could not find out about it for a while, and then let it go.
Now it seems that Qin Yuru took action as soon as something happened to Aunt Fang. But what surprised her was that the maid was actually rescued by people from Qi Mansion. It seems that Qi Tianyu even brought her to the capital.
Qi Tianyu already knew the inside story of what happened back then, but he was still trying to be tactful with Qin Yuru, but he didn't know what he was planning.
"Miss, do you think it's strange why my slave is still alive? My servant deceived me to the river and took my life. However, my life was lucky and I survived. The mother and daughter of this slave devoted themselves wholeheartedly to the sake of the slave. It’s all retribution for harming the second young lady and ending up like this in the end, but isn’t the eldest lady afraid of thunder and lightning?”
Xi Xiang raised her head and looked at Qin Yuru bitterly. Her voice was not loud, but every word was sharp, and the hatred almost struck Qin Yuru hard with a cold tone.
Qin Yuru took two steps back, staggering and almost unable to stand, her face as pale as snow.
Mrs. Yong-Kangbo's fingers were trembling. Although she loved Qin Yuru, her granddaughter, she also loved Di Yan. At this time, she discovered that her granddaughter was actually as rumored, and she was a little different from the eldest son of Qi Mansion. They became a couple in a little while, and judging from what the maid said, the two of them were very ambiguous in private.
His face turned green at first, then turned pale, and then turned red with anger.
No matter how biased she is, she still knows that Qin Yuru really has an affair with Qi Tianyu, and she can't bear to forgive her grandson. As Qin Yuru's grandmother, she should scold Xi Xiang and stop her from talking at this time, but as Di But she wanted to hear the truth about Grandma Yan.
After Di Yan and Qin Yuru came to Beijing, they both told her about a past incident in Jiangzhou. They both said that the incident was false. It was a past incident between Qin Wanru and Qi Tianyu. It had nothing to do with Qin Yuru, but it was just some people. I couldn't figure out the names of the two sisters, so I just spread rumors.
For her daughter and granddaughter whom she had not seen for many years, Mrs. Yong-Kangbo's house naturally believed deeply. Who would have expected that the truth would be like this. Thinking of Di Yan crying in front of her and asking to break off the engagement, Mrs. Tai felt that she I feel sorry for my grandson.
The palm of her hand was made of flesh, and the back of her hand was also made of flesh. She didn't know whether to stop it or not. She could only grit her teeth and continue to listen. At this time, what she was thinking about was how to explain this matter to Di Yan. She was glad at this time. Mrs. Yong-Kangbo was not here today because she had something to do. Otherwise, she would never let Qin Yuru in again if she heard such things.
"You... how dare you, a cheap girl, dare to slander me like this." Qin Yuru was so anxious that she could hardly breathe, and she gritted her teeth.
"If you slander your old master, you will be killed with a stick after being sent to the official position!" Mrs. Xingguo shouted in support from the side.
"I have died once, and my mother was killed with a stick. All of these are gifts from the eldest lady, and I will never forget them!"
Xi Xiang sneered and said in a hateful voice, with a trace of blood red in her eyes. Whether it was her words or her expression, she hated Qin Yuru.
He reached out and took out a letter from his arms, "This is the letter from the eldest lady about her appointment with Mr. Qi."
In fact, this letter was not kept privately by Xi Xiang at that time. Qi Rongzhi dug it out from Qi Tianyu's study this time. When they were in Jiangzhou, Qin Yuru and Qi Tianyu were in love with each other, even if the two families had their own feelings. Although it is not easy for unmarried men and women to meet each other, it is normal to write some affectionate letters secretly and privately.
Sometimes I avoid meeting the adults in the house and write letters to make appointments.
At that time, Qin Yuru also habitually wrote a letter to meet Qi Tianyu. In order to prevent Qi Tianyu from misunderstanding her, she specifically wrote many bad things about Qin Yuru in the letter. On the one hand, she said that she desperately wanted to meet Qi Tianyu, but because Qin Yuru robbed her of her marriage , making her unable to afford the illness, and on the other hand, she expressed how much she missed Qi Tianyu.
Lin Lin Zongzong wrote a lot, every word was affectionate. Although there was no direct resentment towards Qin Wanru in his words, there was self-pity and self-pity in his words, and there was even a sense of self-abandonment, implying to Qi Tianyu that if she could not marry Qin Wanru, she would If you have no love in life, you will never be happy again.
And it was Qin Wanru who caused all this!
"Mrs. Tai, please read this letter." Qi Rongzhi took the letter from Xi Xiang and proudly handed it to Mrs. Xingguo.
She didn't expect that she would gain so much.
"Mrs. Madam, these letters are all fake. This maid is indeed my former maid, but she was punished by me for an incident. I never thought that she would secretly hate her, and now she is still filthy. Trap me." Although Qin Yuru wanted to grab the letter, she also knew that she couldn't act in vain.
"Frame you? Sister Yuru, just don't frame others! My eldest brother's reputation has been ruined by you!" Qi Rongzhi mocked mercilessly, and handed the letter in her hand to Grandma Yu.
Aunt Yu silently took it and handed it to Mrs. Xingguo Gongfu who was sitting on the high seat.
Mrs. Xingguo's wife reached out to take it, looked at it carefully and handed it to Mrs. Yong-Kangbo's house. Her face was very ugly.
After seeing it, Mrs. Yong-Kangbo's face turned green and red, feeling ashamed and angry! If Qin Yuru was not her granddaughter, if Di was not in such a situation now, she could hardly help but throw the letter in Qin Yuru's face.
She scrunched up the paper in her hand with trembling fingers. At this moment, even the well-informed Mrs. Yong-combote didn't know what she should do. She wanted to destroy the letter, but she couldn't. Knowing that I am doing this makes people feel more and more obvious, and my identity does not allow me to do such a thing.
He glanced sideways at a confidant who was standing behind him. The confidant took a step forward and was about to take the paper and tear it up.
The master cannot tear it apart, but the servants can tear it apart. After tearing it apart, they can just blame the maid.
The letter paper did not fall into the mother-in-law's hand. She quickly took the letter paper from Mrs. Yong-combe's hand with her other hand. "After Mrs. Yong-combe has read it, let us, old lady, have a look."
Yujie said with a smile, reaching out and handing the paper in her hand to Mrs. Qin. Qin Wanru had asked her to keep an eye on Mrs. Yong-Kang Botai, just for fear that she would destroy the evidence.
Mrs. Qin read it calmly, sighed heavily, and handed the letter to Qin Huaiyong.
Qin Huaiyong's face was ugly. He read ten lines at a glance, slapped the letter paper in his hand heavily on the table, and shouted sternly: "Rebellious girl, how dare you do this!"
"Father, this letter is really not written by my daughter. Someone deliberately impersonated my handwriting. I...how could I write such a letter!"
Qin Yuru covered her face and cried loudly.
"Didn't you write it?" Mrs. Yong-Kang Botai rolled her eyes and suddenly felt that she was alive again.
"Grandma, of course I didn't write this letter. I don't know what sister Rongzhi means. Why do you treat me like this? Is it because I am favored by the dowager? If so, then I don't recognize my relatives anymore, Rongzhi. Sister Zhi, please let me go!" Qin Yuru cried, turned around, and knelt down with a plop in front of Qi Rongzhi, with tears falling down one by one, looking heartbroken.
She knew clearly that she could never admit it at this time. If she refused to admit it, she didn't believe what Qi Rongzhi could do to her. The letter could be forged, and the witness could also be deliberately framed by her.
At this moment, Qin Yuru's mind was clearer than ever before. The biggest grudge between Qi Ronzhi and herself was because she wanted to become the god-granddaughter of the Dowager Princess of Xingguo Palace. She was afraid that she would steal her favor, so she would risk everything to expose the past.
She bet that Qi Rongzhi couldn't produce any other evidence except these forged evidence.
Most of the people present were facing her. As long as she killed him in one bite, she didn't believe what Qi Rongzhi could do to her!
Qin Wanru lowered her head slightly and tugged at the corner of her clothes. She was very happy to see this scene, and she had specially made it happen. There was a coldness in her eyes. Qi Rongzhi might not be that capable, but Qi Tianyu was different. She had known he would Have a backup plan...
