Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 211 Xiaotao's Conspiracy (4)

Soon, someone found the frightened Xia Jiu and brought her to Zhu Jinlun.

Xia Jiu knelt down tremblingly, lowered her head, her heart beating like a drum.

In fact, she had followed all the way just now, but when she reached the door, she suddenly stopped her steps.

Because things happened so fast, she was only concerned about being shocked, and didn't think deeply for a while. Now that she thought about it carefully, she suddenly realized that she had already fallen into a huge trouble... She was a bystander, In case the second young master asks more questions, she will be the first to be questioned.However, the truth is there, but the words cannot be spoken casually.

Although Miss Du Juan is powerful, Miss Xiaotao is also terrible... She hesitated for a moment, what should she say, what should she do, which side should she choose... At this moment, Zhu Jinlun's eyes were fixed on Xia Jiu's body , and asked, "Tell me, what happened just now?"

His words made everyone's hearts tense.

Du Juan couldn't help interjecting, "Xia Jiu, you have to tell the truth."

Xiaotao's eyes darkened, and then she whispered, "Xia Jiu, don't be afraid. With the Second Young Master here, no one dares to bully you. Tell me carefully, who hurt me?"

After hearing this, Du Juan snorted coldly, and said in his heart: It's ridiculous, it's all this time, what's the hypocrisy.

Xia Jiu's heart trembled, and she didn't know what to say.While hesitating, she suddenly remembered the strange words that Miss Tao had said to her when she combed her hair earlier. "Actually, there is no difference between you and me. We both have the same status and are servants. It's just that I have one more thing than you, so you came to serve me."

At that time, she just shook her head and didn't dare to answer, so Miss Xiaotao continued: "I have one more thing than you, and that is Second Young Master's love. Because of Second Young Master, I can sit here and be served by you."

"...Yes, girls are more blessed than slaves, the second young master loves you the most, girl..."

She just replied plainly at that time, without thinking, Miss Xiaotao suddenly turned her head to look at her, and asked: "You know that the second young master likes me, so why are you afraid of that cuckoo? Why are you never afraid of me?"

"Uh... What's wrong with the girl? You're so good, why ask this... May I give you the grate again?"

She originally wanted to brush off the topic, but Xiaotao asked very seriously: "I'm asking you something? Why aren't you afraid of me?"

"Slave...because you are a good girl, girl."

She replied subconsciously, but Xiao Tao girl laughed for a while after listening, but her laughter was very cold: "Hehe, good man, how do you know that I am a good person? There have never been any good people in this world, and I am not... ..."

Their conversation, just here, was interrupted by the sudden arrival of Du Juan, and then such a shocking scene happened, which caught people off guard.

Xia Jiu wondered uneasily, if she told the truth and the second young master didn't believe it, or didn't care, would Miss Xiaotao take revenge on her?She even dared to touch her own face, so she would be more cruel to others...Maybe, I shouldn't be telling the truth...Maybe, Miss Xiaotao is really scarier than Du Juan...Zhu Jinlun saw her late He refused to speak, and was about to urge her, but she bit her lip and murmured: "Yes...it's Sister Du Juan, she hurt Miss Xiaotao."

As soon as her words fell, it was like a stone falling on the surface of a lake, splashing a huge splash.

Du Juan almost broke down and went straight to Xia Jiu, raised his hand and slapped her hard, and asked, "Say it again? Are you blind or confused?"

Xiaotao was next to her, and she was terrified when she heard it. Fortunately, Xia Jiu was smarter than she imagined... Just as Du Juan was still immersed in anger, a communication from outside the door made her calm down immediately.

"The second lady is here."

Zhu Fu was standing by the door, so he was the first to react, facing the direction of the person, knelt down and saluted and said, "Slave pays respects to Madam, Madam is auspicious."

Chai supported the servant girl's hand with one hand, and gently protected her swollen belly with the other. She walked slowly and looked calm.

Seeing his mother coming, Zhu Jinlun's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Why is mother here?" After speaking, his eyes swept over Zhu Fu's body, as if he was dissatisfied.

He had explained earlier in the morning, don't make a fuss, don't make a fuss, but in the end, some people still talked too much.

Chai looked at his son, stretched out his hand, put his arm lightly and said: "I heard that there is blood all over, why don't I come and see what happened? Who is injured?"

When Du Juan saw that the second lady had arrived in time, she was both surprised and delighted. Tears of grievance fell down, and she knelt down on the ground, choked with sobs and said, "Madam, you are here at last. Do you want to be the master of your servant?"

When Xiaotao saw Mrs. Chai coming, she felt a thump in her heart. She didn't expect that Madam would come so soon.So, without thinking about it, I turned over and got out of bed.

Zhu Jinlun personally supported his mother to sit down. She was pregnant, so she couldn't stand up, and she came all the way here.

Although his eyes were all on his mother, when he noticed that Xiao Tao got out of bed regardless of her injuries, he still reminded her: "Be careful of the wound."

Chai raised her eyebrows slightly, glanced at her son, but said nothing.

Just now, Mrs. Chai was actually ready to go to sleep.However, she suddenly felt a little hungry, so she ordered her maid, Qiuyan, to go to the kitchen to bring some supper.Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone came in from outside and said that something happened in Zhu Jinlun's room.

Although, it was just a contradiction between some subordinates, but blood was seen.Mrs. Chai was very displeased when she heard that, before the reporter finished speaking, she guessed that it was related to Du Juan and Xiaotao.Because by Zhu Jinlun's side, now there are people who are courageous and capable of making trouble, she thought, there are only the two of them.At that time, Du Juan went out from her side. The reason why Chai took a fancy to her was because she was young, quick in handling things, and somewhat pretty. The most important thing was that she obeyed her own words.

At this moment, Xiaotao and Dujuan were both kneeling on the ground, one was weeping silently, the other was sobbing, but Chai ignored it, picked up the teacup carelessly, and took a sip of tea.Although she didn't look at them, she was always paying attention to everyone's every move from the corner of her eye.

Relying on the master-servant relationship between himself and the second wife, Du Juan eagerly climbed up to her, and cried bitterly: "Ma'am, the servant did not hurt anyone, everything was done by Xiaotao to frame the servant on purpose, she deliberately dug a hole for the servant to jump in , let the second young master hate slaves."

Chai frowned impatiently, gently stroked her belly, glanced at Du Juan and said, "If you have something to say, if you make a mistake, don't cry, it seems like something happened, it's unlucky." .”

After hearing this, Du Juan didn't dare to cry loudly, but sobbed softly.

Chai didn't even ask what happened, but said, "Xiao Tao, come here and let me see your face."

Xiaotao stepped forward in response, looking at Chai with tears in her eyes, and said in a strong nasal voice: "Servant, send your regards to Second Madam."

Seeing her extremely aggrieved look, Mrs. Chai rolled her eyes, and then fell on her cheeks, directly lifted her chin, then tore off the medicinal cloth on her face, and looked again and again.

Xiao Tao's shoulders trembled. Although she tried her best to hide her uneasiness, she still felt uncertain in front of Chai.In the scene just now, she just had an idea, if it weren't for Du Juan's aggressiveness, maybe she wouldn't have made such a bad move.

Chai's eyes were sharp, she stared at Xiaotao's face for a few seconds, and suddenly she felt concerned, she slowly withdrew her hand, and said lightly: "I thought it was a big deal? It's just a little bit of skin damage. That's all, it's okay."

She spoke so calmly that Xiaotao's heart sank, but Du Juan had the bottom line in her heart. Thinking about it, the second lady would be so calm, she must have known it well and was ready to protect herself.

Seeing that Zhu Jinlun was still standing beside her, Mrs. Chai pointed to the place next to her and said, "It's not uncommon for maids to make noises occasionally. There is no need for such a big battle, so sit down first."

Zhu Jinlun pondered for a while, thinking that since his mother came, he must first listen to her.After all, Du Juan is also half of her.

He then sat down and said in a deep voice, "Mum, please worry. It's the son who doesn't discipline himself strictly."

Mrs. Chai stroked her belly very gently, and smiled lightly: "The servants are ignorant, so it has nothing to do with you. After all, you are not married yet, and there is no good wife around you who can take care of things. Speaking of which, the courtyard The housekeeping and housework inside, these messy things, should be taken care of by women. How can a big man be able to handle them well? Men do big things. However, you don't have to worry about it. Once the new wife enters the door, Once there is an upright mistress in the house, she will take care of it for you, and no one will dare to mess around without knowing what is good or bad."

What Chai said made Du Juan and Xiaotao have different expressions, but they both felt cold.

On the surface, these words were said to Zhu Jinlun, but in fact, every sentence, every word was deliberately said to the two of them.

Sure enough, Mrs. Chai followed the conversation, looked at Xiaotao and Du Juan, and reprimanded: "Fortunately, you are all able-bodied people around the second young master, but none of you are sensible. No matter who is right or wrong about today's matter, you Both will be punished."

Zhu Jinlun said: "Mother, I'm afraid this is not fair."

"Son, you can't slap one hand, so no matter who picks it first, it's two people's fault."

In fact, since she entered the room, she already understood a little bit.One was kneeling on the ground, the other was leaning on the bed, and was injured. It was easy to know who was right and who was wrong without asking.

However, Chai still wanted to favor Du Juan.Firstly, it was because she was "one of my own", and secondly, it was also because she had intentionally asked Du Juan to beat and beat Xiaotao before, so that Xiaotao could be more honest and behaved.

Looking at it this way today, Du Juan has indeed listened to her words, but the means are too stupid.I thought she was smart, but it seems that she is still clumsy and has insufficient brains.A person who usually looks very smart, but at this time she lost the chain, which made Chai a lot of disappointed in her.

After hearing Chai's words, Du Juan felt frightened and wronged, unable to figure out what she was thinking.

The expression on Xiaotao's face also changed slightly.It seems that Chai's meaning is to be "unselfish".
