Chapter 270 Don't Have the Heart to Harm Others (22)

In a short while, Xiangwei picked up the white pearls scattered all over the ground one by one and held them in her palm. She carefully held these pearls in her palm, her eyes were a little dark, she recognized these pearls from He Lai, she felt a little cold in her heart, but she still pretended to be nonchalant.

Xiangwei walked up to Shangguan Xuanyu slowly, and said respectfully, "Young Madam, I have collected all the pearls!" She couldn't figure out what Shangguan Xuanyu was up to, and she didn't dare to relax at all.

"Really? Thank you for your hard work!" Shangguan Xuanyu stared at her with bright eyes, slightly raised the corner of her mouth, and thanked her softly.

"Young Madam, you are serious, this is all a servant's business!" Xiangwei replied in a subtle way, not allowing herself to relax easily.

business?Very good, since you should give in to your job, then it seems that you don't need to be polite to me anymore!

Shangguan Xuanyu looked at Xiangwei with a smile and asked softly, "Xiangwei, how many pearls are there?" After saying this, she looked at her fixedly, waiting for her to give her an answer.

Although Xiangwei had doubts in her heart, she replied obediently, "A total of eighteen." After speaking, her eyes were nervous, and her lowered eyes sneaked a few glances at the young lady from time to time.

"Oh, it turned out to be eighteen. I didn't even have time to count them. It's still Xiangwei, you are careful!" After hearing her answer, Shangguan Xuanyu immediately praised her, and with a smile in her eyes, she stared closely at the she.

After Xiangwei heard her words, she realized that she was wrong, but there were indeed eighteen pearls, so she couldn't help but lower her head and start counting again.

Seeing her cautious appearance, Qiaoyu, who was standing behind Shangguan Xuanyu, suddenly burst out laughing, and reminded in a low voice, "Miss Xiangwei, how could you be so careful that you could count wrong?" This kind of teasing tone made Xiangwei She blushed instantly, and there was a little panic in her eyes. Could it be just a test?
At this time, Shangguan Xuanyu also said, "Xiangwei, you don't need to count any more, the number of these pearls is still the same as yesterday, we dare not let Sifu Shao's precious things be damaged!" Seeing Xiangwei whose complexion turned pale in an instant, she sneered in her heart, it seemed that she was indeed obstructing it.

Xiangwei quickly lowered her head and argued in a low voice, "I don't understand what the young lady means." In fact, she was already happy and flustered in her heart. She found that the young lady's accusation was aimed at herself, and she seemed to have noticed it. The matter of the garden has nothing to do with her.

"Ming people don't talk dark words, Xiangwei, I have to trouble you to return these pearls to the Fourth Madam!" Shangguan Xuanyu decided early on that this pearl necklace must be the fourth Madam's favorite, and the person who kept it, It must be this Xiangwei, now that the property is returned to the original owner, it would be great for her to have an explanation to the Fourth Madam!

When Xiangwei heard it, she was at a loss for words, and her face showed a bit of embarrassment, her eyes became a little dodged, and she couldn't make up her mind, "I don't know that this pearl is the fourth lady!" Her defense seemed a little weak , because she didn't even have the courage to raise her head, and she obviously began to feel guilty.

"As long as you and I know it, I have reminded you not to have the intention of harming others. Let me let you go this time. Next time, Xiangwei, you have to know how much you can do!" The merciful words came out of Shangguan Xuanyu's mouth clearly and loudly, and instantly reached the ears of all the maidservants, their bodies froze, but they didn't dare to turn their heads to look at Duanxiang, and the atmosphere in the back garden suddenly became a little dignified.
