Chapter 13 The Man Behind
Su Ruan immediately thought of what Ru Yan once told her, there are many gossips in the backyard of a wealthy family, alas, it is really difficult to be a human being!After sighing, she raised her little hand and looked at it.

Hehe, it's not very transparent anymore, I guess it will be better if you sleep more, Su Ruan closed her eyes, and when she was about to fall asleep, she also glanced at Pei Jiyan who was copying scriptures.

Well, so good!She must find some delicious food to feed at night.

Pei Jiyan was upset at the moment. He always felt that something was wrong. Ru's miscarriage was because someone moved the kitchen?
Kitchen, kitchen?He immediately thought of the plate of food last night, and the pen in his hand fell on the table with a clatter.

The door was also pushed open from the outside almost at the same time. Butler Qi walked in, looked at Pei Jiyan who was sitting at the desk, and said in a strange tone: "Master Biao, Mrs. Hou wants to see you, come with me."

Pei Jiyan glanced at Yu Qingnian who was following Butler Qi. He was holding a tray in his hand, which contained some fragments of plates and some messy food.

So, what happened in his room these past few days was caused by his aunt who asked someone to do it?

Is it because he pushed Qi Jie into the water? Or is it because he dragged his body to seek refuge and insulted the reputation of the Hou Mansion?
Pei Jiyan bowed his head and stood up, his eyes twinkled slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up with a touch of sarcasm.

……

In the main hall, Mrs. Qi Nanhou was sitting at the head, dressed in plain clothes, her eyes were reddish as if she had just cried. Seeing Steward Qi leading someone in, she walked over immediately.

Mrs. Qinanhou took a look at the things on the tray. Although they were broken, they could indeed be seen as things from Ru's Courtyard.

After all, there are not many porcelain plates with peach patterns like this in Yanjiao City. She planned to keep them for herself, but Rushi cut them off.

Hehe, but if it wasn't for this dish, Ru Shi wouldn't be so angry and conceived. It really relieved her worry. Thinking of this, she asked the boy kneeling on the ground, "Who were you last night?" Did you see Master Biao throwing these things into the well with your own eyes?"

Yu Qingnian immediately replied: "Yes, I got up last night and saw with my own eyes that Young Master Biao went to the back kitchen and poured things into the dry well. I didn't think much about it at first, but this morning when I heard that something happened in Huarong Garden , I felt something was wrong, so I reported it to Steward Qi."

After listening, Mrs. Qinanhou turned her head and looked at Pei Jiyan who had kept her head down.

"Jiyan! How could you be so confused? Even if your food was not to your taste, you shouldn't have gone to the kitchen of Huarong Garden to steal. You even took away Rushi's favorite peach pattern plate. Do you know that because of your fault, Rushi I was so angry that I had a miscarriage last night!"

Pei Jiyan looked up, obviously suppressing his joy, but pretending to be sad, the eldest aunt who made the conclusion for him, replied in a low voice.

"That's what my aunt taught me."

Mrs. Qi Nanhou immediately recognized him when she saw him, and she was even more satisfied. She waved her hand and said to the steward: "Steward Qi, take two maidservants and go to the Plum and Bamboo Garden to ask the old matriarch, and tell the people in Rushi's kitchen found it."

Butler Qi bent down to answer, and immediately took the man away.

Pei Jiyan and others walked away before opening his mouth again: "Auntie, if grandma comes over later, what should Jiyan say?"

Mrs. Qinanhou was stunned by this question, and then she curled her lips and said sarcastically: "Didn't Ji Yan admit it just now? Why, are you trying to quibble now? But this person has all the evidence, not even my aunt. It's good to favor you."

Hearing her mention the physical evidence, Pei Jiyan confirmed his previous guess, clenched his hands in his sleeves, raised his head and said, "Jiyan just doesn't want to tarnish my aunt's reputation because of her own fault."
