The subtle fragrance of cotton needles

"This..." The girl was choked and didn't know what to say.

There is no need to say more about this matter. No matter what Xia Jianxiang says or how she defends herself, she cannot prove that this is Li Qianxuan's maid. As long as Xia Jianxiang cannot produce evidence, this matter can only be regarded as a frame-up by Xia Jianxiang.

"Madam, this girl has already admitted with her own mouth that she is Li Qianxuan's woman. Do you need to ask again?" Xia Jianxiang knew that there was no way to directly prove that this girl was Li Qianxuan's woman, so she could only convict her directly in a bad mood.

No matter how good-tempered Mrs. Tu was, she couldn't stand Xia Jianxiang's arrogance. "Fifth girl, why are you so anxious? Even if this girl is not from Li Qianxuan, she is not from your courtyard. Why are you so anxious?"

Xia Jianxiang was embarrassed, but still unconvinced: "Even if she is not Li Qianxuan's, she still came to my yard to steal things. Madam, you can't let her go just because she is not Li Qianxuan's."

"Fifth sister, is she making trouble because she stole things from your yard, or because she said she belongs to Li Qianxuan?" Xia Yanxiang said indifferently.

Xia Jianxiang is always like this, doing some brainless things, but every time she manages to be caught by someone, so she can only endure it. In her previous life, Xia Pinxiang had to clean up so many messes for her, and now she doesn't want to take care of it anymore.

"Me!" Xia Jianxiang's thoughts were exposed by Xia Yanxiang, and she couldn't hold back her expression.

Seeing this, Xia Pinxiang tried to smooth things over, "Third sister, what you said is really a bit unreasonable. Fifth sister is naturally angry because she found out that this girl was stealing, and this girl admitted that she was Li Qianxuan's person, so Fifth sister let it go!"

"Isn't it possible to find out where she is from? Fifth sister and second sister are so naive to convict her of Li Qianxuan's country based on her one-sided statement!" Xia Yanxiang's face showed some contempt, and Xia Pinxiang's words were really brainless.

Xia Pinxiang was almost unable to hold back her anger after being mocked by Xia Yanxiang. Fortunately, the Second Auntie held her back and said, "Madam, these two maids of mine have lived in the boudoir for a long time and have little contact with these things. It is normal for them to be naive. The Third Maid's words are a bit harsh."

After a few words, the second aunt turned the conversation to Xia Yanxiang.

Oh, it's really ridiculous. How can a girl in the boudoir be innocent? Not to mention Xia Pinxiang, who is about to marry into Prince Yuan's palace. What's the point of talking about innocence with her here?

Even if Mrs. Tu was calm, Second Aunt's words were already targeting Xia Yanxiang, so Mrs. Tu would never let it go: "Harsh? Although Yan'er's words were a bit blunt, they were not without reason. We are all girls in the boudoir, who can say that we are naive? Moreover, Pinxiang is about to marry into Prince Yuan's Mansion. If people knew that the daughter of our Shangshu Mansion was ignorant of the world, I'm afraid she would be looked down upon when she arrived at Prince Yuan's Mansion, right?"

"You!" Xia Pinxiang was really mad at Xia Yanxiang and her daughter.

"Madam is right. I will definitely raise the two children well when I go back." The Second Aunt was not as impatient as Xia Pinxiang and Xia Jianxiang. Instead, she obediently followed Tu's words and agreed.

After saying this, the second aunt was about to leave with Xia Pinxiang and Xia Jianxiang.

"Wait a minute." The Second Aunt was best at evading the issue. Right now she wanted to avoid the main point of the matter and turn the focus to the upbringing of Xia Pinxiang and her sister. Tu was not so easily fooled.

"The matter is not over yet, don't worry, Second Aunt." The First Aunt didn't say anything, just waiting for the Second Aunt to show her hand.

The eldest aunt never interfered in the affairs between the second aunt and Mrs. Tu, but once her children were involved, she would not let it go easily.

"The fifth girl swore that the person was Li Qianxuan's, but in the end she didn't make anything clear. Isn't that inappropriate?"

Xia Jianxiang knew that if she continued to ask, she would definitely end up causing trouble for Xia Qianxiang. Besides, she was the one who planned this matter, so she couldn't get any information out of her. Thinking of this, Xia Jianxiang became angry and stepped forward with a frown and kicked the girl: "Why don't you tell the truth?!"

Second Auntie pulled Xia Jianxiang and said, "Why did you have to make such a move?"

"Fifth sister, you are the master. Wouldn't it be shameful for you to touch her?" Even Xia Pinxiang couldn't stand Xia Jianxiang's temperament of being violent at every turn. It was really embarrassing.

Although the girl was kicked by Xia Jianxiang, she didn't dare to say a word and could only fall aside with a sad face.

"How about this, He Luo, go get the servant list from the warehouse and see which courtyard she is from." Tu said slowly.

This is the simplest and most direct method, and of course the most effective method. For any personnel transfer, the list in Tu's hands will be adjusted, and there will be no secret replacement.

"By the way, what's your name?" After Tu delivered a powerful blow, he continued to ask the girl calmly.

"My name is Haiyu." Haiyu said tremblingly.

He Luo quickly went to the storeroom to get the list.

When Xia Jianxiang heard what Tu said, she immediately panicked.

Fortunately, the second aunt remained calm and quickly grabbed Xia Jianxiang's hand. Even if it was found out that Haiyu was not Li Qianxuan's person, it could be said that Haiyu herself wanted to frame Xia Qianxiang, and Xia Jianxiang was completely misled. Anyway, there was no evidence to say that it was Xia Jianxiang who instructed her to do so.

He Luo quickly brought the list and handed it to Tu.

Tu flipped through the pages slowly and leisurely.

Originally, she only needed to look at the list of Li Qianxuan's servants, but for some reason, Tu had to flip through them page by page.

The rustling sound of book pages seemed to be tickling Xia Jianxiang's heart. Even though Xia Jianxiang knew that there would be no consequences if the matter was exposed, she was still very nervous.

"Haiyu? Wen Pinxuan's maid who is responsible for cleaning the yard." The final word, and it was a loud hammer.

Haiyu is not only not from Li Qianxuan, but also from Xia Pinxiangyuan.

Xia Pinxiang was stunned. She didn't remember at all that Haiyu was from her yard.

Of course, Xia Pinxiang never bothered to care about servants, let alone someone like Haiyu who was just cleaning the yard at her place and might never have entered the house, so she had no impression of her at all.

Xia Pinxiang opened her eyes wide and looked straight at Xia Jianxiang. This Xia Jianxiang was really incapable of accomplishing anything and always caused trouble. Why did she have to look for someone in her yard?

Xia Jianxiang was so panicked that before Tu could continue to ask, she took the initiative to ask, "Didn't you say you were Li Qianxuan's man? Did you say that on purpose to frame me and my second sister?"

It was the first time that Xia Jianxiang reacted so quickly and caught Haiyu's loophole.

"Fifth Miss?!" Haiyu didn't expect that Xia Jianxiang would put the blame on her so quickly, but she had no choice. She was just a servant, and a servant who had never been looked after by her real master. Xia Pinxiang would definitely not save her.

Xia Yanxiang didn't say anything, just watched from the side. No matter what, this matter would not be blamed on Xia Qianxiang. It all depended on what choice Xia Jianxiang and Xia Pinxiang would make.

Everyone present could see what Xia Jianxiang meant, but no one spoke.
