The Virtuous Wife

Chapter 64

"Master, Miss. What are you doing? I am the housekeeper of Miss's courtyard. Why did you tie me up?" Aunt Peng reacted quickly and asked in a ignorant manner.

"Mrs. Peng, do you really think we know nothing? Who is the master behind you? And why do you want to hide beside Jingwei and use Jingwei? You'd better tell the truth, otherwise, hum! This master will make you want to live or die!" Su Qing said with a cold face.

"It's unfair! Master, I am just a woman. How can it be what you said? Master, please spare me. I know that you and Miss don't like Miss, but you can't wrong me like this and put a smear on Miss's head!" Aunt Peng cried out in grievances, as if she was afraid that others couldn't hear it.

Jingyi smiled indifferently, and her bright eyes were like a bright lamp in this dim room, shining brightly and making people dare not look directly at her. "Madam Peng, you don't have to go to such great lengths. The courtyard has been cleared out long ago. No matter how much you shout, no one can hear you."

Madam Peng was stunned and looked at the second young lady whom she never took seriously. For some reason, she felt that Su Jingyi exuded an extremely depressing atmosphere. How could a seven-year-old child have such a strong aura?

Even though Madam Peng was knowledgeable, she couldn't help but shudder, "Second young lady, I don't know what I did wrong, but I was tied up?"

"You don't know what you did wrong? Okay, I'll tell you. Listen carefully and see if I missed anything?" Jingyi said, stood up, slowly walked to her side, and after standing still, looked straight into Madam Peng's eyes.

Aunt Peng's heart trembled. Her figure was clearly reflected in her clear eyes. Aunt Peng couldn't help but feel a little nervous. Why was the second lady's eyes so sharp? Under her gaze, she felt that all her weaknesses had nowhere to escape. In front of her, she felt like she was stripped n***d, and everything was exposed.

Jingyi looked at Aunt Peng's expression with satisfaction and said softly: "Peng was originally from Suzhou. Later, her family fell into decline and she wandered to the capital. She took refuge with her sister who worked in the Huguogong Mansion. She found a job in the Huguogong Mansion. Three years later, she was framed for stealing food from the mansion and was beaten thirty boards by the wife of the prince and expelled from the Huguogong Mansion. Later, she has been running a small teahouse for a living. A year ago, you met Bai, Jingwei's biological mother. Am I right?"

Jingyi was staring at Aunt Peng's face when she said these words. All the changes in Aunt Peng's facial expressions fell into her eyes. Aunt Peng obviously didn't expect Jingyi to know everything about her. She was a little surprised, but more confused.

Jingyi was very satisfied with what she saw. Obviously, this had a certain shocking effect on Aunt Peng.

Not only Aunt Peng was a little confused, but even Su Qing didn't understand how Jingyi knew all this? However, a seven-year-old child was so meticulous in her thoughts, and spoke and acted like an adult, even more thoughtful and detailed than her mother!

Jingyi turned around and stopped looking at Aunt Peng, but turned her back to her and said, "You took advantage of Bai's jealousy and gave her advice. My mother's serious illness was also your idea, right?"

Aunt Peng trembled. She didn't expect that these secret things could be hidden from the old lady and Gu, but not from this seven-year-old girl!

"What is the second young lady talking about? This old servant doesn't understand." Aunt Peng lowered her head and didn't dare to look into Jingyi's eyes again.

Jingyi was not in a hurry and chuckled, "Don't you understand? It doesn't matter. I will naturally make you understand. You used all means to please Bai Shi. In Bai Shi's view, you did all this for her consideration and for the future of her and her children. She never thought that you were just using her. My mother was born in a general's mansion, and her family background is much better than that of Bai Shi. So you tried to take my mother's life so that Bai Shi could be promoted! Am I right?"

"Second Miss's words are unreasonable. What is the status of the master? He is the Marquis of Pingnan. How could his wife be someone of low birth like Bai Shi? Second Miss's words are obviously unreasonable." Aunt Peng replied.

Jingyi turned to look at her and smiled, "Yes, based on her background alone, it is impossible, but she is the old lady's niece, and she gave birth to a son and a daughter for my father. With these two factors, my father's chance of making her his wife is probably 70%. In addition, my father has no other concubines except Bai. Everyone in the capital knows that my father loves my mother deeply. If my mother dies one day, my father will never remarry, and how can such a large mansion be left unattended? So it is best to make a concubine his wife." Hearing this, Su Qing and Aunt Peng were already stunned, and they looked at Jingyi with shock! Especially Su Qing, he always knew that his sister was extremely smart, but he didn't expect that she could connect the whole thing through some details? How could a seven-year-old child have such thoughts and brains? And Aunt Peng was already shocked and didn't know what to say. She was right, she did plan it this way. There is also the second half. Did the second young lady guess it? No, such a confidential matter, even Gu Shi didn't know, how could she know it?

Aunt Peng was still hoping for luck, but Jing Yi's next words shattered her only remaining hope.

"Do you really want me to continue? Do you think I don't know that you are planning to take my mother's bracelet?" Jing Yi's plain voice floated in the dim room. Aunt Peng's inner defense line was completely defeated by Jing Yi. She collapsed on the ground, staring at Jing Yi with incredible and puzzled eyes!

Jing Yi saw her current performance and knew that her psychological defense line had collapsed by half.

Jingyi sat back in her seat and stopped talking. Instead, she picked up the teacup on the table and sipped gently.

Su Qing frowned. From Aunt Peng's expression, he knew that what his sister said was true. She colluded with Bai to murder his mother's life first, and then coveted his mother's things. Such a b***h is really hateful!

Su Qing became more and more angry as he thought about it. He stood up and strode to Aunt Peng. He stepped forward and kicked her in the back. Aunt Peng was kicked hard. As soon as she turned over, Su Qing stepped on her chest and kicked hard.

With a "puff" sound, Aunt Peng spit out a large mouthful of blood and lay crooked on the ground.

Su Qing was still not satisfied and wanted to kick her twice more. When he lifted his foot into the air, he heard a clear and beautiful voice: "Brother, if she is kicked to death, what's the point of catching her?"

Su Qing's foot stopped in the air, he looked at Jingyi, then angrily looked at Aunt Peng, snorted, put down his foot, and sat back in his original position.

Su Qing said hatefully: "Hmph! This old b***h! Sister, do you have a way to make her tell the truth?"

"No hurry! Wait a little longer, maybe we can know what we want to know without asking her."

Su Qing's eyes flashed with a strange light, thinking of Siqin he saw that day. It seems that his sister has indeed laid a back-up plan.

Aunt Peng sneered, obviously thinking that these two people were deliberately making a mystery. She didn't believe that these two little ghosts could find out the details of the young master! As long as they couldn't find out the young master, then she would be safe. These two children just tied her up to scare her, and they would never really kill her or t*****e her. Thinking of this, Aunt Peng felt relieved, and her expression showed some signs of relaxation.

After about a cup of tea, Jingyi looked outside, put down the teacup, and looked at Aunt Peng: "I'll ask you one last time, are you willing to tell me who is behind you? Maybe my brother and I can let you go for the sake of your master."

Aunt Peng pleaded: "Second Miss, I really don't know what you are talking about? The eldest lady must be waiting for me to go back and serve her. You should let me go." Although she looked respectful, she sneered in her heart, humph! If you want to cheat me, you have to see if you have the weight!

Jingyi waited for her to finish, then shook her head and said, "I gave you a chance, but you didn't know how to cherish it. You even wanted to use Jingwei to pressure me! She's just a slave. What if I killed her? Can I turn the world upside down? Don't forget, you are still a slave in my Pingnan Marquis Mansion, and your indenture is still in the mansion. Since you want to die, I will naturally fulfill your wish!" After that, she said softly to the outside, "Come in." The door was opened, and it was Siqin who came in.
