Fractious Legitimate Daughter - C161

“Second Miss, you better not be sad. Remember the madame’s order, after finding out the truth, even if it means returning justice to the Second Miss, you still have to return the justice to the young miss!”

In the following days, although she did not need to go to school, Xie Wanqing was extremely busy. She took the Concubine Fang and the servant girls in Xie Wanyun’s room and interrogated them one by one.

Out of the two maids in the room, one of them saw that her master was grounded and she was dismissed. The other one could not see her master and heard that she had meditated in the buddhist hall with only the Mama Xin to accompany her and no one was protecting her now.

However, since Mama Xin was going to run towards two rooms, she would naturally be busy. On the second day, Xie Wanqing also dragged the servants over to ask one by one. At the same time, she also said that the Mama Zeng beside him had sent them to take care of Xie Wanyun.

Mama Xin was initially very busy, but when she saw that Xie Wanqing had thought through everything so thoroughly, she had saved herself a lot of things. Her heart also comforted, and her impression of Xie Wanqing became even better.

This was what Xie Wanqing wanted. Besides this, Mama Zeng could also be considered an aged Mama, she was extremely meticulous, as if she could perhaps find something by Xie Wanyun’s side.

“Mistress, the young miss has been getting more and more irritable these days, and she doesn’t eat much!” In the blink of an eye, Mama Zeng had already taken care of Xie Wanyun for two days, so she came over to report when she was free.

On the second day of the new year, it was supposed to be the busiest time outside, but how could Xie Wanyun not be irritable when she was trapped in the buddhist hall!

Because of the New Year, what Yue Xin helped to prepare was something that she could talk about in the morning, so Xie Wanqing was willing to wear.

But thinking about Xie Wanyun, in this buddhist hall, when it was supposed to be a day filled with big fish and big meat, she could only eat, so thinking about it now, it was reasonable for him to be irritable.

“Alright, you can leave now. Take good care of that one!” Mama Zeng agreed and then left. Xie Wanqing looked outside with a bit of confusion in her eyes.

“The young miss has obviously already interrogated them. As long as we report it to the madame, they would definitely suffer. What are you waiting for?”

Yue Xin said as she fiddled with the charcoal fire, causing it to warm up in the house. Xie Wanqing continued to eat her food and looked at Yue Xin, thinking to herself that she had raised this servant girl even more powerful.

It was true that their methods had always been this way. They had casually called a maid over to talk to the madame. What was even more laughable was that the madame had never doubted them.

But Xie Wanqing was not like that. Since it was really them doing it, then there must have been a flaw, teasing the young maid was their usual method, maybe they already had a way to solve it.

Xie Wanqing wanted to find evidence that they couldn’t refute. If that was the case, then the effort she had put into this period of time would not have been in vain!

“This is their method and not mine. Killing a snake requires 7 inches. I don’t want them to turn around and waste my time and effort these days!”

Xie Wanqing curled her lips, Yue Xin nodded her head in agreement: “Miss is still the most considerate one, but they are well-hidden, and even I can’t find anything by their side!”

Xie Wanqing thought for a while, and then sighed, there were already a few maids’ testimonies, and it could only prove that the rumors were coming from Xie Wanyun’s side, but it could be said that Xie Wanyun’s house maids were disobedient, and that she was being treated as an unkind person.

Xie Wanqing was really worried when she thought about this. Could it be that she really had no other choice, she could only be killed for nothing, but accepting her own fate was not Xie Wanqing’s style.

“Oh yeah, let me ask you to check the maids in their rooms one by one. Are there any other discoveries?” As long as he could find the first person to say that Xie Wanqing had something to do with Han Hao, then he would have somewhere to find out!

“Miss, this servant has already interrogated them, but everyone in this young miss’ room is extremely tight-lipped. Even if I know that the explanation came from their room, I wouldn’t be able to find anything!”

“This is also within my expectations!” Xie Wanqing drank a mouthful of tea, she could not tell if she was happy or angry.

“However, this servant has checked with the housekeeper. A few days ago, a maid was sent out of the young miss’ room. The reason was because she stole something, but this servant always felt that it was inappropriate!”

“When did this happen?”

“About two months ago!”

Xie Wanqing counted with her fingers. Two months ago, when she had just started spewing out rumors, it was naturally not appropriate to say that.

“Of course it’s not appropriate. At that time, the New Year is approaching, so we can talk about whatever mistakes the servants have. Even the madame is like that, why are they so impatient to give it away?”

“This servant thinks so too, but when I think about it again, the mansion hates stealing the most. If they say that they really lost something valuable, then that’s fine too. Miss, this is going to be difficult!”

Xie Wanqing praised Yue Xin as she glanced at him. Yue Xin’s considerations were becoming more and more thoughtful, causing him to feel even more at ease.

“Yue Xin, go out tomorrow and find the maid that left. You must get to the bottom of this.”

“Yes!” Young miss, County Prince Liang is here! ” Xie Wanqing turned to look out the window. Sure enough, the County Prince Liang had come.

Xie Wanqing hurriedly stood up. She had coincidentally walked in just at this time, and Zhao Yuqi was originally reading at the Shouxi School s. In these few days of vacation, he had been accompanying Xie Wanqing every day.

“Greetings County Prince Liang!”

“Wake up, we’ve already seen it so many times, and it’s still so foreign. Oh right, how’s the investigation going!”

Xie Wanqing asked while holding Xie Wanqing’s hand, as she knew that what Zhao Yuqi was talking about must be the previous messages and what happened during the New Year’s Eve meal.

However, Xie Wanqing knew Zhao Yuqi’s temperament. It had already been two days, and she still asked about it.

Zhao Yuqi, on the other hand, was a man, and had always been unrestrained and carefree. In his previous life, Xie Wanyun was the only one who hadn’t passed yet, and this was also how Zhao Yuqi’s temperament was.

The person who was in charge of large and small matters in the family was Xie Wanqing, and Zhao Yuqi never asked about these matters. That Liang Wang, he couldn’t be bothered to meddle in these petty matters.

Now that she mentioned it, it was obvious that she had already held Xie Wanqing in high regard as if she were a treasure. As Xie Wanqing looked at him, no matter how deep her emotions were, he would not hesitate to abandon him from today onwards.

When Xie Wanqing thought about it, she felt a bit of disgust, but her expression did not leak out. Listening to Zhao Yuqi’s culture, Xie Wanqing could only helplessly shake her head.

“It’s a mess. Although the maid has testified, I still feel that it’s not right. I should get more evidence.” As Xie Wanqing spoke, she slightly frowned, looking like she was extremely troubled.

How could Zhao Yuqi not feel pain? He lifted Xie Wanqing’s little face and said, “Did they really do it?”

“In all likelihood, one of them is my elder sister while the other one is an aunt who has the grace to conceive. Why would they treat her like that?” Xie Wanqing’s tears did not fall, but her eyes were already red.

County Prince Liang felt as though his heart had been cut by a knife. “If it was really them, this king will help you take responsibility. I will definitely not forgive them!”

Xie Wanqing had to wait for County Prince Liang’s words, even if she did not find any other evidence, they would not dare to have any more thoughts.

“Xianqing thanks the County Prince Liang, but she’s just sad. Why did they treat her like that …”

Xie Wanqing pitifully cried for a while, and the County Prince Liang also consoled him softly by her side. Only when the sky was about to turn dark did she leave.

Before long, it was time for dinner. Since it was New Year’s Eve, the madame liked to have a lively meal. Thus, the dinner was held in the main hall for the past few days.

Yue Xin waited for Xie Wanqing to change out of her tear-stained clothes, then they rushed towards the great hall together.
