Thinking of this, Lao Zhen couldn't wait to prove Wang Keer's crime.
She scolded angrily: "You are a cheap maid, you have something in your heart, that's why you don't dare to let people search you. If you don't tell the truth honestly, then don't blame our Marquis Mansion for ruthlessly sending you to the official."
Wang Keer was so frightened by Lao Zhen's harsh words that she trembled all over.
"My slave is unjust. The Marquis's mansion is so big and you want to check my room. This is clearly an insult to my slave. How can I behave like a human being in the future?"
Jin Yue said: "I believe it is impossible for my maid to commit theft. Without evidence, you can't even think of relying on her."
Third Aunt Lin helped Lao Zhen and said, "Miss, you would rather trust outsiders than your own relatives. This is really chilling!"
Jin Yue glanced at the so-called third aunt. This was Zhang who was imprisoned in the ancestral hall, so it was her turn to jump out and help.
I really don’t know if Third Uncle will regret accepting his enemy as his mother in the future if he finds out that his biological mother was killed by Lao Zhen.
"Third Aunt's words are serious. It's not that my niece doesn't trust her relatives. It's just that there is a saying that if there is no evidence to catch a thief and take the stolen goods, why bother unjustly accusing someone."
Qin's mother immediately jumped out and said: "Miss, the stolen goods are in the room where the mother and daughter live. Just go in and search and the truth will be revealed."
Jin Yue's face turned cold: "You say so? Then if someone tells me that you stole valuables from the Hou Mansion, can I also lead people to search your room?"
Mother Qin was extremely angry: "Miss, how can you be unreasonable?"
Since Lao Zhen had concluded that Wang Keer had taken something, he would not let go of this opportunity.
As long as Wang Keer is found guilty, Jin Yue will be accused of being indifferent to right and wrong, and she will no longer be able to get involved in the power of the family.
"It really pains me that the eldest lady must protect this thief slave. Since we can't find out who Chou Yin is, how about searching all the servants in the house?"
After speaking, he was afraid that Jin Yue would not be happy, so he added: "This is not an insult to her. If you still don't agree, you are guilty."
Jin Yue deliberately made things worse, waiting for Lao Zhen's words.
"Can."
Wang Keer immediately looked anxious and said, "Miss, you can't search, you can't!"
Lao Zhen glanced at her, sneered coldly, and immediately ordered: "Come here, search them one by one."
Wang Tong, the chief steward of the inner courtyard, received the order and immediately led a furious search.
After a stick of incense, the room where Wang Keer lived was searched, but the so-called top-quality blood swallow was not found.
Lao Zhen's face became more and more ugly, and she always felt that something was wrong.
Mrs. Hou looked at the messy room and frowned: "You might as well dig three feet into the ground. We have searched it eight times. If there was such a thing, it would have been found long ago."
Jin Yue looked at Lao Zhen and said, "Look, I will tell you that it is impossible for my girl to do such a thing. You have wronged her."
Qin's mother looked ugly and said loudly: "Impossible."
Jin Yue raised her eyebrows: "You must have seen it wrong. Maybe someone else stole it."
The old Marquis immediately said: "Substitute someone else to search."
Then, the group followed Wang Tong and looked through the servants' rooms one by one.
Until he found Sister Liu's room, Jin Yue took a look at Ding Dashan's wife among the servants.
Just listen to the sound of crashing, and things in the room were turned around in a mess.
"What is this?" A servant opened a red box.
Jin Yue said: "Bring it here and take a look."
"yes."
When the box was opened, it was revealed that it was the extracted tea essence.
The moment the box was opened, Sister-in-law Liu was completely panicked. This was not hers.
"My slave did not steal the best blood swallow. Miss, someone must have framed the fault on my slave."
She thought for a moment, then pointed to Ding Dashan's wife and said, "It must be Mother Ding. Mother Ding came to talk to me this morning."
Ding Dashan's daughter-in-law is obese. She is very stocky and looks honest.
As soon as she heard Sister-in-law Liu's identification, she immediately stood up and said: "Sister-in-law Liu, when I talked to you today, you followed me the whole time. How dare you accuse me unjustly."
"It's not a blood bird's nest."
Sister-in-law Liu breathed a sigh of relief when she heard it wasn't blood bird's nest: "I was scared to death. It turns out it's not. It's okay if it's not."
Jin Yuepi smiled but said: "Sister-in-law Liu, what are you guilty of?"
"This slave has no guilty conscience."
"If you have no guilty conscience, then please explain the function of this tea essence."
When Sister-in-law Liu heard this, her heart skipped a beat again: "What, tea essence."
She lowered her head, obviously feeling guilty, but she was also wondering how could tea essence appear?
Jin Yue threw the box on the ground, and the tea essence particles instantly rolled to the ground: "See for yourself, what are you doing with so much tea essence?"
Sister-in-law Liu felt guilty and immediately retorted: "This is not a slave."
Lao Zhen came to his senses. It seemed that he had fallen into the trap of Jin Yue, that little bitch.
Stealing the blood bird's nest is an introduction, and the key lies in the tea essence.
"What we are here to search for is the best blood swallow. The tea essence and tea essence have nothing to do with this matter. Let's change places."
Lao Zhen tried to sneak through and prepared to leave with others.
"Stop." Jin Yue shouted: "Does this young lady agree that you can leave?"
The momentum all over his body suddenly increased, giving everyone an unprecedented sense of oppression.
"Come here, arrest Sister-in-law Liu for me."
The guards in the backyard looked at me and I looked at you, but no one made a move.
Jin Yue looked at everyone with a sneer: "The Hou Mansion does not keep useless slaves. Since I can't control you, then sell them all to Yazi and replace them with another group of people."
After saying that, she whipped Wang Tong: "If you don't do anything yet, do you want me to arrest him personally?"
Wang Tong grimaced in pain, but Jin Yue had no intention of letting him go, and whipped him several times again.
This move acted as a deterrent. One of the clever servants immediately called on several people he had good relations with and arrested Sister-in-law Liu.
Jin Yue looked at the brave young man and cast an appreciative look.
Asked: "What is your name?"
"Miss Qi, my name is Liu Zi."
Jin Yue nodded: "From today on, you will be the chief steward of the inner courtyard of the Marquis Mansion. I like obedient people, do you understand?"
Liu Zi immediately knelt down and kowtowed: "As long as the young lady orders, I am willing to do everything for the young lady."
Wang Tong looked at Jin Yue and Liu Zi angrily, while Lao Zhen's face was livid with anger.
"Girl Yue, do you have a problem with me by doing this?"
Jin Yue sneered: "Old Madam Zhen is overly worried. When her granddaughter first takes charge of the family, she will naturally have to deal with some people to establish her authority."
She deliberately made people angry and said clearly: "Of course, I'll treat the disobedient ones first. My granddaughter won't realize that she's wrong."
