Shen Zhixue instantly understood what Chu Yue meant.
Qiushi was the one who noticed something strange about the beauty cream and brought it up. She couldn't be a traitor.
Among the other three, the one who dared not put the nourishing cream on his face was the one who betrayed Hongyan Pavilion.
When Chunhua heard that she wanted to test the beauty cream, she hurriedly stepped forward and picked up a box, opened it, picked a little with her fingernails and applied it to her face, looking intoxicated.
Qiushi was the second one to step forward. She knew that Chu Yue wanted to test them, so she cooperated without changing her expression.
The third one to step forward was Siyu. The little girl looked younger than Chunhua, with a bit of shyness on her face.
She stepped forward and took a box of beauty cream and went to use it.
Only the one named Xiuyan stood there, looking hesitant.
Chu Yue saw her expression and pursed her lips towards the beauty cream on the coffee table.
"Don't you need it?"
Xiuyan bit her lip.
"Can I not use it?"
Shen Zhixue raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Why don't you use it? Could it be that this beauty cream can ruin your face?"
"I..." Xiuyan hesitated, then bit her lip and bravely said, "My boss, there is something that I have thought about and I must explain to you."
Shen Zhixue nodded.
"you say."
She wanted to see if she had anything else to argue with.
Xiuyan glanced in Siyu's direction.
"Yesterday afternoon, there were few people in the shop. I saw Siyu going to the warehouse. I wanted to go up and say hello and ask her what she was doing, but I saw her secretly holding a bottle and standing in the store where Yanshuang was stocked. There was a lot of fussing in front of the shelves, and I was confused at the time, but I was afraid that she would knock it down, so I kept silent."
Siyu on the side heard Xiuyan's words and her heart tightened, then she heard Xiuyan continue to speak.
"I saw Sister Qiushi hurriedly carrying the beauty cream to my employer's house in the morning, and I thought that maybe what she put there was not a good thing." She looked at the boxes of beauty cream on the coffee table, "The slave family will need it soon. I'm getting married, and I really don't dare to use it until I understand what Siyu put in the beauty cream, and I hope my employer will understand."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chunhua, who was originally intoxicated, quickly raised his sleeves and wiped it on his face, and asked with a little cry, "Siyu, what did you put in it? It won't really hurt your face. Alright?"
Chu Yue looked at her and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, I've already shaved off the problematic part, it won't hurt your face."
Chunhua firmly believed in Chu Yue's words, and she patted her chest with fear on her face.
"That's good, that's good!"
Dr. Chu is a goddess doctor. She said that there is no problem with the beauty cream, so it must be safe to use.
Chu Yue stood up and looked directly at Siyu.
"So, what did you mix into the beauty cream yesterday?"
Siyu held the beauty cream in her hands tightly with both hands.
"I...I don't know, I don't know anything."
Shen Zhixue was a little surprised. When she saw that Xiuyan didn't use any skin care cream, she thought she was the traitor, but she didn't expect such a big turn.
There was heavy disappointment on her face.
"Siyu, I consider myself to be very kind to you. Before, you took your brother to beg on the street. I saw that you were pitiful, so I gave you food and took you to work in Hongyan Pavilion so that you could support your family. You Is this how you repay me?"
After Siyu heard this, she knelt down in front of Shen Zhixue with a guilty look on her face.
"The slave family knows their fault!" she cried, "the slave family's grandmother is sick, and the family doesn't have that much money to treat her, so she was deceived into doing something wrong. I hope my employer can be more lenient and give the slave family another chance. I promise that I will never do anything to disgrace my master again!"
After she finished speaking, she kept kowtowing to Shen Zhixue.
Shen Zhixue just looked at her coldly, without any sympathy on her face.
"Betrayal, once is enough!"
After hearing this, Siyu fell to the ground, her face full of despair.
Without the job of Hongyan Pavilion, the family would not be able to survive for long just relying on the three melons and two dates given by Miss Guan.
Chu Yue looked at her.
"Who ordered you to do it? Guan Linglong? Or Shen Zhixia?"
Siyu shook her head and cried.
"You can't say anything. If you say anything, you will be beaten to death."
Chu Yue immediately said angrily, "Now that you have mixed poison into my beauty cream, I will beat you to death and even the Yamen will have nothing to say!"
Siyu was frightened by Chu Yue's angry look.
Even Shen Zhixue was shocked. In her impression, Chu Yue had always been gentle, intelligent, and good at talking. This was the first time she had seen her lose her temper.
Siyu shrank her neck, hurriedly waved her hands and said, "No! It's not poison. Miss Guan said that these juices won't do much harm. At most, you will blush for a while and you'll be fine. It won't ruin your face or disfigure your face. Otherwise, the slave family wouldn't dare to use these juices." Mix the juice in."
There was a hint of understanding in Shen Zhixue's eyes.
"It is indeed Guan Linglong!"
"You believe what Guan Linglong said?" Chu Yue looked at her, "A small amount of oleander juice can cause rubella on the skin, with consequences comparable to disfigurement. If used excessively, it can even lead to death. You actually said it is not poisonous? "
When Siyu heard this, her face was filled with astonishment.
She had no idea that the juice she mixed into the beauty cream was oleander juice, nor did she know that the juice could be so toxic.
Siyu's face was filled with grievances.
"But I really don't understand anything."
"If you don't understand, that's not the reason why you betrayed Hongyan Pavilion and me. This is the most fundamental issue of principle! You were bribed so easily, which shows that your principles are not worth mentioning in the face of interests." Shen Zhixue's face With anger, "Siyu, you have betrayed my trust in you. From today on, you don't have to come to Hongyan Pavilion."
Siyu hurriedly stepped forward and hugged Shen Zhixue's thigh to beg for mercy.
"My boss, please give me another chance. I promise I won't do it again."
Shen Zhixue winked in the direction of Qiushi, and saw Qiushi calling the boy to come forward and pull Siyu out.
Chu Yue stood upstairs, looking at Siyu who was thrown out of Hongyan Building by the servant.
"Sister Shen just let her go like this?"
Shen Zhixue stood beside her and said helplessly, "She has a young brother and an old and frail grandmother. The three of them depend on each other. If I really kill her or send her to prison, she How can my grandmother and brother survive?"
"Sister Shen means well. I hope she can be worthy of your tolerance."
After all, she was not one of her own, and Chu Yue was not sure how to deal with Siyu.
After she finished speaking, she looked towards the tea shop where Lu Xinghe was. From here, she could just see Lu Xinghe's figure on the attic of the tea shop, but there was a woman sitting opposite him. If she hadn't mistaken her, she should be Guan Linglong.
She frowned slightly.
"She is really haunted!"
Guan Linglong opposite seemed to have noticed Chu Yue's gaze, and when she looked over, her eyes were full of pride.
