482, two defeats

"Miss, how did you know that the second wife withdrew the eighth lady's dowry?" Yuzhu couldn't help asking. How could Xu Shu have only been in the Zheng family for a few days, how could she even know such a private matter?

"It is not uncommon for the legitimate mother to deduct the dowry of a concubine's daughter, so why should I deliberately inquire?" Just like when I was in the Xu family, whoever married a concubine's daughter would not deduct any legitimate mother from it? Even if she married such a tall man, even if she was a dull wife, she would have gained a lot of benefits from Xu Yan's dowry.

"Then why are you sure Miss Eighth will be willing to cooperate with Bai Shuang?" Before going to find Miss Eighth, Yinzhi was always nervous, afraid that Miss Eighth would reject her, but after she expressed her intention, Miss Eighth only thought for a moment and agreed immediately.

"I can't help but whether I want to do so! Bai Shuang has gone to the room and said something she shouldn't say, and Bai Shuang is her maid. She can't get out of the trouble of Bai Shuang. She can't stay out of the matter! Instead of leaving Bai Shuang alone and helpless, it would be better for the two of them to work together to make the fake show true, so that she can protect herself! As for Yinzhi asking her to mention her dowry, I just wanted to tell her that it would be profitable to do so. She can make money, and some people can't sit still..."

Yinzhi understood, "Miss refers to the second wife?"

"It is a shameful thing to deduct the dowry of a concubine's daughter after all. Even if everyone knows it in private, no one wants to be taken to the public! Jiang Xue is from the fourth room, and even if she dies, it will be the fourth room. What is the second lady going to join in? I see that Aunt Hu is instigated by the second lady to make trouble, in order to embarrass her mother. However, the second lady is so embarrassed that the second lady is so ugly that the old lady is afraid that the old lady will be unhappy. When the eighth lady proposes the dowry at this time, the old lady will naturally not look to the second lady again.

It was also a lesson for her to deduct the dowry of a concubine's daughter! The second lady was obviously unwilling to lose face. To stop this, the only way to make Miss Eight lose face will be to lose face. The old lady will naturally no longer care about the dowry. If Miss Eight wants Miss Eight to lose face, the fastest way is to prove that Bai Shuang is lying. Miss Eight who confirmed Bai Shuang's lies will naturally break the trust of the old lady! But the smart eighth lady will definitely leave room for herself, and the only ones who are unlucky will be Bai Shuang and Mrs. Zheng Er!"

After a bend, he let Mrs. Zheng Er unknowingly let her go around and go.

Yinzhi said in great admiration, "I was curious before why the lady asked me to find Miss Eighth. What does this matter have to do with Miss Eighth? It turns out that I only found Miss Eighth to stimulate the second lady!"

"Who said it has nothing to do with her!" Xu Shu smiled faintly, revealing the coldness of Yanliang who saw through the world. "I asked you to find her to have two possibilities of doubt! One is that she didn't know about Jiangxue's affairs, and the other is that she actually knew how Jiangxue died! If she was not aware of Jiangxue's death, then when you came to the door, she would first think of it to abandon Bai Shuang to protect herself! But Bai Shuang has not come out yet, so it is only a second possibility. She knew that Bai Shuang had found Jiangxue, and out of some selfishness, either to control Bai Shuang or to threaten Mrs. Zheng Er, and it is unwilling to tell this matter out of some selfishness! In fact, it is not difficult to guess this. How can a maid who embroidered a dowry with the master who is waiting to marry all day long have time to meet another maid? Besides looking for it specifically, can it be for other reasons?"

Yinzhi was silent. It turned out that Miss Zheng Ba, who had always been inconspicuous in the Zheng family, had such exquisite thoughts behind her back. She hadn't seen it for so many years. If Xu Shu had not pointed it out, she wouldn't have thought of it.

"Okay, don't mention this matter, it's all over!"

Yuzhu looked at the bright lights in the upper room not far away and sighed, "I really want to know how Mrs. Zheng Er is going to confront Bai Shuang!" Yuzhu heard Bai Shuang say in person that she was instructed by Mrs. Zheng Er to harm Jiangxue. Two people with ulterior motives are so lively!

"What's so good about dog biting a dog?" After eavesdropping on Mrs. Zheng Er's vulgar words that Bai Shuang said after slandering Mr. Zheng Er, Xu Shu knew that the current main room was definitely filled with all kinds of unpleasant words!

Yinzhi chuckled, "No! Bai Shuang killed Jiang Xue, but she had no guilt. Even if she burned paper money, she was just to comfort herself! She was caught by the lady and tried to deny it. Now she has told the lie to the old lady. If Mrs. Zheng is targeting her, she will deny it if she gets out. Unfortunately, she can't escape from the last one! I heard that the lady taught Bai Shuang to push this matter to the second master, and I thought the lady was going to help her escape!"

"Bai Shuang must have thought so, thinking she could escape! She thought beautifully!" Yuzhu felt relieved, "It's time!"

"I'm not that ignorant!" Xu Shu hummed lightly, "If you do something wrong, you should be punished!"

The door of the main room opened. Mrs. Zheng frowned and came out. After walking two steps, she found Xu Shu. She hurriedly walked a few steps in front of Xu Shu and said in surprise, "Xiao Jiu? Why are you here?"

"Come and pick up your mother back!"

Mrs. Zheng Si touched Xu Shuqin's cold hand and blamed her slightly, "Why did you wait for so long and don't let me inform you? Look at her hands are as cold as ice lumps!"

"I haven't waited for a long time!" Xu Shu retracted her hand back into her sleeve and warmed her.

Mrs. Zheng Si didn't believe it, "Don't fool me, you didn't go back since you came out to digest food, right? That's not long!"

Yinzhi interrupted, "I haven't waited for a long time, Miss Jiu and Bai Shuang came together!"

"Bai Shuang?" Mrs. Zheng Si suddenly realized something, "You asked Bai Shuang to come?"

Xu Shu nodded and admitted, "I was afraid of running into someone, so I took a secluded road in the garden. I didn't want to encounter Bai Shuang to burn paper money for Jiang Xue... I knew that Jiang Xue was fooled by Bai Shuang by her second aunt, and thought that you were called to the room for your mother. Xu was so angry that she took the initiative to coerce Bai Shuang!"

"Sure enough..." Mrs. Zheng Si murmured, "I knew this was not that simple! I said that Bai Shuang did not value friendship so much. She would stand up for Jiang Xue who had no friendship. It turned out that you had caught the pain and had to come. Now my doubts have been completely solved!"

Mrs. Zheng Si gave out and smiled and said to Xu Shu, "Do you know what happened inside just now?"

Xu Shu lowered her head and chuckled, "Both losers?"

Mrs. Zheng Si was surprised for a moment and understood everything, "You also called Sister Xia?"

Xu Shu nodded.
