Su's trembling voice made all the servants tremble with fear.

I just wish I had not had these eyes and ears, so that I could have escaped this bloody storm in the Hou Mansion.

Su quickly walked up to Mu Qiaoxi, looking very angry. She knelt down on the ground and kept reaching out to gather the fragments of the red porcelain bottles together. Her heartache and anger were visible to the naked eye.

Mu Qiaoxi smiled at this time, and the servants around him shuddered. Is the eldest lady crazy?

But she took out a handkerchief and put it in front of Su.

"Mistress, calm down and use this to serve it, but be careful not to hurt your hands."

But everyone saw it just now. Mu Qiaoxi clearly smashed the porcelain vase deliberately and had no intention of saving any face for the Su family.

Su Shi was already extremely angry.

"Come here, come here! The eldest lady is hysterical! Please arrest her."

But she never thought that Mu Qiaoxi returned to the chair, sat down calmly, looked at the Su family in front of her and said sternly, "Wang Wu, I am the eldest daughter of the Hou family, and can you servants easily pull me away?"

Hearing this, the servants who had just stepped forward became frightened and retreated to their original positions.

"I don't even think about it, what is the use of Hongxiu stealing such a big thing? And how did he steal it? Since it is the mistress's dowry, it is naturally the mistress's personal belongings. You didn't notice it when Hongxiu went in and out of the yard. You hid it all.

You only saw it inside the house?"

"Furthermore, does the mistress have any servants to prove that Hongxiu brought this vase to her room? Could it be that Hongxiu went to other courtyards when I was not at home? Of course, there are countless servants who can testify that Hongxiu did not

Went out."

In a panic, Su Shi thought of the false witnesses she had prepared before. As long as they were allowed to come out, the matter could be settled, no matter how clever Mu Qiaoxi was!

"Why are there no witnesses?" Su said, loudly calling for witnesses.

Mu Qiaoxi took the lead at this moment.

"Oh? Mistress didn't call the witnesses to testify from the beginning? Mistress, is there anything wrong with you?"

Before she finished speaking, Su realized something was wrong.

It's too bad that Mu Qiaoxi was left with such a thing.

"We haven't even asked the question yet. You treat the maid next to me like this and escort her in front of so many people. Where do you put her face? Where do you put my face?"

In the prince's mansion, whether she is a maid or a nun, as a slave, she also represents the face of the master.

Before she could figure out the matter, she regarded Hong Xiu as the culprit. Only then did Su realize that she was impatient, and she panicked when she saw that Mu Qiaoxi had just broken the porcelain vase.

There was no trace of panic on Mu Qiaoxi's face, she was always calm enough to look at Su.

Su, however, was already in disarray and had to quickly use her eyes to stop the servant who wanted to step forward to give false testimony.

"Xi'er, what you said really makes mother sad. Can mother still hurt you? Hurry up and slow down, mother will tell you properly." Su Shi stiffly set up a step for herself.

When Mu Qiaoxi heard this, her heart was full of ridicule, but her face was still filled with a relaxed smile.

"What mother said is true. We are all originally a family. Why did we get into such trouble? It's because mother was not careful enough when doing things."

Mu Qiaoxi obviously had no intention of covering up this matter easily. Su ignored it, but Hongxiu was still humiliated like this, so she had to let out a sigh of relief.

Seeing that Mu Qiaoxi was still unyielding, Mrs. Su had an ugly look on her face.

"Xi'er, it's best to leave this matter to an end. There are differences in the world between superior and inferior. You should not care too much about everything. If you care about everything clearly, you will lose some affection." After Su said, her eyes turned sarcastic.

It fell on Hongxiu.

"There must be some misunderstanding in this matter. It's just a vase. If it breaks, it will break. Mother won't care about you. But I will ask someone to investigate the theft in detail later. Even if Hongxiu may be innocent, he is just a

Slave, as a master, how can you ever make a mistake? Don't you think so?"

After hearing this, Mu Qiaoxi clenched her hands tightly under her sleeves.

"There is a difference between superiority and inferiority, but if a master can't protect the people in his own courtyard, what qualifications do he have to be a master?" She retorted unceremoniously.

Mrs. Su was completely irritated now, and she immediately said: "Then according to what you said, I am the mistress of the family. Do I still want to slander a little slave?"

This was not the first time that Su had belittled Hongxiu, and the anger brewing in Mu Qiaoxi's heart was poured out at this moment.

"Then according to mother's wishes, I am the daughter of my father's wife. After my mother's death, my daughter manages the house. Why should I argue with you about family laws and regulations?"

Now that Mu Qiaoxi had said the words "mother died but daughter takes care of the house", Su felt her eyes darken. She was clearly mocking herself as a successor! She was showing off her identity as the eldest daughter!

Su Shi laughed angrily, walked directly in front of Mu Qiaoxi, and overturned the teacup in her hand.

"Then according to what you mean, Muhou Mansion still needs two sets of rules? Okay, okay, as expected, you have grown up and your wings have hardened, and now it's going to change!"

The tea in Mu Qiaoxi's hand was empty, so she just took out her handkerchief and wiped it slowly.

"Mistress, please calm down. If nothing happens, I will take Hongxiu back."

How could the Su family let Mu Qiaoxi take Hongxiu away so easily?

She screamed and cursed, "Mu Qiaoxi! Stop! This girl Hongxiu is clearly suspected of stealing my dowry today. How could you just take her away with just a few words! Come on, take Hongxiu down for me."

Use family methods! Let’s see if she can do it!”

Judging from Su's intention, she plans to start with Red Sleeves and make a subdued move.

Before Mu Qiaoxi could speak, she saw the servants at the door hurriedly getting out of the way.

Butler Li walked quickly to the front of the hall and said, "Mother, eldest lady, the Marquis found out about this and was very unhappy. He asked this old slave to come over and deliver a message."

Su Shi didn't expect that Mu Zhen, who had always ignored matters in the backyard, would ask Butler Li to send a message?!

Mu Qiaoxi raised her eyebrows slightly, waiting for a good show.

"The Lord Marquis wants to order the old slave to pick out the best vase from the warehouse and deliver it to the mistress's room tomorrow. This matter will be settled and no one will be allowed to mention it again in the future."

Butler Li's tone was firm, and it was not difficult to imagine that this was an order from Mu Zhen, not a negotiation.

Reward her with a new vase? Let this matter end? Are you not allowed to mention it again?

Such a move is undoubtedly a slap in Su's face.
