Thinking of this, Madam Hou narrowed her eyes. “1 feel that since she is a scourge, she will harm all of us sooner or later.”
Shu Yu nodded. “l think so too.’
Madam Hou took a deep breath. “Then what should we do?”
She was already prepared to personally attack the Second Miss, but who that Shu Yu would laugh and say, “We’ll put on a show later and just say a few worde ”
Madam Hou was startled. “Say a few words?”
“Yes.” Shu Yu turned her head to look at Sixth Sister. “Sixth Sister, bring the bowls and chopsticks to the kitchen later and see if Second Madam is there.
“When she comes out alone, you can deliberately sneak back and lure Second Madam over. Can you do that?”
The Sixth Young Lady blinked and then nodded quickly. “Yes, I can do it.” The Sixth Young Lady had grown very quickly. In the past, Madam Hou did not allow her to get involved in many things, but now she could not. If she were to develop that kind of ignorant personality, she would not be able to live on.
Thus, Madam Hou and Shu Yu would no longer avoid the Sixth Young Lady when they talked.
After Shu Yu finished her instructions, the sixth girl quickly took the bowls and chopsticks back to the kitchen.
After she left, Shu Yu whispered a few words to Madam Hou. Madam Hou nodded repeatedly after listening.
Not long after, the Sixth Young Lady quietly returned. When she turned around and closed the door, she silently pointed outside.” The Second Madam is here.”
Shu Yu smiled. Madam Hou immediately sat upright and reprimanded the Sixth Young Lady. “What took you so long? Didn’t I tell you to come back after washing the dishes?”
“I heard that Eldest Sister and Second Sister were quarreling, so I wanted to go and watch the show. Who knew that they would finish quarreling?” the Sixth Young Lady said softly.
Madam Hou reprimanded, “What’s there to see? We’re like fire and water now.
Don’t get involved in the matters over there in the future, do you hear me? If they saw you sneaking around, they would think that you were going to steal their things.”
The Second Madam, who was eavesdropping outside the door, pursed her lips.
She had seen Sixth Young Lady’s guilty look just now and indeed thought that she wanted to steal their food. Now it seemed that she was not.
Miss Six explained in a low voice, “Mother, it’s not that serious. When we came here, everyone was the same. We were penniless. What could we steal? If there’s nothing, they wouldn’t be able to slander me like this.”
“You said you..” Madam Hou still wanted to say a few more words to her.
However, Shu Yu suddenly interrupted her and smiled at the sixth girl. “Sixth Sister, you are too naive. Who said that I can’t slander you just because I don’t have anything? Others might not know, but your second sister might not. She’s so vicious. You don’t even know when she killed you.”
Madam Hou was startled. “It can’t be.”
“Why not?” Shu Yu sighed. “I didn’t want to say it at first, but Sixth Sister still hasn’t recognized the truth. She might suffer in the future. It’s fine if you suffer a loss yourself, but don’t drag me down.”
“What is it?”
“That day in Linzhang Prefecture, the leading officer called me over to have a private chat. Seeing that I told them the location of the silver, the leader also bought me a favor and told me a secret.”
When the Second Madam heard the word secret, her eyes widened. She held her breath and pressed her ear closer.
Madam Hou hurriedly asked, “What secret?”
“Seventh Miss was pushed into the water by your seemingly weak Second Sister and drowned.”
“Wha… What?”
