Putting the Blame

At this thought, Bao Sheng secretly clenched her fists, but her expression did not change. She picked up the plate with the jujube mashed yam cake and leisurely walked over to Second Young Master Nangong Xin.

The plate should have been placed on the seat between Nangong Xin and Nangong Yue, but she purposely took a detour around Nangong Xin before flexing her legs, pretending that someone had kicked her. At the same time, the plate flew out of her hand, and the Zaobao Fruit Cake flew out …

She pretended to scream and fell to the ground, but in her heart she was very proud of herself: It's done!

With a "pa la" sound, the sweet and white porcelain plate broke into pieces, and even the jujube paste mountain medicine cake was smashed into pieces.

"Please forgive me, Old Madame!" Bao Sheng kneeled on the ground and turned around, kowtowing, "This servant didn't do it on purpose. Second Young Master tripped me out of the blue. "Please forgive me, madame!"

She was rather heartless and kowtowed heavily on the ground. After a few moments, her forehead was flushed red and her pair of beautiful eyes were filled with tears. She looked very attractive.

"You, you liar!" Nangong Xin was so angry that he jumped up from his chair, his mouth was puffing out in anger as he pointed at Bao Sheng and said, "You're a bad girl! I didn't trip you! "

His childish appearance was adorable in the eyes of Nangong Yue and Madame Lin. However, in the eyes of the Old Madam, he seemed disdainful. Then, she coldly said, "Xin'er, you are usually the most mischievous one. This little prank does is too much".

Madam Huang always followed the Old Madame's lead, standing at the side and coldly said as if they were watching a good show, "Xin'er, this is clear to everyone. If you admit your wrongs, you can change it.

"As long as you sincerely apologize to your grandmother, Old Madame will definitely forgive you. " Madame Huang had always been a little unlucky to lose others. Hence, she was eager to see something happen so that they could see a joke.

Bao Sheng's forehead was pressed against the cold ground. She didn't dare to raise her head, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised at an angle that no one could see.

She knew she had won this bet. She already knew that the Old Madame did not like the second young master. As long as she used him as a scapegoat, not only would she not anger the Old Madame, she might even be able to follow her mistress' wishes and gain blessings!

Naturally, Nangong Yue believed in her brother. Furthermore, she was sitting next to him. This girl, Bao Sheng, had thought that she had done it perfectly, but it had not escaped the eyes of a physician like her.

She was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly. Previously, she had only felt that her elder brother's servant had neglected him, but it turned out that the servants of the Residence all felt that these siblings were easy to bully!

She coldly scanned the pastries on the ground and immediately found the problem. Her lips curled up. Since this Bao Sheng had delivered herself to her doorstep, she would properly teach her a lesson!

She suddenly stood up. Under everyone's probing gazes, she was neither servile nor overbearing. She had a unique temperament that did not belong to her age.

She turned towards to the Old Madame and said, "Grandmother, please listen to Yue'er. Yue'er saw clearly that this Big Sis Bao Sheng fell down on her own, and she even had to blame it on Big Bro!"

Pausing for a moment, she continued in a structured manner, "From what Yue'er can see, perhaps Big Sister Bao Sheng has thrown the food box in the garden after she took the food box from the kitchen. That's when the Zaobao Cake crumbled. She did not dare to admit her wrongs, so she decided to scold us! "

The more Bao Sheng laid on the ground, the uglier her expression became. She never thought that this Third Miss would be so formidable.

It was as if she personally witnessed what happened as she told the whole story. Although she was scared, she knew that she was in a rush and couldn't change her words anymore.

In any case, the Third Young Miss had no proof, as long as she refuse to admit, it would be the second young master's fault!

Her heart raced as she made her decision in the blink of an eye. She raised her head and looked at the Old Madame for help. "Madame, Second Young Master really tripped over a servant. Please investigate!" Her delicate oval face was filled with panic.

Both sides' words were reasonable. The Old Madame had already started to suspect in her hearts, but she felt that if their own servant girl were to do such an undignified thing, it would really damage her reputation.

The moment she saw the Old Madame's expression, she knew what she was thinking. Therefore, she laughed even harder, and her attitude became even more arrogant, "Miss Yue'er, this servant knows that your relationship with each other has always been deep, but you shouldn't have helped your brother out of injustice!"

She chuckled to herself, as long as the old mistress stood by her side, everything would be fine!

"What if Yue'er has evidence?" Nangong Yue calmly said and frightened Bao Sheng yet again.

She thought to herself, "Don't tell me the third lady really has evidence?" How is that possible?

"Grandmother, please look at the crushed pastries. Yue'er has just checked them and at first glance, there is only jujube paste and sweet osmanthus flowers in the pastries".

"However, Yue'er discovered that there are even some flower petals mixed within. Yue'er remembers that the welcoming spring flowers in the garden seemed to have bloomed very sweetly. "

When she said this, everyone understood. The jujube paste yam cake made in the kitchen was usually fragrant with sweet osmanthus flowers with yellow petals. The flower petals were also small and yellow.

At first glance, they looked very similar. It must be because Bao Sheng had dropped the food box in the garden in the morning and opened it to check. Who knew that a few spring petals would fall into the food box, but in her panic, she didn't notice. Now it had become an ironclad proof!

Nangong Yue knew that everyone had already thought it through, but she still said deliberately, "Grandmother's room is filled with girls that do their best. How can there be spring petals on the ground? "Therefore, Yue'er boldly determined that it was all because of Bao Sheng!"

Old Madame Su's expression became extremely unsightly. Wang mama quickly stepped forward and carefully examined the pastry, then reported, "Old Madame, Third Miss is correct. There are indeed spring flower petals mixed in there."

This was definitely a crime against Bao Sheng!

"Bao Sheng, it's really you! You really disappoint me!" Old Madame suddenly stood up from her chair. She glared at Bao Sheng coldly.

Her face was already quite dark. Although she already had some confidence, but when the evidence was placed in front of her, she was still ashamed and indignant.

She didn't expect that it was really her servant that had slapped her in the face!

Wang mama immediately took a step forward and shouted, "Bao Sheng, the madame has never been unkind to you. I didn't expect you to do such an ugly thing as framing master!"

Madame Zhao expression was a little strange as she sized up Nangong Yue. She thought to herself, I never thought that Yue'er would be so bold.

Under the Old Madame's majesty, Bao Sheng was so scared that she involuntarily cried out. Her body trembled like a leaf in the cold wind.

She hesitated for a moment before gritting her teeth and prostrating herself on the ground, "Old Madame, this servant was wrong. Please let me go this time …"

"It was a moment of confusion for this servant …" She sobbed and kowtowed on the ground, using even more force than before. "Old madam, please forgive me this one!" "Old madame …"
