Now Xiao Yunni is a grasshopper on the same rope as Xiao Xuetang. Seeing Ye Jin and the Third Madam doing bad things, she naturally can't just die without helping them!

Xiao Yunni immediately stood up and said, "I won't bother you, Third Aunt. I think I should go out and look for Xiao Xuetang and take a breath."

The Third Madam sneered, "Yun Ni, what do you mean by this? Are you worried that we will harm the eldest lady, or are you plotting something with the eldest lady?"

When the Third Madam asked what she was plotting, everyone immediately turned their inquiring eyes to Xiao Yunni...

Although she lived the same life again, Xiao Yunni was far from having Xiao Xuetang's ability to remain calm even when faced with a catastrophe. She felt a little nervous when everyone was looking at her.

Even the old lady began to have doubts in her heart, remembering how Xiao Xuetang had previously plotted against her so many treasures. Her intuition told her that there was something fishy going on!

At this time, the person who was asking for information beside the Third Madam came back and said, "Madam, I just heard from the master in the courtyard that the eldest daughter went to the lotus pond in the back mountain. She has been gone for more than half an hour. It's a remote place. Could something have happened to the eldest daughter?"

The old lady sneered: "She is very smart, what can go wrong!"

It can be seen that the old lady is now very dissatisfied with Xiao Xuetang's resistance, and her disgust is simply beyond words.

As she spoke, the old lady stood up and sneered, "We have been sitting for so long, why don't we walk to loosen up our muscles and see what good things there are in the lotus pond in the back mountain that can keep her here for so long that she doesn't even have time to serve her own grandmother."

Seeing the old lady's aggressive look, Xiao Yunni felt even more uneasy. She wanted to say something, but was stopped by the second lady.

The Second Madam whispered to Xiao Yunni, "I don't care what you and Xiao Xuetang are up to, but I think something is wrong with Huguo Temple today. Don't talk nonsense, or you'll end up getting into trouble."

Xiao Yunni, who was originally extremely anxious, looked at the Second Madam with a half-believing and half-doubting gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"

The Second Madam shook her head and said, "I can't tell you the details, but I have a feeling that something big is going to happen today!"

Just as the Second Lady finished her words, a maid suddenly ran over in a panic. Seeing everyone around, she tried to hide, but was discovered by the Third Lady with her quick eyes and hands.

"stop!"

The Third Madam scolded the maid and stopped her, "Whose maid are you from? Why are you hiding when you see us? Why don't you turn around and take a look!"

The third lady is usually quiet, but now she is relying on the old lady's favor to act like a bully.

Hearing this, the maid looked up tremblingly. The Third Madam was shocked when she saw the maid's appearance and said, "Aren't you Qiyue, the maid beside the eldest lady? Why are you here? Where is the eldest lady?"

Qiyue's eyes flashed with panic, and she said, "The young lady is tired from shopping and is now resting in the meditation room. I... I came to find a handkerchief for her."

But the Third Madam was so smart that she didn't miss the flash of panic in Qiyue's eyes. She sneered and said, "You are lying. If you are looking for a handkerchief, why are you hiding from us? Could it be that... your eldest daughter is doing something shameful?"

"No, no, our young lady is a pure and innocent girl, please don't slander her, madam."

Qiyue quickly refuted the Second Madam, but the more she defended Xiao Xuetang, the more the Second Madam thought there was something fishy going on.

Ye Jin at the side also said: "Madam, this place is so remote, there is nothing to see except a shabby house. I think my sister is definitely not here. Why don't we look for her somewhere else?"

Hearing Ye Jin say this, a lady who was on good terms with the Third Lady said sarcastically, "Some things are easier to handle with fewer people."

After saying this, everyone laughed...

Just at this moment, several noises were heard in the originally remote yard, like a woman's screams.

"There's someone in this room!"

Suddenly someone shouted, and then some curious people came forward to take a look, but were stopped by Qiyue.

Qiyue looked at the Third Madam and pleaded in a low voice: "Madam, let's not go over there."

Seeing Qiyue like this, the Third Madam was even more certain that Xiao Xuetang was inside. She pushed Qiyue away and said, "Damn slave, you have no right to speak here!"

The noise inside was getting louder and louder. In addition to the woman's screams, there were also men breathing heavily...

"It's broad daylight in a forbidden Buddhist place. Could it be that someone is doing something like that?"

"Who is so bold... This is the Huguo Temple. If the news gets out, it will be a capital crime."

"Today's incident has become a big deal. We should ask the abbot to come..."

The rational lady stopped the third lady, trying to persuade her not to act impulsively.

But now the Third Madam felt that she had won the battle, so she would not listen to any advice. She shook off her hand and ordered her attendants, "Quick, break the door open. I want to see what these master and servant are up to..."

What she meant was that she was certain that the person inside was Xiao Xuetang.

The Third Lady had no grudge against Xiao Xuetang, but who made Xiao Xuetang block her daughter's way?

As long as Xiao Xuetang was caught cheating, the marriage with the Third Prince would belong to her daughter Ruoruo.

And she will go from being an invisible person in the Marquis' Mansion to the mother of the Prince's Consort, and will be able to trample all those who looked down on her in the past under her feet!

Thinking of this, her cheeks flushed with excitement, as if the wealth and honor of the world were within her reach...

Seeing that Third Madam ordered people to knock on the door, Qiyue wanted to stop them and said, "Third Madam, I don't let you knock on the door because it's for your and Old Madam's sake."

"Go away!"

The Third Madam was furious and was about to slap Qiyue when she heard a clear voice from behind them: "It's so lively here."

"Qiyue, I asked you to find a handkerchief for me, why are you being lazy here?"

Following the sound, everyone saw Xiao Xuetang in a crimson dress, standing behind a banyan tree, looking at them with a smile on her lips.

At that moment, the Third Madam and Ye Jin's faces suddenly changed, and they exclaimed in unison: "Xiao Xuetang, why are you here?"

Xiao Xuetang brushed off the fallen leaves on her shoulders, still smiling, but looking at them coldly, she said, "I don't understand what you are saying, sister. If I'm not here, where else should I be?"

The Third Madam's eyes were filled with shock and she said in a trembling voice, "You are here, then...the people inside..."

The usually weak Third Madam burst out with amazing momentum for the first time in her life, and said to the servant who was about to push the door: "Stop it!"

Almost at the same time as she spoke, the two servants had kicked open the lock on the door, and then a ridiculous scene appeared inside, which shocked these experienced ladies...
