That's her! "
The sharp voice cut through the tranquility of the morning like a knife. As soon as I walked into the yard with a basin of dirty clothes, I saw Yun Wan standing on the steps, holding a ruby-encrusted hosta in her hand, her eyes locked on me like a poisonous snake.
"A Yuan stole my hosta! This was rewarded by Concubine Shen! "
The eyes of more than a dozen maids in the courtyard all fell on me. I was stunned. The wooden basin slipped from my hand and fell to the ground with a clang. The wet clothes were scattered all over the floor.
Before I could say anything, two thick nuns rushed over and held down my shoulders. My knee hit the bluestone hard and I gasped in pain.
"I didn't steal it! "I raised my head desperately, "I have never entered your house! "
Yun Wan walked up to me on her embroidered shoes, squatted down, with a smile on her face that I was all too familiar with. In the past three years, I have seen this smile countless times. Every time she wanted to pour dirty water on my head, the corners of her mouth would twitch first, and then she would show her eight teeth, pretending to be gentle and approachable.
"Never entered? Why is the hosta in your package? "
She threw the hosta in front of me. The ruby refracted dazzling light in the morning light. I stared at it, my mind racing.
I was set up.
