"Where did the clothes come from? Whose are they?" Xie Yuanjiu asked, trembling.
Second Madam Xie's eyes darted away. "I forgot..."
Xie Yuanjiu took a closer look and realized they looked like a maid's uniform from the mansion.
She sucked in a sharp breath, remembering how everyone in the mansion had been complaining about her mother, Second Madam Xie, when she had just returned.
A young maid who was very popular in the Xie Mansion had been assigned to serve Second Madam Xie, but one night, she had bizarrely died after hitting her head on a rock!
Seeing the bloody clothes, Xie Yuanjiu instantly connected them to what she had heard before.
She strode forward and grabbed Second Madam Xie by the collar. "You killed her, didn't you!"
Second Madam Xie covered her face and sobbed.
"I didn't want to kill her, but she was eavesdropping on me."
That day, she had hit the young maid, Wenxiu. At first, she just wanted to vent her frustrations, but somehow, she gradually lost control.
