"I never thought that the poor princess would have this kind of good thing!" Xia He caressed the jade bracelet and said in a loving voice.
"Un, little sister Xia He, let's quickly clean up these worthless things and throw them out." After Chun Tao obtained the jade bracelet, she did not care about anything else. She even spat on the clothes on the ground.
Xiao Ru saw this and her eyes turned red with anger.
Eldest Miss wasn't dead yet, but these two maids couldn't wait to throw away Eldest Miss' belongings as if they were scrap metal. They were really going too far!
She could not hold it in any longer. She broke free from Chen Ning's hand and forcefully pushed open the door. She shouted, "You really are bold. These are all my young miss' dowry. You two thieves!"
"Who is it!"
Chun Tao and Xia He did not think that there would be someone outside, so they were shocked. When they saw that it was Xiao Ru standing at the door, they both let out a sigh of relief and gave a snort.
"Pei! So it's the dowry maid. If you aren't crying for your young miss, what are you doing here? "Chun Tao narrowed her eyes and did not even look at Xiao Ru. She picked up a piece of clothing and stuffed it into the box.
They had received news that the princess had been captured by his highness not long after she escaped and was locked up in the wooden hut. His highness had even personally beaten the princess until she spat out blood and died. Moreover, he had already sent people to collect the princess' corpse.
So these two maids took advantage of the fact that no one had come to collect Chen Ning's clothes to take away all the valuable things.
"Take away your dirty hands, don't touch my young miss' things!" Xiao Ru charged into the room and took the clothes from Chun Tao's hands. Looking at the dirty clothes, tears almost fell down.
"But these are all broken things, we don't care about them. You can take them all and take them to the pawn shop for some money. You can buy some paper money for your young miss to burn, so you and your maids won't be in vain." The one who spoke was Xia He. She curled her lips and said in a sarcastic manner.
"You ….." Xiao Ru was so angry that she could not say anything. She pointed at the jade bracelet in their hands and shouted, "These are my young miss' dowry items. You two thieves, give them back! Give them back to me! "
"What dowry? What thief? Don't spout nonsense here." Chun Tao and Xia He gave a cold laugh, "My highness has already sent people to collect your young miss' corpse. You should hurry and send her off. If you're late, you won't even be able to see your young miss for the last time!"
When their voices fell, they heard the door open with a "dang" sound. A cold wind blew in, causing the door to slightly shake.
"Who is it, cursing me to death?" A low voice sounded at the door.
Chun Tao and Xia He jumped in fright and looked towards the door at the same time. They saw a white clothed figure standing in front of the door. His long hair draped over his shoulders, his face was expressionless and his eyes were staring straight ahead.
"Ghost … there's a ghost …" The two maids felt their hair stand on end and their teeth chattered.
Isn't this the Princess's ghost?
The two of them were scared out of their wits and almost fainted.
"If you don't do anything shameful, you won't be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. You two are this scared of me, did you do something shameful?"
Chen Ning revealed a faint smile. Her clear as water eyes looked over the two maids' faces as she walked into the room.
There were two candles in the room and her shadow was drawn out by the candlelight, reflecting on the blue brick floor.
When Xiahe lowered her head and saw it, she immediately became bolder.
