Rebirth and Reversal of Fortune

Chapter 42 True colors revealed

After tireless efforts, Su Jinxiu and Xiao Ling finally gathered enough evidence to expose Su Yue's crimes one by one.

On this day, sunlight streamed into the courtyard of the Marquis's residence, and Su Jinxiu summoned everyone from the residence.

"Today, I want everyone to know everything Su Yue has done." Su Jinxiu's voice was firm and powerful.

The crowd whispered amongst themselves, all eagerly awaiting the revelation of the truth.

Xiao Ling stood beside Su Jinxiu, holding a thick stack of evidence in his hand.

"For her own selfish desires, Su Yue colluded with outsiders and repeatedly plotted to frame Miss Su Jinxiu, attempting to damage the reputation and peace of the Marquis's mansion." Xiao Ling presented the evidence to everyone one by one.

The evidence includes Su Yue's communications with the mysterious person, transaction records, and witness testimonies.

Everyone in the Marquis's mansion was shocked and furious upon seeing this.

"I never imagined that the Second Miss would be so vicious!"

"What a disgrace to the Marquis's mansion!"

Su Yue was brought up; her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with fear and despair.

"Su Yue, what else do you have to say?" Su Jinxiu questioned.

Su Yue collapsed to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably, "Sister, I was wrong, please forgive me!"

Su Jinxiu looked at her coldly: "You have committed such a grave mistake that it is unforgivable."

At this moment, the old lady also came out with the help of others.

"It's a misfortune for our family to have produced such a wicked child!" the old lady lamented.

Su Yue crawled to the old lady's feet: "Grandmother, your granddaughter knows she was wrong, please save me!"

The old lady turned her head away: "Those who reap what they sow will not live."

Subsequently, Xiao Ling exposed Su Yue's crimes to the public, causing an uproar in the capital.

Those who colluded with Su Yue have all received their due punishment.

The Marquis's mansion finally returned to its former peace, but Su Jinxiu knew that this was only the beginning.

To make up for the losses caused by Su Yue, Su Jinxiu worked even harder to manage the affairs of the Marquis's mansion.

She reformed the management system of the Marquis's mansion, strengthened the training and management of servants, and made the operation of the mansion more efficient and orderly.

At the same time, she actively expanded the Hou family's business and established good cooperative relationships with all parties.

During this process, Su Jinxiu also encountered many difficulties and challenges.

On one occasion, a shipment of goods belonging to the Marquis's residence was robbed during transport.

"Miss, what should we do? If this batch of goods is lost, we will suffer heavy losses!" the manager said anxiously.

Su Jinxiu calmly considered her options: "Don't panic. Send someone to investigate the origins of the robbers, and at the same time contact the local government."

After much effort, the goods were eventually recovered, and the Marquis's residence avoided a major loss.

On another occasion, one of the Hou family's shops was maliciously suppressed by a competitor, and its business plummeted.

Su Jinxiu personally went to the store, and after understanding the situation, she formulated a series of promotional and advertising strategies, which successfully attracted customers and revitalized the store's business.

Thanks to Su Jinxiu's efforts, the Marquis's reputation and status gradually recovered, and the mansion became even more prosperous than before.

Looking at Su Jinxiu's transformation, Xiao Ling felt a surge of admiration and love.

"Jinxiu, you've really impressed me," Xiao Ling said.

Su Jinxiu smiled slightly: "This is what I should do."

However, just when they thought everything was going in a positive direction, the situation in the court changed.

A powerful minister became jealous and resentful of Xiao Ling and attempted to frame him.

"Xiao Ling, this time I will make sure you are utterly disgraced!" the minister vowed inwardly.

He began to slander Xiao Ling to the emperor, saying that Xiao Ling was colluding with the Marquis's mansion and plotting a rebellion.

The emperor listened to the slander and began to doubt Xiao Ling.

"Summon Xiao Ling to the palace!" the emperor ordered.

Xiao Ling knew this was a trap, but he had no choice but to go.

Su Jinxiu was worried about Xiao Ling's safety: "Your Highness, you must be careful on this journey."

Xiao Ling nodded: "Don't worry, I'll handle it."

After Xiao Ling enters the palace, will he be able to resolve this crisis? And how will Su Jinxiu face this sudden change?
