Chapter 329 Honghu Villa (10)

Xiao Ling burned the letter after reading it. She looked expressionless, as if she was not moved at all, and her eyes were just looking out the window.

She seemed to have resigned to her fate in an instant, her heart seemed to have fallen into deathly silence, and she became taciturn and indifferent to everything.

Xiao Niansheng, who was still young, didn't understand what happened. He only knew that his adoptive father disappeared in just one night, and he and his mother were trapped in Honghu Villa, unable to move freely.

As the time spent trapped in the Villa grew longer, Xiao Niansheng gradually understood that his mother was imprisoned by the current young master of Honghu Villa.

He occasionally heard the maids in Zhuxi Garden talking secretly several times. From their conversations, Xiao Niansheng could roughly guess the real purpose of the young owner of the village - that person was lustful and wanted to monopolize his mother. !

Xiao Niansheng thought that it was probably that person who tried every means to force his adoptive father away.

Realizing this, Xiao Niansheng was particularly angry - that man clearly already had a married wife, so why did he still covet another woman?
Could it be that because of his high reputation, status, and power, he could do whatever he wanted and rob civilian girls?

Xiao Niansheng vowed to make the evildoer pay the price, so he tried to find a way to report this despicable villain to the owner of Honghu Villa.

But before he ran out of the gate of Zhuxi Garden, he was carried back.

The person who captured him was Manager Xu who took his mother away from the inn that day.

Xiao Niansheng hates Jiang Yin, the culprit, and also hates the smiling tiger who helped him.

"Even though Mrs. Xiao is in a bad mood, she must take good care of you and the young owner's child." Manager Xu smiled and said, "This child almost ran out of Zhuxi Garden and was so reckless. If it hadn't been for me, If we meet, we may bump into each other somewhere.”

Xiao Ling waved gently, and Xiao Niansheng ran behind her and hid.

"Nian Sheng has always been well-behaved and sensible. At this age, he is curious about everything. Do I still have to restrain him and not allow him to walk around and relax?" Xiao Ling said:
"Besides, it's not anyone else's turn to comment on how I teach my children. Or do you mean, Manager Xu, that you represent Jiang Yin, and you want Niansheng to be banned here with me?"

Manager Xu said: "That's not what I meant. I just wanted to remind Madam to be careful of the young master getting lost."

"Really? Then I would like to thank you for your concern -" Xiao Ling sneered softly: "Dare you ask Manager Xu if you have finished what you want to say? If there is nothing else, I will rest."

Manager Xu said: "I have no intention of disturbing Madam's rest, but the young master of the village has one more thing he wants me to convey to you——

"There may have been changes in the villa in the past few days. The young owner of the villa is busy with affairs and has no time to take care of his wife and young master. He also asks his wife to take good care of himself and his young master. If it is not necessary, do not leave Zhuxi Garden."

This sounded unusual, so Xiao Ling asked, "Oh? What happened in the village that made you so nervous?" If a big change happened, would she have a chance to escape from Honghu Villa with Xiao Niansheng?

Manager Xu still smiled: "It's a happy event - the young master is about to officially take over as the master of Honghu Villa, and the succession ceremony will be three days later.

"At the moment, the young master of the village is busy entertaining guests and preparing for the succession ceremony. It is inevitable that he will neglect the madam for a while. Please forgive me."

"So that's it." Xiao Ling didn't care about Jiang Yin at all. Now that Jiang Yin has no skills, she was just happy to be quiet: "I understand what you mean. Don't worry, I will just rest in Zhuxi Garden."

"So good."

Later, Manager Xu claimed that he still had important matters to deal with, so he got up and left Zhuxi Garden. After he left, Xiao Ling looked outside the courtyard and fell into deep thought.

Although she didn't know much about Honghu Villa, as far as she knew, although the owner was not young, he had not yet reached the age of disbandment and return to the farm. Why did he suddenly want to hand over the position of owner to Jiang Yin?
Xiao Ling suspected that there was something inside, so he kept a close eye on it and sent his maids out to find out the news.

Soon, the maid ran back with the news:

"Madam, you are really good at predicting things! There is really something strange happening in Honghu Villa, and there may be many inside stories about the succession ceremony of their young master! The servant carefully checked the Villa and found that the Villa seemed to be about to have a storm. Look, It’s not peaceful.”

Although Xiao Ling had already made a guess, she only vaguely felt that something was not right. She did not know the actual situation. So she asked: "Really? Have you found any clues?"

The maid said: "Madam, you don't know. Since we moved into Zhuxi Garden, two major events have happened in the villa one after another! Madam has never gone out, so she doesn't know. In fact, as early as half a month ago, the owner of Honghu Villa suddenly became violent. Dead!"

"What?" Xiao Ling asked in surprise: "The owner of the village is dead?"

It's not because he abdicated his throne because he was old, but because he died?
"Why did the owner of the Villa suddenly...I heard that the owner of Honghu Villa just turned forty this year. He was a martial arts practitioner and had always been strong and healthy. How could he die in the blink of an eye?" Xiao Ling asked:

"Have you found out the cause of the village owner's death? I suspect there is something fishy about his death."

The maid shook her head and said, "I don't know about this. But I also heard about another thing... Madam, does she know how the engagement between the young owner and Miss Lan came about?"

"Whatever you want to say, just say it." Xiao Ling said.

The maid said: "This started when Xuanrong and Xuanrong were at war a few years ago.

"I heard that Mr. Jiang was a prisoner trapped in Rongguo at that time. That year, the owner of Honghu Villa went out to do business and happened to pass by the border between Xuanguo and Rongguo. By chance, he met the soldiers of Rongguo who were humiliating the prisoners of Xuanguo. …”

Master Lanzhuang was an upright martial artist with a chivalrous heart, so naturally he could not bear to bully others, so he rescued the captives and let them go home.

Not only that, he also single-handedly burned down the camps of Rongguo soldiers and rescued countless abducted Xuanguo women.

Master Lan originally planned to save the people and leave, but he found that one of the prisoners was poisoned.

That man was a medicine man specially imprisoned in the Rongguo military camp, and he had been poisoned with a variety of poisons that were difficult to cure in this world. When Master Lan met him, he was already dying.

But the medicine man had a strong desire to survive. Even though he was only a breath away, he still grabbed the hem of Lan Zhuang's clothes and asked for help. The owner of Lan Villa couldn't bear to see him die, so he had to take him back to Honghu Villa first.

After the medicine man was brought back to the villa, Master Lan asked famous doctors to treat him, and even asked the famous Luohe ghost doctor to help.

Luohe Ghost Doctor's medical skills were superb. Under his treatment, the medicine man's condition was quickly relieved and he slowly recovered.

"It's just that the poisons penetrated too deeply into the bones, and some of the toxins could not be completely eliminated. Perhaps due to the influence of those toxins, the medicine man lost his memory after waking up. He did not remember his own name, let alone where he came from. "The maid said:

"Later, the medicine man named himself 'Jiang Yin' and lived in Honghu Villa."
