Chapter 143 Doubt

"Since you were in such a good mood at Longzhuang, why did you have to go back to the Censor's Mansion later?"

Mrs. Jiang thought for a while and then remembered: "It seems...it seems that Miss Fifth's grandmother is ill, and Madam went back to take care of her."

Yun Xi thought about it and found it absurd. She remembered that in her previous life, the old lady of the Yushi Mansion had a strong body. How could she be so sick when her mother was pregnant?
"Mother-in-law, my grandmother is ill. There are other people in the house. Her other children are with her, as well as the servants and doctors. Why are you so anxious to send my mother back? My mother had already given birth to two children before she was pregnant with me. The third brother and fourth sister died young. When I was born, my mother took care of herself for five years before she became pregnant with me, and the fetus was unstable. How could she easily let my mother travel back and forth?"

Mother-in-law Jiang shook her head and said: "Fifth Miss, I don't know about the affairs in the Yushi Mansion, maybe Aunt Qiu knows, Aunt Qiu has been serving Madam."

"Where is Aunt Qiu now?"

Mrs. Jiang continued to shake her head: "I haven't seen her since the madam left. I heard that the old madam drove her away. I heard from old man Qian that she had been to Longzhuang, but then we were arrested and imprisoned, and we never contacted her again. "

When Mrs. Jiang saw Yun Xi frowning and frowning all the time, she was horrified: "Little... Miss, are you doubting the cause of Madam's death?"

The corners of Yun Xi's lips twitched in a non-smiling way: "Mother-in-law, I have no doubts. What I asked you today must not be spread out. Just treat it as a conversation about family matters."

"Fifth Miss, don't worry, I won't talk too much." Mrs. Jiang said firmly.

"Of course I can rest assured about you and Uncle Qian. You would rather go to jail to protect your mother's things. I will leave this village to you, but you have to be careful of those former supervisors, who may come back to cause trouble."

"Don't worry, Miss Fifth, Old Man Qian and I will protect Longzhuang even if we fight our lives."

Yun Xi is a sweet-tempered person. Even after experiencing a tragic past life, she still cannot be truly hard-hearted. After she and Mrs. Jiang explained the treatment of the workers, they left the village with their two dogs, Snow Velvet, Qingluan and Jasmine.

Now that she came to Longzhuang, her purpose had been achieved. She took back her mother's dowry and planted new seeds of doubt in her heart.

Mother, what have you experienced?My daughter wants to find out the truth.

Master Nan Xuan had told Mu Yihan to protect Yun Xi and return home safely.So Mu Yihan and Yun Xi left the village together.

Yun Xi told Yi Han many times that there was no need to send it away, but Yi Han insisted on sending it all the way to the gate of the Yushi Mansion.

"I will send you here right away. Miss Fifth, take your leave." Yi Han cupped his hands and said.

"Thank you, General. Although this safety buckle is not as good as the imperial green bracelet given by Master, it is still made of rare and good jade. I hope General will not dislike it."

Mu Yihan took the safety buckle, thanked him quietly, turned around and rode away.

Yun Xi stared at its retreating figure for a long time, until Qingluan said: "Miss, the general is gone." Yun Xi retracted his gaze and turned around to enter the house.

The mansion was surprisingly quiet, and no one was seen all the way back to Osmanthus Hall. When they returned to Osmanthus Hall, Chunhua informed: "Yesterday, when the master came back to the mansion, he got very angry at his wife and eldest lady. He cursed for a long time, and finally grounded his wife and banned her. Take half a step away from Cuiyuxuan."

Yun Xi said: "Is it just grounding?"

Chunhua said: “Currently I’ve only heard of the ban.”

"What about Housekeeper Zhou?"

"The housekeeper and everyone around the madam are staying in Cuiyuxuan and are not allowed to go out."

Yun Xi was disappointed.

Her father could punish her severely without asking for reasons, but he was very tolerant of the crimes committed by Qin and others.
