The mistress of the Hou family went crazy after doting on concubines and killing their wives.

Chapter 46 Interrogating Grandma He

"Hey, by the way, there are a lot of new products coming in and out of the Treasure Pavilion. It is said that there will be an auction in two days, and there are some rare treasures. Let's go and see if there is anything we like?"

Li Yuyi looked at the dazed Lu Wan and waved his hand in front of her eyes, "Why are you dazed?"

Lu Wan came to her senses and said, "Okay, has Sister Zuiyuelou in the capital been there?"

"I've been there before. Their dishes are novel and unique. Let's eat there after we pick out the jewelry?"

"Okay, I'm treating you." Lu Wan smiled.

"Okay, I'm rich now." Li Yuyi nodded her forehead, "Okay, I have to go."

Lu Wan personally put the eldest princess into the carriage.

It just so happened that she couldn't wait any longer and wanted to go to Zuiyue Tower to check the situation and accompany the eldest princess to save a lot of trouble.

"Do you know where Aunt He is in prison?" Lu Wan asked Zhiruo while asking Zhiruo to change her into a lightweight undershirt.

Dawn replied, "Locked in an empty room in the west corner of the back cover."

"Let's go take a look."

"Yes."

"It's the right time now. It's too cold, young lady..." Zhiruo saw Lu Wan put on her fur cloak and walked out.

Holly picked up a lantern and followed.

Zhiruo stamped his feet in anxiety, quickly added charcoal to the hand stove, put on the brocade cover, and said, "Xiyan, bring hot tea. Shuyu, ask my mother-in-law to carry the charcoal stove to follow."

Xiyan went to install the small charcoal stove and tea set for warming tea before she finished speaking.

"Hey." Shuyu quickly called the two women in, each carrying a charcoal stove.

A large group of people arrived at the west corner of the back cover, and the boy who was napping in the corner jumped up in a hurry.

"The eldest girl is here? Do you want to interrogate Aunt He? She is tied up tightly inside. She has not been given food or drink for a day, but she has not made any fuss. She is quite honest. The younger one is keeping a strict eye on her and makes sure no one touches her."

The young boy won the reward from the older girl, so he was afraid of not performing well, so he talked about it in detail.

No fuss? This person is calm enough.

"Has Aunt Wu been here?"

"Not yet, I just told no one to come close."

"Well, open the door."

Without any hesitation, the boy immediately took out the key and opened the door. Pushing open the empty room, Grandma He was sitting in the corner with her hands and feet tied.

The boy quickly moved a chair under the window near the door and wiped it vigorously with his sleeve.

Lu Wan glanced at him and sat down.

The mother-in-law put down the two charcoal stoves on the left and right, and the boy found a coffee table from somewhere, and Xiyan put on the small charcoal stove and tea sets.

Lu Wan took the tea cup and took a sip of warm tea, then raised her eyelids and looked at Aunt He who was glaring at her.

"Your master has been sent to Zhuangzi. The child in his belly is gone. She has no support. You have no support. Why don't you plan to say something?"

Aunt He sneered, "Master will not give up easily. I serve my master with all my heart, and there is nothing to say."

The mouth is quite tough.

She knew that Nanny He would not take the initiative to spit out anything, after all, she didn't have any evidence in hand.

But, man,

Once the seeds of doubt are planted.

The seeds will take root and sprout on their own, and some things will reveal their flaws on their own.

Lu Wan lowered her head, picked up the tea lid and brushed away the foam, and said slowly, "It doesn't matter if you don't tell me, but I'm just a slave. It's up to our Marquis to sell her and kill her."

"Doctor Sun is different from you. He is from Bianjing and has a family of young and old. He can do evil things for money, but if it hurts himself, he will not keep secrets for you outsiders. I will leave him to In Kaifeng Mansion, I hit him with more than ten sticks and he spit out everything."

boom.

The tea lid fell, and the crisp sound was particularly harsh in the dark and cold room.

The girl Qingliang sneered, "It's just that by then, you won't have a chance to confess. Because you are useless."

Grandma He trembled for no reason.

The weak candlelight reflected a bright little face that flickered on and off. There was a smile on the corner of the mouth, but the face was expressionless.

Here and there are sixteen-year-old girls, simply life-seeking female Rakshasa.

"My master didn't do anything, and this slave has nothing to say." Although his words were still harsh, his tone was not as arrogant as before.

"Then let me guess."

Lu Wan smiled slightly, "Looking at your daily behavior, you are not like ordinary slaves. You are used to managing people, and you also know how to calculate people's hearts. You are especially good at winning over men's minds. You have seen the world. Maybe you are not a slave. .”

This was Lu Wan's impression of her in her previous life. Otherwise, if Zhao Ruyi could win over her father alone, her grandmother would not be able to hold the power of the eldest son's household affairs in her hands.

Grandma He raised her face, and a flash of astonishment flashed in her eyes.

You guessed it right?
Lu Wan felt confident and gave her another blow, "Zhao Ruyi is not a relative of the Zhao family. You can enter the Hou Mansion because of my father."

Grandma He froze and stared at her blankly.

Lu Wan handed the tea cup to Xi Yan and stood up, "Think about it for yourself. Do you want to live or die for Zhao Ruyi?"

Grandma He watched blankly as a large group of people walked away and the door slammed shut.

She didn't ask Juezitang a word, but instead stared at Zhao Ruyi's identity?
Does she know?

Lu Wan went out, looked at the boy and asked kindly, "What's your name?"

"Back to the eldest girl, the younger one has a low reputation. Please don't blame me if you offend the older lady's ears. The younger one is called Goudaner."

He didn't even have a proper name, he was the lowest level of servant.

He's just a talkative guy.

Lu Wan took a serious look at him. His facial features were straight, but there were black spots and thin spots.

"Well, you did a good job. Zhiruo, I will reward you with ten taels of silver."

"Ah..." Goudan'er's jaw almost dropped in shock. He didn't recover until a heavy amount of ten taels of silver fell on his hand.

However, the eldest girl didn't tell him to do anything.

Looking up again, Lu Wan was already surrounded by a large group of maids and women.

He slapped himself, "You're stupid, you don't know what to ask the big girl for!"

Then, he plopped down, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed heavily to Lu Wan's back, "Mom, we have enough money to see a doctor. The eldest girl is our noble lady."

Zhiruo was helping Lu Wan comb her hair, and Lu Wan whispered, "I think this boy is very smart. Please inquire about him. If possible, transfer him to Yuyi Pavilion. I don't have two useful boys. .”

"Okay, I will take care of it tomorrow."

Lu Wan thought for a while, "You go to the warehouse to pick out a piece of jewelry suitable for Grandma Wu's age, and then choose a piece of Yuehua brocade suitable for her daughter, and go find her in person. Ask her how she plans to interrogate Dr. Sun's family. Tell her that the nights are long and the dreams are many.”

Zhiruo was shocked. When did the eldest girl become so meticulous and calculating in everything she did?

She had a premonition that the eldest girl was going to make huge waves, but she nodded without hesitation, "I will definitely take care of it."

Grandma Wu was holding an exquisite rosewood box, and her eyes almost popped out when she looked at a pair of butterflies, a gold hairpin with begonia, and a colorful moon brocade inside.

There are so many people who usually respect her and ask her to do things. Even the two wives will give her things, but no big girl is generous.

"This... is so valuable, how dare I accept it?"

I know that the eldest girl must have something she wants. The gold hairpin is okay, she doesn’t need it.

But Yue Hua Jin is rare, and only a young lady from a wealthy family can get a piece of clothing. If her daughter makes a lifetime skirt in summer, she will definitely make the children of ordinary families in Bianjing jealous to death.

Zhiruo smiled and put the things on Grandma Wu's bed. "The eldest girl said that she only cared about playing in the past and didn't know how hard it was to take care of things. She learned to read the account books in the past two days and was amazed. She said that Grandma Wu has been serving the old lady for a long time." It's very hard. It's not easy to manage a large stall in the Hou Mansion on weekdays. This little thing will make your girl happy. The eldest girl also said that she should ask her daughter to find her when she has time before she is married. Play and pick out one or two pieces of jewelry for her that match the Yuehua Brocade."

Aunt Wu couldn't help but feel moved, and said gratefully, "Young lady is so kind-hearted. If you have any instructions, please just tell me."

"Young lady, I don't have any instructions. I just want to ask grandma how she plans to interrogate the doctors of the Sun family, so as to avoid long nights and dreams."

Aunt Wu understood immediately and lowered her voice and said, "Go back and report to the girl. Doctor Sun has already taken care of you. The matter is serious and the old lady hasn't figured out how to ask yet. She is afraid of alerting the snake without asking anything." .”

Zhiruo sneered in his heart, they are all old foxes.

She nodded, "Our girl is young and doesn't think things through. The eldest girl is worried that Grandma He and Sun Mansion's doctor colluded to confess."

"Please rest assured, eldest lady, I promise it won't happen. After all, it is about the face of the Marquis Mansion, and I know the seriousness of the matter."

When Zhiruo got this answer, he smiled and said, "Then Zhiruo won't bother me anymore."

Aunt Wu thought for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."

She turned around and took out a folded piece of paper from the cabinet drawer, "This is the situation at Sun's doctor's house. I'm afraid the eldest girl may need it."

Zhiruo was overjoyed and nodded gratefully, "Thank you, mama."

What an unexpected bonus.
