The reborn prince's wife
Chapter 54
Originally, Lin did not expect that Liu Yun would seriously assist her in investigating the matter of the old lady being drugged. She thought that Yi Liuyun's temper was just a bluff, but she did not expect that she would actually come to participate in these Lin can't drive her away, so she can only take her to investigate these things together.
Of course, what she doesn't know is that Liu Yun is not interested in knowing who poisoned the old lady. After all, with the old lady's shrewdness, she probably knows it already, and she doesn't need to be this bad person. She just wants to Take this opportunity to get to know the servants in the mansion deeply, and also plan how to install her people.
In the past, Liu Yun always held high and looked down on servants, but he didn't know that the battles between wives and concubines of many wealthy families were not won or lost by themselves, but by those servants who they regarded as ants, success and Xiao He defeated Xiao He. reason.
Lin is happy to see Liu Yun put on airs and say cruel words in front of the servants, and if someone rushes forward to make a bad face, she will naturally take this ready-made white face as a pawn, but she forgot that the servants will turn the steering wheel when the wind blows, and they will secretly hate it , but can also distinguish who is cruel and cannot be offended. Compared with the second lady who is decisive but considerate of her servants, the eldest lady who is vicious and arrogant is even more difficult to offend.
This is also the reason why many servants secretly turned against each other during the war between the eldest lady and the second lady.
It's not that Lin doesn't understand this truth, it's just that she was temporarily blinded by the flattery and flattery of the servants. Only later did she understand that slavery is really something that cannot be changed. Many people have more or less been favored by the Ji family. After Ji's death, they watched Lin's spoiling of the young lady with cold eyes. Their refusal to express their opinions does not mean that they acquiesced, they just had no position and no opportunity, so when Liu Yun asked for help later, they would silently reach out to help Mistress Ji's daughter.
A long time later, when Lin realized that Liu Yun's connections had infiltrated, it was already too late.
Of course, at this time, Lin still acted like a loving mother, as if Liuyun was her own daughter, and even thought Liuyun's arrogance was childish nonsense, even if Lan Xi reminded her, she still Did not really see the face of Liu Yun.
The Lin family sent people to bring the two little girls from the kitchen of Liuxianju to interrogate who had entered the kitchen and used the old lady's medicine. When he was about to investigate from other aspects, Liu Yun suddenly said casually, "Since they refuse to speak, let's see how hard their bones are."
As soon as this remark came out, Lin immediately frowned, "Yun'er, don't mess around, how can our Mu family do things like torture?"
"Aunt Lin's words are wrong. How could this be torture? The kitchen is the scope of their responsibility. Now that there is a problem with the medicine, everyone who handles it is responsible. The kitchen is slack, so naturally it should take the greatest responsibility. Responsibility."
Liu Yun's words are not unreasonable, after all, the medicine is fried in the kitchen, and if one is held accountable, one must start from the kitchen.
"Miss, please forgive me. I really don't care about our business. The two of us took turns to take care of the decoction and never left the kitchen." The master wanted to be picky, so the servant had to accept his fate, but the two maids from Liuxianju waited on him. The old lady is not a short period of time. When the old lady was in Xiangyun Temple, they were also responsible for decocting medicine and eating meals. There was never anything wrong. Now that such a big thing happened not long after they came back, they themselves I was also uneasy.
"It's okay to ask me to spare my life, but think about it carefully, who has ever entered the kitchen?" Caressing the bracelet on her wrist with a slender hand, she said with a blank expression, "If you can tell the reason, maybe you still have to go into the kitchen?" There is a way to survive, otherwise, if you can’t find the reason, then you have to consider yourself unlucky.”
For the young lady's way of interrogating without arranging cards, Lin has some criticisms, but she is not good in front of so many servants, she is too disrespectful to Liu Yun, after all, she is the eldest daughter of the Mu family , the status is honorable, and it was the master himself who told her to exercise.
"Miss, please forgive me. We have served the old lady for more than two years and we have never made a mistake. Aunt Bai Su can testify for us. We are definitely not lazy. Miss must believe us." Very wronged.
"It's true that no one has ever entered the kitchen?" Liu Yun narrowed his eyes and asked with a faint smile.
"Really not..." The girl who spoke suddenly closed her mouth, as if she suddenly remembered something, and said in a daze, "I remembered that there was an old woman who came to the kitchen that day and said she was here to deliver snow ginseng, but she came in to put down her things. Just left without stopping any longer."
"That's right, this servant also remembers this person. At that time, the servant still thought to herself that the old lady would put some snow ginseng in her soup every day. The doctor said it was used to invigorate Qi, but someone came to deliver it a few days ago. It's all over." The other girl also nodded, and then murmured, "Most of the servants in the mansion these days are familiar, but this old woman is very unfamiliar, but at that time the old lady was waiting for the decoction. , the servant did not think much about it."
Lin's eyes narrowed slightly, shooting a dangerous light, silently waiting for Liu Yun's next words.
"Can you recognize her?" Liu Yun asked.
"It's good for the servant to make a note. If I see you again, I will definitely recognize it." The girl replied affirmatively.
This time, Liu Yun respected Mrs. Lin very much, turned his head and said to her, "Auntie, do you want to gather all the old women together and let these two little girls come and recognize you?"
"That's good." Mrs. Lin was already on the verge of riding a tiger, so she ordered her servants to gather all the old women in the mansion outside the door, and asked the two to identify them.
It's just very strange, there are more than a dozen old women who came, but none of them were the ones who went to Liuxianju that day.
"Did you make up an unfounded person in order to exonerate yourself?" Mrs. Lin looked at them displeasedly and warned, "I think you are bullying the old lady because she is easy-going. , It's really lawless. Come on, take these two girls down and beat them until they tell the truth."
"Madam is wronged. It is true that an old lady came here. What we said is true." The two girls kowtowed in fright.
"Wait a minute." Bai Su appeared suddenly, walked in slowly, and blessed Liu Yun, "Missy is here too."
"Aunt Bai Su came just in time. These two girls said they saw an old woman go to the kitchen, but they couldn't recognize her." Liu Yun stepped forward to help Bai Su to sit down. Bai Su didn't want to sit down, after all, she The manor can be regarded as a servant, but Liu Yun insisted, and she was helpless.
A light flashed in Lin's eyes. She didn't know much about Bai Su, so she was not sure about her temperament, but her position in front of the old lady was unshakable, so she was more careful when speaking.
"These two girls are full of lies, and they can't recognize anyone. I am thinking about how to punish them. Our Mu family does not allow servants who lie like this." Lin's words are very good, and also She is implying that Bai Su should not meddle in other people's business, she is now disciplining the servants of the Mu Mansion, if Bai Su is aware of current affairs, she will not intervene.
However, if Bai Su is wise and safe, then he is not Bai Su.
"Have all the old ladies called here? I have seen the mother who is in charge of the second lady a few days ago, so it seems that she didn't come?" After the words fell, Lin's face turned ugly.
Of course, what she doesn't know is that Liu Yun is not interested in knowing who poisoned the old lady. After all, with the old lady's shrewdness, she probably knows it already, and she doesn't need to be this bad person. She just wants to Take this opportunity to get to know the servants in the mansion deeply, and also plan how to install her people.
