Chapter 42

Yulu and Yunwu in the room heard Shuyuan's voice and rushed out together. When they saw Shuyuan, the two girls almost knelt on the ground, their four eyes turned red, tears were about to roll out.

Seeing the frightened appearance of the two girls, and then looking back at Mrs. Wei beside her, Shu Yuan suddenly understood why the most useful person around her mother was not her close girl: the daughter-in-law and mother-in-law are older I have experienced a lot, and I will not panic when things happen.

"Did someone come in?" Shu Yuan stepped into the room, and what she saw was Lan lying motionless on the bed; it didn't look scary, if it wasn't for the foam around her mouth, she would look as innocent as if she was asleep. two.

There was nothing suspicious in the room, there was a jug and cups on the table, it seemed that Lan and the girls drank water from the same jug.

Yunwu is much better than Yulu: "No one has ever been here. Since Aunt Lan came, I was accompanied by the servant girl to talk in this room. During the time, Aunt Lan said that she was a little tired a few times, and the servant girl really didn't see where there was something wrong." Something's wrong."

After all, Shu Yuan is not from the government, even if she entered the room, she couldn't see anything, so she turned around and retreated; standing at the door, she took a deep breath, and the cool air reached deep into her chest, making her feel cold. Feeling a lot more comfortable: "Did she say anything?"

"No, she just said some miscellaneous things." Yunwu stepped forward to help Shuyuan's arm, but her arm trembled violently; where did she come to help Shuyuan, it was more like hanging on Shuyuan's body: "There is no sentence It's useful, it's all about the fabric of our dresses, what kind of good patterns are there now."

Shuyuan glanced at the other room nearby: "Where is Mrs. Huang—?" She was worried that something would happen to Mrs. Huang.

"Ms. He is watching over there. Mrs. Huang has been asleep for a long time. We went to see her just now and she is doing well. She is still a little unhappy that we woke her up." Yunwu looked at Shuyuan after answering: "Ms. Lan vomited At that time, she seemed to have something to say, but no one could hear her voice clearly."

Shuyuan looked at Yunwu: "Are you sure what she wants to say?"

"Yes, girl." Yulu was finally able to speak: "The servant girl and Yunwu guarded her together. Originally, the maidservant guarded her in the middle of the night, so she fell asleep after switching with Yunwu; but she was awakened just as soon as she fell asleep. , and what I saw was Aunt Lan staring at her big eyes, opening her mouth very hard, changing her voice a few times but still unable to let us hear what she was saying clearly."

Shuyuan sighed when she heard this, and heard a noise from the courtyard gate, looked up and found Jin Chengye rushing over.

Seeing Shuyuan, Jin Chengye scolded Yulu and the others in a hurry: "Why are you serving, and you still don't help your young lady to go to the room. It's so late and cool, how can you let your young lady come here?" He said to Shuyuan Nodding: "Go back to your room first, I'll be there right away."

When he came to the upper room, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

"Ms. Lan is a servant girl sold by officials. Her natal family and her husband's family were originally from a scholarly family, and her husband-in-law was a third-rank official. Later, members of her husband's family and her natal family committed crimes, and all adult males were beheaded." All the women and children were enslaved and sold by the officials."

"At that time, she was bought into our home with her daughter. She has always been very honest in her work, and she was appreciated by the old lady for being knowledgeable and courteous. Later, she didn't know what she did wrong, so the old lady stopped using it. She is gone. Her daughter is already married, not someone from our family."

"Just two years ago, she begged the old lady for mercy. Her daughter married someone from outside the house, and she was still a businessman. Since then, she has been married to another country. No one knows where her daughter is. As for her, she said To repay the old lady, I stayed in the mansion as an errand."

He looked at Shuyuan: "Does this sound familiar? Although it's not exactly the same as Huang Pozi's family, all the children are no longer in the mansion, but they just stayed on as errands and didn't ask to go. Huang Pozi's place is a bit far-fetched , but Lan's is logical."

Shu Yuan looked at him: "When did you know?"

Jin Chengye Gu Shuyuan: "Don't you tolerate a grain of sand in your eyes? I found out after I left. Although you don't let me care about it, it's cheaper for me to deal with some things that you have forgotten, so I let people ask Lan's matter."

"Ms. Huang is fine. The doctor has seen it. Lan's disease is not a relapse, although she looks very similar; she died of poisoning because she ate something she shouldn't be eating. I have sent someone to report this matter to several people." Ma'am, I probably won't report to the official."

When he said this, he looked at Shuyuan: "If you report to the official, the matter will be too troublesome."

"Who would want to harm the Lan family?" Shu Yuan ignored what Jin Chengye said about reporting to the officials. Generally, slaves and maids of rich families would not report anything to the officials.

Lan's daughter was not in the mansion, and she had no other relatives alive. She came to plead guilty alone, and her crime would not make her die: under such circumstances, it was impossible for Lan to reveal the truth, because Shu Yuan had nothing to make her speak.

So why does Lan Shi have to die, why must Lan Shi die?If you don't believe Lan's words, then why is there nothing wrong with Mrs. Huang?

No matter how I think Lan's death is superfluous, if Lan admits her mistake and receives punishment, no matter whether Shu Yuan believes her words or not, as long as Lan doesn't speak up, no one can make her tell the truth: killing her will only make things worse It is even more unfavorable to the person who secretly instigated Lan and Huang Pozi.

Shuyuan believes that no matter how bad a person is, he will not do something for no reason, let alone do something that is not good for him.

Jin Chengye went over to help Shuyuan get up: "Don't think about it anymore. I will let someone clean up everything. You can sleep for a while before dawn. Don't be afraid, I will stay here forever." Seeing Shuyuan, he was furious He raised his head, and said with seven points of helplessness and three points of amusement: "Don't worry, I'll sit at the table and watch you."

On the contrary, Shuyuan was a little embarrassed by his blunt words, knowing that Jin Chengye also had good intentions; she wanted to chase him away, but seeing Jin Chengye's eyes, she had an inexplicable feeling that he would not listen to her this time, and would not listen to him no matter how much she opposed him. stay.

Shuyuan was still asleep.Maybe it was because she was too tired. Originally, she thought that Jin Chengye would not be able to fall asleep in the room, but she soon fell asleep, and she fell asleep very deeply. She didn't wake up until dawn: When did Jin Chengye leave? simply do not know.

It was Mrs. Mu's warm hand that woke her up. When she saw her mother, she put her face on her mother's hand and said, "I'll sleep for a while, just for a while." It's been a long time since she acted like a baby.

Mrs. Mu patted her with the other hand in a funny way: "How old are you?" But her tone was only pampering: "Okay, I don't want to see how high the sun is and sleep, don't sleep anymore, get up and eat something .”

Shu Yuan stretched her waist: "How old is my mother's daughter." But she knew she couldn't sleep anymore under the sunshine in the room, so she had to sit up; when she sat up, her mind became clear, and she remembered what happened last night to worry about it. Xiang mother: "Have you heard? I'm fine. Don't worry. "

Mrs. Mu stroked her daughter's head distressedly: "How can I not be worried? If you don't tell me, you think mother doesn't know? The old lady told you to move to Tingtao Garden first. It's cooler there in midsummer. My body is most afraid of the heat this summer.”

She made no mention of the dead Lan.

Shu Yuan nodded obediently.She didn't have any feelings for Cha Xiangyuan either. Last night, Mrs. Lan died here again. It would be better to move to another courtyard.

There was no need for Shuyuan to bother, Jin Chengye and Mrs. Mu were there, Tingtao Garden was quickly cleaned up, and lunch was used in Tingtao Garden.After dinner, Mrs. Mu and Master Mu went to have a rest—their husband and wife stayed in Tingtao Garden.

Jin Chengye was called away by the old lady, Shu Yuan wanted to catch up on sleep after yawning, she really didn't sleep well last night; now she sleeps a lot during the day and wants to sleep a little longer during the day, she misses her even more The bed and her pillow were gone.

As soon as she stepped into the new bedroom, she heard footsteps coming in: very urgent; could something have happened?Huang Pozi hasn't asked yet, she thought it might be better to let Huang Pozi hang out before asking, and then go to the people in Nanfu to settle the score after asking her.

She said she was going to Nanfu to pay her respects today, but she didn't forget that she deliberately didn't go to see how Nanfu would react today.

"Young Mistress," the person who came in was Yinzhen, who was out of breath looking at Shuyuan: "Miss Lu is here."

Shu Yuan blinked: "Which Miss Lu?" She had forgotten all about the past, so how could she remember Miss Lu and Miss Zhang.

Yinzhen watched Shuyuan put down the curtain and came in and twisted up the corner of her clothes: "That's the one, that girl Lu who is negotiating marriage."

"What?" Shuyuan's eyes widened, and she asked Yinzhen incredulously: "It means that you want your master to give another room to the girl from Lu's mansion who is negotiating with my second uncle?" She was It's really unbelievable, because the marriage has not been agreed yet, so there is no reason for a girl to come to the door.

Even if the Jin family and the Lu family have agreed on this marriage, the girl from the Lu family will not be able to come to the Jin family before they get married: not to mention the scholarly family of the Jin family, it is impossible for ordinary people to allow such a thing .

Yinzhen didn't raise her head but nodded vigorously: "That's Miss Lu."

Shu Yuan was a little bit dumbfounded, she really didn't feel any annoyance in her heart, she just felt incredible: Miss Lu's face is so big, do you know how to write the word shy?Just because he found out that he disagreed with her marriage with Jin Chengye, so he came to her in person?
God, although she didn't live many years, she believed that even her own mother had never encountered such a thing.

"Is she calling at the door?" Shu Yuan looked at the silver needle and asked with a smile.
