Chapter 29
Li Zhaozhao thought that the fifth aunt might have been born in a family of incense powder, otherwise how could she have this book with her when she got lost, but before aunt could teach her, she was killed.

The rain started to cover the footsteps behind her. Mother He waited for a moment before walking forward, "Mom, it's time for dinner."

"Why didn't mom tell me earlier?"

Mother He looked at Li Chaochao's straight back, felt sore in her heart, and knelt on the ground with a plop, "It's all the old slave's fault, but at that time the girl was taken to Xinlan Garden, and the eldest lady asked me to go out of the garden. There was nothing I could do about it." Seeing you, not to mention that you were still young at that time, this old slave really couldn't bear to tell you the truth."

Li Chaochao sighed for no reason, because of himself who was young at the time, and also because of himself who only knew the truth at this time, even if he was blind in his previous life, had a miscarriage, and died in the wilderness, at the moment of rebirth, he never thought of doing it for himself. To take revenge, she only wanted to live a new life wantonly, but according to what Mother He said, Fifth Yiniang was less than a month pregnant at the time, and before she had time to tell anyone, she died after drinking a bowl of soup.

She didn't ask who the poisoner was, and she didn't need to ask, and Mother He didn't have any evidence, but they guessed it was the same person.

Li Chaochao's hands gradually tightened, and he seemed to mutter to himself: "I will inherit Auntie's mantle."

"This old slave believes that Fifth Auntie will be happy if she is still alive." Mother He wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"I will avenge her revenge."

Mother He was taken aback for a moment, and immediately understood what the fifth girl wanted to do, and kowtowed to the ground, "Girl, don't..."

Li Chaochao turned around abruptly, and took a few steps forward to help Mama He up on the ground, "Since ancient times, debts have been repaid, and murders have been paid for, not to mention that there is a baby in the aunt's belly. This is a dead body and two lives!"

Mother He was choked up by Li Chaochao's words, "I didn't tell the girl before because I was worried that after you knew the truth, the eldest lady would use the same tricks to harm you. If you have any problems, the old slave will have no face to see the fifth aunt gone."

"Mom, I understand that the eldest lady looks kind and kind, but she is actually the most poisonous like a snake." Li Chaochao looked at the gloomy sky in the distance, his black eyes burst like ice marks, and sternness shot out, "Since she is not benevolent, she is the most poisonous." Don't blame me for being cruel!"

After dinner, the eldest lady brought Fu's mother and the eldest maid Chunyang to Shangyuantang. As usual, every tenth day of the Li family, the shopkeeper of the shop would come to pay the bill. Slowly handing over the account book, "Ma'am."

Chunyang took it and placed it by the lady's hand, but Mrs. Cao didn't even look at it, but just tapped with her fingers to make a clicking sound, which made Guanshi Tian sweat coldly as if urging her to die.

"Are you struggling to make ends meet again?"

"Yes, but..." Steward Tian wiped off his cold sweat, "It's not just our powder shop, even the Lan family is losing money this month."

"Oh?" The lady raised her eyelids, as if she had given him a great gift, and gave him a glance, "What's going on?"

"I sent someone to inquire, and I heard that Su Ji recently came to a mysterious incense powder empress. Since the incense powder concocted by her, all the wives and ladies in Zhenjiang have gone to her."

"Miss Xiangfen?" Hearing these four words, the eldest lady subconsciously squinted her eyes, "What's the origin?"

"This... this can't be found out. I heard that only the owner of Su Ji knows. The shopkeeper and the assistant at their incense powder shop have never seen it."

"Playing tricks!" The lady glared impatiently at the person opposite, "Our incense powder shop has been in business for many years, and we can't even win a fight with a small Su Ji. I don't think you should do something like this!"

After explaining everything, Fu's mother helped the eldest lady back to Xinlanyuan. She waited until Chunyuan left after serving tea, and then said: "Eldest lady, Chunxi violated a taboo, even Chunxiao was kicked out. Do you want to promote two of the second-class maids?"

The lady slowly blew on the tea leaves floating on the glass of water, and frowned, "This year's Sichuan tea is a bit earlier, but it's not mature enough."

She raised her hand to splash the water on the ground, and pressed the teacup hard, "Don't you think it's strange?"

"Ma'am, do you mean those two maids are still Xiangfen?"

"Heh, how could Xiaowu's tricks be hidden from my eyes? No matter who killed Chunxi, it was a girl anyway. I think that Xiangfen empress is a bit strange."

Fu's mother lowered her eyes, she knew what the eldest lady was wondering, "It can't be Fifth Auntie's, that matter was handled cleanly back then."

"It doesn't make people worry about that bitch's death."

The eldest lady was upset, and waved her hand impatiently, "Leave the matter of promoting the eldest maid to mother."

In the early morning of the second day, Aunt Liu entered the room and saw that the eldest lady's complexion was not good, so she served her more carefully, not daring to make any mistakes. Before she finished washing, someone called "Master" outside.

Seeing Li Yongzhuo walking in with a sullen face, the eldest lady asked in surprise, "Where did the master come from?"

She knew that the old man didn't go home to sleep last night, and ran to Xinlan Garden early in the morning, looking like he was holding fire to seek bad luck.

"I had a drink with the master of the Lan family last night, and the eldest son-in-law was also here." As for where he went after drinking, Li Yongzhuo didn't say anything. Are you going to Lan's house? But before I even opened my mouth, they blocked the conversation, saying that their family is not blessed to take care of Xiao Wu! What's going on here?"

The eldest lady was also taken aback, "Xiao Wu met the eldest uncle in private?"

"Look at how you teach your daughter! Since she can't do it, send it to someone else. Anyway, there are Xiuniang and Si Niangzi."

"Fourth lady can't do it!" The eldest lady refused straight away.

"No? You think you can't do it if you say no! The fourth lady is going to be named, if you want to keep the marriage of the Lan family, you must do this! If you have no choice, just make the decision like this!"

Li Yongzhuo walked away in resentment. Before leaving, he looked at Aunt Liu twice more, and was caught by the eldest lady. She just got angry, and when she saw that the old man had also left, she stepped forward and slapped her, "You are a bitch." .”

Xu felt that a slap was not enough to relieve her anger. Seeing Aunt Liu's grievance with her head bowed, and holding back her tears to prevent them from falling, the lady became even more angry and grabbed the silver hairpin in her hair. He poked hard on the back of her hand, and kept cursing in his mouth: "You are so vile, you dare to flirt with me in front of me, if the old man really loves you, why would you let me handle it, just don't do it!" Daydreaming! If you have restless thoughts all day long, I won't sell you out!"

The sharp weapon pierced Aunt Liu's rough hand, and soon condensed into bright red blood drops, which dripped to the ground. Biting his lower lip desperately, he forced himself to force back the tears, not a single drop would fall, otherwise the end would be even worse.
