Chapter 141
"Let him go!" Shen Qingzi didn't know what the dumb servant in the middle of the night was doing here, but since she belonged to Mrs. Shen, she naturally couldn't treat him badly.

The dumb servant was babbling and gesticulating, and took out a pile of unknown objects from his bosom, and bumped into Shen Qingzi.

Shen Qingzi frowned, what is he going to do? "Qiuyue, hold the lamp!" Shen Qingzi ordered, thinking that there would be no reason for nothing.

Qiuyue hurriedly went in and brought a candle, and in the dumb servant's hands were some medicine residues mixed with mud, Shen Qingzi frowned tightly, what was she trying to explain?
"Yeah~!" Seeing Shen Qingzi's incomprehensible look, the dumb servant even waved his hands a little anxiously.

"Mute Uncle, don't rush, take your time!" Qiuyue has been serving the old man for a long time, and she knows a thing or two about the dumb servant's gestures, but now the dumb servant is a little flustered, so she doesn't understand.

Shen Qingzi looked at the dumb servant, and then looked outside the courtyard. She felt a little suspicious, so she said: "Qiuyue, lead me into the house, dumb uncle, tell me slowly if you have something to say."

After entering the front hall, Shen Qingzi asked Qiuyue to ask the dumb servant slowly, watched the dumb servant gesture, and watched Qiuyue answer. Gradually, she understood what the dumb servant wanted to express, and her complexion became even more gloomy.

"Miss!" Qiuyue was a little lost, she never thought that the dumb servant was going to talk about this matter.The dumb servant said he was surprised to see the dead grass in the yard, but when he dug up the soil, it turned out to be medicine dregs.He suspected that the old man's illness was getting worse because someone tampered with the medicine. "This is how to do?"

Shen Qingzi's complexion was very gloomy, the old man was ill, and she also specially told Nanny Zhuang, could it be possible for someone to prescribe it?She asked Lin Yan to find a piece of cloth to wrap the medicine dregs mixed with soil.The old man is gone, so what should the people in Qinghui Garden do. "Mute Uncle, do you have any relatives?" Shen Qingzi asked.

"Miss, the dumb uncle has always been alone. He has been in the Shen family since he was rescued by the old master when he was young." Qiuyue replied on behalf of the dumb servant.

If what the dumb servant suspects is true, then sooner or later the person who prescribed the drug will do something to those around the old man. "Mute uncle, grandpa is gone, do you want to go back to Qinghui Garden?"

There were tears in the dumb servant's muddy eyes, and he was also a little frustrated. The old man was gone, and he really had nowhere to go.

"I'll take you to a place, would you like to go? Someone will take care of you, and usually there are old people and children with you." Shen Qingzi asked.She can't keep so many people around her, and more people will become a weakness for others to deal with her.

The dumb servant was a little dazed, as if she didn't know what to say, so it was Qiuyue who said, "Uncle dumb, Miss is for your own good."

"If what you are worried about is true, then I will definitely find the murderer for grandpa, but who will decide for me in my family?" Shen Qingzi said quietly, "Mute uncle, if grandpa is gone, there will be no one to protect him." It’s over to you, what should we do if something happens!”

The dumb servant nodded, and said as Shen Qingzi arranged.

"Qiuyue, fetch 1000 taels of silver for me!" Shen Qingzi ordered.

Qiuyue was a little surprised, 1000 taels was not a small amount, but she went inside to get it anyway.

The silver ticket was not for the dumb servant, Shen Qingzi handed the silver ticket to Kong Yue, and said, "Send the dumb servant to Ci'an Hall, you know what to do."

Kong Yue nodded, and only asked, "Are you going now?"

"Mute Uncle, do you have anything else to take?" Shen Qingzi asked, she was also afraid of long nights and dreams.

The dumb man shook his head. He didn't have anything of his own, so he had nothing to worry about when the old man left.

There were fewer guards tonight than in the past, Kong Yue took the dumb servant and left by the back door, and also took away the medicine residue, Shen Qingzi wanted her to give it to Ji Wuye.

The Fang family told the Shen family that the marriage would be postponed, but no one said anything, so Fang Ze had no objection, since the elders in the other's family passed away, naturally they had to observe filial piety.But Mrs. Zhang has always had no idea, and what others say is what they say, and this matter was settled, so that within a few days, it was spread all over Beijing.

Once Mrs. Shen left, the whereabouts of the people in his yard was also a problem. Mammy Zhao was an old man in the family. Once this old man left, her heart became cold. It was the son and daughter-in-law from the country who took them back. I paid Mrs. Zhao a sum of money, and I was grateful to Mrs. Zhao for taking good care of Mrs. Shen, but on the day of leaving, I asked a lot, including who would be around Mrs. Shen for decoction on weekdays.

Old Mrs. Shen's bodyguard went to Shen Chaohua's side, and the maid named Yinzhu went to Mrs. Shen's side. The dumb servant didn't care at all, and the others disappeared.The entire Qinghui Garden was empty. Shen Qingzi didn't know what other people thought, but she had the feeling that someone was leaving the tea cold. Even though the tea was still warm, no one wanted to drink it anymore.She let Kong Yue and Lin Yan stare at Yinyue separately, thinking that the people around the old man are reliable, but now that she thinks about it, it may not be so.In the end, Ji Wuye came back with news that a few plants that shouldn't be added to the medicine are not poisonous, but they become poisonous if added to the medicine.Could it be that silver bead made of it?Shen Qingzi also asked Qiuyue about Yinzhu, Yinzhu was about the same age as Qiuyue, but when the old man assigned Qiuyue to her instead of Yinzhu, there was still a problem after thinking about it.

For the first seven days of the old man's life, Yinzhu was in the house safely, but when she got up in the middle of the night, she felt cold. When she opened her eyes, she was really shocked. Why did she go back to Qinghui Garden?The cold bluestone made her feel chills all over her body, and she sneezed several times. She was wearing pajamas when she slept.

There was a white shadow floating in front of her eyes, Yinzhu exclaimed in shock, she fell to the ground again as soon as she stood up, and said in a low voice like a broken thought: "Grandpa, let me go, it's not me, it's really not me!" I!"

"Give me back my life~" The low and misty words seemed to be floating in the wind, making Yinzhu tremble all over, she knelt on the ground and kowtowed her head: "Old man, the doctor said you won't live this year, slave, slave It was forced."

"Give me back my life~" Without too many words, Yinzhu heard this sentence in her ears, and felt the chill behind her, as if the soul of the old man was beside her.

"It's the madam, it's the second young lady, the old man, I really have nothing to do with the slave, the slave is a child of the family, and you have nowhere to go after you leave! Madam said that as long as the slave does this, the slave will not be sold. The slave is really There is no way out~" Yinzhu was so frightened that she lost her mind, and said a long paragraph without defense.

The cold wind is gone, and the sad words are gone, only Yinzhu in her pajamas is shivering in the night wind...

It has been ten days since Fang Zhuoyun came back. Knowing that Mrs. Shen had left, and knowing that the Shen family had postponed their marriage, he rushed to the Shen's house with a face full of hardships as soon as he returned home.

When Shen Qingzi saw him, she was a little surprised. What happened to Fang Zhuoyun, who had a blue chin and stubble, and a weathered and haggard face? "Zhuo Yun, what's wrong with you?" Shen Qingzi frowned and asked.

Fang Zhuoyun hugged Shen Qingzi tightly, he had just settled Qing Ruo's affairs, and he exhausted the two horses day and night.As soon as he got home, he knew about this matter, which made him feel as if he had lost something.Seeing Shen Qingzi dressed in plain white, he felt her helplessness even more, and in such a hurry, he hugged Shen Qingzi tightly.

"Zhuo Yun, you hurt me!" Shen Qingzi could smell the smell on Fang Zhuoyun's body, she wrinkled her nose and said.

"Qingzi, I'm sorry!" He knew that the marriage was postponed, he knew the situation of the Shen family, how helpless Shen Qingzi would be without Mrs. Shen, but at those times, he was not there, unexpectedly not.He blamed himself a little, and when he thought that Shen Qingzi might be bullied and threatened, his heart ached.Let go of Shen Qingzi, hold Shen Qingzi's shoulders, look up and down repeatedly, no matter what he thinks that Shen Qingzi is thinner, he said: "I'm sorry, Qingzi, I shouldn't have left."

"You have your reasons for leaving, I don't blame you!" Shen Qingzi knew that Fang Zhuoyun was doing it for Fang Qingruo's affairs, and since he didn't say anything, she didn't want to ask.

"I'm sorry, I wasn't by your side when you needed me, Qingzi, it's okay, it's only a year, I will wait for you, and I will never change my mind for you." Fang Zhuoyun said resolutely.

Shen Qingzi said slightly worried: "Zhuo Yun, do you know how many people are waiting to see my jokes? I am already at such an age, and they think that a year can change a lot of things. But this is the one that loves me the most. My grandpa, I am willing to keep my filial piety for him." Shen Qingzi said with a bit of sadness, her tone was bitter.

"Qingzi, don't worry, whether it's one year or ten years, my heart for you will not change. I also respect the old Hou Ye. His passing away is really unfortunate. In his heart, I am already his grandson-in-law. Just treat me as a filial piety with you!" Fang Zhuoyun said, his tone was also firm.

Shen Qingzi looked at the haggard Fang Zhuoyun, and said with a look of emotion: "Thank you, Zhuo Yun!"

"Fool, why bother to say thank you!" Fang Zhuoyun sighed, he looked at Sujing around, the most sad person in the whole Shen family is probably Qingzi! "If Qing Ruo is as considerate as you, I don't need to run this trip." Fang Zhuoyun felt a little emotional, if he didn't leave the city, he would be by Shen Qingzi's side who needed him most.

"Did something happen to Qing Ruo?" Shen Qingzi asked, as if she had changed the topic.

"Don't mention it, Qing Ruo is simply too bold. I always thought that she finally accepted her fate and was willing to marry Xiao Chenye. Who knew that this girl had already planned to flee privately on Wanwan Lingnan Road." Fang Zhuoyun was very helpless. Said.

Shen Qingzi was a little surprised, but when she thought about it, she was somewhat expected. The Fang Qingruo she knew was indeed not someone who would accept her fate so easily.

"It's only now that I know that Xiao Chenye really likes Qing Ruo, and he's been pampering Qing Ruo all the time. It's not the first time that Qing Ruo wanted to run away. She was stopped by Xiao Chenye before, but she never changed her mind." Fang Zhuoyun continued, "Xiao Chenye didn't I didn't want my dad and I to know that it was Yun Chen who sent the letter back without authorization."

"Then what about the end?" Shen Qingzi asked puzzled.

"If Qing Ruo thought he had succeeded, he ran to the nearest town by himself. In fact, Xiao Chenye had been secretly protecting him. In order to save Qing Ruo, Xiao Chenye was injured. Qing Ruo had seen Xiao Chenye's sincerity, so he stayed behind. , and everyone is happy." Fang Zhuoyun said, if it wasn't for this, he wouldn't be able to come back with peace of mind. "Yunchen will escort Qing Ruo to Lingnan and come back again. I hope Qing Ruo can live a happy life from now on."

Xiao Chenye would be the best if Fang Qing was sincere. "Yes, Zhuo Yun, if Qing is so kind and beautiful, she will have a good life." Shen Qingzi said sincerely.

"I hope we can too." Fang Zhuoyun looked at Shen Qingzi and said, in the end, as if he also smelled the peculiar smell on his body, he hurriedly left as if he had realized something in vain, and went home to tidy up.
