Chapter 212 Aunt Hua is going to offer incense

"Okay, let's go in quickly. It's windy, so be careful not to catch a cold." Granny Liu felt distressed seeing Li Yu's lost look.

"Well, let's go back." Li Yu asked Granny Liu with concern as she walked back, "Is grandma still in good spirits today?"

"Don't worry, I'm fine. I eat ginseng, deer antler, and donkey-hide gelatin every day. There's no reason for it." Granny Liu is very happy when she thinks that Sister Yu sends her various precious supplements every day, not because Those things, but for her filial piety.

Back then, Granny Liu had no desire to survive. If it weren't for Sister Yu, her old bones would have been buried in a barren hill long ago. How could she enjoy the blessings of her children and grandchildren like today!
Granny Liu thought that she didn't know what kind of virtue she had accumulated in her previous life, so God let her meet Sister Yu.So she cherishes her blessings and doesn't want to cause Sister Yu any trouble, but last time... Thinking of the last time Granny Liu went to the street, she felt annoyed. If she hadn't gone out that day, she wouldn't have met that person. Man does not see himself.

When I was turned away decades ago, I had nothing to do with that family, and I don't want to see them again in this life!Who would have thought that he would see the people from that family here!Why!
"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Is something uncomfortable?" Seeing Granny Liu's gloomy face, Li Yu was a little worried.

"There's nothing wrong with it, it's just that your godmother is a little sad to leave."

Li Yu intuitively felt that things were not as simple as Granny Liu herself said, because she had just seen complex emotions of hatred, melancholy, and heartache in her eyes.I opened my mouth and finally didn't ask any questions. Since grandma didn't want to say anything, I couldn't find anything if I asked myself. Let's find a chance to ask Xing'er later!
Li Yu sent Granny Liu back to the house, and said to Granny Liu before leaving, "Let Xing'er come with me, yesterday my master brought back a few cans of rock sugar pear cream, this spring and autumn is when it's dry, then Drinking things mixed with water is the most nourishing and moistening lungs, let Xing'er take some for grandma."

Granny Liu was eating the tea served by Xing'er, when she heard this, she looked at Li Yu lovingly and said, "Since it's a good thing, I'll send some to your mother-in-law, don't keep thinking about me, old lady."

Li Yu covered her mouth, "Grandma, don't worry, I've sent Zijuan to my mother's place."

"Then just keep it for yourselves to eat!"

"Grandma! Mine is much better!"

Xing'er interjected from the side, "Nurse, don't refuse, this is Madam's filial piety, you just accept it!"

"That's right! This is my filial piety as a granddaughter. If grandma doesn't want it, then I will be sad~" Li Yu looked at Granny Liu with a sad look, and made Granny Liu laugh.

"Okay! Alright! People will think that my old lady bullied you if they see it!"

"Hehe, how could grandma bully me! It's too late to hurt me!" Li Yu cuddled up to Granny Liu coquettishly.

Granny Liu put her arms around Li Yu and smiled, "You! You're already a mother, yet you're acting like a spoiled child! I'm not ashamed!"

"Hey! It's not grandma's pet!"

"You~"

Li Yu behaved in front of Granny Liu again for a while, teasing Granny Liu so much that she forgot what was on her mind for a while, and laughed heartily before taking Xing'er to her yard.

As soon as he walked out of Granny Liu's house, the smile on Li Yu's face gradually faded, and he frowned slightly at Xing'er and asked as he walked, "Grandma, how is she resting these days? Did you take the medicine on time?"

Xing'er was relieved to hear Li Yu's question, and Mammy asked herself not to tell Madam, but Madam asked her and she should be fine if she said so!

"Returning to Madam, these days Mammy takes the medicines on time, but the supplements Madam sent over are not enough. She also sleeps short at night, and the slaves can always see Mammy sitting alone in a daze, or sighing! "

It seems that there is really something on his mind!
"Have you noticed when it started?"

Xing'er tilted her head and thought for a while before replying, "It seems that it was not long after the second lady entered the door, yes! It's just that after the nanny and Mrs. Wei came back from the street, they were a little bit out of their minds! It should have started from that time!"

take to the streets?

"You followed?"

"Well, the maidservant is going with Mammy and Mrs. Wei, and Peach Blossom!"

"Then what did you do that day? Did you meet anyone or anything?"

Xing'er frowned and tried to recall, "That day Madam Wei said she was going to go shopping in the street to see what she needed to buy. We first went to the silk shop to buy some cotton cloth and needlework, and then went to the pastry shop to buy We had some snacks, and had lunch in a small restaurant. By the way, we finally entered a silver building. Mrs. Wei said that she would pick out some jewelry as a gift for the future daughter-in-law! But not long after arriving at the silver building, Mammy suddenly Said that she was not feeling well, and Mrs. Wei was worried about her, so we came back!"

Li Yu felt as if he had grasped the point, stopped and faced Xing'er and asked, "Think about it, did you see anyone in that silver building?"

Xing'er scratched her head, then patted her hands suddenly and said, "By the way, ma'am! When we entered, there were only a pair of very ordinary mother and daughter in the silver building besides the shopkeeper and a waiter. I want to buy some jewelry for the girl as a dowry."

"Did grandma react when she saw them?"

Xing'er shook her head and said, "No, Mammy was happily helping Mrs. Wei choose jewelry at that time! A woman came in later, and Mammy just took a look at that woman and said she was not feeling well!"

"Oh? What kind of woman?"

"Well, she is an old woman about 50 years old, wearing very ordinary coarse clothes, she is fat and looks quite smart."

"Only by herself?"

"Well, she's the only one. The servant took a step slowly, as if the woman was going to sell jewelry instead of buying jewelry!"

"Oh? Sell jewelry instead of going to the pawnshop to go to the silver shop? This is also new." Could it be that grandma knew that woman?Then what is their relationship?Since grandma avoids her, does that mean that the relationship is not very good, or is it an enemy?

"Your servant has seen the jewelry wrapped in the veil she is holding. It is a pair of pure gold bracelets, which are as wide as they are! They seem to be inlaid with precious stones!" Xing'er stretched out her hand to gesture the size of the bracelets. There are two styles.

No wonder I have to take it to the silver building. If I go to the pawnshop, the price will be greatly reduced, but in contrast, this bracelet may not be able to be taken back.

But these are not the key point, the key point is how can a woman wearing coarse clothes have such an expensive bracelet?Did you sell it for your master?Or was it stolen?Uh, after thinking about it, Li Yu realized that he had strayed off topic. What he was thinking about now was what was the relationship between that woman and grandma.

"What's the name of that silver building?"

"Yaxuan Silver Building!"

Nodding his head, Li Yu didn't ask any more questions, took Xing'er back to the house, took two cans of rock sugar pear cream, and let her go back.

"Lian'er? Come here."

As soon as Li Yu called Lian'er, she put down her work and walked in from the side room.

"What's the matter, miss?"

"Go to the Yaxuan Silver Building, and find out who that woman is and where she lives, who sold a pair of two-finger wide inlaid ruby ​​and red gold bracelets there about ten days ago."

Although I don't know why Li Yu asked me to investigate this matter, but as long as Li Yu ordered it, Lian Er would definitely go back and do it.

"Yes, miss, I'll go right away!"

"Well, let's go!"

Lian'er tidied up and left the mansion to inquire about that person. She went out with her front foot, and Zijuan walked in with her back foot.Zijuan walked to Li Yu's side and saluted, then looked at her.

"What's the matter? Just say what you have to say."

"Return to Madam, just now Qiu Tong sent word that Aunt Hua is going to go to Qingshui nunnery outside the city to offer incense tomorrow."

Li Yu put down the melon seeds in his hand and looked at Zijuan seriously, "Qingshui Temple?"

"Well, this servant has inquired about it. Qingshui nunnery is a nunnery outside the city, and the incense is not strong!"

nunnery?Instead of going to a temple with a lot of incense, go to a nunnery with less incense to offer incense?This thing is a bit strange!

"Can Qiutong go with me tomorrow?"

Zijuan shook her head, "I heard from Qiutong that Aunt Tianhua only took the jade flute with her."

With only one personal maid?Still a little suspicious!Nunnery—Taoist nun—Ma Daopo—the art of disgusting victory!Li Yu suddenly clenched his fists, thinking of the weird smile on Aunt Hua's mouth when he was dizzy and uncomfortable at Qiushui that day, Li Yu felt that he was the truth!

But the question remains, if the person who cast the spell is Aunt Hua, what is the motive?Why are there only four people, mother and child, without Lin Yu?Also, Aunt Hua couldn't have buried the thing herself, so who was it?
It's still necessary to confirm whether Aunt Hua did it or not!
"Zicuckoo, go and prepare, we will also go to Qingshui Temple tomorrow!"

"Ma'am? Shall we go too?"

"Well, follow me to see what Aunt Hua is doing!"

"But, isn't it easy for us to be exposed just like this? I have inquired about it, and there are very few people going there. If you go there in a carriage, you will be discovered easily!"

Li Yu was silent, and what he said was true, if Aunt Hua really had something to do with the Taoist girl there, wouldn't it be a surprise to go by herself?
"What is Yu'er thinking about?" Just as Li Yu was worried, Lin Yu came in from the outside, saw her frowning and asked what happened.

"Master is back! Zijuan, go down first."

"Yes, ma'am."

Lin Yu sat next to Li Yu and put her half in his arms, watching her and waiting for her to answer the question just now.

Li Yu didn't hide anything, and told him the whole thing from the beginning to the end, and also told him that he wanted to follow Aunt Hua.

"I'll let someone do the stalking. It's too easy for you to expose." Although Lin Yu's voice didn't change, there was a cold light in his eyes. He really didn't expect that this matter would have something to do with her.
