Chapter 123

Yao Yao smiled slightly, but shook her head and left without answering.

Seeing this, He Xiaolian hurriedly followed, even brazenly following.

At the gate, just as Yao Yao stepped out of the house, two guards at the gate quickly spread their hands and stopped He Xiaolian inside the house.

He Xiaolian blinked and yelled loudly, "Ma'am, the Hou Fu ordered me..."

Yao Yao turned her head and stared at her coldly, and interrupted her, "I don't care what Master Hou ordered you, I will just tell you. The Hou Mansion can't lock you up, but it can stop you! As long as you step out of the gate of the Hou Mansion halfway Step, if you want to enter this gate again, there will be no way!"

"what?"

Yao Yao sneered, "Get out of the way if you stop her from doing anything, Master Hou ordered, you can't restrain her."

"Yes!" Sure enough, the guards lowered their long arms and made way for them.

He Xiaolian looked at the door aggrieved, but had no choice but to put his feet back.

She didn't ground her, but she grounded her in disguise!And she was grounded willingly.

Yao Yao laughed three times, "Miss He, don't use chicken feathers as arrows in front of me from now on. Don't call me sister and sister, I never plan to be a sister with you, and I don't think you are worthy of being my sister. Remember , call me Mrs. Hou. Also, Lord Hou said that he wants you to come to pay his respects every day, so he should act like he is paying his respects. Every morning, he will kneel outside my courtyard and wait for me to get up to offer tea. If he can’t do that, then don’t come to pay his respects. , who will treat you if you don’t say hello without sincerity?”

"You!" He Xiaolian turned pale with anger, "Master Hou takes care of me, but you treat me so harshly, aren't you afraid that Master Hou will blame you?"

"Harsh treatment? Is it harsh treatment to ask you to call me my wife? Is it harsh treatment if you don't want you to come over to greet me? Giving you your freedom, I can't help but feel sorry for you, is it also harsh treatment?"

"This--"

"I give you something good, you accept it when you see it, if you are not greedy, you can't solve it with a few slaps!"

Leaving aside the cruel words, Yao Yao turned around and left.

He Xiaolian's face turned green with anger, he glanced at the maid beside him, and kicked her hastily, "I can't get out, you just watch her!"

"Ah I?"

"I must get something out of her, otherwise I will be sorry for how much Hou Ye valued me. Why are you still standing there? Go!"

He Xiaolian rudely pushed the maid out of the door.

Yao Yao went to the market to buy a lot of things and packed a whole car.

With money in your pocket, you can feel comfortable when shopping.Sure enough, a woman still can't live on her husband's family money alone.

Just as Ling Yu carried a basket of fruit into the carriage, he caught a glimpse of a man out of the corner of his eye and shouted, "Young Master Jiang!"

Yao Yao heard it, and followed the trend, and she saw Jiang Renlong.

Jiang Renlong hurried over and said politely, "Mrs. Hou."

Yao Yao smiled and asked, "I was waiting for you at the mansion yesterday, why didn't I see you coming?"

"Didn't you go out yesterday! I ran away."

"Ah..." He just went out for a short while, and was caught by such a coincidence?
Jiang Renlong looked left and right, and always felt that his expression was a little nervous, "Madam, let's go to the teahouse and have a chat while drinking."

"Well, that's fine!"

He Xiaolian's maid saw Yao Yao and Jiang Renlong going to the teahouse with her own eyes. She couldn't get too close, or she would be discovered, so she could only peek under the teahouse. Coincidentally, the two were sitting next to the attic. You can see them at a glance, but you can't hear the content of their conversation.

The maid hid in the dark and kept peeping.

Yao Yao asked softly, "I asked about your mother that day, and you said you didn't know much about it, but you want to tell me another secret, what is it?"

"Madam, please wait. I have notified Mr. Jin, and he will come right away."

"Who is Master Jin?" Yao Yao asked curiously.

"Master Jin is a little miracle doctor from the same township as a lower official. After the teacher died of illness, I stayed at Master's house. He raised me, and I also call him foster father."

As soon as the words fell, a white-haired old man came over.

Yao Yao stood up and replied, "Hello, old sir."

"Xiaomin kowtowed to Mrs. Hou."

"Sir, please sit down!"

After Jin Fuzi sat down, he took out a Bai Juan from his pocket, unfolded it and spread it in front of Yao Yao.

There were three silver needles inside Baijuan, more than half of which were dyed black.

"Ma'am, I'll cut to the chase. This is after your grandfather died of illness, Aaron secretly took me to do an autopsy on your grandfather's silver needles. One throat, one stomach, and one abdomen. All three were tainted with black gas! "

Yao Yao understood what he meant as soon as she heard it, "Sir, you mean my grandpa was poisoned to death?"

Master Jin nodded, "Yes."

Yao Yao shifted her gaze to Jiang Renlong, "You were..."

"Xiaguan was young at the time, just over ten years old, so it's not serious. But I vaguely felt that the teacher's condition was different. Every time he coughed, the blood he coughed up was black. I always suspected that he was poisoned, but there was no evidence. Back then, I advised Master to see a doctor, but he refused to go because he didn’t care about his condition, or was he willing to sacrifice for someone because he knew someone was going to kill him?”

Yao Yao pondered for a long time, and always felt that things were a little scary.

"What about me? I always thought that I inherited my grandfather's tuberculosis. If he had a cough caused by poisoning, then the imperial physician diagnosed me with poisoning in all likelihood?"

Jin Fuzi narrowed his eyes and said, "Madam, do you mind if I let the old man take your pulse?"

"Okay!" Yao Yao stretched out her wrist.

Jin Fuzi stroked his beard, thought for a moment and said, "Is it because I am not deep enough? It feels like being poisoned, but it doesn't feel like it."

"I have recuperated in the Hou Mansion for a long time, and my symptoms are much lighter than before."

"It's possible that the poison has been detoxified a lot, so the old man can't get it out."

She didn't figure it out when she was a mother, and she didn't expect that her grandfather's death would bring so many questions.I really worry about her!
Both her grandfather and her were secretly poisoned and murdered. I really can't figure it out. Who is it that has such a deep hatred with their family?
The poison she was suffering from must have been a chronic poison taken in Yao Mansion for a long time.If you want to investigate, you can only go back to Yao Mansion to investigate.

After thinking for a while, Yao Yao said to Mrs. Jin, "I'm going back to my mother's house later. Sir, pretend to be my old slave and come with me back to my mother's house. Help me explore my house, where was someone tampered with?"

"can."

Yao Yao took a bag of silver ingots from Meng Tao again and handed them to Jiang Renlong, "Take these silver to help me give alms, and find out if there is a better beggar king. Help me find out the news secretly, who did my grandpa offend back then? And what happened to my mother."

"Okay. Tomorrow, I will be on duty in the palace. Things may be slowed down a bit. Madam, please don't be too impatient. I've been suppressing this matter for 20 years, so I'm afraid that it will startle the snake!"

Yao Yao let out a long sigh of regret, "It's a pity I didn't know you earlier."

Jiang Renlong smiled wryly, "What's the use of getting to know me earlier? You were a girl, and you were still young at that time. I can't entrust such a heavy secret to a little girl!"

"Then why did you decide to tell me now?"

Jiang Renlong smiled happily, "Because I think you are very similar to your mother, with wisdom buried in your eyes. After a quick glance, I feel that you are worthy of my entrustment, madam."

Yao Yao smiled in relief, thanking him for his protection and notification.
