Reborn Marquis's Wife
Chapter 55: Trying to cover up the obvious
"Yes, I thought I missed someone." Liu Yun turned around and shouted toward the door, "Go and call all the old ladies from Nanyuan."
These words were naturally an instruction to the servants she had brought with her, and the servants followed the order and left.
Mrs. Lin jumped up, "Ms. Bai, are you suspicious of me? Could it be that someone from me drugged the old lady? It makes no sense."
I don't know if it was Bai Su's pair of eyes that could see through people's hearts that made Lin feel uncontrollably flustered. She actually said such guilt-ridden words.
"The Second Madam has misunderstood. This slave is just a servant. How dare you doubt the Second Madam? I just followed the old lady's wishes and came here to have a look. I have absolutely no other intentions." Bai Su clarified the relationship and spoke very sincerely.
"That's very good." Since it was the old lady's intention, Lin couldn't say anything more and had to think of how to change the topic.
But before she could think of how to change the topic, the two girls kneeling on the ground started screaming. It turned out that the old ladies from Nanyuan had brought them.
"That's her, that's her." The little girl pointed at one of the old ladies and said excitedly, "That's her. She came to our kitchen and gave her some snow ginseng. Yes, that's her."
Such a straightforward accusation made the old woman's face turn pale, and Ms. Lin was also shocked. This old woman was the mother in charge of Nanyuan. Ms. Lin trusted her quite a bit, but she didn't expect that she would make such a mistake.
.
"Mother Lu, on the day when the old lady was drugged, did you go to the kitchen of Liuxianju to deliver snow ginseng? Did you give the old lady the medicine?" Liu Yun narrowed his eyes, half-smiling.
"Miss, this old slave has been wronged..." Mother Lu is a sensible person. She just saw Liuyun's maid and two guards going to Nanyuan to take care of someone, so she knew for sure that she was afraid that she had gone to the kitchen before.
Being shaken out, she quickly knelt on the ground and defended, "I did go to the kitchen, but I just went to deliver the snow ginseng and left immediately after delivering it. I didn't stay long."
It seems that this old woman is also a clear mirror in her heart. Liu Yun glanced at Mrs. Lin, and saw her pretending to be calm and couldn't help but smile in his heart. Even if she is let off the hook this time, in the hearts of the master and the old lady, I am afraid that she will never be punished again.
Can't turn over.
"Who asked you to deliver snow ginseng?" Liu Yun stared at her aggressively.
"Yes... someone was sent from the old lady's yard to inform her that the old lady's snow ginseng was about to be used up. She asked people to buy more quickly. The second lady was busy outside, and the old slave was afraid of delaying the old lady's medicine, so he sent Nanyuan
The snow ginseng in the warehouse was sent over first." Mother Lu answered in an orderly manner, not looking like a lie at all.
However, whether she is lying or not is not important at all.
"Nonsense. When our old lady has something to do, she will always send someone to find Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper. Where will she find the second lady? Don't confuse the situation." Bai Su retorted coldly. This is the truth. Uncle Zhong, the housekeeper, has been in Mu Mansion for many years.
, he was the housekeeper when the old lady first got married. When the old lady had something to do, she would naturally go to someone she trusted. What's more, in her heart, she had never regarded Mrs. Lin as the mistress of the family, so she would naturally not go to her.
To do business.
"Humph, you are such a good mother Lu. Grandma has always treated you well. If grandma hadn't relented, you thought you could join our Mu Mansion as an errand based on your status. Later, she transferred you to Nanyuan as the head of the house. Mom, you
You are so heartless." Liu Yun slammed the table, pointed at her nose angrily, and cursed, "Okay, you said someone asked you to deliver it, who it is, you should tell me who it is.
.”
"This..." The old woman wanted to say something else, but she opened her mouth as if she suddenly realized something and was speechless.
At this time, Mother Lu finally had some taste. If someone deliberately designed it, how could she leave any clues to it? Even if she searched the whole house, she might not be able to find anyone.
At this time, Uncle Zhong suddenly brought someone in and handed a piece of paper to Liu Yun. After Liu Yun saw it, he immediately became furious and said, "Come here, drag this wolf-hearted thing down and kill him with a stick.
If you dare to murder your master, this will be your fate."
"Yun'er..." Mrs. Lin suddenly stood up, but Liu Yun glanced at her coldly, "If I were Aunt Lin, I'd better not ask for mercy at this time, otherwise my father and grandmother would misunderstand.
Oh no."
This was a threat and a warning from **luo. Mrs. Lin didn't know what was written on the note in Liu Yun's hand, but she also guessed that it was some strong evidence. She felt uneasy in her heart, and she didn't know what was written on the note in Liu Yun's hand.
Got a clue.
Seeing Lin's hesitation, Liu Yun continued, "That's the end of the matter. Mother Lu has ulterior motives and has nothing to do with killing the old lady. It has nothing to do with anyone else. If I find out who is behind my back in the future, I will not take it lightly."
Rao."
"Yes." The servants present lowered their heads and responded respectfully.
Everyone knew who they were covering up for. The eldest lady hurriedly killed the person with a stick, probably because she did not want to cause trouble. Mother Lu is from Nanyuan and a confidant of the second lady. If her actions are to be investigated
, I’m afraid the second lady is also to blame.
Miss, you are thinking of the second wife.
"Aunt Lin, is there anything wrong with what I'm doing?" Liu Yun looked at Mrs. Lin, his bright eyes filled with sparkle. This was to express his stance against Mrs. Lin, and also to give her a chance to protect herself wisely.
Mrs. Lin clenched her fists. Now that the matter was over, it would be of no use if she said anything more. She could only nodded and forced a smile, "Miss, she has grown up and has become much more prudent in her work."
Bai Su said nothing, his eyes flickering between Liu Yun and Lin. He secretly admired the eldest lady's vigorous and resolute actions, which caught Lin off guard.
"And you two, please pay more attention to the small kitchen in the future and don't let random people in. The old lady's body is the most important thing at the moment. If something like this happens again in the future, I won't care whether it is your responsibility or not.
Liu Yun looked at the two little girls on the ground and said seriously.
"Yes, thank you, miss." The two of them were full of gratitude to Liu Yun. If the miss hadn't intervened, they might not have survived today.
"Okay, that's it, Aunt Lin, you can handle the rest by yourself. Aunt Bai Su and I will go to see grandma together." After saying that, Liu Yun supported Bai Su and headed to Liuxianju.
After finishing the matter, Mrs. Lin returned to Nanyuan. Mrs. Liang, who had a good relationship with Mrs. Lu, stepped forward. Seeing Mrs. Lin in a daze, she made her a cup of tea, "There is no resurrection, Madam, don't worry too much."
, take care of your body.”
Lin didn't have many confidants. Apart from Ning Xiang and Mama Lu, there were only a few left. This Mama Liang had always kept a low profile, and no one knew that she was also one of Lin's confidants.
"Has the housekeeper been to Nanyuan just now?" She raised her eyes and asked.
"Well, the housekeeper took the nurse to search Mother Lu's room, but then the slave girl took the girl in to look at it. It seems that nothing was taken." She was also puzzled by this point.
"That note..." An idea flashed, and Mrs. Lin looked up suddenly. She had already thought of what the piece of paper was. It was the old lady's prescription that she had ordered someone to secretly copy.
Mother Liang also roughly knew what it was, she frowned and said worriedly, "Does the eldest lady think... Madam instigated it?"
No matter how you look at it, the eldest lady seems to be standing next to the second lady. Otherwise, why would she kill the person with a stick so violently? Isn't it clear that Mother Lu is going to take the blame? But this cover-up will make people misunderstand the eldest lady's presence.
Are you covering up the second wife's crimes?
"You really can't steal the chicken but lose the rice." Mrs. Lin sighed. She wanted to use this incident to frame Ms. Xia, but she didn't expect to frame Ms. Xia. Instead, she made herself smelly. Although Mother Lu died, but
After all, she is from Nanyuan, and I am afraid that this shit basin will eventually be held on Nanyuan's body.
"Second Madam, there is no need to worry. Now that there is no evidence of death, Mother Lu has also been beaten to death. Let her just let this matter go." Although it is too heartless to say such a thing, there is nothing we can do about it.
"It's just a pity, Mother Lu..." Mrs. Lin sighed and slowly closed her eyes.
