"My grandson's daughter is still young and inexperienced, so she asked my close friend Miss Wen to ask about how she would serve an elder if she were to have a family member whose heart is devoted to buddhism."

Since my grandmother had tied up Lady Wen to be her voice transmitter, I brought Miss Wen here. How could she sit down and watch her mother being used? With the help of Miss Wen, even if her grandmother wanted to take advantage of Madame Wen's efforts, she would have to consider whether or not it was possible.

Grandmother slightly raised her gaze to look at me. A light flashed in her eyes before she closed her eyes. She had a confident look on her face.

I wiped my eyes and gave my grandmother a shy smile.

"Miss Wen wrote back to say that the old woman from the Fang family's second house had coincidentally seen through the world because of the sudden death of the Second Old Master." Miss Wen replied to say that the old woman from the Fang family had coincidentally seen through the world because of the sudden death of the Second Old Master. Hearing this, Sun Daughter also felt that Miss Wen's words were very reasonable. She also thought that there were three younger brothers!

When Aunt Mo heard my words, she suddenly raised her head and looked deeply at me. Her wrist, which was holding a sweet white porcelain plate, slightly trembled.

I sneered to myself. It's too late to think of all this!

Aunt Mo thought that she would be able to get something out of the old lady before she left. If she was lucky, she might even be able to sit on the sidelines and take some of the power away from me. However, she had never thought that the person she was standing on was actually her eldest son who knew how to read books. It was already difficult for Shang Jia to become an official. If his body was tainted with spots, he might not even be able to pass the hometown examination. How would he be able to bring glory to his family?

Aunt Mo, who was originally standing close to the edge of the brick bed and in front of her grandmother, quietly took a small step away when no one was looking.

Grandmother cast a sideways glance at Aunt Mo, pursing her lips with a face full of ice and frost.

"According to our grandson's daughter, although our Yang family is not some official eunuch family, we still have our rules. It would be better to take out some silver and change your courtyard into a home temple. If you truly like peace and quiet, there is no harm in handing over all the maids in your courtyard to me. We will assuredly arrange everything properly for you, and consider it our filial piety as juniors. "

Not only would I not let her leave the house, I would also chop off her hands and feet and replace them with mine from inside out. No matter what she thought, I would be able to make her helpless.

Aunt Mo looked at me in panic. She didn't expect me to be so bold.

The cup of hot tea that was boiling just now when the red jade was in my hand didn't emit any heat at all. It was very warm, but it was exactly what I liked about it.

I smiled and sipped my tea as I admired my grandmother's changing face.

"Sigh!" Grandmother let out a long sigh, and her usual kind face returned to normal. "You're just like me when I was young."

I couldn't help smacking my lips.

Compared to Grandmother, I'm really far behind. When I was eleven or twelve years old, all I thought about was admiring the flowers and playing the zither, how could I compare to my grandmother who was acting arrogantly and unrestrainedly. I had already started to plan how I would take revenge for my mother's murder.

"It's not that Grandmother doesn't want you to see them, it's that those girls are sick, I'm afraid I'll pass it on to you!"

The benevolent grandmother slightly frowned, as if she was truly worried about the safety of the maidservants.

Sick?

I'm afraid it was contaminated by the poison you administered!

I nodded and smiled.

I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you this time!

"Hongyu, lead the little miss to take a look!" Grandmother sighed as she instructed Red Jade, who seemed to have thought of something. She immediately turned around and warned, "It's fine to just take a few glances from afar, but don't get too close. That disease must be spreading very fast!"

She had to keep a straight face even if she had to put on an act. It wasn't easy for her to act so delicately like her grandmother.

"Thank you for your concern, Grandmother. I'm sure my grandson and daughter will be careful not to get infected too."

I smiled and bowed.

Grandmother looked at me with a cheerful smile, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and in the light of the rising sun, even the fur on her face was dyed a warm gold. She looked like a kind old woman.

Hong Yu lowered her head and respectfully led me out the door.

Lan Ling was waiting in front of the door. When she saw me coming out, she hurriedly came forward to greet me. The corners of her eyes were relaxed, and she greeted me with a smile.

Red Jade silently led me through the corridor and stopped in front of the door of the east wing.

"Elder sister …"

I started to say two words, but Red Jade quickly shook her head.

"Miss, this servant has never read any books and does not understand those principles. But this servant knows, the drop of water, the spring water to repay. "This servant doesn't care what the old lady did to others, but if it wasn't for the old lady, this servant would have already been sold to the gallows. This servant will never be able to remember this favor."

I smiled and nodded. I walked around the red jade and pushed open the doors to the east wing.

Although I don't agree, I can understand what Red Jade is thinking. She had grown up in her grandmother's house. Because of her cleverness, her grandmother treated her differently than the other maids. To Grandmother, this was just a simple matter, but it had completely changed the fate of the Red Jade. Thus, it was normal for her to have thoughts of following the Red Jade for the rest of her life.

The lower the class, the more they paid attention to the word "righteousness". However, when these good qualities were in the hands of a superior, it was as if they were used as a weapon to control others. A loyal servant, a loyal servant, was simply putting on a tall hat to cover the mouths of the people who had been sacrificed.

The smarter one was, the easier it was for one to fall into these carefully crafted lies, one after another, moths to a flame, risking one's life at the cost of one's life.

"Miss!"

The room was gloomy, and when I opened the door a cloud of dust flew out. The air smelled of mildew, and it took me a long time to get used to it.

Lu Ke and Du Mom came out to welcome them, while Wen Lian and Ying'er lay on a bed with their eyes closed and their faces pale.

I was secretly shocked and couldn't help but take a few more glances at the ground.

According to common sense, if Grandmother wanted to kill them, she had to kill Lu Kui first. How could the two of them die first?

I looked at Mother Du who was holding onto me with a flattering smile on her face. Could it be that Mother Du was stalling for time by feeding the other two maidservants medicine to protect the Green Bandits?

"The two ladies were just frightened. After tossing and turning for an entire night, this servant lit a Calm Incense before falling asleep."

Mother Du supported me with a smile, calmly taking credit.

He had just fallen asleep.

I nodded with a smile. "Sorry for troubling you, Mom!" "You are an old man, of course it would be better than nothing. In the future, I still need you to count on my mother!"

Lan Lingyun quickly took out a small gold ingot that was about 50 grams and Ruyi from her purse and stuffed it into Mother Du's hands.

The 5 taels of gold ingot did not seem like a lot. It could be exchanged for at least 45 taels of gold in the Silver Building. It was not considered a small gift.

I nodded to myself. Lan Li valued the green bandit so much, that's why she took the initiative to present such a generous gift. Originally, when Lu Ping left, I was worried that Lu Kou's personality would be cool and indifferent, and Lan Li was promoted by Lu Ping. I couldn't help but think of my old friend, and if the two of them had a grudge and left each other behind, then I would be in a fire in the backyard and would be unable to take care of myself.

Fortunately, although the two maids had different personalities, they were on good terms with each other.

One must pay attention to fate between people. One cannot get along well with others just by meeting them.

With a grateful face, Mother Du held the gold ingot in her hand, and kept pushing it towards Lan Qing. "Miss, what are you doing? You're embarrassing me!"

Standing next to me, I saw a hint of a mocking smile on Mother Du's face as she held the gold ingot in her hand.

If he didn't want it, why was he holding it so tightly, as if he was afraid that Lan Li would go back on her word?

"Mother, please accept it! This is what you deserve! "

I smiled as I took a step forward and stuffed the gold ingot into Mother Du's hands. Lan Lingyun took the opportunity to take a step back to stand behind me.

He had messed around for a while, yet he still didn't see what kind of hurdle this was! Grandmother was more shrewd the older she was, like an old fairy. The people around her were all confused, doing things that people despised.

Mama Du chuckled and exchanged a few pleasantries before being carried out the door by Lan Lan. Lu Kui took the opportunity to close the window frame.

Surprisingly, there was an empty bowl on the table. There was still some medicinal juice left on the bowl.

The three of them only rewarded a bowl of medicine?

I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and secretly laugh at myself.

This is really … Then everything would be a mess!

When Grandmother was trying to stall for time, I faintly felt that Grandmother was using such a method to threaten me, but when I thought about how Hong Chang was sitting on the ground with tears all over her face and saying that Grandmother wanted to give Lu Kou a few potions, I couldn't calm down.

The green bandit is not only my right-hand man, but also my partner who has come all the way since my rebirth. If I can't even protect the people around me, what's the point of wasting my life in this world after rebirth?

"Miss, let's talk over here."

The green bandit squatted down and probed the breathing of the two maidservants who were sleeping on the ground. Then, he turned around and helped me into the inner room.

When I pushed the door open, a gust of gray smoke rushed in, making both me and Lu Kou cough. Lu Kou quickly fished out a handkerchief and held it in front of me. The kang was full of junk, and there was a big black mica box on the floor. It had been a long time since anyone had cleaned it up, and there were gray wool hanging from the holes in the kang.

The Rex hurriedly wiped his sleeve on a large box near the corner of the room and helped me sit down.

I insisted on pulling her to my side. Green Bull shook his head and pointed at the two maidservants on the ground.

This meant that she wanted to see the two maidservants.

I was secretly shocked. Wen Lian and Ying'er were originally from my courtyard. When the two of them were transferred to the family, I carefully checked their background and found out that they were both reliable children from the family. However, at this moment, the green bandits were being so cautious. Could something have gone wrong with the two of them?

Influenced by the serious expression on Green Buccaneer's face, I lowered my voice and said,

"What the hell is going on?"

Green Bull stood in front of me, glancing from time to time at the movements of the two maidservants outside, and said in a very soft voice:

"I assume Miss already knew what happened before you came here, but I will still go through it from the beginning so that you won't miss anything."

I smiled and nodded. Green Bull had always been meticulous, and ordinary people would never be able to match him.

Last night …" Green Queen cleared her throat, but her voice was still hoarse. "This servant has received Miss's order to accompany Young Master Jiayi and reflect on the matter before the spirit. Madam's spiritual body was placed in front of a pair of foot tall white wax, and it was unknown why the candle flame suddenly jumped violently. As you know, the doors of the mourning hall are made of the thickest white silk from Dingzhou. If there was such a strong wind, the people in the room would definitely be able to hear the sound of the wind and the sound of the door. This servant felt that this flame was very strange, but since she was standing at the door, arranging for some things to be brought over from the Second Young Master's courtyard, she sent Wen Lian to take a look at the candle. "Later on, the wet nurse came along with the servant to persuade Second Young Master. Before she knelt down, she suddenly let out a scream and pointed at the coffin with her eyes wide open, unable to say a word.

"This servant hastily walked over. Following the wet nurse's gaze, I saw that there was something red on the Madame's coffin." Suddenly, a large gust of wind blew open the door, scaring everyone. At that time, the house was filled with maids and maids of all sizes, and they were all in the outer court. If this were to happen, the entire street would probably be able to hear them. "But wet nurse …"

Lu Kui raised his head and looked at my expression with a troubled expression.

I nodded to her to go on.

Big Sis Milkman's wet nurse is always a little more respectable than the rest of the servants, not to mention that Green Cock clearly knows my intentions on family justice, so he can't help but feel a little apprehensive when he speaks of it.

When he thought about the Gu Clan's light and simple character, even if there was the Green Bandits in front of them, they would surely look timid. They would not say they were helping, but rather they would not cause any trouble.

Seeing that I didn't have any anger on my face, Lu Ke continued to speak: "Milkman, she seems to be scared out of her wits. I finally managed to persuade her not to speak carelessly, but Milkman, she …" The maidservants in the room were young, but the other mothers had all gone through the motions, so it was easy to tell that something was wrong with the wet nurse. Even when she was kneeling on the ground, she directly looked over here. "

"This servant asks Wen Lian and Ying'er to accompany Second Young Master, and also to watch the wet nurse not blabber nonsense. This servant would like to see for himself the coffin." The thing on the coffin … Sticky, it does smell like blood … At that time, this servant was also a little afraid, so she took a step back. Somehow, she stepped on Ying'er's foot, and Ying'er saw … The items were also startled, and imitated the servant as she stretched out her hand to touch it. The items on top of the coffin suddenly flowed down, and more and more of them began to flow down, and soon, the entire coffin started to flow down … "

Green Bull recalled as he spoke, as if he had seen that horrifying scene again. His pretty face was so pale that there wasn't even a speck of blood on it.

Sticky and reeking of blood. What else could it be other than blood?

No wonder the green bandit wanted Wen Lian and Ying'er to talk.

First, Wen Lian lit up the coffin and there was blood on it. Then, Ying'er touched the coffin and blood flowed out. Anyone would be suspicious.

According to what the Green Bandits said, the two maidservants did have a lot of suspicious points. Even when Wen Lian went to light the lamp, there was still the urge of the Green Bandits. The little bird was obviously ordered by the Green Bandits to accompany them at home, so why would it walk in front of the coffin for no reason? Moreover, a teenage girl shouldn't have been scared out of her wits by this scene. Being able to maintain her calm was already not a simple matter, so why would she take the initiative to reach out and touch it?
