C5 Body unknown

The servant girl Yu Yan who was standing beside Madam Hua saw Shui Qingyan walking over with her sharp eyes. When she confirmed that the person who came was Shui Qingyan, she immediately went forward and bowed: "Yu Yan greets Fourth Young Miss."

"Did Aunt Erzu rest?" Shui Qingyan looked at Yu Yan.

Before Yu Yan could reply, a mama came out from the door: "Is that the Fourth Miss?" The one who walked out was the most capable Senior Servant Qiu beside Madam Hua.

Shui Qingyan looked at Senior Servant Qiu and slowly said: "I heard that Aunt Erzu is extremely worried about me. If Aunt Erzu is able to rest, I will come again tomorrow to say my goodbyes."

Senior Servant Qiu looked at Shui Qingyan from head to toe, seeing that Shui Qingyan was not really injured, she heaved a sigh of relief: "Heaven bless Fourth Miss, although she is fine, I think the two old ladies have just rested, Fourth Miss, please come back tomorrow."

Shui Qingyan did not point it out and nodded: "I will come over to greet you tomorrow morning." Finishing her words, she turned around and left.

Senior Servant Qiu was slightly shocked, she never thought that the Fourth Miss would not rashly barge in this time. She was still thinking that if she could not stop the Fourth Miss, she would let her in, and in the end the Fourth Miss calmly left.

Thinking about it, the Senior Servant Qiu shook her head, "Weird, after falling off the cliff, I actually lost my temper."

Yu Yan did not understand, but she was too lazy to ask, the Fourth Miss was getting weaker and weaker inside the house, and the old master's promise to keep watch for the young mistress for three years was almost here, when the Second Aunt was taken as her principal wife, the Fourth Miss would truly be nothing.

After exiting the Chang Le Yard, Shui Qingyan followed the route in her memory and went to the safety courtyard, Shui Qingcheng's courtyard.

Before even entering the courtyard, Shui Qingyan heard waves of suppressed weeping.

There was no one in the yard as he walked in. He could only hear people talking in the house.

"The young miss has had a hard time, now that young master hasn't come to take a look, he probably got entangled by the Aunt Wang."

"How can Young Master be so kind? What do you mean by being entangled by Aunt Wang? In my opinion, Young Master doesn't want to come."

"No matter what, Eldest Miss is still pregnant with Young Master's child, and it's still gone. How could Young Master be so heartless?"

"No matter how vicious she is, she can't be as ruthless as the fourth miss. If it wasn't for the fourth miss, how could the eldest miss have ended up like this!"

"Little Gouzi, don't say anything. Don't forget where we are."

Shui Qingyan naturally heard everything that was said clearly in the living room. What the two people in the living room were talking about, was no different from when she stood in front of the emperor to testify that Shui Qingcheng had a secret relationship with him.

Upon entering, Shui Qingyan saw Shui Qingcheng lying on the bed with his lips turned white, her eyes tightly shut. There was also the red Grandma lying beside the bed, sighing as she wiped away her tears. A maidservant also stood beside the mama. Her eyes were also red as she secretly wiped away her tears.

The two of them were the two who spoke, and the two of them were completely unaware of Shui Qingyan, who had just entered the room.

Shui Qingyan pursed her lips. In her memory, these two had been serving Shui Qingcheng since childhood. Seventh Senior Servant was Shui Qingcheng's wet nurse, and Yuan was Shui Qingcheng's most caring servant. These two were Shui Qingcheng's trusted aides.

As she thought about it, Shui Qingyan walked forward a few more steps. Only then did Seventh Senior Servant and Yuan realize that someone had entered the room, and when they saw that it was Shui Qingyan, they did not have much of a reaction. When Yuan went to make tea, the Seventh Senior Servant silently retreated to the side.

Shui Qingyan stood by the bed, looked at Shui Qingcheng's sleeping face, and frowned. "How long has it been unconscious?"

"I haven't woken up since I came down from the mountain." Once Seventh Senior Servant said this, she couldn't help but cover her mouth with tears. The eldest young miss had twins in her womb, gone just like that. Moreover, she would never be able to conceive again. How was the eldest young miss going to live on like this in the future?!

When Shui Qingyan heard this, he frowned. Holding up Shui Qingcheng's wrist, her pulse felt extremely weak, but she shouldn't stay unconscious for such a long period of time.

Shui Qingyan walked to the side of the table and sat down, her index finger tapped on the table for a while with a very steady rhythm. The Seventh Senior Servant and Yuan unknowingly heard the words in their hearts and the grief in their hearts slowly dissipated.

"When we were going up the mountain, what did Big Sis eat? What did she bring with her? Why did she only bring you two when she went back home?" Shui Qingyan looked at Seventh Senior Servant.

Because Shui Qingyan had colluded with the Madam Hu to frame Shui Qingcheng before, both the Seventh Senior Servant and Yuan did not like Shui Qingyan, but since Shui Qingyan was the noble miss, the Seventh Senior Servant replied expressionlessly: "The big miss received the invitation, and only brought the two of us."

Yuan also said: "Madam has vomited quite a bit recently, so she only ate some porridge. The Lady has been wearing only a small sachets of sulphur since her pregnancy. "

Shui Qingyan frowned when she heard it, "Give me the scented sachet, and if there's clear porridge, bring it over as well."

Shui Qingyan could not be blamed for being too suspicious. She really had a feeling that this time, the time they were paying respects to Buddha was a little wrong, but she couldn't figure out where exactly it was wrong, so she could only start from Shui Qingcheng. She remembered that one of the Aunt Wang s was Madam Hu's niece.

Yuan said: "Madam, your bowl has not been washed. I will bring it over." As he spoke, he went to fetch the bowl.

Seventh Senior Servant took the scented sachet, passed the scented sachet to Shui Qingyan, and said: "This is the scented sachet that Madam usually wears."

Shui Qingyan picked up the scented sachet. She remembered that Shui Qingcheng had been bitten by snakes when he was young, so she was afraid of snakes. Looking at the embroidery, Shui Qingyan brought it up to her nose and took a whiff: Hmm? Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows in suspicion.

Seventh Senior Servant simply did not know what Shui Qingyan was doing, and turned a blind eye to her shock. In her heart, Shui Qingyan was still the same headstrong and self-righteous Fourth Miss who did everything she could to achieve her goals.

Yuan obviously had the same thoughts as Seventh Senior Servant.

Shui Qingyan naturally did not know what the two were thinking, she held the bowl up to her nose and smelled it, then used her nails to pick at the tip of her tongue to taste it, then Shui Qingyan nodded.

In the end, Shui Qingyan brought the scented sachet to the side of the table, and with a large fall, a prescription was born.

"The doctor's medicine has stopped. Press the medicine catch on the top and open the window to air." Shui Qingyan placed the prescription on the table, then left with the sulfur small sachet.

Seventh Senior Servant and Yuan looked at each other and walked to the side of the table. When they saw that Shui Qingyan wrote down the prescription, the two of them were shocked.

"What should we do?" Yuan didn't know what to do.

He then looked at Shui Qingyan, who had just walked out of the courtyard. Then, he said to Yuan: "Take the prescription to Doctor Hu first."

"Alright." Yuan nodded, he took the prescription and prepared to leave.

"Wait." The Seventh Senior Servant stopped Yuan and continued, "Don't go to Doctor Hu, go to another doctor's hall, and ask him what this medicinal formula is for. Walk to the other doctors' halls and bring the prescription that Mr. Hu gave you together."

"Alright." Yuan nodded his head.

Seventh Senior Servant sent Yuan off, walking back and forth in place. She thought back to Shui Qingyan's previous actions and thought to herself: "Tonight, Fourth Miss seems to be a little different."

Shui Qingyan walked into the darkness and shouted, "Qingmei!"

Qing Mei turned around and asked, "What do you need me for?"

"Do you know who took your pulse when Big Sis was pregnant?" Shui Qingyan asked.

"A Doctor Hu hired by the Zhang Family is working at the DeSheng Inn." Qing Mei answered.

"Doctor Hu?" Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows, "Is it a coincidence or is it a deliberate move?"

"Do you want Qingmei to go and check?" Qing Mei immediately said when she saw Shui Qingyan raise his eyebrows.

"Why didn't you check?" Shui Qingyan weighed the scented sachet in her hand, and smiled: "Not only do we need to check, we also need to do so stealthily."

When Qing Mei heard this, she spun around and disappeared.

Shui Qingyan brought the sachet closer to her nose, and after carefully smelling it, she said as if she was intoxicated: "The smell of gall bladder, is not bad."

With that, Shui Qingyan walked towards her Yi'an Yard with her hands behind her back.

"Gall, no drugs for pregnant women." The Earth Bile was inside, and the Earth Bile was extremely potent. If it was consumed directly, it would have long been a miscarriage, Shui Qingyan did not think that someone would think of putting the Earth Bile into Shui Qingcheng's sachet.

Her overthinking was indeed not wrong, at least she had discovered that someone had harmed Shui Qingcheng.

Yi'an Yard.

Shui Qingyan strode into the courtyard. At the entrance, there was a woman in her thirties anxiously walking back and forth, when she heard footsteps, she immediately looked up, and when she saw Shui Qingyan return, she immediately went to welcome him. "Miss, I heard that you fell off the cliff.

Shui Qingyan looked at the person who came before him. In his memories, that person was called Yu Niang, left behind for this body by the mother before she died. He was not restricted by the Shui Clan rules and could be considered to be one of the more independent people in the Yi'an Yard.

Shui Qingyan looked at the genuine care in Yu Niang's eyes and smiled as she shook his head: "I'm fine now, just the back of my head had been hit. When I fell down the cliff, there were some small wounds on my body.

When Yu Niang saw the smile on Shui Qingyan's face, she immediately cried. "God damn bandits, if something happens to Miss, how will Yu Niang explain it to Madam?"

"Where's the Sixth Senior Servant?" Shui Qingyan asked. Shui Qingyan remembered that within the Yi'an Yard, there was another Sixth Senior Servant wet nurse who truly cared about this body.

Shui Qingyan remembered that the husband's surname was Yin and his husband had died early. He had died less than a month ago, and later, when the Sixth Senior Servant entered the Shui’s Marion, he poured all her maternal love into Shui Qingyan.

After inheriting the memories of this body, Shui Qingyan was really looking forward to meeting the Sixth Senior Servant. To be more precise, she was really looking forward to feeling the mother's love on the Sixth Senior Servant's body.

When Yu Niang heard this, he immediately cried out. "Sixth Senior Servant, Sixth Senior Servant has gone."

Shui Qingyan's body trembled, the anticipation for the Sixth Senior Servant disappeared like smoke in thin air.

"Where is the body?" Shui Qingyan frowned, a trace of disappointment in her heart.

The Yu Niang gritted her teeth and said, "Hateful Yin family members, you actually refused to bring back the Sixth Senior Servant's corpse, the Second Aunt gave us a tael of silver to buy a straw mat for burial, and I also bought some clothes for the Sixth Senior Servant, and bought some land outside the forest. But I can't afford the coffins inside the coffin shop, Hong Hong Hua and Cui Hua went to bury the Sixth Senior Servant."

After hearing what Yu Niang had to say, a sense of anger rose up from Shui Qingyan's heart, and she coldly snorted, "What a great Yin family."

Yu Niang shook her head: "Yesterday, the Yin Family still came to Sixth Senior Servant to collect the silver. After two days, they were actually unwilling to recognize Sixth Senior Servant. It's a pity that no one is in Sixth Senior Servant's mother's house."

"Bring me to see Sixth Senior Servant." Shui Qingyan turned and walked out of the courtyard without hesitation.

The Yu Niang followed closely behind: "Miss, Hong Hong Hua and Cui Hua have already left, it's so late. You just returned, you should go and take a look tomorrow.

Shui Qingyan was expressionless, her entire body was filled with a cold and detached feeling, Sixth Senior Servant followed him? Yu Niang kept feeling that Shui Qingyan was a little different than usual. She wanted to say something, but when she came in contact with Shui Qingyan's cold side profile, she held back her words.

Sure enough, the guard at the gate stopped Shui Qingyan. "Fourth miss, where are you going this late at night?"

Shui Qingyan coldly glanced at the guard at the door: "When Madam Hu goes out, do you ask like this too?"

The guard was stunned and immediately replied, "The Second Madam is in charge of giving feedback. She is very busy and does not dare to ask too many questions."

With a "pa" sound, Shui Qingyan slapped him, lifted the corner of her lips and said coldly: "You don't know the rules, when did a concubine of Madam Hu get promoted to wife!"

The guard was stunned by Shui Qingyan's single slap, he stared blankly at Shui Qingyan, not knowing what to say. The reason why they called Madam Hu the Second Madam was to please this person who had a high possibility of becoming the Madam in the future. They did not expect that they would be caught red-handed by the Fourth Miss today.

Shui Qingyan coldly swept his eyes across the other guards and said indifferently: "I am the young miss, the one in charge of everything. Do you all want to stop me?"

The gatekeeper who was beaten up came back to his senses and his face darkened. However, when he saw Shui Qingyan's fake smile, he shut his mouth with a dark face, and then opened up a path.

"A wise man knows his place." Shui Qingyan sneered as she glanced at the guard who gave way and retracted her sneer. Her expression turned cold, and she walked out the door with large strides.

The Yu Niang behind her was already stunned. Even though the Miss was arrogant, she had never been so scary like this before.

Yu Niang brought Shui Qingyan to the forest outside the city.

"I instructed Hong Hong Hong and Cui Hua to bury Sixth Senior Servant here." Yu Niang looked at the unfamiliar tombstone in front of him, and said blankly.

's heart slowly became cold. Hong Hua and Cui Hua, even Sixth Senior Servant would dare to hit them!

"They might have thrown the Sixth Senior Servant's corpse somewhere." Shui Qingyan took a deep breath of cool air, suppressing the irritation in her heart.

"The cemetery." The Yu Niang looked at Shui Qingyan in fear, "Miss, Miss must not go to such a dirty place, Miss must not go.

"Shut up!" Shui Qingyan coldly swept her gaze at the Yu Niang.
