Cheng's mother was stunned for a moment before she reacted, "What did Madam say about Lord Dongyue who contracted the wind cold eight years ago?" ”

Madame Bai's eyes closed slightly, and she nodded slightly.

Cheng's mother raised her eyebrows and recalled for a moment before saluting Lu Lifu, "My lord was sick once eight years ago, but he was infected with a cold, and he was not strict...... The lady was inconvenient to speak, and the old slave overstepped the rules. ”

Lu Li's jaw headed, "Mother Cheng, please speak." ”

"Eight years ago, after the Xia Yuan Festival, the adults were suddenly very busy, either in the yamen, or in the study to read the files, Mrs. persuaded the cold in the deep winter, the New Year is approaching, things can not be done, let the adults rest more, but the adults refuse to listen, Mrs. had to prepare some charcoal basins with the study, and often send some hot food to remind the adults to pay attention to keeping warm, but the adults are still sick from hard work, the wind is cold, and they are sick."

Cheng's mother thought back to the events at that time, "The adult was sick, so the lady moved the adult to the inner courtyard to recuperate, and asked the doctor to come over and see it, saying that the wind evil entered the body, a small wind and cold disease, a few doses of medicine can be recovered, not a big deal." But the adult is very unusual, very worried, and very sad. Adults often have nightmares at night, and often wake up, it is difficult to fall asleep after waking up, and always mention to his wife how to take care of the eldest young master, how to keep the family property, which shopkeeper in the shop is shrewd and loyal, what to do in the next few years, etc., and even mentioned how to mourn after death, as if explaining the aftermath......"

"Adults have always acted calmly, there has never been such a panic time, Mrs. at first also felt that something was wrong, but the adults gradually got sick, and these symptoms disappeared, Mrs. smiled and said, it can be seen that she is sick and knows that she is afraid and worried......"

"The adult's illness is repeated, and it is almost the New Year, and the situation is always like that during the period, because it is in the midst of illness, after the recovery of the fù, the lady thinks that it is just a fault, and the slave maid does not feel that there is anything wrong, Mr. Fang Cai mentioned it, and the lady remembered this time, and the slave and maid also felt that something was wrong."

Lu Li's eyebrows condensed slightly, "Before this time, someone came to visit Master Bai?" ”

"Adults are busy with official business, and they deal with a lot of things every day, and there are a lot of guests......

"Is there anything special, such as a sudden visit that hasn't been in contact for many years?"

"This ......" Cheng's mother thought for a while, her face was a little apologetic, "The slave doesn't know." ”

Lu Li looked at Mrs. Bai, and Mrs. Bai also shook her head, indicating that she really couldn't remember.

Seeing that the two of them really couldn't remember, Lu Li no longer dwelled on this issue, and asked instead, "Did Lord Bai mention anything extremely important to his wife?" ”

Madame Bai shook her head again.

Cheng's mother added, "Adults are very open between public and private, and they will never bring their affairs back to the inner house......

"In the paragraph before the accident, can there be any abnormalities in the appearance?"

Cheng's mother affirmed, "That's not true." She also deliberately looked at Mrs. Bai to confirm, and Mrs. Bai also nodded.

"Haven't you handed over anything to Madame for safekeeping?"

Madame Bai shook her head and sighed, indeed.

"Maybe the adults have other ideas, or just casually mention it, Madame's body is just right, don't think hard, if you can think about it when you look back, you can tell me if you can't think of it, and don't worry about reads if you can't think of it;." Even so, Lu Li couldn't force it, and chatted with Mrs. Bai about other things.

For example, Kashiwa-sama's usual personality and his views on accepting bribes.

Mrs. Bai wrote on Cheng's mother's hand, and Cheng's mother answered on her behalf. Bai Mingtao is a very upright official, most opposed to accepting bribes and squeezing the people's fat and ointment, but whenever there is a case in office, especially related to corruption and bribery, it must be severely punished, and he also said that spending the dirty money he got from greed will rot his hands, and he will not change his will even if he dies!

Lu Li groaned, "If you are an adult...... Secretly hid a large sum of money......"

Cheng's mother raised her eyebrows slightly, "It's impossible!" ”

After speaking, he felt that his attitude was not good, and he hurriedly saluted and asked for sin, "The slave maid lost her temper for a while, and I hope Mr. will not blame you." It's just that the relationship between my lord and wife is really very good, and the money and accounts in the family are transparent, and it is impossible for adults to hide money privately. Besides, the adult is the head of the family, and he can make decisions about anything, not to mention that he doesn't love women by nature, and it's not fun, even if he really has such a hobby, our wife is also very generous, and he will never allow it, and the adult has no reason to hide his money privately......"

Lu Li also felt that it was unusual, so he chatted with Mrs. Bai and Cheng's mother for a long time, and it was still about Master Bai.

Bai Xu sat by the side, adding from time to time.

Several people chatted for a long time, until the report came from outside, and the new Lord Yin Zhang of Xingyuan Mansion came over.

Bai Xu hurriedly stood up and went out to greet him, not wanting to just walk out of Mrs. Bai's courtyard, Master Zhang had already brought someone in.

Bai Xu was a little unhappy, "Master Zhang stayed, this is the place where my mother is recuperating, my mother is sick, I am afraid she will not be able to entertain guests." ”

This Lord Zhang was wearing a vermilion official uniform, wearing a gold and jade belt, his eyebrows were dark and heavy, and he was full of official authority. "This official is here to visit Mrs. Sister-in-law, Lord Bai is not here, and there are some handover matters that need to be explained to Mrs. Sister-in-law."

He pressed him with his official rank, and Bai Xu couldn't stop him again, so he asked people to go to the house to report the news. Not long after, Cheng's mother came over to invite her in person, "Lord Zhang is polite, and my wife is invited." ”

Master Zhang snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and walked into the room.

When I entered the room, I found that it was like Xiong Lie sending a message, and in addition to Mrs. Bai and her maid, there were three men. One of these three men is majestic and arrogant, and the other two are handsome young men, one is splendid and wealthy, and the other is next to Mrs. Bai's bed. This next to Mrs. Bai's bed is probably Lu Li on the news.

Master Zhang ignored anyone, and only gave a perfunctory salute, "Mrs. Bai is fine." This official is the newly appointed Yin of Xingyuan Mansion, because Lord Bai died in a hurry, and the affairs were not accurately handed over, so the official had to seal the study of the government and organize it carefully. The unexpected death of Lord Bai is suffocating, but the deceased is gone, and the family should send him off so that he can re-enter the reincarnation without worry, why did the official hear that the Bai family intended to investigate the cause of Lord Bai's death? ”

There was silence in the room.

Mrs. Bai was silent, Cheng's mother lowered her eyebrows, and Bai Xu was a little anxious and looked at Lu Li. Lu Li frowned slightly, he heard this big disapproval, Zhao Shu sneered coldly, his face showed disdain, Shen Wansha wanted to speak, but Lu Li shook his head to stop him.

Lord Zhang didn't wait for others to answer, so he went on and said, "Lord Bai has cleared his name all his life, and I hope that you don't do bad things with good intentions, and find out what the official doesn't know, but will there be a problem with the handover of government affairs...... A few think about it. ”

After Mr. Zhang finished speaking, no one paid attention to him, flicked his sleeves, and left coldly.

Mrs. Bai trembled angrily, this surnamed Zhang was threatening them!

Bai Xu was also a little panicked, he really wanted to find out the truth to comfort his father's spirit in the sky, but he didn't want his father's reputation to be damaged because of this matter.

The relationship between the two masters changed, and the people were naturally uneasy, Lu Li sighed lightly and comforted him, "I already have some ideas about the death of Lord Bai, but the evidence is insufficient. Now that Shangguan has stopped it, the truth can't be ignored, I'll think of a way again, don't worry, this matter is not something that can be done in a day or two......"

Mrs. Bai's mood gradually calmed down, and she held Lu Li's hand tightly, her eyes showing pleading.

Lu Li patted her hand, "Madam, don't worry, I will do my best." ”

Seeing that Mrs. Bai was about to cry again, Lu Li hurriedly found a topic to distract her attention and looked around, "The eight-treasure hairpin on the dressing table is really beautiful, gorgeous and extravagant but elegant, but what is a lady?" ”

Mrs. Bai looked over and smiled slightly.

Cheng's mother said, "I really asked you to say, last year the adult personally painted a whole set of jewelry to send to Mrs. Yu, this eight-treasure hairpin is one of them, people who have seen it say that it looks good, and it is the most worthy of our wife!" ”

Cheng Xu's eyes were also a little hot, "Father is very good to mother......"

Shen Wansha didn't speak for a long time, which would see Lu Li's intention to comfort, thinking that he was the most familiar with jewelry, so he ran over without seeing anything and picked up the eight treasure hairpins, "I'll take a look, I'll take a look-alas, it's really a good thing!" The craftsmanship of this foundation is like the craftsmanship of Master Li, and the craftsmanship of Master Li is unmatched, as well as this inlay, gilded handwriting, meticulous, without any confusion...... Tsk, such ingenious creation, there is no one else except Master Li. Li Da|It has been difficult to get out of the mountain in recent years, and it is rare in the capital! ”

Cheng's mother smiled, "This young master's good eyesight is exactly what the adults entrusted Master Li with a lot of money to create for his wife." ”

Shen Wansha looked at the Eight Treasure Hairpin carefully for a long time, and suddenly asked, "When did the Lord give this to Mrs. Yu?" ”

"Let's go to the New Year's Festival...... Cheng's mother saw that Mrs. Bai's face was getting better and better, and her praise continued.

Lu Li felt that something was wrong with Shen Wansha, although his smile was as bright and lovely as before, but when he spoke, it was obvious that others couldn't feel it, but he could see it.

What's going on......

Since Mr. Zhang came to demonstrate, he obviously got some news, and it was inconvenient for Lu Li and the others to stay here longer, and when they saw that Mrs. Bai had eased up, they asked to leave, and Cheng's mother sent her off in person.

"Where is Bai Fang now?" Lu Li thought of this person, and he didn't know if Bai Fu knew about her.

Cheng's mother's eyes flashed with a hint of fierceness, "A girl's family, she is not ashamed to do such a thing, if it weren't for the housekeeper to go in time, I'm afraid everyone would know, how dare the family indulge, and now lock her up in the house and think about it behind closed doors." ”

"Oh? What did she say herself? Lu Li's eyes flashed, how much do the people in Baifu know?

"She confessed herself, saying that she had ......an affair with a foreign man," Cheng's mother was a little ashamed, "Madame has seen a private meeting between men and women in the hospital...... I'm afraid it's Sister Fang. Her man was dark, probably afraid of being exposed, so he attacked his wife...... I learned about this a few days ago, and I didn't tell my husband in time, it's really an ugly ......."

It seems that Bai Fang did not explain a qiē.

Lu Li's smile didn't reach the bottom of his eyes, "It's okay, my mother doesn't need to worry about ......"

He will definitely make Bai Fang understand that any evil thing will have to pay a price. Tricks
