It was getting dark, and the courtyard was quiet, and the two corpses were lying there, which couldn't help but make people feel cold.

The atmosphere was too depressing, and it was even more uncomfortable not to speak, Mrs. Liang turned around and asked impatiently, "Have you informed Master and Yu'er?" Why haven't you come back yet? ”

"Madame, don't worry, the master has a party tonight, the eldest young master only went out in the middle of the afternoon, and it will take some time to find them. Or...... Madam, let's go back first, and wait for the master and the eldest young master to come back? ”

It was really unfortunate to stay with the dead, Mrs. Liang stood up and asked Gui Fang and Gui Xiang to stay and watch, and she took Xiao Xia's hand to leave.

Before going out, the door of the courtyard suddenly creaked and slowly opened.

Everyone was so frightened that their hearts rose to their throats, their eyes stared at the courtyard gate without blinking, Xiaoxue grabbed Mrs. Liang's arm tightly, and Mrs. Liang herself was no better.

A figure came in from outside the door, raised his eyes and swept around: "Madam, are you also there?" ”

Mrs. Liang saw the appearance of the person who came, and it turned out to be Gui Ying, she was so frightened that she covered her chest and breathed a sigh of relief: "You girl, why don't you knock on the door if you want to come in?" Scared to death? ”

Gui Ying said apologetically: "Madame, forgive me, I heard that it was quiet inside, and I thought that Madame and Miss were gone, so I was reckless!" ”

"Alas, forget it, you don't serve Jing'er and his wife well in the courtyard, what are you doing here?"

Gui Ying turned around, and after listening to the sound of wheeling, the wheelchair stopped outside the threshold, "Mother! ”

Mrs. Liang was startled and walked over quickly: "Jing'er, why are you here?" Your injuries haven't healed yet, why don't you go back and lie down quickly? ”

"It's okay, mother, I heard that something happened here, and my eldest brother and father are not here, so I came over to take a look." Liang Chenjing was carried into the threshold by Gui Ying and Gui Lan. Slowly push in.

As he spoke, his gaze slowly swept around, and when he met Xiao Xia's eyes, he paused slightly, and there seemed to be a small flame jumping under his eyes, and Xiao Xia's heart inexplicably beat faster with the puff.

But before she could see clearly, Liang Chenjing deliberately turned her eyes away, looked at Mrs. Liang and spoke, and refused to look at Xiao Xia again. This made Xiao Xia feel inexplicably lost.

"Mother. Where are the dead? Who is it? ”

"Oh, inside, there are two rough women. Listening to the little maid, they fell asleep and fell asleep and disappeared, and I don't know what's going on? Just now, Imperial Physician Liu came to see it, but he didn't see anything. We asked us to come to the autopsy, but this thing ...... I want to wait for your father and eldest brother to come back and discuss it. ”

Mrs. Liang pointed to the two corpses a few steps away and explained.

Guilan uncovered the white cloth on the deceased's body for easy inspection. Liang Chenjing and Gui Ying Guilan both carefully examined the corpses, Liang Chenjing frowned and was silent, and Mrs. Liang looked at it bably: "Jing'er, do you see some clues?" ”

"These two are in good health. You shouldn't die suddenly for no reason. ”

"I know that, but they don't look like poisoned, why the hell?"

Liang Chenjing raised his eyes to look at Gui Ying and Gui Lan: "What do you think?" ”

The two looked at each other. Gui Yingfu was blessed: "Second young master, there are no external injuries on these two people. Even the bruises are very rare, and the slave and maid are short-sighted and can't see the reason. ”

Guilan said: "Second young master, the slave and maid are good at using hidden weapons, but there is no shadow of hidden weapons in the acupoints on these two people, and the slave and maid can't see the reason, please mention it to the second young master." ”

Liang Chenjing half-squinted at the corners of her mother-in-law's mouth: "Pry open their mouths and take a look." ”

Gui Ying pulled out the silver hairpin, and then Gui Lan's help pry open the mouth of a deceased, an unpleasant stench came to the face, the two covered their mouths and noses and fanned them, Gui Ying's silver hairpin probed in for a while and then pulled out, and found that the silver hairpin turned black!

Gui Ying exclaimed: "They died of poisoning, but why did their complexion turn pale instead of blue or black?" ”

Liang Chenjing was silent, and then he heard a hurried call outside the door: "Husband, where are you?" Husband? ”

This was obviously Su Linglong's voice, she soon appeared at the gate of the courtyard, leaned on the door frame and looked in, and tears flashed in her eyes when she saw Liang Chenjing.

She walked in quickly, and said angrily, "Husband, what's the matter with you?" Running around before the injury is healed, and going out without saying a word, scares me, you know? ”

Su Linglong knelt in front of the wheelchair, put his head on Liang Chenjing's lap and complained: "Even if we quarreled two days ago, you can't treat me like this, I know it's wrong, can't you?" Isn't it okay if I don't get angry again? Husband, don't leave me, I'm afraid! ”

Su Linglong's voice was quite sad and gentle, and she felt pity when she heard it, Liang Chenjing also softened, and gently put one hand on her head: "No, don't worry, I just don't worry about my mother and sister, and insist that Gui Ying Guilan take me over to have a look." ”

Su Linglong propped up his head and said with tears in his eyes: "Husband, you promise me that you will take me wherever you go in the future, even if you can't bring me, you have to sue me, otherwise I will be worried, I will be afraid, you know?" ”

"Okay, I will!"

The appearance of these two people makes Xiao Xia feel different from you in her heart, for some reason, she intuitively felt that Su Linglong was deliberate, she deliberately showed her husband and wife love with Liang Chenjing in front of her, as if she was swearing sovereignty, Liang Chenjing was hers, let me not worry about it?

Well, I won't worry about it for a while, but if you don't treat him in the slightest, I'll get him back sooner or later.

Mrs. Liang couldn't stand it anymore, and said lightly: "You husband and wife should go back, you don't have to worry about it here." ”

Su Linglong raised his head, as if he had just seen Mrs. Liang and Yu Xiaoxia, and stood up with a red face: "Mother, I'm sorry, I forgot to salute you!" Sister Natsu is good. ”

"Forget it, no need, something just happened here, you guys go back!"

"Something?" Su Linglong turned his head to look around, and when he saw the two corpses on the ground, he screamed loudly in fright, and suddenly pounced on Liang Chenjing, knocking Liang Chenjing into a grinning pain.

Looking at Liang Chenjing's distorted and gasping appearance, Xiao Xia felt that the wound was like being on her body, which made her heart tremble.

She didn't know where she got the strength, so she suddenly rushed out and lifted Su Linglong away, and pushed her, causing the back of her head to hit the edge of the door.

It happened so suddenly, and everyone in the courtyard was stunned.

Su Linglong, who was in pain, suddenly felt a strong hatred in his heart, this slut dared to do something to me. She rushed forward without hesitation, slapped her hands twice, and reached out to grab Xiao Xia's hair.

And Xiao Xia, who was also shocked by his amazing move, didn't notice Su Linglong's movements, and received these two slaps, seeing that he was going to be unlucky, fortunately, Gui Ying, who was nearby, quickly stepped out to hold Su Linglong's wrist.

Su Linglong was furious: "I'm your master? Or is she your master? It's clear that she did it first, how dare you stop me? ”

Mrs. Liang reacted. Hurriedly pulled Xiao Xia behind him: "Okay, okay." What are you doing here? It's not over here, and you're making trouble for me again, both of you are the masters of the house, what are you talking about? ”

Su Linglong was extremely angry. clenched her fists and reddened: "It's clear that she made the first move, why should you accuse me?" ”

"Xiao Xia pushed away because you were afraid that you would tear Jing'er's wound, even if she pushed you wrong, you slapped her twice. Why is it all flattened, what do you care? Get out! Jing'er. You go too. ”

Su Linglong's chest rose and fell sharply in anger, and she glared at Yu Xiaoxia viciously: "My husband, I can do whatever I want, even if I hurt him and open his wounds, it's none of your business, you give me less nosy." If you provoke my husband again, it's useless to protect you no matter who protects you, we'll see. Hum! ”

Su Linglong stomped his foot angrily, couldn't squeeze in and pushed Liang Chenjing's wheelchair and walked out. Seeing her reckless actions, Mrs. Liang was also afraid that she would hurt Liang Chenjing, so she instructed Gui Ying Guilan to say: "You two take care of Jing'er, if there is a slight mistake, I will ask you." ”

Gui Ying Guilan was quite embarrassed, Su Linglong was angry, now let her change hands, she will definitely not do it, but will sprinkle her anger on herself, they can only nod to Mrs. Liang and Xiao Xia, and follow Su Linglong away.

When they were far away, Mrs. Liang sighed: "What kind of sin is this, Jing'er is injured like this, she is still making a temperament, this Su Linglong, it is really getting more and more unpleasant!" ”

Xiao Xia covered her face and bowed her head silently, her face was hot and painful, it can be seen how much Su Linglong hates me, she also regrets her behavior very much, she knew that it was better to do nothing than this, this Su Linglong, her mind is becoming more and more vicious, when will she go crazy, should she start with Liang Chenjing?

At the mention of the word start, she suddenly turned her eyes to look at the two mothers-in-law, Liang Chenjing and they came and went in a hurry, which made everyone unhappy, but she gave a clue that the two mothers-in-law were poisoned and died.

Poisoning means that someone can poison it, Xiao Xia faintly feels that the death of the two mothers-in-law may have something to do with him? What did they get poisoned for?

Xiao Xia hurriedly wrote a sentence with a pen and asked Gui Fang and Gui Xiang: "Ask me, what did they eat last night?" ”

Gui Xiang immediately called the other two little maids in the courtyard for questioning, and Gui Fang hurriedly went out to the big kitchen for questioning.

After a while, the two of them replied, the two mothers-in-law used last night's dinner in the big kitchen, exactly the same as everyone else, there should be no problem, it should be what she ate after returning to the yard.

As for the food in the yard, in the past, every time Xiaoxia ate leftover meals, they would be given a few hot and one hot to eat.

But last night, Xiao Xia had a good appetite and ate a lot, and the rest was eaten by Gui Fang and Gui Xiang, and it was not distributed to the mother-in-law and the little maid, so it is impossible that Xiao Xia has a problem with eating.

The rest of the food is only dried fruit snacks and the like, I went to Miao Dandan yard after dinner last night, and I don't remember that there was a snack and dried fruits and the like! Could it be that the mothers-in-law found the food themselves?

When Xiao Xia was really thinking hard, Liang Guogong and Liang Chenyu walked into the door quickly.

As soon as Liang Guogong entered the door, he asked, "What's the matter?" How could such a thing happen on a happy day? ”

Liang Guogong's words were obviously reproachful, and Mrs. Liang was quite embarrassed: "This ...... It happened suddenly, and the concubine didn't know why. Master, Yu'er, take a look! ”

The two of them looked around the corpse like Liang Chenjing, and asked all the things they had asked before, and both of them looked suspicious: "This person is not like poisoning, is there any external injury, how can this be?" ”

Mrs. Liang said: "Oh, master, Jing'er has just come, Gui Ying used a silver hairpin to probe her mother-in-law's throat, the silver hairpin turned black, Jing'er said that these two people should not eat it." ”

"Really?" Liang Guogong also took Mrs. Liang's silver hairpin to try it himself, and it turned black.

Liang Guogong was a little annoyed: "My Liang Mansion will even have this kind of poisoning and murder, this matter must not be let go lightly, investigate!" Be sure to find out the real culprit! ”

Mrs. Liang hesitated: "Master, this ...... If you really want to check, don't you ask for it? When he came, he alarmed the government, and I'm afraid that this matter will spread out, isn't it okay? ”

Liang Guogong hesitated slightly, went over to discuss a few words with Liang Chenyu, and then asked the two little servants to come in and carry the body away, and turned around and said, "Madam, you don't care about this matter, Yu'er and I will deal with it." ”

Although Mrs. Liang wanted to ask, Liang Guogong had already spoken, and she swallowed it back when the words came to her mouth.

Seeing this little guy carrying the corpse away, Mrs. Liang was worried, and turned around and said: "Xiao Xia, this yard is not clean, you don't live here, follow me tonight for one night, and arrange a yard for your mother tomorrow, how about it?" ”

Xiao Xia had this intention, she thanked Mrs. Liang with her blessing, and planned to go back to the house to pack up her clothes and leave.

Because the body of the mother-in-law had been placed in that position before, Xiao Xia had some scruples, and deliberately walked back around that position, but there was a clanging sound under her feet, she looked down and saw a broken jar under her feet.

Gui Fang hurriedly bent down to pick it up: "Miss, it didn't hurt you, did it?" Really, those two mothers-in-law are lazy, and even throw broken jars everywhere......"

Gui Fang was about to throw the broken jar out, Xiao Xia felt familiar, grabbed her, and asked her to take the jar over and take a closer look, and then sniff and sniff, always feel that she had seen it somewhere?

Gui Fang Guixiang was also suspicious when she saw it, so she got close and sniffed, and Guixiang said: "It's so fragrant!" It seems to be the taste of ginseng soup. ”

"Why is the jar of ginseng soup here?"

The little girl who swept the courtyard said timidly: "Miss, two sisters, that's ...... It was put on the stove last night and burned the jar that exploded in half, and the slave maid put it in this corner and took it out together when she was going to pour the dregs, and accidentally forgot it! ”

Gui Fang poked her forehead: "Little girl, be careful next time, in case you hurt Miss, you will look good." ”

The little girl timidly said yes, took the broken jar and retreated.

Xiao Xia looked at the little girl thoughtfully for a long time, and suddenly remembered that she went to see Miao Dandan last night, and before going out, the two mothers-in-law stopped and asked if they wanted to drink ginseng soup before leaving?

No one has seen the ginseng soup since, could it be that the two mothers-in-law died because of the ginseng soup?

Xiao Xia hurriedly asked Gui Fang to get the half of the crockpot back, she took it in her hand and looked at it carefully, and she didn't know if there were any remnants of poison on the crockpot? I wonder if I can find out?

But...... This ginseng soup was sent by Mrs. Liang, it is impossible for Mrs. Liang to harm herself, Miao Dandan has also drunk it, it's okay, it means that the person who boiled the ginseng soup is fine, that is, the person who sent the ginseng soup has a problem?

I heard Gui Fang say that the person who delivered the ginseng soup last night was also a third-class little maid next to Mrs. Liang, and they were all born in the house, so there should be no problem, could it be that someone did something wrong halfway?

As soon as she thought of this possibility, Su Linglong's face jumped like in her mind, her resentful eyes and red eyes explained a lot of problems, if there was really someone in this mansion who hated herself and wanted to die, it would definitely be Su Linglong. (To be continued.) )
