Looking at Xue Huasheng's back running away, Xue Zhiyuan's originally loose eyes suddenly shrank together, his fingers lightly tapped the bookcase, and after pondering for a while, he finally called his personal servant Tongfu.

Tongfu lowered his eyebrows and said respectfully, "Does the master have any orders?" ”

"Has there been any change on the eldest lady's side lately?" Xue Zhiyuan looked at Tongfu fixedly and asked.

Tongfu frowned, shook his head and said, "No, the eldest lady is still the same as usual, in addition to practicing calligraphy and embroidery every day, she goes to the garden to paint, and there is no change." ”

After a pause, he hissed and said, "If there is really any abnormality, the eldest lady seems to have gotten close to the girl of the Mu family recently, but you also know this, aren't you still eating barbecue with that girl today?" ”

Xue Zhiyuan coughed dryly, not wanting to listen to those who had or not.

But he always felt that his sister was hiding something from him, so could this key not be in the person who recruited his daughter Mu Yan?

Xue Zhiyuan pondered for a long time, and finally pinched his chin and said, "Send Zhao Yong to check the details of this Mu Yan, including her biological parents and family, all of them will be checked for me, and nothing is missed, remember, be fast, and never let the eldest lady have any notice, if any feet are exposed, you and Zhao Yong will not have to come to see me in the future......"

Tongfu twisted his eyebrows slightly, and quickly nodded in agreement, "Yes." ”

"Where's the second master?" Xue Zhiyuan's eyelids moved slightly, and he glanced out the window.

The second master in his mouth is his second brother Xue Zhining, although he goes in and out with him every day, but after so many years, he has never been able to understand his younger brother.

Maybe his mother died too early, he always felt insecure, and he wanted to see everyone and everything around him thoroughly to understand it, so that he could feel at ease.

But Xue Zhining couldn't see through it.

Tongfu shook his head, "There is no change, the second master's diet and daily life are synchronized with you, and he has never been out of the house alone these days." ”

Xue Zhiyuan nodded slightly, waved his hand and said, "It's okay, you go down first, and I have to do the things I explain to you quickly." ”

Tongfu responded, "Yes", and silently withdrew.

Xue Zhiyuan exhaled deeply, leaned on the Taishi chair and closed his eyes.

In the eyes of others, he is the eldest son of the Marquis of Pingyang, with a transcendent status, and he should have a bright future in the future, but only he knows that his position is actually precarious and not so bright.

's father remarried, and his stepmother has been favored by himself for so many years, and he, the eldest son who has no mother, actually hasn't received much attention at all.

My father devoted all his efforts to his third and fourth brothers......

Therefore, he had to plan everything as early as possible.

Xue Zhiyuan rubbed his eyebrows and exhaled, and when he opened his eyes again, his expression returned to calm and composed......

…………

There is also another person who feels depressed, and that person is Lin Shi who is sitting on the Xiaoxiang couch of Yilan Courtyard.

Lin leaned on the couch, and his eyebrows were lonely.

Why did she have such a sense of affection for that Mu Yan?

She couldn't figure it out.

The hot tea on the small red clay stove is still boiling.

Lin Shi suddenly said in a puzzled tone, "Mama Yao, when I gave birth to a child, do you remember any characteristics of that child?" ”

Mama Yao has been serving the Lin family for more than 20 years, and it can be said that she has watched the Lin family grow up with her own eyes.

She also saw the relationship between Lin and Lan Zhengfeng back then, and later Lin became pregnant, which was the first she discovered.

Knowing that she was pregnant, Lin didn't dare to let her parents know, for fear that her parents would reward her with a bowl of fetal slippery pills to make the child in her belly slip off.

was able to give birth to that child back then, and Mama Yao had a great credit.

Later, when the incident happened, the second elder of the Lin family originally wanted to beat Mama Yao to death with a stick, but it was the Lin family who protected her with death to save Mama Yao's life.

But one of Yao's legs was also disabled because of this, and she walked with a limp.

For so many years, Mama Yao has been following the Lin family, as if she has become a part of the Lin family, and the Lin family will discuss with Mama Yao if there is anything, and there has never been a secret between the two.

Mama Yao took a cup of tea and poured tea for the Lin family, and when the Lin family suddenly asked about the child's situation, she couldn't help frowning and said, "Didn't Madame just see Miss Biao a few days ago?" How? Thinking about it again? ”

Mama Yao thought that Lin was thinking about the child, she raised her eyes and looked around, and whispered, "If you really miss the child, why don't you let Miss Biao come over in a few days?" ”

Lin shook her head, her brow furrowing and not knowing how to say what had happened today.

She knew that she shouldn't doubt her child, but Mu Yan's impression on her was so shocking that she had to think about it more.

"No, that's not what I meant......" Lin bent his wrist slightly, his fingers drew circles on the couch, and said in a low voice, "Do you remember when I gave birth to a child?" Remember if there were any special marks on my child's body? "I was so tired after giving birth that I fell asleep, and when I woke up, the baby was already in my mother's hands, and I didn't even have time to take a good look at the child......"

Mama Yao's eyes moved slightly, and she probably heard something from Lin's words, so she asked cautiously, "Don't you think...... Felt...... Miss Cousin is not your biological child? ”

As soon as the words came out, Mama Yao felt that she was too bold again, and hurriedly laughed dryly and said, "There will be no such thing, how can Miss Biao not be your child, if she is not, then who will be?" Besides, how could the Lin family support a bloodless child? The old lady can't be mistaken. ”

Mama Yao felt that it might be that the Lin family was under too much pressure, so she took hot tea and whispered, "You probably haven't rested because of the things that are preparing for the concubine's birthday in the past few days, right?" When the concubine's birthday is over, you can rest for a few days, and you won't be thinking nonsense. ”

People are most likely to have demons when they are tired.

"Is it because you're too tired?" Lin Shi got up and took a sip of hot tea with a teacup, but Mu Yan's face kept flashing in front of him, and he couldn't shake it at all.

It's like falling into a strange circle.

She said uneasily, "Do you know that my mother sent her child there in the first place?" ”

Mama Yao's eyes shrank and shook her head in embarrassment, "This matter was handled by the old lady back then, and there are not many people who know the inside story, and the slave and maid have no way of knowing!" ”

"Really?" Lin Shi took a deep breath and pondered for a long time, "Mama Yao, only you can do this thing, you can help me check it out, where did my mother send the child back then?" Also, help me check the details of Mu Yan, you must check it clearly......"
