Mother Fang had already sent everyone else out in Cui Wanqing, and just the two of them left in the room, so she knew that she might have something to ask.

When I heard Cui Wanqing ask, it was actually Aunt Jiang beside Master Cao San, and the past was tangled, and it came to mind again.

She couldn't help but sigh heavily, "It's a long time to say this, Xiangdie, this girl was originally the son of the Ming'an Hou Mansion, and she followed our wife at the age of six, and at the age of thirteen, she was promoted to a first-class maid, specializing in jewelry, and she was very trusted by her wife." ”

"At that time, the third uncle of our family was the time when he was handsome and chic, and he was close to your mother, and your mother's yard was also diligent.

"But at that time, the third uncle's wife also took a fancy to the third uncle, and showed her feet in front of your mother, she has always been good friends with your mother, and Mrs. is the most soft-hearted, seeing that she is deeply suffering from lovesickness, she promised to help her say things in front of the third uncle."

"Later, this thing was as he wished, and the young couple of the newlywed Yan'er, if this sister went to the yard to race the maid, what would it be? So the matter of Xiangdie dragged on. ”

"Originally, before getting married, Mrs. She and Mrs. Xiangdie talked to the third uncle and wife alone once, but because there was no one around, we didn't know what she said, and the result was that Xiangdie became a dowry maid and came to Cui's house with us."

"But after Mrs. passed away, the third uncle's wife said that Mrs. gave Xiangdie to your third uncle as an aunt before she died, and Xiangdie also nodded in agreement, our old lady has always been good with your grandmother, and she will not stop it, just like that, Xiangdie followed the third uncle and wife back to the Ming'an Hou Mansion."

After Fang's mother said this, she couldn't help but sigh, recalling the past is the most sad and sad.

Cui Wanqing understood the sentimentality the most, she gently patted Fang's mother's hand, and comforted: "Don't be too sad, Mama, my mother has been dead for a long time, and I think I would have been reborn in a good family a long time ago, and now I am enjoying happiness, so I don't need you to be so sad." ”

Mother Fang smiled bitterly and shook her head, "Did you see Xiangdie today and think there was something wrong?" She took Cui Wanqing's hand and asked very curiously.

Cui Wanqing frowned and said, "I don't think it's quite right, Mama, think about it, when my mother gave birth to me, she said these things?" ”

Mother Fang sighed softly, "Good child, when you were born, Mrs. She didn't go, and the slave maid took you out with you at that time, so that the old lady and the lady were not in the house, so I didn't hear Mrs. herself talk about it." ”

"Who else is in that house? I think there should be a lot of people, are there any who have not left in front of their parents from beginning to end? Cui Wanqing continued to ask, but the doubts in her heart became bigger and bigger.

Mother Fang listened to her question so carefully, stood up suddenly, and asked in a gaffe: "My Emperor Bodhisattva, my young lady, you are, you shouldn't be suspicious?"

"Mama is silent." Cui Wanqing stood up suddenly, covered Fang's mother's mouth, and persuaded softly: "My good mother, calm down, yes or no, we all have to ask clearly, right?" In the past, I was ignorant and didn't know anything, but now that I realize that something is wrong, I naturally have to ask in response, maybe things are not as I think? ”

Fang's mother reached out and grabbed Cui Wanqing's hand, holding it tightly, tears fell on the back of Cui Wanqing's hand, Cui Wanqing only felt that every drop of this tear was hot.

Mother Fang pulled Cui Wanqing's hand, wiped her tears with a handkerchief, helped Cui Wanqing to sit down, and sat on the brocade pestle herself, bowing her head and thinking carefully for a while.

When she raised her head again, she was still sad, but her expression was resolute, and she said very seriously: "Miss, you have grown up now, there are many things, and the slave and maid don't hide it from you. ”

"When our wife got married at the age of fifteen and was pregnant with you at sixteen, her health has always been very good.

"The slave and maid are with me every time, and I have never heard that there is anything bad about Mrs., but when I gave birth, Mrs. suddenly had a difficult birth, and then finally gave birth to you, and there was a blood collapse, even if the old lady doctor did not hesitate to enter the delivery room to apply needles, but failed to stop the bleeding."

"You must know that at that time, the people who delivered the baby for your mother were all found by the Ming'an Hou Mansion, and the people who served by Mrs. were the most heartfelt maids around her, in addition to us, there were also the third uncle's wife and Miss Wei, so no matter how the two uncles investigated, they didn't find anything wrong, but they killed five or six maids' mothers, and in the end, there was nothing left."

When Fang's mother mentioned the past again, her heart was unbearable with grief, and the sadness was like a rolling wave.

This old thing, in fact, has been bothering her for so many years, she has been telling herself that the death of her young lady is bad luck, and that a woman giving birth to a child is a matter of desperate work, and she has not crossed that hurdle, and it is no wonder that others.

But when Cui Wanqing asked like this, the deep scar was dug up again, and the bloody pain was unbearable, and Fang's mother suddenly found that she had been lying to herself all along, and she had never felt that her wife had died strangely!

Mother Fang gritted her teeth, fell to her knees suddenly, and said in a resolute tone: "Miss, the slave has always been suspicious in her heart, this time since you have found something, we don't dare to take it lightly, we must investigate to the end, and find out clearly!" ”

Cui Wanqing saw her like this, for the sake of her previous master, such a heart, ten years have passed, and she still can't forget it, and she can't help but sigh again in her heart, "Loyal servants are hard to find." ”

She hurriedly helped Fang's mother up, and persuaded softly: "Good mother, this is natural, your wife, but my mother-in-law, if my mother-in-law is wronged, and my daughter-in-law doesn't find out, then it will be a thunderstorm?" ”

"Don't worry, from now on, you just need to cooperate with me."

"Now, calm down and think about it, since you went out, who else is still by your mother's side until her death?"

Mother Fang had already thought about it just now, so she would report it one by one: "Xiangdie, Caidie, and Mengdie are all here, the two stable mothers, the third uncle's wife, and Miss Wei, it should be the seven of them." ”

Cui Wanqing saw that she mentioned Miss Wei twice in succession, and couldn't help asking, "Who is Miss Wei?" ”

"It's also a good friend of the young lady, and the daughter of Mr. Pengfei Academy."

"Does that grandma know, who did this Miss Wei marry later?"

"It seems that Xu gave her father's proud protégé, the scholar's surname is Zheng, but this Miss Wei's background is not high, although the family she married is a scholarly family, but it is not an official family, and after the Zhou family entered the gate of the Cui family, the news was gradually cut off."

Cui Wanqing nodded secretly after hearing this, I am afraid that it will take some time to find this Miss Wei.

"Are the colorful butterflies and dream butterflies still in Zhuangzi now?" It's better to find what is in front of you, and it's faster.

Fang's mother's eyes darkened, "Caidie was picked up by Mrs. outside, and she was the most heartfelt to Mrs., and she spontaneously volunteered to guard the tomb for Mrs. for three years, and in the winter of the second year, she got a cold and went like that." ”

"Although Mengdie is married, she has taken the same path with her wife, but she is even more pitiful, the children have not been saved, and the adults and children have gone together."

"Those two stable women, do you remember it? What are their surnames, and can we still find them now? When Cui Wanqing heard this, she sneered in her heart.

If you guess correctly, one of these two stable women must be innocent, plus the old lady is afraid that it is not clean, so many people join forces, if she wants to send Cao Yunxiu to the ghost gate, it is difficult for her not to die.

It can be seen that most of this person died at the hands of the closest people, and he was not the same in his previous life?

It's ridiculous that at that time, I thought that I was about to boil out, but it turned out that I was not being a cow and a horse, and I had been serving the pillow person for more than ten years, and a bowl of poison was sent to Huangquan Road?

When asked about this, Cui Wanqing made up her mind, whether it was for herself or for the ninth sister who died early, this matter must be investigated clearly, and a belated justice for Cao Yunxiu must be recovered.

In the first few years of Fang's mother, she was thinking about the scene of the day of her master's death almost day and night, and she had passed it in her mind over and over again, how could she forget the two stable women who delivered the baby?

She said affirmatively: "These two stable women are both well-known masters in the capital, one surnamed Zhu, who lives in Qingcheng Lane in Dongsanli. The other, surnamed Li, lives on Vase Street in the south of the city. ”

Cui Wanqing nodded, "Mom will take Brother Li tomorrow, the two of you will go to inquire together, don't take our carriage, just be cautious, I don't want anyone to know about this matter until there is any definite news." ”

Mother Fang nodded again and again, "The slave and maid understand, the slave and maid must be careful, you see, do you want to inquire about Miss Wei's whereabouts?" ”

Cui Wanqing shook her head, "First inquire about the situation of these two stable women, after all, the two of them have a bottom to check, even if they move, they are not afraid, as long as they are still doing this business, they can find out." ”

Fang's mother thought of being a stable woman, but she had to prepare a foundation in the yamen, that is, to be on guard, these people colluded with others to kill people.

The master and servant discussed it properly, and Fang's mother was even more ambitious, and secretly swore in her heart that she would find out these two stable women.

Why, she ran outside for a few days in a row, but she found nothing, the two stable women who delivered the baby, the one surnamed Zhu, did not move, but she was old, she had a stroke, half of her body could not move, and she couldn't speak.

Another surnamed Li moved his family away that year, Fang's mother went to the yamen to check, this person did not do the job of a stable woman anymore, the sea of people is vast, but it is difficult to find it anymore. R1152
