58. Man is not for himself2
Aunt Ruan sent someone to burn the IOU, but the person was also afraid of setting himself on fire, so he lit a fire and put the IOU, and left, Xi Qiu, who had been following the person, stepped on the fire on the IOU in time, although it was damaged, but fortunately, Aunt Ruan's signature and the key things such as borrowing Ye Xueru's 30,000 taels of silver had not been burned.
Now under the secret grid in Ye Xueru's house, there is an IOU of 100,000 taels, a fake IOU, and Ling Youran's imitation of Aunt Ruan's handwriting, Aunt Ruan will definitely refute it vigorously, but this time to deal with Aunt Ruan's fake IOU is enough for her to be punished.
"Old lady, bring the IOU." Ling Youran passed by Aunt Ruan and presented the IOU to the old lady, Aunt Ruan's body trembled, Ling Youran was too satisfied with Aunt Ruan's expression now, "Hmph, it's really 100,000 taels." The old lady slapped the IOU on the table.
Aunt Ruan stood up, grabbed the IOU on the table, and murmured, "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible." After reading the signature below, she immediately knelt down, "Please old lady Mingjian, the signature on this is definitely not her daughter-in-law's." ”
Before Ling Youran could speak, she had already said sharply, "Who else is it if it's not yours?" "Daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law only borrowed 30,000 taels, but did not take 100,000 taels, please ask the old lady to know it." Aunt Ruan admitted it, but the current form does not allow her not to admit it.
Aunt Ruan knelt on the ground and kowtowed, she knew that if she wanted this matter to settle down, she couldn't be afraid of hardship, Ling Youran and the old lady didn't care about her, let her kowtow, and after a while, blood was already seen on the floor.
"Okay, this matter, let's stop here, the third room, you go back and think about it behind closed doors, as for Aunt Ruan, seeing that she is not out of confinement yet, just let her pay back the money."
The old lady's arrangement can't help but make people discuss, Aunt Ruan is the biggest "main culprit" in this matter, but the old lady actually fell lightly like this.
This time, the most unwilling is the third room, but I also recognized Aunt Ruan's face, and the most fortunate are Ling Yuran and Aunt Ruan, but if it wasn't for Aunt Ruan who just gave birth to a son, maybe the result would not be like this.
Ling Youran could look indifferent, as if nothing had happened just now, she didn't work in vain, at least Sanfang would definitely come to take refuge in the future.
And it can be regarded as saving the Sanfang family, in the last life, they were all sent to the Zhuangzi in the field by the old lady because of this incident, and they died inexplicably after three years.
At least in this life, there is no such thing, she killed Aunt Ruan's daughter who was about to be born in six years, and now she has saved two people, which can be regarded as making up for her psychological guilt.
Everyone dispersed, only Aunt Ruan still had three rooms, Aunt Ruan passed by Ling Youran's side, and only said, "Thank you for finding out about this matter." I wrote down this account. "This feud is also settled.
Ling Youran smiled slightly, "You're welcome." Sanfang threw a grateful look at Ling Youran, and after Aunt Ruan left, Ye Xueru walked to Ling Youran's side, "Thank you so much today." ”
Ling Youran just said lightly, "You're welcome, if the third wife needs Ran Ran's help in the future, she can come to Ran Ran." Ye Xueru turned to Ling Demon Ran, "Miss Xie San." ”
Ling Youran was taken aback, and hurriedly helped Ye Xueru up, "Why do you have to make such a big gift, and this is not in accordance with the rules, how can it be good to let the subordinates see it?" Ling Youran smiled lightly.
"What the third lady said is that I didn't think it through, so I'll retire first." Ye Xueru retreated, and Ling Youran also returned to the room.
"Miss, I'm scared to death today." Xi Qiu's face was anxious, Ling Youran picked up the tea on the table and took a bite, "What's wrong?" Xi Qiu said to Ling Youran, "Didn't you go to the third wife's room to get an IOU today?" At that time, someone followed you, a maid, but her face was very raw. ”
Ling Youran's eyes looked at the tea leaves in the teacup, and said, "Keep an eye on Aunt Ruan and Sanfang's movements at any time, and go find Mama Zhang for me now." ”
"Okay." Xi Qiu agreed. "Miss." Mama Zhang was dressed in hidden clothes, and blessed Ling Demon Ran, "Mama Zhang doesn't have to be polite to me." ”
Mama Zhang nodded, "Sit down." Ling Youran took a stool, "Yo~ Third Miss, this can't be helped, if you let the old lady know about the slave, it'll be over." ”
Ling Youran smiled, "You are the old man in this mansion, and the wife will also give you a little thin noodles in front of you." Mama Zhang smiled and did not respond.
"I'm looking for you to come to Mama Zhang today, mainly to catch up with you, you said that you are the dowry maid who followed my mother, and you also watched me grow up since I was a child, just like my second mother."
Mama Zhang waved her hand, "Third Miss, that's not what I said, you are a young lady, I am a subordinate, and I should serve you." ”
"But I have never regarded Mama Zhang as a subordinate, I believe that you are also loyal to my mother, and now I suspect that my mother's death was done by someone, so I want to trouble you can check if you can check what medicinal materials are colorless and tasteless, killing people invisibly."
Of course, Ling Youran is not suspicious now, but sure, but she has no way to investigate in this Ling Mansion, and Old Madam Wang is too far away, she thinks, when the dust settles down, she must find Mama Zhang to ask about the affairs between the grandmother and grandmother.
In the previous life, she had been confused for a lifetime, and in this life, she didn't want to live in a mess anymore.
"Okay, the old slave will go and check, and he will definitely not disappoint the expectations of the third lady." Mama Zhang wanted to retreat, but Ling Youran stopped her, "Mama Zhang, don't keep this matter secret, there are not many people around me who can be trusted, I don't want anything to happen to you, Mama Zhang." ”
Mama Zhang was so moved in her heart, "Third Miss, don't worry, the old slave will be more careful, and she will pay more attention to the situation on Aunt Ruan's side." ”
According to the situation in the previous life, Mama Zhang was a loyal servant, so Ling Youran was willing to tell her these heart-wrenching words.
In the old lady's room, "Shuwan, go and take out all the cash in my box." The old lady took a sip of tea and instructed her mother-in-law, "Yes." ”
Shuwan brought a small box, "There are five thousand taels in here, it should be enough for each room to make clothes, go to the third room, this time they don't have to go." ”
Ling Demon Ran looked at this qiē quietly on the roof, it seemed that the old lady still hadn't forgiven the third room, and the third room would have a worse time in the Ling Mansion in the future.
"Miss, are you back?" Xi Qiu looked around and made sure that there was no one, so he closed the door. "Well, get me some bath water, I'm going to take a shower." Xi Qiu smiled, "I know that Miss will definitely be tired after a day of tossing, and the bath water has already been prepared." ”
"Alright, you go down first." Ling Demon Ran instructed Xi Qiudao, "Okay." Xi Qiu closed the door and retreated.
"What happened between my grandmother and my grandmother?" Ling Youran was thinking about this question while bathing, and suddenly a man in a night suit came in from the window, "Who are you?" "Ling Demon Ran hasn't forgotten that he is still bathing.
"Ahh ”
The man didn't answer, and Ling Youran hurriedly put on his clothes, "Xi Qiu! "Miss, what's wrong?" Xi Qiu had been guarding outside, but he didn't know when the man had entered.
So when I went in, I couldn't help but be startled, how could there be a man in my own lady's boudoir? Besides, my own lady is still bathing.
"Who are you? How bold! How dare you break into our young lady's boudoir! Xi Qiu looked angry, and Ling Youran frowned, "You go to the best golden medicine in the room." ”
Xi Qiu knew where Ling Youran liked to put the gold sore medicine the most, but she didn't know why Ling Youran wanted to save him, after all, he was just a stranger, and if he was discovered, he would be called inappropriate.
In fact, Ling Youran didn't know why, but she always felt that if this person didn't save her, she would regret it for the rest of her life, "Miss, gold sore medicine." ”
Ling Youran tore a piece of cloth from herself, "Xi Qiu, you go to the door and watch, don't let anyone in." "Hmm." Xi Qiu agreed.
"You bear with it, it might hurt a little." Ling Youran sprinkled the golden sore medicine evenly on him, "Ah! The man growled, "Be quiet." Ling Demon Ran instructed.
The man smiled, "Hehe, what? Afraid of being known? Then why did you save me? The man's smile seemed to be a little self-deprecating.
"It's not that I'm afraid you'll bring people in, but if you struggle any longer, the wound will crack even more." Ling Youran said kindly, "Really? ”
"You're being hunted here." Ling Youran frowned, this might alarm the people of the Ling Mansion, and this man's life might not be saved, "Yes." The man was calm.
"Because of what?" Ling Youran asked casually while packing up the medicine box, "This ......" The man swallowed, and Ling Demon Ran was embarrassed to see him, "If you don't want to say it, forget it, anyway, I don't trust a stranger." ”
"Then why did you save me?" Ling Youran looked at him, and met his eyes, which were very clean, but there was an unapproachable indifference. "Because I can't see death without help."
"That's your reason?" The man laughed, "Otherwise, what else could it be?" Ling Youran packed up the medical kit, only to find that the man had fallen asleep.
A mother-in-law outside had already told Aunt Ruan about this, "Is this true?" Ling Yuran was very excited, she couldn't wait to let that man ruin Ling Youran's innocence immediately.
"Don't be impatient, Mama Li, since the man's whereabouts are unknown, it proves that he may leave at any time." Ling Yuran looked anxious, "What should I do then?" ”
Aunt Ruan smiled lightly, "Then find a man, the fake drama is really done, anyway, isn't the man covered in injuries?" That proves that he is a fugitive, or else an assassin, and we will make a big deal out of it and report it to the government. Spend some more money to get a man to hide in Ling Youran's boudoir, but she Ling Youran has ten mouths and can't tell. ”
"It's a great idea, and in this case, it can also relieve the hatred in our hearts." Ling Yuran clenched his fists, "Ahem." Aunt Ruan coughed twice to indicate that she was still present.
