Chapter 46: Suicide in fear of sin

Liu Yufei's eyes flashed a different color, but he didn't let Ran Yinyin notice it, he gently stroked Ran Yinyin's face, and gently stroked a strand of messy hair behind her ear, and then slowly spoke.

"How do those bandits deserve to be my friends? It's nothing more than an exchange of interests. ”

Before Ran Yinyin's face changed, Liu Yufei continued: "However, since Yin Yin has fallen to such a point because of me, I will definitely not sit back and watch you suffer in the court, don't worry, I will definitely protect you." ”

Ran Yinyin was moved by the affection in Liu Yufei's words, nodded with trust, and saw Liu Yufei take out a black pill from his sleeve and put it in Ran Yinyin's palm.

"What is this?" Ran Yinyin looked at Liu Yufei suspiciously.

"I know that Yin Yin is a proud woman, how can she be bullied by the villain, this medicine will make people temporarily fall into a state of suspended animation, after taking it, you can avoid being tried in court. Don't worry, I will take you away secretly and hide in a place where no one knows, and when the rumors pass, I will come back again with a different identity, and we can be together forever. ”

Ran Yinyin was attracted by the bright future that Liu Yufei described to her, dispelled the last trace of doubt in her heart, took the pill in Liu Yufei's hand, and carefully put it away.

"Yu Fei, I'll wait for you."

Ran Yinyin looked at Liu Yufei with trust on her face, re-disguised herself, left the teahouse, and went home to eat the "fake death medicine".

"Brother, did you really give her fake death medicine?"

Liu Yunyao walked out from behind the screen behind the partition and frowned at Liu Yufei, who was speechless.

"Where in the world did you get the fake death pill?" Liu Yufei scoffed.

"What did Ran Yinyin take?" Liu Yunyao looked at Liu Yu's light appearance, and was suddenly a little frightened, and didn't dare to ask more.

"I said I would protect her from interrogation."

Liu Yufei had a gentle smile in his eyes, but the words he said had a hint of coolness, which made Liu Yunyao even more afraid.

In the main hall of Ran Mansion, the subordinates sent to the rouge shop returned to the house with the letters and a box of gold and silver that they had turned over, coupled with the testimony of Boss Wang, the evidence was ironclad.

Unexpectedly, everyone was waiting for Ran Yinyin to be brought, and after finally asking, they were sent to the government together, but the Sanfang Mansion sent a message at this time, saying that Ran Yinyin had committed suicide by taking poison.

Ran Qiu Nian was shocked and blurted out: "This is impossible!" How could someone like Ran Yinyin commit suicide? ”

"Miss Hui, Miss Yin did commit suicide by taking poison, and in her own boudoir, the third room is now going to be a mess."

The messenger did not dare to conceal it, and 1510 told the masters of the main hall what he saw.

"Ran Yinyin, this kid, how could he ......?"

Although the old lady was angry and chilled that Ran Yinyin colluded with mountain bandits to murder her, she never thought that Ran Yinyin would commit suicide directly, and her mood was suddenly a little complicated.

Mo said that the old lady was unacceptable all of a sudden, and even Ran Qiunian was full of disbelief.

How could this Ran Yinyin die so simply? With her being so forbearant and vicious, how could she think of dying until the mountains and rivers were exhausted?

Although she colluded with the mountain bandits to almost murder her grandmother, with her grandmother's temperament, she may not be able to convict Ran Yinyin of death. At most, he is imprisoned or married far away from Zhuangzi like Ran Susu, and he will not die.

"Since the person is dead, I will not pursue her affairs. Send this mountain bandit back to the official mansion and disperse. ”

The old lady is obviously a little tired, Ran Yinyin is also her granddaughter after all, although she has done something wrong, but it is enough to repay it with one death, and the old lady does not want to pursue it anymore.

Ran Qiu thought about her grandmother's mood, and she didn't refute it when she heard the words, she followed her grandmother's thoughts and helped her back to the house.

Ran Yinyin's death made this matter lightly, and no one investigated who instructed those mountain bandits. And after Ran Qiunian watched her grandmother fall asleep, she couldn't help but go to Xiao Yin to talk about it.

"How could Ran Yinyin be willing to die like this? Big brother, I always find it hard to believe. ”

Ran Qiunian stared at the tea cup on the table with his head propped up.

"Ran Yinyin is in the back house, even if she has a little scheming, it is difficult to contact the power of the mountain bandits, I am afraid there is a mystery behind this."

Xiao Yin was straightforward.

Hearing this, Ran Qiunian suddenly remembered, looked at Xiao Yin and added: "I remember, on the day of Brother Qiubai's accident, I probed the third aunt's tone, and she didn't seem to know anything about the mountain bandits. ”

"That's right, those mountain bandits only insisted that they were colluding with Ran Yinyin, and didn't mention anyone else. This is strange, since the mountain bandits didn't find Ran Yinyin from Sanfang, who else would give Ran Yinyin a way to contact the mountain bandits? ”

Xiao Yin's words drove Ran Qiunian's thoughts, and she suddenly had a bold guess - Liu Yufei. In the grove behind the worship hall of the City God Temple that day, the person who had a private meeting with Ran Yinyin was Liu Yufei.

Sanfang fell into grief because of Ran Yinyin's death, and he didn't know how sincere the sadness was and how much drama he showed, but Ran Yinyin's funeral was quickly completed.

Because she was an unmarried daughter, and she was almost charged with banditry and murder of relatives, Ran Yinyin was not buried in the ancestral grave of the Ran family, but only fell into a coffin on a barren dirt slope next to the ancestral grave.

The old lady was really a little depressed because of Ran Yinyin's incident, and after Ran Yinyin was buried, she took Ran Qiunian to the suburban summer resort again.

At this moment, in a dilapidated thatched hut at the foot of the mountain, a short man with a pockmarked face was fighting at a woman dressed in coarse cloth.

"Slut, I thought you were a young lady, who knew that you were a money-loser, married to me for so long, ate me and drank me, didn't have a penny in the account, and dared to show face to me, really when you are still the eldest lady of Ran Mansion?"

The woman who was slapped to the ground by a drunken man, unkempt and haggard, was none other than Ran Susu, who had been given up by the third room of the Ran family, her eyes were full of hatred, but she didn't dare to resist, and she was beaten and shrunk into a ball.

"If Lao Tzu had married the four young ladies that day, maybe they would still be able to live together in the summer village on the mountain, Lao Tzu would be really unlucky enough to marry such a mourning star as you."

Wang Mazi shouted for a while, and when he was tired, he fell crooked and fell asleep in the yard. After a long time, Ran Susu slowly got up from the ground, looking at Wang Mazi with a gloomy face, but he hated Ran Qiunian in Wang Mazi's mouth even more.

"Ran Qiunian, if it weren't for you, how could I have fallen to such a ......?"

Ran Susu had a word, she glanced at the outline of the villa that could be seen faintly in the distance, made up her mind, and walked step by step towards Wang Mazi, who fell to the ground and was drunk.

With a plop, there was a heavy splash of water from the deep wellhead, Ran Susu cleaned up casually, took all the copper plates, locked the courtyard door, and left the dilapidated thatched hut without hesitation.

Since Ran Qiunian arrived at the summer resort, for some reason, her grandmother had to take a nap for a long time every day.

If it weren't for confirming that her grandmother was not sick, Ran Qiunian would only be afraid that she would have to stay by her grandmother's bedside every step in order to be sure. In the end, it can only be attributed to Ran Yinyin's death, which made her grandmother a little relieved for a while.

After being free, Ran Qiunian ran all the interesting places in the Zhuangzi and thought about going to the mountains to have a look.

"How's that going to work? You little girl, what are you going to do in the mountains, it's not safe on the mountains at this time, and grandmother doesn't worry about you going to the mountains. ”

After dinner, Ran Qiunian said something to her grandmother, but when she was rejected by her grandmother, she immediately leaned up and hugged her grandmother's arm and smiled flatteringly.

"It's not that Nian'er is going alone, there are also Master Xiugu and Qingxi, there will be no danger with them, besides, Nian'er is just looking at the periphery and ensuring that she will not go too deep into the mountains."

Ran Qiu Nian shook her grandmother's arm, and seeing that there were signs of softening, she immediately said more diligently: "Nian'er has been alone in the Zhuangzi for the past few days, and she has walked around the Zhuangzi, and she is bored." ”

"I also heard that after the rain, there will be a lot of wild fruits and wild mushrooms in the mountains, and Nian'er is also learning the ability to identify herbs.

"You kid, you say the mountains are so good, don't go when the time comes, and you dislike that there are many mosquitoes on the mountain, it's too late to regret it. That's it, since you have to go to the mountains to play, it's better to ask your Aunt Xiu to take you to see it, so that you don't have to worry about it all day. ”

Grandmother patted Ran Qiunian's hand holding her arm, and she couldn't help but be entangled by Ran Qiunian, so she had to answer her with tears and laughter.

With her grandmother's permission, Ran Qiunian was very happy, and the nice words were poured out one after another, which made her grandmother smile all over her face.

Early the next morning, Ran Qiunian and Xiugu Qingxi went out of Zhuangzi together and went up to the mountain behind.

There was a rain two days ago, and there were a lot of wild mushrooms in the forest, Xiu Gu remembered the reason why they came out, and grabbed Ran Qiunian to carefully explain which wild mushrooms can be eaten and which ones are poisonous.

"There are so many mushrooms on the mountain, why don't we pick more and take them back and eat them?"

After listening to Aunt Xiu talk for a long time, Ran Qiunian couldn't help but propose.

"You're just beginning to learn how to tell the poison of wild mushrooms, so you're bound to make mistakes."

Xiu Gu was about to refuse, but when she saw Ran Qiunian's expectant gaze, her words changed and her attitude softened a little.

"But moderate practice is also okay, you follow the distinguishing method I just explained, pick some non-toxic mushrooms and bring them back, and I will help you sort them again, so that you can see how many you have memorized."

"Great, Master Xiugu is the best. Qingxi, let's compare and see who finds the most non-poisonous mushrooms, I'll go over there to find them first. ”

Ran Qiunian cheered quietly, and pulled Qingxi to look for mushrooms together, and each of them had a small bamboo basket, and picked up the mushrooms within Xiugu's line of sight.

Xiu Gu just watched the two little girls play with doting eyes, and did not follow them to mess around, and after a while, she saw that everyone received most of the basket and returned with a full load.
