Putting the piece in his hand back into the chess box, Duanmu Qing's smile was a little cold, "I'll wait for her to dig her own grave." ”

Looking at her puzzled eyes, she had to explain: "These days, grandmother has indeed annoyed her, but this does not mean that the old lady will not care about her life or death.

After all, everyone knows that grandmother and Li Ningshuang's mother are sisters, and they all know that grandmother has always had a knot in her heart for this sister. ”

"I also know this, I once heard the second uncle say that my grandmother will set up an altar every year on her death day."

Nodding, Duanmu Qing said: "They are poor sisters, and the relationship is naturally different from what we see on weekdays, and the relationship between them is not ordinarily deep." ”

Duanmu Su understood, "What does that sister mean that no matter what the second aunt does wrong, no matter how much the grandmother annoys her, she will still save her life?" ”

"That's why I haven't touched her."

Let Cai Wei help redress the two of them, and the two of them went to Rongxi Hall together.

"Some wounds can only be healed if they are allowed to festered to a certain extent, and then removed as well.

Li Ningshuang is such a wound on my grandmother's heart, what I do on weekdays is just to make her fester. ”

"Now ......"

Looking at this little girl who was growing up under her own inspiration, Duanmu Qing smiled: "Now is the time, people are always partial." ”

In the Rongxi Hall, the old lady had just gotten up from a nap and was freshening up.

I didn't think that after these days, Duanmu Qing suddenly found that the old lady was indeed old.

When I looked at the white hair before, I only felt that it was shining, like silver threads.

At this moment, it is gray and gloomy, like the easternmost sky when the sun sets.

Seeing the two sisters coming, the old lady did not smile as usual, but said a little tiredly: "You are here." ”

Taking the handkerchief from Aunt Qin's hand and carefully wiping her fingers, Duanmu Qing smiled and asked, "Grandmother slept well?" ”

Shaking his head casually, he walked out by himself, "Where can I sleep, I only feel panicked in my heart." ”

When he said a word, his eyes turned red first, and he couldn't say it anymore.

Knowing that she remembered Duanmuyi's matter again, Duanmuqing and Duanmusu glanced at each other, but they didn't know what to say.

Because his death was unknown and he was an official of the imperial court, Duanmuyi's funeral had not officially begun to be prepared.

At this time, Jing Zhaoyin had already begun to investigate, and the body was also carried away.

Duanmusu stepped forward, picked up the cup on the table, blew it to make sure it wasn't hot, and then brought it to the old lady.

"Grandmother, it's useless to think about this matter, and now we are all looking at you! What should we do if you are sad and broken? ”

Compared with Duanmuqing's sanity and intelligence, the old lady actually prefers the considerate Duanmusu in her heart.

In addition, she was born thin, and because of the Zhou family, no one took care of her, so she felt even more pity in her heart.

This time, it was Duanmu Yi who died, Duanmusu's father.

She is now the only bloodline in the third room, and she feels pitiful when she thinks about it.

So when I heard her say this, I also endured my sadness, took the tea and took a sip.

Let her sit down in her seat, but she didn't say a word, only closed her eyes, and seemed to be too tired.

"How's your father and two older brothers going?"

Knowing that she didn't rest well, seeing that she closed her eyes and recuperated, Duanmu Qing and Duanmusu also sat quietly and did not speak.

Who would have thought that such a question would suddenly be taken aback.

After steady, Duanmu Qing realized that she was asking herself, and hurriedly said, "There is no news for the time being."

However, my father asked me and Su'er to stay with my grandmother well, knowing that my grandmother was worried about the investigation, and he would come to tell you as soon as he had any news. ”

The old lady didn't have much hope that she would be able to find out something in such a short time, so she was not very disappointed when she heard this.

"Grandmother!"

A soft voice suddenly sounded at the door, and Duanmu Zi walked in in plain clothes.

There are only two simple plain silver hairpins on his head, without any ornaments on his body, and a pair of beautiful eyes are red, obviously crying.

She was originally born beautiful, and at this time, she looks a little sick.

The old lady didn't expect her to come over suddenly at this time, and the expression on her face was stunned for a moment.

The events of the previous two days have not subsided, but now I really have no energy.

didn't bother to talk about her, just nodded lightly with an unhappy face, and agreed.

Who knew that Duanmu Zi suddenly burst into tears and cried into tears.

"You ......"

The old lady was obviously frightened, this matter was indeed a tragedy for the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

She herself would unconsciously shed tears when she thought about it, but what kind of person Duanmu Zi was, and how she didn't know.

has nothing to do with Duanmu Yi at all, how could he cry so sadly for him.

But at this time she was crying, and she had no reason to say anything about her.

Or she opened her mouth by herself, and sobbed and said: "Zi'er is wrong, Zi'er didn't know that such a thing would happen at home, Zi'er asked her grandmother for forgiveness." ”

After saying that, he knelt down and kept kowtowing.

No one would have thought that she would suddenly come out like this, and everyone was stunned for a while.

Seeing that the snow-white forehead turned red in an instant, Duanmusu wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but was preempted by the old lady.

It wasn't a word of forgiveness, but he said lightly: "Okay, you just remember it next time." ”

Of course, this was obviously a perfunctory sentence, but Duanmu Zi seemed to be grateful, "Grandmother Xie forgive her granddaughter, Zi'er will never be next time." ”

The old lady nodded lightly and said no more.

Seeing this, Duanmu Zi got up from the ground, quietly walked behind the old lady, and obediently pinched her shoulders.

Duanmu Qing was not surprised by her behavior.

Compared with Li Ningshuang, Duanmu Zi is still smarter.

At least she knows how to judge the situation a little better than her.

Even if he didn't understand it before, he should have seen it clearly this time, and the Duke of Qi now has no pity for Li Ningshuang, the daughter who got married.

Now even the Marquis of Yongding Mansion has nothing to do with their mother and daughter.

But she weighed it clearly, the Qi State Mansion was indeed powerful, but the surname was Li.

Now I can't rely on my grandfather's family, so I can only find a way to win over my own family.

After all, she is not Li Ningshuang, she is surnamed Duanmu, and she will always have the blood of the Marquis of Yongding on her body.

This place doesn't treat her anymore, and she's still a serious lady here.

Duanmu Zi, who was standing behind the old lady, saw Duanmu Qing's indifferent expression in the corners of his eyes, and he couldn't help but feel jealous in his heart.

Why is she always such a leisurely expression?

The expression was as if he was mocking himself, as if he was telling himself that no matter what he did, he couldn't beat her.

Forever and ever, only able to survive under her feet.

Secretly hiding the hatred in his eyes, the expression on Duanmusu's face became more and more humble.

The old lady had not rested well, and at this time, Duanmu Zi gently pinched her shoulder, and she felt more and more sleepy.

Duanmuqing looked at her, it was not good to disturb her anymore, she glanced at Duanmusu, and both of them put down the silk thread in their hands and retreated together.

Before he walked out of the door, he saw Duanmujun and Duanmuhe hurriedly walking in.

The purple kite announced, and the old lady opened her eyes.

Duanmuqing and Duanmusu had no choice but to fold back.

Judging by their appearance, it should be that the case has been discovered.

Duanmu Zi subconsciously went to look at Duanmu Qing, but saw a vague smile on the corner of her mouth.

The smile was like a poppy blooming on the edge of a cliff, with a hint of bloodlust.

There was a slight burst in my heart, and I had a bad premonition inexplicably.

"How's the investigation going? Did you find anything abnormal? ”

The old lady didn't give them a chance to greet them, so she asked directly when she entered the door.

Duanmujun and Duanmuhe glanced at each other, and they all looked at the old lady with a sad face.

"What the hell is going on? If you have something to say, just say it, are you still afraid that I won't be able to bear it? ”

Seeing that his mother was about to get angry, Duanmu Jun hesitated for a long time and finally spoke, "Third brother...... The third brother may have been premeditated. ”

Although I didn't have no conjectures about such a result, I even believed that it would be the case compared to Zhou's crazy behavior in my heart.

But when she heard the news with her own ears, the old lady still felt a mountain of pain welling up in her chest.

"Mother! Grandmother! ”

Everyone spoke out almost at the same moment, just because of her suddenly discolored face.

Unexpectedly, the old lady did not fall, her eyes were closed tightly, and even tears did not flow from the corners of her eyes.

It seemed that her closed eyes were waiting for her tears to return to her stomach.

Slowly opening her eyes, the old lady took a deep breath, "What did you find, what made you think that the third child was not killed by Zhou Qinfang." ”

"Actually, it was indeed the third brother and sister who did it, but the point is that the third brother and sister were framed by others."

Duanmu Jun was obviously very sad, and his eyes were red.

It's just that in front of my mother, there is something to explain this matter, and I can only endure it to death.

"The third brother and sister have been mentally abnormal since the incident with Brother You'er, and the house invited Imperial Doctor Zhang to come over to treat the third brother and sister.

I've checked the prescriptions carefully, and those herbs are indeed used to stabilize the spirit.

But the medicine that the third brother and sister drank on the morning of the accident was not exactly the medicinal materials on the prescription. ”

"You mean that Zhou Qinfang's medicine was tampered with?"

The old lady gripped the handle of the chair tightly with both hands, and looked at Duanmu Jun with both eyes fixedly.

Nodding, Duanmu Jun continued: "I found the medicine residue, and I went to the palace to ask the imperial doctor, only to know that the medicine not only can not suppress the patient's condition, but will have a stimulating effect."

The third brother and sister were originally influenced by Brother You'er, and they were particularly prone to the illness of the third brother's feelings, and the matter of Miss Yue'er that day naturally caused the illness of the third brother and sister. ”

The old lady was a little dumbfounded, she couldn't imagine that something had happened here, and she didn't say anything for a long time.

"It's someone from the house?!"

When this sentence was spoken, the chill could already be clearly heard.

Duanmuhe had been standing aside without speaking, and when he heard this, he quietly stepped aside.

Duanmu Zi was shocked, his action was clearly to explain this matter, and he was not easy to speak.

"This is the result of the child's investigation." Duanmu Jun took out something from his arms, stepped forward and handed it to the old lady.
