Chapter 358: Bystander
"About some time before my wife's accident, she suddenly told me that adults had become a little weird."
Xiao Cui stood opposite Jiang Li, she knew that the only people who could help her wife avenge her husband now might be Jiang Li, and she didn't dare to hide anything, so she immediately told all the abnormalities during that time.
Madame said that she felt that the adult had dealings with a strange man, and often shut up in her study to discuss matters with him. That person is not from Meizhou City, and I can't tell the identity of that person. ”
Xiao Cui said, roughly describing the person's appearance.
It's just that the more she goes down, the more Jiang Liang feels that this person's appearance and characteristics make her a little familiar, and she can't help but exchange a look with Yuehua.
Yuehua nodded, confirming her thoughts.
Jiang Liang nodded his head quietly, and did not interrupt Xiao Cui's narration, but asked. "How long did that man stay in the palace, and do you know where he went?"
"The little one doesn't know where that person went, the little one is the maid next to the lady, who is responsible for serving tea and pouring water on weekdays, thanks to the love of the lady, she is good to the slaves and maids on weekdays, and she is willing to tell us if she has anything to say."
Xiaocui actually doesn't know much about the things in the front yard, to put it bluntly, she is a maid who serves Mrs. Yang in the backyard, and she is not a first-class maid, so she can know that these things are due to Mrs. Yang's lack of steam on weekdays, and she is willing to chat and have fun with them.
It is also because of this that Xiaocui can know these things.
Although Jiang Liang felt it, he could understand it.
"And then?"
"The little one also happened to be seen by an adult once, and asked me to make a pot of good tea and send it to the study, and then I met the man. I really don't know about the rest. ”
Xiao Cui reviewed it carefully, and shook her head again, saying that no matter how much she did, she would not be clear. "It's just that Madame said that after that person appeared, the adults began to become eccentric, and the little ones had a little impression of this person."
Speaking of this, Xiao Cui's eyes gradually turned red.
Later, one day Madame suddenly dismissed the maid in the house, and stuffed a letter to me, telling me to take care of it. Madame didn't even have time to say where she was going to send the letter, only that one day the little one would know what to do. ”
"It didn't take long for Madame to suddenly fall ill and die."
Xiao Cui finally couldn't help it when she said this, and tears fell down her eyes, it could be seen that she had a deep affection for the deceased Mrs. Yang, otherwise she would not have been so sad about her death after so long.
"Since Mrs. Yang went to be ill suddenly, she shouldn't have suffered too much, and you don't need to be so sad and sad."
Jiang Liang didn't know how to comfort the other party, so he could only comfort him softly.
"No, it's not! Madame didn't go to the hospital in a hurry, although the adults said so to the outside, but the little ones knew that it was not like that! ”
Xiao Cui listened to Jiang Li's reassurance, and instead of being relieved, her emotions became excited, as if her words were ridiculously wrong.
Jiang Liang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and his expression became solemn.
Xiaocui was originally Mrs. Yang's maid, so she naturally knew how to observe words and feelings, and when she saw the change in Jiang Li's expression, she knew that she was questioning herself, and hurriedly explained.
"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes!"
As soon as she said this, Jiang Liang couldn't help but exchange a look with Yuehua.
Yuehua was originally a secret guard and was professionally trained, especially good at interrogating prisoners. At this time, she glanced at Xiao Cui and shook her head at Jiang Li, indicating that she showed no signs of lying.
Jiang Liang and Yuehua's master and servant have been working for a long time, and they have also developed a tacit understanding, and they are relieved when they see this.
"Tell me in detail, what the hell is going on?"
"That night was not a small night, but I didn't know what I ate during the day, but I had diarrhea. When I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, I heard movement in the lady's yard. ”
Because it is convenient to take care of the master's daily life, the maid's residence is not far from the master's residence, and Xiaocui is also driven by curiosity, so she will come to find out.
"On weekdays, Mrs. and adults have a very good relationship, and they have never quarreled and blushed, but the movement that night was too big, which is really curious."
Xiao Cui explained, and then continued. "The little one didn't dare to make a noise, and secretly ran to the yard, and saw that the courtyard was empty, and Liu Er, who was on duty that night, was not in the yard, so the little one had the courage to look out the window and look in, and ......"
When she said this, Xiao Cui choked up, tears fell, and she didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing that she was crying breathlessly, Yuehua hurriedly stepped forward to help her pat her back, and finally helped her adjust her breath.
"The little one saw that the adult actually reached out and pinched Madame's neck, and poured a bowl of decoction into Madame's stomach! Madame struggled desperately, holding the adult's hand as if it was in pain. ”
"Since you saw it, why didn't you go in and stop it?"
Yuehua looked at Xiao Cui disapprovingly, although she could understand Xiao Cui's approach, but she couldn't agree with her practice of watching Mrs. Yang being killed without any action.
Jiang Liang focused on what Xiao Cui saw, and did not criticize her, but continued to ask.
"You mean, the people in charge of the vigil that night were dismissed in advance, and there were only Lord Yang and Mrs. Yang in the house?"
"Hmm."
Xiao Cui's eyes were red, and she didn't dare to hide anything at this time, so she nodded heavily. "yes, that's it."
"Mrs. Yang left at that time?"
Jiang Liang didn't let go of any details, and asked one by one.
"No, no. Madame was still alive at the time. ”
Xiao Cui shook her head and denied Jiang Li's statement. "Madame didn't die immediately, she was still alive after being poured the decoction, I remember it clearly."
"She, she finally said to the adults, don't think that his plan will succeed, she is dead, and his good days are over."
As she spoke, Xiao Cui's eyes turned red again, and she lowered her head to look at the ground, and she could see that her mood was very heavy.
Jiang Liang couldn't help but sigh when he heard Xiaocui say everything.
"So, only you know the cause of Mrs. Yang's death?"
"The little one didn't know, the little one was very scared at the time, ran back to the house and hid, and then heard someone shouting, saying that the lady was sick and dying, so he followed everyone to the yard."
I have to say that Xiaocui is still quite witty, and she didn't expose herself, but barely fooled the past.
"So, you were dismissed by Lord Yang after that?"
Jiang Liang still remembered the chef's statement, it was said that these maids who were originally serving Mrs. Yang were dismissed from the mansion by Lord Yang.
