And the day her mother left was sober, and she and her second brother were called to talk a lot, and later, when the grandmother came, the mother asked the maid to take her and the second brother to play elsewhere.

Then, something happened to my mother......

Therefore, the last person my mother saw before her death should be my grandmother.

She was too young to be in a state of terror. Before last night, I had never linked my mother's death to my grandmother.

Doctor Ji wanted to sigh again.

The old lady is not good at anything, but she is not good at lying, and the lies are so unsatisfactory, no wonder the second girl not only does not believe it, but is suspicious of her instead.

He couldn't watch the old lady carry this black cauldron on her back, so that there was a problem between the girl and the old lady.

At this moment, as a loyal supporter of the old lady, he has no choice but to tell the truth.

To maintain the old lady's banner, you must not be crooked, you must hold it firmly!

Doctor Ji withdrew the medicine boy beside him, and then lowered his voice and said, "Madame was indeed poisoned to death, but she was the one who poisoned her, but not the old lady." ”

Xu Wanxi's pupils suddenly contracted.

Mother...... Mother was really poisoned as Zhou's mother-in-law said last night?

"Who is it?"

She asked, clenching the fingers in her sleeve.

"It's Madame herself."

Xu Wanxi was amazed to the extreme, and was speechless for a while.

Doctor Ji sighed: "Madame feels that she is sick, and she has dragged down the prince and the Guogong Mansion, and she does not want to affect the future of the second son and the second girl—besides, Madame has a strong personality since she was a child, and she can't accept that she has such an uncontrolled illness...... The lady committed suicide by insisting on taking medicine on her own. Otherwise, how could he give up just by the affection of the prince to his wife? ”

Xu Wanxi shook her head, and big tears rolled down her cheeks.

"I don't believe my mother would commit suicide ......"

The father treats the mother so considerately, she and the second brother are still young, how can the mother be willing to let go of all this?

"The second young lady is still young, even if you can't figure out many things today, you will understand one day. Madame has been ill for four years, and she has long been tormented by fear and guilt. Speaking of these, Dr. Ji's eyes were complicated and distant.

The truth of the year was far more than that, but in those terrible pasts, he promised his wife that he would never mention half a word more.

Otherwise, Madame's death would really be meaningless.

The reason why the old lady is reluctant to tell the second lady the truth is actually the last wish of the lady, and I am afraid that the second lady will be sad and sad because of this. If it weren't for the suspicion of the old lady in the second lady's heart today, I shouldn't have talked about it too much. ”

Xu Wanxi turned her back and tightly covered her tearful face.

After a long while, she asked in a trembling tone:

"Why did my mother suddenly get insane?"

Doctor Ji: "It's because Mrs. Zhou's mother-in-law next to her doesn't take good care of her." ”

"What does inadequate care take to make a man insane?" Xu Wanxi refused to believe this statement.

"The world is so big that so are all kinds of strange diseases...... Even though I've been practicing medicine for many years, what I've seen is only a drop in the bucket. ”

Xu Wanxi reluctantly believed it.

It's just that when she said this, she couldn't help but ask a little suspiciously: "But isn't my mother an orphan girl?" How can there be a domestic servant with such superb medical skills as Dr. Ji? ”

"That was after the fall of the family......

Dr. Ji sighed in his heart, and didn't want to talk more about the past years.

"The second lady must remember that the Guogong Mansion will marry the lady when she is in the most difficult time, respect her as the main room, and treat her with kindness in every way. The lady committed suicide in order to protect the face of the national government and the princess and the girl, with good intentions. Because of this, the old lady always spoils the girl a little bit. The second lady should be considerate and never be instigated by the wicked. ”

Xu Wanxi was speechless for a long time.

With Zhang Meishou's combing before, her mind was still quite clear, but now that she heard Dr. Ji's words and thought about it carefully, she was convinced.

It's just that she always feels that Dr. Ji, like her grandmother and father, seems to be unanimously hiding some key things from her.

She asked about her mother's life and events, as well as about her grandfather's past.

But no matter how she asked, Dr. Ji said a few words perfunctorily. Instead, while fiddling with herbs, he kept preaching and touting his grandmother's goodness.

Xu Wanxi couldn't stand it in the end, so she had to give up asking.

She did not go back to her yard, but went to her brother Xu Yongning.

When his mother was sick, the second brother was three or four years old, what did he vaguely remember?

Xu Yongning was silent, looking up at the sky.

Not to mention the matter of being three or four years old, even the poems that the master had just taught yesterday, he couldn't remember a single word!

He felt as if he had a fake head.

……

On the other side, the prince of Dingguo was comforting the Duchess of Dingguo.

"Wanxi was born before a full term, and she was born weak, and Ah Zhu was already panicking all day because of the demon monk entering Beijing. If it weren't for Mrs. Zhou's instigation of Ah Zhu to take Wanxi out of the house to offer incense and ask for some peace charms, Ah Zhu would not have met the demon monk, the carriage would not have fallen into the water, and she would not have suffered from madness due to excessive fear...... Mother sent Mrs. Zhou and her husband who drove the car back then, and they also acted in accordance with the rules. ”

Who knew that Mrs. Zhou's husband died in an accident, and Mrs. Zhou lost her husband and children one after another, and she pressed all her hatred on her mother.

mentioned the matter of the late daughter-in-law's death, the Duchess of Dingguo's eyes were red, and she wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

Dingguo Gong on the side looked at his wife fearfully and said: "You are too kind-hearted in your life, you should have listened to me back then, and sent all the mother-in-law's family out that week!" ”

"I thought she was also unintentional, so I didn't want to cut off their family's life......"

Who thought that a trace of kindness back then almost cost her life.

Speaking of which, the Duchess of Dingguo herself felt extremely thrilled.

Dr. Ji said yesterday that the poison was colorless and tasteless, and it could not be detected at all if she was not careful, although she could not be killed for a while, but if she took it every day, it would only take a month or two at most to send her to see her former daughter-in-law.

If it weren't for the recent hot weather and her poor appetite, she would not want to use those tonic stews more, and the consequences would have been unimaginable.

It's just that......

"But it affected the child in Wan's womb." The Duchess of Dingguo was full of guilt in her eyes.

The poison is chronic for normal people, but it is taboo for pregnant women.

The prince of Dingguo comforted: "Mother is also out of good intentions, and ordered someone to stew bird's nest for Wan's body, how would she know that there will be people with ill intentions like Mrs. Zhou in the kitchen?" ”

Duchess Dingguo hesitated for a while before she couldn't help but say, "Actually, I don't have that kind heart...... The bird's nest was stewed in the kitchen and brought to me, but because your father watched it closely, and knew that I had a poor appetite, he had to ask me about my diet every day, and I was also looking for an excuse to get rid of the bird's nest......"

What kind of special stew for the daughter-in-law to replenish the body, there is no such thing.
