After a while, several mothers-in-law came with Qu'er, Qu'er was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was so frightened by several mothers-in-law that she had no idea, and as soon as she was taken to the spring festival, she hurriedly knelt on the ground and cried: "The slave doesn't know what she did wrong, and she asks the lady to punish her." ”

Yingchun threw the purse in front of Qu'er, Qu'er saw the purse in front of him clearly, and shrank his body. Qu'er's actions have long been seen by Yingchun. Yingchun knew that this matter had nothing to do with Qu'er. "Anyway, Qu'er, what's going on?"

Yingchun's voice was cold for the first time.

Qu'er trembled and cried, "It's all the slaves and maids who are confused, because they are greedy, looking at the monthly cases of several sisters in the house, the slaves and maids secretly stole Sister Qingdai's purse, and wanted to get a few dollars, the slaves and maids only this time, the slaves and maids don't dare anymore, and I hope that Mrs. will be gracious!" ”

Yingchun frowned, "Then let me ask you, why did this purse appear by the lake in the garden?" ”

"The lake in the garden?" Qu'er opened her big eyes, blinked, and shook her head blankly, "The slave has never been to the lake." ”

Yingchun laughed coldly, "It seems that if you are not punished, you will not tell the truth." Si Zhu, take someone down and give me a palm! Fight until she is willing to tell the truth and then pull it back. ”

Qu'er cried and begged for mercy, kowtowing like pounding garlic, and the mother-in-law next to her pulled Qu'er down with her.

Yingchun motioned for Huaijiao to come over, and whispered in Huaijiao's ear: "You go and take a look, look at Qu'er's expression, and how well you answered." ”

Huaijiao also went down.

After a while, Huaijiao came back, "Madam, Qu'er doesn't seem to be lying, the corners of her mouth are cracked, she is just a child." ”

Yingchun waved his hand, "Let them stop, you ask Qu'er about the purse again, if it's nothing, you can explain a few words to Qu'er, if you dare to steal something again, you will kick her out." ”

Huaijiao replied and retreated.

Yingchun took the tea lid and gently shook the heat, Qu'er has a child's character, and he wants to tell the truth. If that's the case, Qu'er's clue is broken. Yingchun only felt that his head was very painful, Sun Mansion was not a big mansion, but it was so difficult to find a place to sit.

Huaijiao replied, "Madam, Qu'er really doesn't seem to know anything, she was extremely surprised that she even had her purse in your hand, she said she was hiding." ”

Yingchun closed his eyes and waved his hand at Huaijiao. Yingchun rubbed his temples lightly, did he ignore something or miss something? Zelan is dead, Ke'er is dead, even the water silk is dead, and now the people in the house are panicking, if they don't find out again, I'm afraid everyone will not have a good time.

Yingchun opened his eyes and pushed the teacup aside, Si Zhu hurriedly came over, "Madame, is there no appetite again?" Would you like to try some stuffed plums? ”

In the past few days, the joy and joy of spring have been very bad, and I can't eat much in all my diet. Several girls were also very anxious, Sun Shaozu persuaded and persuaded, helplessly, Yingchun was just smelling the smell of oil stars, and wanted to vomit.

Yingchun raised his head, glanced at Si Zhu, and asked, "What about Xiao Yun?" ”

Si Zhu turned around and looked, "I really don't know where that little hoof ran again, I think I'll be back in a while." ”

Several girls know that Xiao Yun comes and goes freely now, and if she goes out, she will definitely help her husband do things, so she never asks much.

Si Zhu asked tentatively, "Or, the slave sent someone to find her?" ”

Yingchun closed her eyes and shook her head.

The New Year is still going to pass, although Sun Shaozu and Yingchun are extremely nervous in their hearts, on the surface, they still have to be happy under Mrs. Sun's knees. On the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the second old man and the second lady returned early with Sun Chengtao and Sun Chengji. Sun Huiyan also came over with Yuling. Sun Chengtao, who was already a child, wore a navy blue robe, a jade belt around his waist, and his hair was pinned to his head with a wooden hairpin. Looking at it from afar, Sun Chengtao is handsome and extraordinary.

Mrs. Sun smiled when she saw it, "But Tao'er is the most promising, she has become a child at a young age, and her future is limitless." ”

The second master and the second lady both laughed, and the second lady smiled and said, "It's that my mother will praise people and praise Tao'er like something." The second lady turned her head to look at Yingchun, "Brother and sister, we still expect that in the future, our brother and sister will tell Tao'er about family affairs." ”

Yingchun replied with a smile, "There are good people who must come to their own families first." ”

When Sun Chengtao heard this, his face turned red and he lowered his head.

Sun Chengji jumped and slapped on the side, "Marry a daughter-in-law, marry a daughter-in-law!" ”

Sun Chengji's words made everyone in the room laugh.

Mrs. Sun asked about the business in the second master's shop, and the second master bowed down and replied, "It's better, my son is working hard, and I don't dare to dishonor the reputation of my ancestors, nor dare I live up to my mother's high expectations." ”

Mrs. Sun glanced at the child held by the nurse behind her, "Bring my granddaughter over and I'll take a look." ”

The second lady has given birth to a third child, a girl, named Yumo, the metaphor of the second master is that girls should be quiet, silent, and know how to teach their husbands and children. At this time, Mrs. Sun mentioned it, and the second lady hurriedly called the nurse over, took the child with her own hands, and hugged it in front of Mrs. Sun.

Mrs. Sun was overjoyed, although she was a concubine, but they were all her grandsons, and Mrs. Sun was still full of joy when she looked at it. Mrs. Sun teased Yumo for a while and handed over the child to the second lady. "Your second sister can't come back because she is Han Ze is going to have a spring holiday, I think it's good, this Han Ze was at the beginning, I didn't look at him well, but now I look at this behavior, Gu Jia, and I will train my daughter-in-law, a willful Ying'er, let him take care of it, how can a person with these two sons be an ordinary person, I think Han's son-in-law's good life is still to come."

As soon as Mrs. Sun spoke, everyone naturally echoed. Everyone talked and laughed, and before they knew it, it was evening. After letting go of the firecrackers and having a reunion dinner, Mrs. Sun sent the second master's family back.

sent away the second master's family, and everyone dispersed. Sun Shaozu and Yingchun asked the three children to go back to sleep earlier, and the husband and wife went into the main room hand in hand. After washing, the lady rested early.

Fifteen years later, Sun Fu was also calm for half a month, and on this day, Yingchun was resting, and someone was calling her lightly. "Madame, ma'am." Yingchun opened his eyes. Standing beside him was Xiao Yun.

Xiao Yun saw Yingchun open her eyes and looked excited, "Madam, the slave maid has been checking Aunt Zheng's house for the past few days, for fear that she will miss something." Just now, the slave maid went to Aunt Zheng's yard again, and the slave maid found that there was a lipstick mark on the brocade quilt when Aunt Zheng died. ”

Yingchun sat up suddenly, and the blanket covered by her body fell to the ground. Xiao Yun hurriedly picked up the blanket and helped Yingchun, "Madame, be slow, be careful to get dizzy." ”

Yingchun grabbed Xiao Yun and said, "Come on carefully." ”

Xiao Yun said carefully, "The slave maid has always been haunted by the death of Aunt Zheng and Ke'er, and the slave maid suddenly thought that she should go to Aunt Zheng's room to take a look, maybe she can find something." There will definitely be nothing more by the lake, the slave and maid have already checked, even if they haven't checked, these days have passed, and there are people coming and going in the garden, maybe there is no trace of anything for a long time. The slave and maid searched carefully in Aunt Zheng's room for a long time, but did not find anything, and when she was deflated, the slave and maid saw that Aunt Zheng had a lipstick mark on her messy quilt. The slave and maid went to check it carefully. ”

"The fat mark was bright red, and the slave smelled it, and the aroma was not the same as the ordinary one. Aunt Zheng's personality is also known to Mrs. Zheng, she will never wear such a bright color. The slave was afraid that she would think wrong, so she searched all the rouge gouache of Aunt Zheng, but she didn't get the kind of lipstick that was applied. ”

Yingchun's heart was about to rise to his throat, "So, this lipstick mark is very likely...... Was it left behind by the person who killed Aunt Zheng? ”

Xiao Yun nodded, "Very likely." The slave and maid looked at it carefully, and found that the kind of lipstick we usually make, or the kind sold in rouge shops, this kind of lipstick is the lipstick of Qianjinyi, which is made of comfrey, ripe vermilion, cloves, and the juice of flower petals when it is in full bloom. Because it is extremely troublesome, even if it is colorful, few people make it. The slave maid thought about it carefully, and the only person in the house who used the lipstick of the golden wing was Luo Yi. Luo Yi stays alone in the small study, she has a lot of work to do, and she likes to mix rouge gouache, and everyone in the house knows that she is well adjusted, which is better than what is sold outside. ”

Roy?! It's really Roy! Yingchun's body stiffened, and his eyes were half-narrowed. "Xiao Yun, you go and bring someone to take Luo Yi ...... Bring it to me, watch out for her, be careful that she also has martial arts. ”

"Madame, don't worry." Xiao Yun didn't say much and retreated.

After half a day's effort, Xiao Yun came back, and there was no one behind her. Yingchun frowned, and an ominous premonition flashed in his heart. "What about people?"

The corners of Xiao Yun's mouth twitched, "Madam, Luo Yi is ...... Took poison. ”

With a snap, the copper hand stove in Yingchun's arms fell to the ground, "Poisoned?!" Yingchun's eyes widened in surprise, "What kind of situation it is, tell me quickly." ”

Xiao Yun lowered her head, "It's all to blame on the slave maid, I didn't expect Luo Yi to take this move." When I took someone, Roy was sitting upright on the bed in his room. When Luo Yi saw the slave and maid come in, as if she had known it for a long time, she smiled and said, 'I already knew how shrewd Madame was, she would definitely find out about me, and this is already the case, and I don't want to live anymore.' When the slave heard that Roy's words were wrong, she went to stop her, but she knew that she had taken poison...... The slave found the lipstick in Roy's gouache. ”

Yingchun looked at Xiao Yun with a remorseful face and comforted, "No wonder you, where would you know that Luo Yi would do this, you go and call Sun Xi to report to the official." ”

Xiao Yun hung her head and retreated.

Luo Yi is also dead, and Yingchun doesn't know whether to breathe a sigh of relief or be happy. King Fuqing's sitter is gone, and now the biggest enemy is only King Fuqing. Yingchun looked down at his lower abdomen, and gently stroked it with his hand, at least, he and his children could live a peaceful life for a day or two, and they didn't have to watch out for anyone.
