Xie Jinlan shook his head slightly:

"There are a lot of people in the king's foreign government, especially the female dependents, and I am afraid that there are a lot of secrets. Although Mrs. Wang wants to find out the real culprit, she is afraid that she will hide something about her biological daughter or the reputation of the Yuanwaifu.

You also said that Mrs. Wang is now sick in bed, and she needs to recuperate from this illness, and it is not easy for me to start investigating. ”

Ruan Yezhen nodded in understanding: "But I'm afraid I won't gain much." ”

Xie Jinlan didn't care much: "I didn't expect too much news from you. ”

Ruan Yezhen suddenly glared at him angrily: Why is this person's mouth so poisonous? Can't you say something nice?

Early in the morning of the second day, under the guidance of Mo Yan, Ruan Yezhen entered the Tingfeng Courtyard very smoothly.

floated into the master bedroom alone, and before she could see the scene in front of her, a bitter smell of medicine instantly penetrated Ruan Yezhen's nose, making her subconsciously cover Qiong's nose.

"Zirou, you've worked hard to take care of my wife these days." A rather weak voice came from between the beds.

Ruan Yezhen floated closer, and saw an old woman sitting on a delicately made pear blossom wood bed. Her face was pale, her eyes drooped slightly, and she looked like she was not in good spirits.

In front of the old woman sat a young woman in her twenties, and I saw that she was holding a bowl of steaming decoction in her hand, scooping up a spoonful from time to time, blowing it slightly cool, and then carefully feeding it into the old woman's mouth, without the slightest impatience on her face.

Needless to say, Ruan Yezhen knew that these two were Mrs. Wang, the wife of Wang Yuanwai, and Lin Zirou, the daughter of Mama Zeng.

A bowl of soup and medicine bottomed out, and Yahuan, who was holding a tray on the side, stepped forward in time, and Lin Zirou gently placed the porcelain bowl in her hand on it.

Mrs. Wang glanced at the waiting maids on both sides, and said lightly, "You guys go down first." ”

The maids stepped back.

In an instant, only Mrs. Wang and Lin Zirou were left in the room.

Maybe it's because people are sick, Mrs. Wang can't help but feel a little more nostalgic for the old things: "Zirou, you said that God is like this now, is it retribution?" Is it God's punishment for the wrong thing he did five years ago? ”

When Ruan Yezhen heard this, she immediately cheered up: Five years ago? Could it really be as Xie Jinlan guessed, that this case is related to the unknown incident five years ago?

Lin Zirou held Mrs. Wang's wrinkled right hand and said softly, "Madam, how can you think like this? The murderer of the young master has not been caught so far, are you planning to stop pursuing it? The young master is under the Nine Springs, he must not be blind! ”

Ruan Yezhen listened carefully, and could faintly feel a bit of eagerness in Lin Zirou's tone.

Mrs. Wang didn't know if it was because she was ill or because she trusted Lin Zirou too much, but she didn't notice the slightest strangeness in her tone.

After being slightly stunned, Mrs. Wang sighed softly: "What you said is reasonable, one thing is one thing." ”

Ruan Yezhen carefully observed Lin Zirou's every move. As soon as Mrs. Wang's words fell, she breathed a sigh of relief almost invisibly, and her whole person relaxed a little.

Ruan Yezhen's eyebrows frowned slightly: Why does this Lin Zirou care so much about the real murderer of this case? Her relationship with Wang Tianci doesn't seem to be very good.

Recalling Mrs. Wang's previous words, Ruan Yezhen looked at Lin Zirou carefully: Could it be that she was worried that the real murderer in this case was related to the incident five years ago? She fears that the killer's next target is herself......

Just as Ruan Yezhen was frowning and thinking, Lin Zirou's concerned voice came into her ears: "Madam, how do you feel about your body today?" ”

Ruan Yezhen instantly retracted her thoughts and continued to observe the two of them's every move.

Mrs. Wang smiled bitterly and shook her head: "It's still the same." When people get old, their bones are not good, and when they fall, they don't know if they can get up again. ”

Lin Zirou said softly: "Doctor Zhou said, as long as you relax your mind, don't think too much about everything, and rest for a while, your body will get better." ”

Mrs. Wang gently patted Lin Zirou's soft twing:

"Good boy. You accompany and take care of my wife all day long, and you are not too annoying or tired. Look at my three own daughters, they don't know what they've been doing in the past few days, except for the first day when they came to see me. ”

Lin Zi said: "The young ladies must be worried about you in their hearts, but they are afraid of disturbing your tranquility, so they didn't come to see you." ”

Mrs. Wang shook her head with a wry smile: "The girls who crawled out of my belly, how can I not know what their temperament is?" You, don't say good things for the three of them. ”

"Knock knock!"

At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

Immediately after that, a maid's voice came: "Madam, eldest miss, fourth lady, sixth lady, please see." ”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, her head poked out slightly without realizing it, and the joy on her face was self-evident.

Lin Zirou smiled: "Look, aren't the three young ladies coming to see you?" ”

As she spoke, she shouted outward, "Hurry up and invite the three young ladies in." Then he stood up from the edge of the bed.

As soon as Lin Zirou caressed the curtain out of the inner room, he saw that the door was gently pushed open from the outside.

Looking at the three women who walked in together, Lin Zirou smiled and saluted: "Zirou has seen the eldest miss, the fourth lady, and the sixth miss." ”

Ruan Yezhen looked at the three women in front of her, Wang Laidi and Wang Pandi she had seen, and the woman on the left wearing a light blue dress must be the boss Wang Yingdi.

Wang Yingdi replied lightly: "You go down first, we have something to say to our mother." ”

Lin Zirou did not hesitate at all, and retreated with a smile.

A few people came to the inner room. As soon as she saw Mrs. Wang, Wang Laidi immediately sat on the edge of the bed, took her right hand and showed a look of grievance: "Mother, you have to make decisions for me and my fourth sister!" ”

When Mrs. Wang heard this, the light in her eyes dimmed a little in an instant, and she said lightly: "Say, who provoked you again?" ”

Wang Laidi didn't notice the change in Mrs. Wang's mood at all, and said angrily: "It's not Huang Rui'er's cheap woman!" ”

Mrs. Wang glared at Wang Laidi fiercely: "That's the woman in your father's room, don't open your mouth and shut up the cheap woman." Take care of the words reaching your father's ears! See how long he will punish you for kneeling in the ancestral ancestral hall! ”

Thinking of Wang Yuan's solemn face, Wang Laidi's heart trembled, and she instantly closed her mouth. The face is still full of unconvinced.

Wang Yingdi and Wang Pandi each moved a stool and sat in front of Mrs. Wang.

Seeing Wang Laidi's sullen appearance, Wang Pandi opened her mouth in a timely manner: "Mother, don't blame the fourth sister, it's really that Huang Rui'er is too deceitful." I don't take our sisters seriously at all. ”

As he spoke, he told Huang Ruier about the incident of making trouble in the yard of several people yesterday.
