"Found it, found it!"

Crispy Xin ran in with a cheer, and didn't care about taking a breath, so he said, "Miss, the person you want to see...... Got it! ”

At that time, Gan Peilin had only seen the account books compiled by Wang Qingchan, and it was true that the accounts were clear, careful and detailed. She raised her head to look at the crispy core and asked curiously, "Who have you found?" ”

"Hasn't the eldest lady always wanted to find someone who used to serve Madame? Chen Rui found Granny Xu. "Crisp core speaks, Chen Rui has already brought Granny Xu here.

Gan Peilin hurriedly closed the account book and walked quickly to the door: "Are you ...... Granny Xu? ”

"Yes. The old slave greets the eldest lady. Granny Xu bowed her head lightly, looked at Gan Peilin cautiously, and muddy tears flowed from her eyes. The eldest lady and the lady are very similar when they were young. It's just that Mrs. is gentle and delicate, and she looks very gentle. And the eldest lady's eyebrows are clear and majestic, but she is a little more heroic. ”

"yes." Gan Peilin nodded: "Mother is gentle and gentle. Not even a single live bird has been killed in Su Ri. ”

At this point, Gan Peilin cleaned up his face: "Crispy core, tea." ”

"Yes." Crispy Core and Chen Rui stepped back together.

Gan Peilin motioned to Granny Xu to sit down beside her: "Granny Xu used to serve her mother, but why don't I seem to have seen you?" Can you tell me about my mother? ”

Granny Xu nodded and said slowly: "The old slave entered the Xu Mansion at the age of eight, and he was an orphan and didn't know his background. The old lady of the Xu family gave me the name Qin'er, and allowed me to have the same surname as the Xu family. At that time, the wife was only a year old. I helped the nurse to take care of my wife, until my wife came to Ganfu, and the slave and maid came with her and served her for a year. ”

"A year?" Gan Peilin was very curious: "It is said that my mother-in-law has taken care of my mother since she was very young. It should be emotionally deep. Why did you only serve in Kam for a year? ”

"Ugh." Granny Xu sighed: "It's the old slave who is clumsy herself, and one day she accompanies your mother out of the house to buy goods." Rolled off the carriage and his right leg was crushed by the wheels. Mrs. felt sorry for the old slave, so she asked her to buy a hut for the old slave in Zhuangzi, and invited two girls to take care of her. ”

Speaking of this, Granny Xu lowered her head a little embarrassed: "It takes a hundred days to hurt your muscles and bones, and the old slave has been recuperated for half a year." This half a year...... The old slave and the last farmer of the Zhuangzi had been in love for a long time, and the lady noticed it when she came to visit. immediately agreed to let the old slave marry him, and from then on it was enough to take care of the things in the Zhuangzi, and never let the old slave return to the house to serve. ”

"Mother is so understanding." Gan Peilin knew that this was her mother's distress for Granny Xu. At the same time, she was a little curious, thought for a while, and asked: "I asked people to find the person who used to serve my mother, and it took a long time to find Granny Xu." Didn't you stay in the Zhuangzi all the time? ”

"yes." Granny Xu nodded: "My family is such a kid, he has a home in another village." The old man and I moved in. When people are old, their bodies and bones are useless, and they can't see the things in Zhuangzi anymore. ”

Granny Xu wiped her tears as she spoke: "Just because I am far away, I don't know the news of the accident with my wife." It was only half a year after the lady left that someone mentioned it. I want to come back to visit Madame, after all, the master and servant have been a servant, and Madame has always been there for us. But after coming back, he was stopped by the door of Ganfu and blasted away, and he didn't even let the door in......"

"At that time, I was still grieving, and I couldn't care about anything else. Wronged mother-in-law. Gan Peilin patted the back of her hand gently.

"Ganfu has changed hands, and the new lady has taken the throne." Granny Xu had tears in her eyes: "The life of the eldest lady is not too good." ”

Wiping away her tears, Granny Xu said softly: "Actually, but the slave maid really doesn't know if the lady knows it, but the slave maid is indeed an afterthought." ”

"How?" Gan Peilin saw a hint of chill flashing in her eyes, and suddenly felt that there was a hidden feeling.

"I saw that Zhuangzi had two or three years, and the slave and maid saw the coachman who helped his wife buy and drive the car that day. He went up to the village to get some newly harvested ears of wheat, and it happened that the slave and maid met him. Half joking, half serious, told him to check the wheels before driving, and not to break his leg in the middle of the road. He was annoyed at the time, and said that he had accompanied his wife out to buy that day, and the carriage had been inspected early in the morning, and he had found such a big crack in the wheel. The loss is that the person who fell out of the carriage that day is a slave and a maid, if it is a lady......"

Granny Xu sighed faintly: "He didn't dare to say it." But I had a suspicion in my heart. Thinking about it later, yes. Madame has always been kind to the slaves and maids around her, and she will never kick people out of the house because the slaves and maids are sick and can't do things. My wife and I have been inseparable since childhood, why did my wife want me to go so far away to Zhuangzi to recuperate? She doesn't dislike me, and she instructs someone to take care of me, so the only possibility is ......"

Granny Xu raised her eyes and looked at Gan Peilin, and the words stopped here.

"The only possibility is that my mother is afraid that someone will attack you again, and she will not be able to protect you who are injured." Gan Peilin's heart tightened: "It turns out that my mother has just married into Ganfu for a year, and she has already become a thorn in the side of others. I used to be ignorant, and I thought she was the most noble woman in the house. As everyone knows, it is also the most dangerous. ”

"Miss." Granny Xu's eyes were cold, and her tone was slightly cold: "Is Madam really deceased?" Is it possible otherwise? ”

When she asked, Gan Peilin's heart tightened violently, as if she was being pinched by someone.

"I ...... I don't know......" Gan Peilin recalled her mother's last days, and she really didn't notice anything wrong. The imperial doctor came twice a day, and the decoction was fried by the closest people around my mother. Besides, her mother understands pharmacology, and the queen mother said that she can make medicinal sachets, if it is really a decoction that has been tampered with, she herself cannot know anything about it.

"The eldest lady forgives her sins, and the old slave is just saying it in vain." Granny Xu didn't know why she had such suspicions: "Maybe all this is because the old slave feels guilty in his heart, so he feels weird." The eldest lady is smart and accompanies her lady every day, so there must be no such thing. ”

"Granny Xu, tell me about my mother when she was a child." Gan Peilin didn't want to dig deeper, after all, she had no evidence.

"Okay." Granny Xu nodded and said with a smile: "Madame has not liked embroidery since she was a child, and she always feels that the dazzling neck of stitch embroidery is also sore." But the old lady had to urge her to practice every day. Mrs. secretly asked the maid around her to do the work for her, and the old slave also embroidered for Mrs. many times. Later, the old lady found out that she was also beaten with bamboo strips, and her palms were swollen. Later, the lady gave medicine to the old slave and began to learn it herself. Gradually, Madame's needlework got better and better, but the old lady didn't force her very much. ”

"It seems to be genetic." Gan Peilin said with a smile: "I don't like needlework embroidery the most. It's because my mother is very considerate, that is, she taught me and never forced it. ”

In this way, Granny Xu told Gan Peilin a lot of things about her mother's past. Gan Peilin laughed and cried when he heard it, and always felt that his mother was still by his side and had not gone far.

Granny Xu stayed in Ganfu for three days, and Gan Peilin gave her gold and silver cloth, and asked Chen Rui to find someone who was kind to send Granny Xu home.

As soon as the person left, her house was empty for the past few days, and it was a little uncomfortable.

"The eldest lady is stunned again." Crispy Core brought the eight-treasure porridge to her: "You don't want to play the side stove, and you are not happy to add a pot, it is cold, the small kitchen is ready, and it will be cold after a while." In winter, you always have to drink something warm to warm your stomach. ”

"Hmm." Gan Peilin nodded: "A bowl of porridge is excellent, but you, Deng Ai, stew a pot and eat it hot." I don't have much of an appetite. ”

Just as he was saying that he had no appetite, Chen Rui walked in quickly.

The crispy core instinctively felt that it would be no good for him to come in like this, so he hurriedly said: "Granny Xu has been gone for two or three days, and the eldest lady's appetite has not been very good. Can't you come over later and wait for the eldest lady to eat something first? ”

Chen Rui nodded slightly: "Yes." ”

"No, you don't." Gan Peilin said while eating porridge: "What's the matter, you just say it." ”

"......" Chen Rui glanced sideways at the crispy core, and swallowed the words that came to his mouth. Miss, the slave just remembered that there is something that has not been done yet. Why don't you wait and come back? ”

"When did you become such a mother-in-law?" Gan Peilin was dissatisfied: "If you have something to say, it's straightforward." ”

"Granny Xu was robbed by bandits, and her whole family died." As soon as Chen Rui's words fell, the spoon in Gan Peilin's hand fell to the ground.

"What did you say?" Gan Peilin frowned and looked at him: "The whole family? Bandits? ”

"Yes." Chen Rui hurriedly knelt down: "It's the slave who is not thoughtful." Because it's okay to escort Granny Chen home. Who knows, that night, a bandit broke into her house, burned, killed and looted...... When the fire was extinguished, the villagers found out...... No one survived. ”

"Wrap the car." Gan Peilin got up with a sigh: "What about the swallows." ”

Yanzi, who was waiting outside the door, immediately stepped forward: "What does Madame command?" ”

"Gather people and horses, and follow me to Granny Xu's house." Gan Peilin has only one thought, killing to pay for his life.

"Miss, no. It is not known if this was done by bandits. But whether it's or not, it's dangerous for you to go over like this. Chen Rui knelt down: "This matter is not handled by the minions, and the minions must go and do it in person and give you an explanation." ”

"I asked you to go to Granny Xu. I also asked you to bring her to Ganfu. I gave you gold and silver to escort you, but I didn't expect them to attack Granny Xu's house. Gan Peilin raised his chin slightly: "It's a thief, so he swept his mountain." If not, the culprit must be found out. People cannot be resurrected from death, but they can sacrifice their souls in heaven with the lives of their enemies. Still not going? ”

Chen Rui knew that he couldn't stop it, so he agreed hard.

But the swallow didn't say a word, and did as instructed.

"Brittle core." Gan Peilin said solemnly: "If my father asks, just tell him that I will go out of the city to find the best phoenix crown and jade, and I will return in three or five days." ”

"Miss, the slave will go with you!" Where can you rest assured that the crispy core.

"Guard the Gan Mansion for me, no one here is simple." Gan Peilin shook her shoulder hard: "Don't worry about me." ”
