Chapter 196: The Vortex

The swallow handed over a dirty sachet that had been stepped on, and the sachet was actually gunpowder.

"You found it in the side hall?" Gan Peilin was a little surprised.

There is a side hall in the Zen Heart Temple, which is arranged in imitation of the prayer hall. Because the main hall is too magnificent, there is a suspicion that it does not conform to the identity of Ganfu, so only the side hall is built.

"Yes." Yanzi nodded: "I also walked a few more steps, and it passed." ”

"Miss, why does this sachet look so familiar." The crispy core picked it up and took a closer look. "Ah, isn't this the sachet you used before, Miss? At that time, we always liked to put incense powder in it. ”

"yes." Of course Gan Peilin remembers the things he used.

"It's for you again, Miss." Brittle: "Why can't you live a good life quietly for a few months." Seeing that the young lady is about to get married, don't care about these idle things in the house, why don't you let us go. ”

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop." Yanzi said with cold eyes: "Madam, do you have any suspicions in your heart?" Whoever it is, as long as you nod your head, I guarantee this person won't survive tonight. ”

This made Crispcore shiver, although she thought so too. But when Yanzi said this, it made people panic when they listened.

"If simply killing someone can solve all the troubles, that's a good thing." Gan Peilin smiled: "But some hatred can't end with death." ”

"Madame, the slave doesn't understand this." Swallow was confused: "Doesn't death end a hatred?" ”

"It's too easy to die, and it's too cheap for him." Gan Peilin closed his eyes, not wanting to continue this unpleasant topic. "Don't talk about that. It's good that this thing allows you to find out, otherwise you don't know what kind of right and wrong you want to provoke. ”

"The eldest lady always has to think about how to clean up the Mo family, this matter must have something to do with her." Liulan gritted her teeth: "This woman is so hateful, she always calculates us with a thief's heart." ”

"yes." Gan Peilin really wanted to deal with Mo Yanqing. Gan Puyang's fingers were chopped off by others, and he was more closely guarded, doing coolies every day, moving stones, and grinding his edges and corners. Even so, Mo Yanqing still didn't know what was wrong.

"Miss, go and persuade me." The housekeeper hurriedly came in, and Chen Rui ran in.

"Miss......" Chen Rui made a helpless expression in embarrassment, meaning that he failed to stop the housekeeper.

"What's the matter?" Gan Peilin frowned and asked.

"The old man went to the third aunt's wife's room and said that he wanted to use family law." The housekeeper was worried: "The third aunt and Mrs. are already sick, so I'm afraid that they won't be able to withstand the family law." ”

"You mean, my father believes that the third aunt did this?" Gan Peilin thought to himself, his father has never been an impatient person, how could he be angry with a crazy person.

"Originally, there was none, but I found something in the third aunt's room. It's like something you've used before, stuffed with gunpowder. Originally, the matter of the young master of Yu Ze last time was not clear, and the master said that he would be punished for several crimes, even if the third aunt and his wife were not well yet, they would definitely not tolerate it. The housekeeper thought to himself, the only person who can persuade the master now is probably the eldest lady.

Gan Peilin nodded and hurried to Xinfengju.

Unfortunately, it was too late for her to come.

Yang Guizhi was tied between two trees with a long hemp rope, and her arms and legs were stretched out, like a "big" character. The clothes on his body were torn by whips, revealing bright red blood, which looked so shocking.

"Father...... "Gan Peilin didn't know what to say."

"Shut this slut up and lock her up, and don't let her step out of the door." Gan Yuntian issued a strict order: "Don't let her die." ”

"Yes." The butler nodded hurriedly.

Since his father said so, Gan Peilin has nothing to say.

"That's right, Peilin." Gan Yuntian fainted once, although he didn't know that he was drugged, he always felt that his body was not as good as before. He took a deep breath and said in a solemn tone: "The Tian family is not good, and he can't take care of the affairs of Ganfu." These days, you help with some first. ”

"Father, but I've never done that." Gan Peilin hurriedly said: "Or let my mother ......"

"When your mother was around, you used to help her. I also helped Rumei, you are clever, and you are very relieved to be a father. "Gan Yuntian was a little gasping when he spoke, probably because he was angry and took a lot of effort." Someone can take over later, and then we will discuss it. ”

"Yes." Gan Peilin thought to himself, isn't this looking for bad luck.

Originally, she didn't have to pay attention to these things. No matter how poor the fourth aunt's wife Tian Le is, she is always a person who wants to live in Ganfu for a long time. She doesn't have to stay here for the rest of her life.

"Congratulations, eldest lady, you have the power to take charge of the house." The butler gave his hand happily.

"......" What a happy event. Gan Peilin was not reluctant at all. "The most important thing at the moment is to rebuild the Zen Heart Monastery for my grandmother and take care of my grandmother's departure. It's all a matter of money, so you have to see how much money you can use in the house. If not, you have to negotiate with the Zhonggong and use the Zhonggong's money. I'll have to negotiate with a few uncles......"

"What the eldest lady said is that the slave will have the account book sent to your room." The butler said as he retreated neatly.

"But ......" Gan Peilin let out a long sigh and swallowed the words that came to his mouth. Isn't that bad luck? Okay, nothing to look for.

"Madam, the slave and maid can help to read the account books." Yanzi looked at her worriedly, and said, "If you need Mr. Accounts, the slave can also ask for someone." ”

"That's good, that's good." Gan Peilin was more comfortable: "You can help you see it, and you don't need Mr. Bookkeeper for the time being." By the way, Liulan, you have to guard well outside the Star Picking Tower, don't let the Tian family break in and sprinkle. I'm afraid that the brittle core can't stop her, and you have to come. ”

"Miss, don't worry." Liulan had seen Tian's sprinkling, so she naturally knew it in her heart.

"Okay, let's go back first." Gan Peilin felt very tired and in a bad mood. At this time, I thought a little about Liu Rumei, if she lived, this kind of thing would not fall on her.

As soon as the account books were delivered, Tian also came over to make trouble.

Crispy Core came in with tea, with a helpless face: "What is this called?" What we have to do has not been done, not to mention the clues, and there are such a bunch of rights and wrongs. ”

Gan Peilin suddenly put down the booklet in his hand, looked at the crisp core intently, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. "You reminded me that we were going to check my grandmother's storeroom. But the fire burned the entire Zen Heart Temple, and the clue was really broken. ”

"Miss, you drink tea to moisten your throat first, maybe there is another way." Crispy Core was a little worried that her words would make her uncomfortable.

"It's not." Gan Peilin shook his head lightly: "In this way, the biggest beneficiary of this fire is not the Mo family. She didn't get the slightest benefit from it. Instead...... Grandmother. ”

"But the things in the old lady's treasury are really so unsightly?" Crisp Core said puzzledly: "She is the most noble person in Ganfu." Even if it's a master, he goes to say hello every day, and he doesn't leave it down for a day. Even if she really took Madame's things, even if she used them, no one in the house would dare to say a word. Is it possible to set fire to everything? Not to mention anything else, even the gold and silver utensils that the eldest lady sent her can be worth a lot of money. ”

"Stupid." Gan Peilin slapped his head suddenly: "It's really stupid." How can the vessels of gold and silver be burned to ashes? There are also those porcelain and jade, and it is impossible to burn the dregs left. I can't see this in the things that I just threw out. ”

"The slave and maid understand, and the slave and maid will go and call Chen Rui." The brittle core eyes are shining, and you can understand the depth at once.

Chen Rui listened to the instructions and went to check the records of entering and leaving Ganfu from last night to this morning. Of course, this record is not to ask the door of the house. Instead, he inquired from people outside the house. Sure enough, he found the answer that Gan Peilin wanted to know.

"Miss, from last night to this morning, only two carriages have gone out. One was pouring rancid water, and the other was transporting vegetables into the house. Chen Rui has always done things properly: "The slave has already asked people to check, and found that the vegetables sent to the house are not the ones ordered in the past." It just so happened to be a different one. Although the things sent into the house have not changed much, the cars and people are different. The minions have already asked people to secretly check the trajectory of people and cars after they left the house. ”

"That's it, don't look it up." Gan Peilin is not in a hurry to confirm this matter now. Just wait for my grandmother to leave the house and go directly with someone, which is easier and more convenient. "You look up another thing for me."

"Miss, please command." Chen Rui gave up.

"This sachet, I remember using it a long time ago. At that time, my mother was still there, and Su Rili would teach me some embroidery. You go and find out why this thing was found in Tian's room. "Gan Peilin always felt that the Tian family was being used." It doesn't hurt that the arson didn't work out, but someone took the opportunity to frame me, and I can't go unchecked. ”

"Ma'am." The swallow didn't understand again. "Obviously, the old lady of Ganfu expected such a fire. will pack up the gold and silver in advance and send it out of the house. Why do you think she didn't frame you about gunpowder? Could it be that there would be two people working together to make this happen? ”

"I always felt that my grandmother had something to hide, but it didn't kill me." Gan Peilin thought to herself, what she cared about most was the future of Ganfu, only if Ganfu was good, she would have a steady stream of silver to use. And her ability to marry Jiang Yu has undoubtedly become a "cash cow" in her grandmother's eyes, not only to shake the money, but also to shake the future. Why did my grandmother cut off this way of wealth?

"Don't guess, it's the most effective check." Gan Peilin waved his hand: "Liulan continues to guard the Star Picking Tower, Yanzi and I will finish reading these account books, Chen Rui will go out to investigate, Crisp Core, you let people stare at Tian's side, don't have any accidents." Let's do our best to do what we have at hand, and soon, we will find out what we want to know. ”

I don't know why, the current Gan Mansion is like a whirlpool intertwined with many conspiracies. She tried to break free, but she kept being sucked inside.
