Chapter 69: My Mother Who Poisoned It?
"Failed......?"
Su Yong's face was overcast.
Xiao Su's eyes were full of fire inspired by hatred, and he completely lost the calmness and dignity that he usually pretended.
"Shunhetang Zhou Jun was implicated in a murder case, and it is difficult to protect himself, but he will not be stupid enough to tell the fact that we found him and wronged him into Antang, and add another crime to himself."
"What about the brothers?"
"The silver and letters sent by a man named Hanako are now said to be dead, even if they are beaten and broken, and the yamen has not obtained any news from them about the instructor."
"But are we going to leave it at that? Can you just let that dead girl go? ”
The tea glowed cyan in the light, and Xiao Su listened to his brother's voice: "How can you let it go, if it doesn't work once, then do it again...... It doesn't work this way, there's another side...... It's just time for my aunt and cousin to do something this time. ”
"Big lady? How could she? She is a distant relative of us, and she has always been wise to protect her life these days......"
Su Yong smiled secretly: "If you don't want to, you can also have a way to refuse......"
Hearing this, a trace of doubt flashed in Xiao Su's eyes.
Following.
Patches of bamboo forests shade the distant mountains, and faintly, you can see the high cyan wall behind the bamboo forest.
Inside and outside Guifu Village, the sound of cicadas is endless, and in the pond full of lotus flowers, koi fish compete for the steamed bun scum thrown by Duan Ling'er.
Not far away, Geng Liang was leading a few young and strong young men to erect the feng shui stone at Zhuangkou.
On the quaint mountain stone, two lines of words are engraved:
"Chongshang Jianye, inspirational for Jia";
"Win trust with sincerity, and benefit with righteousness".
"Uncle Geng, that's it, right? Is it in the right place? Xie Ci poked his head out from behind the rocks.
Leigh's face was suddenly sprinkled with sunshine.
"Alright, alright, it's already okay!" Geng Liang waved his arm.
This friend of his little master has helped a lot today, but he is so hard-working, it is difficult for anyone who doesn't know him to see him as a guest invited by Duan Ling'er.
It is said that he is still a distinguished guest......
Geng Liang shook his head, it didn't seem to be a so-called guest at all.
Xue Zheng sprinkled a handful of steamed bun scum beside Duan Ling'er and turned his face sideways: "Who do you think will do the matter of Cheng Antang?" ”
Duan Ling'er smiled slightly, and a golden koi fish in front of her was jumping out of the water: "If it is said that only the Shunhetang family is involved in this matter, Sister Xue, do you believe it?" ”
Xue Zheng looked at the golden touch once again thrown into the depths of the blue pool, and shook his head: "Cheng'an Hall and Shunhe Hall, although they are competitive, but after all, there are Baoan Hall and Yulu Hall that are bigger than your Cheng'an Hall, and your new store will not attract such great jealousy." Shunhetang picked on you, which is a little unreasonable to think about. ”
Duan Ling'er cast her eyes on the reflection of the pond water: "It must have been instigated, Xie Ci said that the pair of brothers have always bitten to death and don't know who the master family who arranged for them to live, but the five hundred taels of silver for the white flowers are not something that ordinary people can take." ”
Xue Zheng raised an eyebrow.
Looking at Duan Ling'er's more and more outstanding face and calm amber eyes.
"Since the other party is willing to take five hundred taels out, then he must be ready to crucify me."
In addition to Su Fu, who else has such a big grudge against himself?
Or, apart from the Su family brothers and sisters, who else would be so afraid of opening a medical clinic by themselves?
It seems that the water in the pharmacy managed by Su Yong should be much deeper......
Duan Ling'er was thinking,
Suddenly, he saw Ruyi running so that his hair was scattered, and he jumped a few steps towards his side.
Duan Ling'er's face changed suddenly.
Because Duan Yu's birthday was coming, Ruyi stayed in Duan's mansion for the past few days to help her mother prepare for the birthday banquet, and did not follow her.
"What's wrong?" Duan Ling'er stood up abruptly.
"Girl, something happened to Madame!"
Duanfu side hall.
The eldest lady was dressed in ink-colored silk tufts, and the corners of her mouth were bruised.
Duan Lan, who was sitting on the sunflower banana leaf table in Nanmu, was holding a whip, and the bat hairpin in her temples was already crumbling because of her several large whip swings.
An Niang was beaten to death, and Shen was obviously injured, she threw herself on An Niang, desperately protecting An Niang.
Duan Yu was firmly grabbed by several small servants and pressed his hands and feet on the circle chair, unable to move, so he could only keep struggling and shouting: "Mother! ”
Duan Lan didn't pay attention to Duan Yu's shouts at all, she stared at the two people under her feet with deep disgust, and her hands didn't stop: "You actually dare to harm my mother!" ”
Xiao Su wiped a handful of tears: "Shen Suixin, where did the eldest lady offend you, you want to poison her?" ”
Duan Tianya sat on the main seat, his face was gloomy as if he was about to wring out water.
Shen Shi fell at Duan Tianya's feet: "Master! We didn't do this, we didn't do it, don't beat An Niang anymore! ”
"You didn't do it? These days, you are in charge of the kitchen, I read the book in and out, today except for Ruyi, the girl who went to buy vegetables early in the morning did not set foot in the kitchen, and the people who have been exposed to this snack inside and out, just the two of you! Aunt Jiu, you are my father's aunt, I can't beat you, but today I will beat this Diao slave to death, as for you and your father! ”
Duan Lan said and swung his whip again.
However, a figure flashed, and the whip was firmly grasped by Ruyi.
"You're back!" Duan Lan glared at Ruyi fiercely: "You must also know the inside story of what you Jiufang did, so you will give me an honest explanation!" ”
"Confess what?" Duan Ling'er's voice sounded, and then Duan Ling'er appeared outside the side hall.
There is also a thank you and Xue Zheng by his side.
Duan Lan threw away the whip: "Xiao Jiu! The Shen family poisoned her mother, as a girl from Duanfu, how to deal with this vicious woman, can you tell me? ”
"Mother!" Duan Ling'er stepped forward quickly, wanting to help Shen up.
"Don't let her get up." Duan Tianya's voice suddenly sounded.
Duan Ling'er was stunned: "Father! ”
Duan Xiao opened his mouth on the side: "Sister Nine, human and material evidence proves that it was Aunt Nine who poisoned her mother. ”
What the?
What kind of human and physical evidence prove?
Duan Ling'er's eyes froze.
Suddenly she realized what was going to happen in front of her, and instantly she heard her own speeding heartbeat.
Countless thoughts quickly flashed through my heart.
Someone is going to frame my mother......
Xiao Su stepped forward and pulled Duan Ling'er away: "You Jiufang was not valued by the lord in the past, but the lord still gave you business, and even you, the girl's family, gave the capital to operate, the eldest lady has never stopped the lord in this matter, on the contrary, she has always been in favor, how can you be so wolf-hearted and poison the housewife?" ”
What wolf heart dog lungs?
What poisoning?
What the hell is going on?
Duan Tianya looked at Duan Ling'er with a surprised look on her face, and said, "Today's breakfast was cooked by the people of your ninth room, and everything else is not abnormal, but it is only allowed for the eldest lady."
The dim sum I prepared was poisonous. ”
Poisonous?
Duan Ling'er raised her head and looked at Duan Tianya.
Duan Tianya said: "As soon as your mother had an accident, I asked a doctor to come and see it, and it was that snack that was poisoned." Now your mother has just drunk the antidote potion, and there is no doubt that she will die, but there is no doubt that someone will kill her. ”
Duan Ling'er keenly captured:
Father is talking about "someone", not "nine rooms".
So in fact, he still has doubts, right......
Shen's face was full of tears, and through the tears that kept pouring out, the children in front of him, her husband and the dying An Niang were all vaguely indistinguishable.
Shen felt that his entire world was a blur at this time.
She shook her head and pulled Duan Tianya's trouser legs: "Master! You trust me! I just brought the rest of the snacks and didn't put anything down! ”
Duan Lan smiled ruthlessly: "You didn't get anything?" That's what An Niang put in. That plate of dim sum was specially prepared for my mother, and all of you know that no one else can touch a single chopstick except her. Besides, there was no problem with the previous plate of dim sum, but it was the plate you brought later that was poisoned. Except for An Niang who has been in the kitchen, there is no one else in the kitchen, she does what she does, and you serve it, is there anyone else who can do this? ”
"Wait!" Duan Ling'er interrupted Duan Lan: "My mother has to poison the eldest lady, why?" ”
Everyone was stunned.
Duan Lan was also stunned, and then changed his face again: "Then you have to ask your mother!" Ask me what I'm doing?! Why don't you come and smack her twice, and she'll tell you? ”
"Sister!" Duan Yu shouted: "Mother's relatives won't hurt people!" ”
Duan Ling'er nodded: "My mother naturally won't harm anyone, just now you said that there are witnesses and physical evidence, and this physical evidence is already on the table, what about human evidence?" ”
Three minions flashed in from outside the door, their heads bowed, all dressed as Duanfu house slaves.
Duan Lan was already so angry at this time: "These are the three witnesses, what else do you want to argue for the Shen family?" What other tricks do you want to play? ”
Duan Ling'er had already observed that Duan Lan's anger was not pretended, and the eldest lady's weak appearance was indeed poisoned.
She pulled out a chuckle: "I keep saying that my mother poisoned the eldest lady, how can I also be a child, the eldest sister can almost beat An Niang to death for the sake of the lady, and I don't even have the qualifications to question my mother?"
"Questioning? Good! You may question it! Duan Lan raised his hand and looked at Duan Tianya: "Father! Let these three minions tell Xiao Jiu again! ”
Duan Tianya kept his face calm and only nodded.
Xie Ci and Xue Zheng sat on the guest chair all the time, and the two did not say a word from beginning to end.
But the expressions and movements of the two of them are too different.
Xue Zheng first turned his head sideways and wrote a few words in his maid's hand, and the maid immediately turned around and went out.
However, Xie Ci always stared at everyone in the Duan Mansion present.
One by one, I looked at the expressions of each of them.
Not spared the slightest.
"You say!" Duan Lan ordered, "What did you see?" ”
"Slave, the slave was sweeping the floor in the courtyard outside the kitchen just now, and when I looked up, I saw Aunt Nine poisoned."
"The minions saw it too."
"Slaves too."
Duan Ling'er's eyes swept over the three people, and the three people didn't dare to raise their heads.
She said to Duan Tianya: "Father, Rong Xiaojiu asked them a few words. ”
Duan Tianya still had a calm face and nodded.
