They followed the carriage around the town for most of the time, and it turned out that the coachman was from that village, and the village was too far away from the town, and it was not easy for him to come out, and he had to carry a lot of things for the people of the village.

After sitting in the car for most of the day, the three of them were tired. Zhuang Meiyan leaned against the carriage, her body rose and fell with the bumps of the carriage, Chunju had already curled up and fallen asleep in the corner, and her mother put her head on her lap, and she also fell asleep.

The mother's hair was black and shiny, slightly hanging down to block half of her face, her skin was snow-white, her expression was serene, and the corners of her eyes showed fine crow's feet, but these wrinkles were not annoying, but added a bit of mature charm to her. Indeed, her age is not yet forty years old, it is a woman's most mature moment, when her mother was young, she was a standard beauty, even now, if her mother is not crazy, she will still be a beauty after taking care of her life and dressing up.

In fact, if you look closely, she has many similarities with her mother, but unfortunately, the red mole on her face is ......

If the mother is not crazy, she will definitely be favored by the father, and as a wife, she will be able to preside over the overall situation of the Zhuang Mansion, and she does not have this viviparous red mole on her face, then ...... Father and son are filial piety, knees are happy, and enjoy the joy of family;

Yesterday, when Jiang Yutang helped her treat her illness and expel the poison, he discussed with her about her poisoning, and strangely, when she asked Chunju to bring the rest of the chicken soup to Jiang Yutang to check, he frowned.

After Jiang Yutang's careful inspection, the chicken soup turned out to be non-toxic. This puzzled everyone, Jiang Yutang thought for a moment before saying: "The sign of the third miss's poisoning is definitely arsenic, but the amount is very slight, only because the young lady has a special physique, so the reaction will be more obvious - if you change to an ordinary person, not only will you not have a seizure, but you will be fine." ”

"But this is only a superficial phenomenon, the toxins are not excreted from the body, but will slowly accumulate until a certain amount is reached, and then it will be fatal. Because the toxin enters the bones, ordinary autopsy methods cannot detect it at all, and the truth can only be obtained by cremation and refining of bones. ”

When he said this, his heart was cold, this method was really vicious, if it weren't for his special physique, and he met Jiang Yutang to help him, I am afraid that this life would be gone. She failed to seek death three times and twice, and when she was killed, it seemed that God had eyes and wanted her to live to seek justice for herself.

She couldn't help but ask:

"Sir, how did this poison get into me?"

"This bowl of chicken soup?!" Jiang Yutang carefully looked at the chicken soup in the bowl, and said with a smile: "Poultry that is more than five years old will form natural toxins in the body, which will be stored in the bones, take the bones and boil the soup, and if there is no abnormality, take it every day, it is as poisonous as arsenic." ”

Zhuang Meiyan's heart moved, she didn't know that poisoning could be done so secretly, and ordinary ingredients could actually kill people.

As a result of this, she can only be suspicious, but there is no conclusive evidence, and even if she makes a fuss, she will not get anything good. She is indeed too shallow in the world, and she doesn't know that people's hearts are sinister, and she didn't expect that she would retreat again and again, and she had already handed over all the bracelets, but they were still unwilling to let go of herself, and they were bent on putting themselves to death.

Thinking about this, she looked at her mother's sleeping face, and suddenly a vague thought suddenly appeared in her heart, and she was about to try to catch it clearly, but her mother's body twitched a few times, interrupting her train of thought.

The mother looked pained, she closed her eyes and waved her arms, and screamed in a low voice.

"Xi'er, Xi'er. ”

"Yan'er, Yan'er. ”

"Don't be afraid...... Don't be afraid, mother. ”

Zhuang Meiyan's heart softened, and she hugged her mother's body tightly. Although her mother is crazy, she can't remember anything, and she doesn't do things like ordinary people, but she always remembers her children in her heart.

Chunju woke up suddenly, with a pair of hazy sleepy eyes, and said in a daze:

"Madame, Mademoiselle, are we here?"

Zhuang Meiyan waved her hand and signaled Chunju not to speak loudly, so as not to frighten her mother, who was afraid of being stimulated by her illness. Sure enough, the mother writhed in pain and screamed loudly.

Zhuang Meiyan hugged her mother tightly in her arms and comforted her softly:

"Mother, mother, Yan'er is here. ”

"Where's Xi'er?" the mother asked with red eyes, "Where did you get my Xi'er?"

The mother was in tears and was about to cry, Zhuang Meiyan hurriedly coaxed:

"Mother, why did you forget? Didn't my brother go to the school to study!"

"Study...... Xi'er ...... Study...... Champion Lang, riding a big horse, wearing saffron. The mother seemed to understand whether she understood or not, and her usual silly smile appeared on her face.

Zhuang Meiyan felt sour in her heart, leaving the seventh brother alone in the mansion was really a last resort, and it was better to explain a little bit to take her mother away - everyone in the mansion knew that her mother's illness was inseparable from her at all, and the mansion was unwilling to take care of this burden. The seventh brother is different, he is the son-in-law of the family, although he is despised, but after all, he is the son-in-law, and it is impossible to say that he will be taken away.

At that time, the mother-in-law Liu will be suspicious, and the whole plan will fail.

She could only endure the pain and leave her seventh brother in the house.

The carriage shook violently a few times, and at last it slowly stopped, and the coachman shouted, "Miss, you have arrived at the place." ”

It's finally here!

The old house is where my father lived before his father's career. My father's family is also in Qiyang Town, the Zhuang family is a big family, and my father's family was excluded by the clan because of their poor background, and they moved to this remote village to live in anger. My father studied hard in the books of sages since he was a child, and later went to Beijing to take the exam, but he did not get fame in the exam, wore saffron, rode a high horse, and then married a rich lady, and returned to his hometown in style.

He fell to Sun Shan, and when he was the most disappointed in his life, he met his mother.

These are all things that her mother told her when she was very young, and her mother's mother told her that when she said this, Chang's mother looked ugly, and she cried every time she spoke.

Zhuang Meiyan slowly got out of the carriage, although she already knew from Chang's mother's account that her father's old house was a little dilapidated, she was still shocked by the scene in front of her.

Chunju, who got out of the car behind her, blurted out: "Is this house for people to live in?"

What unfolded in front of them was a dilapidated three-room adobe house, overgrown with weeds, apparently unvisited for years. The house was in disrepair, most of the wooden windows on both sides were rotten, leaving only large black holes, the north wind made a strange screeching sound through the house, and the roof had begun to collapse in some places, and some dirt was rolling down from time to time.

It seems that my father has never come back over the years, and the house has forgotten this place, and when the house was rebuilt, it was directly selected for another location, which is now the Zhuangjia Courtyard, which is fifty or sixty miles away from here.

The house really didn't look like it was habitable, as if it would collapse if a gust of wind blew.

Chunju muttered again, "This can't be lived at all, let's go back, miss." ”

"Why can't you live?" a loud and steady voice sounded behind them.

Zhuang Meiyan turned his head to look at this person.
