Shen Yancheng personally fed Dong Nuan with medicine, and went to do what Mrs. Tai said.

After the shadow guard placed the bones in a proper place, he came back to report the situation to Shen Yancheng.

He took a piece of jade pendant and handed it to Shen Yancheng, and said: "The subordinates put the bones in a safe place, this was taken from the bones, and the other body was a woman in her 20s, who had been dead for about fifteen years. ”

"Got it, you go down first!"

When the shadow guard left, Shen Yancheng picked up the jade pendant and looked at it carefully for a long time, but he didn't see anything.

So he decided to go to Mrs. Tai.

Until Shen Yancheng came to her after finishing his errands, she sent everyone away in advance.

There were only two grandchildren left in the room.

"Grandmother, the shadow guard has placed the bones in the dry well to a safe place, and found a jade pendant on his body, you can see if you recognize it."

Mrs. Tai took the jade pendant and looked through it carefully, it seemed to be a little familiar, where had she seen it.

"What else did the shadow guard say?"

"The skeleton was a woman in her 20s when she died, and she had been dead for about fifteen years."

Speaking of fifteen years, Mrs. Tai suddenly remembered a person, and looked at the jade pendant again, the more she looked at it, the more it looked, and her heart turned a thousand times.

At the beginning, Zhao Qing wrote a letter and left the house, and fifteen years later found the bones in the dry well.

What happened back then, maybe she should go to her eldest son.

Mrs. Tai frowned and said to Shen Yancheng: "I know about this, you can ask for leave to stay at home for a few days these days." ”

"Then I'll send someone to Qinghe Academy to ask for leave."

Speaking of Qinghe Academy, Mrs. Tai suddenly remembered Xing Yu, the grandson of Xing's mother.

begged him in public to marry Dong Nuan, and he also studied at Qinghe Academy in the future, it seems that he has made up his mind.

"Cheng'er, Xing's mother's grandson is also going to Qinghe Academy to study, you should pay more attention to him in the future."

"Grandmother, why is that?"

"Mother Xing came back this time and brought her grandson, as soon as she saw me, she said that she wanted to marry Dong Nuan, although I didn't agree, but I was afraid that I would not give up looking at the child's appearance!"

Grandmother's words made Shen Yancheng even more uncomfortable, as if his own things had been snatched away.

"Grandmother, what's that man's name?"

Mrs. Tai thought for a while and said, "It's called Xing Yu." Shen Yancheng secretly planned to check Xing Yu's origin in his heart.

"If you have an idea, you can go back first! Dong Nuan is staying with you for the time being, she is weak, and you let the maid take care of her. ”

"Grandson knows."

When Shen Yancheng left, Yun Xiang, who had been sent to find Erya, came back.

I happened to meet Shen Yancheng at the door, but I didn't expect to ask her: "Who is Dong Nuan close to on weekdays?" ”

"Except for me, Mrs. Tai, and Mother Xing, there is only the second girl who lives with Dong Nuan. But she was gone. ”

Shen Yancheng frowned, as soon as the little girl had an accident, she disappeared, and it must have something to do with this matter.

So he asked, "What do you mean it's gone?" ”

"There is no one in the room, and the slave and maid have also looked for it in the house and have not seen anyone."

She went to find someone according to Mrs. Tai's instructions, and vaguely guessed that it had something to do with Dong Nuan's matter, so she searched very carefully, but I still didn't find it.

"Alright, I'll send someone to find it."

Yun Xiang saluted and walked towards Mrs. Tai's room.

After entering the room, Mrs. Tai hurriedly asked, "Can you find that girl?" ”

"I didn't find it, I found all the places I should have looked, if I want to check carefully, I'm afraid the news will be revealed."

Mrs. Tai was a little uneasy, just the warm winter was enough for her to have a headache, and now there is another Zhao Qing.

I'm afraid that this Protectorate Mansion will not be peaceful.

"Just now, the slave maid met the second young master, and asked the slave maid some things."

"And you said it all?"

Yun Xiang felt that what she had done was not quite right, but it was too late to say anything. lowered his head and said, "The slave is wrong, but the young master said that he would send someone to find Erya." ”

Mrs. Tai, who didn't know what to say, had a faint pain in her temples at this time, but it was already like this, and there was no way.

"Yunxiang, you go and send someone to find Grandpa Guo, just say that I have something to find him, let him come back quickly."

knew that she had done something wrong, so when she heard Mrs. Tai tell her to do something, she ran out to find someone very neatly.

It wasn't until it was dark that Grandpa Guo arrived at the house. He didn't know what his mother was looking for him. But if you think about it carefully, her mother, who has never looked for him, suddenly found herself, presumably something big happened in the house.

rushed straight to Shou'an Hall, didn't see a little maid behind him seeing him, and secretly went to Qingyueju.

Mrs. Tai had already thought about what to say, and as soon as she saw her son, she spoke directly: "Today, a maid next to me was killed by a traitor and fell into the dry well in the deserted courtyard of the mansion. ”

"There is such a thing, my mother needs to find out."

Mrs. Tai shook her hand and continued: "This girl has a big life, she was saved by Cheng'er, the maid who lived in the same room with her is gone, she has not seen it in the house, and most importantly, a skeleton was found in the dry well. ”

Grandpa Guo was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Who died in the dry well?" ”

He looked at his son and sighed.

"Do you remember Zhao Qing?"

How could he not remember that Zhao Qing was brought to the mansion by himself and lived here for nearly a year.

But what did her mother mean when she asked Zhao Qing?

"Mother, what's wrong with Zhao Qing?"

"The shadow guard took a jade pendant from the bones, you can see if it's hers." Mrs. Tai handed the jade pendant to Grandpa Guo.

He looked at it himself, it was indeed Zhao Qing's, and the jade pendant was her love affair with her husband, and it was impossible to give it away.

It's just that why is it on the dry bones, it is not that the dry bones are Zhao Qing, it is impossible, Zhao Qing wrote a letter to leave.

"Mother, it is indeed her jade pendant. It's just that the dry bones don't have to be her. ”

"An'er, Ying Wei has examined the autopsy, fifteen years, how can it be so coincidental!"

Grandpa Guo lowered his head and thought about the events of the year.

Seeing that her son was absent-minded, Mrs. Tai asked, "Tell me the truth, what is your relationship with Zhao Qing, I didn't ask much when I brought her into the mansion." ”

"Mother, her husband died for me, and asked me to take good care of his wife before she died, so I brought her back."

Thinking about many situations, but not thinking of this, Mrs. Tai's heart softened, and she lowered her voice, "Then why did her bones appear in the dry well." ”

"Mother... I don't know. At the beginning, she left a letter when she left, so I didn't think much of it. ”

"You're confused! If you had found her, perhaps she would not have died, and she would not have been in the dry well for fifteen years. ”

Grandpa Guo blamed himself very much, there were two reasons why he didn't go to look for it at the beginning, one was because he really thought that Zhao Qing had returned to his parents' house, and the other was because he could feel that his wife was very annoying to the woman he brought back.

It's also a thought difference

Thinking of this, I suddenly realized that Zhao Qing's death in the dry well was not related to his wife?

He didn't dare to think about it, if it was true, then he owed two lives, how to pay it back.

"My son was wrong."

Seeing that her son had admitted her mistake, Mrs. Tai said, "Since you know that you are wrong, you will give justice to the deceased." ”

"Good!"

"I know, you don't plan to let Yu'er inherit the title, so you cultivate Cheng'er everywhere, but you also have to care more about your own biological son."

"My son knows!"

"Alright, let's go! You can't leave until you get things straight. ”

Grandpa Guo saluted, "Yes!" ”

Out of Shou'an Hall, Grandpa Guo was a little overwhelmed, with such a large Guogong Mansion, he didn't seem to have a place to go.

His mother told him to look into the matter, and that he should talk to his wife.

Last time, because she did something wrong, the two had a fight, and they haven't been together for a long time.

The eldest lady had already received the news and knew that Grandpa Guo was coming in the direction of Qingyueju, and hurriedly asked Zhixue to comb her hair again.

Everyone knows the habits of the eldest lady, and the intellectually distant ones are far away, and only Zhixue and the eldest lady are in the room.

Zhixue, who learned that Dong Nuan was rescued, thought about it and said to the eldest lady: "Madam, the slave and maid are not doing well, and Dong Nuan was rescued." ”

"What did you say?"

Zhixue knelt on the ground and replied: "The slave doesn't know, everything was going well, but the second young master came back suddenly, just arrived at the dry well, and saved Dong Nuan." ”

"No wonder! As soon as Dong Nuan was in trouble, the second young master came back to save people, what you said was really right. Zhixue didn't know how to reply, just kneeling blindly.

"Okay, Grandpa Guo will be here soon, comb my hair first, and then talk about this later."

Knowing that the eldest lady would not blame herself, Zhixue stood up and continued to comb her hair.

When Grandpa Guo arrived, Zhixue just combed the eldest lady's hair.

I don't know when I stood behind the eldest lady and stared at the person in the mirror.

After a while, the eldest lady found Grandpa Guo, smiled, and said to Zhixue: "You go out first!" ”

He turned to look at Grandpa Guo and asked, "We haven't seen each other for a long time." ”

Grandpa Guo looked at the room and sat down at the table in the distance.

"Zhao Qing, do you remember?"

The eldest lady was stunned, pretended to touch her hair, and said, "Zhao Qing, who is it?" ”

Knowing that his wife was playing dumb, he said, "I know you remember." ”

"What do you mean, I remember it, I don't remember it." The eldest lady was very angry at this time, she thought she could get along well today, but she didn't expect it to be for that slut.

"Zhao Qing died in the mansion."

The eldest lady pretended to be surprised and said, "How come, didn't she write a letter and leave?" ”

At this time, Grandpa Guo can be sure that Zhao Qing's death is really related to his wife.

"I never said, she wrote the letter, how do you know."

"Jin An, I'm afraid you forgot, you told me."

Hoping that Mrs. would tell the truth, Grandpa Guo asked again: "I said, I never told you that she wrote to me, how did you know." ”

At this time, the eldest lady was a little panicked, "If you didn't say it, probably someone told me." ”

"Who told you?"

The eldest lady clasped her palm and said, "It's been so many years, where do I remember who it is?" And even if you remember who it is, I'm afraid it's not in the house. ”

"Really? What if I find proof! ”
