Chapter 54: Doubts

Jia Cong's strong intervention directly suppressed the old woman who was still shouting.

Aunt Lu was so frightened that she didn't even continue, covering her mouth and avoiding Jia Cong's cold eyes in shock.

The methods she used before seemed to have lost their effect, whether it was Daiyu or Jia Cong, she didn't take what she did to heart at all.

"Aunt Lu, what are you waiting for if you don't go down yet?"

Daiyu was also tired of such private things in the back house, and didn't bother to pay attention to Aunt Lu's small actions. Seeing that he was still rubbing in the front hall, he motioned to Mama Li to drive Aunt Lu and them out.

"Brother Cong, how is my father? What did Imperial Doctor Li say? ”

After Jia Cong sat down, Daiyu personally handed over a cup of tea and asked about the pulse.

I only heard Jia Cong say: "I came to tell Sister Lin about this, according to Elder Li's diagnosis, my uncle is not sick, but poisoned." However, Sister Lin can rest assured that Elder Li has already detoxified his uncle again, but his uncle needs to recuperate during this time......"

Different from what Jia Cong had expected before, Daiyu was not shocked, but clutched the account book in her hand tightly, and her originally red and swollen eyes were filled with tears again.

Daiyu bit her lip tightly, endured the grief in her heart, choked up and said, "Is it poisoned again?" I said that my father has always been strong, how could he suddenly be so sick. Did Imperial Doctor Li say what kind of poison was in Daddy? Was it poisoned at home? ”

"I haven't found out yet, my father has asked the second brother to temporarily take over the affairs of the house, and I think that with the second brother's ability, he will soon be able to arrest the person who poisoned him."

At this point, Jia Cong still believes in Jia Lian's ability, and over the years, Jia Lian has dealt with the big and small affairs of Rongguo Mansion, and there has not even been a single omission. Compared to the mess in Rongguo Mansion, the Lin family is much easier to manage.

At this time, Mama Li came over with a middle-aged woman and introduced Daiyu: "Big girl, this is Mother Zhong in Aunt Fang's yard, Aunt Fang sent her here to hand over the right card key, and the master has let Aunt Fang take care of the house for the past two years." ”

I saw that Mother Zhong gave Daiyu a blessing gift, and then handed a pair of cards to Daiyu: "The slave maid greets the eldest girl, our aunt said that since the eldest girl is back, the eldest girl is naturally in charge of the affairs in this house." If the eldest girl is not clear about what she needs help with, she can send the maid to Zhiqing Yuan to say, and the slave will arrive immediately. ”

"It turned out to be Aunt Fang's housekeeper, so let's continue to put this pair of card keys in Aunt Fang's."

Daiyu is quite familiar with the other aunt, she was the big girl next to her mother Jia Min, and later became an aunt, Daiyu often went to her to play when she was young, and it was not until she went to the capital later that she had less contact.

I saw Daiyu push back the pair of cards: "Aunt Fang is also an old man in the family, so I won't beat around the bush." I don't know how long I'll stay when I go home this time, but things in the house are still according to the old rules. Today's play is singing to outsiders, to see if anyone has other thoughts during the days when my father is seriously ill. Mother Zhong went back and told Aunt Fang that she didn't have to shy away from anything, what she was like before and what she is still like now, and I will go and talk to her when I have leisure tomorrow. ”

Mother Zhong didn't expect Daiyu to tell the matter so directly, and sighed after a short period of surprise: "My aunt is also worried that the eldest girl is in charge for the first time, if she comes, it will make people think that her aunt has the heart to fight for power and profit, and she is worried about unnecessary misunderstandings." Otherwise, my aunt would have come to meet the eldest girl a long time ago, where would the people from Qinxinyuan run to the front! ”

Daiyu smiled dumbly, she didn't expect that after three years away from home, the back house of the Lin Mansion would also have a house fight.

She shook her head, briefly comforted Mother Zhong, and finally personally escorted her out of the door of the front hall.

After Daiyu returned to the room and sat down again, Jia Cong took a sip of the teacup, and said quietly: "This Aunt Fang is quite interesting, unlike that Aunt Lu, who even forgot to be inferior and humble......"

Unexpectedly, Daiyu stared at the ledger in her hand and sighed, "But I'm not sure if I can trust Aunt Fang now." ”

Well?

"Why?"

After Daiyu glanced at the purple cuckoo guarding the door, she explained to Jia Cong in a low voice: "Aunt Fang is the maid that my grandmother personally chose for her mother back then, and my father and brother are still in Rongguo Mansion." It can be said that she is the most trusted person in the Lin family's back house, I, the eldest girl of the Lin family. But you can see that she is deliberately distancing herself from me. Brother Cong, do you think I should still believe her? ”

"That's ......"

After Daiyu said this, Jia Cong also felt that this Aunt Fang's behavior was a little suspicious.

Daiyu is the niece of Rongguofu, she is an aunt who was born in Rongguofu's family, she is not loyal to her, but also has an attitude of avoiding suspicion, is she planning to let Daiyu go back to learn from her father and brother?

Could it be that she is a person with a cold temperament and indifferent feelings?

Daiyu didn't continue to say anything, and after thinking for a while, she said to Jia Cong: "Brother Cong, you do me a favor and let someone check how Aunt Fang's parents and brothers have been doing in the past few years?" Check the correspondence between them and Aunt Fang again, etc. ”

Jia Cong nodded: "This is not difficult, but Sister Lin, is it possible that you suspect that Aunt Fang has a problem just because of this?" ”

"Actually, I don't know why, but I just feel that something is wrong, especially when Mother Zhong told me that Aunt Fang has been a good Buddha in the past few years, and she also said that Aunt Fang has been copying scriptures and praying for her father these days."

Daiyu said abruptly: "If I remember correctly, I saw several Taoist scriptures at Aunt Fang's when I was a child, how could she convert to Buddhism so quickly?" ”

……

Daiyu has never felt the great changes in the Lin family so clearly, the backyard of the Lin family is simple, except for Aunt Fang, who originally lived in Zhiqing Courtyard, only Aunt Lu of Qinxin Yuan has been added in recent years.

However, it is precisely because of this Aunt Lu that the back house of the Lin Mansion will become chaotic because of the appearance of an Aunt Lu, which will disturb the peace of the mansion.

It is said that Aunt Fang, the housekeeper, has no way to take Aunt Lu, and Lin Ruhai has been busy with salt politics in recent years, and rarely pays attention to the affairs of the inner house, which makes Aunt Fang gradually lose control of going to the Lin family's back house.

After spending a whole day, Daiyu had basically figured out the changes of the Lin family in the past three years.

In just three years, she has changed from a Taoist to a loyal Buddhist, and it is said that there are no less than hundreds of taels of silver given to the Buddhist temple every year.

You must know that Aunt Fang's parents and brothers are still working as slaves in Rongguo Mansion.

Just as she was thinking about the unusual, Jia Lian asked her to invite her to the study to talk.
