Chapter 1140 Wang Jiayi is caught red-handed
Before Granny Zhang could finish speaking, Shu Yu interrupted her, "Auntie, the tea in my room was indeed not brought by her. There was a pot of tea in the room at first, but when we returned to the room, a maid came over with a teapot and said that the original tea had gone cold and that she would replace it with a hot one."
Upon hearing this, Granny Zhang hurriedly explained, "How could that be? Madam Feng only asked me to put the tea in the room after she heard that the young lady had finished eating the bird's nest porridge. The tea is still hot and there is no need to change it."
At this point, everyone present knew that something was wrong.
Someone switched the tea, intending to harm Shu Yu.
Yao Tianqin and his wife's faces immediately turned extremely ugly. Shu Yu was their guest, who had come from afar and was staying at their residence for a night, only to encounter such a thing.
Fortunately, he had the antidote given to him by Doctor Zhao; otherwise, the perpetrators would have succeeded.
Madam Yao was furious and stood up abruptly. "Bo'er's wife, go and find all the servants in the mansion and bring them here so that A-Yu can identify them. I want to see who is so audacious as to dare to lay a hand on A-Yu."
After saying that, remembering that Madam Kang was pregnant, she immediately changed her mind, "Never mind, it's inconvenient for you to go with your heavy body, let Bo'er go..."
After saying that, she realized Yao Bo wasn't there. Madam Yao was stunned. "Where's Bo'er?"
This is outrageous! With such a huge incident happening to Ayu, he's just vanished without a trace.
Kang said somewhat embarrassedly, "After Brother Bo found out that Sister Ayu was alright, he saw that the wind was a bit strong and we had come out in a hurry, so he went back to get me a cloak."
He added, somewhat puzzled, "He's been gone for a while now; by now he should have gotten it back."
Madam Yao frowned, not caring about him at the moment, and simply called for Mama Feng to go.
The Yao family didn't have many servants, and most of them had come running over after hearing the commotion, while the rest were quickly summoned as well.
Shu Yu looked over, frowned, and shook her head. "They're not among them."
Madam Yao was surprised. "Not them? But all the servants in the manor are here."
Kang said in a low voice, "None of the servants that my cousin Yao Hong brought are here."
Upon hearing this, Yao Hong jumped up as if her tail had been stepped on. "What does my sister-in-law mean by this? Does she suspect that we are going to harm Lu Xiangjun?"
That's what she said, but her reaction was really exaggerated.
Madam Yao couldn't help but squint slightly. Yao An hurriedly pulled Yao Hong aside and explained to Madam Yao, "Aunt, please don't take offense. My sister just didn't sleep well last night and is a little short-tempered. I'll have all the servants she brought gathered together so that Lord Lu can get to know them properly."
Madam Yao nodded without being polite.
Yao An turned around to call for someone, but his expression darkened.
He hadn't expected that Lu Xiangjun would have some kind of antidote, which ruined his plan.
Fortunately, that maid is usually inconspicuous, so with a little tidying up, there shouldn't be any major problems.
However, at that moment, Cai'er suddenly ran over in a panic, "Master, Madam, Young Mistress, something, something has happened."
"What happened?" Madam Yao felt a twitch in her eyelids and a bad premonition flashed through her mind.
Cai'er let out a breath, "Someone put drugs in the tea in the young master's room, but the young master caught them red-handed."
The Yao family was shocked. "What did you say?"
