Chapter 55: Nanny Qin said someone wanted to harm Yu and she was unwilling to leave the Xu family

One quarter of Yin time.

A figure quietly climbed into the backyard of Xu's mansion.

Hou Yue ran straight to the kitchen. She knew that in such a wealthy family, the masters and ladies would start preparing breakfast before dawn.

She watched outside for a while and a girl who was stoking the fire dozed off and didn't notice it. She only realized it after the fire had burned out. She quickly relit it and went outside to get firewood.

Hou Yue followed quietly and chopped the little girl's neck off...

Soon, Hou Yue changed her clothes and returned to the stove with the loaded firewood. She yawned and asked, "Is it really the Third Miss today?"

"Of course, the Third Miss is the apple of Madam's eye." The cook glared at her. "Let me tell you in secret, when the Fourth Miss did something wrong, Madam punished her by making her work. She sat right where you are now, burning the fire."

"The fourth young lady is stupid. When the boss speaks quickly, she doesn't understand. If she doesn't understand, she will be beaten. She will shrink in the corner, crying while being beaten. She works slowly and doesn't get any food."

"If it weren't for Nanny Qin and I protecting her, the Fourth Young Lady would have starved to death long ago! There would be no further news..."

"Alas...what's the point of not dying? I was burned to death in the end. I might as well have died back then. It's better than being burned alive."

Hou Yue yawned again, her hands covering most of her face. Her hair was messy, revealing a pair of dark eyes.

"Who is Nanny Qin? I've never heard of her."

"Everyone calls her a blind woman now. Back then, someone accused Miss Jingyang of seducing the guards in the front yard. They searched the guardhouse and found her clothes. Then the Third Miss brought people to beat Jingyang. Jingyang was in poor health and thin, so she ran slowly and was pinned down by the guards. That's when Madam and Nanny Qin arrived."

"Madame Qin tried to push the guards when she saw this, but her skinny body made it impossible for her to do so. Instead, she was pushed to the ground and hit her head against a rock, blinding her. Both eyes were bleeding."

The old woman wiped her eyes as she spoke, "I was smart at that time and hid in the ward room and didn't dare to come out. Otherwise, I would have been blind. If I hadn't called the doctor, the blind woman would have lost too much blood and would have died."

Hou Yue listened intently, "Then Madam didn't stop it?"

At that time, Yu watched coldly from the sidelines. That was Yu's own daughter. Nanny Qin couldn't bear to watch it anymore and rushed out.

This impulse blinded me.

At this point, the old woman said nothing more, as any more words would be framing her master.

"Do you think she's stupid? It's all fate. Miss Jingyang didn't die then, but she died in the end."

Hou Yue lowered her head and said, "That old woman is a very sentimental person, but can she still work if she is blind?"

"Madam, remembering her old feelings for Nanny Qin, sent her to visit the Buddhist temple."

Hou Yue got the information out of the kitchen and left on the pretext of going to the toilet. The old woman continued to scold her for being lazy and having too much shit and urine.

Hou Yue searched for a quarter of an hour before finding the location of the Buddhist temple.

But he didn't expect that Nanny Qin was sitting outside the Buddhist hall, staring outside motionlessly.

Hou Yue was shocked. It was so damn scary.

Nanny Qin’s eyesight was not very good, but her ears could hear clearly.

Hou Yue flipped over to her and said, "Hey, Aunt Qin? Someone wants me to take you away. Do you want to go?"

Nanny Qin turned her head and looked at Hou Yue with her wrinkled face.

"Who are you?"

Hou Yue tutted, "Don't worry about who I am. Do you want to leave here? My boss is a very good person. She will take good care of you."

After saying that, Hou Yue murmured to herself, "My boss said that she knew Xu Jingyang, and Xu Jingyang asked her to take care of you before he died."

Hearing the name Xu Jingyang, Nanny Qin was stunned. She shook her head and said, "You can't leave yet. Madam is still here."

Hou Yue: “???”

"She didn't even care about her own daughter and let you go blind, and you still miss her? What kind of love potion did your wife give you?"

Nanny Qin was firm in her attitude. Hou Yue paced back and forth in the yard. "You can't see, and there's no one here to take care of you. Look how dirty your clothes are, and how thin you are. If your wife really cared about you, would she let a blind person like you live on your own?"

Nanny Qin still refused her: "Madam is very kind to me. Someone here wants to harm Madam. I can't leave."

Hou Yue stamped her feet and said, "Whatever you want!!!"

Hou Yue had never seen such a stupid person. If she went back like this, Jiang Yunzheng wouldn’t deduct her money, right? ! ? ?

Hou Yue returned to Song Mansion Nian Yunzhu, but unexpectedly Jiang Yunzheng was waiting in the yard.

Jiang Yunzheng looked behind her and saw no one. Her eyes reddened. "Where's the person? Did something happen?"

Hou Yue had never seen Jiang Yunzheng react so strongly. Wasn't this woman usually gentle and sharp-tongued, and could remain calm even when faced with a catastrophe?

Hou Yue touched his nose and said, "Well... there's nothing wrong with him. He just doesn't want to come to you."

Jiang Yunzheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and regained her composure. "Why?"

"She said someone in the mansion wanted to harm her wife, and Nanny Qin didn't want to leave."

Someone from the Xu family wants to harm Yu... ?

Jiang Yunzheng frowned slightly. Xu Shibing, Xu Suyuan, Xu Jiashu, Rong Yue... Oh, and Xiao Yu and Chen Yingyu.

There was no reason for Xu Suyuan, Rong Yue and Xu Jiashu to kill their mother, leaving only Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu mother and daughter.

Chen Yingyu had only been in contact with Yu for a short time, so it would be unreasonable for him to kill her.

Only Xu Shibing and Xiao Yu were left.

Jiang Yunzheng sat quietly in front of the stone table, not saying a word.

Hou Yue looked pitiful and couldn't help but said, "I really tried my best! Please don't deduct my money."

Jiang Yunzheng was amused by Hou Yue's expression. Sometimes she really felt that Hou Yue was like Qi Zhenzhen, with a big tail wagging behind him.

Qingying tracked the entire process of how Xu Yinlin was picked up by Jiang Yunzheng and how she was thrown into Linye Lake by Hou Yue in advance, and reported it to Qi Yunshen.

Qingying remembered what she heard Jiang Yunzheng say outside the Jiang family that day.

Fortunately, he had never offended Jiang Yunzheng, otherwise he would have been poisoned to death silently by this woman without knowing it.

Behind the desk, Qi Yunshen was playing with a folded book in his hand, which was filled with Jiang Yunzheng's life story.

Even the dogs that the Jiang family had raised in the past were recorded.

When Xu Jingyang came to Beijing with Prince Yu and Xu Suyuan, Xu Suyuan said that his mother had a headache and wanted to invite Xu Jingyang to see her. It was at this time that Xu's grandfather, who was still alive, recognized Xu Jingyang's identity at a glance.

Almost the next day after arriving in Beijing, Xu Jingyang was arranged to live in the Xu family.

From then on, Xu Jingyang was imprisoned by Yu to learn etiquette, and he rarely had time to leave the house.

Jiang Yunzheng said Xu Jingyang was an old acquaintance of hers.

At that time, Jiang Yunzheng had married into the Shi family and became the young lady of the Shi family. If she wanted to make friends with them, it would most likely be through banquets.

Qi Yunshen asked Qingying to continue investigating.

He turned the ring in his hand with a complicated look in his eyes.
