The eldest young lady of the Li family was stunned for a moment and stammered.

"Who, who is guilty? It's just that this lady feels that you are not worthy of me to go with you."

Lin Jiuyue had a hint of sarcasm on her face as she walked towards the Li family's eldest young lady.

"Whether you feel guilty or not, you know better than anyone else."

Every time Lin Jiuyue took a step forward, the Li family's eldest young lady took a step back. She didn't stop until she reached the wall.

"Young lady, stop accusing me. The county magistrate will have the final say on whether your rapeseed sprouts have eaten someone who has died. It's not up to you to decide."

Lin Jiuyue raised her hand and touched her chin.

"What you said makes sense. I also believe that the county magistrate will try this case fairly and impartially."

"Since you don't want to go to the county government office with me, then it's up to you."

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, she spread her hands indifferently.

I can't invite the eldest lady of the Li family myself, but I can invite someone from the government.

"I hope that when the government comes to invite you, you can be as tough as you are now."

After Lin Jiuyue finished speaking, she turned and left.

Lai Fu and Lai Cai followed behind Lin Jiuyue.

"Miss, are we going back now?"

"No, I'm going to visit the General's Mansion."

I came back yesterday and haven’t been to the general’s mansion yet.

Gu Chengyan's mother and I have business dealings, so it's unreasonable for her not to know about the incident with the rapeseed sprouts. I have to go and find out what's going on.

Lai Fu and Lai Cai looked at each other.

Do you really want to go to the General's Mansion?

"Miss, are we really going to the General's Mansion?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"What's wrong?"

"Well, Miss, we, we have never been to such a powerful family before, and I am a little scared."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

"Look at how little you have accomplished! Are you scared by a general's mansion? You are my servants, Lin Jiuyue, and you will go to many places in the future. Just treat the general's mansion as an ordinary place. Don't be afraid."

Lai Fu and Lai Cai swallowed and nodded.

"Yes, miss."

He brought Lai Fu and Lai Cai to the general's mansion. The guard at the door was someone who had seen Lin Jiuyue before.

"Miss Lin is here? Please come in."

Lai Fu Lai Cai: ...

My young lady came to the general's mansion, but the people in the general's mansion didn't even bother to inform her and just let her in? Is my young lady so proud?

Under the guidance of the servants in the general's mansion, Lin Jiuyue arrived at Mrs. Gu's courtyard, while Lai Fu and Lai Cai were arranged to another place.

"Jiuyue, when did you arrive in the capital? Aunt Gu just heard about your return two days ago. I thought it would take a few days for you to arrive in the capital, but I didn't expect you to arrive so soon."

Lin Jiuyue bowed to Madam Gu.

"Aunt Gu, September just arrived yesterday."

Mrs. Gu looked at Lin Jiuyue in surprise.

"You just arrived yesterday? You must have traveled so hard on the road. Why didn't you take a rest?"

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"Aunt Gu, Jiuyue came back for something, and besides, I rested yesterday. I came to the capital today to see Aunt Gu."

Mrs. Gu poured tea into the cup beside her and placed it in front of Lin Jiuyue.

"Jiuyue came to see Aunt Gu. Is there something you want to tell Aunt Gu?"

Lin Jiuyue said "hmm".

"Aunt Gu, Jiu Yue's servants were taken to the government office. They said the rapeseed sprouts they sold killed someone. Hasn't Aunt Gu heard about this?"

Lin Jiuyue's rapeseed sprouts are also supplied to Mrs. Gu's restaurant. When something like this happens at home, Mrs. Gu shouldn't be unaware of it.

When Mrs. Gu heard Lin Jiuyue's words, she looked at her in surprise.

"Jiuyue, what did you say? You said something happened to rapeseed? And your servant was arrested and taken to the government office?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"Auntie Gu, your restaurant also sells rapeseed moss. You should have heard whether eating rapeseed moss can kill people."

Mrs. Gu did not answer Lin Jiuyue's words, but directly called the servants and asked them to go down and inquire.

"Jiuyue, you stay at Aunt Gu's place for a while. Once the servants have investigated everything, we can talk about the rest later."

If Lin Jiuyue hadn't come to see Mrs. Gu, Mrs. Gu still wouldn't know that something had happened to the rapeseed sprouts.

Lin Jiuyue had the same idea.

"Aunt Gu, Jiu Yue also has the same idea."

While waiting for the servants to return, Lin Jiuyue and Madam Gu talked a lot about what they had seen and heard on the battlefield, which made Madam Gu's face full of longing.

"Madam, this old servant has brought the shopkeeper here."

Mrs. Gu stopped chatting with Lin Jiuyue and looked up at the shopkeeper. After asking about the matter, she realized that it was not that the shopkeeper did not know, but that he thought the rapeseed sprouts had been sold out for a while, so he did not send it to the restaurant.

After dismissing the restaurant owner, Mrs. Gu said to Lin Jiuyue apologetically.

"Jiuyue, Aunt Gu didn't pay enough attention to this matter. If she had paid more attention, you wouldn't have to come here to find out."

Lin Jiuyue smiled.

"Aunt Gu, as the wife of the General's Mansion, you not only have to worry about the affairs of the General's Mansion, but also about business matters. It is inevitable that you will be negligent. Jiu Yue can understand."

Although rapeseed sprouts are a rare thing, they are not so rare that they require the general's wife to pay constant attention to them.

"Jiuyue, you told Aunt Gu earlier that your servant was thrown into jail because of the rapeseed moss incident. Do you have a solution to this problem?"

Lin Jiuyue shook her head.

"This case hasn't even been tried yet. Aunt Gu ate rapeseed sprouts planted in September, so she should know whether there's anything wrong with them. This is just a frame-up."

After hearing this, Mrs. Gu frowned.

This girl is usually quite easy to get along with, so why is she suddenly being targeted? Is it because the rapeseed moss made money and someone is jealous?

"Jiuyue girl, have you offended someone?"

September smiled bitterly.

"Aunt Gu, it was my servant who offended someone."

Mrs. Gu: ...

So, September girl was implicated by the servants this time?

I have only heard of servants being implicated by their masters. This is the first time I have heard of a master being implicated by his servants.

"Jiuyue girl, your luck is really too good..."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

"Aunt Gu, please stop laughing at Jiuyue..."

"Okay, okay, Aunt Gu, don't laugh. Aunt Gu, don't laugh. Let's talk about business."

"Jiuyue, do you need Aunt Gu's help?"

Lin Jiuyue wanted to say no, but thought about it. If she handled this matter alone, it might be very slow. If Aunt Gu could help her, Xiyue and the others would be able to come out at any time.

"Aunt Gu, Jiuyue won't be polite to you then."

Mrs. Gu waved her hand.

"Kid, why are you being so polite to Aunt Gu?"
