"What's wrong, Yaoyao?" Cui Niang stroked her back in the dark.

"Mom, I'm going back to the capital tomorrow."

"Why is it so fast?" Cui Niang asked in surprise. She knew that Shen Jie couldn't stay as an official for long, and she didn't expect it to be so sudden.

"My husband has seven days off during the Chinese New Year, three days before the New Year and four days after the New Year. He has to be on duty on the fifth day." Du Yaoyao said.

It is customary to go back to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year. She can only stay for one day on the third day and has to set off again tomorrow morning.

Cui Niang was reluctant to let go, "Yaoyao, can you stay for a few more days?"

Du Yaoyao was silent. This trip back was not only because of Chen Jie's duty, but also because the eighth day of the first lunar month was the birthday of Chen Jie's grandfather, Mr. Lin.

Logically, Du Yaoyao should accompany her husband to the Lin Mansion to celebrate the birthday of her elders. But at this moment, when she thought of this day, she felt a chill down her spine.

The original owner killed Lin Shuwan on the eighth day of the first lunar month and later suffered retribution.

The book wrote that the original owner pushed Lin Shuwan into the water, causing Lin Shuwan to drown. After she was promoted to prime minister, she exchanged her life for his.

When Du Yaoyao read the book, she thought the original owner was arrogant and domineering, and was a moron. After experiencing the original owner's life, she felt that Lin Shuwan's fall into the water was not as simple as she had imagined.

After getting married, she cheated on her husband for three years without any success. The original owner did not even suspect that her black-hearted husband, Chen Jie, was behind her. She continued to foolishly mess around with other men and even climbed into her cousin's bed and was caught in the act.

This IQ is really worrying!

The original owner definitely did not plan in advance to attack Lin Shuwan. No one is stupid enough to harm someone in their home and wait for someone to find fault with them.

Du Yaoyao guessed that the original owner might have been instigated and committed the evil act in anger.

Who instigated it? Who is the mastermind behind the secret plan? She didn't know.

Du Yaoyao could choose not to go back, as she was afraid that something bad would happen to her while she was at home. If Lin Shuwan died according to the plot in the book, this basin of dirty water, thrown on her head by someone with ulterior motives, would still not be washed away even if she jumped into the Yellow River.

The original owner had a domineering personality and had resented Lin Shuwan because Chen Jie had a verbal engagement with his cousin.

When someone dies, even if you didn't do it, when suspicion is pointed at you, the family of the deceased will inevitably feel upset.

Du Yaoyao wanted to help Lin Shuwan escape this disaster, find out the real culprit behind the scenes, and clear the original owner of the unjust accusation. Similarly, it is also to seek a way out for oneself.

She is confident that she will not be instigated or provoked by anyone. Moreover, Shen Jie's attitude towards her and the original owner is completely different.

Shen Jie would not let her die casually, at least not now.

The idea is nice, but she is still worried that man cannot conquer nature, and she cannot change the plot and her own inevitable death.

Du Yaoyao sighed, hugged Cui Niang tightly, and declined, "Mother, the eighth day of the first lunar month is my husband's grandfather's birthday. As his granddaughter-in-law, I have to go and celebrate the old man's birthday."

Seeing Cui Niang depressed, she comforted her, "Mother, when the situation in the capital is stable, Yaoyao will come back to live with you for a long time, or I will take you to live with me for a while. I am very bored staying at home alone."

"Okay, okay," Cui Niang agreed with tears in her eyes, "Mother will wait for you."

"Well, mother..." Du Yaoyao curled up in Cui Niang's chest.
