After hearing this, Chu Xiaoxiao's black eyes sparkled and she smiled, revealing her pink gums.
[Ah! Mother is so powerful and awesome, awesome! ]
Yang: “…”
What is Bang Bang? Da? Does it mean to praise her?
Chu Xiaoxiao had nothing to do after eating and drinking, so she closed her eyes and fell asleep in seconds.
At night, a man in black flew into the air and came to Nanny Lin's room.
He pushed open the door bolt with the tip of the knife and stabbed the raised quilt.
Nanny Lin, who was hiding in the closet, turned pale with fright and quickly covered her mouth, fearing that she would scream and attract the attention of the man in black.
When she heard the little girl talking under her porch a few days ago, she knew something bad was going to happen.
One said, "The old lady is ill and I suspect someone has poisoned her."
Another said: "If it is discovered, the person who poisoned her will surely die a miserable death."
When Nanny Lin thought about it, she became terrified. She was the one who poisoned the old lady, so it would be easy to trace it back to her.
During the day she lay in bed in the room, and at night she hid in a cupboard nearby, stuffing a pillow under the quilt to pretend that someone was there.
The medicine powder was given by Liu Yiyi. She was not afraid of the old lady's investigation, but she was afraid that the silent woman would harm her.
No one in the mansion knew Liu Yiyi's true identity except her. That woman was sent by Prince Duan, and she tried every means to win over the Huguogong Mansion.
The old Duke was a stubborn man. When she was young, she wanted to become his concubine, but even climbing into his bed was useless and she was beaten out.
He also humiliated her severely. She kept this shame and anger in her heart, wanting to find an opportunity to fight back.
Liu Yiyi came to her house and gave her two sons a lot of benefits. She also said that in the future, if they were successful, she would make the eldest son an imperial merchant and the second son an official in the court.
By then, she would no longer be a servant in the Duke of Huguo's Mansion, but a legitimate old lady of an official family.
Who wouldn’t be tempted by such a big **?
Following Liu Yiyi's instructions, Yang was given an inducing drug for labor and the old lady was taken out of the house.
It's a pity that the eldest wife's daughter was not killed, but the poison in the old lady was discovered. Liu Yiyi was afraid of being exposed, so she would definitely send someone to silence her.
She had to be very careful. She didn't want to die. Life at home had just gotten better in recent years. If she died, who would fight for a future for her two sons?
Originally, she wanted to go back to her own home because of her illness, but the old lady sincerely wanted to keep her and would not let her go back.
"You fell ill in my house, so you have to be treated here. Stay here and I'll send a little girl to wait on you."
The old lady always treated her well and did not doubt her actions.
Even if he really suspected her, he would not send anyone to kill her.
This man in black must have been sent by Liu Yiyi.
The man in black heard some noise outside and jumped out of the window for fear of being discovered.
Before he hit the ground, a dagger was stabbed into his chest. Someone covered his mouth and killed him silently.
You must be kidding. The guards of the Duke's Mansion are all retired soldiers. Killing people is just like killing chickens. The old Duke said that they must be killed with one strike and not make any noise.
Nanny Lin, who was hiding in the closet, was so frightened that she didn't dare to come out, fearing that the man in black would come back.
When he crawled out at daybreak, he saw the neat knife marks on the quilt. He was so frightened that his face turned pale and he trembled.
He fell to the ground, unable to crawl back up.
The old lady opened the door and came in, looking at her slumped on the ground. Without saying anything, she closed the door, sat on the edge of the bed, and stared at her condescendingly.
The two sat like this for a long time, and then the old lady said, "The man in black last night is dead."
Nanny Lin raised her head suddenly, terrified: "Miss! You know everything?"
"Miss?" The old lady smiled bitterly, revealing disappointment. "I thought you were blinded by wealth and fame, and had long forgotten the friendship we had when we grew up together."
Nanny Lin was in tears, half out of fear and half out of guilt.
"Miss! Are you okay?"
The old lady nodded calmly: "Yes! It's okay. Ever since you gave me the drug, I have been waiting for you to confess to me. But you never did, so I had no choice but to make you drink all the medicine."
Nanny Lin's eyes widened in disbelief: "Miss! You said I drank the medicine? No wonder the medicine bag in my room disappeared. So it turned out that Miss took it?"
The old lady's expression was calm: "Yes, I took it and put it in the ginseng tea I brought you."
"Miss! How could you treat me like this?" Nanny Lin crawled to the old lady's feet excitedly, "I took care of the Duke of Huguo's Mansion and the young children for you all those years. Even if I didn't have any merits, I worked hard. How could you drug me?"
Looking down at her, the old lady remained silent. After a long while, she asked, "Then how can you drug me? If I die, what can you gain?"
"That medicine won't kill you, it will just make you look extremely weak and make you ..."
Nanny Lin stopped talking abruptly before she finished speaking. Now that she has taken the medicine, is there any need to explain the symptoms?
The old lady looked at her sympathetically and said, "You are already a discarded chess piece. That man came to kill you last night. Go home today! Whether you live or die in the future has nothing to do with me.
Our friendship ends here. Don't blame me for being cruel. From the moment you attacked the eldest brother's wife, there was nothing between us. "
Nanny Lin was shocked. The old lady was really observant and saw through everything. She had also found out that she had given Yang drugs to induce labor?
"I can tolerate you attacking me, but I can't tolerate you attacking my children and grandchildren. They are my bottom line." The old lady stood up and walked around Nanny Lin who was slumped on the ground. "I won't ask you the reason, and you don't have to say anything. Just think that you are old and need to return home to be taken care of."
"But I want to say it."
Nanny Lin knew that today was the last time she would meet the old lady, and there were some things she had to say, which she was most reluctant to do.
"Go ahead!" The old lady turned her back to Nanny Lin, "Tell me what you are dissatisfied with. I'm listening."
"We grew up together, you should understand my temper. I don't like the men of today. I like the old Duke. I want to be his concubine. This is what your mother-in-law promised me when she was dying."
The old lady turned slowly and asked: "Why didn't you say it then?"
"I..." Nanny Lin was speechless.
She didn't dare to say it at that time, for fear of hurting the young lady's feelings.
"If you want to say it, I will definitely fulfill it."
"I asked him, and he disagreed."
Nanny Lin didn't care about shame and told the story of that year.
"You asked him? How come I didn't know?" The old lady was extremely surprised.
Nanny Lin seemed to be struck by lightning: "He didn't tell you?"
The old lady shook her head: "No. Do you suspect that I blocked your way? So you want to kill me?"
Nanny Lin was extremely flustered. She did think so, but it turned out that she was wrong?
The young lady didn't even know that she had climbed into the old duke's bed? Then why did she say it out loud? Can she still keep her reputation?
If she didn't feel upset, why would she drug the young lady?
As a result, the medicine was administered to me. It was retribution, what a retribution!
