Chapter 514 Bought by Someone
Xu Muhua was stunned, watching the two of them staring at her firmly, with a hint of stubbornness. It seemed that they would cry if she didn't let them participate.
After a while, she smiled and exhaled, "Okay, it's my elder sister who worries too much. I always treated you as children and didn't notice that you have grown up."
Of course, she didn't think of raising her two brothers and sisters into flowers in a greenhouse. She just wanted to protect them behind her out of habit, so that they would have more worry-free time. But she didn't consider that people grow up slowly and can't grow up all at once.
If she kept everything hidden from them, they would not have experienced it, and they had not faced it. How would they solve problems in the future? Could experience suddenly get into their heads?
Xu's mother and Xu Rui stood aside without saying anything, but their eyes were relieved. Especially Xu's mother.
As a mother, the happiest thing is to see her children being of one mind.
"In this case, let's all sit down in the main courtyard and talk slowly!"
Xu's mother also understood that the eldest brother and Mu Hua must have done something behind her back again!
When they arrived at the main courtyard, Xu Mu Hua finally told the story.
Xu's mother was shocked and angry, "Muhua, is what you said true? The reason why your grandmother got sick was not accidental, but someone did it on purpose?"
"Mother, can I joke about such a thing? It was this Aunt Wan. She broke into grandmother's room in the middle of the night, opened the window while grandmother was sleeping, and lifted the quilt covering grandmother, so that grandmother got cold at night."
"And grandmother thought it was because she was greedy for the coolness at night, so she subconsciously lifted the quilt, and was blown by the night wind, caught a cold, and got sick. Mother, this Aunt Wan needs to be interrogated carefully, but before the interrogation, mother had better find out whether grandmother has done anything to make this Aunt Wan hate her."
"But...even if she holds a grudge, why did she wait until now to do such a thing?"
Xu Muhua frowned.
This is indeed a suspicious point.
If it is true that grandma had done something to make Aunt Wan hold a grudge against her, then as one of the most trusted people in grandma's yard, she would have plenty of opportunities to attack grandma. Why did she wait until now?
"Sister, since you let big brother control this Aunt Wan, why don't you just interrogate her directly? Big brother and father are both in the barracks. There are many ways to interrogate people in the barracks, right?"
Xu Nan asked angrily, frowning.
Damn it, this Aunt Wan is so cruel that she attacked grandma! She knew that grandma was old, but she still did this. She wanted to kill grandma!
Xu Jinyu clenched his fists and said angrily, "Brother, you must not let her off so easily! I don't believe that grandma would do anything to let her down. Grandma trusted her so much, but she hurt grandma like this!"
Xu Rui said coldly, "Don't worry, since she has done such a treacherous thing, she can't be let off easily!"
Otherwise, the servants in the mansion will follow suit, and it will be a mess!
"Anan, if we don't investigate it first and just interrogate her like this, she will admit that she hates grandma, but it's not the case in fact. Aren't we going to be fooled?"
Just like what mother mentioned just now, Nanny Wan had so many opportunities to take action, why did she wait until now?
Now that father and brother are in the mansion, wouldn't it be easier for her to be exposed if she took action at this time?
With her father and elder brother away, she might have a chance to escape if she did something!
Thinking of this, something flashed through Xu Muhua's mind, but she failed to catch it in time. But she always felt that the thing that flashed through her mind just now was related to this matter.
Xu Nan thought about it and felt that it seemed to be the case. What if the fact was like this... Oh, well, it doesn't matter, at most it will just delay time.
Xu's mother immediately said: "I'll go check it out now!" Xu's mother
was about to get up, and the nanny who was serving her came in and whispered something in her ear.
Xu's mother was surprised and blurted out: "The Hu family--"
She only said two words and remembered that several children were still there, so she swallowed the words back.
"Let's talk about this later. I'll go see Aunt Wan first!"
Xu Muhua heard the words "Hu family" with sharp ears, and knew that what happened in the Hu family last night had probably spread.
Besides, she was a little annoyed that she was only concerned with anger last night and forgot to let those little birds help her check.
As she was talking, a burst of bird calls came from outside the window. Xu Muhua's heart moved, and she stood up and walked over.
The remaining few people were a little puzzled.
How could the eldest sister (sister) not forget those little birds at this time? It seems that she really likes these little animals!
Xu Muhua recognized at a glance that the leader was the bird she had put in the cage earlier.
She took the bird over just to pretend that the bird would recognize her. After recognizing the people, and because the old lady wanted to rest, she took the bird cage out and asked Shi Liu to take it to the yard and let it go.
Unexpectedly, it came back so soon.
As soon as he saw her coming, Xiao Niao couldn't wait to say: "No need to check, we found it for you! That old thing took other people's money and deliberately wanted to harm the old lady!"
"Yes, yes, we saw a big box of gold ingots hidden in her room! Oh, and there are gold bars!"
Xu Muhua was surprised and confused by this result.
Although my grandmother is the old lady of the Chengguo Mansion, she has long stopped taking care of things and handed over the housekeeping power to my mother. In the mansion, she is just an old person who enjoys her old age.
Under such circumstances, who would spend so much money to bribe Aunt Wan and let Aunt Wan harm my grandmother? Since it was a vital part, why not choose a more direct and straightforward method, such as poisoning.
She believed that even if poisoning was done, with Nanny Wan's status and identity in her grandmother's courtyard, she could easily find a scapegoat, get herself out of it, and finally get away safely.
But she used such a tactful method.
The more Xu Muhua thought about it, the more it didn't make sense.
But now that this point has been confirmed, Nanny Wan can be interrogated.
She turned around and looked at the others, and said, "I'll go see if I can help my mother."
Xu Rui stared at her back, his eyes flashing with suspicion and uncertainty.
Why did he feel that Mu Hua seemed to walk to the window and stand for a while, and then decided to go find his mother? It felt like he had some clues.
He couldn't help but walk to the window and take a look, but he didn't find anything unusual. Except for a few bird calls, everything was normal.
After thinking about it, he also said: "You wait here, I'll go and take a look!"
After that, he strode out.
Xu Jinyu and Xu Nan looked at each other, then stood up at the same time and said in unison: "Let's go and take a look too!"
Xu Rui quickly caught up with Xu Muhua, and when he caught up, he just heard her say beside her mother: "Mom, I think we should search Aunt Wan's room first, maybe we can find something."
