Chapter 415 The Truth Comes to Light (Part 3)



Fusu said, "Yes, isn't it because the weather is hot? There are a lot of mosquitoes, so everyone in the mansion was given a mosquito repellent sachet."

Su Xiaoxiao sniffed it again and said, "This is not a mosquito repellent sachet."

Fusu complained: "That's what you said when you gave it to me."

Everyone couldn't help but look at Wei Ting.

If this sachet was given to Fusu by Lady Wei, then there would be a big problem.

Wei Ting said calmly: "I'll go back to the Wei family."

"I'll go with you." Su Xiaoxiao said, then turned to Yuchi Xiu and said, "Can you go to the First Hall to pick up my master?"

There was a devastating rainstorm in the capital city. The ground was wet and the horses' hooves splashed water as they stepped through the potholes.

The two stopped in front of the Wei family’s gate.

Looking at the towering and deep mansion, Wei Ting was distracted for a moment.

But the next moment, he returned to normal and walked into the mansion with a calm face.

The gatekeeper was very surprised to see him coming back in the middle of the night: "Master...Master? Why are you back so late? Is Miss Su here too?"

Wei Ting handed him the reins of the two horses.

The servant took it respectfully.

There was still some scattered rain and fog in the sky. The servant wanted to get two umbrellas for the two men, but they had already walked away.

The servant scratched his head: "Why do I feel that the young master is acting strange tonight?"

When the two passed by Li's yard, a small figure rushed out without warning and bumped into Wei Ting.

Wei Ting supported her and whispered, "Xiyue?"

Wei Xiyue was holding two small jars in her arms, one filled with dried meat and the other with pine nuts.

She raised her head and looked at Wei Ting blankly.

"You little bitch! Come back here! You——"

Li chased them out and saw Wei Ting and Su Xiaoxiao, "It's Xiaoqi and his wife."

She looked a little embarrassed, walked up to Wei Xiyue and pulled her over, scolding her in a low voice: "What did mother tell you? You are not allowed to run outside at night!"

Wei Ting asked: "Second sister-in-law, where does Xiyue want to go?"

Li said, "She wants to go find Xiaohu and the others."

The three little ones have been living in the Zhenbei Marquis Mansion these days. They attended classes in the past two days and are on holiday today. Wei Xiyue didn't see them, so she insisted on going to look for them.

But what surprised Li was that Wei Xiyue no longer shouted and screamed like before.

She just learned to run outside...

Li didn't know whether to be happy or sad.

Su Xiaoxiao's eyes fell on the small sachet on Wei Xiyue's waist. She squatted down and said softly, "Xiyue, I will take you to see Xiaohu and Dahu tomorrow. Can you go back to sleep first?"

Wei Xiyue thought about it and nodded.

Su Xiaoxiao pointed at her sachet again: "This is so beautiful, can you show it to me?"

Wei Xiyue grabbed it and handed it to Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao smelled it and gave it back to Wei Xiyue: "It smells good, who gave it to you?"

Wei Xiyue looked up at Li.

Li smiled and said, "They were sent over a few days ago. I still have a few in my room. If you like them, I'll give them to you."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled: "Okay, thank you, second sister-in-law."

Li asked a maid to bring Wei Xiyue in, and took out two sachets, one for Su Xiaoxiao and one for Wei Ting.

Su Xiaoxiao asked calmly, "These spices are very special. Does my second sister-in-law know where they were bought?"

Li looked at the sachet in her hand and said, "This one you're talking about is not bought from outside, but made by mother. In addition to growing flowers, plants and fruits, mother also likes to make some spices."

"Oh." Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyes and glanced at Wei Ting.

Just at this moment, Wei Xiyue was lying on the windowsill calling for her mother.

Wei Ting said, "Second sister-in-law, you go and do your work first, we will go see grandma."

"Hey, I'll go then!"

Li turned around and went back to the yard.

Wei Ting looked at Su Xiaoxiao: "You are not surprised at all, are you hiding something from me?"

Is it finally impossible to hide it? Su Xiaoxiao scratched her head and told the story of "running into" Madam Wei at the gambling house with great hatred.

"So you have suspected my mother for a long time?" Wei Ting's expression remained calm, but the more so, the more terrifying undercurrents were lurking.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Su Xiaoxiao confessed: "I tested her and dispelled my suspicion of her, so I didn't tell you."

Wei Ting whispered, "She didn't give me the flowers that day. You forced her to give them to me, right?"

Su Xiaoxiao was speechless.

When you pull out a radish, you will also bring out the dirt. The traitor hasn't been exposed yet, but she has revealed all the secrets first.

It’s bad for men to be too smart.

Wei Ting said self-deprecatingly: "It turns out that she has never had me as her son or the Wei family in her heart."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting steadily: "No, she probably didn't want to betray you."

Wei Ting clenched his fists: "What about Fusu's sachet?"

Doubting his mother must have been a very painful thing, as if the faith he had held for twenty-one years had collapsed in an instant, but he didn't even have the qualifications to collapse.

Because he is Wei Ting.

He is the only surviving male in the Wei family.

Su Xiaoxiao felt a little sorry for this man.

…Just a little bit, no more.

Su Xiaoxiao pulled his sleeve and opened the two sachets Li gave her: "Look."

The courtyard of Old Lady Wei was brightly lit.

After listening to the two children's explanation, Old Lady Wei was stunned for a long time.

"Old lady?" Su Xiaoxiao placed her pulse on her body with three fingers, ready to rescue her at any time.

"You can't die!" said Old Lady Wei sadly.

She had experienced all kinds of storms, what else could she not bear? Wasn't it just two traitors?

One Guo Huan... One...

She stood up coldly, then sat down again as her eyes went dark.

"Grandma!" Wei Ting supported her.

About a quarter of an hour later, all the women of the Wei family gathered around Old Lady Wei.

Old Lady Wei has already digested all the bad news.

Since she was able to survive the despair of almost the entire Wei family being killed in the war, she can continue to hold on now.

But all the women in the Wei family noticed something was wrong. Whether it was Xiaoqi or the old lady, they all looked murderous.

Old Lady Wei said sternly, "Since you are here, I will not beat around the bush. If you are the traitor of the White Lotus Sect, please come forward. If you want me to find you out—"

After these words were spoken, except for Madam Wei, the other female members of the family all looked bewildered.

Lan asked, "Grandma, what traitor?"

Old Lady Wei said coldly: "A traitor from the White Lotus Sect!"

Lan was horrified.

The others almost gasped.

A traitor from the White Lotus Cult has infiltrated the Wei family and is among them?

Su Xiaoxiao paid close attention to everyone's expressions, but did not find any flaws.

Old Lady Wei said, "This matter was investigated by you two, so you go ahead and tell us about it, Daya!"

Old Madam Wei did not treat Su Xiaoxiao as an outsider.

Su Xiaoxiao paused and said, "Okay, I'll tell you."

She just paid close attention to everyone's expressions, but did not find any flaws. It could only be that the person hid it very well.

Unfortunately, she already knew who she was.

Su Xiaoxiao stood up and said, "To make a long story short, Guo Huan is a spy of the White Lotus Sect. In the Wei family, or to be more precise, in this room, there are his accomplices."

Once these words were spoken, it was like a stone that caused a thousand ripples.

Except for Madam Wei, a strange look flashed across almost everyone's face.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "I will explain the details of what happened later. A few days ago, the Wei court arrested Guo Huan. The traitor in the mansion sent the sachet to Fusu through the old lady, and followed the scent all the way to the place of imprisonment and rescued Guo Huan."

Jiang asked, "Isn't this the scent bag given by the mansion? I have one too. Do you have one too, sister-in-law?"

Chen nodded: "Yes, I do."

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the sachet in her hand and said, "The sachet is not the point. The main thing is the fragrance inside. This kind of fragrance is not obvious to humans, but birds and animals are more sensitive to it."

Jiang looked at Madam Wei weakly and whispered, "Didn't mother make the spices?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Madam Wei's face.

Madam Wei lowered her eyes and said nothing.

Su Xiaoxiao said, "I checked Xiyue's sachet and found that the spices inside were different from those in Fusu's sachet. Fusu's sachet was mixed with a small amount of incense that can cause heart paralysis, but the other sachets did not have that."

Everyone looked at Li again.

Li's eyebrows jumped: "Why are you looking at me! Do you think I did it?!"

Lan asked, "Otherwise...why is it that only Xiyue's doesn't have the poisonous fragrance?"

Li said coldly: "Mr. Lan! I have offended you!"

Su Xiaoxiao continued, "The sachets in my grandmother's yard were not mixed with incense, nor were the two my second sister-in-law gave me."

Li raised her eyebrows and said, "Look, look! It's not me! Ah, maybe it's you! You are close to the Guo family! You said a few days ago that you wanted Princess Lingxi to marry you as your seventh brother's wife! You might be Guo Huan's accomplice!"

Lan slapped the table and said, "How dare you talk like that, sister-in-law!"

"You even slammed the table at me. You are really rebellious!" Li said angrily, "I said whatever you said! The villain is the first to complain, and I am talking about you!"

Lan said angrily: "I didn't betray the Wei family! Why doesn't anyone suspect the fifth brother's wife?"

Jiang's eyes widened: "What do you want to do with me again?"

Lan snorted, "You are the last one to marry into the Wei family! Less than two years after you got married, something happened to the Wei family! How could it be such a coincidence!"

Jiang was furious: "You——"

"Stop arguing!" Old Lady Wei shouted, and several people rolled their eyes and turned away.

"Seventh brother's wife, take a look at mine." Jiang took off her own sachet, "and Third sister-in-law's."

"I don't wear it." Chen said.

Jiang frowned and said, "Don't you wear it every day, sister-in-law? Why don't you wear it now?"

Chen scratched his head: "I forgot."

Lan and Li looked at Chen suspiciously: "Could it be you..."

"Don't be suspicious of each other. I already know who the traitor is. Except for Fusu's sachet, the rest are clean."

"Why does only Fusu have it?" Li asked.

Su Xiaoxiao followed her words and said, "Yes, why is it only Fusu who has it? How can she guarantee that the sachet will be delivered to Fusu?"

"Yes, yes! Tell me quickly!" Lan urged.

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly: "It's actually very simple. She only needs to tell Old Lady Wei that Fusu is always bitten, so I specially added some mosquito repellent grass spices. Will this sachet easily fall into Fusu's hands?"

Li and others looked at Madam Wei again.

The spices were made by Madam Wei, and the sachets were bought outside and sent to Madam Wei's yard, where Madam Wei and Ping'er packed them together.

After all is said and done, my mother is the most suspicious.

Su Xiaoxiao continued, "It's also his fault that he wasn't ruthless enough. If he had put a little incense in everyone's sachets, he wouldn't have had to do this and could have perfectly pinned the blame on Madam Wei. After all, the sachets were made by Madam Wei."

"What? Mother is not--" Li stood up and said halfway when she realized that she was being unfilial. She coughed lightly and sat down again.

She glanced at her sisters-in-law and said, "What are you laughing at? Didn't you just suspect——"

Su Xiaoxiao looked out the window at the night scene: "Why didn't she mix all the sachets with aphrodisiac incense so that she could put the blame on Madam Wei and get away with it? Is it because the aphrodisiac incense is not enough? No."

She turned and looked at all the women present.

"This kind of spice is nothing to adults, but Xiyue is a child and weak. If she wears it for a certain period of time, she may be poisoned. In order not to poison Xiyue, she can only accurately target Fusu."

Everyone looked at Li again.

Li gritted her teeth and said, "I told you it wasn't me!"

Jiang said: "She can make one for Xiyue. It's not surprising that a child's is different from that of an adult."

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "It's not strange to do it for Xiyue alone, but is it strange to do it for my second sister-in-law alone?"

Everyone suddenly realized.

Li is taking care of Wei Xiyue. If she wears a poison sachet, Wei Xiyue will also be poisoned.

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, "There is another very important reason. She doesn't want to put the blame on Madam Wei. Am I right, sister-in-law?"
