Chapter 111 Timely Rain
Lin Yuesha wasn't surprised that Ziyuan had managed to find her home. She almost reflexively looked up at the roof beam, wondering if there might be a few men in black hiding in the shadows.
"They're not here; they're waiting in the trees outside."
Ziyuan couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth. The little girl has such a good memory; she still remembers.
Lin Yuesha nodded, and couldn't help but think that the man in black was freezing outside in the cold weather, and if he stayed there for too long, he would really freeze into an icicle.
She's a kind person, so let's end the conversation quickly.
"Sister Ziyuan, is there any news about Huamei?"
Lin Yuesha stood up, poured Ziyuan a cup of lukewarm tea, and said apologetically, "There's no hot water at home, and the tea is also quite crude."
"It's alright, I don't mind."
Ziyuan patted Lin Yuesha's head. He had come here specifically to hear about Huamei.
He didn't need to get involved in such trivial matters as delivering messages, but after a few days apart, he would occasionally think of the little girl when he was bored.
Since the little girl is so interesting, what's wrong with him making a trip for her?
"I promised you, the thrush has been found, but..."
Ziyuan paused for a moment, then continued under Lin Yuesha's expectant gaze, "Huamei is not in good condition. She is delirious and acting like a madwoman."
"Wasn't it said that they were taken away by wealthy people from other places? How could this happen so suddenly?"
It had only been half a month from when Huamei left Zuifenglou to when she was found.
The wealthy businessman bought the person, hoping to enjoy the novelty for a while before getting tired of her.
"The man who claimed to be a wealthy man from out of town was not wealthy at all, but a coachman from a carriage company. He redeemed Huamei from her servitude and then sold her to an even more despicable brothel."
In the dark kiln, Huamei suffered endless torment, and her eyes were almost gouged out, but Ziyuan's people arrived in time to save her.
The person is in the northern border town, not in some other place. If our people arrive a little later, the thrush might not be able to bear the suffering and bite off its tongue to commit suicide.
"how so!"
Lin Yuesha was terrified. From Huamei's act of feeding stray cats and dogs, it was clear that she was a kind person, a fact that both the coachman and Liuxu could attest to.
Such a gentle person is unlikely to make enemies unless they are in someone's way.
Was the person behind that man a magpie?
"You're right, it is a magpie."
Ziyuan found it easy to investigate these trivial matters, and within a few hours, her subordinates returned with the news.
Interestingly, the magpie ran to the Jiang family and blamed her son on Jiang Huai, but it was because she was instructed to do so, rather than because it was her own original idea.
Having been at Zuifeng Tower for so long, Ziyuan had no idea that there was a hidden figure among the flower maids' group.
"Little girl, tell me what you think."
Ziyuan looked at Lin Yuesha and asked.
"Those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly. I found it a bit suspicious when the magpie suddenly appeared while Master Jiang was not at home."
If Pipi were truly Jiang Huai's son, would a courtesan wait so many years to come knocking? She would have already latched onto his powerful back and settled into the role of a concubine.
Becoming Jiang Huai's concubine, or even gaining some money, is better than living in a brothel.
Lin Yuesha didn't say anything before not because she wanted to deceive Ziyuan, but because it was Jiang Baozhu's family matter. Now that Ziyuan has found out the information herself, Lin Yuesha no longer hides it.
"I suspect that someone conspired with Xique. As for the benefits, it should be to drive away Jiang Baozhu and Xu Shi and split the Jiang family's wealth equally."
What else is there in the Jiang family besides money that they could possibly covet?
As for who did it and who was behind it, Lin Yuesha had no idea; the only person she could think of was He Xing.
If the person behind this is indeed He Xing, then he is vindictive and a true ingrate.
"That's all you need to know."
Ziyuan didn't say much. He only promised Lin Yuesha that he would find Huamei's whereabouts. Huamei was in the town's clinic. When a confrontation was needed, he could just bring Huamei there.
"Little girl, remember what you promised me?"
Ziyuan pinched Lin Yuesha's cheek; although it wasn't as smooth as her own, it was still pretty good.
As soon as he arrived nearby, he noticed that there were people around, and it seemed that someone was protecting the courtyard. It took him quite a bit of effort to shake off that person.
Without lingering, Shion left.
Lin Yuesha slept fitfully all night, thinking she was dreaming. But when she saw the teacup on the table, which still had half a cup of cold tea, she realized that Ziyuan had been there.
Early in the morning, Lin Yuesha had just finished breakfast when Xiao Xi came to her door crying.
"Sister Lin, please persuade our young lady! She wants to leave the Jiang family with Madam!"
Xiao Xi wiped away her tears. She and her mother were reluctant to part with Miss and Madam, but her father said that the Jiang family was their home, and the three of them were servants of the Jiang family, so it was impossible for them to leave.
Because of this, her parents argued and fought all night, and her father even hit her mother.
Xiao Xi tried to persuade Jiang Baozhu, but to no avail. Not wanting her parents to quarrel over this, she had no choice but to run to Lin Yuesha.
My young lady has always been on good terms with Sister Lin, so she will definitely listen to her advice.
"Leave? Where to?"
In the morning, Chen was making spiced melon seeds at home. The water for boiling the seeds had already been prepared, so no further processing was needed. Lin Yuesha couldn't help much.
She grabbed Xiaoxi and asked, "If you want me to persuade your young lady, you should at least explain it to me clearly."
"The master decided to adopt Pipi as the young master of the Jiang family. Madam immediately vomited blood and fainted."
Xiao Xi's eyes were red and swollen, and she hated that woman. If it weren't for that woman bringing her son to cause trouble, the Jiang family wouldn't be in such chaos now.
"So you're admitting it? Do you have any evidence?"
When Lin Yuesha learned the truth, she sneered inwardly. Hua Niang and the person behind her were cunning and had a good grasp of the situation.
