Yang said solemnly, "What I'm afraid of is that although Grandma doesn't harm anyone, others want to frame her with Brother's life. Think about the last time, if Brother Chuan was really unfortunate, could Grandma clear her suspicion in the end?"
"Why are you talking about this again?" Aunt Jiang was somewhat helpless, rubbing her brows and said, "Sister, just say what you want to say. Rong'er is the only one here, is there any need to beat around the bush?"
When Yang heard her say this, she said directly, "When Grandma Yun was talking to you just now, she glanced at Brother Chuan. I saw it clearly from the side. There was a deep hatred in her eyes, although it passed quickly. I originally said that Brother Chuan's behavior last time was strange. Now think about it, if it was really Grandma Yun...it makes me feel cold all over."
"No... Impossible?" Although Aunt Jiang wanted to climb the wall for the sake of her and her son's future, she always trusted Xu Ranyun as her master. But when she heard what Yang said, she somehow immediately remembered what Duan Maochuan had just said. The child said that Second Mother was getting more and more scary. Could it be that he saw Xu Ranyun staring at him with hatred? This... This is unlikely, right?
"How is it impossible? Madam Yun is a person who will do anything to achieve her goals." Yang snorted coldly. She had had enough of Xu Ranyun's cold words these days, but the other party's casual glance just now really frightened her. But she heard Aunt Jiang muttering, "Brother Chuan ate ice cream in the eldest madam's room. It wasn't Madam Yun who forced him to do this. What does it have to do with her?"
"Although it wasn't Grandma Yun who forced him to eat ice cream, don't forget that Master also said, according to the imperial physician, if it was just ice cream, he wouldn't have gotten so sick that he almost lost his life. I asked Honglian, and before, Brother Chuan and the other young masters also ate a few bites of ice cream in Grandma's room. And don't you remember? That day, Brother was unconscious, and later it was Grandma who ignored the suspicion and asked him to vomit up everything he ate, which saved his life. If it was just ice cream, he would have defecated long ago. What's the point of Grandma asking Brother to vomit out the contents of his stomach?"
"What do you mean? Someone gave Chuan Ge'er something else to eat? And it was after Chuan Ge'er had his meal? Because the food before the meal certainly couldn't be in his stomach." Aunt Jiang didn't want to bring up the past, but it was related to her son's safety. She couldn't help but ask another question. Besides, she felt that now that her mind had calmed down, it was the right time to sort out the matter. If it really wasn't the eldest grandmother who killed Chuan Ge'er, it meant that there was another poisonous snake in the mansion who wanted to harm Duan Maochuan. How could she feel at ease if she didn't find this person?
"That's what I meant." Yang simply nodded and admitted. Then she said, "I remember that day, Grandma Yun explained to Master that she learned about Chuan'er eating ice cream from Master Ming. If that's true, how can we be sure that she won't take the opportunity to attack Chuan'er? Once Chuan'er dies, the blame will naturally fall on Grandma."
"But Madam Yun didn't come until later. At that time, there were a lot of people surrounding Chuan Ge'er. How could she have a chance to make a move?" Aunt Jiang's heart was pounding. She still didn't dare, and didn't want to believe that Xu Ranyun would do such a thing.
At this moment, Rong'er whispered, "Did Auntie forget the bowl of ginger sugar water?"
"Ginger sugar water?" Aunt Jiang was stunned for a moment. She thought carefully in her mind and finally remembered that it seemed to be the case. She looked at Rong'er and asked in confusion: "What are you saying? There is something wrong with that bowl of ginger sugar water? What makes you say that?"
Rong Er quickly said, "I don't know if there is anything wrong with that bowl of ginger sugar water. It's just that Auntie just said that Madam Yun didn't have a chance to make a move, so I thought of that bowl of sugar water."
Yang said, "Rong'er, you must have discovered something. It was the busiest time. Even I forgot about the bowl of ginger syrup. How could you remember it so clearly?"
Rong'er hurriedly said, "I really don't know if there is a problem. Auntie, think about it. If I knew that the bowl of ginger sugar water was not good, how could I dare to let my brother drink it? It's just..." At this point, she hesitated for a moment, then raised her head and mustered up the courage to say, "It's just that when Sister Fengxian came to deliver the sugar water that day, I happened to bring Doctor Liao over. As soon as I entered the door, I felt that Sister Fengxian's eyes were a little wrong, but it was only a flash, and I couldn't explain it clearly, so I never dared to mention it. There is no evidence, and it is suspected of slander. It was not until today when Auntie and Sister Yang talked about this that I suddenly remembered this matter again."
"You... said Fengxian's eyes were not right at that time. What was wrong with her?"
Yang didn't have time to investigate Rong'er's thoughts at the time, and hurriedly asked, and heard Rong'er whisper: "When I came in, I saw Sister Fengxian looking at the young master, and she was... very sympathetic and sad, as if... as if our young master was already dead."
When she said this, she knelt down and said, "Grandma, this was just a feeling I had at the time. I can't be sure of it. After all, people have thousands of thoughts, and I can't read their minds. Maybe Sister Fengxian just felt bad for the young master, so there were several times afterwards when I wanted to say something but didn't dare to..."
Before she could finish, she heard Aunt Jiang say woodenly, "I know. You can get up. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. If...if it is true that Madam Yun wants to use my Chuan'er to harm Grandma, I...I..."
"What are you going to do?" Yang was shocked. "Sister, don't do anything stupid. Although Grandma Yun is nothing compared to the eldest grandma, she is still a far cry from you. You hate her, so just be more careful in the future, but don't try to hit a stone with an egg. With your status, Grandma Yun can crush you like an ant. Are you going to abandon Brother Chuan? Not to mention that your family is all in the Earl's Mansion. Although your aunt and uncle are gone, your brothers and sisters are still there. You can't ignore them."
Aunt Jiang laughed coldly and said, "With my parents gone, I have nothing to worry about in that mansion, and I don't have any brothers or sisters." At this point, she paused and said, "But don't worry, sister, you are right, I was just angry for a moment, and what's more, I haven't figured out the matter yet. Okay, let's not talk about this topic anymore, be careful that the walls have ears."
Seeing that she could put her worries aside decisively, Yang was relieved. However, she didn't know that Aunt Jiang had already made up her mind to investigate the matter thoroughly. Although Rong'er said she was not sure, she believed what she said. Not for anything else, but because this girl has always been careful and smart, she could detect that Fengxian's eyes were not right, and it must not be a rumor.
Slowly standing up and walking to the window, looking at the colorful flowers and green willows outside, Aunt Jiang's heart was filled with coldness and anger, and she secretly thought: I didn't dare to investigate this matter before, because the eldest grandmother is too powerful now. Even if I try my best, I can't touch her at all, and she has no handle or weakness that can fall into my hands. But Grandma Yun, you are different. I have served you since I was a slave, and it has been ten years now. Is there anything about you that I don't know? If I find out, it is really you who want to use Chuan Ge'er to harm the eldest grandmother, Grandma Yun, then don't blame me for turning against you. You shouldn't be so cruel. You know very well that Chuan Ge'er is my lifeblood and the flesh and blood...
