Liu was shocked and frightened, and her whole body collapsed to one side. When she heard He Jian's question, her eyes couldn't help but redden again. She said intermittently, "I don't know either. The maids that the eldest lady married to the Wen family were either married off at age or were taken in as concubines. Therefore, two of them were promoted to the second rank, and the rest were filled from the maids of the Wen family. This Chunyan was selected from the Wen family, but she has always been diligent and careful. No one expected that she would suddenly go crazy."
When Chunyan was in the Wen family, she was taciturn and seemed very reliable. Even though Su Xingyi's emotions became unstable later on and many servants complained, and some even wanted to find a way out and work elsewhere, Chunyan always worked diligently, so much so that both Su Xingyi herself and Liu trusted her very much.
That's why I brought Chunyan with me when I returned to the Su family this time.
Who would have known that this seemingly honest girl actually had such thoughts.
Mrs. Liu was still frightened: "We just settled down not long ago, and the doctor hasn't come yet. I was planning to put everything in order and then go to get the things. Who knew that after drinking the tea brought by Chunyan, I felt a little dizzy. I didn't drink much, but I just felt dizzy. I saw Chunyan untied the belt and was about to wrap it around the young lady's neck, and I was scared..."
He Jian and Su Yao both looked at Su Xingyi, and sure enough, they saw that Su Xingyi had a scarlet belt wrapped around her neck, and there was also an obvious red mark on her neck.
This was really weird. Even though He Jian had killed people on the battlefield before, he still felt very nervous because of this unprecedented thing.
Looking at the servants on the ground, He regained his composure and looked at Su Yao: "Miss..."
The door was pushed open with a creaky sound, and Master Su San's shout interrupted He Jian's question. He had no choice but to look towards Master Su San, and seeing that Old Lady Su had also come, he hurriedly saluted to her.
Old Mrs. Su waved her hand and told them to stop. She couldn't help but gasp when she saw the scene in the room. Then, she was shocked to hear that Su Xingyi was almost strangled to death by Chunyan. She let Nanny Huang support her to Su Xingyi's bedside. She couldn't help but burst into tears after just one look at Su Xingyi.
As people get older, their hearts always become softer. Plus, Old Lady Su raised Su Xingyi single-handedly and had deep feelings for her. Seeing a horrible wound across Su Xingyi's face, her face haggard and dark circles under her eyes, how could she not know that she had suffered a lot
She was already dying at the Wen family's house, and this time she almost lost her life. Old Madam Su touched Su Xingyi's head, tucked her hair behind her ears, then turned around and calmly instructed Madam Huang: "Go and ask the doctor to come..."
After giving this instruction, only Master Su San, Su Rong and his sister, and He Jian were left in the room. Old Madam Su coldly slapped the table next to her.
The cup shook with her movement, instantly shocking Master Su San back to his senses.
He looked at Old Lady Su in shock, and couldn't help looking at Su Yao. He was already extremely confused. He calmed down and asked Su Yao, "What's going on? How did you guess that something was going to happen to your sister?"
This is simply too strange.
Why did this happen? Su Xingyi is back, so why would someone want to kill her
Su Yao didn't answer, so Su Rong said coldly: "The facts are all in front of us, what else is there to not understand? Uncle Guo's death and the appearance of the black bear have already made the emperor and everyone in the court believe that it was because of the enclosure incident that year. Now what if the eldest sister who has an inseparable relationship with the Wen family who guards the leopard house is also dead, and left a blood letter of accusation?!"
Master Su San was horrified.
He couldn't even control his emotions this time, he stood up suddenly, almost jumping up and down in anger: "Who the hell is so mean to harm our entire Su family?!"
Su Yao didn't have time to answer his nonsense. He just looked at Old Madam Su and said solemnly, "Grandma, quickly, guard the whole house and never allow anyone to come in or out. Also, check on Su Xingxuan, quickly!"
Master Su San no longer blindly scolded Su Yao because he had already discovered that his daughter was unusual.
Everything she said was confirmed, and everything she thought was obviously consistent with her speculation.
Hearing Su Yao say this, he was stunned: "You...what do you mean?"
Could this matter be related to my family
Old Madam Su looked at Master Su San and said, "What else do you want?! Go and take good care of your daughter-in-law. If she causes any trouble again, don't blame me for not recognizing you, a bunch of people who are always causing trouble but not being able to do anything good!"
As she was talking, she heard a knock on the door, so she stopped talking and waited for Nanny Huang to come in. She then ordered her in a deep voice, "Go and call everyone inside and outside the mansion to the meeting room. Except for the gatekeepers of each room and courtyard, no one else can be left behind. I have something to say!"
The old lady hasn't been in charge of household affairs for many years. Ever since the prince got into trouble, she has been disheartened and withdrawn from the world. At this moment, she suddenly said that she wanted to summon the steward and the servants. Even Madam Huang couldn't help but be stunned, and then she became nervous involuntarily.
But she had served the old lady for many years and knew her temper well. After hearing the old lady's order, she was slightly stunned and then went to call the servants without hesitation.
Old Madam Su stood up and looked at Su Yao and Su Rong: "Go and watch over Su Xingxuan. No matter what, there can't be any mistakes today!"
Su Yao responded, and when he went out and saw Liu had already settled the unconscious maids, he asked, "Where are the things you brought back?"
Liu didn't expect her to ask this. After thinking for a while, she pointed to the east wing and said, "Because the Jinyiwei suddenly came to the Wen family, the girl's dowry has not been sorted out yet. She only brought some valuables, which are still in the east wing."
Su Yao hummed, then glanced at Mother Shen and Yan Cao: "Go and take a look."
Master Su San was so anxious that his mouth was covered with blisters. He thought about it over and over again but couldn't find the right way, so he had to call Su Yao. When he saw Su Yao turned around and met Su Yao's eyes, he was actually a little scared for a moment. After a moment, he came to his senses: "Yaoyao, what do you mean? You still want to check Xingyi's things... You..."
"Father, my elder sister came back after giving birth to a daughter. We sent a letter back. Logically, the mistress of the house should know about it. If she knew, why didn't any of the Su family's servants come to my place?" Su Yao sighed and reminded him, "Also, Su Xingxuan has been detained for so long, how could she send the message out?"
Master Su San's face suddenly turned pale.
