"Taijun, it has been found out that Steward Ji died by hanging from a beam, not homicide."
The doctor in the mansion has also come to check. According to the traces at the scene, Steward Ji showed no signs of struggling. Judging from the traces on her neck, she was indeed hanged to death.
"Butler Ji is really... hey, he is obsessed with money. Fortunately, people are fine, Taijun, I think this matter, let's forget it."
Ji Linlang downplayed Ye Lingyue's matter in one sentence.
"Lin Lang is right. Everyone has been arguing all night because of this matter. Madam, your birthday is approaching, and you are involved in many things. For such trivial matters, just leave it to your subordinates to take care of them. It is better to rest as soon as possible. "
Chu Qinshi also stepped forward to chime in.
Butler Ji's death, anyone with a discerning eye could tell there was something wrong with it.
How could someone like Chu Qin not see it.
As for Mrs. Chu, she has lived tens of thousands of years, and she is an old fox among old foxes.
She also knew that there must be tricks in it, but after a thorough investigation, there would be a lot of entanglements, and it was just for Ye Lingyue, it was not worth it at all.
Old Madam Chu cast a glance at Ye Lingyue.
"Ling Yue, you were also frightened by this incident. Fortunately, the ancestors of the Ye family blessed you and you escaped this catastrophe. In the future, you must not do stupid things. The yard you live in is too remote. Your personal maid is also missing. The old man will change a courtyard for you tomorrow morning, and send a few more capable maidservants to serve you, so you can live in the Chu mansion with peace of mind. One day in the government."
When the old lady Chu spoke, she was very kind.
But between the lines, the hearts of the few people on the side couldn't help but tighten.
The old matriarch's words were also for them to hear.
Today's matter, she knew what was going on, no matter how much Ye Lingyue was an eyesore, she was still the one the old matriarch wanted to take care of.
The old lady doesn't allow anyone to make a move.
Ji Linlang gritted her teeth, maintaining a stiff smile on her face.
After today, the old matriarch will definitely send someone to protect Ye Lingyue. In this way, it will be very difficult for him to do it again.
Chu Qin's teeth were itching with anger, the old matriarch was too confused.
Ye Lingyue has explained that the Ye family and the Xinghe family have enmity.
What kind of existence is the Xinghe family now? Will the old matriarch still fight against the Xinghe ancestor
But neither of the two dared to disobey the words of the old lady.
After hearing this, Ye Lingyue raised her eyes to look at the old lady again.
The old matriarch's face was full of comfort, but those old but not cloudy eyes were calm.
This old man, between the lines, really has some meaning.
As long as the old lady reigns for a day, she will not be allowed to leave the Chu residence.
These words sounded like they were protecting her, but after another taste, they were not a kind of restraint.
Mrs. Chu also knew that the Xinghe Patriarch was not easy to offend, and the Chu family would never get involved in this muddy water. If Ye Lingyue was not allowed to leave, it would be impossible for Ye Lingyue to take revenge.
Do you want her to stay in the Chu Mansion for the rest of her life like a cold palace maid
Heh~ It's a beautiful idea.
It's a pity that the submissive "Ye Lingyue" has long since died.
Today's Ye Lingyue is full of reverse scales, and it is not so easy to smooth her out.
Ji Linlang, Chu Mu, these people, Ye Lingyue will not let them go.
Ye Lingyue sneered a few times in her heart.
"Thank you, old matriarch. Ling Yue is very grateful for the old matriarch's arrangement. It's just that Ling Yue has another unfeeling request."
Ye Lingyue's eyes were red and swollen, looking pitifully at the old lady.
When they heard about Ye Lingyue's unfeeling love, Ji Linlang and Chu Qinshi hardly cried out in surprise.
They know exactly what this woman is up to.
"The old lady must not!"
Ji Linlang blurted out.
"Old Madam, tonight, Ling Yue almost died once, and almost saw Madam Ye."
Ye Lingyue made a gesture and touched her neck, the strangle mark was shocking.
When Mrs. Ye was mentioned, Mrs. Chu's eyes flashed a trace of nostalgia.
The old friendship between the two is vividly remembered.
If Ye Lingyue didn't have the red spots on half of her face, she would be somewhat similar to Senior Sister Ye back then, but Senior Sister Ye's temper is much stronger than Ye Lingyue's.
"Forget it, tell me, what request do you have?"
Seeing the old man's face, Mrs. Chu's heart softened.
"I want to see Chu Mu."
Ye Lingyue said.
"Ye Lingyue, you still have to be shameless. You know that Brother Mu doesn't want to see you, but you still want to pester him."
Ji Linlang was very angry.
You know, this woman is delusional and wants to get her hands on Brother Mu.
"Miss Biao, what are you talking about? I just want to see my fiancé, why am I so shameless. After a hundred years, I don't even know whether Chu Mu is round or flat, fat or bald."
Ye Lingyue blinked her teary eyes, looking aggrieved.
"Ye Lingyue, what are you talking about? Mu'er is personable, he is a stunningly beautiful man, how dare you slander him!"
Chu Qinshi was also very annoyed that this toad dared to slander her precious son like this.
"The turtle looks at bastards. I have never seen Chu Mu in your eyes, so how would I know?"
Ye Lingyue said aggrievedly.
What kind of virtue is Chu Mu, she is not interested in knowing.
handsome man
Can it be more beautiful than Master Zi, and more handsome than Emperor Xin
These two, one old and one young, really think that she cares about Chu Mu
Why did she want to see Chu Mu
It was just to fulfill "Ye Lingyue"'s long-cherished wish, and at the same time let her and Chu Mu make a break.
The old matriarch has already said that Ye Lingyue wants to get out of the Chu mansion in a legitimate way, but it may not be easy.
Chu Mu is probably the only one who can "help" her.
The old lady Chu frowned.
"That's enough. It's not too much just to see Mu'er. In a few days, it will be the old man's birthday. Ling Yue, you should tidy up and come to the birthday banquet together."
The old matriarch also knew that if Chu Mu didn't see Ye Lingyue for a hundred years, that would indeed be too much.
However, it was already well known that Chu Mu hated Ye Lingyue.
If the old lady Chu really forced Chu Mu, Chu Mu might be so angry that she wouldn't even participate in the birthday banquet.
After much deliberation, Mrs. Chu came up with a compromise, which was to let Ye Lingyue participate in her birthday.
The old matriarch's birthday was very popular, but no one had informed "Ye Lingyue" to participate. Now that the old matriarch opened his mouth, Ye Lingyue naturally went to participate.
"Old Madam, she looks like a ghost, going to the birthday banquet, isn't it embarrassing."
Ji Linlang was furious.
Once Ye Lingyue attends, people will definitely know that she is Chu Mu's fiancée.
When she fell down, her cousin would be overwhelmed by Ye Lingyue.
"The old man's decision has been made, you don't need to say any more. Someone died in this yard, and I will find an alchemist to rescue him tomorrow."
After the old lady Chu made some arrangements, it was already dawn.
The old lady comforted Ye Lingyue a few more words, and then led her away.
