Gu Da's patience at the moment was extremely limited, and Gu Xihe didn't dare to overdo it. After acting coquettishly, leaning on the old matriarch, he conjectured that he felt that Jueying was suddenly frightened very strangely. ~
The old lady shook her head first: "Based on this alone, nothing can be determined."
Gu Da was also a little disapproving, and coldly snorted: "A child's opinion"
Gu Xihe didn't argue, just took out a piece of candy from his purse, put it on the table, looked up at Gu Da and said, "Brother likes to feed candy to horses, master knows?"
Gu Da nodded. He did know about this. Sometimes when he was out of the house and the candy he brought with him ran out, Gu Xitian would find a candy shop nearby, buy half a pack of candy, and feed Jueying a piece from time to time. He also prefers this mouthful, and when he gets a reward, he always hisses happily, leans close to Gu Xitian, and dawdles on him affectionately.
Thinking of the past, the circles of his eyes suddenly turned red again, and he sighed with his hands behind his back.
Seeing that he was sad, the old lady also lowered her head, and wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.
The atmosphere was a little sad, Gu Xihe hurriedly said: "Then before the big brother got into an accident, did the master see the big brother feeding Jue Ying with sugar?"
Gu Da came back to his senses and glanced at him, then looked at the candy on the table, and pondered, "Is there something wrong with this candy?"
Gu Xi nodded silently. ~
Gu Da suddenly narrowed his eyes, and his thoughts jumped back to the moment before the accident.
At that time, he was sitting in the car with the curtains lifted, watching Gu Xitian quickly get on the horse's back, and then leaned down, whispering something in the horse's ear, and finally patted the horse's neck affectionately. Hey sugar, he doesn't seem to see...
Just as he was about to shake his head, his brows suddenly tightened.
no he saw
The moment he lowered the car curtain, he remembered seeing a tiny red thing flying past out of the corner of his eye. dropped candy wrapper
He quickly reached out to take the piece of candy from the table, and looked down.
red mulberry paper
Should be this
He immediately sent someone to call the servants and the accountant who were present at the time to ask questions, but most of them didn't pay attention, only one servant said that he was standing on the side of the horse and passing the whip to Gu Xitian at that time, so he clearly saw Gu Xitian Feed the horse sugar.
Gu Da's eyes immediately became ruthless, he dismissed the irrelevant people, and forced Gu Xihe to ask: "Where did you get this candy? How do you know that there is poison in the candy?"
"The candy was thrown out by the maids in the Luoxia Courtyard. I picked it up and tried it on a horse. It was poisonous and could make the horse suddenly go crazy. Afterwards, it loses its strength, but it won't die. ~" Gu Xihe said: "Master If you don’t believe me, just find a horse and try it.”
Gu Xihe had thought through these issues when he told Lin last night. When he got up early to look for Gu Xiran, the two also exchanged other information and mutual speculations after parting. Gu Xiran repeatedly told him that this matter was related It's important, don't let it out, he didn't want to say it, but he came here to pay his respects. Seeing that Mrs. Lin broke the promise and leaked the news, and was still pressuring Shu Huan, he couldn't help it for a while and revealed it.
After all, he is still a child, and his thoughts are not that complicated. What's more, he feels that everyone in the room, including Gu Da, is listening to him carefully, which is really enjoyable. After being scolded, she intentionally didn't mention Gu Xiran and Shu Huan, and took everything they did on her own shoulders.
Gu Da listened to his natural answer, without the slightest artificiality, he believed it immediately, and didn't ask any more questions. While calling for someone to lead the horse, he anxiously ordered someone to bring the maid from Luoxia Courtyard to question him.
The old matriarch was silent for a while, and suddenly said: "I think it's better to put this matter on hold until the child Xitian's funeral is settled."
"Mother, don't worry about it." Gu Da's eyes were blushing, and his mood was extremely angry and frenzied. He didn't have the mood to deliberate slowly and carefully, and only hated: "If there is really something inside this matter, I will find out the root of the black heart. Come and smash the corpse into ten thousand pieces"
The old lady looked at him for a moment, sighed and shook her head.
Although she didn't know the details of this matter, she had already thought of it when Lin Shi mentioned it. If there is any hidden secret in it, the involvement must be huge, and it is not something ordinary maids and servants can afford. Murdering the master's family is a crime of beheading and beheading. Even if the eldest grandson has an enemy and wants to bribe a servant to poison him, no one would dare to take money that would cost his head, so there are only a handful of people who poison him.
Family ugliness should not be publicized, and besides, the eldest grandson has passed away, even if the murderer is found out, he will not be able to pay back his life
The old matriarch still decided to suppress the matter, stood up on crutches and said: "I said, there is no need to investigate now"
"Mother" Gu Da was extremely puzzled, but persistently refused to retreat.
The old lady was a little angry: "Why, don't you even listen to my words?"
"Other things, the son will let his mother decide, but this matter must not be allowed." Gu Da insisted: "I can't just watch Xitian get wronged by Jiuquan."
The old matriarch was so angry that her body trembled slightly, and she was speechless for a long time. Seeing this, Gu Xihe was in a hurry, and hurriedly helped her to sit down, knocking on her back to let her breathe, while Shu Huan handed her a cup of tea, and smiled slightly. When I looked up, I saw an almost invisible smile on the corner of Lin's lips, and I couldn't help but think of a poem: They are born from the same root, so why bother each other too quickly
During this time of chaos, the maids of Liuxia Courtyard were brought in. Of course, no matter how Gu Da asked about the things they had never done, they couldn't find out why. , still unable to ask, only when Yingluo saw that she was asking about Tang, she glanced at Shu Huan and stopped talking.
With such a big scene, Yingluo recalled Shu Huan's strange words and deeds yesterday, and vaguely guessed what it was about, but no matter how suspicious she was, she still couldn't suspect Shu Huan. After all, she and Gu Xiran left the house for two months, until Gu Xitian After returning home after the accident, another name suddenly jumped into her mind.
"Three Girls" Yingluo blurted out.
"What?" Gu Da was taken aback for a moment, and then forced to ask, "What's wrong with the third girl?"
Yingluo was annoyed by her slip of the tongue, but seeing Gu Da's questioning, she dared not refuse to answer, so she could only tell the truth: "On the day my uncle had an accident, only the third girl had been to Luoxia Courtyard, and she rarely came here..."
Before she finished speaking, Gu Da's face turned blue, and he stomped his feet and shouted for someone to pass on to Gu Xuan.
Seeing that the old lady found her grandson and verified her previous ominous conjecture, the old lady also held her breath in her chest and couldn't breathe. She wanted to stop him, but she couldn't make a sound, so she could only shake her hands and point at Gu Da.
Seeing this scene from the side, Mrs. Lin struggled a lot in her heart. She didn't know whether she should get involved at this time, but the opportunity must never be missed, and she stood up cruelly, stepped forward to hold Gu Da, and pretended to persuade him : "My lord, call people back quickly. Don't make any noise. The third girl usually comes here to say hello. She doesn't dare to walk or talk too much. With her soft temper, how can she do such a thing?"
She didn't say anything, but as soon as she said it, Gu Da suddenly remembered something, and felt a suffocation in his chest, and spurted a mouthful of blood on the spot. . ..
