Now that her face has not healed, rushing to see Xie Shenyan will only make him dislike her even more. Although Aunt Fu is a bit stupid, she has her own way of touching a man's heart.

Seeing that most of the traces on Mrs. Qiao's face were gone, Xie Ruzhuo became suspicious and ordered Qianbi and Hongrui to keep an eye on Mrs. Fu's two maids, and then hurriedly followed them.

Mrs. Qiao had already received the letter and went to Zizhuyuan. As soon as she entered the yard, she heard someone blowing behind her like a gust of wind, and then Aunt Fu's noisy voice rang out, "Old madam, you have to make the decision for me! "

Mrs. Qiao frowned and was about to scold Aunt Fu when she saw Xie Ruzhuo following behind. She was so busy that she pulled Xie Ruzhuo over and said worriedly, "My son, are you okay?"

Xie Ruzhuo smiled reassuringly and said, "Don't worry, mother, I'm fine." After saying that, she opened the cotton curtain for Mr. Qiao again and said, "Let's go in and talk."

As soon as she entered the door, she saw Aunt Fu kneeling on the ground in the center, crying miserably. Aunt Fu cried and said, "Old lady, I am already a useless person. I just want to live a safe life. However, there are still people who think that my life is not miserable enough and want to put that shit basin on my head." ah!"

Although Ji knew that her face was ruined, she didn't know that she had become like this. She was startled at this moment, and seeing Aunt Fu crying miserably, she also felt a little hesitant in her heart. After all, although Aunt Fu has not been very popular in recent years, she has always behaved well, and the poisoning matter is not something she can do.

Xie Ruzhuo walked over unhurriedly, greeted Mr. Ji first, and then said, "Go back to grandma, nothing was found in my aunt's room."

Hearing this, Mrs. Ji nodded and said, "Since we didn't find anything, forget it. But, Mrs. Fu, what did you do in the kitchen last night?"

Aunt Fu had already said something. When she heard Ji's question, she suddenly felt embarrassed and said, "Old lady, you have also seen that my face has become like this. I don't dare to go out during the day. I can only take advantage of them at night." Now that I'm gone, I'll go get something to eat quietly. I'll save... I'll save them from laughing at me." At this point, Aunt Fu's face instantly shed a line of tears.

Mrs. Lu on the side clicked her tongue and said, "Hey, how could a good person become like this? It's so weird to look at." She has always been restless, and her favorite thing is to add insult to injury. Looking at this situation now, how can we not add more fuel to the fire

"My face was poisoned! However, I can't say anything about this person. I have no evidence, and no one will believe me if I say it." Aunt Fu cried sadly, lowering her head again and again. , and completely covered the hatred in her eyes.

Ms. Ji frowned and said, "Ms. Fu, if you are really framed, our family will not let you off lightly! Don't worry, if you are wronged, I will definitely seek justice for you someday."

After hearing this, Aunt Fu immediately raised her head, then looked at Xie Ruzhuo with meaning and said, "Then I will wait for the justice the old lady gives me! But today, the fourth lady went to search me for no reason. Isn’t the room suitable for you?”

Before Xie Ruzhuo could say anything, Mrs. Lu scolded her first, "Mrs. Fu, how could you talk to your master like this! If you have a grievance, the old lady will naturally stand up for you, but today she is investigating the poisoning of the Fourth Miss. What is your identity, and you dare to question the master’s decision?”

On the surface, Mrs. Lu was speaking for Xie Ruzhuo, but secretly she was trying to hurt Mrs. Fu. After she finished speaking, seeing the growing resentment and unwillingness in Mrs. Fu's eyes, she suddenly felt a little proud. There was a fire in someone else's backyard, so of course she had to watch it!

Mrs. Ji glanced at Mrs. Lu unhappily, and then said, "Ms. Fu, please sit down first. Xiaoyu, tell me honestly, apart from Aunt Fu, who else has been close to calla lily powder in the past two days?"

Xiao Yu frowned and thought about it for a long time, then raised her head and appraised, "Old lady, there is no one else except Aunt Fu!"

Ji asked several people in succession, but everyone had their own reasons for not being the murderer, but none of them could prove that they had nothing to do with the case.

When Xie Shenyan came back from the next court, he happened to see the Ji family at a loss. After he asked about the situation, he immediately said, "Since these unscrupulous slaves can't prove themselves, then drag them out and beat them up and sell them!"

As soon as his words came out, there were begging for mercy one after another in the room. The head steward said in a trembling voice, "Master, I have been working in the Xie family for more than thirty years. I have always been conscientious and have never made any mistakes. What happened today is really... It has nothing to do with the old slave!"

Xie Shenyan pointed at the steward and said, "You said it has nothing to do with you, so why did poison appear in the lady's snack today? You usually take it privately, do you really think that no one else knows about it? Now that something like this has happened, what do you still think? You deserve to die for shirking responsibility!”

Mrs. Qiao also felt that he had gone too far, and immediately whispered, "Master, is this punishment too severe?"

Hearing this, Xie Shenyan said, "And you, the housekeeper, are you raising these bastards?"

Mrs. Lu was watching the excitement from the side and immediately said jokingly, "Uncle, don't be so angry. After all, my sister-in-law is young and it's understandable that there are things she can't take care of." As she said that, she looked at her again. Ji said, "Mom, let me tell you, more people should be in charge of the affairs of the head of the family. When the time comes, everyone will discuss it and there won't be one person dictating the matter. Don't you think so?" "

"Why, you don't worry about your niece being poisoned. Instead, you want to fight for power. Madam Lu, if you can't say anything useful, then get back to your yard as soon as possible!" Ms. Ji listened to her. The more he spoke, the more outrageous he became. Immediately, he threw a cup over and it broke into pieces in front of Mrs. Lu.

Lu was startled and immediately stopped talking, but there was a bit more unwillingness in her eyes. She is also a daughter-in-law, but she entered the house earlier than Mr. Qiao. Why can't she get the slightest bit of power? !

When Xie Shenyan saw his mother angry, he immediately walked over to comfort her, and then said, "Mom, why not leave this matter to your son. You are old, and it is not good to worry about these things all the time."

Just as Ji was about to speak, she saw Qian Bi running in and panting, "Old madam, madam, go and have a look. The girl named Chunfang just wanted to eat something secretly, but the slave found it and dug it out." , who could have imagined that she actually spat out a ball of paper, and the servant saw how important the matter was and didn't dare to make the decision on his own!"

As soon as she heard this, Aunt Fu's face turned red immediately. She was so frightened that she ran over and grabbed Qian Bi's lapel and said, "What did you say?"

Qianbi shook Aunt Fu away and gave her a look of disdain. Then she looked at Ji and said, "I shook up the paper just now and looked at it for a few times. I saw that what was written on the paper was a prescription. Among them, There is the bone-penetrating fennel that the doctor mentioned!"

Hearing this, Ji immediately stood up and said, "Take me to have a look!"

Aunt Fu lost her mind a long time ago and stumbled out. Everyone followed and arrived at Chun Nuan Pavilion together.

Chunfang was tied up by the servants. She tried to break free, but she couldn't move at all. On the table next to her, there was a piece of wet paper spread out. Maybe it had not been swallowed for long, so the paper was still a little wet, but the writing on it was clearly visible.

Seeing Aunt Fu, Chunfang immediately shed a line of tears and watched Aunt Fu keep asking for help. Aunt Fu was no stranger to the paper on the table, so she made a decision immediately, abandoning the pawn to save the commander!

The doctor immediately checked the prescription and finally concluded, "Most of the medicines in this are consistent with the substances in the calla lily cake."

One sentence was tantamount to convicting Aunt Fu.

Mrs. Ji banged the crested crutch in her hand, and said bitterly, "Mrs. Fu, you have done a good thing!"

Mrs. Fu suddenly knelt on the ground and cried, "Old lady, I really don't know what happened. Please clarify!"

"Huh, don't know? Then ask your good maid!" Ji said, and ordered someone to pull down the cloth that was blocked in Chunfang's mouth.

Chunfang's whole body trembled when she received Fu's threatening look, but she didn't dare to tell the truth and just bit her lower lip tightly without saying a word.

Mrs. Qiao had already seen the little actions of the two of them, so she said, "Chunfang, if you tell the truth, there may be a way to survive. But if you insist on protecting others, then it is not a matter of giving away!"

However, Chunfang turned a blind eye to Mr. Qiao's threat. After a moment of silence, she raised her head and said resolutely, "Madam, I bought this prescription and I also prescribed the medicine! Because earlier, the Fourth Miss had scolded me. Once, I couldn't swallow this breath in my heart, so I took revenge on her!"

"What a vicious little girl. Fourth Miss just scolded you, but you actually hold a grudge. I'll beat you to death, you evil slave!" Before anyone else could say anything, Aunt Fu stepped forward and gave Chunfang a good beating. But while she was typing, the hand hidden in front of her was secretly writing something on Chunfang's palm.

A flash of fear flashed in Chunfang's eyes, and then she cried loudly, "Anyway, I have done what I did, and now I have harmed others instead of harming myself. Kill me or chop me into pieces, it's up to you! It's just that I'm sorry for my aunt, my aunt will not be with me in the future." I’m sorry for you, you must take care of yourself!”

Aunt Fu was still beating her, but after hearing this, she knelt straight on the ground and cried out, "Master, I'm guilty too. It's because I didn't take good care of my servants and let them do such bastards." It’s a big deal!”

Xie Ruzhuo looked at this scene of deep love between master and servant, and sneered in his heart. Then he walked to the table and said, "Isn't this piece of paper old? It looks a little yellowed, as if it has been aged for a long time." Yes. Doctor, what do you think?"

The doctor had discovered this before, but the wealthy families had the most grievances and grievances. If the master didn't talk about it, he could only pretend to be deaf and dumb. Seeing Xie Ruzhuo mention it at this moment, he told the truth, "Back to Miss Fourth, this paper is Luoyang paper that was popular more than ten years ago. According to the year when Luoyang paper was discontinued, it has been at least eleven years."

"Eleven years, well, that is to say, I beat and scolded Chunfang when I was four years old, so she held a grudge and waited for an opportunity to take revenge. She has been waiting for this opportunity for eleven years? Yes, Chunfang, how old are you this year? ?" Xie Ruzhuo's question immediately made Chunfang's face turn pale.

The others' expressions also changed instantly. Ji stared at Chunfang and said word by word, "Chunfang, if you continue to protect me, believe it or not, I will order you to be killed with a stick right now!" In eleven years, Chunfang is only over 20 years old. No matter what, He wouldn’t be so scheming!
