Xin Nian took off Gu Changting's cloak and hung it up, only to hear him sigh: "My mother is sick. At first, she refused to let me know. She just said she was tired and didn't want to see me. I heard something was wrong in her voice, so I hurriedly went into the house.

, and then I found out that she was sick. She said that what happened in the past few days would inevitably make her angry, and it was not a big deal. She was afraid that I would know that she would blame herself and feel guilty, so she simply refused to tell me and refused to ask a doctor. How could this work? So I just said

I asked Mr. Gu to take my post and personally invite Dr. Wang to come over. Alas! Even though I was planning for the palace, I didn’t agree with my mother’s actions. But when I saw her like this, I couldn’t help but feel guilty and sad. Niannian, you are right.

, Sure enough, it is difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs. The affairs in the palace are more tiring than dealing with all the open and covert attacks in the court."

Seeing Gu Changting's droopy head, Xin Nian suddenly realized it. He couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart and praised the princess for her good skills.

No wonder Luye died at this time, but no, he had to die at this time. While the prince was going to several cities in a row and was feeling guilty, he should remove this biggest hidden danger. If he got sick again, he would show off in front of his son.

I am a loving mother who has worked so hard, but I am afraid that I cannot let go of this matter lightly.

After chatting casually for a few words, Xin Nian mentioned the death of Lu Ye. He first explained how he had dealt with it, and then said softly: "I thought about it, so many things happened in the house one after another, and the concubine was even sick because she got angry.

, It’s really not appropriate to bother her anymore because of this, so let’s just leave it like this. I asked people not to spread rumors, and gradually no one mentioned it, so that’s fine, but one day the concubine will know about it..."

Before he could finish speaking, he heard Gu Changting say repeatedly: "It's good if you handle it this way. It doesn't matter if the concubine knows. Luye is your girl and has nothing to do with mother. She can just ask and it will be over."

"Okay." Kanshu La

Xin Nian's face remained calm, but she sighed in her heart, and her whole body was filled with a sense of powerlessness: There was really nothing she could do about the affection between mother and child.

Under Xin Nian's instructions, no one mentioned the green leaves soon. Time passed day by day, and it was late autumn in the blink of an eye.

On this day, it started to rain from the morning, and it didn't stop until the afternoon. Mrs. Liao ordered people to come over. She only said that the master and the girls in the house wanted to make winter clothes, and asked Xin Nian to open the warehouse to get satin, so Xin Nian ordered

Lychee and Xinghua took several women to the warehouse, while she asked people to light candles and take care of the accounts in the house.

I had just counted two pages when I heard the thumping of footsteps outside the door, so I raised my head and secretly wondered what happened again? I was so anxious. Just as I was about to ask, I saw the girl Hongxiu barging in and saying in a panic: "Auntie

,You...what do you think this is?"

"Um?"

Last month, the family bought a dozen girls, including Hong Xiu and Qing Qing Fang Cao Bi Yun. Because Lychee Xinghua was getting married and Chun Yu was only responsible for taking care of the six girls, Xin Nian wanted them.

They come to serve.

"What?"

Xin Nian took the box from Hongxiu's hand and felt it was heavy. He opened it doubtfully, and a burst of brilliance overflowed. Looking carefully, there were more than a dozen gold and silver ingots, a pair of jasper bracelets, and two precious hairpins in the box.

, five gemstone rings, and even a jade waist chain.

"This...where did you get it?"

Xin Nian was stunned, but saw Hongxiu shaking her head repeatedly and saying: "The room I just moved to today was originally occupied by a girl named Lu Ye. Since she died not long ago, Sister Xinghua thought it was unlucky, so she asked me to wait for a while.

I moved again, but the windows in my house were leaking and the cold was unbearable. I wasn’t afraid of that. The green leaves didn’t die in that house, so what’s the point? I told Sister Xinghua and we moved in this morning.

After a lot of tidying up, I found this under the bed board. It was wrapped with several layers of handkerchiefs. When I opened it, it was this box. I took a look and was so frightened that I quickly came to tell my aunt that this... this thing has nothing to do with me.

ah."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xin Nian closed the box with a snap, his face so gloomy that he seemed to be dripping water.

Hongxiu was so frightened that she became silent and cried: "Auntie, it's really... it's not me..."

"I understand, go down and don't mention this to others."

Xin Nian smiled at Hongxiu, and watched the little girl nodding ignorantly and went out. Then she gritted her teeth and cursed: "You are a black-hearted person who attacked two children just for these things, and in the end you lost your life in vain."

, how about it? After you die, can you still bring your things to the coffin?"

After finishing the scolding, he thought about it again and called outside: "Is Litchi back? Ask her to see me immediately."

"Yes." The little girl outside agreed. About half a quarter of an hour later, Lychee came in and said with a smile, "Auntie, what's the matter? I was in the warehouse earlier and met Aunt Qian from the concubine's courtyard. She said

The concubine was admiring the rain in the yard. She felt that the weather was getting cold, so she asked her to go to the warehouse to get a piece of soft leather to cover the chairs. My aunt heard that the score was arranged, and you may not be able to buy a good soft leather with dozens of taels of silver.

"Our concubine is just laying out the chairs, but lamb skin is enough. Aunt Qian insists on white fox skin. Xinghua and I have no choice but to let her pick out a good piece..."

Seeing that Xin Nian's expression was not right as he was talking, Lychee stopped talking and asked cautiously: "What's wrong with Auntie?"

"Nothing." Xin Nian looked at the box in his hand and said calmly: "You said the concubine is enjoying the rain right now?"

"Yes." Lychee nodded: "Luckily, she is not afraid of thunder. Since the afternoon, the thunder has sounded four or five times, each time getting louder and louder."

Xin Nian sneered: "Of course she's not afraid. This is probably the last rain this autumn. Once the rain is over, it's over. What does she have to be afraid of?"

After saying that, he stood up, handed the box to Lychee, and said in a deep voice: "This is what I found in the Green Leaf Room, take a look."

"Ah? In the Green Leaf Room?" Lychee was surprised. He quickly opened it and shouted after just one glance: "This... this is the golden hairpin that Hoof got from the concubine. Yes, I was following her at that time.

, she didn’t see me, and she took it out and looked at the sun. The slave girl clearly remembered the black pearls inlaid on it. Because they were rare and hard to find, the slave girl also thought that the concubine was willing to spend a lot of money to harm the young master and the girl.

..."

"As expected. It seems that everything in this box was given to her by the concubine."

Xin Nian took the box and heard Li Zhi say in confusion: "This is her fate, why did it end up in our courtyard? Why didn't she take it with her that day?"

Xin Niandao: "There are everyone in the laundry room. There are more than a dozen rough girls living in Datongpu. She brought this there, where is she going to hide it? What if she doesn't hide it tightly and it gets stolen again? I think

At that time, she was sure that she would have a future, and when she went to the concubine's courtyard to become a big girl, it would not be too late to find time to come back and get it. The fact was also true. This thing had been under the bed board for almost half a year, and no one found it.

When Hong Xiu was cleaning up today, I somehow saw it."

Lychee sighed, shook her head and said, "It's really a matter of fate. How could she have imagined that when she went to the laundry room, she didn't even have the opportunity to see her lifeblood again, and she died."
