These words were so unpleasant that even Uncle Zhao could not help coughing.
"Ahem, Rongrong, you can't talk like that."
Jun Rongrong listened to Fourth Uncle Zhao's words. After glaring at Fang Rao angrily, she finally closed her mouth.
Fourth Uncle Zhao looked at Lin Mengya again, his eyes were shining, and he knew at a glance that she was a person who was not easy to fool.
"Miss Su, right?"
Lin Mengya stood up and bowed according to the etiquette of a junior.
I have to say that with Jun Rongrong as his foil, Fourth Uncle Zhao only felt that this little girl looked more polite and generous.
His attitude was quite friendly, but his words were full of threats.
"The accident happened to your personal maid. I want to know how you want to explain this matter to the Zhao family."
Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows and sneered secretly in her heart.
We haven't found out the truth yet, so we need her to explain it, right?
They even used the entire Zhao family to suppress her, which was just to cut off Aunt Fang's possibility of helping her.
But she, Lin Mengya, is she a person who will bow to power?
"I wonder what explanation you want?" She took out her notebook and wrote.
Although the vigorous font is not considered to be extremely good, it can also reveal the character of the person who wrote it.
Fourth Uncle Zhao glanced at her and didn't ask her why she didn't speak, but the slightly drooped corners of her mouth still showed some dissatisfaction in his heart.
"The evidence for this matter is conclusive. Except for your personal maid, no one has been close to the old lady's medicine. What? Do you think that our Zhao family will wrongly accuse you casually?"
Fang Rao also felt something was wrong. Just as he was about to step forward to speak for her, Lin Mengya stopped him with a look.
She continued to write in the notebook, "Of course the Zhao family will not accuse us unjustly, but I want to know, since it is said that both people got the stolen goods, did anyone see with their own eyes that it was my maid who administered the poison?"
Elder Zhao frowned and was about to speak, but Jun Rongrong said, "She is in the big kitchen but everyone can see the fact. Who else would have the opportunity to poison her?"
Lin Mengya just glanced at her and continued writing.
"Since my maid was alone in the big kitchen, that means no one saw her drugging her, and no one saw her not drugging her. So, why do you insist that she was the one who drugged her?"
Jun Rongrong was stunned and said dissatisfiedly, "You are using strong words! No one in the big kitchen knows how to administer medicine except her."
Lin Mengya wrote lightly, "How can you be so sure?"
Jun Rongrong wanted to say that no one had a grudge against her except them, so it must be her.
But unfortunately, Fourth Uncle Zhao didn't want her to continue to be embarrassed.
"Miss Su is very eloquent."
The tone of these words was neither salty nor light, and even Fang Rao didn't hear it. Is Uncle Zhao angry or not?
Lin Mengya turned the page and started writing again.
"What I wrote is all true. If my maid is judged to have poisoned her just because she was alone, then I will definitely not be convinced."
Fourth Uncle Zhao glanced at her little notebook, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.
"It seems that I was really careless. However, your maid must be suspected of poisoning. Can you admit this?"
Lin Mengya nodded and wrote, "Not only her, but everyone who entered and exited the big kitchen during that period that day is also suspected. Therefore, if a detailed investigation is to be carried out, it is only fair that all those people should be investigated."
The people next to her didn't see what she wrote, but Uncle Zhao nodded.
"Okay, then just follow what you wrote."
He pondered for a moment and looked at Fang Rao.
"Fang Rao, this matter is your family's business. I think I'll leave it to you."
Fang Rao was a little hesitant, but this was a good opportunity to prove Cairu's innocence. Without thinking too much, she agreed.
Although Jun Rongrong was dissatisfied with this method of handling the matter, she still had the courage to question Fourth Master Zhao's decision.
Fourth Uncle Zhao actually completely left the matter of the old lady's poisoning to Fang Rao.
Although Cairu is still one of the suspects, he is no longer the only suspect.
Fang Rao sent people to Lin Mengya.
The master and servant entered the courtyard and immediately closed the door tightly.
Lin Mengya asked about the cause and effect.
This is completely a clumsy frame-up. As long as Aunt Fang is careful, she can find out in just a few days.
But what is the purpose of the other party doing this?
That night, Lin Mengya was still puzzled until she went to bed.
Therefore, I didn't realize that it was almost the time for my daily rest, but my man hadn't come back yet.
A strong wind blew through the window, and she couldn't help but shrink into the quilt.
When I subconsciously looked for the familiar heat source, I was surprised to find that no one was there.
She got off the ground and found that the night sky was extremely gloomy.
"It's probably going to rain. Master, it's better to go back and rest early." Bai Su was responsible for keeping vigil and reminded him thoughtfully when he saw the situation.
"Where's Long Tianyu?" She knocked on the door frame and asked.
Bai Su thought for a moment, "Maybe he went out. I haven't seen His Highness since you and Cairu came back."
Have you gone out? Still not back so late?
Could it be that we encountered some problem?
But if this person went out, he should at least leave a note for her.
Could it be that he was tripped up by something that happened outside temporarily?
But after three days in a row, Lin Mengya didn't see Long Tianyu come back.
Although her man's abilities have returned, she is still worried.
At the same time, the Zhao family's door was closed because of the old lady's poisoning. For fear of being tipped off by the murderer, no one in the family was allowed to go out.
It has been cloudy these past few days, the air pressure is low, and she always feels depressed.
In addition to the influence of weather, it is more likely to be some kind of omen.
On the afternoon of the fourth day, someone found a dead body in the backyard.
After Cairu's testimony, the other person was the one who tried to slip poison into her on the day of the incident.
Moreover, based on the decomposition of the body, Lin Mengya also proved that the other party died on the day of the incident, but was buried in the flower soil in the backyard.
The neck of the dead body was broken neatly, and there were no obvious signs of struggle on the body.
Either it means the other party is a master, or an acquaintance committed the crime.
Lin Mengya and Fang Rao felt that something was getting tricky at the same time.
Because no matter which possibility it is, it shows that the other party has premeditated it.
But they knew nothing about each other.
"I'm going to send someone to deliver news to the master. He should be back in a few days. As long as the master comes back, we don't have to worry." Aunt Fang said in a low voice.
But Lin Mengya grabbed her wrist and threw out the small book.
"You mean, Elder Zhao's return date is within these days?"
Fang Rao nodded.
"He sent me a letter before, saying that everything will be discussed until he comes back. I've calculated the days, and it will be in these few days."
Lin Mengya suddenly thought of something and quickly asked, "Aunt Fang, send someone out to pretend to deliver a letter and see if anyone is watching your people."
Fang Rao saw the serious look on her face and did not dare to neglect her.
In less than two hours, Fang Rao found her with a serious face.
"The people I sent out were indeed being followed. They even wanted to ambush them halfway."
Lin Mengya had a flash of inspiration and suddenly thought of Yu's disappearance.
He left quietly on the day the old lady was poisoned, without even alerting anyone.
Looking back, from the moment he arrived at Zhao's house, Long Tianyu intentionally or unintentionally downplayed his sense of existence.
For example, on the day when Jun Rongrong caused trouble, and when Fourth Uncle Zhao came, Yu did not show up.
In other words, some people in this house don't even know whether he is there or not.
And from what happened Starting that day, a witness was killed, and they voluntarily sealed off the mansion because of this incident. Even if there was any movement outside, they had no time to take care of it.
These days, it is Elder Zhao's return date.
Everything finally has an answer.
"They want to harm Elder Zhao! Moreover, we are already under their surveillance!"
She wrote urgently on the paper.
Fang Rao also felt dizzy.
how so?
"Yes! Xiao'er is also missing. Damn it, how could I ignore such an obvious problem? They must be afraid that we will tip off the news, so they did this to divert our attention!"
But now, they have lost the initiative.
The possibility of seeking help from outside has been cut off.
The only thing they can do is to save themselves in the house.
But there's still a problem.
They didn't know if there were any spies in the house.
If they move too much and are discovered, the person who designed all this will definitely find a way to deal with them.
Yu was in a hurry when she left, but she must have left enough people to protect her and her children.
However, she couldn't just watch Aunt Fang and the others ignore her.
While thinking about it, she saw Zhao Ziyan, who had gradually become more lively in the past few days.
A light flashed in her eyes, and she had a good idea.
On the seventh day, although everyone in the Zhao family was as usual, some keen people noticed that both those delivering water and those delivering rice, flour and food had been absent for several days.
Although this situation has happened before, it is not common.
You must know that the Zhao family is also a large family, and their food and clothing expenses are consumed very quickly.
Although they still have some food left, they won't last more than a few days.
While they found it strange, they couldn't help but secretly guess.
But soon, something happened again in the house.
Zhao Ziyan's old illness relapsed.
Most people in the mansion know how bad the only young master in the mansion behaves in private.
Every once in a while, one or two of the servants who once served him would disappear.
It is said that he killed them all with his own hands.
Therefore, many servants secretly spread rumors that Zhao Ziyan was crazy and would kill people whenever he became ill.
This time, the person really died instead of disappearing suddenly.
It is said that when the wife saw it, she became furious and had already banned Zhao Ziyan.
For a time, everyone was in danger.
This is poisoning and killing people. The Zhao family has been really uneasy these days.
