Sometimes, Jingwan admired these people who could act at any time and place. She was howling so fiercely, but when she stopped, she didn't seem to be in a sorry state. She was like a weeping beauty. If it was someone who didn't know, even if it was a woman, their heart would soften. However, in the face of her grandmother, who had experienced decades of wind and rain, those tricks were really not enough.
Madame Luo walked to the side and sat down, "Old lady, what's the situation?"
Madame Wang knew that Madame Luo didn't avoid Jingwan, so she directly said, "Mother, the thing is, Madame Bai's daily food comes from the small kitchen of the Falling Plum House, …"
As soon as she finished speaking, Madame Luo turned her head to look at Jingwan, and Jingwan seemed to sense it and looked back. At that moment, Jingwan read the meaning in Madame Luo's eyes: See, your mother is such an idiot.
Jingwan was helpless. Her mother's purpose was actually very simple. She hoped that the pregnant concubine would be able to eat well. After all, without the support of her husband, a concubine would be a concubine. Even if she was pregnant, the amount of food she ate would not be better than that of the official wife. She would eat from the small kitchen, and she would even subsidize the concubine.
Madame Zhang used to do this before, but nothing happened. Now it was the same as before. It was not that the people around her didn't remind her, but Madame Zhang was so naive and sweet. She thought that everyone in the world had the same thoughts as her. Not only did she promise that nothing would happen, but she also said that it was not good for the people around her to speculate about others with bad intentions.
Jingwan was very busy a few days ago, and the people of the Falling Plum House didn't want to disturb her with this matter. They asked her to persuade Madame Zhang, thinking that it was only a few days, so nothing should happen. In the end, hehe, they all regretted it.
"… Today, Madam Bai asked for some desserts. Not long after she ate, her stomach began to hurt. Soon, she saw red and reported it to her younger sister-in-law. Her younger sister-in-law invited a doctor she was familiar with from outside, but by the time the doctor arrived, the child was already gone. Daughter-in-law had someone check the desserts. There was indeed something unclean inside. The person in charge of making the desserts was second sister-in-law's head maidservant, Lamei. The person who delivered the desserts was second sister-in-law's second rank maidservant, Liu 'er. Liu' er personally handed the desserts to Bai shi's maidservant, Cai Ling. The three maidservants all said that during the time the desserts were in their hands, no unrelated person had touched them. The ingredients used for the wintersweet were all ready-made from the Fallen Plum House. Her daughter-in-law had sent people to check the ingredients, and there were no problems. … "
In that case, the problem basically lay with these three people.
The bell was a clever one. She swore that she did not do anything. She was the only one who followed Bai shi into the Luo family. She was loyal to Bai shi. She hoped more than anyone that her yiniang could give birth to a boy or a girl.
Liu 'er was usually lively, but she was not the least bit careless when it came to doing things. She received the desserts from Lamei and handed them to Cai Ling. Along the way, there were basically people who saw her. After she finished her part, she did not say anything more.
As for Lamei, she was not a child of the Luo family. When she was a few years old, she was bought into the Luo family and followed Madame Zhang. From a little maidservant, she was promoted to Madame Zhang's head maidservant a year ago. She was a little dull and clumsy. Because she was very good at making desserts, although she did not do anything in the kitchen, she often made desserts for Madame Zhang. When she learned that something had happened to Madame Bai, she was so anxious that she cried. She repeatedly said that she did not do it. When Madame Bai slandered Madame Zhang, she also said that the madame was not that kind of person. She could not say a word more.
"… As for the doctor, it was Madame Bai's second-rank maidservant, Zhu 'er, who reported it to my younger sister-in-law. My younger sister-in-law said that she only heard that Madame Bai was not feeling well, so she went to invite a doctor from outside as usual and did not bother the doctor in the house. However, Zhu' er said that she had explained Madame Bai's situation very clearly and said that it was very serious. She wanted to make an exception and ask the doctor in the house to take a look. However, my younger sister-in-law said that she was just a concubine, so there was no need to bother the doctor in the house.
The ins and outs of the whole thing were basically clear now. It was just a routine.
If she investigated carefully, she would definitely find some clues. However, whether she could find the mastermind behind the scenes in the end depended on that person's skills. What was more, Jingwan was curious about the role of the old maid who was locked in the woodshed in her courtyard in this matter. One thing was certain. She ran to her courtyard on the spur of the moment. Mama Gong had already investigated who she had met before she went to Begonia Elegant House. However, in Jingwan's opinion, if this matter was really her third aunt's doing, there might be no result in the end.
Jingwan's eyes fell on her third aunt. She lowered her eyebrows and narrowed her eyes. There was no sadness or joy on her face. The expression in her eyes could not be seen clearly. Her whole person was quiet. It must be said that Madame Liu was a person with a sense of propriety. She knew that her grandmother did not like her very much, so she did not go forward to make trouble. In front of others, she was not strong, but she was never weak.
In the beginning, the other mistresses of the Luo family's inner court weren't sure if she was in control of the entire situation or if the other yiniangs were framing each other. However, after a long time, even if they still didn't have any evidence against her, they more or less had an idea.
Madame Liu's face was naturally thicker than Luo Jingying's. You could never catch her fault on the surface. You could not see her gaffe unless she deliberately showed it. However, if she was really the same on the surface, then she would not have raised a daughter with Luo Jingying's temperament. In this ancient era, a mother's influence on their children, especially their daughters, was too great. If she did not have the memory of her previous life, perhaps she would have become as silly and sweet as Madame Zhang.
Because when she was in Qi 'an Prefecture, Jingwan was puzzled about this point. Taking advantage of the fact that children were not easy to be noticed, and she had a lot of time, she secretly watched Madame Liu for more than half a year. In this way, she discovered Madame Liu's unknown side.
At that time, Jingwan was very surprised. If this person lived in a certain circle in her previous life, she would be like a fish in water. She would definitely get an Oscar.
Madame Liu always regarded herself as the descendant of the founding duke. She could not see or was unwilling to see the reality. But she was a very rational person. She never revealed her inner thoughts to others. To sum it up, she was a maidservant, but she had the dream of being a princess.
After understanding Madame Liu's thoughts, Jingwan sometimes felt that it was ridiculous. Her third uncle was only a son of a concubine. Even if his grandparents passed away, when they separated, he did not get much. Her third uncle's eyes were high, but his ability was mediocre. Madame Liu saw through him too clearly, so she pinned all her hopes on her children. If she really put all her thoughts on teaching the two children, she may not be unable to get what she wanted in the future. Unfortunately, her mind had long been crooked. She was always scheming, especially when she was the one who suppressed her daughter. She couldn't wait to be torn into pieces.
Moreover, Madam Liu had a very strong sense of vanity and jealousy in her bones. If others were doing well, she would be unhappy. Luo Jingying had learned this from her. However, in the entire Luo family's backyard, only her mother was good at scheming. Unexpectedly, her mother was supported by her father. Even if someone splashed dirty water on her mother, her father would believe that she was pure and innocent. So, Madame Liu didn't really make a move that many times.
Jingwan didn't know what other people thought about this matter, but she felt that it was most likely Third Aunt's doing. She was as ruthless as ever. Who knew how long she had hidden these spies in Falling Plum House? If she dared to expose them, there was at least a 90% chance that she would frame her mother. It was fine if it was a normal matter, but when it came to his children, even if it was her father, he would definitely be unhappy. More importantly, Madam Zhang's image in the hearts of the servants was completely ruined. No matter how good she was in the past, they would all think that she was putting on an act and had a Buddha's mouth but a snake's heart. If it was a scheming person, this situation wouldn't be a big deal because she could suppress it and turn the tables. However, if it was Madam Zhang, her life would probably be difficult.
Her purpose was not to kill Madame Zhang, because she knew very well that this was not enough to kill Madame Zhang. She just didn't want Madame Zhang to be free and happy all day, which would make Jingwan unhappy.
Jingwan thought about it carefully. If this game was successful, it would really hit the snake at its weak point!
