Chapter 136
With this illness, Lin Yujin was unable to move for a long time.

Many people were changed back and forth in the courtyard, and Mrs. Liu changed all those who did not understand the family relationship.

Shui Mi also returned to the yard with the news.

On this day, Yuan Yue was referred to the West Music Academy, and she was re-examined. Except for the Wei family and the Heping family who came from outside, all the people in the house gathered in the courtyard, which was very lively.

Liu looked at her daughter sitting beside her, touched her hand distressedly, and asked Chang's mother to cover her legs with a thin quilt, for fear that she would freeze and become ill later.

The old lady sat in the first seat, Lin Chengping sat in the main seat, Lin Zhenglan sat in the lower seat, and the rest of the people sat on the stools, looking at the kneeling people below.

Although she used to do chores in the courtyard, the glamorous little girl has now become a disheveled and stained mess.

"You said that day that I instigated you. Unfortunately, you had an illness these few days. How you said that day, you say it again, I can't remember clearly."

Yuan Yue grabbed the corner of the skirt, noticed the dirt on it, let go of it hastily, glanced at Lin Yushu hastily, then lowered her head with trembling eyes.

"Slave... I was forced by you... You used money to buy the slave. In order to make the slave agree to you, you threatened the slave. If you don't agree to your request, you will sell the slave..." Yuan Yue rolled her eyes from side to side , Thinking about everything, remember everything, and face this review.

"How much money will I give you?" Lin Yujin closed her eyes, pinching her browbones as if tired.

"Ten...Ten taels..."

"When did I tell you?"

"The time the old lady punished you for copying books..."

"Why did you arrange for you to be poisoned until today?"

"You hold a grudge, and it's only now confirmed."

"How did I poison you?"

"Put it in pastries and ice powder. You said it's chronic, and it's not easy to be discovered."

"What is the name of the poison I asked you to cast?"

"...You didn't say it, the servant didn't know..."

Lin Yujin took a sip of the tea beside her, and she didn't need to ask any more questions.

Lin Chengping's expression was very ugly at this time, but he had to continue the review.

"Quichu, answer what the girl said."

Que Chu stepped forward, took out the previous confession of Yuan Yue, and read it out one by one.

"It's 15 taels of silver. The name of this poison is longevity grass. The girl is dissatisfied with the old lady's punishment of the girl, but she didn't say why."

"Yuan Yue, what excuse do you have?" Lin Yujin looked at her with disappointment in her eyes.

A girl in her early ten years old, no matter what the conclusion of this matter is, her life will be lost.

"Slave... Please don't be obsessed with your obsession."

"Shui Tan, bring that child up."

Yuan Yue's face changed suddenly, and she froze in place, not daring to move at all.

Shui Tan led a thin child in and walked in, kept him in the backyard, washed his body and changed his clothes, no longer looked dirty at first.

He looked like five or six years old, and he didn't know how to speak very much, he could only answer a question, Shui Tan coaxed him to walk in front of the crowd.

The child looked at the crowd timidly, and leaned on Shuitan, beggingly looking at Shuitan, hoping that she would take him away.

"Who is this?" Shui Tan pointed at Yuan Yue, asking him to recognize him.

Yuan Yue didn't dare to look up, the child looked down at her and shook his head, expressing that he didn't know her.

Mother Fang walked up to Yuan Yue, pinched her face with one hand, and forced her to look up.

The child looked again, and clapped his hands happily, "Sister, I've been looking for you for a long time!"

Lin Yujin waved her hand and asked Shuitan to take her down.

"Yuan Yue, do you know where I found him?"

Yuan Yue's face was bloodless, she looked up at her blankly, and shook her head.

"In a slum, he was adopted by a beggar. When he was found, he was suffering from a high fever and almost died. What he was shouting was your original name. It made people feel distressed when he heard it."

"Girl, don't say anything, I'll say anything, please don't say anything!" Yuan Yue covered her ears and didn't want to listen anymore. The man clearly promised herself that she would take good care of him and make him feel comfortable...

"Just tell what you know."

"A person came to me, wearing a veil, holding the clothes of my younger brother when I was a child, and said that he had been found. If I listened to her, I would let him live comfortably and find him a good family, but I don't know. , she will leave him there, she said that if I don't listen to him, she will kill my brother, girl, I can't help... I'm sorry..." Yuan Yue lowered her head, and the sound of crying spread to everyone in the ears.

Lin Chengping's face was ugly right now, he opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.

Liu's people dragged her down, and after the investigation was over, she found someone to sell her teeth, or beat her to death.

"Qi Chu, how is the investigation of the bone meal?"

"The woman guarding the ancestral hall said that the ointment came from the Anping Courtyard, and Miss Shuitan also said that a woman slipped it in through the crack of the door, saying that it was given by the wife."

Immediately, Liu couldn't sit still. She was worried that Lin Yujin had someone send the ointment in. This was harming her under her nose!
"The old slave has been to the ancestral hall, but the woman guarding it doesn't allow anyone to go in at all, saying that the master ordered them to die if they go in, so the old slave handed the ointment to the old woman inside." Chang's mother argued immediately road.

"Bring the two wives in!"

Quechu brought the people up and knelt on the ground by pressing them.

"Tell me, what's the matter with this ointment, if you don't tell me, I'll sell you all!" Liu Shi was trembling with anger, she would never allow it to end like this at this time.

"This... a little girl came after Chang's mother left, and said that the ointment was wrong, and she changed it to another..." One of the thin women peeked at the crowd, and shook her body to tell the story.

"What does that girl look like, and where did she come from?" Chang's mother was in a hurry, and someone dared to steal the ointment she sent!

"Looks like it's from my aunt's place..."

Now it was the turn of Aunt Rou and Aunt Zhou to be anxious.

The two quickly said that they didn't have one and would not do such a thing.

Mrs. Liu was furious, and ordered to call all the maids in the two yards together to search them out.

After searching around, they couldn't find it, until someone said that when they were fetching water, they saw someone throwing into the well, and two women pointed out that it was the one who threw into the well.

After Aunt Rou saw him, she fainted from fright, and Biyun was also pale, this is the girl from their yard.

The Liu family immediately wanted to find someone to beat Aunt Rou to death, and murdered the son and daughter of the legitimate son, and the crime should be punished!
"Master is not me, it's really not me, I have never harmed Fourth Miss." Aunt Rou cried uncontrollably, if this matter was really on her head, her life would be lost.
