Chapter 402: Black hands, only relative
Housekeeper Cao rushed to find Lin Chujiu, not because Xiao w.a.n.gfu was in trouble, but because the Meng Family had an accident!
The Meng brothers, when something happened to Lin Chujiu in the palace . They kept it a secret to the old lady . But tonight, there were people, who were short-sighted, deliberately mentioned this matter to Meng Laofuren . And they made the situation sounds so serious .
In regard to this matter, those people said to the old lady that, Lin Chujiu was suspected of poisoning and murdering the seventh prince, so she was imprisoned in the palace . And now, her life and death are unknown .
In this life, the first thing that can make Meng Laofuren worried was the Meng Family . The second thing was Lin Chujiu . So, when she heard the people, she felt something was wrong .
Meng Laofuren has always been wise and farsighted in her entire life . She doesn’t know if this intentional, but... ...
As clever as she is, she knew this must be true . Because fake acting cannot fool her .
“Ah... ...” Meng Laofuren opened her mouth, she wanted to call the maidservant outside, but because of her current situation, she couldn’t do anything . She could only continue to listen to the two women in front of her, who kept describing how tragic the situation of her grandchildren now . Especially, Lin Chujiu .
“Speaking of this matter, the young master is really pitiful . If he wasn’t implicated by Xiao w.a.n.gfei, he will not suffer such bitterness . If master didn’t send someone in time to save him, I’m afraid that he will die on the spot . ”
“Not just pitiful, he is very pitiful . He was also kidnapped by a group of wicked people before, right? Although he was saved at that time, he was hurt and still lying on the bed . He couldn’t get out of the bed for a long time . ”
“However, Xiao w.a.n.gfei also suffered a lot . Regardless of her ident.i.ty, she came out alone . Such a weak woman was detained for a night, I don’t know what might have happened . ”
“To save face, Xiao w.a.n.gye didn’t send away Xiao w.a.n.gfei, but we can’t guarantee how long will it be . If this matter spread out, Xiao w.a.n.gfei cannot come out clean . ”
“Xiao w.a.n.gye went to the battlefield and left Xiao w.a.n.gfei all alone in the capital . I also heard that when Xiao w.a.n.gfei was in the palace prison, no one came to see her . It’s really painful to think about it . If a person was imprisoned in the palace, it means you reached the bottom line of the people above . Seeing that n.o.body support Xiao w.a.n.gfei, I don’t know what will happen to her . ”
“Is there really no way for her to get out? Xiao w.a.n.gfu has no female master except Xiao w.a.n.gfei . And Xiao w.a.n.gfei’s relations.h.i.+p with her family is bad . Lin Furen will definitely not save her . As for our family?”
“The three masters and furens doesn’t want to see Xiao w.a.n.gfei . They were only polite to Xiao w.a.n.gfei because of Laofuren . They didn’t actually want to get involved with her . After all, young master had an accident because of Xiao w.a.n.gfei . ”
”I’m afraid that the three masters hate Xiao w.a.n.gfei to death this time . So, why would they help Xiao w.a.n.gfei? If Laofuren isn’t here, the three masters probably retaliate back . ”
The two women, in front of Meng Laofuren, described how tragic the situation Lin Chujiu was in . Although their words were exaggerated, the actual event was almost like this .
Meng Laofuren couldn’t stop the two, she could only watch them described Lin Chujiu’s situation one by one, as her paralyzed body kept trembling on the bed .
The two women acted like they didn’t see it... ...
“It’s a pity that the Laofuren is like this . It’s hard for her to protect herself . So, how can she save Xiao w.a.n.gfei?”
“Her stepmother and uncles don’t care, Xiao w.a.n.gye is unhappy about her . Only Laofuren care . Xiao w.a.n.gfei really lives a sad life . ”
“The emperor hated her, the empress didn’t like her, and now, she offended the Southern Princess. Even if Xiao w.a.n.gfei wants to live until Xiao w.a.n.gye came back, it won’t be easy."
“I am afraid that Xiao w.a.n.gfei will die sooner than Laofuren."
“Ah... ...” Meng Laofuren was so angry. In her anger, her body trembled constantly. And due to this excitement, she was able to turn herself. The two women saw the old lady fell off the bed.
“Not good, let’s go out quickly...” When the two saw the old lady, they slipped away quietly. They didn’t go out to call people for help at all. Only when the trusted maidservant of the old lady came, Meng Laofuren was found lying on the floor.
“Someone come, someone come... ...” The Old Mama screamed and screamed while holding the old lady.
In a few moments, several people came over. The Meng brothers also rushed in after hearing the news. When they put back the old lady on the bed, they gave her warm water and invited a doctor. After checking, the doctor announced that the old lady was not in danger. Only after that, they felt relieved.
When the old lady got out of danger, Meng Master began to ask the everyone around him: "What the h.e.l.l is this? How do you people take care of mother? Where are the people watching mother at night?"
When Da Furen heard this, she knew that she couldn’t get out of this. She immediately asked people to check the maidservants who were watching the old lady at night. They want to know how did this happen.
Not long after, the housekeeper rushed in with anxious looked in the face: "Master, not good, not good... ... the two maidservants watching the old lady at night are dead."
The Meng Master was stupefied on the spot, and Da Furen was scared... ...
The people were dead, which shows that this thing was not a simple case of negligence. Someone deliberately wants to take the old lady’s life.
“This, what’s going on?” Da Furen’s hands and feet got cold. The other people wanted to comfort her, but they don’t know what to say... ...
The Meng brothers looked at each other, but they don’t know what to do.
“When mother woke up, let’s talk.” Finally, Meng Master said his decision. It’s just... ...
With Meng Laofuren’s situation, what can she do after she woke up?
After such a thing happened, several members of the family didn’t dare to sleep. They guarded altogether in the outer room.
Fortunately, the weather was warm, and Meng Laofuren wasn’t left lying on the floor for too long. Not long after, she woke up. However, as soon as she woke up, she grabbed tightly the hand of the Old Mama and said: "Chujiu... jiu."
Meng Laofuren used all her strength to spit out those words, as tears came out from eyes. Her lips also bleed for biting accidentally.
“Laofuren, laofuren, don’t speak, this slave understands what you mean. You want me to call Xiao w.a.n.gfei, right?" The Old Mama served Meng Laofuren for decades, so she could easily tell what’s on her mind.
“Um, um...” Meng Laofuren nodded hard, her muddled eyes were covered with tears. No one knew what exactly her thinking.
The Old Mama turned around and quickly reported Meng Laofuren’s request. When the Meng brothers heard of it, they refused to do it. There was a curfew and how could they send people in Xiao w.a.n.gfu in the middle of the night, but... ...
People couldn’t wait for a long time.
The more Meng Laofuren wait for Lin Chujiu, the more her heart became anxious: "Chu... grand, granddaughter." However, she couldn’t express her meaning completely. She could only call Lin Chujiu with all her might.
“Laofuren, laofuren, don’t worry. Xiao w.a.n.gfei will be here soon." Who know’s what the old lady heard, but she had to comfort her.
But......
After some more delay, she could no longer wait for Lin Chujiu. She thought that something might have really happened to Lin Chujiu. After this excitement, Meng Laofuren’s eyes closed... ...
