The Self-cultivation of a Salted Fish Concubine

Chapter 182 Confused

Qiu Kui and several second-class maids beside her were all surprised and shouted quickly, "Master!"

Fang Yuaner stared at the two wet nurses with calm eyes.

"It's my stupidity as a mother!"

"It's fine that you didn't know people well, but you two bitches didn't care enough when I entrusted my child to you. You almost killed my child!"

It was her fault, she took it upon herself.

But she will never let go easily of these two wet nurses who made her son sick!

Fang Yuaner gritted her teeth and said, "Go and ask the prince to come over!"

She stared at the two wet nurses coldly: "You'd better make sure you're telling the truth. If I find out again that you're being instigated by someone..."

Fang Yuaner sneered, "Even if I die, I will never let you live!"

The two wet nurses were so frightened that they trembled and shook uncontrollably all over.

He kept kneeling on the ground and kowtowing for mercy.

In Chunshan Courtyard, Xie Run was playing the game of catching little tigers with Taotao.

Taotao can now sit with his back resting on a pillow.

Xie Run had someone build a fence around the warm couch and put a few toys inside for Taotao to play with.

Although Taotao was still crying because of abdominal distension in the morning, he was fine and energetic in the afternoon.

He was always cheerful and the laughter never stopped.

Xie Run leaned on the couch and watched him play. Listening to his laughter, he felt much more relaxed.

Dan Tao brought in a bowl of soup and said, "Master, drink some soup to warm yourself up."

Xie Run: "Put it aside and eat it later."

Dan Tao put the soup down and walked over to say, "Master, the gatekeeper just said that she saw Doctor Song come in from Songya Courtyard. A few moments later, she saw him come out again and head towards the front yard."

"I think something must have happened, so I went to ask the prince for help."

Chunshanyuan has a natural geographical advantage and is always the first to get news from nearby courtyards.

Xie Run only thought about it for a moment and then understood.

She smiled faintly, "It must be that Fang Yuaner finally knew that something happened to her son."

"To be honest, I was able to know this thanks to Concubine Lu."

"I just don't know who is behind this, actually reaching out to the Third Young Master?"

The most important thing is that Fang Yuaner, the mother, has no idea about it.

You know, premature babies need to be taken care of more carefully.

If you feel even a little bit of discomfort, you should go see the doctor and ask about the situation.

But according to the wet nurse, the Third Young Master had been having diarrhea for four or five days, but Fang Yuan'er didn't notice it at all.

This was definitely her negligence as a mother.

Dan Tao whispered, "Master, who do you think has this ability?"

Xie Run glanced at her and said softly, "I only suspect Concubine Wan, but I don't know how she did it."

"Fang Yuan'er must have taken a lot of precautions... I can't believe she was able to find a loophole like this."

As Dan Tao spoke, she couldn't help but ask about what happened today, "Master, I don't understand something about the cassava flour and Polygonum multiflorum today."

Xie Run raised his eyes to look at her: "What don't you understand?"

But I felt like laughing.

Not only did Dan Tao not understand, in fact, she herself didn't quite understand it either.

Dan Tao: "Concubine Wan and Concubine Fang are both crying out for injustice, as if they really have nothing to do with these two things."

"If it wasn't them, then who was the murderer who killed our Fifth Young Master?"

Xie Run smiled faintly and said, "What if they are all like this?"

Dan Tao was startled and whispered, "Master, aren't they too good at acting? I actually believed them."

"Not only the servants, but also the prince."

Xie Run said calmly, "They were all involved, but not in the way you think."

"I don't quite understand what you mean."

"The Polygonum multiflorum incident should not have been done by Fang Yuaner."

Dan Tao nodded: "I think so too. This matter is so coincidental, and with Qiulu attracting attention, it seems like I'm being framed."

Xie Rundao: "Polygonum multiflorum has nothing to do with Fang Yuaner, but she must have been involved in the cassava flour incident!"

Xie Run's tone was very affirmative.

There was some confusion in Dan Tao's eyes, "Master, do you have any evidence?"

Xie Run smiled and said, "No."

"But I was careful when I asked her to swear today. I only asked her if she would harm me and Taotao, and didn't directly mention the Polygonum multiflorum issue. She hesitated, which means that she must have been the mastermind behind one of the Polygonum multiflorum and cassava flour issues."

Dan Tao immediately reacted: "Master, what you mean is that Concubine Fang was the mastermind behind the cassava flour incident?"

"But didn't you say before that this was Concubine Wan's style of behavior? And now this matter has fallen on Ping An..."

No matter how you look at it, Concubine Fang is not involved?

"If it was Concubine Wan who did it, why would she blame Ping An instead of choosing someone else?"

After a pause, Dan Tao said softly, "In fact, I don't think Concubine Wan is that capable. She can't come up with two thousand taels of silver, nor does she have the means to reach out to several courtyards at the same time."

The income of concubines in the mansion is actually quite transparent.

Especially a concubine like Wan Linlang who has no favor and no children.

They usually live on their monthly salary.

If you eat and drink normally, the monthly allowance is almost enough. If you want to eat a little better, it will be a bit tight.

They would only receive some rewards during festivals, and because of their low status, the rewards they received were not much.

Wan Linlang had only been a concubine in the mansion for about a year, and had not received any major rewards, nor had she ever heard of bringing any generous dowry into the mansion.

Even if she worked as a concubine for another twenty years, she would not be able to save two thousand taels of silver!

And she has to meddle in the affairs of so many courtyards at the same time... She is a concubine with only a few servants around her. Could she send them all out to do harm?

It sounds a bit outrageous!

Xie Run's eyes were a little dull, "You and I think it's useless."

"If the evidence points to her then, it will be her doing. Just like the peace we have now."

She suddenly sat up straight and said softly, "When I saw Yuezhi's tragic death today, I was actually a little scared."

The scene before Yuezhi's death was actually bloody and hideous.

After Xie Run thought about it, his first reaction was that the person who could do such a vicious way to harm others could only be Wan Linlang.

But after I came back, I couldn't help but think about it carefully.

As Dan Tao said, there are many loopholes and many obvious problems.
