Seeing Shi Jinrou not talking in a daze, Xiao Lian continued:

"Miss, something happened in the mansion just now."

Shi Jinrou asked, "What's the matter?"

"Ru Mei came back and said that Aunt Hua was dead. I just heard about it in the kitchen. It should not be fake."

"Ah? Why did you die?" Shi Jinrou immediately thought of the scene where Aunt Hua's maid cried and shouted to look for Master Dong.

"It was said that he died of jumping into a well."

"Bounce or fall off?" Shi Jinrou didn't hear it clearly and immediately asked.

"It's a jump, and the eldest lady found out that she had done something shameful. She had no shame and died of jumping into the well."

Shi Jinrou suddenly remembered the incident of Dong Yi and Aunt Hua having an affair near the rockery in the inner house a few days ago. She secretly wondered: "Is it possible that her affair with Dong Yi was caught by the eldest wife? Or did she go for Dong Yi

What kind of "Pinghu Spring Dawn Picture" was arrested for stealing that?"

Shi Jinrou guessed in her heart and asked:

"Do you know what shameful things are?"

When Xiao Lian heard this question, she suddenly became squeamish and didn't say anything, her face flushed.

Shi Jinrou glanced at Xiao Lian strangely: "Can't you say it? Or... can't you say it?"

Xiao Lian said as if he had made a great determination: "Listen to Sister Rumei, "I'm the one, that one, that..."

Shi Jinrou knew it in her heart. Xiao Lian looked at Shi Jinrou with some anxiety and told the unmarried lady about the affair between a man and a woman. If she pursued it, she would not be able to escape the plan.

Shi Jinrou didn't care much about the fate of Aunt Hua. Whether she committed suicide or was killed, even if she could use this matter to increase the weight to threaten the eldest wife, she would not be able to find out in a day or two. She was about to leave.

Dong's family, there is no need to create any more troubles in this critical moment.

Shi Jinrou saw Xiao Lian hesitating, so she changed her mouth and asked:

"Did Rumei guess? Or did she know the whole story?"

Xiao Lian did not give a clear answer to Shi Jinrou's question, and she stammered and couldn't explain it clearly.

Shi Jinrou smiled and stopped asking Xiao Lian. She shook Xiao Lian's hand and said:

"When you go back to the house to have a meal, chat with Rumei, and figure out how she thinks about Aunt Hua. The most important thing is to find out whether she is afraid."

"Scared? What are you afraid of?" Xiao Lian didn't understand why.

Shi Jinrou did not directly answer Xiao Lian’s question, but asked:

"If Aunt Hua was killed, who would you guess?"

"Ah? Miss is saying that Aunt Hua didn't commit suicide?" Xiao Lian looked at Shi Jinrou in surprise.

"I'm just guessing randomly. The key is that you have to figure out how Rumei looks at it and how she thinks about Aunt Hua's death. Do you understand?"

Xiao Lian looked at Shi Jinrou in confusion. She couldn't understand why the lady suddenly cared about Rumei so much, but she nodded and responded:

"I understand. Miss, I'll clean up now and go to find Rumei. You can rest first. After the aunt bought the medicine, you still need to take medicine."

Seeing Xiao Lian packing up the food box, bowls and chopsticks and leaving the house, Shi Jinrou felt exhausted both physically and mentally. She put the pillow flat and lay down her eyes to rest.

This day is really a bit long!
