Shi Jinrou thought of this, so she stared at Zhang's mother and asked, "Wuhan, when did you quit your job? Why did my mother ask you to quit your job?"

"It was the day before the second aunt passed away. The second aunt was kind-hearted and said that she was afraid that she would leave soon, so the eldest lady would not be able to tolerate me, so she might as well quit myself. I thought about this as well. I have been in the Dong Mansion for more than ten years, and I knew the situation of the second aunt, so I agreed. But I couldn't worry about the second aunt and cousin, so although I quit my job, I didn't leave that day. I originally wanted to accompany my cousin in the mansion. It was just..."

"Just what?" Shi Jinrou asked.

Although she knew there was no one else in the house, Zhang's mother still looked back subconsciously and said, "It was just that on the day my second aunt passed away, the eldest wife asked me to leave the house."

"Why?"

"Not why, the eldest lady said I had quit my job, and said she wanted to deal with the funeral of my second aunt. She had no time to control people like me, so she let me go."

Shi Jinrou was thinking a lot and thought to herself: Mrs. Zhang signed a living contract, not a lowly slave in the mansion. The eldest lady dared not take any action, so she rushed Mrs. Zhang out of the mansion.

Xiaoyun, Yueluo, Zhang's mother... The eldest lady is so anxious to deal with the people around her mother, there must be some ulterior motives. But now she and her father are about to leave the Dong family, and the most urgent thing is the 15,000 taels of silver. There is no time to allow her to investigate the eldest lady's secret. Alas, I can only talk about it later. If possible, I must find Dr. Du, maybe he can reveal the real reason for his mother Dong Yun's death.

Seeing Shi Jinrou remained silent, Zhang's mother was worried that Shi Jinrou would get angry, so she said with a little sadness and a little uneasy: "Miss cousin, it's all...I'm not good. Your mother just passed away and I'm leaving again. You must...it's all...I'm not good."

Shi Jinrou smiled sweetly, grabbed Zhang's mother's hand, and comforted her: "Wuhan, you have thought too much. Xiaorou thanked her for her years of care, how could she blame her?"

Although Shi Jinrou still wanted Zhang's mother to talk more about her mother Dong Yun, her headaches kept interrupting her thinking, and she didn't know what to ask for for a moment.

Zhang's mother's hand was held by Shi Jinrou, and she couldn't help but say in panic: "Miss Cousin is having a fever? Look at me, I'm just nagging, and delaying Miss Cousin's rest. It's so damn! You should rest quickly, if nothing else, I'll take it off."

Shi Jinrou quickly stopped him and said, "It's almost noon, so let's leave after dinner. By the way, wet nurse, where are you living now?"

Mother Zhang smiled and said, "No, Miss Cousin should take care of her illness. Besides, I have quit my job and someone in this mansion looked at me annoyed. I will tell your maid the address later. In the future, if Miss Cousin has something to do, she can ask the maid to find me."

After hearing this, Shi Jinrou did not force her. She lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed and see her off. Zhang's mother hurriedly stopped her and helped Shi Jinrou lie on the bed. She did not forget to cover Shi Jinrou with concern.

Shi Jinrou had no choice but to call Xiao Lian in and see off her mother Zhang on her behalf. Xiao Lian agreed and accompanied Zhang's mother out.

Although Zhang's mother left, Shi Jinrou couldn't calm down for a long time. After chatting with Zhang's mother for nearly half a morning, he brought Shi Jinrou a series of shocks and doubts: When did her mother Dong Yun die? Why did her great-grandparents be killed? Why did she besieged her grandmother? She was the daughter of the official family, and why did she betrothed to a merchant family? The prescription left by her mother, Doctor Du, and Zhang's mother quit her job...
