"That's not necessarily the case." Qian Xi pondered for a moment: "Since Zhou Maoren has been detained in the capital, we still need to interrogate him. Even if we have a handle in our hands, it is good."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone was discouraged.

Qianxi helped Luo sit down and patiently persuaded: "The second lady has worked hard in the Qin family for many years, and it is expected that she will rarely be overthrown. But this time she passed the blame on the third aunt and brought the matter to this point.

, it is really not a wise move. The planning we have done these days is not all in vain."

"How do you say this?" Luo raised his eyebrows.

"If we hadn't been forced into a hurry, how could the second lady have made such a plan? As long as we have enough time, we can find any manager to take the responsibility, or be willing to take the blame, or be beaten to death with a stick, and we won't have any worries." Qianxi explained carefully.

She analyzed: "But the third aunt is different from those slaves. As long as Li Shilang is still here, our family can't make things too ugly. What's more, it is an old incident, and those involved are all concubines, and my grandmother can't do anything.

I will beat her hard in private, and even if I don’t want to see Third Aunt anymore, I won’t expose her publicly.”

"Yes, yes." Mother Gu also calmed down and turned to comfort Luo: "It is impossible that the third lady did what happened to our Aunt Han. The second lady's method of framing the blame can only work for a short time at most."

"Now that the old lady is very angry, the third lady must have been frightened by something unexpected. After a day or two to calm down, the servant will try to send a message to the third lady and ask her why she wants to talk to the first lady.

Why do you want to harm Aunt Han as your enemy? After hearing this, the third lady still doesn’t understand that she has taken the blame for someone else? Will she accept this unreasonable disaster? She must find a way to clarify it with the old lady."

"Besides, no one knows how far the situation in Beiyuan has reached now. Please go and find out. It's not too late for Madam to make plans."

"That's fine." Luo Shi finally nodded with relief.

Mother Gu went to arrange the arrangements, and Qianxi sat by the window, watching the autumn weather outside, and the scenery in the garden as if the world had changed. She held her chin in thought for a long time, and finally couldn't hide the smile on her lips.

"What's so funny?" Luo was surprised and scolded.

A gust of golden breeze brought a refreshing feeling. Qianxi looked out the window and squinted her eyes comfortably: "Mom, Xi'er has been thinking about it for a long time, and she always feels that the day when mother will take charge of the family is not far away."

"Tsk, you are in the mood to joke." Luo Shi said angrily: "Don't worry, Yan Xiuying is cunning, I also have the patience to deal with her."

Qian Xi looked lazy: "But if the rabbit digs the hole crookedly, it might turn into a grave."

"Let's make it clear. Don't pretend to be a ghost for me." Luo became interested.

Qian Xi turned around, with a bright color in her pupils: "Mother, let me give you a riddle."

"Once upon a time, there was a fairy who wanted to find a suitable bird as a mount to transform into a flying fairy. White cranes, wild geese, and wild ducks all came to the fairy to be chosen. In order to increase the chance of being selected, the wild goose wanted to drive away the wild ducks, so the two

It was pecking, biting, and chasing in the pond until it was covered in mud. What should the white crane do at this time?"

What should we do? How could Luo Shi be such a shrewd person that he didn’t understand Qian Xi’s metaphor. The old lady was chosen as the “fairy” of the family, so she was naturally the white crane that was dressed in innocence and admired itself with its wings! Could it be that this girl meant

yes……

Qian Xi smiled calmly and said: "It's an old matter. The second lady should have tried her best to calm it down, suppress it, and get over it. Instead, she bit the third aunt so hard that she couldn't even turn a blind eye."

"Mom, just think about it, what does my grandma look forward to most? Isn't it a harmonious family life? In the future, there will be a stable and capable daughter-in-law to take over the middle school, and the Qin family will continue to prosper! As for one or two things, which one is right and which is wrong, what is the truth, and who framed it

In fact, it doesn’t matter to grandma. It’s too late to cover up such scandals in the house, so you still expose them to the public, so that others can use them as an excuse?”

Her beautiful eyes flashed, and Luo's soul was filled with happiness: Yes! Now, the Second Madam and the Third Madam are just the geese and ducks pecking each other in the mud pond. They are already covered in filth, making it difficult for the old lady to see them. But he only has one

You need to keep yourself clean and stay away from the mud. The good and bad will be clear at a glance. Why bother to mix things up with them and talk about the truth that cannot be put on the table?

What the old lady needs most right now is that there is someone in her daughter-in-law who is upright and can share her worries. If she were to get involved and fight in such a dirty war, the old lady would really be disappointed!

After figuring out these key points, Luo's mind was at peace, and he just did not know anything. According to what Qian Xi said, he asked his eldest brother to come forward to help, pry open Zhou Maoren's mouth, write down his confession, and imprison him in a safe place.

.

It wasn't until the old lady asked how the investigation of Aunt Han's matter was going and whether Zhou Maoren had spit out anything, that Luo told the truth and gave the confession to the old lady.

As for the confession, of course, there was only one confession about how Aunt Han was murdered. That is, the Yan family ordered Sun He'er to sow discord between Han Miaorong and the Luo family, and used Bing Meier to conceive Han Miaorong's child, and Zhou Maoren was an accomplice.

As for the fact that Mr. Yan had used the same method to murder his concubines, and the other two things Mr. Li had done, there was no mention in the confession.

Mrs. Dou looked at it and neither expressed surprise nor said she was going to deal with Mrs. Yan. She just took the confession and told Mrs. Luo to watch Aunt Han and not let her act nonsense again.

Everything went as Qian Xi guessed, Luo became more and more calm, acted in a calm and steady manner, and acted steadily and thoughtfully.

A few days later, when it was already late in the evening and everything was quiet, Mrs. Dou asked Mama Guan to personally invite Luo for a night talk.

Luo Shi's heart moved, and she went happily. In the dark inner room, Mrs. Dou sat huddled in her arms, saying that her eyes hurt, and took a few accounts and asked Luo Shi to read them and tell them to her.

This was Luo's strong point. In less than half an hour, Luo carefully picked out the important income, expenditures and issues in the account, and reported them to Mrs. Dou one by one. Mrs. Dou closed her eyes and listened to each word.

He shook his head and said nothing after listening.

Guan's mother brought in a box at some point. It was as heavy as iron and ebony, and it was full of keys, brands, and deeds. Old Mrs. Dou put the few account books in it and handed them to Luo Shi.

Luo knew what this account book was. For several years in the Yan family, the old lady only gave her the authority to manage the inner house, and kept the rest. Today, the entire box was handed over to her, which meant that the entire Qin Mansion

Pushed in front of her.

Looking at the gray and old face of the old man under the lamp, Luo suddenly felt sour in her heart. She pushed her away and squatted deeply: "What does mother mean? What kind of errands do you want to run? What kind of accounts are you settling? Mother just summons my daughter-in-law."

My daughter-in-law is young and cannot take on this important responsibility without her mother’s guidance!”

The words were simple and unpretentious, without any pretense.
