Chapter 92 My heart beats faster when I meet someone I like

He Zhiran's two dowry maids lived in the same room. Qiaoyu was on duty today, and Qiaoxin had already gone to bed.

The sound of opening the door woke Qiao Xin. She thought it was Qiaoyu who had come back, and asked vaguely: "Qiaoyu, why are you back?"

"It's me." He Zhiran said to clear up her doubts.

Qiao Xin sat up and quickly put on his shoes and got off the ground.

"Miss, do you have anything to tell me?"

He Zhiran didn't want to waste time, so he directly placed the two deeds of betrayal on the table.

"You can take the deed of betrayal and leave the Duke's Mansion overnight. From now on, you are free."

The two of them couldn't figure out what the eldest lady was causing.

"Miss, if Qiao Xin doesn't do well, you can just punish her."

"Yes, Miss, Qiaoyu also wants to serve you for the rest of her life."

He Zhiran knew that these two maids were loyal to him.

She said helplessly: "The Duke of Guo just came back and said that he had angered the Emperor. If nothing else happens, the Emperor will punish the Duke of Guo.

At that time, we will not be able to protect ourselves, so how can we care about your life and death?

Rather than you being sold off again by the government, it is better for me to let you go free now."

After saying this, He Zhiran took out forty taels of silver through the cover of his sleeves and gave each of them twenty taels.

The two little girls didn't expect that this was the reason why the eldest lady let them go, and for a while they couldn't accept this fact.

After all, their thoughts of serving the eldest lady for the rest of their lives have been deeply ingrained.

"Miss, your luck will not go away."

"Qiaoyu won't leave either."

If it were in the past, He Zhiran would choose to explain to them bit by bit. However, at the moment, she does not have so much energy and time to do this.

"There is no room for your objection to this matter. Pack your packages now. I will send someone to take you out of the house in a quarter of an hour."

"Miss..."

Seeing that Qiaoyu wanted to say something else, He Zhiran raised his hand to stop her: "Okay, no more words."

She left the two maids free here, and Mo Jiuye was not idle either.

After He Zhiran left, he called over several capable young men who often served him, and set them free in the same way.

As for more servants in the Duke's palace, it is up to the mother and sisters-in-law to decide.

After sending all the servants who had returned the deeds of sale away, it was already dawn.

He Zhiran glanced at the wall clock in the space and saw that it was already past five o'clock in the morning.

The kitchen of the Duke's Mansion was emptied out by He Zhiran. Later, because she wanted to move the supplies from the treasury, she piled all the kitchen utensils that took up space in the wing room.

Fortunately, Mrs. Mo has a small kitchen in her yard.

Even if he really had to be exiled, he had to eat before leaving. Therefore, Mrs. Mo directly ordered people to cook porridge in her small kitchen.

By this time, the porridge had been cooked, and an older woman came to the wedding room to invite people over for breakfast.

As for the fact that He Zhiran and Mo Jiuye had to offer tea to their mother-in-law on the first day of their wedding, they were completely ignored.

He Zhiran looked at Mo Jiuye, who was still lying on the bed: "Are you going to mother's place for breakfast?"

Mo Jiuye shook his head: "I won't go and continue to pretend to be unconscious."

He Zhiran knew in his heart that Mo Jiuye's move was correct.

Since the emperor chose to let him enter the palace to make things difficult last night, wasn't it just to make him seriously injured and die on the way to exile?

If he went out to show off to others in a lively manner, there is no guarantee that the emperor would come up with other ways to deal with the Mo family after he found out about it.

Rather than being unprepared for being assassinated, it is better to pretend to be unconscious and avoid the disaster.

"I'll go take a look first and bring you some food."

After He Zhiran finished speaking, he followed the old woman to the courtyard where Mrs. Mo lived.

The Mo family knew the rules very well, and several sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law had already arrived at the old lady's yard first.

A group of women were all sitting neatly at the dining table in the living room. As long as Mrs. Mo didn't say anything, no one would move their chopsticks first.

Mrs. Mo was thinking that after Mo Jiuye and He Zhiran arrived, everyone would start together.

After all, today is also the first day of my son's wedding, so it must be more formal.

Seeing that He Zhiran was the only one coming over, Mo Hanyue, who didn't know that the Mo family was about to be in disaster, greeted him warmly.

She held He Zhiran's arm with a bright smile: "Sister-in-law Ninth, why didn't my Ninth Brother come with you?"

Looking at Mo Hanyue's condition, she didn't know what was going on at home.

He Zhiran simply continued to conceal it: "Your ninth brother came back late from the palace last night and just fell asleep now."

This explanation left no doubt for Mo Hanyue.

"Brother Ninth has worked hard, let him sleep a little longer. Sister-in-law Ninth, come quickly, let's have breakfast."

Mrs. Mo and the other sisters-in-law knew what was going on, but did not ask any questions like Mo Hanyue did.

It's just that everyone's faces don't look good.

Mrs. Mo saw He Zhiran coming to the table and personally greeted her to sit down.

"Heshi, you also know the situation at home. You have no preparations for the first day of your wedding. We simple people will make do with it first."

"Mother, this is already good."

As he spoke, He Zhiran sat down next to Mo Hanyue.

Glancing at the rice porridge in front of her, she immediately frowned.

"Mother, sisters-in-law, who prepared this porridge?"

Mrs. Mo picked up the bowl and was about to take a sip of rice porridge when she heard He Zhiran asking and put it down again.

"My mother-in-law in the yard prepared it. What's wrong?"

"Mother, sisters-in-law, this porridge is poisonous."

Hearing this, the sisters-in-law and Mo Hanyue also hurriedly put down the porridge bowls in their hands, and all their eyes fell on He Zhiran.

"Heshi, you said the porridge is poisonous?" Mrs. Mo's eyes were full of disbelief.

He Zhiran affirmed: "Mother, if I read it correctly, this is a colorless and odorless poison. As long as a person takes it, there is no possibility of survival."

As soon as she finished speaking, the old woman ran in in a panic and reported: "Old madam, I don't know what happened to Mrs. Chen and Cui Ya. After taking a sip of water, they suddenly fell to the ground and foamed at the mouth...

…”

"What did you say?" Mrs. Mo quickly stood up and walked out with small steps.

"Where are they two?"

"When I go back to the old lady, they are all in the wing!"

Several sisters-in-law and He Zhiran followed Mrs. Mo to the penthouse.

Sure enough, the two people Mrs. Chen mentioned were lying on the ground, foaming at the mouth, twitching all over, their eyelids rolled up, and they looked like they were about to die.

After Mrs. Mo checked, she turned around and came out, her eyes falling on He Zhiran.

"Sure enough, someone poisoned me."
