The Legitimate Daughter Returns: The Real Daughter is Reborn Chapter 103

Chapter 103 No poisoning

Wen Yiyue is now Lu Hong's nominal cousin, so it's not wrong for Su Changqing to call her cousin.

From the perspective of the uninitiated, Su Changqing is very concerned about this uncle's cousin, and the words he uses appear to be close to her.

 But for those who know about it, the sound of cousin really gives people goosebumps.

The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly. She couldn't deny her son face in front of so many people, so she could only say: "Then go and catch everyone who has touched the cakes, and I will ask them one by one!"

"yes."

Mama Zhao agreed and quickly ordered her servants to bring the person over.

Soon, all the servants in Wenyi Yue's courtyard were brought over.

There were three people in total, kneeling on the ground, trembling, not knowing what had happened.

“Did you make this pastry?”

 Mother Zhao asked aloud.

 A few of you looked at me, I looked at you, lowered your head and replied: "Slave/Slave is only responsible for the subordinates."

 “Speak one by one.”

 “The slaves help to dispose of the ingredients.”

 A maid arrives.

 “The slave is responsible for lighting the fire.”

 A boy has arrived.

 “The slaves shape the cakes.”

 The last nanny arrived.

Mama Zhao asked again: "Besides the three of you, who else is there?"

"Mrs. Wen and Miss Yuqing did the rest. The slaves did not interfere."

Mammy returned quickly.

Su Changying made up an identity for Wen Yiyue, saying that her husband passed away and the mother and son were kicked out by her husband's family, so they had no choice but to come to Lu Hong.

Therefore, when it comes to titles, people in the house are asked to call them madam, miss, etc. to show respect.

 “Did you put poison in the cake?”

Su Changqing asked in a deep voice when he saw the old lady's expression showing some impatience.

As soon as these words came out, the three of them all turned pale.

　　"The Marquis knows it well, how dare the slaves put poison in the cakes."

Just as he was talking, a woman came in from outside the house and said to the old lady: "Old lady, we have sent people to search, but the poison that Doctor Zhang mentioned was not found. I just found this from Miss Yuqing's room."

 The mother-in-law stepped forward and handed over a string of agate bracelets.

When Aunt Zhao saw the bracelet, she said, "It seems that you, Madam, gave this bracelet to the eldest lady before. The eldest lady likes it very much."

 Could it be that Miss Yuqing poisoned the eldest lady in order to steal this bracelet?

The people present had vague suspicions.

 “What's going on with this bracelet?”

 The old lady took the bracelet and spoke slowly.

Su Yuqing caught a glimpse of the bracelet and said in a panic: "Old madam, don't get me wrong. Sister Wan'er gave it to me. She said she thought I was destined to be with her, so she gave me this bracelet. She also said I was older than her and asked me to Call her sister, and Yuqing will never dare to steal anything!"

“The eldest lady likes this bracelet very much, why would she give it away for no reason?”

Mama Zhao was a little confused.

 She spoke in a low voice, but everyone present heard her clearly.

 Although no poison was found, it does not mean that no one poisoned it.

 Coupled with the discovery of this bracelet, suspicion seems to have fallen on Su Yuqing again.

“Can anyone prove that this was sent to you by Wan'er?”

 The old lady asked.

These words made Su Yuqing's face stiffen. She and Su Waner were in the room at that time, and there was no one else, not even the maid.

 How can she find someone to prove it?

“Old madam, Mr. Hou, there were only sister Wan'er and Yuqing at that time. Yuqing didn't dare to lie to you.”

Su Yuqing cried in grievance, looking at Su Changqing with tears in her eyes.

How could Su Changqing bear it when his daughter begged like this? But what's more, the child lying in the room was not his child at all. It was clear at a glance which one was more important.

“Mother, my son thinks what Yuqing said is true. Wan'er has always been kind, so it's not a big deal to give Yuqing a bracelet.”

As soon as the words fell, I heard, "Grandma..."

Su Wan'er's weak voice came from the back room. Upon hearing this, the old lady turned around and looked.

 Seeing Su Waner wrapped in a coat, she was helped out by Yuyao.

 “Wan'er, how do you feel?”

“Grandma, Wan'er is much better, I worry you.”

Su Waner smiled, looking a bit like a sickly beauty.

 It also made the old lady feel more and more distressed.

“Sister Wan'er, please explain to everyone that you really gave me this bracelet!”

Su Yuqing's eyes lit up when she saw Su Waner coming out, and she quickly shouted.

　　The bracelet was clearly given to her by Su Waner herself, how could it be stolen by her!

 “Bracelet?” Su Waner seemed to have not heard clearly, with confusion on her face.

Mama Zhao handed the bracelet to Su Waner, "Miss, this is this agate bracelet."

“Isn't this given to me by my grandmother? Why is it in your hands, Aunt Zhao?”

Su Waner looked confused.

Su Yuqing became anxious when she heard this: "Sister Wan'er, have you forgotten? I gave you cakes this morning. You said you were destined to me, so you gave me this bracelet!"

“Wan'er, is what she said true?”

 The old lady also asked.

Su Wan'er frowned, seeming to have some difficulty recalling, "Grandma, Wan'er is a little confused. It seems that there is such a thing, but I seemed to just want to lend it to Miss Yuqing to take with her..."

“Sister Wan'er, you clearly said you would give it to me as a gift!”

Su Yuqing never expected that Su Waner would explain it like this. She clearly remembered that Su Waner said she wanted to give it to her!

 “Shut up! You don't have the right to speak now!”

 The old lady glared at her angrily and continued to look at Su Wan'er.

Wen Yiyue pulled Su Yuqing's sleeve and shook her head to signal her to calm down.

 The current situation makes it difficult to talk too much.

“Later, Miss Yuqing took her and left. I wanted someone to chase me, but I fainted after following them.”

Su Wan'er said while thinking about it, her expression became a little pale.

Like being in great pain.

Yuyao quickly continued: "Old madam, the eldest lady did ask the slave to chase Miss Yuqing, but she fainted before she could finish her words."

“Grandma, what's wrong with me?” Su Waner held her head, “Why did I faint suddenly?”

“Miss, please sit down quickly.”

Yuyao supported Su Waner and sat down.

The old lady looked at Su Waner, her eyes full of pity: "Wan'er, someone has poisoned this pastry, and you have been poisoned."

 “Poisoned? What's going on?”

Su Waner looked at the cake, and then looked at Su Yuqing in disbelief.

"This pastry was brought by Miss Yuqing. Did you poison me?"

"I didn't poison." Su Yuqing's explanation was very pale, but soon her eyes lit up, "Sister Wan'er, have you forgotten? I also ate this pastry!"

As she said that, she seemed to have found a way out, and rushed to the pastry. As expected, in addition to the piece Su Waner had eaten, there was another piece of pastry that had been broken open, and half of it was gone.

 “Look!”

Su Yuqing raised the pastry with a happy expression on her face.

Su Waner's eyes darkened a bit. Why did Su Yuqing think of her at this time?

She coughed a few times to attract everyone's attention: "Yes, Miss Yuqing did eat cakes with me. It's just that after Miss Yuqing left, I ate some more and fainted."
