The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 233
Mother Han firmly grabbed Zhao Jing's dress amidst the rat poison all over the floor, crying with tears and snot in her nose: "Give me a hundred guts, and I won't dare to poison the old lady..."

Zhao Jing took a step back, but when she turned her head, she happened to see Mrs. Xu with a slightly dull expression. She took two steps forward and asked, "What did you say? Say it again!"

Mother Han froze, got up and kowtowed to Mrs. Xu: "Old lady, I'm telling the truth. The girl asked me to find these rat poisons. I really don't know what she wants these rat poisons for!"

At this time, Sun Yu'e reacted suddenly, stood up from the chair suddenly, hugged the old lady Xu's legs and knelt down and said: "Old ancestor, Mother Han is talking nonsense, how could the granddaughter poison the old ancestor you! Granddaughter is Your ancestor raised you up, and you only hope that your ancestor will live a long life."

Sun Yu'e also cried at this time, her body was trembling, and she looked very pitiful.Zhao Jing looked at her crying bitterly, and stood aside without saying a word, while Mrs. Xu looked embarrassed.

"Mr. Zhao, if you don't believe me, you can ask Jixiang. The elder girl gave her the things at that time. You can tell if you ask her. If the old servant wanted to give her something, why did he go to the Linglong Courtyard? It's the same to give it directly in the Songhe Hall. "Mother Han had already forgotten what she had just agreed with Sun Yu'e at this time. Sun Yu'e said that she could take care of her whole family, but if she pleaded guilty to this crime, she would have her entire family killed. She is too old to die. But the whole family is innocent.

When Mother Han mentioned her name, Jixiang also trembled. Zhao Jing saw that Sun Yu'e was still holding Mrs. Xu's thigh and refused to let go, so she winked and asked the two women to push Sun Yu'e away, and supported the old lady herself Sitting down, he said: "Old lady, you are the most lenient person, and you have always been kind-hearted. Now tell me yourself, who are the three people kneeling below who want to harm you?"

Mrs. Xu was a little dazed by Zhao Jing's question, and she only heard Zhao Jing continue: "One is the granddaughter you raised since childhood. Logically, you can't be better than her, much better than your own granddaughter, but She wants to poison you to death, you will never understand it; the other is your highly valued servant, and all matters in the Marquis Mansion are arranged by her. You are still respectful and respectful in front of you, and you have gained a lot of benefits. If you die, she will not benefit at all; there is another one, that is the big maid next to you. Even I can't understand why a maid would Poison the master to death? Besides, he is a master who treats her well."

After Zhao Jing finished speaking, everyone present had guessed who was the mastermind behind this scene, only the old lady still didn't understand the powerful relationship.After hearing this, she became more and more confused. She frowned and asked Zhao Jing, "What Mr. Zhao means is that none of the three of them will harm me. Then where did this bag of rat poison come from?"

Zhao Jing was almost laughed at by Mrs. Xu's words, and even Sun Yu'e, who was pushed to kneel on the ground, was relieved.Zhang's mother on the side couldn't bear to explain the pros and cons to the old lady in person, but Zhao Jing continued patiently: "So, according to my opinion, the three of them probably discussed it. They plan to poison the old lady to death together. In this way, the eldest lady is still the master of the Hou family. Although the old lady has gone, Mother Han and Jixiang can go to the eldest lady. Once the old lady leaves, Lord Hou will have to guard for three years. Xiao, I can't get in during this time, so naturally I can't manage affairs in the Hou's mansion, as the eldest girl of the Hou's mansion, I will definitely be able to take over the position of head of the house, Miss, do you think I am right?"

After Zhao Jing finished speaking, she turned her head to look at Sun Yu'e who was kneeling on the ground, but the thought in Sun Yu'e's mind at this moment was: So there are so many benefits to the death of the old lady!Why didn't I think of it at the time!How nice would it be if the old lady was dead now?

But after a while, when she realized it, Sun Yu'e finally recognized the present world.The old lady did not die, and her evil deeds were also reported.

Sun Yu'e struggled to unscrew the restraints of the women, and cried to the old lady Xu: "My ancestor, my granddaughter never thought of poisoning my ancestor, my ancestor should not listen to Mr. Zhao's one-sided words, she doesn't like my granddaughter, So frame up your granddaughter everywhere!"

After all, Sun Yu'e was only thirteen or fourteen years old, so she couldn't twist it better than those adult women who did rough work. She struggled on the ground two or three times and couldn't break free, her wrist was almost dislocated.

At this time, Mrs. Xu was sitting on the carved mahogany armchair behind her, but her eyes were dazed for a moment, she looked at her granddaughter who was kneeling on the ground, and asked helplessly, "Then let me ask you, what is this rat poison? Where did it come from?"

"Mother Han gave me the rat poison, but I really never thought of poisoning you, my ancestor. I just wanted to make you sick. My grandmother said, this rat poison can't kill people!" Sun Yu'e was anxious, I couldn't hold back the lies, and I didn't react for a while, so I told them all.
