The number one sweet wife: Young marshal, hold on!

Chapter 46 The Lu family's business is not clean...

Yun Xi nodded, frowned and said:

"My status is inconvenient, and the Lu family has a lot of talk. If you go to the places where servants gather, you will definitely get some unexpected news."

As he spoke, he pointed to the bird's nest on the table.

"And drink it by the way."

Tang Youyou was a little surprised, and wanted to push the bird's nest back.

"Miss, what are you doing... This is for you to cook..."

Yun Xi poked her head and smiled coquettishly.

"What, do you already like this identity?"

Said, holding her hand.The originally light white and delicate hands are now a little rough to the touch... Yun Xi feels a little distressed.

"We are good sisters, and we should have the same blessings and share the same difficulties. Now you have compromised too much, I..."

Tang Youyou's cold heart gradually warmed up, and she reached out to cover Yun Xi's lips.The eyes are a little moist.

"Needless to say, I understand."

She was afraid that if she listened to it any longer, her tears would burst into tears... She was already helpless in this world, and she lived on hatred.I don't even dare to expect extravagantly about emotions. It was this woman who gave her all the warmth and light for the rest of her life...

……

In the past few days, Tang Youyou has tried her best to find out about the deeds of Lu Peishun, the head of the Lu family. Whether it's the daily gossip of the servants, or the gossip of the guys in the shops outside, she has listened to it all over the place.After a long time, those people also got to know her well, and they would tease her about everything.

Just after lunch that day, the servants in the kitchen were not busy.Gathering together, the parents and the west have a short chat.Tang Youyou calmly brought the bowls and chopsticks from the yard, and stepped forward cheerfully.

"Hey~ It's so lively today, Mrs. Li, whose little daughter-in-law has returned to her mother's house?"

When everyone saw that it was Tang Youyou, they were also a little happy.This little girl is well-behaved and doesn't take on Joe, besides, she is a popular person next to the eldest lady. Who is this eldest lady?That's the person the old lady is covering... These three aunts and six women still like Tang Youyou very much after getting to know each other these days.

The middle-aged woman known as Mrs. Li moved aside to make room for Tang Youyou.Only then did he speak with a gossipy face.

"You don't know yet, do you? It's Li Mao, the gatekeeper in the mansion. I heard that the previous one went to gamble again, and his wife and children returned to her mother's house in a fit of anger. But he was very worried..."

Tang Youyou couldn't help smiling, and they told the gossip about the people in the house again.I don't know who mentioned the aunts and wives in the mansion, Tang Youyou asked calmly.

"Hey, tell me. Why is there no Fifth Aunt in this mansion..."

Another little maid who came not long ago quickly followed suit.

"Yes, yes, why is there no Fifth Aunt?"

This is a slightly older woman with a mysterious smile on her face, quite proudly said:
"Who said that there is no fifth concubine... You just came here and don't know. There was a fifth concubine in this mansion. But she died not long after entering the door."

After finishing speaking, the woman curled her lips, as if feeling a little disgusted.

The little maid exclaimed: "Dead? Why did she die when she was fine?"

After speaking, it seemed that he realized that the voice was too loud, so he quickly covered his mouth, but still looked at the woman with a look of surprise.

The mother-in-law was amused by her startled appearance, and she no longer kept her secrets, she approached the crowd and said in a low voice:
"Isn't it just dead? I heard...he hanged himself in the house. However, some people say that the lady may have been poisoned and died of illness. And..."

The woman looked around, and after making sure that there was no one around, she continued to speak.

"I heard that the fifth aunt actually had a man, and because she was beautiful, she was taken by the master. So she was snatched back, and she committed suicide because she couldn't bear the humiliation..."

There was a sound of gasping all around, and the mother-in-law smiled complacently when she got the desired result, and then shut up.

Tang Youyou also looked at the woman pretending to be surprised, but there was resentment in her heart.Compared with what she found out in the past few days, Lu Peishun did a lot of bad things... Why didn't a thunderbolt strike him to death, Tang Youyou couldn't help but look up at the sky, feeling that God is really Do not open your eyes.

In the evening, Tang Youyou told Yun Xi the results of today's snooping as usual, and the two analyzed the progress of the matter together.

……

In addition to the fifth aunt who was in the mansion today, Tang Youyou also learned that there seemed to be many unclean places in the Lu family's business...

"This matter is definitely tricky, but unfortunately we don't have evidence, otherwise it might be of great use in the future..."

Yun Xi also felt a little pity, guessing is not enough, there must be evidence.

Tang Youyou rolled her eyes, and hesitated to speak.

"How about...I'll go to his study and look for it. Since it's a business matter, I can definitely find clues in the study."

Yun Xi lowered her eyes and thought for a while, then shook her head in disapproval.

"No, it's too risky. It might scare the snake away. Lu Peishun is already suspicious and sensitive. If he notices it, our future plans will be even more difficult to carry out... To deal with Lu Peishun, it's better for us to take our time .”

Tang Youyou nodded, with his eyes half downcast, the shadow of his eyelashes cast on his face, flickering in the dim room, making it hard to see clearly.

The two discussed again, and Yun Xi asked her to go back to rest.

Tang Youyou lay on the bed tossing and turning, feeling a little irritable.When she had counted 150 sheep, she couldn't hold back her eagerness. She turned over and sat up, took out the night clothes from the cabinet, put them on, and rushed out of the window...

In the stillness of the night, everyone in Lu's mansion had already rested, and the mansion was in darkness.Borrowing the moonlight, one could vaguely see a petite and nimble figure running across the wall in the dark night, and finally stopped at the most hidden place in the entire Lu Mansion - the study of Patriarch Lu.

Tang Youyou stopped at the door of the study and looked around carefully.The door was locked, and Tang Youyou took out a silver needle from his arms and fiddled with the lock.Then there was a "click", Tang Youyou smiled, took off the lock and pushed the door in...

The inside of the study was very dark, and the scene inside could only be vaguely seen by the faint moonlight.Taking out the small flashlight that he brought with him, Tang Youyou rummaged through it...

After searching all the places on the desk, he didn't find any books or anything like that. Finally, Tang Youyou focused his gaze on a small locked drawer.Narrowing his eyes, he took out the silver needle and fiddled with it for a long time.However, she found that the lock seemed to be much stronger, but when she was concentrating on the lock, a figure suddenly broke into the study, and then there was a stern sound.

"Who? Come out!"
