As soon as Lin Zhaoyan left, Ma immediately grabbed Fu Shuang and asked, "How many people know about this?"

Fu Shuang said in a crying voice: "Mrs. Cousin saw it with his own eyes, and she fainted from anger! Sister Hongying, who was beside the old lady, Manhua, who was beside the fourth girl, and several maids brought by the cousin's wife, were all seen. However, Sister Hongying had locked them up and only ordered her to inform you and Mrs. Hou, saying that she would discuss a countermeasure carefully."

Ma was relieved. Fortunately, Hongying handled the matter properly and did not make a big deal. Fortunately, the guests left and did not throw their faces outside to the return of the legitimate daughter.

"I'll talk about my mother later. After all, Liu Wenxuan is a family member of the third wife. The most important thing is to report to my third aunt first, ask her to comfort her cousin's wife first, and ask her what to do. As for her grandmother's place, she should not tell her because the Sixth Princess is sad, so she won't be more anxious."

Ma frowned and said, "This matter is definitely not as simple as it seems. I know that Zi Su girl, it is definitely not the villain who is waiting to climb the dragon and attaches importance to the phoenix. There must be someone behind this. Mama Liu, hurry up and find Aunt San, tell her the original matter and let her rush to the backyard as soon as possible."

He said to Fu Shuang again: "You will take me over now, I want to ask what happened to Zi Su!"

Lin Zhaoyan returned to Xiaoxiang Pavilion. The room on the west side was already brightly lit. Unexpectedly, a light was also lit on Qinfang Pavilion.

She thought it was Lin Xingyan who came uninvited and hurried towards the gate of the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, it was Manshuang who rushed over.

"Girl! Are you okay?"

Listening to her crying voice, Lin Zhaoyan was surprised, "I'm fine, what can I do? But you, didn't I let you stay with my cousin? Why are you back? Where are Manhua? Have you seen her?"

Manshuang was confused by Lin Zhaoyan's series of questions. After a while, he came back to his senses and said anxiously: "I originally had the same care as Sister Hongying, who was guarding Master Cousin. But later a maid came over and said to me that you fell into the water. I was frightened and rushed back. What? Didn't you?"

"Of course not!" Lin Zhaoyan's eyebrows pounded. He knew that Manshuang was being plotted against, so he asked, "What does that maid look like?"

"I was too nervous at the time and didn't see clearly. I only knew that she looked very handsome and didn't look like she was working in the inner courtyard."

"What clothes does she wear? What are her characteristics?"

Manshuang shook her head, "It's so ordinary. She is wearing the most common blue-colored A-style in the mansion. She is a medium-sized person and a medium figure. I really can't remember what her characteristics are."

Lin Zhaoyan bit his lips tightly, his hands trembling.

Manshuang knew something was wrong at first glance and said in a fright, "Miss, is something wrong?"

"I don't know." Lin Zhaoyan clenched his fists and said softly: "My sister-in-law refused to tell me, but I know something bad must have happened."

Manshuang said anxiously: "What should we do? If they want to hide it, we can't find out!"

"Don't worry, I asked Manhua to go again later. She hasn't come back yet, so she must be with her cousin Wenxuan. My sister-in-law is not so cruel and vicious and will not silence her. When she comes back, we will ask her about the situation."

Manshuang nodded worriedly.

The master and servant entered the yard and waited in the main hall.

The lights and shadows of the candles in the house swayed, and the tears fell down. A thick layer of candle wax formed on the bronze carved candlestick.

The wind blows in from the door, causing the candlelight to jump and flicker, forming a light and dark shadow on the window paper.

Lin Zhaoyan's heart swayed with the candlelight.

☆★☆★☆★

The sky was lit up gray.

Manhua still hasn't come back.

Lin Zhaoyan sat down all night and his body was already numb, but no matter how he was, he did not feel strongly uneasy.

She couldn't sit still and waited for death. She was about to use the excuse of looking for Manhua to inquire about the situation, but news came from Lu Yutang that the latest chapter of the God-Selected Daughter in Another World.

It was said that the five girls had a quarrel and they couldn't get along.

Lin Zhaoyan hurried to Luyutang.

There were several maids guarding outside the yard, looking silent.

As soon as he saw her appear, he cried: "Miss Four, you are here! Miss Five is making a noise with her wife in the yard, and everything has been smashed! Go in and persuade her!"

"What happened? What about my father?" If it was just an argument, I would definitely go to Lin Chen to rescue him. How could I find her daughter, who has never been favored by Liu?

One of the maids wiped her tears and cried, "I came to report the news early this morning, Fu Shuang, who was beside the eldest young lady, came to report the news, saying that Sister Zisu fell into the pond and drowned last night! The fifth girl refused to believe it and clamored to see Sister Zisu. The third lady didn't allow her to go, and sent someone to move Sister Zisu's things out of the house. The fifth girl tried her best to stop her, and then she started a fuss! As for the master, the wife did not allow the servants to report."

Perilla is dead?!

Lin Zhaoyan's eyebrows hopped violently.

Last night, she smiled and helped her make up with Lin Ruoyan, and listened to her words to visit Liu Wenxuan with Manhua. How could she die?

So what about Manhua? Is something wrong?

She hurriedly grabbed the maid's hand and said anxiously: "But I heard that something happened to anyone?"

The maid shook her head, "I don't know, but there seemed to be something big in the outer yard last night. The lady returned to the yard very late and her face looked very bad."

Another maid said boldly: "I think it's related to Master Cousin. I heard that the eldest grandma sent someone to send Master Cousin home overnight last night. In fact, shouldn't it be that I should have stayed overnight?"

The other maids were silent and dared not say much.

There are countless things to do in the inner courtyard and the back of the house. If the head of the family wants to hide it, the servants can only pretend to be deaf and dumb.

The incident yesterday was handled very well by Ma. As long as Lin Ruoyan was willing to quietly accept the fact that Zi Su died, there would be no news about this incident.

But, Lin Ruoyan is such a proud, stubborn and loyal girl.

Zi Su has been following Lin Ruoyan since she was five years old. Although she is a master and servant, her relationship is probably better than that of their two legitimate sisters. Just like Manhua, Manshuang is the most important and closest "family" to her.

Now that Zi Su is dead, she still dies in an unknown way. She says she is a mistake and falls into the pool. Who would really believe it?

Zi Su's death clearly shows that there is a ghost.

Lin Zhaoyan's mind flashed through the scenes that happened last night, connecting all the relevant things.

Liu Wenxuan's drunkenness, Lu's obstruction, the chaos in the scene and the suspicious maid in blue...

Coupled with the result of the handling of this matter, she had already guessed it.

It must have been not what she thought last night that Lu was deliberately creating an opportunity to make Lin Ruoyan and Liu Wenxuan have an ambiguous relationship.

It was definitely even more exaggerated, so I had to deal with Perilla to seal its mouth.

Lin Zhaoyan clenched his hands tightly, and a chill rose in his heart.

She thought, if it weren't for her uneasy prediction last night and she was more careful, the one who had the accident last night would probably be Lin Ruoyan.
