The mistress died of overwork, and after rebirth, she was bad at raising her cubs

Before Shen Qinglan could come to her senses, she saw the little guy looking at her seriously with a very serious face.

Although Shen Qinglan didn't know what he was thinking, after thinking for a while, he still said:

"I like flowers, especially peach blossoms. What's wrong?"

"Yu'er knows! Mother, I think my elder brother's temper is not as good as mine, and he doesn't understand women! It's better for you to like me in the future!"

Huo Junyu changed the subject so quickly that Shen Qinglan almost didn't catch on. She asked with amusement:

"At such a young age, you still understand women?"

"Mother, don't underestimate me. I can do a lot! Just wait!"

Huo Junyu said this with a look of unwillingness to be outdone, then ran away in high spirits, looking very anxious.

Shuyu and Shuwen couldn't help laughing. Shuyu shook his head and said with a smile:

"The eldest son is too opinionated and stubborn, like a stubborn donkey. On the contrary, although the second son is a bit arrogant and heartless, he is also innocent and naive."

Shuwen glanced at Shuyu, nodded seriously and said, "Indeed, he is heartless, just like some people."

"Who are you talking about? I don't really know anyone who is similar to the Second Young Master."

Shuyu answered subconsciously and looked at Shuwen curiously.

But Shuwen hid the smile in his eyes, turned his head away, and said casually:

"you do not know."

"Oh……"

Shu Yu nodded subconsciously, but saw Ren Donglai, who had been silent but was trying to hold back his laughter.

Shuyu reacted immediately, and with a roar, he pounced on Shuwen with his fangs and claws bared:

"Okay! You scold me!"

Shuwen was agile and dodged with a quick move.

Shuyu missed everything and had no way to regain his strength. He fell to the ground with a cry of "ouch".

Seeing this, Shuwen sighed helplessly, and twisted the wrist holding the sword, placing the hilt across Shuyu's front, and lifted the man up. Only then did Shuyu hold the hilt and staggered to his feet.

Shuyu patted his chest in fear, and waited for Shuwen to say in a reproachful tone:

"You're still hiding!"

"I don't hide and wait for you to hit me?"

"Then I can't hit you!"

"That's because I hid."

"..."

Shuwen's self-righteous look made Shuyu so angry that she stamped her feet, then ran to Shen Qinglan and accused him:

"Miss! You read the book!"

"Miss, you saw it too." Shuwen held the sword and spoke.

Shen Qinglan looked at the two enemies and said with some amusement:

"Alright, alright, stop making trouble. Shuyu, there's something I need you to do."

"Miss's order!" Shu Yu became serious immediately when he heard that it was a serious matter.

"Take the sachets of trumpet creepers you found in Yu Ge's room last time to Xiang Xie Garden and dispose of them."

"Yes!" Although Shuyu didn't know why she had to run so far to deal with a sachet, since it was the young lady's order, she would definitely do it.

After agreeing, Shuyu raised his chin proudly towards Shuwen, then deliberately passed by Shuwen and pushed him away with his butt, saying:

"See? I am the young lady's right-hand man!"

Shuwen snorted and said disdainfully, "Childish."

Ren Donglai seemed to have realized something, and asked Shen Qinglan:

"The princess wants..."

Shen Qinglan did not answer, but smiled, picked up the teacup beside her, took a sip, and then said:

"I told you, Brother Yan is very smart. Some things are best left for him to figure out on his own."

Upon hearing this, Ren Donglai nodded in understanding, and his admiration for Princess Zhan grew even greater.

at the same time.

After Huo Junyan returned to his yard in a daze, he went to look at Xiao Shanzi's body again.

He really wanted to ask why Xiao Shanzi bought a poisonous snake behind his back to kill Shen Qinglan!

Huo Junyan really couldn’t figure it out!

Even if Xiao Shanzi wanted to help him, but... it was a life! It was his father's new wife! Why did he have to do this?

Besides, I never said that I wanted Shen Qinglan's life, so why would Xiaoshanzi take the initiative to make the decision?

There are so many doubts, worries and anger in my heart.

But when a person dies, it is like a light going out.

Xiaoshanzi is dead, and all these questions of his can only be buried with Xiaoshanzi's death.

Although Huo Junyan was somewhat annoyed at Xiao Shanzi's self-assertion, after all, he was the one who had been with him for so long, Huo Junyan could not bear it and still had Xiao Shanzi buried properly.

Just as he was ordering his servants to carry Xiaoshanzi's body out, he happened to meet Shuyu who was also walking quickly.

"Young Master." Shu Yu saw Huo Junyan, bowed reluctantly, and was about to leave.

But Huo Junyan saw what Shuyu was holding, and he couldn't help but frowned and called Shuyu:

"Wait, what are you holding in your hand?"

Shu Yu was stunned for a moment, looked at the things in his hand, and there was nothing he couldn't say, so he said immediately:

"Someone threw trumpet creeper flowers under the second young master's bed that day, which caused the second young master to be poisoned. This is the sachet containing the trumpet creeper flowers. It is useless, so the princess asked this servant to deal with it."

Huo Junyan's eyes moved, and he stretched out his hand and said to Shu Yu:

"Give it to me, I'll take care of it."

"Ah? But this..." Shuyu looked at Huo Junyan hesitantly.

Huo Junyan didn't say anything more. He just reached out and took the sachet from Shuyu's hand, and then said:

"It's just dealing with a sachet, is there anything I can't do?"

"Then, I'll trouble you, young master."

Shuyu's mouth twitched. After all, she did not argue with Huo Junyan. It was just dealing with a sachet. She thought the young lady would not say anything.

only……

This young master must be mentally ill. Why is he arguing with her about this?

Could it be that Xiaoshanzi's betrayal drove the eldest master crazy?

Huo Junyan held the sachet in his hand and watched Shuyu walk away. Then he took a deep breath and instructed the servants who were carrying Xiaoshanzi's body:

"Send the person to the other garden first, and then go get a coroner."

The servant was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't hear clearly, and looked at Huo Junyan with some surprise.

Huo Junyan took a deep breath and continued, "Please ask the coroner to perform an autopsy!"

If Huo Junyan previously thought that Xiao Shanzi's death was simply due to the wounds not being properly treated after being beaten with a stick, now that he saw the sachet that Shu Yu brought, this matter would probably be a different matter!

Huo Junyan has a very good memory, so good that he can almost remember everything he sees.

The stitches on the sachet in Shuyu's hand that contained trumpet creeper, which was used to kill Huo Junyu, were obviously from the same person as the sachet that Xiaoshanzi kept close to him and gave to the old man selling snakes!

Xiao Shanzi said that it was a gift from his sweetheart!

He once asked Xiaoshanzi who his sweetheart was, but Xiaoshanzi always avoided the question and never told him.

But now...

It is obvious that someone wants to kill Yu Ge'er and Shen Qinglan!

Together with these two sachets, everything proves that the person who wanted to kill Yu Ge'er and Shen Qinglan is Xiao Shanzi's sweetheart!

When Huo Junyan thought of this, his face turned ugly, because if this matter was really related to Xiaoshanzi's sweetheart, wouldn't it prove that there was a hidden story behind Xiaoshanzi's death?

After all, how could twenty strokes of the stick kill someone?
