Tragic death and rebirth, the daughter of a general poisoned the government and the country

It is far less convenient to make medicine in the Lin Mansion than in the other courtyard. Fortunately, Lin Yushu pretended to be sick these few days and asked Chuntao to move the medicine jars to the inner room to cook the medicine. The messy smell of medicine in the house covered up the smell of Lin Yushu making medicine.

Chun Tao stood by the stove and fanned the fire, watching Lin Yushu recover from her illness, and muttered happily, "The maids and servants in the yard are stupid and lazy. Even Mrs. Zhou and Fuling are useless. Although moving the medicine into the house to boil it saves them the trouble, it is still convenient for us."

Lin Yushu pinched her scallion-like fingers gently. She had been "sick" for seven days, and it was time to "recover". During these days, while "recuperating", Lin Yushu refined a lot of poisons, including medicine that could suppress the poison of the black-clothed masked assassin.

The man in black must have known about her return to Beijing. Before he comes to her, Lin Yushu needs to be prepared!

During this period, Cuizhu spent all the little money that Lin Yushu had on bribing servants to get information.

Cuizhu was a house-born child. Her parents lived in a separate courtyard and her two brothers worked as errand boys in the Lin residence. In addition, Cuizhu had a cheerful personality and looked like a cute glutinous rice dumpling, so she quickly gained a foothold among the servants in the Lin residence, making it very convenient for her to get information.

Lin Yushu asked Cuiguo to find out any news she could find out. Perhaps a piece of news that should not be told to outsiders could bring Lin Yushu closer to the truth about her mother's death.

The more information she found out, the more money she spent. Lin Yushu was truly a pauper now. If she wanted to get money, she had to find a way to leave the house first.

Thinking of a piece of news she had recently obtained, Lin Yushu suddenly had an idea.

Half an hour later, Lin Yushu held Chuntao's hand and came to Ci'an Hospital like a weak willow.

"Are you feeling better?"

The old lady sat in the rocking chair with her eyes slightly closed, as if she didn't want to look at Lin Yushu's face.

"I'm fine now. Thank you grandma for your concern."

Lin Yushu stood aside politely, with an expression as if she wanted to say something but hesitated. It was hard for the old lady not to notice it.

"What else?"

"Grandma, I haven't been back to the capital for many years. I want to go to the Duke of Qing's mansion to visit my grandmother..."

Lin Yushu spoke hesitantly, as if she was afraid of displeasing the old lady.

The old lady looked at this familiar yet hateful face, which showed a cautiousness she had never seen before, and felt extremely happy!

Lin Yushu's biological mother, Ye Yuanshuang, is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Qing. The Duke of Qing's grandfather was the prince's tutor of the previous emperor. Unfortunately, the prince died of illness that year. After the current emperor ascended the throne, the Duke of Qing's Mansion no longer had its former glory.

However, the old Duke of Qing was a great scholar respected by scholars all over the world and was well-known, so Lin Mingyue and Ye Yuanshuang were considered a perfect couple that everyone in the capital envied.

Unfortunately, after the death of the old master of the Duke of Qing, the two legitimate sons of the family entered the court one after another, but neither of them held a high position. Moreover, the old lady of the Duke of Qing, Lin Yushu's grandmother, was born into the wealthy Ji family in Jiangnan. Her merchant background made her always criticized by the officials and aristocratic families in the capital.

Therefore, after Ye Yuanshuang passed away and Lin Mingyue was ordered to take his son Lin Ling to garrison at the northern border, the old lady dared to disregard the face of the Duke Qing's Mansion and directly sent Lin Yushu to the villa and ignored her.

When Ye Yuanshuang was young, she was a famous lady from a prominent family in the capital for her beauty and talent. She was highly sought after by young men all over the capital. She was always cold and indifferent, and never tried to please her mother-in-law, the old lady.

What the old lady hated most was Ye Yuanshuang's aloof appearance!

The old lady looked at Lin Yushu, and it was as if she saw the self-respecting Ye Yuanshuang of the past. That noble vixen finally bowed her head and showed weakness to her!

As a result, he looked down on Lin Yushu even more. She only had her mother's beauty, but not any pride. Such a little girl was destined to be easily controlled by her.

"I was just about to send someone to tell you to deliver a letter to the Duke of Qing's mansion when you recover. Since you have recovered, I will send someone to deliver the letter. You can go there tomorrow morning."

"Granddaughter and grandmother actually think alike. Thank you very much, grandmother."

After Lin Yushu left, Nanny Li offered her a cup of hot tea and asked in confusion, "Why did the old lady let her leave the house?"

The old lady's previous idea was to trap Lin Yushu in the mansion until her marriage was finalized.

"However, what kind of trouble can a stupid girl like a blockhead cause? Besides, even the old lady of the Duke of Qing cannot interfere in Lin Yushu's marriage!"

What the old lady didn't say was that when Lin Yushu returned home, many gossipers saw her returning home outside the gate, so the rumors that the Lin family treated her harshly have not subsided until now.

If Lin Yushu were to dress up and go out of the house, everyone would know that she is now a young lady wearing gold and silver. The hungry and cold common people would no longer have any sympathy for her, and the rumors would naturally die down.

Moreover, two days ago, Feng, the wife of Cao Zhishui, the censor, sent a letter inviting Lin Yushu to visit her house.

Thinking of Cao Zhishui's report to Lin Minglang during the court session, the old lady felt so angry that her teeth itched. Unfortunately, His Majesty valued Cao Zhishui, and the Cao family should not be easily provoked.

Humph, the old lady had already found out that the woman Lin Yushu had accidentally saved was actually Madam Cao. No wonder Cao Zhishui, the mad dog, attacked his own son and stood up for Lin Yushu as soon as he took office.

I think Mrs. Cao's move is to see whether Lin Yushu is living well in the Lin Mansion. Only by letting Lin Yushu come forward herself can Mrs. Cao's suspicion be dispelled.

"Go, give Shu a couple of sets of clothes and some jewelry."

Nanny Li responded and left.

In the Bixiao Courtyard, Lin Yushu frowned slightly as she looked at the golden jewelry and gold-woven dresses in front of her. If she wore all these jewelry and dresses, she would be like a walking gold ingot.

The wives and daughters of officials would certainly sneer at this nouveau riche look.

I think the old lady had it sent to her specially, firstly, to show it to the common people outside to quell the rumors, and secondly, to make Lin Yushu look ridiculous in the capital, so that all the officials and nobles in the capital would think that Lin Yushu was a country bumpkin who only knew how to wear gold and silver.

Lin Yushu sneered in her heart. The old lady's move was indeed extraordinary. "Chun Tao, you are still the same."

"But...Miss, if you don't wear the old lady's reward, I'm afraid people will frame you for being disrespectful to the old lady, and I'm afraid the old lady will be unhappy."

"After wearing it for the first time, there will be a second time. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

After hearing what Lin Yushu said, Chuntao stopped hesitating and quickly put on Lin Yushu's clothes.

However, Lin Yushu knew that she could not escape the first day of the lunar year. When she first returned to the mansion, everyone, including the old lady and the second lady, had their eyes and minds on her. It seemed that she had to find something else to entertain these people...

Lin Yushu was well-groomed and dressed, and her sky-blue dress made her look extraordinary. But it was a pity that the dress and a few simple pieces of jewelry were too shabby. Chuntao thought bitterly in her heart that otherwise her young lady would definitely be the most beautiful lady in the capital.

As soon as they left the house, Mrs. Zhou, who was eating melon seeds in the yard, saw Lin Yushu's outfit and her eyes almost popped out. She hurriedly pulled Fuling and stopped Lin Yushu together.

"Madame Zhou, Fuling, what are you doing?"

Chuntao spoke in a bad tone. These days, Lin Yushu never let anyone enter her room except Chuntao and the other three. Therefore, in the Bixiao Courtyard, only their room was relatively quiet. The courtyard had long been in chaos due to Nanny Zhou and Fuling.

If Lin Yushu hadn't stopped her, Chuntao would have had a big fight with them.

Mrs. Zhou thought of the old lady's instructions and gritted her teeth, "I am afraid that the young lady does not understand the rules of the mansion and is mistaken for being unfilial and unfraternal!"
