Chapter 135

Bai Helian chose to keep the old lady from giving gifts to mammy Li. She could understand this by thinking about it a little, but Yingchun didn't understand it all the time.

But if you don't understand, she won't ask baihecan what happened. No matter who she used to be, now she has been with the second young lady, so there should be no doubt, let alone betrayal. Even if the second young lady killed and set fire, she must be the watchman.

White crane dye also did not explain more, only told her two people: "the Li mother's nephew's affairs to inquire, the more detailed the better, including the girl who once said, or the nephew's fancy which girl, all know some.". The gift can't be given in vain. It's better to solve other people's life problems. "

Baihecan was forced to bribe mammy Li behind his wife's back. The old lady treated her very well. If she didn't have to, she wouldn't do it. But the old lady once said that sentence has been wandering in her mind, what will kill how many children of the white family, this thing is not clear, her heart has never been landing.

It's not the first time to search the memory of the original owner. Unfortunately, the memory of these things is a blank. Since the original owner's memory, the Bai family is almost the same as it is now. There are only a few concubines, aunts and children who come to the house. There should be nothing else except Bai Yanyu, the third lady who has not met.

But the old lady will not be aimless, will not empty talk. Since she can say that, there must be a reason for her to say that. Since she can't find out the truth from the old lady, she can only do this. She can start from Mammy Li. Maybe mammy Li can tell us a few words of truth.

Li's nephew also lives in Shangdu City, which is located in the north and is relatively poor. Fortunately, Mammy Li had monthly silver to help her. She had bought a small courtyard with two rooms. Although she was poor, she would not go hungry.

He went out to inquire about things outside in silence, and came back with detailed information one day later: "Li Zhu is 39 years old. He has lost the lower part of his left leg and has to walk with double crutches. Li Zhuren is very practical and not lazy. Although he lives in a small yard and is not able to move himself, he still grows a small garden at the gate. The vegetables produced are enough for him to eat. Other expenses depend on mother Li's help. But mammy Li's ability is limited. The most she can give each month is one or two. He is reluctant to spend it. Most of it is saved. He hopes to ask for a daughter-in-law to stay with the Li family. It's a pity that his legs and feet are not flexible, and his wish for a daughter-in-law has never been achieved. "

Yingchun was quick witted and interjected: "what about the girl who used to kiss? Do you have any contacts now? "

Murmur shook her head. "The girl got married a few years ago, but next to Li Zhu lives a widow in her thirties, who has no children. They usually communicate with each other a lot. The widow is also a real person, who can often help Li Zhu take care of the garden, and Li Zhu will also give some of her own vegetables to the widow. The maid observed for a day, and the widow looked good. She was also affectionate and righteous to Li Zhu, but Li Zhu seemed to deliberately avoid it. There is a rumor in the neighborhood that the widow died her husband because of bad luck. But the maid thinks that it's not because of this that Li Zhu evades her. Most likely, his legs are inconvenient and he doesn't have much savings, so he's afraid to drag others down. "

White crane dye heard here, for Li Zhu's situation has been roughly clear. So he told Yingchun: "you can do the following things. You can take a hundred taels of silver for Li Zhu. Then you can take a gold hairpin, a pair of gold bracelets and two pieces of cloth suitable for the neighbor's widow. Then you can go to the cloth shop to buy some materials that Li Zhu can use. Take these things with you and send them to Li Zhu."

After that, he thought about it again and added: "maybe it's not enough. You can find a rice village and leave silver. Let rice village send enough food to Li Zhu every month. Rice and noodles should be available. In addition, contact a butcher to deliver meat to Li Zhu every three days, including refined meat, fat and bone. Since this matter has been managed, it will be managed to the end. In the future, these things will be sent for a long time to ensure Li Zhu's life. "

Finally, we should emphatically remind: "it can be disclosed that it was sent by us, but we must make it clear that this matter is confidential. Tell Li Zhu that he can't tell anyone."

Yingchun didn't understand, "in this case, wouldn't mammy Li know that we did it?"

She shook her head with a smile: "you can't tell anyone, but he will tell his aunt. Wait. In a few days, mother Li will come to her door. "

Yingchun went to work according to her words. Bai hecan asked murmur to close the door, and then asked her, "do you think it's possible that there was a child in Bai's family, but he was killed secretly by Bai Xingyan?"

Murmur frowned and thought for a while, then said: "if the young lady's guess is right, then the maidservant thinks that the dead child is probably..."

She stopped here, but Bai hecan took the words: "nine times out of ten, my mother Chunyu LAN gave birth."Silent language nods, "maidservant also is this meaning. After all, if other aunts were born, there would be no rumors in the mansion for so many years, but the eldest lady... Is not right When she said that, she immediately denied her own idea, "if it's the eldest lady, it shouldn't be. At least aunt Hong came in early. If the eldest lady is pregnant with other children besides the young lady, aunt Hong can't be unclear. Unless... "She thought of another possibility," unless the eldest lady was pregnant only once, that is, when she gave birth to a young lady, but she gave birth to more than one child. "

White crane dye heard here, took a deep breath, his face covered with a layer of haze.

Murmur is indeed a careful servant girl. She wants to go with her. As murmur said, if the incident that the old lady blurted out really had something to do with Chunyu LAN, then if Chunyu LAN had been pregnant twice, it should not only be Hong's, but also many people in the house would know it. It's impossible to hide it for so many years.

Unless, as murmur said, Chunyu Lan was only pregnant once, but gave birth to twins.

Unfortunately, she was the only one who survived the birth. It was inevitable that all the people who participated in the affair, including the midwife and the maid, had been executed, and it was impossible to reveal the secret.

Her heart rises irritable, if it is twin, that killed, will be sister, or brother?

"Silence." She said softly, "the reason why I kept it from my grandmother is to find out about it. Grandmother certainly knows, but I can understand if she doesn't say it. Bai Xingyan is her son no matter what. She has to protect him. But my heart is very sad, a woman gave birth to a child is equivalent to go back to the gate of hell, not to mention the hardships of pregnancy in October. Every child is the flesh of her mother's heart. How can I let my mother suffer the pain of gouging out the flesh of her heart? "

Two days later, mother Li came to Yinxia courtyard one morning. When she came, it was raining. She carried a food box in her hand and covered it with her coat for fear of rain.

Welcome spring and silent language welcome people in, and then retreat tacit understanding.

Mammy Li put the food box on the table and told Bai hecan: "the old lady said that if it rains today, the second lady will not go there to say hello. This is the meat cake newly baked in the morning. Let the old slave bring it to the second young lady for breakfast. "

At this point, she stepped back and knelt down to Bai hecan.

"The old slave kowtowed the second young lady for her great kindness. In the next life, I will repay her for her great kindness." Mother Li is full of tears. Her nephew has been troubling her for nearly ten years. She thought that even the old lady could do nothing but that. But she didn't expect that the second young lady not only did it quietly, but also did it so beautifully.

White crane dye with a smile will Li mammy up, "mammy so see, I this is just to do something, I believe that such a thing, as long as the grandmother has the ability, will also help Mammy.". It's just that she's helpless. She's suffering herself

Mother Li sighed, "to tell you the truth, the old lady had a very good life at that time. But at that time, the old slave's nephew's leg was not broken, and his life was easy, and he couldn't talk about it. Later, when the second lady came in, everything changed. The old lady didn't have much silver in her hand. How could the old slave take it? "

She said while wiping her tears, "I never dreamed that the second young lady would help Li Zhu without saying a word. My heart is both grateful and miserable. How can the old slave repay such a great favor from the second young lady? "

White crane dye shakes his head, "I'm not trying to repay you. Mammy doesn't have to worry about it. It was originally mentioned by them in the Spring Festival, because the Emperor gave them a lot of good things a few days ago. I gave them some girl's gadgets, and I also gave grandma a lot of tonics. So they mentioned that they should also give some to Mammy. I think my jewelry and cloth are all used by young girls. It's not suitable to give it to Mammy. I'd better help Li Zhu and lighten Mammy's burden in the future. "

Mother Li quickly said, "where is the burden reduction? There is no burden at all. Zhu has proposed to the little widow, and we don't mind if she died. As long as she can live well with Zhu and have a child, it's better than anything. Zhu said, he must come and kowtow to the second lady before he gets married. Thank his great benefactor. "

White crane dye didn't refuse, "well, he doesn't have to go specially. On the day of his marriage, I'll be a bridegroom for him!"

"This... This is true?" Mother Li was overjoyed. "Is the second young lady going to be the master of Zhu's marriage?"

She nodded. "Does mammy think it's appropriate?"

"Right, right. This is our Li family's big face. If the second young lady can show up, no one will dare to bully Zhu and his daughter-in-law. Their small days will be more prosperous. " Mother Li struggled to get down on her knees again, kowtowing and saying: "the second young lady is very kind. I don't think I can repay her. No matter what happens in the future, as long as the second young lady says, I will go through fire and water at all costs!"White crane dye didn't mention that child's matter, two people said again a few words, she personally will mother Li out of the door, and then ordered to welcome spring: "take an umbrella to send mother Li." At the same time, he gave a wink to Yingchun and immediately understood
