Chapter 1789: Secret Guard, do you want a wife or not?

Shi Li returned to the yard she had been away from for a long time.

Before she got close, she saw two familiar figures standing at the door with their necks stretched out, looking in her direction.

It was none other than Mian Si and Jin Xiao.

The moment they saw Shi Li, their eyes were red, but they behaved more calmly, kneeling politely to Shi Li, their voices trembling slightly.

"Miss, you are back."

After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Shi Li was very touched to see two people who were loyal to her. She reached out to help them stand up and looked at them carefully.

In the end, Xu was concerned about her reputation and did not dare to treat the people in her courtyard harshly after Shi Li left. Mian Si and Jin Xiao had a very peaceful life in the past six months.

After accompanying Shi Li into the house, Mian Si and Jin Xiao exchanged glances secretly, and then knelt in front of Shi Li together.

"Miss, could you please ask the people around to leave? We have something to talk about."

The two of them were so serious that Shi Li naturally didn't dare to be careless. He smiled and asked everyone else to leave, leaving only them by his side.

This was not enough, Mian Si walked to the door to guard it, leaving Jin Xiao alone to talk to Shi Li.

The two of them had been invisible people in the Jiang Mansion for more than half a year. No one paid attention to them, but their ability to eavesdrop became better and better, and they also knew how to prevent others from overhearing them.

Seeing that everything was arranged, Jin Xiao raised her head and said with tears in her eyes, "Miss, I'm afraid there was another hidden reason when my wife passed away."

Shi Li looked at Jin Xiao in astonishment.

Not long ago, Mian Si accidentally discovered that Xu's wet nurse would go out secretly every month.

Normally, a wet nurse serving a mistress could go out freely, but she was always very cautious and never brought any maid with her. She always went out and came back alone.

After observing for two months, Mian Si felt something was wrong, so she took the opportunity to quietly follow the wet nurse to see where she went and what she was doing.

As a result, she followed Xu's wet nurse all the way to the countryside outside the city and saw her give a silver ingot to a strange old woman.

But everyone in the mansion knew that this wet nurse had no relatives.

Mian Si was smart and did not leave directly with Xu's wet nurse. Instead, she quietly inquired about the affairs of the old women nearby.

She actually found out that this woman was a famous midwife in the capital city. Later, something went wrong while delivering a baby for the wife of some wealthy family, and she was sent away.

As soon as these words were spoken, Mian Si immediately thought of Shi Li's mother who died in childbirth. After returning, she secretly discussed it with Jin Xiao, and they both felt that something was fishy.

I finally waited for Shi Li to come back and immediately told her about this matter.

[The host has some opinions~]

[I thought it was an old story and it would be hard to verify, but it turned out to be hard to find! ]

[But I’m still thinking about Eighteen. Where on earth is he? Woohoo…]

Shi Li sat in the chair silently. Based on what he knew before and what Mian Si and Jin Xiao said, he could basically guess what the truth was.

The midwife was a ready-made witness.

She had to have someone watch her.

The rest depends on Jiang Yu’s attitude.

Yes, Shi Li did not act impulsively and went to confront Xu now.

No matter how good Jiang Yu is to his daughter, if he encounters a scandal like this where a second wife murders the original wife, Jiang Yu may not stand on her side. He will most likely just cover up the situation.

Therefore, before testing Jiang Yu's true attitude, Shi Li would not easily confront Xu.

This time when she came back from Jiangnan, the Sun family brought her a lot of people.

Although there were no secret guards, there were still many guards with good skills. Shi Li then found a guard and asked Mian Si to take him to the countryside to temporarily keep an eye on the midwife, but not to alert the enemy.

Afterwards, Shi Li began to think about how to test Jiang Yu.

Before this, Xu was very tactful. She returned all the items that had been swindled away from the original owner, under the pretext that she had just returned and wanted to buy some new things.

Finally, Xu sincerely took Shi Li's hand and handed her the account book of the shop that she had cheated her into managing on the pretext of her young age.

"Now that you are older, it's time to return these shops to their original owners."

Shi Li naturally didn't buy her tricks. She took the account book with a smile and said, "Thank you for your hard work over the years, Madam. I wonder if these shops have suffered losses? I dare not ask you to make up for it."

To put it sarcastically, Xu looked at Shi Li and almost bit her teeth.

"What are you talking about? The surplus from the past few years is all here." She took the small box handed to her by the maid and handed it to Shi Li again.

If Shili hadn't spoken just now, she would have wanted to get away with it.

But Shi Li would never let her take any advantage.

"Thank you, ma'am. You've worked hard." He said this as he took the box quickly and steadily.
