I was a housekeeper in ancient times

Yu Muyan nodded, “Mother Lin has already gone to check.”

He asked in confusion: "Do you have any grudges with this woman?"

"No."

"Why then?"

"That woman was once the maiden of that person's biological mother."

"what?"

He was startled, "You are doubting..."

Yu Muyan said bitterly: "It's not suspicion, it's certainty. From the beginning to the end, he was the only one who tried every means to harm me."

He hammered the corner of the table fiercely. "No matter how much you guard against him, you can't prevent him. Who would have thought that he would bribe the people in the mansion to kill you. If it weren't for Aunt Lian, you would have been..."

The more he thought about it, the more scared he became. Due to etiquette, no matter how worried he was about Yu Muyan, he couldn't come to the Bo Mansion often, let alone protect Yu Muyan at all times.

Just like what happened tonight, if Aunt Lian hadn't stopped it in time, the consequences would have been something he wouldn't have been able to bear.

Back then, when he saw Yu Muyan marry Lu Yuxuan with his own eyes, he still remembers the feeling of helplessness and heartache.

That time he couldn't and wouldn't keep Yu Muyan, but this time it was different. He wanted to stay with Yu Muyan and keep her safe.

She must not be allowed to be hurt by Lu Yuxuan again.

"When will you move out of the Earl's House?" he asked.

"We'll move out soon after we've dealt with Aunt Lian's funeral."

"I'm really worried about you staying here. Move out as soon as possible to avoid any more accidents."

"I know, but who could have thought that he would go to such extremes to kill me."

As they were talking, Lin Weiqiao arrived. She saw Yu Muyan and Qi Motai chatting happily and didn't want to interrupt them, but now was not the time to cultivate feelings. "Madam, Master Tai."

Yu Muyan looked up, "Mom is here, how is the investigation going?"

She talked about how Aunt Cai had asked for leave to go home a while ago, and also mentioned that Aunt Cai's son had been promoted by Lu Yuxuan.

Yu Muyan nodded, "That's probably because he ordered Aunt Cai to kill me."

She asked, "How is Madam going to deal with this?"

"Of course I'll find him."

"He's a cunning man. He hasn't shown up for so long. Even when something happened at Chuqing Pavilion, there was no sign of him. I think we might as well report it to the police."

Qi Motai asked, "Report to the authorities? The authorities can't find him either."

She explained, "Mrs. Lian is dead. He ordered someone to do it, so he must be the mastermind. Killing someone means paying with one's life. Reporting to the authorities is to clear Mrs. Lian's name and to let the government investigate the matter and trace it to him. Otherwise, he won't admit it if there is no witnesses or evidence in the future. The bigger the fuss is, the more panicked he will be. Some people outside are saying that his death was faked. It will be easy to get away with it after a while."

Yu Muyan thought about it and it made sense. "Our family has been in trouble one after another, but we can't find the murderer. This also indirectly proves that he wants to harm us."

Qi Motai said: "Then leave this matter to me. He is such a hateful person that he can hide until now!"

Lin Weiqiao now regretted not continuing to follow Xiao Qianluo. Through Xiao Qianluo, she would definitely know the whereabouts of Lu Yuxuan. However, Lu Yuxuan was a shrewd man. If he found her, she would be dead.

Then again, Qi Motai was still worried about Yu Muyan's safety. "You have to be careful outside and at home. Last time, I thought he wouldn't do it again, but who would have thought that he would use someone else to hurt you again! Why don't you take the child and live in my house first?"

Yu Muyan and Lin Weiqiao were both shocked. Yu Muyan was shy and embarrassed, and said quickly: "No need, I can move out soon..."

"But this has happened for the first time. There will definitely be a next time."

"I know, but..."

Lin Weiqiao said, "I know Master Tai is worried about Madam, but this is not right and it will easily lead to gossip. I know Master Tai doesn't care about these things, but Madam is a woman after all, and her reputation is still important. Right now, Madam Lian's affairs have not been dealt with yet, and we have to give an explanation to Madam Lian's family."

At this time, the Lady of Huiyang County came and said that after Banqing got better, she would take Banqing back to the Qi family to take care of the pregnancy.

Yu Muyan thought that the Lady of Huiyang County was blaming her for not taking good care of Banqing, so she said hurriedly, "Aunt, I'm really sorry. I didn't expect this."

The Lady of Huiyang said, "Look at what you said. Who would have thought of this? I was afraid that Banqing would cause you trouble. If something like this happened, you would be busy. Alas, Banqing has some friendship with Aunt Lian. I was afraid that she would be sad if she stayed here all day. She would also be upset."

"Yes, Sister Banqing is also sad. Fortunately, God blesses Sister Banqing and the baby in her belly, both are fine, otherwise I would..."

"Don't feel burdened. You can't be blamed for this. But you were almost murdered several times. This was clearly aimed at you. Do you know who did it?"

"Aunt, he was probably the one who ordered it."

"Him, him again?"

The Lord of Huiyang County didn't know what to say. He was shocked and heartbroken.

It can be said that Yu Muyan has done nothing wrong to Lu Yuxuan. Since she married into the Bo's Mansion, she has used her dowry to subsidize the Bo's Mansion, manage household affairs, and give birth to children. Yu Muyan has devoted a lot of effort to this family, and even her children have been plotted against by Old Madam Lu.

In the end, Lu Yuxuan actually deliberately harmed Yu Muyan several times, which was really shocking. Looking around the world, who could be as cruel as Lu Yuxuan?

The Lady of Huiyang County mentioned that it was unsafe for something like this to happen in the Earl's Mansion, and her younger sisters would inevitably be scared, so she suggested taking them all to the Qi family and letting her take care of them personally.

Yu Muyan said hurriedly, "Why should I trouble my aunt? Since Sister Banqing has returned home, she must rest. The children are making a lot of noise, and I'm afraid they will disturb Sister Banqing."

She said, "The house is so big, how could there be a quarrel? Now that this has happened, you are busy, how can you have time to take care of them? You can't even protect yourself now. If they attack you this time, what if they attack Wan Jie'er and the others next time?"

Yu Muyan looked at Lin Weiqiao, and Lin Weiqiao said, "Why not let Wanjie and Qige stay? They are more sensible. Let Fanjie and the other three go back with the county lord. Let their nurses and maids pack up their things. Then they can live directly in the outer house. It will save a lot of trouble."

The Lady of Huiyang nodded and asked Aunt Lian how to deal with this matter.

Yu Muyan said: "Report it to the authorities and let them investigate. Otherwise, our suspicions alone will be useless."

After seeing off the Qi family, Yu Muyan asked Lin Weiqiao to support her and said she wanted to go out.

Lin Weiqiao asked: "Madam, where are you going? You should have a good rest. Chunqing said you didn't sleep much all night."

Yu Muyan looked sad, "Go see Aunt Lian."

"This……"

"Mom, I owe her my life."
