After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom

The Feng Shui is clear and the morning sun is bright.

Bai Youyou slept in until the sun was shining on her butt.

Xiaoju walked in quickly, "Miss, Lord Xu and Miss Xu are here, they are at Madam's place."

Bai Youyou stretched lazily, "Uncle Xu is here to investigate a case?"

"He's wearing an official uniform, so he must be here to investigate a case."

Xiaoju gave her a coat and put it on.

"Why are you going to my mother's place to handle a case? And you're bringing your own daughter with you?"

Bai Youyou walked to the dressing table and sat down. Xiaoju combed her hair with a comb and said with a smile, "Master Xu is here to handle a case, and Miss Xu is here to pay her respects to our Madam. Madam asked me to call you over."

Bai Youyou simply washed up and went to Lu's place.

There is a small kitchen, so you don't have to worry about not having food if you get up late.

"My son, come quickly. This is your uncle Xu's daughter." When Mrs. Lu saw her, the doting in her eyes almost overflowed. "You are of similar age, so you will definitely be able to chat. You can chat with Miss Mengling, and mother will go get you some food."

After Lu finished speaking, she walked out with a smile.

Xu Mengling stood up and nodded slightly towards Bai Youyou, "Fourth Miss Bai."

"Miss Xu, you're welcome. Please take a seat."

Because of Xu Lingyun, Bai Youyou also wanted to get along well with Xu Mengling. She walked over to Xu Mengling and sat down, smiling as she said, "I didn't know you and Uncle Xu were coming today, so I got up a little late."

Xu Mengling glanced at the sun outside the window and was a little surprised. "You just got up?"

"Well, I went to bed late last night."

Bai Youyou looked at the tea in front of her that had not been touched, and told Xiaoju to make some milk tea.

I stayed up late last night to draw a few jewelry patterns, and prepared to send them to Wanbaolou today, but I didn't expect Xu Mengling to come to my door.

"The milk tea that my little orange makes tastes really good. You can try it later."

"Thank you very much."

Xu Mengling thanked him politely and sat straight in the chair, looking a little uncomfortable.

It turned out that she had argued with Bai Youyou several times in order to stand up for Bai Yaoyao. When she went out in the morning, she was prepared to be humiliated by Bai Youyou.

Now......

It turned out that she was just being mean.

Lu brought a bowl of rice porridge and a few dumplings she had made herself, while Cuizhu brought a plate of side dishes and a dish of rice cakes.

"My son Youyou is growing up and is a little sleepy every day."

Mrs. Lu smiled and pushed the two plates of cakes on the table towards Xu Mengling. "These cakes are made by my sister-in-law. Try them and see if you like them."

"Thank you ma'am."

Xu Mengling picked up a piece of biscuit and took a small bite.

Compared to Bai Youyou, who was sitting next to her, holding a bun in one hand and picking up side dishes with chopsticks in the other, eating very generously, her posture was very elegant.

"It's the time to grow, so eat more."

Mrs. Lu served her food with chopsticks in her hand. There was a look of tenderness and doting in her eyes that Xu Mengling had never seen before.

Is this what mother is like?

If her mother were still alive, would she also pamper her like this?

She looked at Lu and Bai Youyou absentmindedly, admiration rising in her eyes.

"Miss Xu, do you like this cake?"

Seeing that she was in a daze and didn't respond even when Lu spoke to her, Liu Xiang quickly reached out a finger and poked her gently.

Xu Mengling reacted and nodded a little embarrassedly, "It tastes great."

She pinched the biscuit and took another bite, then lowered her eyes to hide the envy in her eyes.

"Let Youyou take you around for a while. I'll have someone prepare the food. We'll have lunch here at noon."

Lu said this with a smile, and did not forget to pick up some food for Bai Youyou.

"Yeah." Bai Youyou swallowed the last mouthful of porridge in her mouth and said with a smile: "There's nothing to see in early spring, but the weather is warm. I'll take you for a walk and get some sun."

"it is good."

Bai Youyou let bygones be bygones, and Bai Mengling's back, which had been straight all the time, relaxed a little. She pursed her lips and smiled as she agreed.

Xiaoju was still making milk tea in the small kitchen while Bai Youyou took Xu Mengling for a walk in the garden of the Marquis' Mansion.

After the New Year, even though it’s cold, it also has a hint of spring.

There was some noise coming from the big kitchen, and many maids and servants put down their work and ran over to watch the fun.

"I heard that poison was found in the main kitchen. Go and take a look."

"Let's go."

Upon hearing this, Bai Youyou immediately pulled Xu Mengling's wrist and turned around, "Let's go and watch Uncle Xu solve the case."

Xu Mengling was pulled by her as they jogged along the way. Looking at Bai Youyou's hair blown by the wind, she suddenly felt a sense of freedom and joy.

Since she was a child, her father never asked her to learn the manners of those ladies from noble families.

She was also lively and free-spirited when she was a child, but once when she went out for a trip, she heard others talking about her in private, saying that she had a mother who gave birth to her but did not raise her, and that she was indeed an unruly child.

Since that time, she has been imitating those noble ladies, walking with lotus steps, smiling without showing her teeth, and not daring to overstep the boundaries with every move she makes.

It has been a long time since she ran so recklessly. The corners of Xu Mengling's mouth slowly rose.

In front of the big kitchen, Xu Lingyun was holding a paper bag in his hand.

The doctor from Jishitang was invited over, took the paper package from his hand, opened it and smelled it, and was shocked, "Sir, this is poisonous. If you eat a lot of it, it will make your lungs cold and form lung congestion."

Vicious?

Xu Lingyun frowned.

The poison found in Mother Xu's room was identified by a doctor and turned out to be a yang poison.

The symptoms of Yin poison and Yang poison are extremely similar. Chun Liu died of Yang poison, but there was a small amount of Yin poison in his body.

"What symptoms would occur if this poison was taken in small amounts?"

"If consumed in small amounts, it will only cause fatigue, chest tightness, and coughing, similar to the symptoms of a cold, but it will not be fatal in the short term."

"Thank you, Doctor Tao."

"You're welcome, Your Excellency."

Doctor Tao bowed and retreated with the medicine box on his back.

Captain Liu brought Mother Xu to the scene. Xu Lingyun walked up to Mother Xu and spread the white paper bag in front of her. "Do you recognize this thing?"

"do not know."

Mother Xu took a glance and immediately denied it.

Xu Lingyun waved to a chubby maid next to him. The maid stepped forward and said timidly, "This thing belongs to Madam Xu. I once saw her put this thing in the cracks of the bricks in the corner of the wall. I thought it was rat poison."

There are many rats in the big kitchen, and rat poison is used to kill the rats every few days. The medicine is kept by Mother Xu.

Mother Xu glared at her, "Stop slandering me, this thing is not mine at all!"

Another maid with a long face stood up and said, "It is indeed Madam Xu's. I saw it too."

Xu Lingyun took the medicine bag and said calmly: "Chun Liu died of Yang poison. The poison found in your room is also Yang poison. The evidence is irrefutable. If you don't tell the truth, then I can only sentence you to be executed later."

When she heard that the emperor would be executed later, Mother Xu's eyes were filled with panic and her body could not help but tremble.
