Transmigrated into a short-lived widow? Cold-faced uncle fights for my life

Hua Cui widened her eyes upon hearing that and quickly ran out the door. She only breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that there was no one around.

He closed the door tightly again and looked at Jiang Mingwei helplessly.

"Miss, you can't say these words out loud anymore. If someone else hears them, it will be troublesome!"

"What's the big deal? She's the one who dares to do it but not take responsibility for it, not me. I'm lucky enough that I didn't get killed by her. Do I have to continue to depend on her?"

Jiang Mingwei curled her lips and poured herself a sip of tea.

Hua Cui sighed, but couldn't help asking: "How did the young lady know about this? Did she figure out something?"

"I went there today to test her, but I didn't expect Wei Jing to be there too. We must have had the same idea."

"Zhou concealed the truth very well, but when she heard that Wei Jing was assassinated, she didn't seem surprised at all, and she didn't feel any regret or frustration about why he didn't die. Instead, she was too calm!"

Jiang Mingwei carefully recalled every detail of her meeting with Zhou today, and couldn't help but speak with emotion.

"The calmer she is, the more she is suppressing her emotions. But I always feel that she didn't do this alone, there must be someone helping her behind the scenes!"

"As for who it is, that's beyond my guess... Let the Grand Princess and Wei Jing investigate!"

After saying that, she waved her hand and drank the tea in the cup.

Hua Cui massaged her shoulders and teased her.

"If it's really the old lady, then Miss is at a great loss, isn't it? She clearly wanted to kill you and the Second Master, but Miss gave her a gold hairpin? That hairpin costs a lot of money! It's such a pity that Miss gave it away like that..."

"pity?"

Jiang Mingwei snorted lightly, narrowed her eyes slightly, and raised her head wantonly, looking determined to win.

"Your young lady won't do business at a loss! Even if she can't get back her capital, she will have to pay some interest. That hairpin is not so easy to get! Since she took it, she will naturally have to bear the corresponding consequences!"

After saying that, he smiled even more proudly.

Hua Cui didn't understand what was going on, but when she saw her young lady with a sly smile on her face, she knew that she must be up to some bad intentions!

The movement of her hands paused slightly and Hua Cui curled her lips.

Yes, her young lady is no longer the poor little girl who used to swallow her anger and be restricted in everything.

Now, she has the right to fight for herself!

So that night, Zhou, who had been feeling out of breath all day, drank a bowl of bird's nest as usual and planned to go to bed.

She had anticipated that she would toss and turn and have trouble sleeping tonight!

that's the truth.

But it was different from the past. She suddenly felt extremely itchy all over. She couldn't stand the itch and had to scratch continuously.

But the more you scratch it, the more it itches!

This went on and on, leaving bloody marks all over his body!

"Ling'er! Ling'er!"

Seeing that her nails were covered with red dandruff and were about to be disfigured, Zhou finally realized that something was wrong and hurriedly called out for Nanny Wang.

Nanny Wang woke up from her couch and hurried to Zhou.

Seeing her body and face covered with scratches that looked like they were about to bleed, I was really shocked!

"Madam, you...what's wrong with you?"

"Nonsense, what would I do with you if I knew? Why don't you go get a doctor to check me out? Are you planning to make me itch to death?"

"Go quickly, it itches me to death, it really itches me to death!"

She was still scratching, and Nanny Wang did not dare to delay. She quickly got up and notified all the maids in the yard to take care of Zhou, while she immediately went to call a doctor.

All night long, the whole yard was filled with Zhou's screams due to the unbearable itchiness...

When Jiang Mingwei woke up early the next morning, he saw Hua Cui standing at the head of the bed, looking at him with a smile.

She was startled and quickly hid in the bed.

"Why are you standing in front of my bed, grinning so foolishly so early in the morning?"

"Of course I am happy to see the young lady return safely! Also, I know why the young lady gave the golden hairpin to the old lady yesterday!"

"It is said that the old lady howled all night last night, and her body was covered with bloodstains. Now she dares not see anyone anymore! I don't know what happened. I checked around but couldn't find out the reason. They just said it was an allergy. If Hua Cui guessed correctly, it was done by the young lady, right?"

Hua Cui rolled her eyes and grinned.

After hearing these words, Jiang Mingwei finally came to her senses and a slight smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

She stretched lazily, her eyes filled with coldness.

"Of course! I know she loves drinking bird's nest. If she touches the gold hairpin alone, it's fine. But once it touches the bird's nest, the two will react immediately, making her whole body itch unbearably."

"It looks like she's allergic to something, but it's actually a symptom of poisoning! Although it can only be used once, it's good for her."

Jiang Mingwei didn't think she was vicious at all.

Compared with what Zhou did to her and Wei Jing, this little punishment was just like a tickle and was not worth mentioning!

Yawning, Jiang Mingwei asked Hua Cui to help her dress up as she was going out of the house.

"Leaving the house? Miss has just returned from the valley. Your body has been in severe pain these days. Why do you suddenly want to leave the house? How about resting for two days before going?" Hua Cui asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Jiang Mingwei shook her head.

"The pain in my body is not a big deal. I went to Renyifang to get myself two prescriptions to treat my internal injuries. I also want to inform you of something."

"Regarding the poison in my sister-in-law's body, this matter cannot be delayed!"

If Jiang Mingwei calculated correctly, Li Yihuan's second attack of the poison would soon come...

She must get ready again as soon as possible!

Seeing that Jiang Mingwei insisted, Hua Cui naturally didn't say much and quickly finished making everything for Jiang Mingwei.

She was as plain and elegant as usual, but with a thin layer of pearl powder on her face, she looked particularly bright and charming.

Before leaving the general's mansion, Jiang Mingwei did not forget to disgust Zhou again.

She could have just left, but she refused!

I made an excuse, saying that I had just come back and was about to go out again, and I was afraid that my mother-in-law would be angry, so I came to say goodbye to my mother.

Tell her that you need to go out of the house.

Zhou's appearance was completely ruined at this moment. She hid in the tent and dared not see anyone. How could he see her?

I am so annoyed!

It's not that she didn't suspect that there was something wrong with the gold hairpin that Jiang Mingwei sent her, but after asking three or four doctors in succession, they all said that there was nothing wrong with the hairpin.

Besides, she was not the only one who had come into contact with the golden hairpin, so she could only swallow the loss and could not blame anyone else.

"Get lost! Tell her to get lost! As long as she doesn't hang around in front of me, she can go wherever she wants. Even if she dies outside, what does it have to do with me?"

Zhou was so angry that she smashed the bowl beside the bed. Nanny Wang hurriedly lowered her head and went out to pass the message, looking at Jiang Mingwei with a very unfriendly look.

"Madam, the old lady is not feeling well, so I won't see you anymore!"

"But please allow me to say something. After all, you have lost your husband. You should stay at home and not show up in public all day long!"
