After rebirth, the daughter of the marquisate went crazy

The two maids who serve my mother personally were brought over from the Duke's Mansion. They are the most loyal. All of my mother's daily life is handled by them, so nothing will go wrong.

At the time, Mother's Luoxia Residence was run by Madam Liang and her wet nurse, Madam Lin. Even meals were prepared in the small kitchen. Madam Lin was in charge of the small kitchen, and she was extremely meticulous. She personally tasted Mother's meals before serving them to the table. She had no idea how Mother had poisoned her.

It turns out that it fell into the incense!

The scent of osmanthus was very light and mixed in with the incense her mother often used. Most people would not notice it, but over time her mother's body would only become more and more poisoned. She remembered that her mother only lit incense before going to bed, and it was impossible to tell the difference when she was asleep!

Who was in charge of my mother's incense burning back then?

Ye Qingyu asked in a trembling voice, "Also, may I ask, Divine Doctor, if someone uses this incense to harm someone, how long will it usually take for that person to die?"

Doctor Ge sighed and said, "It depends on the dosage. If you want to mix it into spices and make sure the changes are imperceptible, the optimal dosage is, um, about half a year."

Ye Qingyu's eyes suddenly widened, and she curled up in pain. "Excuse me, doctor, it's been three years since the fragrance of orchid osmanthus. Can you still distinguish it?"

"One of the reasons why orchid osmanthus is so valuable is that the longer it ages, the more elegant and outstanding its fragrance becomes. The flavor of other spices may become weaker over time, but it does not."

Ye Qingyu suppressed her trembling voice and said, "Thank you, Doctor. I might ask you to help me identify it."

When Doctor Ge saw Ye Qingyu's pale face, how could he not understand? "Okay, girl, don't be too sad. It's bad for your health. You guys should comfort her well." With that, Doctor Ge went out.

"Qingqing, such precious incense must have been recorded in the palace. Don't be sad. I will definitely help you find out everything clearly."

Shen Yanli didn't know how to coax a girl, so he could only pat the back of her hand helplessly and speak in the softest voice.

"Well, thank you very much. This time I came here and gained something unexpected."

She just saw Doctor Ge and asked casually, but she didn't expect that she really found the poison that poisoned her mother from Doctor Ge.

Both the symptoms of orchid incense poisoning that Doctor Ge described and the time of poisoning matched everything about her mother's illness. She remembered that the incense her mother used did have a faint orchid scent.

She had to go and visit her mother's Luoxia Residence.

Since her rebirth, she has not been to Luoxia Residence...

Since the death of her mother, all the maids and servants in Luoxiaju have been disbanded. Nanny Lin strongly requested to stay in Luoxiaju to look after the yard. Before her mother died, she gave the indentures of the loyal people around her to them. The two senior maids were married to the manager of the Duke's Mansion. Nanny Liang is now in charge of the maids and servants in her Wanyan Pavilion.

……

After returning to the Marquis' Mansion from the Prince of Chu's Mansion, Ye Qingyu went directly to her mother's Luoxia Residence.

Luoxiaju was empty and quiet, but it was kept spotlessly clean, and the flowers and plants were still blooming as brightly as when the owner was still alive.

The sun was shining brightly, warmly on the earth. Ye Qingyu pushed the door open and saw Nanny Lin, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, sitting quietly in the sun, doing needlework.

A little maidservant was sitting on a small stool nearby, holding her little face, nodding like a chick pecking at rice, and was about to fall asleep.

The sound of Ye Qingyu pushing the door woke up the little maid and startled Nanny Lin who was doing needlework seriously.

Seeing Ye Qingyu appear, Nanny Lin's old face was a little surprised. "Young lady, how come you have time to come here today?"

Ye Qingyu came to this courtyard only a few times a year. She didn't want to be reminded of her mother by seeing the things around her. This year was her first time stepping into this place.

The little maid quickly stood up and saluted, "Greetings, Miss."

Ye Qingyu looked at the little maid, "Madam Lin, it's been a long time since I last saw you. What's this?"

Nanny Lin smiled kindly, "It's been a while since I last saw the young lady. She's getting prettier and prettier." She's also looking more and more like the eldest lady.

"This is my granddaughter Mingyue. She sees that I'm lonely here alone, so she often comes to keep me company."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Mammy's granddaughter has grown up to be so beautiful. I remember that Luoxia Residence has left two second-class maids to take care of you and clean the yard. Where are they?"

Nanny Lin paused, then smiled and said, "I don't know where she went after finishing her work. Miss, please sit down. Mingyue, go get another chair."

Mingyue said angrily, "What do you mean by finishing the work? What did they do? Didn't you do it all by yourself?"

Mingyue left the words behind and turned to go into the house to move a chair.

Nanny Lin smiled awkwardly and said, "Young lady, please don't bother with this girl. She is just a careless person."

Ye Qingyu's face turned cold, "The maid is lazy and disobedient, you should go find me."

"Mo Shu, watch the door. Wait for those two maids to come back, then arrest them."

Mo Shu took the order and stood at the door.

Nanny Lin smiled and said, "Young lady, there's no need to bother with two ignorant maids. There's no master in this courtyard, so there's no need to bother much. I can finish it quickly by myself. Just think of it as some exercise."

Ye Qingyu said calmly, "Since you are receiving wages as maids, they should do their job well. Madam, don't worry about it. I will replace two maids for you."

Nanny Lin shook her head. "Young lady, there's really no need. I'm still very strong. It was my own request to be in charge of the courtyard back then. There's no need to let another maid accompany me here to waste my years."

Ye Qingyu knew that Nanny Lin still couldn't let go of her mother. "Okay, since you said so, I agree to it. But you will always be too lonely in such a big yard."

Ye Qingyu looked at Mingyue who was carrying the chair back. "How about I give Mingyue wages and let her accompany you? She doesn't need to sell her body indenture. I can just pay her the same monthly salary as a first-class maidservant by my side."

When Mingyue heard Ye Qingyu say this, her face lit up, "Miss, are you telling the truth?"

Nanny Lin shook her head and refused, "Young Miss, how can this be allowed? This girl doesn't know anything, how can she get a monthly salary? She comes here to accompany me when she's free, which is what she should do as a granddaughter."

Ye Qingyu smiled and said, "Madam, there's no need to refuse. She's here to accompany you. If you do anything in the yard, she'll definitely help you. How can she not get her monthly allowance? When you feel better and want to go home and enjoy your children, just let Mingyue come and ask her to come."

Nanny Lin's eyes were filled with tears. "Well, okay, thank you very much, young lady."

Ye Qingyu said seriously, "I came to Luoxia Residence because I have something to ask Madam. Do you still have the incense that my mother used back then?"
