The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death

It's not that Shen Xian is really crazy, but Shen Xian's intention to kill Shen Tang is too obvious. She is not just talking for fun, she really wants to take Shen Tang's life. Everyone in the room can feel it. If the Second Madam doesn't say so, she can't stop everyone from talking. To put it bluntly, she is doing it to protect Shen Xian, fearing that she will be punished by the old lady after she detoxifies.

Ginkgo felt sad when she saw all the good things scattered on the ground. Any one of them could be exchanged for several of hers, and it was such a pity that they were broken like this. What was even more infuriating was that two of the broken porcelain bottles were taken from the girl.

Ginkgo was even more worried that the maid would not be able to stop Shen Xian and would hurt Shen Tang, so she pulled Shen Tang's sleeve and said, "Young lady, please don't bother the eldest lady anymore. Go back."

Shen Tang came here just for the sake of going through the motions, just to avoid being gossiped about and to anger Shen Xi and the Second Wife. Now that his goal has been achieved, Shen Tang naturally won't stay any longer and turns around and leaves.

Looking at Shen Tang's leaving back, Shen Xian wished she could have a knife in her eyes and cut Shen Tang into pieces. The second wife's expression was not much better. Although Shen Xian looked like the old lady, her eyes were exactly the same as the second wife's, full of viciousness.

After leaving Qinglan Garden, Shen Tang walked towards Qingyi Garden. Yinxing said, "Second Madam is so kind to the eldest daughter. She sent her back home and even ignored the palace banquet to accompany her the whole time. Even when the third daughter was sick, she never saw Second Madam so worried."

Shen Tang walked forward and said casually, "Second Aunt has always loved my eldest sister. This is known to everyone in the mansion. Don't say this anymore. If it accidentally gets to Third Sister's ears, she can't accuse me of instigating the relationship between her and Second Aunt. Whether Second Aunt loves her more or my eldest sister more has nothing to do with me."

Ginkgo said, "I know. It's because there's no one around. The Second Madam loves the eldest girl because of the old lady. But now that the eldest girl has made mistakes again and again, the old lady's heart has shifted to the young lady. The Second Madam has become more and more protective of the eldest girl. The young lady doesn't know what the maids in the mansion are talking about. They all say that if it was the third girl who fell ill today, the Second Madam would never be so worried."

The master and servant walked further and further away, and their voices became quieter and quieter.

After the two left, a green figure walked out from behind a rockery. Shen Ran stood beside the rockery and watched Shen Tang walk away.

The maidservant standing aside said, "Miss, don't take it to heart..."

Shen Ran's eyes were dim.

She didn't want to take it to heart, but these words used to be harsh to her ears, and today they were heartbreaking.

Today, Shen Xian was poisoned in the palace, and the imperial physician was unable to cure her for the time being. The Second Madam wanted to take Shen Xian back home, so Shen Ran followed them. She followed behind the Second Madam and Shen Xian, and the Second Madam didn't notice her at all. Before she got on the carriage, the Second Madam urged the servant to drive the carriage out of the palace.

She just stood there, watching the carriage go away. She had been deceiving herself before. She thought her mother only cared about her elder sister and neglected her daughter to please the old lady. But when the old lady was not paying attention, her mother still only had her elder sister in her eyes, not her biological daughter.

The maid said, "The Madam is so concerned about the eldest daughter because she was poisoned. Deep down, she must still care about you the most. How could she love someone else's daughter more than her own..."

But is she really her parents' biological daughter?

Shen Ran looked at the direction Shen Tang left, Ginkgo's words lingering in his ears.

Mother ignored her so completely today, was it really because her elder sister was poisoned? If she was also poisoned, would mother really care about her so much?

Shen Ran, who had been neglected since childhood and watched his own mother love others more, had a crazy idea flash through his mind.

Besides, Shen Tang looked back after she walked away. She had wanted to instigate Shen Ran and the Second Wife for a long time. Today was such a good opportunity, how could she not take the opportunity to put a few thorns in their way? Her father trusted the Second Master so much, and she could shake her father little by little, so she didn't believe that she couldn't shake Shen Ran.

After returning to Qingyi Garden, Shen Tang poured himself some tea. Just as he took a sip, there was a knock on the window.

Shen Tang walked towards the window, pushed it open and saw Chen Shan standing outside. Shen Tang was a little embarrassed. A few days ago, she had firmly told people not to come and said that she did not want to marry for the good of her master. In the end, she was thwarted by Xie Guimo. Shen Tang even doubted that Xie Guimo would not believe what she said in the future.

Chen Shan reported, "After the Crown Prince's Consort left, the Fourth Madam immediately sent her confidant to Wangzhou with money to redeem the maid named Chunlan. She also said that no matter how much it cost, she would even use the name of the Pingyuan Marquisate if necessary, to bring her to the capital."

Ginkgo's eyes were wide open.

The Fourth Madam actually wanted to redeem Chunlan, and that was a full four thousand taels. Moreover, Baihualou said four thousand taels, so when it came to redeeming the person, they would definitely raise the price.

It was shocking enough that the Fourth Madam redeemed a maid trapped in a brothel. In order to bring Chunlan back, she even agreed to act under the name of Pingyuan Marquis' Mansion. If the old lady knew about this, she would never agree.

Shen Tang's intuition told her that the letter was very important. She was certain of it when she saw the anger on Fourth Madam's face when she saw the letter. However, she didn't expect that the importance of the letter was even beyond her imagination.

What message did the letter convey to the Fourth Madam, making her redeem Chunlan at all costs?

There was no news in the previous life about the Fourth Madam redeeming a brothel maid. Whether during her lifetime or after her death, Shen Tang was more certain that the letter fell into the hands of the Second Madam, and that the Second Madam had understood it.

Shen Tang ordered Chen Shan, "Help me give the Fourth Madam some laxatives."

Ginkgo was stunned and looked at Shen Tang blankly, "The fourth wife loves you the most, why do you..."

Shen Tang warned Chen Shan, "Don't overdo it."

Shen Tang had no way to ask the Fourth Madam to see a doctor, so he could only use this method. It was just a mild stomachache, so he could see a doctor. If there was really a problem, he could be treated two days in advance, and perhaps the disease would not come as suddenly as in his previous life.

Shen Tang asked him to do such a small thing, and Chen Shan agreed immediately. He jumped up and disappeared by the window.

In less than half an hour, news came that the fourth wife had a stomachache. After the doctor had examined Shen Xi, he was about to leave the house when he was hurriedly invited to the North Courtyard. However, when the doctor arrived at the North Courtyard, the fourth wife's stomachache had gone away. However, since the doctor had been invited, she simply asked the doctor to take her pulse. The pulse was normal, just a little tired from the long journey, but there was nothing else wrong.

Chen Shan conveyed the doctor's words to Shen Tang, and Shen Tang finally put his mind at ease after being worried for several days.

Shen Tang sat down and drank tea. He had nothing better to do, so he read a book to kill time. He had only read two pages when Si'er ran in and said, "Miss, I don't know what's wrong with the third lady. She has also developed a rash and is itchy all over..."

Ginkgo and Qiutong became nervous after hearing this, fearing that Shen Tang would also be in trouble.

However, Shen Tang couldn't lower her lips. She didn't expect that just one or two times would make Shen Ran suspect that she was not his biological daughter, but now it seems that the effect is far beyond her imagination.

No one in the mansion would harm Shen Ran. If something happened to her, it could only be that Shen Ran drugged herself. This was self-harm, and it was also to verify whether the second wife was more worried about her or more concerned about Shen Xi.

Shen Tang didn't believe that his instigation would have such a good effect. This was definitely the last straw that broke the camel's back.

Shen Tang asked, "Then what happened? Did the Second Madam return to the South Courtyard?"

Si Er nodded. "The second wife hurried back when she heard that the third lady was in trouble. But before the doctor could see the third lady, she went back to guard the eldest lady..."
