The elder sister killed the whole family, and came back to be beaten to death
Chapter 106 Suspicion
After Concubine Ye sent a palace maid to see her, Shen Xi's rash improved significantly. By noon, the rash had completely disappeared. On the contrary, Shen Ran's rash did not go away for a long time. The doctor came twice, but the rash disappeared and reappeared.
The next day was the day when the Spring Examination ended.
After breakfast, Shen Tang went to pay his respects to the old lady. As soon as Shen Xi's rash healed, he saw the second wife again in Songhe Hall.
The Second Madam looked at him unkindly. Shen Tang stepped forward and said with a smile, "Eldest Sister has had a rash for the past two days, and I haven't seen Second Aunt. Today, Second Aunt is in a good mood to come and pay her respects to Grandmother. It seems that Third Sister's rash has healed as well."
In one sentence, everyone's attention was drawn to the second wife.
Just now the old lady asked about it, and the second wife said that the third girl is not well yet. The eldest girl had a rash, and the second wife took care of her day and night. But when it comes to the third girl, the second wife is too caring. How could she care about someone else's daughter more than her own daughter?
The Second Wife also knew that she had been leaning too much towards Shen Xi these past two days. She said, "Your third sister's condition is not as serious as your eldest sister's..."
But this excuse is untenable. If the flesh falls off from my body, even if it's just a little scratch, I will feel heartbroken for a long time. The third girl and the eldest girl both have rashes and are extremely itchy. Now the eldest girl is recovered, but the third girl is still not.
The old lady knew that the second wife loved Shen Xi. This love was unprecedented, so the old lady didn't think it was a big deal. But now, compared with Shen Ran, the old lady felt a little uneasy.
The Second Wife wanted to tear Shen Tang's mouth apart, and changed the subject, "The other day, the Second Miss went to the front yard to look for the Marquis. Did she want him to go out of the house to help you with something? The Marquis left the house in a hurry, and you waited in the front yard for him to come back."
The second wife asked someone to investigate what Shen Sui was doing outside the house, but no one knew.
But the Second Madam was worried and uneasy until she figured out this abnormal thing, because nothing good had ever happened since Shen Tang went to find Shen Sui. She didn't like the feeling of being out of control, especially since Shen Sui asked Manager Li to prepare a generous gift and go to the Jiang family yesterday, and even had lunch at the Jiang family before leaving. This was the first time in more than ten years. If she didn't figure it out, the Second Madam would be unable to sleep or eat.
The Second Wife didn't dare to ask Shen Sui, so she asked Shen Tang in front of the Old Madam. She was sure that the Old Madam would find it strange. Shen Tang dared not answer her, but he didn't dare not tell the Old Madam.
As expected, the old lady looked at Shen Tang. Shen Tang had already prepared for someone to ask questions, so he said, "Second Aunt, this is a strange question. I am my father's daughter. If I have something to ask, why don't I go to my father? Do you think I should go to my second uncle?"
The second wife said, "The Marquis is busy with military affairs..."
Shen Tang interrupted her coldly, "You're so busy that you don't even have time to take care of your own daughter. Why did you give birth to me?"
The second wife was speechless after being criticized.
Shen Tang said, "It's not that I didn't tell Second Aunt, but my father told me not to tell. If Second Aunt wants to know, she can only ask Father herself."
The Second Wife said, "It seems that the Second Miss has caused trouble, and the Marquis needs to help clean up the mess."
To provoke her.
She was really provoked by her. "Father didn't let me tell because he was afraid that Grandma would worry. If I don't tell her today, Grandma will really misunderstand that I'm the one who caused the trouble."
Shen Tang looked at the old lady. "The other day, my maid went out to buy some cakes. Someone stuffed an anonymous letter into the cakes. The letter said that if I knew whether my mother had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, I should go to the place mentioned in the letter to find him. I didn't dare to go, but I didn't want to take it lightly, so I told my father and asked him to go on my behalf."
"I was anxious to find out, so I didn't go back to the inner courtyard. I waited in the outer courtyard for my father to come back."
The second wife's expression changed, and she gripped the chair tightly. "Who sent you the letter?!"
Shen Tang blinked and said, "Why is Second Aunt reacting so strongly?"
Shen Tang's words once again drew everyone's attention to the second wife.
First, they provoked the Second Wife to be more concerned about Shen Xi, and now they brought up the question of whether Jiang had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl. Everyone was inevitably suspicious. Jiang had given birth in the mansion, and the midwife and maids all said she had given birth to two daughters, so no one believed Jiang's words. If it was really a case of substitution, it must have been done by someone in the mansion. The third daughter was born only one day after the eldest and second daughters...
The old lady looked at Shen Tang, "Did your father see someone?"
Shen Tang shook his head. "No, my father didn't see anyone. I suspect that letter was just to get me out of the house..."
The old lady's eyes were cold.
Shen Tang was targeted by Concubine Ye and the Marquis of Changping's Mansion, and they were undoubtedly the ones who rescued Shen Tang.
She is the imperial concubine after all, and the marquis's mansion is so dishonest, yet they act so unfairly, like a leech. Fortunately, Tang'er acted cautiously, otherwise she would have fallen into their trap again.
Shen Tang lowered his eyes and asked, "Shouldn't I go find my father?"
The old lady said kindly, "It's right to look for your father."
Shen Tang said aggrievedly, "Second Auntie questioned me like she was interrogating a criminal. I won't dare to go to my father if I have any problems in the future..."
The old lady's eyes swept towards the second wife sharply, "Do you think the Marquis is not as sensible as you?!"
The Second Wife could not sit still and said quickly, "Old Madam, calm down. I didn't mean that..."
"If you have the leisure time, pay more attention to Ran'er," the old lady said coldly.
The Second Wife almost bit her silver teeth to pieces, and dared not utter a word of rebuttal.
Shen Tang looked at the old lady and said, "Grandma, my two cousins have finished their Spring Examination today, and I want to go to the Jiang family."
How could he not be at ease at all? He knew that he was being targeted by the Changping Marquis' Mansion, but he still dared to go out of the mansion again and again.
But after going through the dangerous and treacherous palace, the Jiang family was much safer than the palace. In addition, Shen Tang was cautious, and there would always be someone to rescue him if something happened. The old lady did not stop him, "Remember to be careful when you go out."
Shen Tang agreed.
It was almost time, so Shen Tang didn't stay any longer and got up to leave.
When she arrived at the gate, the servant was already waiting there in a carriage. Shen Tang got on the carriage and headed towards the Imperial Examination Hall.
Today is the day when the Spring Examination ends. Many people are waiting outside the Imperial Examination Hall to pick up people. At the place where Jiang Mingxiu and Jiang Mingyuan were sent last time, Jiang Li and Jiang Ning were already waiting there. When they saw Shen Tang, they waved to him and came forward to greet him.
Jiang Ning smiled widely, "I didn't expect my cousin to come."
Shen Tang smiled and said, "I was free at home, so I came to pick up my cousin and join in the fun."
Jiang Ning leaned close to Shen Tang and whispered, "Yesterday, my uncle went to the Jiang family and talked with my grandparents for a long time. You have no idea how happy they were. I've never seen them so happy in my life."
Ever since the eldest brother went missing from the Jiang family, he has been a source of worry for my grandparents. Now that the eldest brother has been found, and he is a handsome man, talented in both civil and military affairs, my grandparents are happy for my father, and my mother in heaven is also relieved, so they are naturally happy.
However, this joy cannot be shared with other members of the Jiang family for the time being. After all, the more people know, the easier it is for the secret to leak out, so it can only be kept secret for the time being.
