Outside the house, in a secluded place.

Ling Shuang frowned slightly, her expression was indescribable, and she heard every word of the conversation between the mother and daughter in the room.

At the beginning, she was still complaining in her heart about Feiying's inability to do things. Not only was the information about Miss Shen and Miss Pei wrong, but even the news that Mrs. Pei was critically ill could be passed on to the master. She really didn't know what he was doing.

After making such a low-level mistake, isn't he afraid that his master will be angry and make him stay in the mountains for the rest of his life?

But as she listened, she felt that something was very wrong. Madam Pei was so hostile to her own master that she even used words like short-lived ghost. Ghost marriages and ghost concubines were not things that the prince could control. This was his father's will. Did he have the guts to scold his father?

Does she dare?

You really pick on the weak. Do you really think your master is a soft persimmon and anyone can speak rudely to him?

No, Madam Pei is Mr. Xie’s aunt. If the master knew that Mr. Xie’s aunt scolded him like that, wouldn’t the two good brothers break up?

Before Ling Shuang had time to observe a moment of silence for Xie Moxuan, she heard Xie Leqing urging "Pei Wanwan" to run faster, and then the two of them argued for a while, and finally both burst into tears.

Ling Shuang was horrified. Miss Pei knew the secret of the master's fake death. No, this matter had to be reported to the master immediately!

The mother and daughter in the house were still hugging each other and crying. Shen Wanwan had long forgotten that Ling Shuang was waiting outside the house. She never expected that while they were acting out their mother-daughter love in the house, Ling Shuang was listening and complaining outside, and finally turned around to report the news.

After an unknown amount of time, the mother and daughter finally stopped crying, and Shen Wanwan finally remembered Ling Shuang outside the house. But when she opened the door and called out several times, no one answered.

Shen Wanwan's heart skipped a beat. It was over. She had forgotten that walls have ears. Ling Shuang must have gone to tip off the person.

She thought again and realized that there was no point in worrying at this point. At worst, when the King of Qin came to kill her with a big knife, she would insist that Ling Shuang was hysterical and had misheard.

Well, let’s do it!

………………

Ling Shuang: Are you polite?

Pei Wanwan: Wanwan is already polite enough. If it were me, this is not just a simple hysteria.

………………

"Mother, during the time I was away from the manor, did Mr. Pei come here with his concubine, Ms. Chen?"

Xie Leqing's face froze, and he nodded slightly. "Yes, I'm here. I'm asking for trouble by coming here. Isn't it just that her daughter is the principal wife of a dead man? The person is almost dead, what's the point of being the principal wife? She talks as if others are very rare."

Shen Wanwan understood in her heart that her mother's health had suddenly taken a turn for the worse because they had come here on purpose to stimulate her, so the chronic poison in her mother's body was related to them.

However, we still need to investigate whether it was Chen Yuanfang or Pei Bailiang who did it.

She didn't want to place her suspicion on Pei Bailiang. After all, he was Xie Leqing's husband and Pei Wanwan's biological father. Normally, he wouldn't have the intention to kill his wife.

But Pei Bailiang is not normal!

He is such a scumbag that if his character were graded, his score would definitely be below zero.

A father who can actively suggest that his legitimate daughter be buried with his wife is definitely the worst kind of scumbag father. Murdering his wife just to make way for his concubine is an extremely reasonable motive.

"Mother, they came here suddenly, could it be just to show off that Pei Jiaojiao can be buried with the Qin Prince's concubine?"

Xie Leqing scoffed, "Of course not, they just came here to piss me off to death, but I won't let them do what they want."

Shen Wanwan lowered her eyes. Who was so angry that she almost died? If your adopted daughter hadn't come back quickly, you would have died by now.

"But mother, we have moved to this village for seven years and have had nothing to do with them. Why do they still hold such a grudge against us and want us to die?"

"Why else could it be? It's because I'm their legal wife. If I knew that my cousins ​​were already pregnant before I married them, I would never have entered the Pei family. It really pissed me off."
