It’s great to be reborn and marry your brother, but your ex-husband cried and called you sister-in-l

Ganoderma lucidum was found in a woods on the outskirts of the city.

When he found it, Ganoderma fainted and fell unconscious at the entrance of the jungle.

The secret guard who went to look for her carefully inspected her whole body and found that there were traces of being hit on the back of her head, and they were not light enough. The secret guard did not wake her up even if she moved.

Just when Ganoderma lucidum was brought back to the Hou Mansion, another news came from the old housekeeper——

A servant who was serving Zuo Ningshuang disappeared yesterday.

The old housekeeper took people to find the place where he lived, but took nothing with him. He only found a wooden stick with blood stains under the bed.

Everything is very clear -

The fact that Zuo Ningshuang was drugged yesterday has something to do with this missing servant. He is even very likely to be the murderer who harmed Ganoderma lucidum...

When Gu Baiyu got the news, he had already washed up and had breakfast. When he heard the news, his face turned ugly.

"What are you talking about? This person actually has something to do with me?"

The old housekeeper shook his head quickly: "It's not that it has anything to do with you, madam... but..."

The old housekeeper glanced at Xiao Yanlin with embarrassment.

Xiao Yanlin calmly filled a new bowl of porridge for Gu Baiyu and said calmly: "If you have anything to say, just say it."

The old housekeeper quickly lowered his head: "Yes!"

"The missing servant's name is Zhang Ming. Before coming to the Marquis' Mansion, he worked as a servant in the Prime Minister's Mansion. He was just a miscellaneous servant of the outer court. It's natural that Madam has no impression of him."

The old housekeeper continued: "I asked clearly this morning that Zhang Ming was originally a servant of the Prime Minister's Mansion. After less than three months, his old mother became seriously ill, so he quit his job at the Prime Minister's Mansion. Go home and take care of her."

At this moment, Lingyu also walked in.

She has a good relationship with Ganoderma lucidum. As soon as Ganoderma lucidum was found and brought back to the house, she immediately went to see it. Her eyes were red now and she looked like she had been crying.

After hearing the old housekeeper's words, Lingyu frowned.

"Zhang Ming...this slave seems to have some impression..."

Gu Baiyu put down the spoon in his hand, "No matter what, go to the Prime Minister's Mansion in person today and ask what's going on!"

"Yes."

Lingyu was happy that her little sisters were safe and immediately took the order and left.

After everyone left, the indifference on Gu Baiyu's face disappeared. There was a bit of anxiety in his eyes, and he stood up very neatly.

"I have to go see Ganoderma lucidum."

Xiao Yanlin gave her a considerate hand: "I'm lucky that everything is fine. I've already seen a doctor. It's nothing serious."

Gu Baiyu shook his head, with some annoyance in his tone: "She suffered this disaster because she was working for me. I have to go and see."

Xiao Yanlin originally wanted to persuade her not to worry too much, but looking at Bai Yu's anxious look, he just whispered: "You are kind-hearted, then go and have a look."

Now Lingzhi is an important witness to yesterday's farce. She has been moved to the guest room to rest, and there is a special nursing home guarding her outside.

Gu Baiyu first went to ask the doctor about Ganoderma lucidum's injury, and felt relieved when he learned that it was indeed no serious problem.

But seeing the usually clever and eccentric little girl lying lifeless at this moment, her face pale and lifeless, I felt uncomfortable in my heart, but more importantly, I was angry.

No matter what Gu Ruanruan wants to do this time, it has touched Gu Baiyu's bottom line!

Lingyu's heart is full of Ganoderma lucidum, and it goes away just as quickly as it comes back.

When he came back, he had anger and confusion on his face.

"How's it going? Did you ask clearly?" Gu Baiyu asked.

Lingyu nodded, "I've asked clearly."

Just asking her clearly made her feel ridiculous!

But he said that Zhang Ming was quite clever, but his hands and feet were not very clean. He initially worked as an errand in the inner courtyard in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Later, the person in charge found that this person was too tactful and his hands and feet were not very clean. However, since there was no evidence, he had to send the person to the outer courtyard to do rough work.

More than two months later, Zhang Ming said that his mother was seriously ill. He burst into tears and begged the supervisor for help.

At that time, Mrs. Gu listened and felt soft-hearted. She was also moved that Zhang Ming was so sad for his mother.

So I gave him more money and told him not to worry and just treat his family well.

That Zhang Ming had money in his hands, but instead of saving his mother immediately, he took it all to a gambling house and gambled it away!

At first, no one knew about this. Zhang Ming took advantage of Mrs. Gu's soft-heartedness and went to the Prime Minister's Mansion three times to ask for money. Later, the manager felt something was wrong and went to his home to take a look, only to find that his old mother was already dying. I haven’t even taken a sip of medicine!

As for Zhang Ming, the manager also learned from his neighbors that he was addicted to gambling. He had been in the gambling house all day these past few days and never returned home!

The manager in charge told Mrs. Gu about this, and Mrs. Gu was furious. When Zhang Ming came to ask for money again because his old mother was seriously ill, she beat him out.

At that time, Zhang Ming's mother had already died, but Zhang Ming was still at the door saying that the Prime Minister's Office would not save her.

Fortunately, the Prime Minister's Mansion has a good reputation and no one believes it.

"My servant remembers clearly that when my wife ordered the steward to drive the person out, you prayed for the master and his wife in the temple. You stayed for a few days and were not in the house, so you didn't know. But the second lady...doesn't know , Aunt Gu said that the manager was cruel and secretly gave money to Zhang Ming!"

Gu Baiyu was thoughtful. If this was the case, it would make sense for Zhang Ming to help Gu Ruanruan do this.

But there is still a problem...

"This person caused such a thing in the Prime Minister's Mansion. How could he enter the Marquis Mansion as an errand so easily?"

Hearing this inquiry, the old housekeeper suddenly broke into a cold sweat: "Back to Madam, this man later changed his name. His original name was Zhang Mingyue, but now it is changed to Zhang Ming. In addition, he gave the slave money and behaved very honestly. That’s why I concealed it. But this matter is indeed the result of my negligence, and I am willing to accept the punishment!”

Gu Baiyu did not relent this time because of the old housekeeper's qualifications, and immediately said: "I will fine you three months' monthly payment, can you accept it?"

The old housekeeper knelt down quickly: "Thank you madam for your understanding! I am willing to be punished!"

Once you understand the cause and effect of the incident, the next thing will be much easier to investigate.

Xiao Yanlin understood Gu Baiyu's thoughts very well. When he discovered that Zhang Ming was missing, he had already sent someone to investigate his current situation.

This man entered the government not long ago. Before entering the government, he owed a pile of gambling debts. Later, he paid off some of them every month, and the amount was much more than the monthly payment he could receive.

Apparently, someone was helping him. Que did not help him completely, but controlled Zhang Ming in this way.

Moreover, Zhang Ming's identity is very sensitive. When it comes to the Gu and Xiao families, if one of them is not good, Gu Baiyu himself will suffer.

Until this moment, Gu Baiyu also looked at Gu Ruanruan with admiration.

Gu Ruanruan made a good move this time!

They are both sisters who came from the Prime Minister's Palace. If Zhang Ming was instigated by others, Gu Baiyu himself can't escape the relationship. This is forcing her to expose the matter and not delve into it further!

Otherwise, both of their sisters would be suspected!

Thinking of this, Gu Baiyu narrowed his glasses: "We must find this Zhang Mingcai quickly."

Xiao Yanlin nodded: "We have sent people to look for him."

Gu Baiyu came back to his senses and felt a little grateful: "Thanks to Mr. Hou, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

"We are both husband and wife, why are you talking about this?"

While the two were chatting in low voices, the servants had already withdrawn with a look.

There were only two people left in the room, and Gu Baiyu sighed melancholy: "Master Marquis, was I too harsh on the old housekeeper just now?"

Xiao Yanlin put his arm around her shoulders, pressed a kiss between her eyebrows, and tried to use his lips and tongue to smooth the man's frown that had been frowning for a long time.

"He can understand your good intentions, don't worry."

At this time, Lingyu, who had exited together, followed the old housekeeper and asked tentatively: "Old housekeeper, you were fined three months' monthly payment, can you blame my wife?"

She asked so bluntly that the old housekeeper was slightly startled and then laughed.

"How dare I blame Madam? It's too late for me to thank her!"

Lingyu was a little curious.

The old housekeeper had a transcendent status in the Hou Mansion. I heard that when Xiao Yanlin was away on an expedition, if there was any major matter to be decided in the house, even Xiao Ruoyun would ask the old housekeeper what he meant and make a decision after discussion.

Moreover, she has been in the mansion for so long, and she has never seen Xiao Yanlin say harsh words to the old housekeeper. Last time, he said that he would fine the old housekeeper a monthly fee, but then he turned around and sent a lot of good medicinal materials for health, which were much more expensive than the monthly money. .

Now this matter is due to Zhang Ming's cunning. The old housekeeper was indeed negligent, but Gu Baiyu insulted the old housekeeper in front of everyone, and even punished Xiao Yanlin without authorization. The old housekeeper is still... Thank you Her wife?

Lingyu was confused.
