Nanny Chun's choking sobs suddenly stopped, and she said in horror: "Miss, you can't say such things carelessly."

"I'm not talking nonsense." Qin Shu said coldly with a solemn expression, "Dad has hired many guards in the mansion over the years, and they are very skilled. Dad has encountered bandits and robbers when he was away from home, but he always managed to escape unscathed."

She looked at Aunt Chun seriously, "But this time, I saw that both my father and mother were killed with one strike, which shows that their martial arts skills are extremely strong. The guards that my father brought with him are no match at all."

Aunt Chun burst into tears instantly, "Someone is trying to kill me for money!"

Qin Shu's cold eyes were like ice knives. "Mammy, think about it. Now that our parents are gone, who will benefit from all this property?"

"Second Master?!"

Qin Shu said coldly: "So, even if Second Uncle is not the mastermind, he must be an accomplice."

Nanny Chun turned pale with fear. "He is the master's brother! Over the years, the master has been very kind to the West Mansion. The food, clothing, and daily necessities of their mansion are all..."

Halfway through his words, he froze again.

Qin Shu asked, "Mammy, have you thought of anything?"

Nanny Chun said bitterly, "Before, when the mistress first married into the family, the master's business had not yet taken off. In the second year, his accomplice ran away with the capital, and he had nowhere to borrow money. Fortunately, the mistress had a generous dowry, and she sold almost all of it to help the master with his business."

"In the third year after the master and his wife got married, with the wife's dowry as capital, the master's business quickly picked up and he made his first profit. I still remember that time, the master made more than 10,000 taels!"

Nanny Chun mentioned the past with a proud look on her face, "The first thing the master did was to redeem all of the wife's dowry."

Nanny Chun seemed to think of something disdainful and curled her lips slightly, "At that time, there was still the old lady, and the second master had just got married. The old lady wanted the master to split the money in half with the second master's family, but the master did not agree."

"Not long after, the old lady died. As soon as the old lady was buried, the second master separated from the master."

"Later, the master made more and more money, so he bought these two houses and moved the second master's family from the old house."

As Madam Chun spoke, her voice began to tremble and her face turned paler, "Not long after we bought the house, the wife became pregnant. But within four months, the baby was inexplicably aborted, and it was a fully grown male fetus."

Nanny Chun wiped away her tears, "After that, the wife never got pregnant again. It was not until the seventh year of the master and his wife's marriage that the master began to take his wife with him when he went out. He would go to any temple and pray to the Buddha. He also found many miraculous doctors to treat the wife's health. Finally, in the ninth year, she had a daughter."

"The master felt sorry for his wife following him around everywhere, so he let her stay at home to take care of the baby. Unexpectedly, within eight months, the wife suddenly had her period. When the girl was born, she was as big as a cat, and the wife almost lost her life and was injured."

Since then, my mother drank countless medicinal soups, but her stomach never felt any pain.

Qin Shu clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palms.

"It was also from that year that the Madam recorded most of the income of the mansion in her private account."

New shops and land properties would be added to the public property, but compared with what the wife had in her private possessions, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were a drop in the bucket.

Nanny Chun wiped her tears and choked with sobs, "Originally, the master and the mistress had discussed that after the young lady got married, the master would stop doing business and take the mistress to travel around and let her see this beautiful country. Who would have thought..."

Qin Shu's mind was filled with lightning and thunder.

She suddenly grabbed Madam Chun's hand and said in a trembling voice, "Madam, you can't leave the house. Stay with me."

Nanny Chun thought about it and understood: The young lady is worried that someone will kill her to silence her!

But Miss is still in danger...

We were all going to die anyway, so we had better die together. Who knows, if we held on together, we might be able to find a way out!

Qin Shu now understood why her second uncle said that she was crazy.

After her parents died suddenly, the daughter went insane and always felt that her parents were murdered by someone else.

Even if she went out to appeal for justice for her parents, who would believe the words of a madman?

Qin Shu subconsciously touched the bracelet on her wrist, but found nothing: Where is her bracelet? !

Her heart skipped a beat and she suddenly raised her wrist, only to find it was empty; the bracelet was gone!

Was it stolen?

Or did it just break?

wrong!

Qin Shu herself was just in that space for such a short time, and there were only two maids in the room. It was impossible for them to take off her bracelet without permission.

Qin Shu faced the candlelight calmly and observed her wrist carefully, only to find a faint red mark on her wrist.

It's like a rouge birthmark on the wrist.

She breathed a sigh of relief: this magical bracelet had actually become part of her bones and blood!

From the moment she woke up last night until now, everything that happened to her became more bizarre than the last.

But think about it, could anything be more bizarre than her coming back to life and returning to five years ago?

Thinking of this, Qin Shu felt relieved.

In the space, she took off the cotton cloth on her forehead in front of the spring water, and there was no visible scar on her smooth forehead.

Thinking about her previous life, this scar really disfigured her. The deep scar on her forehead was like a sharp sword, hanging diagonally above her right eyebrow.

I don’t know how many times I was ridiculed by Liu Baocai’s family.

Now that the scar has healed, Qin Shu thought about it and the only thing she could think of was the two sips of spring water she drank.

She looked at the bloody wound on Nanny Chun's forehead and finally did not take out the spring water for her to drink.

Such a secret was too shocking, and she subconsciously felt that this secret should not be told to anyone.

But I couldn’t just watch Nanny Chun get hurt like this.

After thinking for a while, Qin Shu got off the couch and took out a small box from the box. Inside was some medicine, clean cotton cloth and other things.

It was when her forehead was injured that Xiao Tao didn't return it in time after using it and just left it on the closet.

It just happened to come in handy this time.

Qin Shu turned her back to the two maids and quietly drew some spring water out, dripping it onto the cotton cloth. Then she said to Aunt Chun, "Please sit down, Aunt. I'll bandage your wound first."

How could Nanny Chun agree? "Oh, how can this be done? How can an old servant trouble the young lady, old..."

"Madam, please sit down." Qin Shu gently pressed Madam Chun's shoulder and asked her to sit down. "Even if we don't look at the current situation, you deserve it for serving mother for decades."

Nanny Chun sat on the stool with tears in her eyes.

Qin Shu used a clean handkerchief to wipe off the blood stains around the wound, sprinkled medicine on it, applied cotton cloth soaked in spring water to the wound, and then bandaged it with a thin strip of cotton cloth.

While bandaging the wound, Nanny Chun told Qin Shu about the rude doctor who tried to force his way in.

Regardless of whether it was madness or destroying her innocence, the second uncle's ultimate goal was to take over everything in the East Mansion in a natural way.

Including Qin Shu and her mother’s private property.
