Liang Yuanque didn't know how the rest of the Lin family died, but from what he heard, it was definitely not just the young master who died in the Lin family.
If other people died suddenly like this, then it would be necessary to shovel open the walls of all the rooms and take a look.
But he remembered the story that the elder brother told about the Lin family's second master on the train. It didn't sound like the old master died of poisoning.
"Three years ago, several rooms in our house were renovated, including this one."
The old lady sighed and tried hard to calm down her emotions, but she was still old after all, and her neck was shaking uncontrollably.
"The repair work at that time was left to the Wang family."
"Wang family?" Liang Yuanque squinted his eyes and said to himself, grandma, you should be more clear. How could I know which family the Wang family is when I first come here!
Fortunately, the third lady was very considerate. She leaned down slightly and whispered in Liang Yuanque's ear,
"The Wang family is my sister-in-law's natal family."
Hey, it seems like the Wang family has a motive for committing the crime!
"Why are they doing this? When did our Lin family mistreat them?" The old lady was so angry that she clenched her fist and hammered the table hard.
Liang Yuanque thought to himself, why? Didn't you know what you did? Girls were killed in such an inexplicable way.
As a result, the next moment, what the third lady said to him shocked him.
"Sir, when the wing was being renovated, nothing happened to my sister-in-law."
Liang Yuanque raised his eyebrows in surprise. It was impossible to smear such a large area of blood quietly and could only be hidden in a big event like decoration.
If it hadn't been painted during the renovation, what chance would there have been of painting it later?
But if the paintings were put in during that renovation, and the third lady’s sister-in-law was still alive during the renovation, does the Wang family have the right to harm their own girls as well?
Hiss, if you insist on saying so...
Bah, that doesn’t make sense at all!
If the Wang family wants to be exterminated, they should kill their own uncle, and even the girls in their own family. What a fool, are you brain-blind?
Just as Liang Yuanque was thinking about it, he saw the old lady in front of him suddenly turned red. She stretched out her hand to touch her chest, making a "ho ho" sound in her throat, as if she was out of breath.
The third young lady rushed to help her grandma, and the maid next to the old lady also hurriedly called for the doctor.
The main hall was in chaos for a while. Liang Yuanque pulled Zhuang Youjie to hide aside, not knowing what he should do.
While others had no time to pay attention to them, Zhuang Youjie quietly asked Liang Yuanque,
"Since my sister-in-law was still alive during the decoration, who would that portrait be?"
Yes, this is also a problem.
Liang Yuanque pondered, thinking of the corpse that was suppressed under the stone tower.
The Lin family felt that the sister-in-law was not the only one who died unjustly. The person who painted this portrait of a woman with blood was fighting for another unjust soul who had passed away in the deep courtyard.
Thinking of this, Liang Yuanque sighed, "We have to ask the Lin family for details."
Fortunately, they came here as Feng Shui masters this time, and when the time comes, they can pretend to be mysterious and frightened, so they won't be afraid that no one will tell the truth.
After the old lady was settled, the servant named Fan San whom they had met before took the orders of the third lady and took the two of them to the guest room to rest first.
The guest room is located in the west alley opposite the young master's room. As soon as Zhuang Youjie entered the door, he started touching the wall, fearing that there was mercury buried underneath.
Liang Yuanque sniffed around the room to tell him not to waste his efforts.
"So, there is no mercury in this room?" Zhuang Youjie was surprised.
However, Liang Yuanque immediately poured cold water on him, "There are also some in this room, but if we stay here for a short time, we won't be affected."
Although he said this, Zhuang Youjie still couldn't control his fear.
Mercury is colorless and odorless, and what Liang Yuanque smells is the smell of old blood.
It stands to reason that as time goes by, the toxicity of mercury gradually evaporates into the air and will slowly disappear with ventilation.
By the time the young master gradually entered the "mercury room", it had been several years since it was at its freshest. Although the toxicity was still there, it was definitely not as strong as before.
If a healthy adult had moved in, perhaps something would not have happened so quickly, but unfortunately the young master was a child and had poor resistance, so he died in confusion.
Liang Yuanque leaned back on his chair, wondering who could lay such a complicated and vicious plot.
Not long after, someone knocked lightly on their door.
"Mr. Liang, are you in the room?"
This voice is Miss San.
Liang Yuanque quickly stood up and invited her in.
"Miss Third, if you don't come, I will go find you."
At this time, the third lady did not hold a fan in her hand, and her beautiful appearance was completely displayed in front of Liang Yuanque.
Liang Yuanque had seen too many people and many women in his life, but the appearance of the third lady was definitely among the best in his experience.
"Miss Third, your fan..."
"It's just for others to see." The third lady pushed him away, walked straight into the room, pulled up a chair and sat down.
This chic style is completely different from his previous appearance.
Although some people are born within the rules, they may not necessarily place their hearts within the rules.
Looking at her appearance, Liang Yuanque couldn't help but lower his head and smile.
"Grandma is getting older, and I now take care of many of the family affairs. If you have anything, sir, just ask me."
Liang Yuanque nodded, "Then let me ask Third Miss, was your brother and sister-in-law the first person to die in the Lin family?"
The third lady sighed, "No, this conspiracy happened long before we noticed it."
Speaking of which, the first person to die in the Lin family was the old man of the Lin family.
The old man died quietly one night. He was already old, so it was only a matter of time.
What's more, the death was sudden, which was regarded as a happy mourning for people of this age, and the Lin family did not care.
Later, while burning the seven-day paper for the old man, the son of the third lady's second brother's family suddenly disappeared for some reason, and was later found to have fallen off a cliff and broken his neck.
It was really hard to accept that a white-haired person gave a black-haired person a gift, but it was just treated as an accident.
What really started to arouse alarm was the death of the third lady’s second brother.
After his son died, the second brother disappeared for a whole day, and then mysteriously appeared in his son's coffin.
His eyes were wide open, his whole face was bruised, and his mouth was open wide, as if he wanted to scream, but he didn't.
What's even more weird is that one of his hands is stretched out and one finger is pointing forward, but he can't press it down no matter how hard he presses it.
The situation was as if he had encountered some ghost before his death, and his life had been taken away at the moment of surprise!
