A wonderful family dinner ended up like this, which surprised everyone.
Li Xutang looked at his sister-in-law nervously. Mrs. Li shook her head at her and signaled her not to mess around.
No one expected that things would reach this point.
Originally, according to the plan, someone should step forward to bite her at this time. It was Jin Ling who poisoned the old lady.
After Jin Ling begged for mercy in pain, she had no choice but to reveal the instigator Si Ning.
Si Ning has always been reluctant to serve the sick. She didn't want to serve the sick, and she was worried about being stigmatized, so she poisoned the old lady with resentment. This is a reasonable thing.
As for the evidence, someone has already prepared it for them.
As long as someone is sent to the medicine shop to ask, they will know that Jin Ling has recently bought some poison, and this poison happens to be the kind that the old lady likes.
Jin Ling was Si Ning's former personal maid. No matter who brought her into the Ning'an Marquis Mansion, everyone would only think that she belonged to Si Ning.
She murdered the old lady and confessed to Si Ning. Everything would not arouse the suspicion of others.
After all, Jin Ling had lived in Si Ning's courtyard for so long and went to attend to Si Ning's illness. These things all happened in public.
This was the idea that Li Xutang and Mrs. Li came up with together.
Use Li Xutang to attract Si Ning's attention, and then arrange for an insignificant Jin Ling to appear.
The truth and lies made Si Ning unable to guess what they were going to do.
When the time comes, Si Ning will be unable to express her suffering, and her efforts to prove her innocence will be in vain.
Matricide is a serious crime!
The emperor values filial piety, and there is no chance that Si Ning will survive.
Not only her, but Lu Hanxiao will also be implicated.
It doesn't matter even if Lu Zhiyuan can't be touched for the time being, he can still vent his anger by discrediting him.
Everything is going smooth!
Jin Ling followed Si Ning back to her yard, and she took Si Ning's place to attend to the old lady's illness.
There are also many rumors about Si Ning in the house. The early preparations were going on step by step, but something went wrong at the last step.
Si Ning was poisoned!
Li Xutang's uneasiness continued to grow, and she felt as if she had fallen into Si Ning's trap again.
The doctor gave the old lady medicine, and she woke up leisurely.
"Who is it? Who gave me the poison? Apart from Si Ning, there is only one outsider in my room. All the maids next to me are mine and they will never do this."
The atmosphere in the room was a bit awkward.
The old lady fell into a coma before Si Ning was poisoned and did not know that Si Ning was also poisoned.
Lu Zhiyuan tried to comfort the old lady, "Mom, there is a misunderstanding here."
But the old lady refused to give up, "Misunderstanding, what misunderstanding, who could it be if it wasn't Si Ning? Only if she had this opportunity and she was unwilling to serve me would she attack me."
This was also arranged before. Li Xutang was responsible for convincing the old lady to deal with Si Ning with him.
The old lady was willing to give up her bones. Just because she had no expectations for Lu Baohu didn't mean she didn't hate him, and she had reasons to get rid of Si Ning.
"Are you going after that bitch? Are you stunned by her? I am your mother. Go and call that bitch here. Go quickly!"
Because of the excitement, the old lady's chest heaved and coughed violently.
Lu Zhiyuan was busy helping her, and at this moment, the maid's voice sounded outside the door.
"Old Madam, Second Master, and Third Young Master, please see me."
The old lady threw Lu Zhiyuan away and shouted outside.
"Let her come in and call me Xu Tang and Lin Rou. I want to expose that woman's hypocritical mask in front of everyone."
"Mom, sister-in-law, she..."
"Mother!"
Si Ning walked in and interrupted Lu Zhiyuan's words.
The old lady looked over following the sound and saw Si Ning's face turned pale. She was stunned for a moment. Before she could recover, she saw Si Ning kneeling on the ground.
"Please mother, let Si Ning make the decision and find the person who poisoned me."
"What are you talking about? Isn't it the poison you gave me?"
Si Ning's eyes suddenly turned red, "Mom, how could I do that? Murdering my mother is a serious crime and requires beheading. There is no way I would do that, and... I was also poisoned!"
"If I poison my mother, do I have to poison myself? The poison is very strong. If I can't control it, I will die. Why should I be afraid of taking risks?"
The doctor did say that this poison is very overbearing, and if it is discovered too late, it will definitely not be able to save his life.
There was really no need for Si Ning to put himself in danger. There was really no need for him to get involved in this just to get rid of an old lady.
The old lady was speechless for a moment and looked at Si Ning with a puzzled face.
"What do you mean?"
Lu Zhiyuan explained from the side, "Mom, my third brother and sister were poisoned by the same poison as you. They were also poisoned for several days. After you fainted, she also became ill."
"How is this possible?" The old lady felt as if she had been struck by lightning, her old face shaking up and down in shock, "That poison is not..."
"How about the poison? Mother, do you know who wants to harm you and me? Tell me quickly...
"I don't know where to go. It must be that you are usually evil-minded and being hated by others has caused me trouble."
At this time, the old lady still wanted to throw dirty water on Si Ning.
Si Ning did not deny it at all. Instead, he accepted the old lady's words generously.
"What mother said is true, so we must find the person who poisoned her. We must not let mother follow me and suffer injustice."
The old lady was so angry that she coughed even more violently. Lu Zhiyuan helped her breathe along the chest and deliberately tried to dissuade her, but he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
It happened that Li Xutang, Mrs. Li and Jiang Linrou arrived at this time, and even Wu Qianqian also left and returned.
"I am really worried about my mother. If this person is not caught for a day, Qian'er will not be able to sleep at night."
Everyone understood this. The poisoner could harm the old lady, so he would inevitably attack Wu Qianqian next.
After all, she had a valuable seed in her belly.
The old lady looked at her awkwardly and comforted her.
"Don't worry, I will let Zhiyuan investigate it in private, and I won't let the people behind it harm the people in the house."
"Why in private, mother, as you said, maybe I accidentally offended someone without knowing it. Now that the poison has been spread to you and me, how can we settle this matter secretly? I think it is best to report it to the official .”
Si Ning stood up, holding her heart, her face even paler due to excitement.
This looks so impressive.
Wu Qianqian also supported her, "You really need to be an official. Mother, I agree with the Third Young Mistress. This kind of thing must not be tolerated. No matter who it is, anyone who dares to murder you and the Third Young Mistress must not be treated lightly."
"That's enough, cough cough cough..."
The old lady coughed violently, and Wu Qianqian looked at her innocently.
"Mother, did Qian'er say something wrong? Qian'er is just worried about your safety..."
"How can I blame you? Mother naturally knows your thoughts. Mother, report it to the official. Otherwise, anyone can bully our Ning'an Marquis Mansion. If mother chooses to settle this matter, then I can only When Ning'an Hou Mansion moves out, I will never involve my mother in suffering with me because of my own reasons..."
