Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 281
Chapter 281 Invisible Murder
The sky gradually darkened. The thin fog covered the entire world with a layer of silver sand. Under the illumination of the lamps, it emitted a faint halo. It was like a shy and timid girl, extremely shy.
The faint green Butterfly Kiss Scattered Flower Curtain was opened by a plain hand. Yun Xiao stuck out a head from the curtain, her eyes flashing with a faint confusion.
Hearing that there was not a single movement in the room, Yun Xiao blinked her eyes, “Chun Lan?”
As soon as her voice fell, the door creaked and a string of footsteps quickly entered.
Yun Xiao looked at Qing Mo who walked in and blinked, “Where’s Chun Lan?”
“Chun Lan is resting. Is Miss going to get up now?” Qing Mo quickly walked forward, took out the clothes that Yun Xiao would wear later from the screen, and walked in front of Yun Xiao to serve Yun Xiao.
Just now, Yun Xiao felt that something was wrong in her heart, and now she felt that something was wrong even more.
She stared at Qing Mo’s face for a long time, but she did not see anything strange from Qing Mo’s face. She could only look at the door. The entire courtyard was quiet, but there was still no other sound. “Chun Lan is resting? Where are the others?”
Normally, it was Chun Lan and Chun Mei who served her to dress, but after she woke up for a while, there was still no trace of these two people, so Yun Xiao had no choice but to suspect them.
When Qing Mo saw that Yun Xiao was looking at him directly, he did not intend to hide anything. “I’ll let Chun Lan guard the two of them.”
Although Yun Xiao was still surprised, she obediently put on her clothes and wore a simple bun before opening the door and heading outside.
Who knew that with this look, Yun Xiao’s face darkened.
Not for anything else, there were quite a few people lying in this courtyard. These people were the servants of the manor, as well as the mothers and other servants of the manor.
Yun Xiao’s face darkened as she looked at Qing Mo, who was standing not far from her. “What’s going on?”
Qing Mo’s expression remained the same, as if he didn’t see Yun Xiao’s gloomy expression at all. He said respectfully, “When the girl was resting, these people came to disturb her, so this servant clicked on their acupoints.”
When Yun Xiao heard this, she felt a headache. She didn’t know whether she should praise Qing Mo or be angry, “Why did these people come to my Rose Courtyard?”
She remembered that this Rose Courtyard was not that attractive. Since these people had come, something big must have happened in the manor.
Yun Xiao remembered that Yun Maozhe was still sick today, and her expression immediately became even gloomier. “What exactly happened in the manor?”
“The third girl committed suicide, But she didn’t die, The baby in her stomach is gone, These people wanted to invite the girl to see the third girl, This servant thought that Fourth Young Lady was just a girl who hadn’t left the pavilion. How would she know about this matter? That’s why she didn’t let them report it to her. This servant was afraid that the commotion caused by these people would be too big, so she pointed at their acupuncture points. “Qing Mo’s expression was reasonable. I looked at Yun Xiao for your sake.
After hearing Qing Mo’s words, Yun Xiao was slightly stunned.
Yun Yao’s child is gone?
It can’t be?
She had always treated the child in her belly as a precious treasure. She also treated the child in her belly as the only life-saving talisman. Now, how could Yun Yao commit suicide?
This matter was wrong! Very wrong.
Yun Xiao faintly sensed an unusual aura, but she couldn’t tell what was wrong.
“How did Yun Yao commit suicide?”
Qing Mo said calmly, “Third Young Lady hanged herself. However, a servant rushed in and saved Yun Yao when he heard a noise in the room. However, that servant was also stupid. He did not pull Yun Yao down. He stood on the stool and broke the rope. However, when Yun Yao fell, he did not catch it, so he fell and miscarried.”
Yun Xiao frowned when she heard this. Yun Xiao wanted to hang herself to arouse the sympathy of her father and the others?
But because he was lucky, he killed the child that he had worked so hard to obtain?
“Now, do my parents know about this news?” Yun Xiao said as she strode out. Right now, her father’s body was still not well, so she could not waste her time.
Qing Mo followed closely behind Yun Xiao and said softly, “Master and Madam already know, so we have already gone to Third Young Lady’s courtyard. I wonder who spread the news on purpose. Old Madam and Madam Sun also know that we have already gone to Third Young Lady’s courtyard.”
Right now, in the entire Yun Manor, only her family’s young lady and Fifth Young Master were unaware of this matter.
Of course, in the beginning, Qing Mo had thought that Yun Yao was faking it. Who knew that Yun Yao would really hang herself after inquiring about it later?
However, when Qing Mo saw that he had already pointed out acupoints to many people, he decided to point out the acupoints of all the people who had followed him.
Yun Xiao sighed. Looking at the people in the courtyard, she said loudly, “Have you solved their acupoints? Where are Chun Lan and Chun Mei?”
“I put them in the house.” Later on, there were really many people who came. Chun Lan wanted to inform Yun Xiao that Qing Mo would not let them go. And Qing Mo was a person who was not good at moving his mouth, but only good at making moves. Thus, she later tapped Chun Lan and the others’ acupoints.
Yun Xiao’s scalp tightened. With such a martial artist by her side, Yun Xiao was speechless. “Let Chun Lan and the others out first, and then let them go as well.”
After she finished speaking, she stood in the courtyard and looked at the moon that had slowly appeared above her head. Her eyebrows were picturesque and her eyes were deep. She did not know what she was thinking.
When Qing Mo saw this, he returned to the house where Chun Lan and the others were and untied the acupoints for everyone. However, Qing Mo did not untied the acupoints for these people in the courtyard.
Chun Lan and the others quickly ran out of the room. After coming out, they greeted Yun Xiao respectfully and respectfully called out, “Miss.”
Yun Xiao’en said, then said to Chun Lan and Qing Mo, “You two can go out with me.”
Qing Mo and Chun Lan immediately nodded and they quickly walked out.
On the way, Yun Xiao knocked and observed Chun Lan for a while. Seeing that there was no anger in Chun Lan’s eyes, she was relieved.
However, Yun Xiao quickly understood Chun Lan’s thoughts. Perhaps this girl was hoping that Qing Mo would point her acupoint!
Together, they quickly arrived outside Yun Yao’s courtyard and saw that there were already quite a few people surrounding the courtyard.
The light emitted by the tall red lanterns shone on everyone’s faces. They could clearly see the expressions of anxiety, embarrassment, and joy on everyone’s faces.
Yun Xiao continued to walk forward. The servants surrounding her immediately discovered her existence. They respectfully greeted Yun Xiao and said, “Greetings, Fourth Young Lady.”
Yun Xiao nodded at the crowd and slowly continued walking into the courtyard.
After walking into the room, he saw the person standing in front of the door.
Madam Yuan sat on a soft chair, his eyes staring at the room. Madam Sun looked at the room anxiously. Yun Maozhe stood not far away with a stern face. His obscure face made it impossible to see what he really thought.
Compared to these people, only one person was kneeling on the ice-cold floor. When that thin figure was reflected in Yun Xiao’s eyes, she felt heartache filling her eyes.
Yun Xiao quickly stepped forward and walked to Madam Lu’s side. She handed the cloak on her shoulder to Madam Lu and said worriedly, “Mother, why are you kneeling? Get up quickly!”
As she spoke, she took the initiative to support Madam Lu. Gujing Wubo’s eyes were filled with suppressed anger and disapproval.
It was already in the middle of December, and the weather was extremely cold. Especially after nightfall, the cold wind blew on her body, and she felt as if there were needles stabbing her body. But now, Madam Lu was kneeling on the cold floor, not a single cloak on her body. Her entire face was pale from the cold, and her lips were even a patch of purple.
She supported Madam Lu’s body and realized that Madam Lu did not have any warmth on her body. Her tentacles were ice-cold.
The ice-like chill entered Yun Xiao’s palm, causing her body to stiffen slightly unconsciously, but she did not let go of the hand that was supporting Madam Lu.
Because of Yun Maozhe’s illness, Madam Lu had been worried about her father’s safety ever since she woke up early in the morning. She had stayed by her father’s side for so long, and her body was already exhausted. Now, she knelt on the ground again.
Yun Xiao’s heart was filled with anger.
Before Yun Xiao could help Madam Lu up, she heard a cold laugh from behind her, “Yun Xiao, when you saw me, you didn’t bow and instead went to help a guilty person. What is the reason for that?”
When Yun Xiao heard this voice, she knew that the one speaking was Madam Yuan, and she was very unhappy in her heart.
When Madam Lu heard Madam Yuan’s voice, her eyes became more anxious. She hurriedly broke free from Yun Xiao’s hand and said, “Xiaoxiao, mother is fine, you don’t need to worry.”
However, she had already knelt on the ice-cold floor for two hours. Her body had long since become ice-cold, without the slightest trace of vitality. As she spoke, she felt that her voice was like ice, and her body couldn’t help but tremble.
Coupled with the fact that she had broken free from Yun Xiao’s hand, her body had long since stiffened. With this struggle, her entire body fell backwards uncontrollably.
Behind him was a vase that contained flowers and plants. In the middle of the vase was a sharp jade hairpin that emitted silver light.
Yun Xiao saw Madam Lu fall backwards. In the blink of an eye, she happened to see the jade hairpin. Her expression was extremely embarrassed and her expression changed slightly. She tightly grabbed Madam Lu’s body and said loudly, “Mother, be careful!”
Madam Lu wanted to stretch out her hand to support her body, but her body was like ice. She could not feel a trace of strength, so how could she dodge the jade hairpin behind her?
Seeing that Madam Lu was about to hit the jade hairpin, the jade hairpin was extremely sharp. If it fell on it, it would definitely pierce through a person’s brain.
Yun Xiao’s eyes widened. This time, because Madam Lu had been blowing in the wind for too long, her entire body was cold and her body was heavy. Yun Xiao actually could not hold her body. She shouted loudly, “Qing Mo!”
When Qing Mo heard Yun Xiao’s voice, he pointed his toes on the ground and flew to the side of Yun Xiao and Madam Lu. When Madam Lu was only an inch away from the silver hairpin, he finally grabbed Madam Lu’s body.
Seeing that Qing Mo had finally pulled Madam Lu back, Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. She helped Madam Lu up together with Qing Mo. Yun Xiao gave Madam Lu the gold-gilded warming stove that Qing Mo had dropped to the ground. “Mother, warm up your body first.”
Mrs. Lu felt a trace of warmth coming from her hand, and her expression became slightly stunned. The corners of her eyes slowly became moist, but she was unable to say a word.
At this moment, Yun Xiao turned around and walked behind Madam Lu. She reached out and picked up the silver hairpin hidden in the flowers and leaves. She held it in her hand and placed a cushion on it. She looked at Madam Sun and Madam Yuan with a smile that was not a smile.
Then, under their somewhat guilty gazes, they threw the jade hairpin in front of Madam Yuan and Madam Sun!
