The Miracle Doctor's Two-Faced Toddler Novel - Chapter 530
530 Ending (2)
Like most of the servants in the manor, Old Madam also thought that the Second Old Master had gone to the villa to recuperate. To her, everything was just a few accidents. Yu Shaoqing had returned alive, and Helian Beiming had also survived. Since the accident had been remedied, there was no need to tear open the healing wound.
“Do you want to tell Uncle about Madam Tan and Helian Sheng?” Yu Wan asked Yan Jiuchao before falling asleep.
“About what?” Yan Jiuchao asked as he played with her hair.
Yu Wan felt that the strand of hair he was holding was not beautiful enough, so she picked a new strand and stuffed it into his hand. Then, she said, “There’s something going on between Madam Tan and Helian Sheng.”
!!
Yan Jiuchao paused and said, “It won’t be too late to talk when the time is right.”
Yu Wan thought about it and felt that it made sense. Such a big thing had happened in the West Manor, and Helian Beiming needed enough energy to clean up the mess. He was still injured, and Old Cui had complained to her a few times during the day. If he continued to work so hard, he would have eaten the Red Lingzhi for nothing.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day to pay respects to the ancestors. Yu Shaoqing brought the three brothers of the West Manor and made a long journey to the ancestral hall.
Back then, when Helian Beiming told the elders about the Second Old Master’s deeds, he also mentioned his younger brother. The elders originally had a trace of suspicion that Helian Beiming might have recognized the wrong person, but when they saw that face that was almost identical to Bull Egg, everyone was speechless.
The elders invited Yu Shaoqing to offer incense.
Yu Shaoqing lit one to three incense sticks in one go, perfectly depicting the scene of the East Manor offering all the incense while none was left for the West Manor.
The three brothers of the West Manor were dumbfounded by his actions.
After a day of offerings, Yu Shaoqing vaguely felt that he had been deceived by Helian Beiming. This was because paying respects to his ancestors was not tiring at all, and he did not need an entire day. So why did he lie to him to pay respects to his ancestors?
Yu Shaoqing frowned and fell into deep thought.
… .
On the other hand, Yu Wan pondered for a few days, but in the end, she still could not let go of the matter of Madam Tan and Helian Beiming. With her understanding of Yan Jiuchao, he would not spread rumors for no reason. He said that Madam Tan was the one who poisoned Helian Beiming, so she believed that the culprit must be Madam Tan. Thinking about it, it was not strange. After all, with Helian Beiming’s caution, ordinary people could not have any opportunity to attack him. Only when his beloved wife handed it over could he eat it without any doubts.
Perhaps it was not with food. After all, there were so many methods to poison. Smelling and wiping were both good strategies, but the premise was that the culprit could control Helian Beiming’s food and daily life.
Yu Wan could not figure out why Madam Tan did this.
Also, the matter of Helian Sheng being expelled from the family was also done by Madam Tan. She wondered if there was any connection between these two things.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Yu Wan knocked on Helian Beiming’s door.
“Come in.” Helian Beiming’s deep voice came from the room.
Yu Wan held the medicine bowl in one hand and pushed open the door with the other. “It’s time to take your medicine. How do you feel, Uncle? Are you feeling better?”
Helian Beiming sat up from the bed and put on a robe. He took the medicine bowl and said, “I’m much better. Just leave this kind of thing to the servants. Don’t work so hard.”
Yu Wan sat down on the stool in front of the bed and smiled. “It’s just a bowl of medicine. In the past, when I was in the countryside, I used to chop firewood and carry water to do farm work!”
Helian Beiming held the medicine bowl and sighed softly. “It’s all my fault for making you suffer.”
Yu Wan smiled and said, “I’m not here to complain to Uncle.”
“I know. You’re a good child,” Helian Beiming said with a nod.
Yu Wan did not comment. She smiled and said, “Drink the medicine quickly.”
Helian Beiming obediently drank the medicine. Yu Wan took the medicine bowl and handed him a small plate of candied plums. This was a habit of Yan Jiuchao after giving her medicine. She had learned it and used it on Helian Beiming.
Helian Beiming took a candied plum and fed it to his mouth in amusement. The sour and sweet taste spread between his teeth, instantly suppressing the bitter taste of the medicine.
“Is it delicious?” Yu Wan asked with a smile.
A trace of gentleness flashed across Helian Beiming’s eyes. “Delicious.”
Yu Wan handed over the plate again. “Can I ask Uncle something?”
“Go ahead.”
“It’s about Aunt.”
Helian Beiming’s hand that was holding the second candied plum paused.
Yu Wan sensed his rejection, but at this critical juncture, she couldn’t care less about retreating. The knife had already stabbed down, so she might as well cut through it all. “I’ve been in the manor for so long, so I’ve more or less heard about Aunt. Uncle, do you think it’s possible that your qigong deviation back then has something to do with Aunt?”
Helian Beiming put down the candied plum in his hand. He was silent for a long time. Then, he said in a low voice, “…She won’t harm me.”
“What about her betraying you? Didn’t she…” Yu Wan was halfway through her sentence when she realized that she had probably stabbed him too hard. She glanced at Helian Beiming without batting an eyelid and said tactfully, “Do you believe that she did something to let you down?”
Helian Beiming fell silent. This time, he did not say anything else until Yu Wan left. Yu Wan did not understand what Helian Beiming meant. It was said that women’s hearts were like needles at the bottom of the sea. Actually, men were sometimes very unpredictable.
After returning to the courtyard, Yu Wan told Yan Jiuchao about her conversation with Helian Beiming. “…I feel that Uncle trusts Madam Tan very much, but he doesn’t seem to… trust her, too.”
These words made Yu Wan feel conflicted. What she really wanted to say was that her uncle believed in Madam Tan’s character. Madam Tan would not do anything to hurt him, but her uncle did not seem to be sure of Madam Tan’s feelings for him.
Yan Jiuchao said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter what he thinks. The truth is with Madam Tan.”
Yu Wan nodded in enlightenment. “That’s true. In that case, it’s still necessary to see Madam Tan.”
However, according to Dong Xian’er, Madam Tan’s nunnery had been monitored. She had to think of a way to lure Madam Tan out.
