Chapter 49 Burial
Chapter 49 Burial
When Aunt Qian heard her young lady say this, she burst into tears and was so excited that she couldn't express it in words.
She has been persevering alone for so many years. For the sake of the young lady, she dared not tell the Jiang family. The old man almost gave up because of the loss of his son and could not bear the stimulation anymore.
She did not dare to tell the truth because of her young lady's last words before her death. She was also worried that these people might hurt her young lady, so she could only endure it, live in the mansion, and try her best to find the truth.
But now the little lady, who has grown up and is married, told her that she wants to avenge her mother!
Such a firm tone made her feel as if she had found her backbone, and her heart immediately calmed down.
"Young lady, young lady, cough cough cough..."
Seeing her like this, Yu Tingwan knew that now was not the time to ask questions, and the important thing was to find a way to get her out.
"Don't talk yet. You are poisoned, do you know that?"
Aunt Qian’s eyes widened immediately. So that’s it, so that’s it. She said, why is it that... I thought it was because I was getting old and thinking too much!
"I'm afraid the people in this mansion don't want you to live, so if I want to take you out now, you have to cooperate with me, do you understand?"
Seeing her nod, Yu Tingwan felt relieved and reached out to take out a pill and asked her to take it.
Aunt Qian was about to say something, but she suddenly passed out, her eyes wide open, and she stopped breathing!
Yu Tingwan put her down and then looked at the tablet above.
The Yu family was not a prominent family. They were able to gain a foothold in the capital only because of the birth of Yu Huaiyi, who married the only daughter of Grand Tutor Jiang.
Therefore, there are not many tablets enshrined in the Yu family's ancestral hall. There are only Yu Huaiyi's father, grandparents, and the remaining one is his mother, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family, Jiang Wanyun.
Yu Huaiyi's mother, Li, is still alive, but no matter what happened in the mansion during this period, she has never shown up.
Looking at the tablet of his mother, Yu Tingwan whispered silently in his heart.
Miss Jiang, if you have already met your daughter, please forgive me for seeing me now. I am not a ghost, and I occupied your daughter's body unintentionally.
Please rest assured, I will take good care of your remaining family members, find out the truth for you, and make your enemies pay with their lives. I hope you rest in peace.
Yu Tingwan took another deep look at the tablet, turned around, opened the door of the ancestral hall, and called Qingzhu and Zisu who were acting as guards on the side.
Qingzhu and Zisu could naturally tell the difference between the dead and the living. They looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
When the princess entered just now, they saw this nanny lying on the ground. It was Lan Yue who told them that this was the maid who came with the princess' mother's dowry.
Who would have thought that he would die just like that? But the two dared not say anything and could only follow the princess's instructions.
Several people were preparing to take Madam Qian away from the ancestral hall, but unfortunately, before they walked out of the ancestral hall, they saw Minister Yu and his housekeeper and servant rushing towards them.
Yu Tingwan raised her eyebrows slightly as she looked at the person hurrying in front of her. What a coincidence! She had just brought the person out when he brought people to block them!
"What happened, father?"
Minister Yu stopped and did not speak for a while, but his eyes kept wandering over Yu Tingwan's face and Nanny Qian, trying to see something.
"Father?"
Yu Tingwan looked at him strangely, not understanding what was wrong with him.
"But what happened? If there is anything, just tell me directly. I will help if I can."
It's not clear whether it's more of a hindrance than a help!
Minister Yu collected his thoughts and looked at her with a hint of tentativeness in his eyes, but he couldn't hide it from Yu Tingwan.
"You still know this old woman?"
Yu Tingwan nodded, "Of course, this is my mother's personal maid. Before she passed away, my mother asked her to be my foster nanny."
Then, he looked at Yu Shangshu with a look of surprise and gratitude: "But I have to thank father. Nanny said that mother originally wanted to let everyone around her leave, but Nanny Qian refused. It was father's kindness that kept her in the mansion to accompany mother all the year round, but..."
When Yu Tingwan said this, a sad look appeared on her face.
Seeing her like this, Yu Shangshu's nerves, which had been relaxed, tensed up again, and he quickly asked, "Just what? Did Aunt Qian say anything else?"
"Mammy hasn't even finished her words yet..."
Yu Tingwan didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clear.
Now, Minister Yu was completely relaxed. It seemed that the old woman really didn't know anything, and even if she noticed it, she didn't have time to say it out loud.
Humph, none of those people can do their job reliably. They can poison an old woman to death and still leave her a breath!
Although he thought this in his heart, Yu Shang also showed heavy feelings on his face.
"Don't be sad, Tingwan. This nanny has been suffering for so many years. Now that she is going to find your mother, she must be happy. Don't worry, your father will prepare a coffin for her so that she can rest in peace."
Yu Tingwan shook her head, "No, father. I want to bury Aunt Qian myself and take her to a beautiful place outside Beijing to rest in peace."
Yu Shangshu frowned slightly, then sighed helplessly, "It's up to you. This is your mother's man, and she once served you. It's a blessing for her that you bury him yourself."
"Yes, I want to personally send Madam off." Yu Tingwan turned around and instructed An Si who was waiting on the side:
"Take your men and go make a coffin out of the best wood. We'll go find a good place in the suburbs of Beijing this afternoon."
"Yes, princess."
After An Si left, Yu Tingwan asked a few little girls to take Madam Qian's "body" to her mother's yard.
"Father, have you packed up Aunt Li's things? I have to take Aunt Qian to my mother's yard now, and we can't leave without a place to sit."
Before Yu Shangshu opened his mouth, Qingzhu replied, "Princess, the main courtyard has been almost cleaned up."
"Well, let's take Madam Qian there quickly. You can buy her some new clothes and help her to dress up so that she can go to see her mother in a decent manner."
Seeing that Qingzhu remembered it, Yu Tingwan said goodbye to Minister Yu who was still looking at them inquiringly.
"Father, I will go back to my mother's yard first. I will leave after the coffin is ready."
Without waiting for Minister Yu to nod, Yu Tingwan took her people and went straight to her mother's Fusangyuan.
Minister Yu looked at the people who were leaving, his eyes fixed on Yu Tingwan's back.
"master?"
The butler beside him woke up Yu Shangshu, squinted his eyes and looked at the few people who disappeared from his sight and said:
"Send someone to watch and see if the old lady is dead or not. If she is still alive, you know what to do!"
"Yes."
