”Madam, just now, the Grand Matriarch suddenly suffered from an old illness. The people in the courtyard were panicking, and the servants were dismissed. I'm afraid that the news has already been leaked.”
The corner of Su Yu Ruo's mouth held a trace of a smile that had an unknown meaning.
Lady Fang looked at her. ”Is little sister happy?”
”How could that be? ”I didn't expect that you would be unable to keep up with our plans even though you've been planning so hard. It truly makes me anxious.”
”I'm not in a hurry, so what's the rush?” As long as the person who poisoned you is in the Su Palace, there's no way you can escape! ”
”Then I'll be waiting for you.”
Fang Shi raised her voice and said, ”Su Xin, go outside and ask. Have you caught anyone? Making them wait outside isn't just for the reward! ”
”Yes.”
Mother Cui answered and then left. However, a short while later, she brought a rather sturdy looking servant over. ”Madam, we've caught someone. This person is here to sweep the garden. His name is Zhang San, and he has just entered the Su residence!”
Lady Fang didn't care about this person's background. She only cared who the captor was and quickly asked, ”Where did you catch him?” Which courtyard did that person come from? ”
Zhang San scratched his head and replied with a blush, ”In reply to the Madam, I entered the garden too late. I don't know that person. It was when I saw her sneaking around at the side door of the Jade Mist Garden that I thought of Madam's orders and locked her up. ”
Mrs Fang laughed openly, ”Side door? There was almost no one by the side door of the Jade Mist Garden. It seemed like there was something wrong. Su Xin was rewarded! Get him to bring them up! ”
After seeing Cui Mother bringing her people away, he turned to Su Yurou and said: ”Little sister, we've been in your courtyard for so long, why haven't we brought the maids' pastries yet? Could it be that after staying in the Palace for so long, I've gotten lost? ”
Su Yuruo stiffened and laughed, ”It's all my fault for spoiling her too much and letting this girl slack off. When she comes back, I'll teach her a good lesson. ”If elder sister-in-law is tired, why don't we go to the house and wait for her?”
”No need, Mother is still outside, how can we go in the house and enjoy it? The patient should be in front. ”
”It's my fault for being inconsiderate.”
Su Mo Yun did not want to wait in the courtyard for the Grand Matron to stab him for an hour, so he said directly, ”Aunt, you should call a few servants over and bring the Grand Matron into the house. Although the weather is a bit warmer now, it is still early spring after all. The cold air is still there, so it's better not to stay outside for too long. ”
Su Mo Yun had just displayed his medical skills, making the Grand Matron's legs, which had been in pain for so many years, relax a little. Regardless of whether it was the Fang family or Su Yuruo, no one doubted her words anymore.
”Someone, bring the Grand Matron in.”
The servants carefully brought the grand madame into the inner room, where they waited outside for her report.
After a while, Grandma Cui walked in with a familiar figure.
”Sister, this isn't your personal maid, Clove?”
With a cold expression, Su Yuruo asked, ”Clove, what's going on?”
Clove covered her face and cried pitifully, ”Madam, I really don't know what's going on. You asked me to go to the kitchen and get some pastries, but I was just out of the side door when I was stopped. No matter what I said, they refused to believe me. You must uphold justice for this servant! ”
”You want to go to the kitchen through the side door?” Lady Fang spoke calmly, but her words were filled with ridicule. ”Since when did the side door of the Jade Magnolia Courtyard become closer to the big kitchen?”
