The wonderful life of modern women in ancient times

Chapter 209 Madam, it’s bad, that guy is here again!

Seeing that his grandfather was in a good mood, Zhao Junhuan wondered if he could tell him now about Aunt Yan'er's murder.

Seeing the confusion on his grandson's face, the old prime minister put down the medicine bottle in his hand, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's wrong? Is there anything bad going on?"

He knew his grandson too well. The matter that could make him so hesitant must not be a trivial one!

"Tell me, your grandfather has experienced all kinds of storms and waves. Is there anything I can't stand?"

Seeing that Zhao Junhuan was still hesitant, the old prime minister patted him on the shoulder and said.

"Grandfather, Aunt Yan'er's hemorrhage was not an accident, someone murdered her!"

Zhao Junhuan finally made up his mind to tell his grandfather about the matter, and said to him seriously.

To his surprise, his grandfather did not have any big reaction. His eyes just turned cold and then returned to normal in an instant.

"After your aunt passed away, I have been secretly investigating. She has always been in good health. I have asked several doctors, and her hemorrhage is really strange!"

The old prime minister looked into the distance and spoke slowly.

"So what did Grandfather find out?"

Zhao Junhuan handed the old prime minister a cup of tea and looked at him and asked.

"No, I sent people to check all the eating utensils carefully, and there was no trace at all, but I just felt that Yan'er's death was not right! Do you know something?"

The old prime minister looked at Zhao Junhuan steadily and asked in a deep voice.

Zhao Junhuan then told him in detail about how Lin Xi accidentally discovered the elixir of blood circulation inside the longevity lock.

After hearing this, the old prime minister closed his eyes and thought for a while. He told Zhao Junhuan not to interfere in the matter and just deal with Zhao Ting'er and Cao Fangqing. Then he let him go down to rest.

After Zhao Junhuan left, the old prime minister called the butler to his side and gave him some instructions. The old butler then left the prime minister's residence in a hurry, and no one knew what he was busy with.

"Ma'am, where shall we go today?"

Leng Linglong's maid Pei'er helped Leng Linglong into the carriage and asked her where she wanted to go today.

I don’t know what’s wrong with the lady these days. She goes out shopping after breakfast and doesn’t come back until dinner time. She always eats lunch at a restaurant outside.

She didn't like to attend banquets in the past, but these days she would go to a banquet whenever she received an invitation.

Moreover, whenever they met the wife of General Cao and the wife of Marquis Anyang, their wives would argue with them.

"Let's go to Ruyi Tower first today!"

Leng Linglong was half lying comfortably in the carriage, and gave orders with narrowed eyes.

The coachman quickly waved the whip and drove Leng Linglong towards Ruyi Tower.

Yesterday Leng Linglong sent someone to secretly inquire about it. Today, Zhao Ting'er and several ladies were drinking tea and listening to music in Ruyi Tower.

Ruyi Tower is a famous teahouse in the capital. It is the property of Marquis Jingbei. Only officials and their wives can drink tea there.

"Pei'er, you guys wait outside and go shopping to buy some little gadgets you like. I'll go in by myself!"

Leng Linglong stuffed a silver ingot into Pei'er's hand and said.

After saying this, before Pei'er could speak, she entered Ruyi Tower.

Pei'er looked at Madam's back and shook her head helplessly. Ever since Madam deliberately made trouble for General Cao's wife two days ago, after they went back and told the nanny, Madam would not let them serve her personally from time to time.

She had figured out what was going on. As long as they went out to a place and Madam let them go shopping and have fun by themselves, she must be up to something! She was just afraid that they would go back and report to Madam, so she sent them away in advance.

She and Bi'er looked at each other, then got on the carriage and sat in the compartment waiting obediently for the lady. In case the lady suffered any harm, they would appear in time as long as the lady called out, although they knew that with the lady's skills and status, she would generally not suffer any harm.

In the past, the Madam would not bother with Zhao Ting'er and her daughter. But recently, for some reason, the Madam has stopped doing anything and has been specifically looking for trouble with the mother and daughter, and she seems to be enjoying it.

As soon as the nanny and the master tried to persuade her, the lady would bring out the old prime minister.

The nanny and the master were so helpless that they simply ignored her. As long as the lady didn't suffer any loss, it was fine.

Leng Linglong walked into Ruyi Tower, stopped and listened for a while, then walked towards the second floor.

She heard Zhao Ting'er's voice on the second floor.

A little maid who was guarding in the corner of the first floor saw Leng Linglong coming in, and quickly ran upstairs and quietly came behind her wife.

"Ma'am, it's bad, that guy is here again!"

The little maid leaned over to the ear of a noble lady dressed in luxurious clothes and whispered.

The lady subconsciously turned her head to look at the stairs, and saw Leng Linglong had already come up, smiling brightly at her and walking towards her.

Zhao Ting'er looked at this evil star and felt very depressed.

Leng Linglong is straightforward and doesn't pretend. She used to be the one who bullied Leng Linglong, but she didn't know what happened in the past few days. Leng Linglong seemed to have ignored everything and was picking on her.

Now, she was afraid of making a scene and being embarrassed, so she was a little restrained and was taken advantage of by her several times.

Moreover, Leng Linglong had many tricks up her sleeve, and she was always caught off guard. Today, she asked someone to wait there specifically, just to let him slip away before she came.

I didn’t expect that I still didn’t make it in time.

Just as she was thinking, Leng Linglong had already arrived in front of her. She bowed to her tenderly and said, "What a coincidence! I didn't expect that my cousin is also here listening to the music. It's just right for us to be together so that I won't be alone!"
