She stood up and glanced at Xia Yan lightly, her tone was surprisingly cold: "Madam Jiang, don't worry, I won't let you die so easily. Your life will not be strangled by me. Killing you must be done by your own flesh and blood."
Her tone was charming and seductive, as if the spirits in the underworld were waving at people. She said lightly: "This good show of fratricide, this princess is as vicious as a scorpion, how could I miss it?"
The red skirt was charming, dragging on the ground, and the door of the small Buddhist hall was closed again with a ‘pop’, and there seemed to be a cry of collapse in the room.
Jiang Ruan looked up and coldly ordered the two maids outside the door: "Watch closely, don't let her die."
Back in Ruan Ju, Jiang Ruan asked all the maids to leave. Lian Qiao and Luzhu didn't know what happened. Tianzhu, the only one who knew what happened, was a taciturn person. Although they were puzzled, the maids still obediently left. Jiang Ruan was the only one left in the room for a while.
Jiang Ruan sat at the desk, thinking nothing, and it was dark in a blink of an eye. She just felt a little annoyed in her heart, so she stood up and walked out of the house. Ruan Ju's yard was not big, she walked along the small yard to the wall and sat down by the wall.
The moon on a summer night was big and round, like a huge pearl, illuminating the yard clearly. Jiang Ruan sighed softly, and Xia Yan's words suddenly appeared in her mind again.
It was Jiang Dan, it was Jiang Dan who poisoned the tonic that Zhao Mei drank every day.
She remembered that when the third aunt died, she entrusted Jiang Dan to Zhao Mei. In fact, as the head of the Jiang family, Zhao Mei felt sorry for Jiang Dan who lost her mother at a young age, and she really loved Jiang Dan as her own daughter. Although Jiang Quan ignored Zhao Mei for a long time at that time, Xia Yan was more like the head of the family than Zhao Mei, but Zhao Mei and her son lived happily at that time.
When Jiang Ruan was a child, she only thought that this fourth sister was too timid, always like a frightened deer. Occasionally, she would stick too much to Zhao Mei, and even she would be slightly jealous. But thinking about it, she was relieved, just thinking that she was a little girl without a mother who relied on her stepmother, and told herself that she should be more open-minded.
Now thinking about it, she feels a little cold all over. The poisons Zhao Mei had in the past were actually given by Jiang Dan, not only that, but Jiang Dan also poisoned her.
Jiang Ruan only understood at this time why she had been uncomfortable all the time, because she had unknowingly eaten something poisonous in her early years. She just thinks that Jiang Dan was timid at that time, and there were not many opportunities to poison her tea and snacks on weekdays.
Later, she went to the farm, otherwise she would not know how she would survive now.
Jiang Dan, Jiang Ruan sneered in her heart. She knew that there was a person who was hiding deep in this mansion, but she didn't know that she was such a heartless person. Thinking that her mother's life seemed to be a joke, Jiang Ruan didn't know whether she was angry or sad.
Not sure how long she sat under the courtyard wall, until she felt a little sore all over her body, Jiang Ruan stood up and wanted to go back to the room. When she turned around, she was stunned.
Not far away, the man in black clothes stood quietly under the tree, looking at her lightly, obviously he had been there for a long time.
"Why are you... here?" Jiang Ruan said. Xiao Shao disappeared for a few days, and now he suddenly appeared from nowhere. Jiang Ruan was busy at the moment, but she didn't care to scold him for breaking into the mansion at night again.
