"Is the food poisonous?" People of this age became more and more protective of their lives, even the old mistress, who was always in front of the Buddha, felt the same way.

Xie Wanqing nodded his head, "Grandmother, if you don't believe me, you can ask the kitchen manager. The supervisor was also watching when the food was being tested on that night!"

"Little sister, you can't speak nonsense like that. The silver needles are not allowed to be used!" Xie Wanyun who had not spoke for a long time spoke up. At this time, both of them wanted to pass the time with discounts in their eyes. Since several days had passed already, their faces would no longer be left for food!

"After Second Miss found the silver needles that were turning black, he instructed the servant to find a doctor outside. It can be seen that there were indeed things added to the dishes!" Without Xie Wanqing's reminder, the kitchen manager continued.

"What is it?" The old mistress clenched the handle of the chair tightly, as if she was about to break it. If the poison were to land on the head of the Old Ancestor, what would happen then?

"According to the imperial physician, this is a rare item and a secret medicine for the golden race. It won't kill you in a short period of time, but it'll make you hot to the core. That's what the old lady's symptoms are like when she's sick!" The steward had been in the Marquis Anyang's Mansion for a few years, and his actions were old, as he answered calmly.

"How could that be? The doctor said that the madame only caught a cold, how can this be?" The one who said that was Xie Wanyun.

As if she was really worried about the madame, and the tears were rolling in her eyes, Xie Wanqing thought to herself that she should not be afraid of being struck to death by lightning.

"Grandmother, the person who poisoned you has a sinister heart, you have to investigate thoroughly!" Xie Wanyun kneeled on the ground. She was already dressed seriously, and there was only a hairpin on her head.

"How could the madame possibly bear such torture when she has just recovered from her illness? Madame, why don't you leave this to me and Ye Yun!" Concubine Fang was actually so anxious to get his orders.

The mother and daughter duo singing together was truly wonderful. They were in such a hurry to request an order for them to investigate? Their only enemy was Xie Wanqing, was she waiting for them to investigate her background?

"There's no need to trouble Grandmother. Since Sanguine has already gone to the kitchen, she has naturally interrogated the maids and Mama in the kitchen!" Xie Wanqing replied with a tone that was neither servile nor overbearing.

The madame was indeed prepared to agree to both of them. Naturally, she had gained the madame's trust after taking care of them for the past few days.

But since Xie Wanqing had said so, the Old Mistress had to ask him what she found out first. "Oh? "Hei Qing, did you manage to get anything out of your question?"

According to what Liu Li said that day, when Liu Li was helping Mama, the servant, Bi Xin, joined in and joked around with Liu Li. At first, Liu Li did not want to bother with Liu Li, but after the dishes were prepared, when she was busy cooking on the internet, she did not pay attention to Bi Xin as she was using a type of powder!

"Oh? "Then why didn't you report it at that time?" The madame's gaze turned stern.

At that time, everyone was busy, and Liu Li was alone and quiet. In addition, she asked Bi Xin, and Bi Xin said that the flavor was a bit lighter, but it was just seasoning.

Concubine Fang and Xie Wanyun were afraid that Xie Wanqing had already found out that Bi Xin was one of their people, when she said Bi Xin, her face changed even more.

"She's just a young maid. Why would she want to harm me?" The Old Mistress had always been the most suspicious one, and now, she did not believe in Xie Wanqing at all.

"A young servant girl doesn't need to hurt people, but Liu Li has seen Bi Xin and the Mama Zhang beside her have a good relationship, Grandmother, please say, our household rules, how can a young servant girl wait for the Mama to make a good relationship?"

Once Xie Wanqing said this, the old lady started to size up Concubine Fang in front of her with cold eyes.

"Then someone must want this old woman to die!" Although the Old Mistress had only said that, she did not say it out loud. Instead, she looked at Concubine Fang.

How could a maid have any bad intentions? Many bad thoughts must have been taught to her by a master.

"Grandmother has Buddha's blessing, even the vile creatures have to take a detour. How can I harm Grandmother? The real culprit has surfaced to sleep right in front of my eyes. That's all that I can find for Grandmother!" Xie Wanqing kneeled on the ground and said those beautiful words.

"Then call out Liu Li and Bi Xin!" The old mistress said coldly.

Yue Xin agreed and then went down, in a short while she brought two servants, one of them looked to be around Yue Xin's age, and when Xie Wanqing went into the kitchen, she had seen Liu Li, and another servant girl she did not recognize. Although her appearance was average, but she looked slightly older, and if she thought about it, this must be Bi Xin.

It was just that when she heard that the old mistress had summoned her, she was already scared out of her wits. At that time, Liu Li would not be afraid of her, and adding the fact that Xie Wanqing had greeted her before, she would calmly kneel on the ground.

"Bi Xin, what did you add into my dish?" The old lady's first sentence was asked in such a stern voice that it caused her heart to tremble. She had never imagined that Xie Wanqing would start staring at her so early in the morning.

"Madam, please save me. You said that you will save me …" He did not answer the Old Mistress' question and instead grabbed onto Concubine Fang's thigh tightly, as if they were old acquaintances.

"Bi Xin, previously, I saw that you were on good terms with Mama Zhang. Could it be that you know him?" Xie Wanqing's small body seemed to have the bearing of a master.

Concubine Fang raised her hand high up, and with a "pa" sound, she slapped at Bi Xin.

This voice hurt just by hearing it, and it caused Bi Xin to directly fall flat on the ground, and even Xie Wanyun, who was at the side, to become stupefied.

"I originally wanted you to do a good job in this house. It's only been a few years and you've already done such a bad thing. You've even poisoned the madame's head. I think you want to die!"

Everyone looked at Concubine Fang's stern words and did not understand them, but Xie Wanqing knew in her heart that once the matter was exposed, she would naturally have to protect herself and her daughter.

"How dare you! How can you have the right to beat up a maid in this mansion!" The old mistress had been displeased to begin with, but the voice came back to her again.

In the Marquis Anyang's Mansion, only the main wife had the authority to discipline the servants, which was to say, only the old mistress, Madame Ye and Xie Kai had such authority.

As for his concubine, each of the concubines' young masters could only discipline his own servant girl in the courtyard. It was coincidentally the old lady who paid the most attention to etiquette.

"Madame, I was the one who recommended this girl into the kitchen to do some work. I didn't expect her to do such a thing. I was just too anxious and had unintentionally violated the rules!"

"No, madame, it's not like that …" Bi Xin was so scared that her entire body was trembling, but when she heard Concubine Fang's words, she struggled to get up.

"Madame, since Liu Li saw it, it must be true. Since you murdered Master, it must be because of a grudge in my heart. How about I sell my jade heart to you? You absolutely can't stay in the mansion!" Concubine Fang's eyes were fierce.

"Don't, don't, the old mistress, your servant was wrong, your servant was wrong …" If he sold it, what good would come of it? If he didn't work hard, he might as well buy it at a brothel. It was much harder than working in this Marquis Anyang's Mansion's kitchen. It was also much worse.

"Mm …" I'll do as you say! Since this girl was recommended by you, then shut your doors and think about it. Don't come out if you don't have anything to do, Ye Yun, you've worked hard these past few days, don't worry about it and kneel for one day and one night! "

The old mistress' voice became gentler, as if the things she had said had nothing to do with her. She was naturally clear in her heart, but what could she do?

If news of this got out, wouldn't it make people laugh their heads off? The madame could only temporarily suppress the matter and shamelessly pursue the matter of a maid.
