Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Chapter 245 Who are you pretending for?



Chapter 245 Who are you pretending for?

Taking advantage of the fact that she was alone, Daiyu added half a bottle of truth serum into each of the two dishes, and then mixed them evenly with chopsticks.

After doing all this, Daiyu sat down and began to enjoy her breakfast.

Calculating the time, by the time she arrived at the Jinyiwei Yamen, the strange taste of the truth serum should have been completely integrated into the food.

In this way, Lai Da should not notice that "condiments" were added to the food.

Daiyu closed her eyes and thought, once again rehearsing in her mind how she should interrogate Lai Da.

Just then, Grandmother Jia, who was sitting next to him, suddenly spoke.

"Yu'er, do you blame your grandmother?"

Last night, Jia's mother thought about it for a long time, tossing and turning, and finally fell asleep in the second half of the night. So now she looked a little gloomy, and her eyes were slightly dark blue.

This kind of haggardness was something that neither of my two uncles had ever experienced when they were imprisoned.

Daiyu shook her head and replied, "I am not the victim, so I don't have the right to do so."

Grandmother Jia's lips trembled as she pressed on, "So Min'er blames me."

Daiyu was silent for a while, then recalled the original owner's memory and said slowly: "I don't know whether I blame you or not.

But in these years, mother has not been able to give birth to a son for father, and she blames herself. Although father does not often go to aunt's room, mother will be sad every time he goes. "

The original owner was very smart since she was young, and she kept all these things in mind.

"I also consulted several famous doctors on my way to Beijing, and they diagnosed that I was born with fetal toxins..."

Before Daiyu finished her words, she was interrupted by Jia's mother's stern shout. Jia's mother's eyes were filled with a fierceness that Daiyu had never seen before: "What did you say!"

Facing Grandmother Jia's questioning, Daiyu was not afraid at all and continued, "I suspect that my mother had been poisoned before I was born, and this poison is very secretive and difficult for outsiders to detect. Of course, there is another more terrible possibility..."

There was hope in Jia's eyes when she looked at Daiyu. She didn't want to believe that her daughter was murdered by someone and she knew nothing about it for more than 20 years.

"Another possibility is that all the famous doctors in Jiangnan have actually diagnosed this poison, but for some reason, no one dares to tell us the truth."

Grandmother Jia's fantasy was completely shattered.

She closed her eyes tightly, struggled internally for a long time, then slowly opened her eyes and said, "The Wang family did have a secret medicine, which they obtained from overseas in their early years. They have always claimed that this medicine is extremely difficult to obtain, so it seems that they still secretly hid some."

She looked at Daiyu: "How did you suspect her?"

Daiyu shook her head: "I didn't doubt her, I just thought she was suspicious, so I put her on the list for investigation."

Grandmother Jia clenched her fists and made a decision: "I will ask Lai Da in person later."

"I'm afraid he won't be honest with you."

"No, he will."

There was a gleam of determination in Jia's mother's eyes, but when Daiyu saw that she was pursing her lips, she knew that this was not a good time to ask further questions, so she lowered her head and said nothing more.

At the gate of the government office, they happened to see Jia She and Jia Zheng being released. However, Grandmother Jia did not give them a good look.

Her mind was focused on the upcoming meeting with Lai Da.

Just when Jia She thought his mother was coming to pick them up from prison, he heard his mother bow to Jiang Chenshi, who released them, and said respectfully, "Master Jiang, can I see Lai Da? I have some private matters to ask him."

As she spoke, Grandmother Jia quietly handed over a silver note.

Jiang Yuanyuan took the opportunity to help Lady Jia stand up and calmly put the banknotes into his sleeves, with a bit of difficulty on his face: "Old Lady, you really embarrassed me! How can I accept your gift! But, this Lai Da is a traitor who committed a great disrespect, this... is indeed a little inconvenient."

Grandmother Jia understood and handed over another silver note.

Jiang Yuanyuan glanced at the amount on it, and immediately put on a smile and said, "Okay, since the old lady insists, I will let you go and meet him. But the old lady must go and come back quickly, otherwise if others find out, I will also be in trouble!"

"Thank you, sir!"

Daiyu also followed behind Lady Jia and saluted, but when no one noticed, there was something unfriendly in her eyes when she looked at Jiang Yuanyuan.

"Let's go!" Grandmother Jia patted Daiyu's hand and walked in first.

"Mother! Aren't we going back home? I've been in jail for a few days and I'm going to get stinky!" Jia She complained dissatisfiedly.

Grandmother Jia said impatiently, "If you can't wait, take the carriage behind and go back! Yu'er and I have things to do."

After saying that, she took Daiyu's hand and walked into the Jinyiwei Yamen without looking back.

Jia She was humiliated by Grandmother Jia, but he was not angry at all: Grandmother Jia did not treat him well, but she did not even glance at her second brother.

Thinking of this, Jia She actually felt mentally balanced and even a little proud.

He was about to say something to tease Jia Zheng, but suddenly he smelled the sour smell coming from himself and immediately lost interest.

"Second brother, let's go, let's go back home first!"

Jia Zheng looked back at the Jinyiwei Yamen, feeling uneasy. He hesitated and said, "Otherwise, let's wait for mother!"

When Jia She heard this, he immediately became impatient: "Hmph! Come on! Mother has already gone in, and there is no one else here, who are you pretending for!"

After saying that, he swung his sleeves and walked towards the carriage, muttering, "If you don't leave, I'll leave first. Is that stale steamed bun eaten by humans this morning?"

Jia Zheng pondered for a moment, and finally followed Jia She's steps.

Seeing that he was very honest, Jia She snorted with disdain and turned to get on the carriage.

Ever since Daiyu approached the Jinyiwei Yamen, 111 became unusually active in her mind.

The two bounty missions kept flashing before Daiyu's eyes, and the additional rewards were marked in large red fonts, as if they were afraid that she might not see them.

Daiyu disliked its noise and simply silenced it.

But even so, it still does not prevent 111 from presenting the scanned image to Daiyu.

[You really did everything you could to fulfill your mission. You didn't even charge me extra points for a function like projecting it in front of my eyes! ]

After she finished complaining, she quickly glanced at the scan and closed it.

Daiyu is not so desperate as to run around in the Jinyiwei Yamen in broad daylight.

Daiyu carried the food box and followed the clerk who was leading the way with Jia's mother. It became darker and darker as they walked.

After passing several prison doors, they finally stood outside Lai Da's cell.

"Hurry up!" The clerk knocked on the cell pillar impatiently and shouted.

Grandmother Jia took out a ten-liang silver note from her purse and handed it to the clerk: "Take it and have some tea. Thank you for leading the way."
