Transmigration: Becoming the Wicked Stepmother of Four Children

Chapter 97 Lin Yunlan's Suspicion

Shuang'er looked at the two large silver ingots in her hands,

Puzzled, he asked Lu Qingqing:

"mother,

Why did that uncle just give Shuang'er money?

Lu Qingqing gently patted Shuang'er's head and said tenderly:

"That's because Uncle Mu thinks Shuang'er is well-behaved and sensible."

So this is your reward.

Shuang'er blinked and asked again:

"But Shuang'er didn't do anything special."

Lu Qingqing smiled:

In Uncle Mu's eyes, Shuang'er was diligently studying medical books.

That was a fantastic performance.

Shuang'er nodded as if she understood, and then said:

"Mother, should we put this silver away?"

Lu Qingqing thought for a moment and said:

"Keep this silver for now."

"Use it when Shuang'er needs it later."

Shuang'er obediently replied:

"Alright, Shuang'er will listen to her mother."

Just then, Lin Yunlan and the others returned.

Lin Yunlan asked with a smile:

"What are you talking about that makes you so happy?"

Shuang'er immediately ran happily to Lin Yunlan's side.

He said with a smile:

"Father, look!"

Uncle Mu just gave Shuang'er one hundred taels of silver.

Let Shuang'er study medicine diligently.

Lin Yunlan looked at the two silver ingots in Shuang'er's hand.

His eyes were full of doubts.

Lu Qingqing said:

"Young Master Mu just arrived."

He said he wanted to thank them for saving him last time.

Lin Yunlan asked in surprise:

"Mu Yunfei, the owner of Baohetang?"

Lu Qingqing replied:

"Well, it's him."

Lin Yunlan asked, full of doubt:

"Then why did he give Shuang'er so much silver?"

Lu Qingqing gently shook her head:

I don't know either.

Young Master Mu only said that he valued Shuang'er's love of learning.

I would like to express my support.

They also said that if Shuang'er wanted to learn more about herbs,

You may go to his Baohe Hall.

Lin Yunlan frowned and paced back and forth in the room:

"Qingqing, I have a feeling that there's more to this than meets the eye,"

Lu Qingqing looked worried:

"I can't quite figure out what Young Master Mu is thinking."

At this moment, Shuang'er tugged at Lin Yunlan's sleeve.

He tilted his head back and said:

"Father, but Uncle Mu seems like a good person."

Could it be that he just wants to help Shuang'er?

Lin Yunlan squatted down and looked at Shuang'er, saying:

"Shuang'er is right, but people's hearts are unpredictable."

We still need to be more careful.

Just then, Feilong stepped forward and said:

"Big brother, Mu Yunfei?"

The heir of the Marquis of Nanyang was also named Mu Yunfei.

I heard he also runs several clinics.

Could we be talking about the same person?

Lin Yunlan's expression hardened.

"The heir of the Marquis of Nanyang,"

Isn't that the eldest princess's son?

How did he end up here?

Lin Yunlan and Feilong Feihu exchanged a glance.

The three of them immediately went to another room.

As soon as they entered the room, the three of them immediately began to discuss the matter.

Lin Yunlan lowered his voice and said:

"Flying Dragon, Flying Tiger, what do you think of this matter?"

Feilong said:

"If Mu Yunfei is truly the eldest princess's son..."

Heir apparent to the Marquis of Nanyang.

So why did he come to such a remote town?

And what is the matter then?

Flying Tiger also said:

"If he really is the heir of the Marquis of Nanyang"

"Then wouldn't he be related to the Second Prince and the Third Prince as cousins?"

Lin Yunlan frowned and said:

"Your previous investigation,

Is there any clue about him?

Flying Dragon and Flying Tiger both shook their heads:

"Brother, we haven't paid attention to this person before."

Indeed, there were no clues.

But in my opinion, his sudden appearance here...

This is definitely not ordinary.

Lin Yunlan murmured:

"The second prince and the third prince are both his cousins."

But we didn't know he was close to the Second Prince.

I still lean more towards the Third Prince.

Flying Dragon and Flying Tiger asked eagerly:

"Brother, given the current situation..."

What should we do?

Lin Yunlan's gaze was deep, and after a moment of contemplation, he said:

"Flying Dragon, Flying Tiger, listen up!"

The situation is currently unclear.

We need to change our search direction.

Instead of painstakingly searching for evidence that the Third Prince was framed,

It would be better to take the initiative and interfere with the Second Prince.

You two go and arrange the manpower immediately.

Try to find evidence that the Second Prince may have overlooked in his other illegal activities.

Collect as much as possible.

It might come in very handy later.

Feilong nodded solemnly in response:

"Brother, I think this is a good idea."

We brothers will definitely do our best.

However, the second prince has always been cautious in his actions.

It will likely take some time to gather evidence.

Flying Tiger also looked troubled:

"However, we will do everything we can."

We must strive to leave no stone unturned.

Lin Yunlan continued:

"Flying dragon, flying tiger"

You have another direction this time.

After you go to the capital,

We could try looking for clues from Mu Yunfei as well.

Ask around.

Regardless of whether he was on good terms with the Second Prince,

They still favor our Third Prince.

We all need to be clear about whether he is a friend or foe.

And I always felt that

"It might be easier for us to investigate through him."

Feilong cupped his hands and said:

"Brother, we understand."

We will proceed with caution.

Lin Yunlan nodded slightly, his expression solemn:

"Flying dragons, flying dragons, remember this!"

Never act impulsively.

Your own safety should be the top priority.

Feilong solemnly replied:

"Brother, don't worry."

We know what's important and will not act impulsively or recklessly.

Flying Tiger quickly added:

"Don't worry, we will be careful."

Lin Yunlan's eyes were full of concern:

"This journey to the capital will surely be fraught with danger."

A single misstep could lead to utter ruin.

You must be very, very careful.

If you encounter danger, saving your life is the most important thing.

Feilong and Feihu also sensed Lin Yunlan's worry.

They said in unison:

"Brother, don't worry too much."

We will definitely return safely.

After the three of them discussed it, they opened the door and came out.

Until he walked up to Lu Qingqing,

Feilong cupped his hands in a sincere gesture and said:

"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to have bothered you so much these past few days."

Thank you for your care, sister-in-law.

It warmed the hearts of my brother and me.

"Now that we brothers have some matters to attend to, we must take our leave."

When Lu Qingqing heard that they were leaving:

Why are you in such a hurry?

I figured they must have something important to take care of.

So he quickly turned around and went back into the house.

A moment later, he came out carrying a bundle and said:

"I don't know how long this journey will take."

I've prepared some food for you.

There's meat, herbal tea, and dry rations; take them with you.

Flying Tiger gratefully accepted the bundle:

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

You've thought of everything so thoroughly, thank you so much.

Lu Qingqing smiled and gave him instructions:

"Take good care of yourselves while you're away from home."

"Come check back often once things are done."

Feilong nodded in agreement:

"Thank you, sister-in-law. We will definitely come again."

The two bowed to Lu Qingqing and Lin Yunlan again to say goodbye.

He then mounted his horse and embarked on an unknown journey.

Lu Qingqing watched the two figures disappear and said:

"Yunlan, why are those two in such a hurry to leave?"

"Has something happened?"

Lin Yunlan remained calm and comforted him:

"Qingqing, don't worry."

They received a last-minute message from their elders.

There are some matters that require their assistance.

Lin Qingqing was skeptical of Lin Yunlan's answer.

However, she wisely refrained from pressing the matter further.

He simply nodded and said:

"That's good."

Seeing that Lu Qingqing was no longer asking questions,

Lin Yunlan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He quickly changed the subject and asked:

"Qingqing, how is Shuang'er's study of medical books going?"

Lu Qingqing came back to her senses, thought for a moment, and said:

"Shuang'er is indeed a diligent child."

However, learning medicine is not something that can be accomplished overnight; it requires a gradual approach.

Lin Yunlan nodded thoughtfully:

Yes, but as long as she has the intention,

There will always be something to gain.

Lu Qingqing nodded slightly:

Hopefully she can hold on.

He hopes to become a good doctor in the future.

Lin Yunlan smiled:

"I can tell how serious Shuang'er is."

There shouldn't be any major problems..."
