Chapter 624 Bai Zhenzhen's Father
Chapter 624 Bai Zhenzhen’s Father
When Xia Anan got the news, she winked at Wei's mother who was standing in the room.
Mother Wei went out quietly.
After a while, she ran in and said to Xia Anan: "Fifth grandma!"
Xia Anan looked at her: "What's wrong?"
"Ms. Lu pushed down the little girl who was bringing her water and ran away!"
Xia Anan: "Where did you run?"
Mother Wei: "We're going to Jixiangyuan."
Xia Anan stood up and went to Jixiang Garden.
In the yard, Nanshan and others pushed Mrs. Lu to her knees.
Mrs. Lu howled like a butchered pig: "Old lady! Help!"
Everyone in the room came out, and the old lady asked with a stern face: "What are you doing? Are you crying like a ghost?"
Mrs. Lu shouted: "Old madam, help! The fifth master and the fifth grandma want to use me as a scapegoat! Madam's poisoning has nothing to do with me!"
"Who wants to use you as a scapegoat?" Xia Anan walked in from outside, "I just asked you to assist in the investigation. If you are innocent, there is no need to be afraid."
"I heard what they said with my own ears!" Mrs. Lu shouted, "They said you were going to have me stabbed to make a warning to others!"
Xia Anan: "Who did you listen to?"
Mrs. Lu: "Just... there's someone talking outside the door, I can't tell who it is!"
"That may be just the gossip of the servants." Xia An'an said, "You don't have to take it seriously. Go back quickly and don't disturb the old lady's purity."
Xia Anan looked at Mrs. Lin and said with a smile: "Mother is here? When did she come?"
Lu Xinlan replied: "What were you causing trouble just now? It's so inappropriate!"
Xia An'an: "It's because they didn't have a prison guard. They offended grandma! I'll take them away right now."
Xia Anan turned around and ordered everyone to leave here.
Mrs. Lin probably had something on her mind, but she didn't bother her and just let them go.
After Xia Anan went out, she looked back and left.
It wasn't until after lunch that Lu Zhuo returned to Wakoyuan.
Xia Anan hurriedly asked him: "How is it? It's not exposed, right?"
Lu Zhuo shook his head.
"Why did it take so long? How did it come out?" Xia Anan asked again.
Lu Zhuo: "When my aunt was leaving after dinner, my grandmother sent her out, and I left through the back window."
Xia Anan: "What did you hear?"
Lu Zhuo was silent for a moment and said, "They didn't directly name whose letter it was from, but judging from what they said, it might be Zhen Zhen's father."
Xia Anan was surprised: "What? Bai Zhenzhen's father?"
Lu Zhuo nodded: "The two of them seem to have something in Zhen Zhen's father's hands, so they were both worried when they saw the letter."
Xia Anan: "You didn't say what the specific reason was?"
Lu Zhuo: "Both of them are very careful."
Xia Anan: "Who is his father? Was he also from your family before?"
Lu Zhuo: "I don't know about this either. I was too young at the time. I'll find out later."
Xia Anan: "Shall I call Mother Wei first and ask?"
Lu Zhuo nodded.
Mother Wei has lived in this house for decades, and Xia Anan and Lu Zhuo are not as old as her combined.
Asked about Bai Zhenzhen's father, she thought about it for a moment and then remembered: "Bai Zhenzhen's mother is the old lady's maid, surnamed Xu. She is married to her own family, and she seems to have married her cousin.
.When that person came to my house, I saw him once or twice, but it was so long that I forgot what he looked like."
Xia Anan: "Where does he make a living?"
Mother Wei: "Well... the Xu family is somewhat distantly related to the Xu family, the imperial concubine at that time. Because of this, she often looks at people with her nostrils. Her cousin seems to be helping the Xu family with some business, specifically.
I don’t know what kind of business it is.”
Xia Anan: "Xu family? Xu Wei family?"
Mother Wei: "Yes! Bai Zhenzhen's mother died first to save her aunt, and then her father was implicated because of the Xu family's affairs, and seemed to have been sent away! Bai Zhenzhen was left alone as a little girl. At that time,
She looked very pitiful. The old lady thought of her mother's merits and decided to let the Duke adopt her as his adopted daughter."
I have a fever today, I don’t know if it’s...
