Lian Manman certainly rembers, when she was still in the old residence, at that ti Lian Huahua hadn’t gotten married yet. Yingzi ca looking for Lian Huahua and deliberately called out to her repeatedly. At that ti, she was sowhat suspicious. However, her entire energy was focused on dividing the family and figuring out how to lead her own life. She didn’t seriously pursue these suspicions.
At that ti, she guessed that Yingzi had a huge hold over Lian Huahua.
At this mont, the last vague mory left by the original Lian Manman erged in her mind.
It was a silhouette.
Because of this vague mory, Lian Manman suspected at the ti that when the original Lian Manman had her accident, she wasn’t the only one there. Simply because the mory was too blurry, she set it aside.
And now, everything is clear. It turns out the huge hold was actually like this. Poor Lian Manman didn’t fall and die by herself; she was killed by Lian Huahua and Lian Duoduo because she found out the truth about the so-called child bride. The original Lian Manman, at the mont of dying, should have seen Lian Huahua or Lian Duoduo’s hurriedly departing silhouette, right?
"Yingzi, did you clearly see that Lian Huahua and Lian Duoduo deliberately killed Manman?" Lian Manman slightly cald her mind and asked Yingzi as calmly as possible.
"Definitely." Yingzi imdiately replied, "Had it not been for hearing voices coming from the Wang Family’s woods, the two of them would have thrown you into the well."
"Voices, what voices?" Lian Manman frowned and asked.
"It was Young Master Wang and Young Doctor Wang." Yingzi said, noticeably hesitating when ntioning Young Master Wang. Clearly, this na left a special mark on her heart.
"Does this matter have anything to do with them?" Wu Lang asked.
"It was... it was they who ca over, Young Doctor Wang sent Manman ho. Lian Huahua hid inside my house until they left, and only then did Lian Huahua go ho. ... The events after that, no need for to say, you all know."
"Fortunately, Brother Youheng arrived in ti..." Wu Lang thought for a mont and said.
In Wu Lang’s view, at that ti Lian Manman was seriously injured, and Wang Youheng was able to quickly send Lian Manman ho, and invited Imperial Doctor Wang to treat Lian Manman, thus saving her life. Naturally, Lian Shouxin, Lady Zhang, including Lian Zhizhi and Xiao Qi all thought the sa.
They all didn’t know that even with Wang Youheng’s tily arrival, he actually didn’t save their Manman.
"Manman, they wanted to kill you back then, and now this venomous wife wants to kill again, she fell by the well and died, it was retribution. Heaven arranged for her to die, just as revenge for you. Manman, look at ..." Yingzi said to Lian Manman, trying to curry favor with her.
Yingzi kept talking to Lian Manman, begging also ant begging Lian Manman. This was because she already knew Lian Manman’s status at ho. When Lian Manman spoke, she had authority. Moreover, this matter was directly related to Lian Manman. Lian Manman was younger, so begging her was more useful than begging others.
"Enough." Lian Manman raised her hand to touch her forehead, stopping Yingzi from speaking further, "Tie up Duoduo."
Seeing Han Zhong’s wife leading people to tie up Lian Duoduo, Lian Manman thought for a mont and didn’t say what to do next, just ntioned feeling uncomfortable.
"Mom, Xiao Qi, you two accompany Manman back first." Wu Lang said.
"Gag Duoduo’s mouth, don’t let her scream, there will be ti for her to speak later. Everyone, move back, form a circle and keep watch. Go to the county, report to the officials, and bring the coroner." Wu Lang made a series of arrangents.
Seeing Wu Lang have people tie up Lian Duoduo but not her, Yingzi showed a bit of joy on her face.
A servant ran ho and ca back with a carriage, Lady Zhang and Xiao Qi accompanied Lian Manman onto the carriage, passing by the old residence’s gate, straight back ho.
Lian Zhizhi should have heard from the servant, ca out from the backyard to greet them. Her eyes were red, seeing Lian Manman get off the carriage, she rushed to embrace her.
Soon, Lian Shouxin and Wu Lang also returned. The father and son had arranged things over there, leaving people to guard the scene and Yingzi and Lian Duoduo, then hurried back.
The family sat around the kang, it seed like the ti when Lian Manman had just woken up on the kang in the West Wing Room of the old residence.
Even after ti has passed and recalling the past, it still breaks one’s heart.
Especially, no one imagined that Lian Manman actually died like that.
Lady Zhang and Lian Zhizhi were weeping, Xiao Qi was even more unrestrained, leaning against Lian Manman and shedding tears, Lian Shouxin and Wu Lang both had dark expressions, their eyes were red.
"Brother, find soone to question Lian Duoduo further." After a while, Lian Manman spoke first.
Find soone else to ask, not letting Wu Lang personally inquire.
"Okay." Wu Lang’s gaze flashed, imdiately understanding Lian Manman’s intention, turned and stepped out of the room.
After Lian Duoduo was bound, Wu Lang didn’t leave her at the wellside, but brought her over, keeping her in the woodshed. Therefore, Wu Lang didn’t take long after going out before returning.
No matter how fierce Lian Duoduo was, she was still only thirteen years old, if the Lian Family asked her anything, she might dare to argue, but if soone else did, using a few tactics, it would be easy to extract the truth from her. So, getting Lian Duoduo to tell the truth wasn’t very troubleso.
Everyone looked at Wu Lang, Wu Lang didn’t say much, just nodded.
Yingzi might not have told the whole truth, but the matter of Lian Huahua and Lian Duoduo killing Lian Manman was indeed true. This Lian Manman already understood by the well earlier, because Yingzi didn’t have the ability to fabricate such a realistic story, nor could she co up with what Lian Huahua, especially Lian Duoduo said at the ti.
"She said she and Lian Huahua pushed you, but just to scare you, not to kill you." Wu Lang said.
"Now she naturally won’t admit to it." Xiao Qi said angrily.
Yes, even if compelled to tell the truth, the instinct to save one’s life still exists.
Lian Manman leaned against the big pillow and slowly closed her eyes. She was thinking about the original Lian Manman’s mood before dying. Previously unaware of these, she could ignore certain things. But now, she must do sothing for the original Lian Manman.
Lian Manman was still pondering when soone reported from outside that Erlang had arrived.
"Old Master asked Father and the eldest brother to go over... The Old Master can speak now."
