Chapter 293: Detoxify (1)

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The more servants there were in the Young Master Manor, the more gossipy they became. In just one afternoon, the news of Su Mu committing suicide in the lake spread throughout the manor.

It was said that Su Mu was unwilling to stay in the Zhuyue Pavilion and went to beg Young Madam to transfer her back to Qingfeng Courtyard. In the end, Young Madam did not agree, and Su Mu became anxious. Coincidentally, at this time, the matter of Young Madam being poisoned happened, so the spearhead naturally pointed at Su Mu. In order to prove her innocence, Su Mu threw herself into the lake.

Of course, there were also people who said that Su Mu threw herself into the lake because she couldn’t stand the grievance.

Few people cared why Su Mu was transferred to the Zhuyue Pavilion. What they cared about was that Young Madam actually saved Su Mu.

“Who said that Young Madam transferred Su Mu to the Zhuyue Pavilion because she couldn’t tolerate Su Mu? If she couldn’t accept Su Mu, why didn’t she let her drown in the lake?” A maidservant who took care of the orchard said.

Her companion nodded. “Young Madam and her second brother have a deep relationship. She will pick cherries every day and get someone to send them to the Directorate.”

The maidservant thought for a while and said, “In that case, Young Madam is praising her by transferring her to the Zhuyue Pavilion.”

Her companion said, “Isn’t that so? Young Madam already has Zi Su by her side, and there’s also Tao’er and Li’er who came early. It’s difficult for Su Mu to make a name for herself in Qingfeng Courtyard, but she can immediately become a first-class maidservant when she goes to the Zhuyue Pavilion. If she’s favored by Second Young Master Yu…”

She would become a serving maid. If she was lucky, she could become a concubine in the future. It would be more promising than staying in the Qingfeng Courtyard.

Unless—

She wanted to seduce Young Master and be his concubine.

If that was really the case, she deserved it when Young Madam punished her to go to Zhuyue Pavilion.

No matter which was the truth, the entire incident changed from Yu Wan being intolerable to Su Mu not knowing what was good for her.

“I thought she was a well-behaved person, but I didn’t expect her to cause so much trouble. Which one of us servants doesn’t listen to our master’s orders? We have to do whatever our master wants us to do. How could she transfer wherever she wants? She’s a little too smug because the little masters are close to her, right? She even dares to ask Young Madam to transfer her back—if she doesn’t transfer her back, she’ll throw herself into the lake. Who is she threatening?”

From proving her innocence and feeling wronged, it had become Su Mu being unreasonable.

“That’s right, who is she threatening? Why is Young Madam so nearby? In my opinion, she deliberately jumped to let Young Madam see when she got Young Madam’s whereabouts, right?”

Yu Wan’s appearance had automatically made sense to these maidservants. Otherwise, why would they say that three women were a show? Their imagination was really not exaggerated.

Su Mu had indeed done many bad things, but it definitely didn’t include throwing herself into the lake and using death as a threat. But could she explain it clearly?

She had once made Yu Wan suffer in silence, and now Yu Wan would make her suffer twice as much.

Yu Wan sat in her room and practiced arranging flowers. Nepenthes was her favorite. With it in summer, she didn’t have to worry about her babies being bitten by mosquitoes. Peppermint, her second love, could refresh her mind and have sharp eyes and ears.

The maidservants in the room twitched their mouths. Are you really arranging flowers? Are you sure it’s not grass?

Fu Ling entered the room and reported the gossip she had heard according to Yu Wan’s instructions.

Everyone’s expressions became a little nervous as they looked at Yu Wan. Yu Wan sighed softly. “Sigh, how did it end up like this? Alright, the few of you go and take care of Su Mu. Don’t let her hear these words. She’ll feel terrible later. Zi Su, stay behind. Fu Ling, go to the small kitchen and see how the porridge made for Su Mu is going.”

The few of them filed out, and Li’er closed the door for Yu Wan.

No one questioned why Yu Wan had left Zi Su alone. Zi Su was a first-class maidservant, so Young Madam should have more things to tell her and ask her.

There was no third person in the room. Yu Wan said indifferently, “Do you have something to ask me?”

Zi Su lowered her eyes and gripped her handkerchief tightly.

“Ask whatever you want.” Yu Wan inserted another Nepenthes into the vase.

Zi Su hesitated and sized up Yu Wan a few times. In the end, she mustered her courage and said, “Did… did Su Mu really poison you, Madam?”

“No,” Yu Wan said without hesitation.

“The arsenic in the tea…” Zi Su opened her mouth. Her rationality told her not to ask further, but she could not suppress the urge in her heart.

Fortunately, Yu Wan did not make things difficult for her for too long. She personally said to her, “That’s right, I did it.”

Zi Su was dumbfounded.

Strictly speaking, it was not too surprising, but guessing was one thing, and hearing Yu Wan admit it herself was another
