No matter whether Lin Chujiu can accept it or not, people can't resurrect. And the fact that Meng Laofuren died has long been confirmed. Lin Chujiu crying heartily will not bring the old lady back to life.
When Lin Chujiu calmed down, the Old Mama finally ended up saying the reason why Meng Laofuren kept calling her name.
"Young Miss, laofuren will not rest in peace if you do this. You have to be good, don't let laofuren worry about you." The Old Mama has also calmed down at this time.
When Meng Laofuren had a heart attack, she knew that this will come sooner or later. But, she didn't expect it to be this soon.
However, it's alright now. At least the old lady was no longer suffering.
"It's my fault, I came late, if I come early, grandmother will be fine." Lin Chujiu regretted and hated it. If the empress didn't join in, she doesn't need to enter the Lingyun Courtyard. She will be able to come and save her grandmother.
Who cares if she can't save her in the end, right? At least, she can be with the old lady, who only loved her, and will not leave with regret.
"Young Miss, this is not your fault." The Old Mama wiped her tears and lowered her voice: "Young Miss, laofuren is killed."
"What did you say?" Lin Chujiu was stupefied, her tears immediately stopped. Her eyes got fixed at the old mama.
The Old Mama explained the events one by one: "Ever since laofuren got sick, this slave will come over to see her three to four times at night. Today is no exception, but I didn't expect to see laofuren lying on the floor. No one was around her. The maidservants watching her at night were found dead after half an hour."
"The doctor arrived on time. So, despite the danger, laofuren was saved. But after she woke up, she kept calling your name. Seeing you haven't come for a long time, laofuren got emotional and get more and more worried."
"Young Miss, this slave suspect that someone must have said something about you to laofuren. Because after that, laofuren became extremely worried… …"
She told these things to Lin Chujiu, not because she blamed her for the old lady's death, but because she hoped Lin Chujiu to find out the truth and avenge the old lady.
"I killed my grandmother?" After hearing this, what else she shouldn't understand?
Because Meng Laofuren was worried about her, she became emotional. And because she waited for a long time, she became more and more emotional.
It's all because of her… …
The Old Mama constantly shook her head: "No, no, young miss, you mustn't think like this. Laofuren was killed by someone else. Young Miss, you shouldn't put this crime on to your head."
The Old Mama then looked at Meng Laofuren as she wiped her tears: "Young Miss, laofuren left us like this. But, Laofuren is also proud, how can she allow herself to lie in bed like this forever? If laofuren is not worried about you, then… … she must have left a long time ago."
The Old Mama knew that Meng Laofuren has no chance to recover. She will only lie, eat, drink in the bed, unable to take care of her own self, which was a big shame for someone as proud as the old lady. Her pride and dignity will not allow her to accept her condition.
Lin Chujiu didn't speak, she only closed her eyes in pain, she couldn't stop blaming herself.
The Old Mama doesn't know how she to persuade Lin Chujiu, she could only change the topic: "Young Miss, this slave didn't tell this to others. After all, even if master knew that laofuren's death is strange, I'm afraid that he wouldn't be able to find anything. You must find out the real murderer and avenge laofuren."
After the Old Mama finished, she knelt in front of Lin Chujiu and knocked her head on the floor three times.
"Mama, get up quickly. You don't need to say anything, I will do it eventually. Lin Chujiu stretched her arm to help the Old Mama, but the Old Mama refused, she kept sticking her forehead to the floor: "With Young Miss words, this slave is relieved. Young Miss, Master Meng is waiting for you outside. This slave is going to change laofuren's clothes. Laofuren lived as a noble all her life. There's no reason for her to wear ordinary clothes like this."
"Good." Lin Chujiu knows that the Old Mama will eventually change Meng Laofuren's clothes. There is no reason for her disturb her.
When she got up, she looked at the old lady emotionally. Lin Chujiu stopped crying, but she knelt once again.
"Grandmother, I' sorry." Lin Chujiu knelt in front of the bed and bowed her head three times, then she went outside firmly.
She won't, she will never let go of that person who killed her grandmother.
No matter who it is, that person will pay the price!

When Lin Chujiu came out, she asked Meng Shi where are the two dead maidservants.
"They are still in their room, I'm ready to report this case to the officials by daybreak." Although Meng Shi was not a capable master, he was not stupid. Of course, he knows that there was something strange about this matter. However, just like what the Old Mama said, even though he knew something was wrong, he has no way to find out.
"Take me there to see them." Lin Chujiu said with red eyes.
Everyone knows that Meng Laofuren's death was related to the two maidservants. Seeing Lin Chujiu wanted to see the two people's corpse, everyone understands it.
"I will take you there." Meng Dafuren stood up.
Meng Laofuren's death forced Meng Dafuren to grow a backbone.
Because the two maidservants take care of the old lady, they live in the backyard not far away from her.
The two maidservants lived in one room together. Meng Dafuren concluded that the other one strangled her companion to death before she killed herself. Lin Chujiu refused to accept this conclusion. She let the maidservant next to her to open the door and enter with the lantern.
The ground under the maidservant's feet was an ordinary ground. When she walked in, there were footprints. Lin Chujiu also came in, but stared at the ground for a long time… …
Meng Dafuren was standing outside, so she saw Lin Chujiu's strange behavior. She was puzzled by this, but she didn't say anything.
The footprints on the ground were very messy. It seemed like many people walked in recently. The footsteps were overlapping each other, there was no proper direction at all.
Lin Chujiu went in and walked over to the bedside. Not so far from the bed, she found two deep footprints. From its size and depth, it should belong to a woman who carried a heavy object.
Looking at the two dead bodies lying on the bed side by side and their shoes. Lin Chujiu was sure that the deep footprints don't belong to the two deceased. If her inference was right, the murderer killed them outside and carried them into this room.
Obviously, this room was not the first scene of the crime.
So, where is the first scene?
Whose footprints are those?
This, this matter must be checked clearly. If not, she will not be able to live in peace for the rest of her life!
