Chapter Fifty-fifth: On the Clue

The madam immediately said: "That's natural. I will definitely get the person that the third son likes back for him!" There was an air of uncompromising determination in her tone.

Mother Li seemed to have gone back to the days when Mrs. Tai went riding horses and hunting in the mountains with the old man when she was young.

How many years have passed, and it’s really gone forever.

After the winter solstice, Laba Festival is coming soon, and the Laba Festival is arranged in the capital. Families with certain status have to prepare to go to the Kitchen God Temple to offer incense to the Kitchen God Bodhisattva.

The eldest lady also said that she would take Chunge over to join in the fun, but she asked Chen Chunli and Chen Chunyao to stay at home. Seeing Chen Chunli and Chen Chunyao's somewhat unhappy expressions, the eldest lady also pretended not to see it, and talked to Chunge San with a smile.

One person said that the eldest master had already sent a letter to the second master and the third master, asking them to bring their families and the third family together to have a happy New Year reunion when they come to Beijing to report on their work this year.

When Chun Ge returned to the house, her heart was still pounding.

The eldest wife never showed any obvious differences towards her, but this time she was uncharacteristically affectionate and chose her to accompany her to the Temple of the Goddess.

Just now in the eldest lady's room, the eldest lady looked at him with disgust as if she were looking at an enemy. What was the reason for that?

Something seems wrong.

Chun Ge carefully recalled everything he had done in the past ten days.

It seems that after returning from the Li family, the eldest wife began to treat herself a little differently.

Even if the eldest lady tried her best to look affectionate, she couldn't hide the resentment from the bottom of her face.

Some time ago, although the eldest lady was enthusiastic, she was never enthusiastic to the point of flattery. Now she speaks and acts more deliberately, as if she is afraid that she will know something.

Chun Ge suddenly remembered that today when the eldest wife was talking about going to the Kitchen God Temple to worship the Bodhisattva, she repeatedly told her to go and put everything aside.

After living under the third wife's hand for so long, my observation of words and emotions has been integrated into Chun Ge's flesh and blood, turning into a keen intuition.

Chun Ge felt that even if she couldn't figure out what mistake she had made and offended the eldest lady, she must not take it lightly, so she asked Jade to come and tell her all the gossip that she had heard from everyone in the house in the past few days.

Jade didn't know why, but she honestly told Chun Ge all the gossip she heard.

All the servants could say was that the eldest master went to which aunt's house a few more times, or which steward had embezzled money, and whose daughter-in-law was most valued by the master. The eldest young master took in another family's son as his wife, and he was very angry.

Grandma lost her temper for several days.

What other official family was trapped in a brothel by his wife, or whose young master gambled on his concubine on horse racing, which made the old lady of the family faint.

Things were very trivial, but Chun Ge listened very carefully and even asked Fei Cui to explain it in more detail.

The more trivial and messy things seem to be insignificant, the more important they may be.

In this place in the capital, a single move can affect the whole body, and anything may mess up the eldest wife's plan, causing the eldest lady to suddenly change her attitude.

When Feicui mentioned that Prince Miao, the only son of the Jingyuan Marquis Mansion, was punished by the Empress Dowager to go to Jingshan Mountain to meditate for half a month because he blocked the sedan chair of a royal family's daughter, a light flashed in Chun Ge's mind.

Jingshan, the Zao Temple is located in Jingshan!

"You said that Zhou Yan was detained by the Queen Mother and sent to Jingshan Mountain for meditation."
