Chapter 4 Suspicion
Lan Ying said: "Go and see Xueer, she is in a bad mood today."
"Okay." Zhimu returned to her original indifference and smiled, "Then I'll go first."
Lan Ying nodded and smiled, "Take the food box on the table away. I made the snacks. You have been busy all day, so eat some."
"Yes." He stepped forward and picked up the food box. He was about to go out, but he ran into Yu Niang head-on.
Zhimu smiled and said, "Godmother, what's wrong?"
Yu Niang gasped and said, "Just just now, someone sent to pass the message, saying that General Mu was assassinated and had a funeral tomorrow."
"Ah, he is dead?" Lan Ying said in surprise, "Who killed?"
Yu Niang shook her head and said, "I don't know, I heard that it was the killer who specialized in killing officials during this period."
Lan Ying said: "Mu'er, come with me tomorrow to worship, you can go and rest first."
"Yeah." Zhimu nodded and went out. He knew that Lan Ying had something to tell Yu Niang that it was inconvenient for him.
Seeing Zhimu leave, Lan Ying quickly signaled Yu Niang to sit down and asked, "He didn't offend anyone, why was he killed?"
Yu Niang said: "I heard from Jingzhao Mansion that it was a revenge. It was shot through the throat and killed him with one move. I heard that he used his own blood to write two words on the floor before he died."
Lan Ying asked, "What word?"
"Gintama." Yu Niang said, "These two words are strange, I don't know what they mean."
"Gintama." Lan Ying suddenly opened her eyes wide and said, "My husband's spear is called Gintama Spear, this..."
"But the master has passed away." Yu Niang said.
Lan Ying said: "But the master has always regarded that gun as a treasure, but I remember Mu'er returned from helping the spirit, but the gun didn't come back. What's going on?"
Yu Niang said: "Someone took the master's Gintama Gun and killed Murray?"
"You just said he died of being pierced through his throat?" Lan Ying asked.
"Yeah." Yu Niang said, "I didn't even have the ability to resist with one shot. The opponent's martial arts are far higher than Murray."
Lan Ying said: "What does this person have to do with the master? This shot is also used by the master's shooting skills. Why did he kill him?"
Yu Niang said, "Madam, there are no one in the Gong family now. We should not care about it and just live our own lives."
Lan Ying said: "I pity my Gong family members are weak. They are just such a thing, and they are so incompetent."
Yu Niang said, "Madam, I say something, don't be angry."
"Tell me, we sisters have been doing decades, what can we say?" Lan Ying said softly.
Yu Niang said: "Do you think the young master is not like you or the master at all? It's unreasonable. You have a gentle personality and the master is so gentle. There's no reason to say that the young master will be like this."
Lan Ying said helplessly: "I have thought about this countless times, but I have no clue and no reason. Why is his personality so perverse and his quality so bad? Even if I have been educated since I was a child."
Yu Niang said: "Do you think he looks particularly like a cousin, even with a temper..."
"She?" Lan Ying suddenly fell silent and asked again, "After all, she is my cousin and has a blood relationship. It's not surprising that Gong Feng will be like him."
Yu Niang said, "It's no reason not to look like you and the master. Sometimes, when Mu'er stands beside you, I feel that he is your son, so similar."
"What? Do you think Mu'er is like me?" Lan Ying said in surprise.
"Some people say so?" Yu Niang asked.
Lan Ying said: "One time I took him to collect the bills, and the tenants treated him as my son in unanimous ways. I asked them why, and they said Mu'er was very similar to me, and I was indecently kind to him."
Yu Niang said, "It's not just a lot like it, but even every frown and smile is the same. He is often by my side. I can see this clearly and even like it. And my father also said something that he can see the master's appearance back then."
"What do you want to say?" Lan Ying asked.
Yu Niang said: "I have a very terrible idea, you should understand?"
Lan Ying said: "You mean Mu'er is my son, but how is this possible? What about Gong Feng, he has never left me since he was a child, and I have only given birth to such a son, how can one more out of thin air?"
Yu Niang said, "You should remember that Miss Cousin's child was born here, and it was only one day away. I shouldn't have doubted it, but over the years, she has been so kind to the young master. You always think she has lost the child and will care about the young master, but I didn't see her at all."
"You mean she dropped her two children?" Lan Ying shook her head and said, "It's impossible, you know. The men in our Gong family will have a tattoo on the back. It's the symbol of the family. They have tattoos since birth. Gong Feng has this."
"This is easy to fake. In fact, it's very simple. Just look for Mu'er and see if there is a tattoo on his back. Wouldn't you know?" Yu Niang replied.
"This..." Lan Ying hesitated a little.
She thought for a while and said helplessly: "This is too bizarre. Even if my cousin secretly changed the child, Zhimu would be too coincidental?"
Yu Niang said, "What if it wasn't a coincidence?"
"What do you mean..." Lan Ying asked.
Yu Niang said, "You said Mu'er doesn't want to marry Xue'er, right? But he is very kind to Xue'er. He has no affection between men and women. So why is he like this? Moreover, he hates the young master and Miss Cousin. Every time she comes, I can feel the hatred in him."
Lan Ying was a little surprised at this moment. She didn't say these words, but she had never thought about them so much. She hurriedly said, "Then why didn't you say them earlier?"
Yu Niang said: "I was the only one I thought of when you told me today that Muer always regarded Xueer as her sister."
Lan Ying said: "But this is too incredible. Are you saying Mu'er knows everything? If he is really my son and knows that I am his mother, how can he not recognize me?"
Yu Niang said, "What if he has a hidden secret?"
"Unsense of indescribable?" Lan Ying asked in confusion, "Did you already know something?"
"I remember when Zhimu came back with the master's remains, he was wearing mourning clothes. If it were just the master's documents, why would this be the case?"
Lan Ying was so surprised that she couldn't speak for a long time. At the end, she couldn't believe it: "What the hell is going on?"
