Chapter 1226 - Chapter 1226 1226 Su Qingyue Knew It All Along

Chapter 1226: 1226: Su Qingyue Knew It All Along Chapter 1226: 1226: Su Qingyue Knew It All Along “I know,” Su Qingyue smiled lightly, “Just asking casually.” She pointed to one of the side rooms next to the main building, “That room was where your older sister lived.

To hide you, she intentionally had someone install an extra layer of wall in the room and added a bed in the crevice.

You’ve been living there all along, right?”

Jiang Yinzhu was surprised, “How did you know?” Suddenly feeling it was inappropriate to address the young lady as ‘you,’ she corrected herself, “This servant meant no offense.

I just don’t understand how the young lady learned of this?”

“Didn’t you say that I’m very meticulous?” she said nonchalantly, “The first time I entered this haunted house, I saw your sister’s room and, after a look around, noticed the extra layer.

Although the wall was made to look like the others, it was not hard to spot the signs.

There were long-term movement marks on that old cabinet in the room.”

“Then why didn’t you pull me out at that time?”

“I wanted to buy the haunted house, and before the deal went through, scaring away other potential buyers would be to my benefit.

As for why I didn’t reveal you after buying the house…” Su Qingyue spread her hands with boredom, “Lately, I’ve been finding life very boring so…

you like playing ghost, and I thought it offered some entertainment.

Although your Qinggong is not bad, my eyesight is quite sharp.

Watching you fly around the house, watching you jump into the well, I figured you must be using your limbs to grip the edges to avoid falling in, or you would have been soaked through long ago.

Then you climbed out of the well and scared Gao Shen half to death.

Quietly slipping into the carriage to scare Gao Shen…

I found it quite amusing.”

Yinzhu was frustrated, “This servant thought I had scared you and…” She glanced at Xiao Yuchuan, “I thought I had scared you and the son-in-law half to death, but it turns out the young lady was just watching the show.”

“Indeed,” Su Qingyue stood with her hands behind her back, “If it weren’t for the fact that in two days, I need to hire workers to tear down the homestead and rebuild a medicine hall, and if you were to continue playing ghost, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to hire anyone.

I really didn’t want to expose you.”

“When did the young lady poison me?” she wondered, “How come I didn’t notice it?”

“Why do you think I told the third brother the story about the eunuch and the imperial concubine?” Qingyue said with a smile, “Because you were eavesdropping in the yard.

You were so engrossed in listening that you didn’t move a muscle, standing behind the tree, addicted to the tale.

While I continued the story from the kitchen to the yard, why do you think I went out into the yard?

It was to poison you.”

“But…

I didn’t feel you poisoning me.”

“You didn’t even know when the poison powder I flicked from my hand got onto you…” Su Qingyue remarked, “It seems that you, Lady Knight Jiang, are not so extraordinary after all.”

“This servant…” she lowered her head, “This servant called herself Lady Knight.”

“Pfft!” Su Qingyue laughed, “At least you’re being honest.”

Jiang Yinzhu suddenly remembered that she had been unable to move, but at some point, she gained the ability to move again, “Young lady, have you given me the antidote for the poison?”

“I only neutralized the poison I gave you,” Su Qingyue glanced at her discolored skin, “As for the poison in your body…” She pulled out a bottle from her sleeve pocket, “This bottle is for you, it contains detoxifying pills.

That Poison Lady who poisoned you is just a novice.

Take one detoxification pill every day.

There are exactly ten pills inside.

After ten days, your skin color should be restored.”

Yinzhu held the medicine bottle, “Is it that simple?”

Su Qingyue said with an air of nonchalance, “You know how I bought this house, right?
