Chapter 151 Yu Han Plans to Pretend to Be a Fool to Investigate the Truth (Yu Han Goes to Work at th

Yu Han quickly found the four concubines who had been kicked out by the master back then, and investigated them one by one, but found no clues.

The four concubines were kicked out of the Gu family compound by the master. Soon after, they all started their own families and had their own children. They all lived happily.

Even if the four concubines couldn't bear sons when they were concubines in the Gu family, and were driven away by the master in a fit of anger, they couldn't possibly harm the master and mistress, or their eldest daughter and only son!

The four concubines were unable to conceive while they were in the Gu family. This was due to Master Gu's body and had nothing to do with them. Even if there was internal strife among the concubines, it was just infighting among them. They couldn't let Master Gu die in the end, leaving them without their support and now living a life of hardship and destitution.

Therefore, Yu Han could not find any motive for murder among the four concubines.

Then Yu Han left and went to "Paipai". She had reported the case some time ago, but had been waiting for any news from Paipai.

The street detective chief still told her that the case was still under investigation, and that she should go back and wait for further investigation.

Then Yu Han changed direction and went to investigate another place. Yu Han came to the teahouse that the old master used to frequent. This teahouse was a melting pot of all sorts of people, and all kinds of people gathered there.

She thought she might be able to glean some useful information here. As soon as she stepped into the teahouse, she was met with a cacophony of noise. Yu Han found a corner to sit down, ordered a pot of tea, and discreetly surveyed her surroundings.

Just then, she saw an old man in a tattered long gown drinking alone in silence. Yu Han went up to him and struck up a conversation. After some pleasantries, she brought up the matter of the Gu family.

The old man's eyes suddenly became wary, but seeing that Yu Han was just a young girl, he hesitated for a moment before speaking. It turned out that the master had had a dispute with someone here, and the other party seemed to be an enemy he had made in the business world.

Yu Han was startled and continued to press for details about the man's appearance. The old man's description was vague, but he provided several key clues.

After thanking the old man, Yu Han hurriedly left the teahouse, determined to follow this new clue. Perhaps the real culprit was hiding behind it all. As long as she continued the investigation, she could uncover the truth behind the Gu family tragedy.

When Yang Yuhan returned to the Gu residence, the twenty-odd servants there, following her instructions before she left, cleaned the courtyard spotlessly. They also had a maid and another maid carry the large pot of a beautiful white peony that had been placed in the courtyard and throw it out.

Wang Huanhuan was momentarily stunned. He saw that Bai Mudan had always been taken care of by the eldest young master of the family, but now she had been abandoned. He wondered what kind of trouble she would cause when he came back!

But the young lady's orders could not be disobeyed, so they simply threw them away. Both maids noticed bloodstains on some of the petals!

The white peony flowers were beautiful, but they bore the bloodstains of the master and mistress! After the servants finished cleaning up, the courtyard was left without a trace of the tragedy!

The young maid, Wang Huanhuan, was directing the old women in the back kitchen of the courtyard to prepare dinner for everyone in the family, from servants to servants, on the large stove.

The servants sat together in the kitchen to eat, while the master of the house, Yang Yuhan, ate white rice, lotus seed soup, and more than twenty other high-quality dishes whose names she did not know in the main room.

Wang Huanhuan suddenly called out, "Young Miss, Young Master is back!"

"Pfft!" A mouthful of lotus seed soup was spat out of the young lady's mouth.

A moment later, a young man's voice came from outside, "Gu Xiaofan, come out here. Did you throw away my white peony flowerpot? When I bought it, you found it an eyesore, saying that white flowers were unlucky. How can you be so superstitious at such a young age? You secretly took it away while I wasn't home. I'm going to call Mom to teach you a lesson."

Then he shouted, "Mom, Mom, your son is back! Mom, come out quickly, look what your young lady has done to my white peony!"

Yu Han initially thought she had misheard and that he was calling someone else. It wasn't until later that she realized she had heard Wang Huanhuan mention that the original owner's name was Gu Yifan.

Then she put down her chopsticks and looked out the window. She saw a handsome young man in a white dress walking straight toward the house of the master and mistress of the East Gate, calling out to them.

He still doesn't know what happened at home? He's been gone for over two months without going home to visit.

Yang Yuhan hurriedly went out to stop him, fearing that the white mourning tent set up for the master and mistress beforehand by Steward Wang might frighten this handsome young man who was inexperienced in the ways of the world.

Then she quickly went outside and called out, "Brother."

The handsome young man stopped immediately upon hearing her call, and said in a daze, "Miss, are you dizzy or have amnesia? You called me 'brother'?"

Just as Yang Yuhan was feeling very awkward, Wang Huanhuan quickly walked out from the back of the servants' kitchen and towards Gu Yiming, the eldest young master of the Gu family, and then said,

"Young Master, you're finally back. You have no idea, Miss had a high fever recently and is only just recovered. Her memory isn't what it used to be, and she's started treating you like her younger brother."

Yang Yuhan smiled gently at Wang Huan, then quickly agreed, "Yes, yes, young master."

“Young Master, you didn’t call me Young Master before.”

Wang continued slowly, "Yes, the young lady always calls you Young Master."

Yu Han smiled and said to Gu Yiming, "Yes, young master, I'm just one word short of calling you that. Young master, please come to my room. The master and mistress are a bit tired from managing the rice shop these past few days and are resting."

"Not even one word can be missing."

Wang added slowly, "Yes, young master, there isn't a single person in this courtyard who would dare to call you by the wrong name. When the young lady first woke up from her coma, she didn't even recognize me. These past few days, the master and mistress have been talking about you, saying they miss you and don't know where you've gone or contacted the family. Then the master and mistress said they want you to stay in the young lady's room for a few days because they're tired and need to rest."

"I say, aren't you being a bit too nosy today, little maid? I've never seen you talk so much nonsense before."

Gu Yiming frowned and glanced at Wang Huanhuan, but ultimately followed Yu Han to her house. Once inside, Yu Han pondered how to obtain useful information from Gu Yiming without him discovering the truth.

"Young Master, you've been away for so long, have you heard of any deep-seated feuds Father has made with in the business world?" Yu Han asked tentatively.

"Business? Why are you asking about that, little sister? Father has always been a kind man, but I heard him mention a businessman surnamed Chen recently, and it seems there's some conflict between them." Gu Yiming paused for a moment and then said, recalling the situation.

Yu Han's heart stirred; this might be a new breakthrough. Just then, a commotion suddenly came from outside the door, as if someone had broken into the Gu residence.

Yu Han and Gu Yiming exchanged a glance and hurriedly went out to check. They saw a group of men in black standing in the courtyard, one of whom, the leader, shouted loudly, "Listen up, Gu family members! Your troubles are all because you offended the wrong people in the rice business."

Yu Han realized that this group of people must be related to the Gu family tragedy. She clenched her fists and secretly vowed to find out the truth and protect the remaining members of the Gu family.

Gu Yiming, looking bewildered and angry, demanded, "Who are you? What trouble has befallen our family?"

The man in black did not answer, and then quickly left.

Yang Yuhan plans to go to work at her family's rice shop in person, while secretly investigating the truth by playing the fool.

Then she stopped hiding the bizarre murder of the Gu family's patriarch and patriarch. She wondered what the eldest young master would do after learning about the tragedy that had occurred in the Gu family. Would he continue to act recklessly as before?
