Chapter 34: Late at Night
Xu Lian really can't wait to disappear in front of everyone's eyes now, and it is better to dig a hole in the ground to hide. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info also saves from being burdened by this brainless banquet doctor!
Since Su Qingyuan had already sent someone to hire another doctor, hadn't he already begun to suspect that Doctor Yan had misdiagnosed? His eyes frequently swept in the direction where he was, if Su Qingyuan saw it, how could he not suspect himself! Xu Lian scolded Doctor Yan and the mouthy maid Hongcao in her heart, and glared at Doctor Yan.
"Mother, why do you keep glaring at the banquet doctor, are your eyes uncomfortable?" Su Qi's voice full of confusion was not loud or small, just enough for everyone present to hear.
Xu Lian's expression froze for a moment, and soon returned to normal, "Mother is looking at Xiao Qi's wound." ”
Su Qi blinked, not intending to argue with Xu Lian on this topic, but instead moved his gaze to Bi Tao, who had never spoken. Bi Tao's complexion has long since lost its ruddy paste, and her body is shaking like a sifting chaff, and her little face is wrinkled.
"Bi Tao, what's going on?" The person who asked the question was Su Qingyuan, and Bi Tao was the girl he put in Su Qiyuan after he personally saw it, so he still had a little impression of Bi Tao's appearance.
Bi Tao's knees trembled even more than her body, and after shaking a few times, she finally knelt down in the direction where Su Qingyuan was, "Master, Bi Tao has been loyal to the eldest lady since she entered Qingfeng Residence, Bi Tao has not harmed the eldest lady, there is no ......."
"You are talking nonsense! I can see it clearly, you put medicine in Miss's bath water, and the yellow paper containing the medicine is still on your body! Miss is only injured because she touched the water mixed with medicine, and you dare to quibble here!" In vain, she thought that Bi Tao was a kind-hearted person, but she didn't expect her to be so brazen, and she refused to admit it when she did bad things.
Su Qi looked up at the sky, a thin moon hid in the clouds at some point, and the few starlights were chased by the dark and heavy black clouds, and soon disappeared.
Tonight is destined to be an uneven night.
"Bi Tao, tell me, why do you want to drug my water?" Su Qi suddenly spoke, and for a moment there was no sound except for Bi Tao's low and forbearant sobs.
"Miss treats me well, I ...... How could I harm Miss? That, there is no problem with that powder, it is the knowledge book that gives it to me, and it says...... It is an ancestral recipe of her family, and when used in water, it can make people's skin white and healthy, and also help to sleep peacefully. The slave maid has been taken care of by Miss since she entered Qingfeng Ju, Miss is the best master that the slave maid has ever seen, the slave maid wants to repay Miss, the slave maid really did not harm Miss......" The more she said about the back, the more Bi Tao's voice choked, and the tears in her eyes were more turbulent, and in the end, it was like someone grabbed her throat alive, and she couldn't say it anymore.
With a 'snap', Bi Tao's whole person was suddenly slapped and fell directly to the ground, and one cheek swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye.
This scene shocked everyone present, not including, of course, the person who slapped him.
"What a, if you want to excuse yourself, you don't want to find a good excuse, your words are full of loopholes, are you so foolish to be the old lady and the young lady?" Mother Jiang shook off Shi Cai's wrist, which was a little sore due to excessive force, and slashed Bi Tao, who was trembling on the ground, and changed her expression and turned to Su Qingyuan: "The old slave has long heard that this Bi Tao is restless in private, and this incident happened before he could tell the master, and he asked the master to punish him." ”
During this period, Bi Tao struggled to get up and wanted to speak, but was slapped by Jiang's mother and fell down.
Cuiluo Hongcao couldn't bear to see it, in the end, it was a maid who had lived in a courtyard for so long, although they couldn't accept Bi Tao's drug to harm Su Qi, it could be seen that Bi Tao was beaten so that both sides of her face were swollen, and she couldn't help but feel a little distressed.
Xu Lian is the head mother of the Su family, and Mother Jiang, who is Xu Lian's nurse and confidant, naturally has a low position in the back house of the Su Mansion, and she doesn't sound inappropriate when she says this.
Su Qingyuan waved his hand and signaled that Mother Jiang didn't need to say any more, "It's still mine to talk about this, it's because I didn't pick a good maid for Xiao Qi, so Xiao Qi was wronged." Xiao Qi, don't worry, Dad will definitely find a few better maids for you, and your injury, Dad will definitely ask the best doctor to treat you!"
Su Qingyuan said with a ashamed face, but looked at Xu Lian, who was standing on the side, and his face turned green.
"The maids that my father adjusted for Xiao Qi are very good, Xiao Qi likes it very much, and Xiao Qi's injury is actually not very painful, but if Xiao Qi's injury is not a scald, Xiao Qi's mother's scald Xiao Qi will not be used, but it is a pity that his mother's heart. Su Qi frowned and bit his lower lip, looking a little aggrieved.
As soon as she said this, she pointed the finger at Xu Lian again.
Sensing Su Qingyuan's scrutinizing gaze, Xu Lian unconsciously got goosebumps. But she knew that if she showed even the slightest abnormality at this moment, it would definitely arouse his suspicion, so Xu Lian sighed silently in her heart, and looked at Su Qingyuan with her usual expression, her eyes were open and natural.
She was born as a concubine, and has survived in the bottomless back house for decades, and has long been familiar with how to disguise her emotions. If not, he would not have earned a reputation for being gentle, virtuous, generous, and generous.
Su Qingyuan just glanced at Xu Lian lightly, and then all his eyes fell on Su Qi's body. His daughter, if Shuying knew that her daughter was injured, she didn't know what she would be distressed about! Su Qingyuan slowly held Su Qi's hair, and said in a voice so low that only one person could hear it: "I promised you that you would take care of our daughter, otherwise she would be half wronged, don't worry, I will definitely keep my promise and not let you bother to worry about it." ”
Xu Lian understood Su Qingyuan's expression just by looking at it, and it was this expression again, he remembered that short-lived ghost again! Xu Lian's deep and long nails almost pinched into the flesh, and a sharp pain spread all over her body in an instant, and it was this pain that made her sober. That short-lived ghost is dead, even if she hates her again, it won't help, but this eight-year-old girl in front of her, right in front of her, she has many ways to deal with her!
Don't worry, the days are still long...... Xu Lian said this in her heart, and the smile on her face became deeper and deeper.
The doctor invited by Su Qingyuan quickly arrived, checked Su Qi's pulse and checked the wound, and the doctor concluded that Su Qi's injury was caused by medicine rather than burns, and the yellow paper found on Bi Tao's body was also determined to have the medicinal powder that caused Su Qi's injury to remain.
Bi Tao had already been beaten by Jiang's mother and couldn't say anything, she only knew that she was pulling the corner of Su Qi's skirt, looking at Su Qi with teary eyes, and her bloodshot lips opened and closed as if she was saying something.
Su Qi couldn't help but get closer, and barely heard the words that Bi Tao said.
"Miss, believe me, believe me......"
