Chapter 132: A thorough discussion
The damage to the body caused by an accidental miscarriage is already relatively large, and it is not easy for me to conceive because of the cold in my body before, and now it is tantamount to making matters worse by this heavy blow. Fortunately, I was originally studying medicine, and I know that a miscarriage is like a childbirth, and the month after a miscarriage is also called a "small confinement".
Because of this matter, Yinzhen can't continue to investigate for himself, and he feels guilty about me, and I have an additional allocation for the use of the money in this house, as long as I am informed, the things can be used smoothly, and I don't have to care about the routine.
I didn't waste such a privilege, and I used this month with the intention to raise it with the standard of real confinement and make up for the deficit body.
It's already October, and it's starting to snow lightly outside, and the charcoal fire in my house has already been lit. During this period, in addition to Yinzhen often coming to visit, the Wulanala clan also sent people to take a look and send some supplements. When I heard that I had a miscarriage, I gave me a special rice wine from my hometown, saying that it was good for conditioning qi and blood and warming up my body during the confinement period. I took it all in my heart, and asked people to prepare a return gift and send it over.
The tonic sent by the Wulanala clan was privately seen by himself and the imperial doctor, and after confirming that there was no problem, he didn't save it, and he made medicinal food into a medicinal diet and sacrificed it to the Five Organs Mansion.
Since that day, Qian has reduced his love for food, changed his foodie nature, and everything is only in moderation, whether he likes it or not, he will eat a few bites, but he will no longer particularly prefer one or the other. The temperament is not as lively as before, and the whole person is quiet.
Looking at the changes in the Qian family, I don't think it's a bad thing. Sometimes growth is an instantaneous thing, and the allusion of "eating a trench and growing a wisdom" is still very reasonable.
"Are you scared?" I quipped while lying on the bed to Qian who was chatting with me.
Qian's eyes darkened, he pouted, and said softly: "It's not that I'm afraid, it's unwilling." ”
"I'm not willing either, but I can't do anything at this time. You just need to know that the return of the Heavenly Dao Wheel should not be happy, and we will have to get this account back sooner or later. I hooked my lips into a cold smile.
"We have never provoked anyone in our courtyard for no reason, but now we are involved in such a Lao Shizi thing, and it is a pity that my sister lost her child for no reason. Qian nodded and sighed.
"This person's intentions are really sinister, and he even wants to kill several birds with one stone. I said.
"How many carvings with one stone?" Qian frowned and asked, "Didn't that person just want to harm my sister's child and then blame me?"
"This is naturally the main purpose on the surface, but if this matter does not involve you, or if there is no substantial evidence that you did it, you will eventually go back to live in this courtyard, after that, do you think our relationship is still as close as it is now?" I sneered.
"I see, this person is one step and three steps. If I can get out of the way, it will inevitably make my sister and me separate, and then our sisters will have a disagreement. Qian suddenly realized.
"It's not just me and you, but also the fourth master has a dislike for you, you will be the same as the old family, and you will become an unpopular person in this mansion, at that time this person and I will be a one-on-one competition, her chances of winning will inevitably be a few points greater, maybe it is not a person, I am afraid it will be easier to deal with me who is isolated." I said.
"It's really sinister, who does my sister think will do this? Could it be Yi's family, I'm afraid she resents her sister for taking away the favor of the fourth master, and secretly hates me for embarrassing her that day, so she will do such a thing that damages yin morality. ”
"I don't know who did it, but she must have a part in it. But I always felt like there was something else going on here. Especially if I can get purslane into my food, it can be seen that there are people in this courtyard whose hands and feet are not clean. I said.
As for who did it, Yinzhen and I tacitly didn't discuss it, but I knew that he would definitely send someone to investigate. And Xiaoshunzi has not been idle these days, since the day I gave birth, he has often disappeared, and he has his own plans. I didn't ask them about the results of the investigation, because I was afraid that after knowing the results, I would not be able to hold back the pent-up anger in my heart and do something. But I know that this result will definitely be found out by Yinzhen and Xiaoshunzi, and what I have to do now is to take care of my body in order to make a future.
"Then we have to find this person out quickly, otherwise there will be a peaceful birthday to speak of. As soon as Qian heard what I said, he immediately thought of this stubble and hurriedly said.
"No, the one who can approach the kitchenette and put something into my food must be someone close to you and me. But the more cronies you are, the more you can't act rashly, otherwise even if you find out who did it, it will hurt the hearts of others, and when the time comes, you will lose the hearts of others for the sake of such a person, and the gains outweigh the losses. So what we have to do now is to stay quiet and be more careful. I lowered my voice and whispered to Qian.
These words were originally meant to be said to the Qian family by looking for an opportunity, so the people who were waiting in the room had already been screened out. Now, except for Qian and Xiaoshunzi, I have doubts about other people in this courtyard, including Aster. I thought that this might be another purpose of the man's calculations, that is, knowing that I had always valued the people in this courtyard, but I wanted them to separate from me, so that I could keep my doubts about them all day long.
"Sister, do you think it could be that Mama Xia?" Qian still didn't want to believe that this kind of thing was done by those relatives who accompanied him day and night. After thinking for a moment, I naturally thought of the newcomer to the courtyard.
I shook my head and said, "I don't rule it out, but I think it's the least likely." ”
"Why?" asked Qian suspiciously.
"I asked the doctor, and the purslane in the meal was dried and ground into powder and sprinkled in. First of all, Mama Xia was personally selected by Grandpa Su, and because of the pothos incident, the fourth master and Grandpa Su must be doubly careful. Secondly, Mama Xia was arranged to come to the hospital to take care of me to give birth, if something happens to me, the fourth master will bear the brunt of the blame on her, which is more than worth the loss for her. Again, Mama Xia was brought back to the house from the Internal Affairs Office after I was pregnant, not to mention whether she knew that you love to eat purslane, at least because she was new here, we were still wary of her, so I never let her go to the kitchen. Even if she brought in this purslane powder, how could she possibly have a chance to sprinkle it in?" I explained.
"In this way, it really can't be her. Then it can only be the people around us, but when I think about it like this, my heart is even more uncomfortable, and I don't know which white-eyed wolf it is, and I can't even raise a family after so many years, if I let me know who it is, I have to ask this person in person if his conscience was eaten by a dog. Qian gritted his teeth and was fierce.
"Everything can't be absolute, I just said that the possibility of Mama Xia is very small, people's hearts are separated from the belly, now the only people around me who can believe are you and Xiao Shunzi, and you have to be careful about everyone else except me, before the matter is clear, don't let people see the flaws. "I caution carefully.
"Sister, why do you believe that I didn't do it?" Qian suddenly asked.
"Silly girl, you followed me when you entered the mansion before you were thirteen years old, five years have passed, what kind of heart are you, others don't know, don't I know?" I touched her head and said dotingly.
"Sister, thank you, in fact, I even thought at that time, if you don't believe me, then I might as well die. Qian threw his head into my arms and muttered.
Qian lost her mother at a young age and has always longed for maternal love, but there are only her father and brother at home, and such emotions have always been suppressed by her. It wasn't until I entered the house, in that panic and helpless situation, that I became the first person to give her warmth and care, and at the age of twelve or thirteen, she relied on me like a young bird who regarded the first things she saw as a mother, and for so many years, although I was two years older than her in this era, I have always taken care of her as a child, and she has more or less regarded me as the only credible person like a mother and sister. It was precisely because of this understanding of her that even if there was a flash of suspicion at that time, it was immediately denied.
"Why does my sister trust Xiao Shunzi?" Qian looked up at me.
Qian didn't know Xiao Shunzi's identity, she thought that Xiao Shunzi was just an ordinary servant who knew martial arts. When I heard me talk about it, I was very puzzled when there was a credible person in this courtyard besides her.
"Do you still remember the case of Dergege, when I was involved, Xiao Shunzi was arrested and tortured? and Jiao Xing in the Changfu Jin Courtyard asked Xiao Shunzi to kneel on the needleboard to make amends?" I smiled, and the past clearly appeared in front of me.
"Remember," Qian said.
"How can a person grit his teeth and suffer such a heavy lynching, but he still has to protect me, and he doesn't want me to be wronged, how can he be easily taken advantage of and harm me in turn?" I said.
Qian thought for a while and said: "Xiao Shunzi is really a good slave, and it is also a blessing for my sister to have such a person by her side." ”
I didn't smile, but I agreed with her words in my heart. In a critical situation, if it weren't for such a capable and loyal attendant, how could I and the Qian family deal with all kinds of difficulties in the future. In my heart, I have never regarded Xiao Shunzi as a minion, but an existence like an older brother and a best friend. It is a blessing to have such a loyal person to rely on.
"Sister, sometimes I think we are too passive, always framed by others to protect ourselves, so too aggrieved, since this time we can't find out the assassin clearly, then why don't we play backgammon, attack and defend in a way, while they haven't come up with the next move yet, secretly set up a puzzle, take the initiative, let them know that we are not easy to mess with. ”
I was shocked by what Qian said. In the past, she waited for me to make an idea and listened to my arrangement, but after this incident, she seemed to have opened her mind, and finally understood that there are some things that can only be obtained by taking the initiative to fight for them.
As the saying goes, those who are good at playing will be good at planning. From Qian's talent and understanding in the chess game, I have long seen that she is not a dull person, but she was young in the past and liked to rely on everything, so she developed a lazy heart that does not like to use her brain.
But now she is no longer a little girl who is ignorant of the world, and now she is put on the table like this, which naturally arouses her temperament and makes her grow up.
"What do you think we should do now?" I asked.
From the beginning, I didn't think that I would only be a puppet at the mercy of me, but a teammate who fought side by side, so when she said this, I didn't think she was stiff in wings, and I would worry that I wouldn't be able to hold her in the future. Instead, I encouraged her to express her views, hoping that she could take charge of herself in the future and plan for the future with me.
"Since that person wanted to divide us and turn us against us, why didn't we fulfill that person's wish?" Qian smiled slyly, his eyes shining with inspiration.
I thought about it for a while, and then I replied, "Yes, then I will fulfill his wish." ”
After saying this, Qian and I smiled at each other knowingly, and tacitly laid out a good game of chess.
When Qian left my house that day, his expression was cloudy and uncertain, and his face was full of grievances and disappointment. Aster came in without knowing what to do and asked, "Qian Gege was fine when he came in, why did he talk for a long time, and when he went out, he became like this?"
I didn't answer Aster's question, but just said lightly: "In the future, I will walk around less with her courtyard, I know people and faces, but I don't know my heart, and it's always right to pay more attention." ”
Seeing me say this, Aster lowered her voice and asked, "Gege is concerned about purslane in his heart, but if this is the case, why should he keep Qian Gege that day, why not hand it over to his master?"
"Let's not say whether she did it or not, even if it is, it is difficult to conclude without evidence. Besides, these days, can't you see that the fourth master actually likes her in his heart? If I don't say anything, she has not been punished, and she will be favored by the fourth master in the future, the fourth master is afraid that he will think that I am stingy, and he will suspect her regardless of the sisterhood for many years. At that time, the fourth master is afraid that he will have a dislike for me. Now that I have stopped this matter, she owes me no favor, and the fourth master will also feel that I have wronged myself for his sake, so I feel guilty about me, and I must pity me more. Wouldn't that be better than tearing it up?" I sneered.
"The master is really good to Qian Gege, but the slave doesn't like Gege more than he sees it. It is expected that she will not be able to make big waves. Aster said.
After all, she is two years younger than me, and now I look favored, but in another year I will enter the double ten year, and she is the best time. You see that she is no longer greedy now, so it can be seen that she also has some thoughts about the fourth master. When I lose weight in a few days, my figure will naturally appear, and I am afraid that the fourth master's heart will be difficult to say. I said stupidly.
Aster sighed and said: "People's hearts are separated from their stomachs, I didn't expect that Qian Gege, who used to be as good as a person, is not a heart now." ”
In the face of Aster's words, I didn't take the conversation, just silently drank the freshly stewed tonic, and my mind had already flown out of the clouds, thinking about other things. (To be continued.) )
