Chapter 31: Changing the water
Mei Yixuan walked around the room as if unintentionally, taking the opportunity to check all the furnishings in the house, trying to find out where Aunt Tong was poisoned. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Everything in the Forgotten Moon Residence is almost the same as that of Ziyue Garden, but some items are not as good as those in Mei Yixuan's house. For example, the tent on the bed, the tea set on the table in the outer hall, and the screen between the living room and the study are all still from a few years ago, and they haven't been changed for a few years.
From here, it can also be seen how unfavored Aunt Tong is, and it is no wonder that the eldest lady can punish her so unscrupulously and casually on trumped-up charges. An unfavored aunt is not as good as a third-class maid, this is really not a joke, but a living reality.
Mei Yixuan checked all the items in the room, even Aunt Tong's underwear, shoes and socks, but she didn't find anything suspicious.
It made her wonder if she had gone down to eat? Because there is an unwritten unspoken rule in the house, the master eats the leftover meals, and the maids and grandmothers who have a good face will share the meals after the master finishes eating. If the food is poisonous, at least Mama Chang and Chuncui will also be poisoned. However, she looked at Mama Chang and Chuncui, her face was as usual, and there was no sign of poisoning.
Strange, what the hell is going on?
Just as Mei Yixuan was frowning and thinking hard, she heard that Chuncui, who was buying medicine outside, came back.
Mei Yixuan hurriedly walked outside, and saw Chuncui carrying a string of medicine bags, sweating profusely. When she saw Mei Yixuan coming out, she panted and said, "Miss, this is three days of medicinal materials, Sun Langzhong said that he would change the prescription after three days, for fear that we would get confused, Sun Langzhong only gave three days of medicine." ”
At this time, Mama Chang, who was busy building the stove, hurriedly came over and commanded silently: "Hurry up and bring the firewood over, light the fire and fry it, Shucui put the medicine hanging on the stove, and Mother Deng is responsible for decocting the medicine, hurry up!"
Mei Yixuan didn't rush forward, but took a look at it when Mrs. Deng opened the medicine bag, and sure enough, they were all detoxifying herbs, honeysuckle, licorice, mung beans and the like. These herbs are actually all-purpose antidotes and are effective against any poison.
Mei Yixuan pretended to be curious and squatted in front of the stove, looking straight at the medicine hanger on the stove. The people next to him thought that Mei Yixuan was not at ease, and personally took care of the medicine stove on the side. In fact, Mei Yixuan's consciousness had already entered the space, and in an instant, he changed the water in the medicine pendant and replaced it with the water in the space pool.
Since Chuncui followed to buy medicine, Mei Yixuan entered the space by checking items in the house, not only did no one notice it, but she changed the tea in the living room to the water in the space, and completed it unconsciously with her consciousness, which made her happy all of a sudden.
Although she still hasn't figured out what the function of the current space is, it is true that the water in the pool can cure diseases. If Aunt Tong could drink the space water every day, then the poison in her body might be lifted.
Mei Yixuan finished changing the water, and the mood that had been depressed was finally relaxed. No matter how Aunt Tong is the biological mother of this body, how can she watch her die like this?
However, Aunt Tong didn't have the slightest clue how to get poisoned, Mei Yixuan filtered all the possibilities, and still didn't find any clues.
Aunt Tong's activities in a day are just the world of forgetting the moon and dwelling, nothing more than food, clothing, housing, transportation, eating, drinking, and Lazar, all of which have not been discovered, which can only show the cleverness of the poisoner's methods.
Mei Yixuan decided not to go back today, and by the way, asked Mama Ye to bring over the few taels of silver she had left. Alas, it seems that everything else can be left alone, but the matter of silver is the most important thing.
It's okay to say that the key is that Aunt Tong is a medicine jar, and these few taels of silver are just a drop in the bucket, and they can't solve the fundamental problem.
It stands to reason that Aunt Tong is so seriously injured, needless to say, the eldest lady, shouldn't the old lady take the help of the Yueju? She doesn't believe that the old lady doesn't know the actual situation of the Yueju.
Mei Yixuan was thinking about it, Xingyu walked out of the house and said to Mei Yixuan: "Miss, it's almost time for lunch, shouldn't we go back?"
Mei Yixuan looked at the hour, but no, it should be at least a quarter of noon now. However, she didn't plan to go back, so she ordered: "Xingyu, you go and tell Mama Ye to ask her to bring the few taels of silver in her hand, and you can go to the small kitchen to bring the food here for lunch." I'm not going back today, I'm going to eat at the Moon House. ”
Xingyu originally wanted to say something, but after thinking about Mei Yixuan's current temper, she swallowed her words back, agreed, and hurriedly walked out.
At this time, Chuncui came over with the boiled medicine, and Mei Yixuan also followed into the house, watching Chuncui, Xia Bo, and Yiyu waiting for Aunt Tong to drink the medicine.
However, because Aunt Tong fell into a deep coma, the medicine couldn't be poured in.
Mei Yixuan stepped forward and grabbed Aunt Tong's jaw, and Aunt Tong was forced to open her mouth. Chuncui hurriedly picked up the medicine spoon and fed the bowl of medicine little by little.
Mama Chang had already brought the tea in the small living room, and asked Chuncui to feed some more water before putting Aunt Tong down.
When Aunt Tong lay down, she moaned unconsciously, which made everyone present very happy. Anyway, Aunt Tong is the master they rely on for survival, although this master is not very favored, but she has never scolded them, and she is always kind. Therefore, they want this master to live well from the bottom of their hearts.
The subordinates who are on errands with other masters seem to be beautiful, but they are always on the lookout, and they may be angry with them when the master is unhappy. A beating is light, and when it is serious, a small life is gone.
Mei Yixuan saw that the maids and servants were happy from the bottom of her heart, and carefully recalled Aunt Tong's daily words and deeds, and understood the mood of the people.
In ancient times, slaves did not have the right to life, and their lives were in the hands of their masters. When the master is happy, his life can be guaranteed, and when the master is unhappy, they may lose their lives at any time.
Aunt Tong is a woman with a gentle temperament and a kind heart, she treats all her subordinates equally, and has never beaten or scolded. She used her personality charm to conquer a group of minions, which was not easy in Aunt Tong's dangerous Mei Mansion.
The subordinates have all become human spirits, and it has become instinct to see the wind and steer the rudder, seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, but in Forgotten Moon Residence, Mei Yixuan saw the kind nature hidden in the hearts of the subordinates, which made her feel a little comforted and somewhat relieved.
In a blink of an eye, it was time for lunch, and the maids brought the food from the big and small kitchens and ate lunch separately.
Mei Yixuan also gave the little silver tael she had left to Mama Chang, Mama Chang seemed to have known that Mei Yixuan would do this, hesitated for a moment, and then took it.
Mei Yixuan ordered the maids to go out to rest, and the apricot rain and drifting snow also made Mei Yixuan stay in the maid's house in the Forgotten Moon Residence. Chang Mama Mei Yixuan also let her go to her own room to rest, and only the sleeping Aunt Tong and Mei Yixuan were left in the east room.
