Chapter 32: Calculation within Calculation

Gu Zhirong turned around and ordered: "Cai Qing, clean Mingyue's house, let Mu Jin live, wash the bedding and everything, you go and talk to the eldest lady, let the treasury transfer it." ”

Cai Qing responded.

Gu Zhirong thought for a while, and then said: "Cai Qing, go to the drawer in the second compartment of the upper floor of the Duobao Pavilion inside, and take out the light green bottle, that medicine has the effect of invigorating blood and dissolving stasis, when you go to get the futon, send this bottle to Mingyue in the miscellaneous room by the way." ”

Cai Qing looked at Gu Zhi for a long time, his eyes seemed to be watery, his voice was slightly choked, and he said in a low voice: "The slave has written it down, so I will send it over." ”

Agarwood Temple.

This courtyard is built on the edge of a pond, it is also the courtyard of Sanjin, which is much larger than Liuyun Courtyard, the main hall and the side rooms in the house are very spacious, the canopy of trees and mountains inside, and the shade everywhere, it is a good place to escape the heat. At the same time, there is also a cool breeze pavilion that is half above the water, the window is hollowed, hanging with bamboo mats, the cool breeze is blowing on weekdays, the bamboo curtain is pulled up, only when taking a break at noon, hanging down the bamboo mat to cover the sun, it has become a natural leisure place.

At this time, the bamboo curtains on the four sides of the Cool Breeze Pavilion hung down, but the people inside were not idle.

"Miss, this thing slave maid brought you into the house. It was Ziyan who spoke, a first-class girl about thirteen or fourteen years old, wearing a hibiscus flower skirt, with a pair of slender eyes, and curved eyebrows like a moon on a string.

The fourth lady, Gu Yuanqin, was dressed in a water-green dress, and her waist was tied with a green jade belt, which had a lovely demeanor. At this time, she sat upright in front of the mahogany round table, supporting her pink cheeks, and carefully examined the Nine Turns Qiankun pot placed on it to identify its authenticity.

Finally, her eyes fell on the inside of the handle, where there was a faint mark of a plum blossom, and if you looked at it roughly, she thought it was the texture left by the making of the pot.

"Sure enough, it is the masterpiece of the master of the mechanism, Hua Boxu, and even this unique mark is so hidden. The fourth lady finally breathed a sigh of relief and nodded with satisfaction.

Just about to say that this broken pot is ordinary, why is it worth eight hundred taels of silver, the big girl Huan Ziyan hurriedly swallowed the words that were about to rush out of her mouth, and said in an admiring tone: "Miss, is this really Master Hua's handiwork? That's great." The implication of her words was that the eight hundred taels of silver were not in vain.

The fourth lady glanced at her, snorted and said, "Don't feel sorry for the eight hundred taels of silver, if I hadn't entrusted someone and left the relationship, I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to buy one thousand eight hundred taels of silver." This pot is a treasure, and it is not something that needs to be discarded after using it once. ”

Of course, Ziyan knew that her young lady always had a long-term vision in doing things, so she nodded hurriedly and said, "Miss is smart." ”

After a pause, she looked at the inconspicuous copper kettle, frowned slightly, and said, "But Miss, what is this pot used for?"

The fourth lady smiled slightly, didn't speak, reached out and took the beauty high-necked teapot on the table, poured some tea into it, and then took a teacup, poured out a little, and motioned Ziyan to drink it.

Ziyan was inexplicable, muttering in her heart that this tea was poured from this pot to another pot, and then poured out, could it be that it would become hot?

Rao is single bite also made her eyes so sour that she almost couldn't open them. She hurriedly turned around and vomited, glanced at the fourth young lady with disgust, and said dissatisfiedly: "Miss, you are playing tricks on the slave maid, how can you give the vinegar to the slave maid to drink?"

"Where is the vinegar in this place?" the fourth lady smiled slightly, "You didn't blink just now, didn't you see me pour a pot of tea into it?"

Ziyan frowned, puzzled. Yes, she was obviously staring at the young lady with two eyes pouring the tea from the teapot into this strange pot, and the pot of tea was made by herself......

"Can't think of it, right?" the fourth lady glanced at her proudly, "This is the special feature of this Nine Turns Qiankun Pot, what is poured in, as long as I want it to become, it can become anything." ”

"It's amazing. Ziyan immediately became interested, "Miss, you don't play dumb riddles anymore, tell the slave maid." ”

The fourth lady said lightly: "There is nothing special about this, that is, as the name suggests, the Nine Turns of the Qiankun Pot, as long as it turns around, it ......."

Ziyan suddenly woke up, she took the pot, and with a slight force, it was indeed able to be turned. She took another cup of tea from the teacup, tasted it, and it became real tea again.

"This pot is amazing. Ziyan exclaimed, suddenly remembered something, and lost her voice, "Is Miss really going to help Miss Five?"

The fourth lady said nonchalantly: "She is my sister, and I have no reason not to help her." Moreover, she was recommended by me to participate in the competition, and she was embarrassed in the competition, and my face was not good-looking. ”

"But how can Miss help Miss Five?" Ziyan still didn't quite understand.

The fourth lady picked up the nine-turn Qiankun pot and said with confidence: "As long as there is this pot, the fifth sister will definitely win the game." According to the practice of previous years, this year's referee is the turn of the Xiao family's sister, I have always been good friends with her, and when the time comes, I will inform her in advance and let her bring this pot in. I will mix the twenty-four kinds of wine before the competition and put it into the nine-turn Qiankun pot, and the sister of the Xiao family will turn the pot in order according to my instructions, and pour out the wine for the fifth sister to taste. Of course, I will also give my fifth sister a note in advance, and write down the wine to be tasted in order, as long as she memorizes it. ”

"Miss is smart!" Ziyan gave her thumbs up approvingly, she looked at the nine-turn Qiankun pot, and said in disbelief, "Such a small wine pot can really hold twenty-four kinds of wine to be tasted?"

The fourth lady slapped her on the head: "Why can't you fit it? Don't forget, you damn girl, the original price of this wine jug is several thousand taels of silver! It can be worth such a large sum of silver, there must be its mystery, if you don't believe it, I will show you again." ”

Ziyan touched her head and said with a smile: "Miss, don't be angry, the slave is just talking." This pot is so expensive, and it is the handiwork of Master Hua, so it can naturally hold twenty-four kinds of wine. ”

At this time, the fourth lady covered her mouth with her hand and yawned. Seeing this, Ziyan hurriedly said: "Miss must be tired after working hard during this time, so let the slave help Miss go back to the room to rest." ”

The fourth lady nodded, let Ziyan help her, and went back to the room. When stepping on the path paved with rain flower stones, he seemed to inadvertently glance at the flowers not far away, and then turned and left.

When the fourth lady entered the house, she saw a slight busyness inside, and then there was no sound. There was a slight movement among the flowers, and a figure stood up, revealing a pale and uncertain face.

It's the second-class girl Caijuan in the second lady's room.
