026 Clues
Chuntang's head shook like a rattle, and after stopping, he said in a voice the size of a mosquito: "Aunt Du's embroidery is better than the small one." She knew that her lady didn't like Aunt Du, but she didn't dare to let her be the best embroiderer in the house.
Xu Promise nodded thoughtfully, the Du family started as a silk business, and later started a dyeing business, and also opened a shop to sell ready-to-wear clothes, and also opened several embroidery workshops. There are many embroidery girls in the family, and Aunt Du should be a good worker.
Then I thought that the lady who taught the piano and the lady who taught the embroiderer today mentioned Xu Qian, and the words were full of praise.
What a woman in the boudoir should learn, Xu Qian can handle it casually, no wonder Ding is worried that Xu Qian will steal the limelight from Xu Erniang.
The sound of "knock knock" came from the outhouse, and Xu Xu immediately opened his eyes, which were very bright.
"Go out and rest, I'll sleep." Promise rolled over as he spoke.
Chuntang thought that the promise was unhappy because of what happened today, so he hummed softly, and then stepped back lightly.
As soon as Chuntang left, Xu Yu got up immediately, walked two steps and returned to wrap snacks from the desk, and then went to the back window to open the window and turn out.
Hitting the wall with a stone was the code she and July agreed upon.
"Lady!" July didn't expect the promise to come out so quickly, and she was very surprised.
"Speak, be quiet. Promise crouched at the foot of the wall, looking up at July with flushed cheeks.
July nodded, squatted down, and lowered his voice: "The little one has found Huan'er, she was beaten and she was only able to stand up yesterday, and I am afraid she will be sold to Zhuangzi in a few days." You said that she was a greedy person, so the little one stuffed her with the money you gave, and asked a few more questions, and she said it all. ”
Promise nodded and motioned for July to continue.
"She said that the fourth lady put her in your house, and every move you make here must be told to the other side, and because she often goes to Yilian Temple. The elder brother of Zijuan next to the fourth lady came to the house to look for Zijuan once when you and your wife were caught with the cold. And the day before Mrs. was poisoned, Zijuan went outside the house. Afraid that she would deceive me, I went to Yilian Temple again and asked a rough maid who had spoken to me on weekdays, and she also said that Zijuan had gone out in those days, and begged me not to say it. ”
Xu Yu frowned, and already had some thoughts in his heart, if he was going to get medicine, he naturally didn't dare to let his brother send it to the door, and he couldn't just find someone to go, so it would be safer to go in person.
July lowered her voice again, and her head was almost close to Xu Promise's ear: "Huan'er didn't know what was superfluous, so I went to the side door and asked the mother-in-law who guarded the door, she said that Zijuan's brother was a gambler, and he often came to the house to ask Zijuan for money." There was a pause here: "The mother-in-law also said that Brother Zijuan started working in a medical hall last year, but he didn't know which medical hall it was. ”
The answer is imminent.
Xu Yu thought for a while, took out the jade pendant given by Zhu Shang from his arms, handed it to Qiyue, and instructed in a low voice: "I'll go to Mama Li and ask Brother Zijuan what his name is, you wait for me here tomorrow morning, and I'll sue you." Then immediately go to the Tiansheng Gambling House where I took you that time, take this jade pendant to their shopkeeper Zhu Shang, and sue you to him, and you must tell him the name of Brother Zijuan. ”
Qiyue stuffed the jade pendant into his arms as if he was facing a great enemy, and asked suspiciously: "If I take this, will the shopkeeper Zhu see me?"
"Didn't you see what I did that day, just give it to the little girl. I have been asking from those people for the past few days, and now I have no money. Xu Yu smiled, she was worried that July would not be willing to spend the money and jewelry at the time, but looking at the news she inquired, she knew that she knew these things very well.
July smirked, "You know, some people's mouths are going to be pried open with money. She didn't expect the lady to trust herself so much, so she tried her best to do things well.
"Well, I'll give you some more convenience tomorrow to go out when the time comes, I've worked hard for you these past few days. Xu Promise smiled and took out the snack wrapped in oiled paper from his arms, "Let's eat it here, and take it back later, others will think you stole it." ”
With tears in her eyes, July took the snack in her hand.
A few days later, when Xu promised to greet Mrs. Xu and the Zhang family with the Lu family, he found that the atmosphere in the house was not right.
As soon as she entered, Zhang shouted, "You still have the face to come in!"
Xu Yu frowned and looked around, except for his grandfather, Zhang, Ding, and the eldest uncle who had been busy collecting tea outside recently.
The eldest uncle is busy with his feet not touching the ground, why did he come to say hello?
I don't know what happened, but Lu Shi vaguely guessed it, and there was worry between his eyebrows: "Mother, Liuniang is not that kind of person, and I hope that Niang will find out and return Liuniang to her innocence." ”
This matter should have been investigated a long time ago, but she couldn't get out of bed sickly, the master was not in the house, the eldest brother was busy collecting tea, and the sister-in-law was busy checking the affairs of the house, so this matter stopped halfway through the investigation and there were no clues.
Xu Promise also understood, but pretended not to know, and asked puzzledly: "Grandmother, but I came late today, did I make you unhappy?"
Old lady Xu coughed and said slowly: "Originally, this matter was a matter in our house, and your father begged me to suppress it for the sake of your reputation, so I agreed, but later you lost your memory, so there is no need to talk about this matter." It's just that now this matter has spread outside the mansion, and if you don't do something, it will only ruin the reputation of the Xu Mansion. ”
The heart of the promise gradually cooled down, I thought that this grandfather was worthy of his respect, and he would choose to believe in himself like his father and mother about the dumb medicine, but he didn't expect it......
"Grandfather, what the hell is going on?" Promise pretended not to understand.
Ding's face was black, and the sixth lady of the Xu family used medicine to poison her mother, and such a thing spread outside, not only did Xu Liuniang not find a good relative, but it would also affect Erniang. Her second mother is not engaged yet, and she is not young, but the reputation of Xu Mansion has been ruined by Xu Liuniang, and her father may not agree to the relationship between Erniang and her nephew.
Thinking of this, Ding Shi became even more angry, looked at Xu Promise angrily, and said viciously: "Don't hide your mistakes when you have amnesia, do such a shameful thing, where will we put our Xu Mansion's face?"
Xu Promise was disdainful in his heart, these people didn't check the beginning of the matter, what reason was there to say that they had harmed their mother with medicine, what they were worried about was not their mother at all, but the reputation of Xu Fu.
Lu Shi was silent, and when he heard Ding say this, he protected the promise behind him: "Sister-in-law, Liu Niang is not wrong, and she has not done anything embarrassing, this matter has not been investigated, you can't just wronged her like this." As for the rumors outside, I will go out and make it clear, so that I will not let the Xu Mansion be ashamed of me. "Take the blame on yourself.
