Chapter 59: The Poison of Pastry

Liu Qianqian's words made Master Liu couldn't help but wipe the moist corners of his eyes, and also aroused the dissatisfaction of Master Liu with the second aunt in his heart, I'm afraid it is impossible for the second aunt to come out soon. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"Mama Feng, get up, Manling, when you turn around, you call the tailor to come to the house and make a few sets of clothes for Qianqian, a girl of this age is the time to love beauty, so she can only wear these old clothes all day long?" Master Liu whispered to Aunt Li beside him.

"Yes, the concubine will order it to go down. Aunt Li replied respectfully.

"Daddy has just returned home, and he must be tired of catching up with so many things. The daughter went back first, and in the afternoon, she responded to Aunt Hu's appointment to go to her yard to enjoy the flowers, and then came to say goodbye to her father in the evening. Seeing that the matter was almost over, Liu Qianqian motioned for Yun Mengyao to help Aunt Feng up, and got up to say goodbye to Master Liu.

After Master Liu nodded, Liu Qianqian and Yun Mengyao helped Aunt Feng out of the main courtyard.

Back in the courtyard, I explained that Aunt Feng had lunch upstairs, and then walked upstairs, Taoxi's antidote must be configured quickly, otherwise it is likely to leave the root of the disease.

At noon, when Yun Mengyao brought the rice over, Liu Qianqian had already basically analyzed the ingredients of the bottle of poison, only a medicine had not yet been determined, but it didn't take much time, if it went well, the antidote could be prepared tomorrow morning.

After lunch, Liu Qianqian did not rush to invest in the development of the antidote, but followed Yu Mengyao downstairs, and ordered someone to bring the pastries sent from the small kitchen in the morning.

"Meng Yao, go and bring two little mice that I let you raise. Liu Qianqian commanded softly.

Yun Mengyao didn't dare to touch that thing, so she had to order Mrs. Zhang, and not long after, Mrs. Zhang took a small cage and brought two gray little mice, these two mice looked very lively, jumping up and down in the cage, running back and forth.

"Well, count you unlucky. Liu Qianqian sighed, then picked up a piece of pastry and crushed it and threw it into the rat cage.

Not long after the rat ate it, it began to convulse, and then rolled back and forth in the cage, and soon spat blood from its mouth, and could no longer move.

Seeing this scene, Yun Mengyao, the rough mother-in-law, and the third-class girl who was waiting in the hall were all surprised, and the fool also knew that there was something wrong with the pastry.

"Meng Yao went to Dongli Courtyard to invite Aunt Li over. As if she had already guessed, Liu Qianqian's expression did not change in the slightest, and she commanded in a deep voice.

Yun Mengyao didn't dare to delay, stroked her body and quickly walked out of the courtyard and walked in the direction of Dongli Courtyard.

Yun Mengyao's speed is fast, and Aunt Li's speed is not slow, and the half-burnt incense will arrive at Liu Qianqian's courtyard.

When she saw the two dead rats in the cage again, Aunt Li was first frightened, took two steps back, and then asked, "Miss, what's wrong?"

"Aunt Li, sit down!" Liu Qianqian got up to greet her, which was enough to give Aunt Li face.

Although this Aunt Li has just started to run the house, the whole thing seems to be a different person, she took off the big red gauze skirt, changed into a cheongsam with blue dark flowers and silver edges, her hair was simply tied into a bun, and a hollow carved silver hairpin was inserted on it, and even the lip grease was changed to dark red.

After the two of them sat down, Liu Qianqian continued: "Thinking that my aunt should rest, I shouldn't have bothered, but this matter is too big, and Qianqian doesn't dare to slack off." ”

Aunt Li looked at the pastries on the table, and then at the dead mice in the cage, and had a count in her heart, but still asked, "Miss, I don't know why you are in such a hurry?"

"The pastries in this food box were originally prepared by Qianqian yesterday in the small kitchen, and I plan to go to Aunt Hu's yard this morning to enjoy the flowers and bring them over. But early in the morning, Qianqian was called by the second aunt, and caught up with her father to come back, which was delayed. Qianqian saw that the pastry was no longer fresh, and happened to raise a few little mice, thinking, feed them first, and give the rest to the people below. Qianqian was scared in her heart, if she mentioned it to Aunt Hu, wouldn't it hurt her. Even if you don't mention going there, if you reward the people below, wouldn't it also cost people's lives, and Qianqian will probably be unhappy for the rest of her life. After Liu Qianqian finished speaking, she sighed, and continued: "The third aunt has to investigate this matter carefully, most of the things made in the small kitchen are lived in the mouths of our masters, so how can people rest assured?"

"What the eldest lady said is very much, Hongmei, go and call the steward of the small kitchen to the concubine, she is really bold, and she dares to give her master something to eat. By the way, I said that I want someone to go to Dr. Xu and ask him to come and check what is in this pastry?" Aunt Li was full of displeasure and ordered in a deep voice.

"Wait!" Seeing that Hongmei was leaving, Liu Qianqian hurriedly stopped her.

"What else does the eldest lady command?" Aunt Li looked at Liu Qianqian hesitantly and asked softly.

Qianqian suddenly remembered that Dr. Xu had been conditioning her second aunt for a long time, but her body still did not improve. Presumably, the medical skills are also mediocre, and in the morning, my father asked someone to go to the Huichun Hall to ask for a doctor, or the third aunt also went to the Huichun Hall to ask for one?" Liu Qianqian suggested softly.

Although it was not as tactful as Qianqian's words, Aunt Li understood the meaning of her words, smiled at her slightly, and then turned her head and instructed Hongmei: "Listen to the eldest lady, go to the Rejuvenation Hall!"

In fact, Liu Qianqian already knew in her heart that there was no deadly poison in this pastry, but only a large amount of safflower and peach kernels, although it could cause miscarriage, it would kill you. As for why the two poor little old men said they died, only Liu Qianqian could explain it clearly, knowing that the pastry was crushed by her own hands.

Before the steward of the small kitchen was brought back, the voice of the little girl sounded outside.

"Who are you? What are you doing here? This is the courtyard of the eldest lady. ”

"Bold, don't hurry up when you see the master. This is the voice of Zhang Tao, the entourage of Master Liu.

"Old, master!" Because all the girls in Qianqian's yard were newcomers, they didn't recognize Master Liu, so they couldn't help but hesitate.

Without Qianqian Li and your aunt, she didn't dare to slack off, quickly got up, and walked towards the door.

When Liu Qianqian and Aunt Li went out, the little girl was kneeling and kowtowing to Master Liu to admit her mistake.

"Daddy, you're here. Liu Qianqian greeted her with a smile.

"Is this girl new?" asked Master Liu, looking at the girl who was still kneeling on the ground.

"Yes, go out, the girl in Qianqian's yard is dead, wounded, and now there is only one green green left, and the rest are new. Mentioning this, Liu Qianqian couldn't help but show sadness.

Seeing that Liu Qianqian was like this, Master Liu didn't want to ask again, so he waved his hand and exempted the little girl from punishment.

"That's it, get up!"
