Chapter 8 Zhang Liangji
Murong Bai's heart was already guilty of the Liu family's mother and son, and when he heard that the Jiang family's mother and daughter were still unrepentant, he was even more angry: "It's really your mother's good daughter, and everything will excuse her." "As the daughter of the General's Mansion, Murong Bai has never said a word of seriousness, and today's series of attacks have made her lose face even more.
Liu spoke: "Qingyi, you don't like me and Qingxue, I understand this, but you can't wronged our mother and daughter in vain." Leaving aside how I was poisoned, you know it in your hearts. I was unconscious, but I dimly felt the master beside me, and then I woke up. You say I'm deliberately setting up a game, I really don't know how to say it. Liu looked at Murong Bai affectionately, the tenderness in his eyes could not be concealed, and Murong Bai's heart moved.
Murong Bai walked to the side of the bed, held Liu's hand, and reassured her: "Yanran, don't say it, I know what you said." You are weak and need to be well cared for. ”
Liu nodded and held Murong Bai's hand tightly.
The doctor, who had not spoken all this time, finally spoke up: "General, the villain has something to say, and I don't know whether to say it or not." Murong Bai glanced at the doctor, and said coldly: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!" The doctor said "yes" and said, "It stands to reason that three days of death is not enough to live for three days, but there are exceptions to everything. The villain had treated a patient before, and she had been hit for three days and five days, but on the fifth day her sweetheart came to her side, and she miraculously woke up. Therefore, the third lady should have been thinking about the general in her heart, and the general has such a deep affection for the third lady, which is a miracle. ”
After Murong Bai listened, he looked at the Liu family again, nodded, and said to the doctor, "You go down, go to the housekeeper to receive the reward." ”
The doctor said: "The villain is just telling the truth, for fear that someone will be wronged, not greedy for the reward of the general's mansion, and ask the general to investigate." When Murong Bai heard the doctor's words, he felt very annoyed: "If you want to go, you will go, where did you come from so much nonsense." Whether you want to receive the reward, or whether you want to get the board, you choose. When the doctor heard this, he hurriedly thanked him: "General Xie, General Xie, the villain will go down." After saying that, he ran away.
"What else do you have to say?" Murong Bai looked at the Jiang family, the Jiang family only knew about poisoning, and they didn't know anything about toxicology, plus the doctor's words just now, it sounded reasonable, so he said: "If the master wrongfully poisons the concubine's body, the concubine will never be recognized." At most, the concubines neglected to care about them, and asked the lord to punish them. ”
Murong Qingyi didn't dare to say more, waiting for Murong Bai's hair.
Murong Qingxue spoke up at this time: "Daddy, since my mother is fine, don't pursue it anymore." After all, it's a family, and there's nothing you can't say. If you want to punish the eldest mother and sister, the daughter and the mother will be equally sad in their hearts. ”
The Liu family deeply agreed, and also begged Murong Bai.
Murong Bai waved his sleeves and said coldly towards the Jiang family's mother and daughter: "Look at how generous Yanran and Xiaoxue are, one of you is the master mother of the General's Mansion, and the other is a concubine, but your heart is not as broad as theirs. That's all for this, and you don't have to make any more mistakes in the future. ”
Jiang nodded again and again, not daring to argue again.
"Also, Xueyuan's food and clothing are not allowed to be so bad, a qiē refer to the supply of green barley. Jiang and Murong Qingyi's faces were very unhappy, how could a concubine and a concubine be treated like a wife and a concubine? But at this moment, they couldn't anger Murong Bai anymore, so they responded again and again.
"Yanran, you have a good rest first, and I'll come back to see you in the evening. Murong Bai said to the Liu family. Murong Qingxue said very obediently: "Daddy walks slowly, aunt walks slowly, and sister walks slowly." ”
Murong Qingyi stared at Murong Qingxue fiercely when she left, Murong Qingxue smiled at her, made a posture of walking slowly and not sending it, and the angry Murong Qingyi stomped her feet.
After the group left, Murong Qingxue asked Xinyun to bring a hot towel over and wiped the black off Liu's lips, and Liu's face returned to normal. Thinking of what happened today, Liu still had palpitations, she patted her chest with an expression of rebirth on her face: "Qingxue, today's things are too dangerous, if something goes wrong, our mother and daughter will die without a place to be buried." ”
Murong Qingxue pinched Liu's shoulders and said with a smile: "Mother, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you will get the tiger." We have endured humiliation for so many years, even if we have to keep to ourselves, but we can't prevent poisoning like this, maybe one day we don't know if we can sit in this courtyard and enjoy the sunshine. ”
Liu nodded, she knew that what Murong Qingxue had received was the truth. The General's Mansion is such a glamorous name, but the battle inside is also fierce and vicious beyond the imagination of the outside world.
Murong Qingxue looked at the warm sunlight and thought of the Yuhu Palace where she was in her previous life and what happened there, it was really like a world away.
"Xinyun!" Murong Qingxue shouted.
Xinyun ran over with a smile: "Miss, what's the matter?"
Murong Qingxue said: "You go to Xia Anhetang and give this hundred taels of silver to the boss, saying that he did a good job today, and this is what he deserves." Xinyun took it with a smile and sneaked out of the general's mansion.
As soon as the goatee boss of Anhetang saw Xinyun coming, he hurriedly came out of the counter and said with a flattering smile: "Miss Xinyun is here, does the third lady have something to order?"
Xinyun handed a hundred silver tickets to the boss, and said with a smile: "Miss praised you for doing a good job, and this hundred taels of silver was rewarded by Miss." ”
The boss took the silver ticket with a smile, and said while putting it in his pocket: "The third lady is really polite, the villain just said something by the way, and he didn't make any effort." The housekeeper of the General's Mansion has already rewarded the villain, and the third lady has given the reward again, the villain, I really don't know what to say. ”
Xinyun said mischievously: "In that case, the boss might as well give me the silver ticket." ”
The boss smiled flatteringly: "The third lady's heart, how can the villain live up to it, the villain will take it well." ”
Xinyun snorted disdainfully, and said with a straight face: "Did you show any flaws when you went to the General's Mansion to treat the third lady?" The boss smiled and said: "The girl looks down on the little old man? In this world, how can anyone not see money? The little guy said that he wanted to find a doctor to treat the third lady, so I waited at the door according to the girl's instructions. Isn't it a double win to give him five taels of silver, which can solve his errand and accomplish what the girl wants me to do?"
Looking at the boss's narrowed eyes and shrewd eyes, Xinyun secretly admired in her heart. At last, something suddenly occurred to him, and he asked, "Who is the man you are talking about who died of poison for three days, but woke up on the fifth day? How come I have never heard of it?"
The boss looked at Xinyun and said meaningfully: "Since I haven't heard of it, then who knows if it's true or not? Girl, you are so smart, you should know better than the little old man. ”
Xinyun really admired the owner of this pharmacy, and said half-sincerely and half-jokingly: "Boss, it's a pity that you are not a military teacher." The pharmacy owner looked at Xinyun and pondered in his heart, whether this Xinyun girl was praising him or sarcastic him.
Xinyun turned around to leave, thought of something again, and shouted to the boss: "What are you giving your wife to drink? You can't take the medicine indiscriminately, right?" The boss came back to his senses and said with a smile: "The girl said that she was laughing, didn't you? You must know that the young lady bought three pairs of medicine from me and spent five hundred taels of silver, how could I discount the book and spare more than one hundred taels of silver to act in this play? It is three parts poison, how dare the little old man make a mistake in the affairs of the General's Mansion." The girl can rest assured that the medicine that the little old man gave to his wife is a tonic to refresh her mind and invigorate her qi, and the more the better. ”
Xinyun really admired this boss of Anhetang, said goodbye to him at the moment, and sneaked back to the academy again.
The matter of Murong Bai staying in Xueyuan at night came to the General's Mansion, and everyone said that the third lady had been left out in the cold for more than ten years, and this favor should not be underestimated. The degree of food and clothing refers to the eldest lady, and for a while, everyone's attitude towards the Liu family and Murong Qingxue is very different from before.
"Miss, look at these people, they are really different from the previous attitude towards us, and they have ugly faces one by one, I really don't want to look at them. Xinyun was indignant.
After all, Murong Qingxue is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he has long been accustomed to these, and said to his heart: "In this world, which one is not worshipping high and stepping on low, people go to high places, and water flows to low places, and they can't change it." ”
Xinyun said to her seriously: "Miss, Xinyun will always be loyal to Miss, no matter how Miss is, Xinyun will always be with you." ”
Murong Qingxue looked at Xinyun's clear eyes, and couldn't help but think of her previous life in Yuhu Palace, Xinyun blocked a knife for her and died, she couldn't bear it, took her hand and said, "I believe." ”
Xinyun didn't know what Murong Qingxue was thinking, but for her, as long as the young lady and his wife were safe, she would be very content.
After lunch, Murong Qingxue sat in the courtyard and watched the geese fly north in the sky. Xinyun looked at her and didn't bother her, and after serving Liu's nap, she also came to the courtyard to hold her chin and look at the sky.
Murong Qingxue said: Ask the world, what is the love, and the direct religion promises life and death? Happy and fun, parting bitter, there are even more crazy children. You should have said: Stratus clouds, thousands of mountains and twilight snow, who does the shadow go to?
As soon as the words fell, a crisp knock came at the door. Xinyun went to open the door, and it turned out that Murong Ningyu and Murong Jingli were here. Murong Qingxue saw them, although they were sorry for themselves in their previous life, but it was only the suppression between sisters, and it did not hurt her life, so Murong Qingxue made up her mind that as long as she didn't touch her bottom line, she would leave them a way to live. But if you're aggressive, don't blame her for being rude.
"It turned out that the second sister and the fourth sister came, which really made my snow garden shine. Murong Qingxue said with a smile.
