Chunyu was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said, "The smoke cage has been useless for several days, where does the aroma come from?" You're talking nonsense. ”

"Really?" Xiaohua frowned and whispered: "It's obviously fragrant, but it's very light and light, and my nose is very smart." Speaking of this, she saw that the spring rain did not believe it, so she was unconvinced and said: "Don't think I'm bragging, I said earlier that I smelled the fragrance of spring flowers, you probably thought I was making up an excuse, in fact, you don't know, just under the poplar tree a hundred steps away from us, there are two big spring flowers, the fragrance drifts over with the wind, I smell it, you don't smell it, right?" If you say I'm lying, go and see. ”

"Those two spring flowers, I naturally know." The spring rain reminded Xiaohua of this, and she also remembered it. So he smiled: "It's just nothing, whether you smell the aroma or not, who can say?" I'm not your nose, so I don't believe it. ”

"You...... Why are you like this? Xiaohua stomped her feet angrily and went angry. Here Chunyu smiled and returned to the house, Xinghua asked her what she was arguing with Xiaohua in front of the door, and when Chunyu finished speaking, she couldn't help laughing, but soon her face changed color, and she stood in place for a while, then hurriedly came to the smoke cage and lifted the smoke cage cover.

"Sister, you really believe that little hoof." Chunyu also hurriedly rushed up to help, the two put the lid of the smoker cage on the ground, Xinghua looked at it carefully, but still didn't find anything abnormal, Chunyu also said next to him: "The girl here has seen it several times, but she didn't find it, what are you tossing now?" ”

Xinghua didn't answer, but stretched out her hand with a solemn face to pull in the ashes. After Gu Qiluo suspected that the matter was in the smoke cage before, he also looked for it and pulled it a few times. But I didn't find it. But this time, Xinghua was extremely persistent, and after a long time, she finally stuck half of her arm into the ashes and groped carefully.

"Xinghua, what are you doing?"

Suddenly, an angry voice sounded outside, and Xinghua looked up to see Amber hurrying over, and she looked at the other party's pale face. More and more sure of what he thought, he said leisurely: "It's nothing, I thought that the smoke cage was useless for several days." It's better to clean up the charcoal ash. ”

"What do you do with all this charcoal ash? It also made the house full of dust, and the left and right sides were not in the way, maybe the old lady would use it when she was in the mood. Amber was terrified. But he tried to speak calmly. I just hope that the apricot blossom can stop quickly.

Xinghua didn't speak anymore, but still groped, and here Amber was in a hurry, so she stepped forward and dragged her, screaming at the same time: "Look at the house you have made, the ashes are flying, phew! Phew! ”

"What to do? What does the noise look like? ”

The two were pulling when they heard Gu Qiluo's voice. Amber's movements froze, and she was about to turn around and complain. I heard Xinghua say excitedly: "There is." ”

"What's there?"

Chunyu looked at Xinghua in surprise, and secretly said that she was really touched by Sister Xinghua? As she asked, she turned her head to look at Amber, but saw that the other side was pale, and there was no trace of blood on his lips, and his body was shaky, as if he would fall to the ground in the next moment.

"Girl, look, there is such a thing hidden in this charcoal ash at some point." Xinghua handed a small piece of black wood in her hand to Gu Qiluo, and Chunyu fanned her nose and said in surprise: "Huh? There is indeed a faint fragrance, Xiaohua didn't lie to me, but it was buried in such deep ashes, how could she smell it, it was really a dog's nose. ”

Gu Qiluo's face was pale, looking at the black wood in her palm with a faint fragrance, she suddenly looked up at Amber, gritted her teeth and said, "What is this?" How can such a thing appear in a smoker cage? ”

"Slave maid...... The slave doesn't know. ”

Amber was flustered, and instinctively denied it. But seeing Gu Qiluo clenching her fists suddenly, seeing that she was about to smash it with a heavy punch in the next moment, she was so frightened that she stepped back a few steps and sat on the ground.

Gu Qiluo was indeed out of anger, just looking at Amber's appearance, he knew that this hand and foot must be the other party's activity. It's just that she still has a trace of reason, so she didn't do it herself, but just looked at Amber coldly and said: "Although you deny it, when the time comes, when I find out the origin of this wood, I will send you to the government, under that punishment, I don't think you can recruit it?" ”

As soon as the words fell, she instructed Xinghua and Chunyu to say, "Tie up this bastard slave who murdered his master." Remember, don't leak the news. After speaking, he walked a few steps to the outermost hall, lifted the curtain at the door, and sneered at the pearl in the courtyard: "Where are you going to go, pearl?" ”

"The slave maid wants to go to the thatched house, and the girl calls the slave maid something?"

Pearl turned around, smiling all over her face, but she heard Gu Qi Luo Senran say: "What are you going to the gate to go to the thatched house?" Do you want to go to the thatched house in the yard of your wife? ”

The girl laughed, but the slave was dizzy for a while. Pearl hurriedly turned around and walked in the direction of the thatched house in the courtyard. Gu Qiluo looked at her coldly, and after a while, she saw Xinghua coming over and said, "Girl, I have tied the hands and feet of that, and my mouth is also blocked, I am looking at the pearl here, and I don't expect her to fly out with wings." ”

Gu Qiluo nodded, and was about to turn around and enter the house, when she saw two children walking in, one of them was the granddaughter of the princess, Gu Qiluo also knew, but the other child she had never seen, it was a very delicate little girl, she was puzzled, so she heard Xinghua next to her shout: "Sanya, why are you here?" ”

"My mother asked me to deliver a letter to the girl." Sanya was quite clever, looked around, and found that there was no one else, so he smiled and showed two little tiger teeth and said: "The second master said, everything is ready, tomorrow morning he will arrange someone to go to the south gate to give porridge, and come to pick up the girl in the afternoon to take a look." ”

As the little girl spoke, her eyes fell on Gu Qiluo, and when she heard Xinghua say that this was the real owner of Baiwei Restaurant, she quickly knelt down, and before she could see her, she was helped up by Gu Qiluo, only to hear her smile and say to Xinghua: "This is the girl from the family you are talking about?" So cute and clever. Come, go into the house and eat something, it just so happens that I haven't eaten much in the morning, so I asked the kitchen to make fresh snacks, and I'll send them over in a while, you guys finish eating, Sanya, you and Xinghua will go to Baiwei Hall together. ”

The two little girls heard that they had a little bit to eat, and their eyes lit up, and here Xinghua watched the pearls rub out of the thatched house, so she sneered: "I advise my sister to die as soon as possible, unless you have wings or become a spirit, otherwise you will serve the old lady in this house today." ”

Pearl is not as flustered as Amber, after all, she doesn't know about this matter, but she follows Amber on weekdays, so she feels that she is Mrs. Lu's person, and now that Amber has an accident, she naturally wants to go to ventilate and report the news, but now in this situation, it is obviously impossible, so she had to restrain her mind and serve in the house, while quietly waiting for the opportunity.

Gu Mingyang came back in the evening, and after dinner, he sat with his wives and concubines as usual and talked, and overheard the person outside the door report that "the eldest girl is here." Then Gu Qiluo walked in the door, he looked at his eldest daughter and smiled: "Qiluo, what's the matter?" How's your grandmother doing? The doctor said that she wanted to recuperate, so now the morning and dusk are exempted, otherwise I would like to go and have a look. ”

Gu Qiluo got up and said lightly: "Back to my father's words, my grandmother has improved a lot today, although she is still thirsty and sleepy, she eats more, and her speech is also organized, not as confused as in the past, and she is in good spirits when she is awake." ”

"Really? Okay, okay. Gu Mingyang was overjoyed, stood up and said, "Then your grandmother is awake at this time?" I'll go take a look. ”

"The grandmother has already slept, and the daughter has let the apricot blossoms and spring rain guard her. I came here now because I had something important to report to my father. As Gu Qiluo spoke, he took out a small cloth bag from his arms, handed it to Gu Mingyang and said, "Father and Mrs. are well-informed, see if you have seen this thing?" What is the origin? ”

Gu Mingyang opened the cloth bag suspiciously, and saw a small piece of wood in the cloth bag, and there was a burst of faint fragrance, he frowned and thought for a while, and then hesitated: "This seems to be agarwood?" Where did I get my son? What do you want me to do to see where it came from? ”

Mrs. Lu's face suddenly turned pale from the first time she saw that piece of wood, but she was a person who was quite deep in the city, and she quickly recovered her normal complexion, and at this time, she actually picked up the small piece of wood from Gu Mingyang's hand, and said in a deep voice: "Could it be that this is a 10,000-year-old agarwood?" Oh, that's a priceless baby, where did the big girl come from? Could it be the items in the two boxes of jewelry that the second son gave you? ”

This wicked woman's acting skills are superb. Gu Qiluo sneered in his heart, but said quietly on his face: "It may not be 10,000-year-old agarwood, I just suspect that my grandmother suddenly fell asleep and couldn't wake up, and it was related to this piece of wood." ”

immediately told the matter as it was, and then said to Gu Mingyang: "Now the amber has been tied up by me, just waiting for Daddy to deal with it." The daughter has the heart to find out the origin of this wood, once it is found out, if the slave still refuses to confess, she will be sent to the official, under heavy punishment, do not believe her and will not admit. ”

Gu Mingyang's face also became solemn, and he nodded and said: "My son said very much, you asked people to bring that amber up, I want to ask her personally, she has been in the house for more than ten years, and my wife and I have treated her well, why did she do such a thing that is unconscionable?" ”

Gu Qiluo shook her head and said: "My daughter has already asked her, but she flatly denied it, but anyone who does such a thing has already had a bad conscience, and if her father asks her, she will not admit it." So now, I should first find out the origin of this piece of wood, and then take a look and tell the imperial doctor, if I can prescribe the right medicine, wouldn't my grandmother's illness be faster?
