Chapter 44: The Lady (6)
Yuan Chang called two personal attendants and ordered them to "talk" with the second lady.
The second lady opened her eyes wide, and she should have been very beautiful, but at this time, her red and swollen walnut eyes were unknown.
Since the two attendants can serve the owner of the village closely, they are naturally first-class and reliable, and their status in the village is not ordinary. And although the second lady gave birth to a son, she was still just a concubine, and she was not promoted to the main lady by Yuan Chang because of this, so the two were not very polite to her.
One of the older attendants stepped forward and said directly, "Second Madam, according to what you just said to the owner, the little young master was stuffed with a poisonous sachet early this morning, right?" β
The second lady replied calmly, "Yes, Bao'er usually has a good appetite in the morning, and I am afraid that he will accumulate food, and people will inevitably take him outside the courtyard to play for a while after breakfast every day." β
The attendant said, "You said that the two people who happened to take care of the little young master at that time walked away for some reason?" β
The second lady said, "This morning it was Bao'er's nurse and Juan'er who took him, but the nurse played with him for a while and found that although the sun was big in the morning, the breeze blowing was still a little cold and came back to Bao'er to get clothes, but Qiaojuan'er didn't know what she had eaten last night, and suddenly her stomach hurt badly, she thought that the nurse would go back soon, and it shouldn't matter if she let Bao'er play by herself for a while, so she hurriedly went to the toilet. Pointing at Zhou Yin hatefully, "He just took advantage of this time to do it, and after the nurse brought Bao'er back after the hour, Bao'er had that terrible thing on her body, and she lost Juan'er's nose and smelled wrong!" Otherwiseβor elseβ" cried, "if anything really happens to Bao'er, I won't be alive!" β
The attendant said, "Madame said that someone saw that it was Yaohan Gongzi, but I don't know who saw it, did it see Yaohan's face or the background?" Just looking like him, is he 100% sure that person is Yaohan's son? β
The second lady was stunned by the question, put away her tears, and paused before saying, "This-what else does this look like, two people said that they saw him, it must be him!" β
The attendant said, "Second lady, please be cautious, this kind of thing can't be said nonsense, Yaohan Gongzi has been going to the peach grove to play the flute in the past few mornings, Siping and I passed by this morning to listen to Yaohan Gongzi playing several tunes in a row, and he didn't leave until his own time, how could he go to you to assassinate the little master!" β
The second lady opened her mouth and stammered, and only after a while did she say, "This-this-this is impossible!" β
Yuan Chang was slightly stunned, "How is it impossible!" Shen Sheng commanded, "Go and take the two minions who dare to lie and testify falsely from the second lady and take them to Lao Lin, so that Lao Lin can be interrogated well, it is really daring to dare to do such a framing thing in Qilin Village;!" β
Immediately, someone agreed.
Yuan Chang looked at the second lady again, "Before this matter is investigated, you are also suspicious, and you can no longer take care of Bao'er, so leave him to the third lady to take care of for the time being." β
The second lady was shocked, "The owner! β
Yuan Chang frowned and said, "Don't quarrel, as long as it is found out that it has nothing to do with you in the end, Bao'er will naturally return it to you to raise." Saying that, his expression was cold, "But if the owner of the village finds out that you actually use your own child to frame others, then don't blame me for being ruthless!" β
The second lady's face was as white as ash, and her lips trembled, but Yuan Chang's face was cold, and she didn't dare to speak out again under the authority of the owner.
After the second lady, Yuan Chang turned to Qiu Lan again, "Qiu Lan, the owner of this village has always trusted you very much, but this time you are too disappointing!" β
Qiu Lan's hand hanging down at her side was clenched into a fist, but she still straightened her waist to meet Yuan Chang's terrifying gaze, "Please also ask the owner of the village to know that Qiu Lan is just doing things according to the rules, and has no other thoughts!" β
Yuan Chang asked lightly, "Oh? β
Qiulan shrunk, knowing that the owner's reaction was not to believe her, and secretly regretted that she had acted too recklessly before, because she didn't like Yaohan, so she had a preconceived idea in her heart, and after listening to the words of the second lady, she categorically believed that Yaohan secretly wanted to harm the little master, and as soon as she saw Yuan Chang, she was in the same caliber as the second lady, as if she had colluded in advance, which greatly violated the taboo of the owner!
Zhou Yin, who was worried in his heart, and had been quietly watching on the side, suddenly spoke, and said in a harmonious voice, "Owner, Miss Qiulan should not know about this, as she said, she is doing things according to the rules, although there is negligence, but it is not a big mistake, don't be too harsh." β
Yuan Chang finally softened his face and asked Zhou Yin, "Yao Han thinks so?" Why? β
Zhou Yin said leisurely, "Because I can't think of any reason for Miss Qiulan to harm me, people always have to do things for some reason, since there is no reason, it shouldn't be intentional." β
Yuan Chang's face changed from gentle to relaxed, and he looked at Zhou Yin with a smile, "Yaohan, what do you think?" Really generous. Waving his hand at everyone, "You all go out, Qiulan will go to Chief Wang's office to get the punishment by herself, see if he plans to punish you for two months of silver or copy books, it's okay, whatever you want." β
Qiu Lan breathed a sigh of relief, she didn't expect Yao Han to speak for herself, and she didn't expect him to be able to count in Yuan Chang's words.
After Zhou Yin and the others went out, he said to Yuan Changjian, "If the owner of the village is not busy recently, it is better to put the little young master here to take care of him, he is so young, and he is suddenly taken away from his mother, I am afraid that he will not be able to adapt." β
Yuan Chang couldn't quite understand his point of view, and disagreed, "What did Bao'er look like when he put it here for me." β
Seeing that Yao Han was brought to him by shouting and shouting for no reason, he still had a light face, and he was a little distressed in his heart, and he wanted to appease him, but he was used to it, and he couldn't say anything soft for a while, so he thought about it and said, "Yao Han, I think you seem to like Bao'er very much, speaking of which, your temperament and gentleness are quite suitable for taking care of him, so it's better to ......."
Zhou Yin hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile, "The owner of the village hurriedly stopped, what do I say about a big man and a few backyard women snatching children, besides, I have a lot of medicine there all day long, and the medicine is too heavy, not suitable for children." β
Yuan Chang was somehow a little disappointed in his heart, and coughed lightly and said, "Yaohan, you are talking to the master of this village more and more now
Zhou Yin smiled lightly, "In the past, I was the owner's guard, and I always had to obey the rules, but now I am nothing, so I will naturally be relaxed." β
Seeing that Yuan Chang didn't mean to let him go for a while, he took out the senior brother's version of affinity and joked, "It's really strange, the two personal attendants of the owner seem to be very idle, they don't have to do anything in the morning, just go to the peach grove to listen to people play the flute, it's really a coincidence, it's a shame that they are so idle, otherwise I really can't tell today!" β
Yuan Chang was a little surprised, but he naturally couldn't be made fun of, his expression didn't move, "I happened to pass over there in the morning, and I listened to Yao Han's good blowing for a while, and they were following me, so I heard it too." β
Zhou Yin nodded deeply, "Oh, it turned out that the owner of the village happened to be passing by, and then stood there for most of the hour, it seems that it is not the owner's attendant who is idle, but the owner himself who is idle." β
Yuan Chang knocked on the table, "Yaohan! β
Zhou Yin raised his hand and said good-naturedly, "Okay, I won't say it." Sure enough, he closed his mouth, only smiled slightly, and looked at it with a hint of ridicule in his eyes.
Yuan Chang was moved by the sight.
Recently, he often has to find some reason to meet Yao Han, or call someone here or go to the village to find it himself, anyway, Yao Han is either instructing the disciples of the martial arts hall to practice or playing the flute in the peach forest, so it is easy to find.
After seeing it, I often feel like I am now, but after I feel that without the drag of the identity of the guard, this person has become extremely comfortable and leisurely, gentle and elegant, generous and calm, making people like a spring breeze. I couldn't help but think for the hundredth time: I knew this, when I brought him back to Qilinzhuang, I couldn't say anything to make him a guard, and there was no shortage of guards in Qilinzhuang!
Let people pour two cups of tea in, Yuan Chang casually asked Zhou Yin if he had any new realizations when he recently instructed the disciples of Wutang, this is the most common topic of the two, Yao Han is extremely talented in swordsmanship, often has unique opinions, giving people a refreshing feeling, Yuan Chang sometimes talks to him and can feel that it is quite beneficial.
Seeing that the cup of tea was drunk, Yuan Chang seemed to be unintentionally missing, "It's not too early, Yaohan will stay and have dinner together." β
Zhou Yin also looked at the time, and then got up apologetically, "No, I should go back to drink medicine." β
Yuan Chang, "Just let someone send it over." β
Zhou Yin still shook his head, "I'm a little tired today." Dafang showed him a robe that he had in his hand, "I was in a bit of a hurry when I came out just now, and I grabbed a piece of clothing when I felt cold, thinking it was a cloak Who knows that it is this, I can't wear it, and I always feel a little cold on my body." I'll have to go back early and drink my medicine and go to bed, or I'll get sick tomorrow. I endured the discomfort, and if I invited Dr. Kong to come and see, I would definitely be taught a lesson by him. Speaking of Dr. Kong's stinky temper, he couldn't help but shake his head, "I really don't dare to provoke him now." β
This Yuan Chang didn't have much to say, but said, "Why didn't you say it just now when you feel cold." "Ordered someone to fetch the cloak, and then I had to let him go back.
People are so strange sometimes, Yao Han used to be a guard and served in bed, Yuan Chang didn't have any worries when he faced him, sometimes he didn't bother to speak, and it was enough to just look when he needed someone to serve him very occasionally.
Now don't let people be guards, Yuan Chang is reserved towards people, as if he is touched by Yao Han's spring breeze-like attitude, and vaguely feels that this person is half a friend, and he naturally can't pull his face down to his friends, and every time he wants him to stay, he has to make excuses, and Yao Han is inconvenient every time, and the reasons for his resignation are extremely reasonable, and he is so gentle that he has nothing to say, and in the end he can only let Yao Han go.
And after doing such a grievance that does not conform to the identity of the owner, the feeling in his heart is melancholy and sweet, he has never put up with anyone in his life, and there is no discomfort in tolerating it once in a while, but there is some willingness, and there is a sense of enjoyment.
