"Where is my mother?"

Mama Liu was petrified instantly, her eyes showed sadness, and her mouth was bitter.

Seeing her reaction like this, Qijing couldn't help but be disappointed. Also, if you are a person who has done the book of the military department, careful thinking is the basic condition. If it's someone around you, just ask casually. Then he would have no bones left.

"Back girl, old slave...... I don't know. Mama Liu's heart was like ashes.

"Oh, what can I do? You don't know this, you don't know that. You are here to sue Miss Sù me, you let Miss Ben, what should I do? ”

"Miss, the old slave really doesn't know. The old slave swore that if the old slave was deceived, he would not die well if he thundered five times in the sky. ”

Qijing tugged at the corners of his mouth: "Okay." For your sake, I'll give you another chance, Miss. Inquire for me, and your nephew's life will be kept first, and he will keep the hole he has dug. ”

Speaking of this, she swept around the people around her: "You have all heard me clearly." Miss Ben came to Su's house for my mother. If anyone has news of my mother, report it, Miss Ben is indispensable to her benefits. If you let me know, who has information but doesn't report it, and finally lets me know...... Don't blame Miss for not being emotional. ”

"Slaves don't dare."

And among these people, Mama Chen really knows the most about practice, and I saw her step forward: "Miss, the old slave has something to say." ”

"Say."

"This matter, the old slave can't say well. I only know that a few days before the young lady came back, the old slave drank with the mother-in-law who was keeping vigil at the second gate. There was a black shadow carrying something into the backyard of the Righteous Qi Courtyard. Later, the black shadow came out, and the one on the back was not seen. The old slave usually likes to find something, so he inquired. I heard that after that day, there were more people in the bamboo garden behind the Zhengqi Temple. It's strange that the old slave has seen someone bring food in, and he has never heard a voice. You see, this message can be useful? ”

"Good!" Qijing stroked his palms and said loudly: "Mama Chen, whether this news is true or not, I will credit you." ”

"Miss Xie, Miss Xie."

Qijing wrote down this bamboo garden and decided to explore it at night.

However, the matter in front of him still has to be solved first: "Mama Liu, you take Aiyu to the account room and fetch me the silver that the old lady said." ”

"Yes." Mama Xu and Aiyu breathed a sigh of relief. They are afraid that this master will abolish them again because of the previous incident.

They can't be blamed for being afraid, this man is always a deception of the good and fears the evil. This young lady pinched off the old man's arm and smashed the door of the Su family. At this point, no one said anything, no? Such a person really wants to kill a minion, but I'm afraid that no one will blame her.

"Huazhi, go to the front and take a look, have those princes left? By the way, inquire about my father's condition and how they treated it. ”

"Yes." Hana Zhi sent a green pear.

Qijing waved everyone else back, leaving Mama Chen alone.

"Tell me about these masters in our house."

"Yes." Mama Chen usually collects these gossips, and she doesn't say whether they are true or false, but the content is called a wonderful. "The old slave came from Tongcheng with the old lady back then. At that time, the old slave also saw the young lady wrapped in swaddling clothes. It's a pity that the old slave was not blessed, so he took a look. ”

"The old lady was taken to the capital, and the current lady was tossed for a while. Madame's father is the right minister, and there is an aunt who has entered the palace, who is a concubine. The second prince is from the noble concubine, and now it is the most favored time. When the old lady came, the lady was pregnant with the child, and the old lady took the opportunity to seize the power of the house. It's a pity that the old lady came from the countryside in the end, where can she fight the lady. ”

As a result, after the lady gave birth, she snatched back the power of the house, and relegated all the people around the old lady to the lowest place...... The old lady was so angry that she got into trouble with her wife. The old lady is a mother-in-law, and her identity is there. casually found an excuse, and put his niece, Aunt Qi, in the old man's room. ”

"Madame willingly?"

"What if you are unwilling? Who made her not give birth to a son? I heard from the old sisters that when my wife gave birth to the second lady, she broke her body and could no longer get pregnant. Therefore, the old lady stuffed people into the old man's room, and she could only bear it. ”

Seven scenes are clear, in this era, not having a son is a woman's original sin.

"And then?"

"Later, if you don't fight, the east wind will overwhelm the west wind, and the west wind will overwhelm the east wind. Later, the old lady became wiser, and she fought with her wife, as long as she lost, she would not be happy. She stuffed a man into the old man's room...... This time, again and again. Madame wouldn't be smart. No matter what you do, face for the old lady to do enough...... Slowly, everything will be fine. ”

In this way, there are as many as six concubines in this house. However, only the three who gave birth to daughters became aunts. The other three are just concubines who don't even have a name. I usually don't dare to run around, which is eye-catching. Therefore, up to this point, Qijing has never seen them.

The things in this house are probably only these three things: the dispute between wives and concubines is a topic that will never be outdated. The dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law has not been resolved for thousands of years. Coupled with the dispute between the concubines......

Well, if you study it well, it's still quite interesting.

"Mama Chen."

"The old slave is here."

"In the future, you won't wait in this courtyard."

Mama Chen was frightened: "Miss? ”

"Don't worry. It's not that I don't need you, but I just think that if you stay in this courtyard, it will be too condescending. What you have done in the past, and what you still do now. I want to know all the news in this house...... Remember, it's all you can ask, whether it's useful or not...... But you understand? ”

Mama Chen immediately smiled crookedly: "The old slave understands." ”

"There is another one, how did the news of our yard spread outside, you can also tell me clearly. Those villains who say we behind their backs, one of them counts as one, and I wrote it down. The young lady was empty, and she asked them one by one to settle accounts. ”

"Yes, old slave province. The old slave will be the eyes and ears of the young lady in the future. You won't be disappointed, Miss. ”

"Good."

……

After a while, Mama Liu came back with Aiyu. They were accompanied by six other men, two carrying a suitcase. The half-height box was carried by the two of them.

"Miss, the account room said that the accounts on Miss's side are a little fragmented, and I am afraid that it will not be good in a short time. Now a separate account room has been assigned to calculate the accounts of the young lady. However, I was afraid that Miss would be in a hurry here, so I prepared some things for Miss first, so that Miss could use them first. If you look back less, you will make up for it. ”

Mama Liu stepped forward tremblingly and replied, stealing her expression as she spoke.

But Qijing was smiling the whole time, and she couldn't see anything.

Carefully open the box.

Inside one, all the big and small gold and silver: "Here is a total of five hundred taels of silver." A pearl and a number of gemstones of various colors. Sixteen incense fans ...... another box opened, "This is the fabric of the season, one silk silk, one brocade, one blue satin, two fine cotton, four sets of ready-to-wear ...... of Yunshang Pavilion."

The third box opened, and Qijing was directly happy.

"A deep-sea coral ornament and a pair of white jade bottles."

"Aiyu, go and call me the account office for this." Qijing leaned on the soft couch, the corners of his mouth smiled softly, but his eyes were cold: "Mama Chen, you go to the street, find me a knowledgeable shopkeeper, and say that I have something I want to sell." ”

"Yes."

The two walked away quickly, and Mama Liu's face turned pale again.

Qijing asked again, "Is the pit dug yet?" ”

"Miss Hui, not yet, it's only half a person deep!"

"Then keep digging."

While he was talking, Aori returned. The news she brought back was almost as good as Qijing's guess.

"Several highnesses and princes are gone. The slave asked Wen Yi beside the master, and said that King Jing said: There is nothing abnormal in the adult's body, and it is impossible to be poisoned. He didn't prescribe medicine to the old man at all...... The Taoist priest beside the Fourth Highness left some pills, but he didn't say what the reason was. Imperial Doctor Liang's medical case is also written like this. The ...... who did not ask the prince of Jing to sign it"

"That's how it should be."

Wen Yi also said that after a few nobles left. The old lady punished the lady for copying the scriptures, but the old man didn't intercede this time! ”

"Wen Yi also secretly told the slave maid that when King Jing left, the second lady secretly stuffed something for him." Speaking of this, Qingli showed some disdain on her face.

Qijing didn't care about this private teaching, she was only curious: "Who is this Wenyi?" ”

Qingli bowed her head, "Miss Hui, he is a fellow villager of the slave." ”

"Not bad." He took the silver ingot and threw it away: "Reward you." ”

"Miss Xie." Qingli happily took it.

Soon, the bookkeeper came. The bookkeeper was a bearded man in his forties, fat, very rich, and very contemptuous.

"Slave Xu Hanzhang has seen the eldest lady." Xu Hanzhang took a lot of effort to bend his waist that he couldn't find. As soon as he curled a little, he straightened back.

Qijing's eyes glared: "Mama Liu, give me this confused minion's mouth." ”

Xu Hanzhang straightened his waist and looked directly at Qijing with a righteous face: "May I ask Miss, what did the slave do wrong?" ”

"Mama Liu, this is your last chance. Are you going to fight or not? Qijing looked gloomily at Mama Liu.

"Yes. The old slave takes the order! Mama Liu went until Xu Hanzhang was in front of him: "Offended." Raise your hand, "Smack!" ”

"Ahh Mama Liu screamed miserably, and was slapped out by Xu Hanzhang's protruding slap.

"Miss, if the old slave does something wrong, just say it. The head of the family punished ...... "In other words, you are a young lady, and you are not qualified."

"Huh!" Qijing smiled suddenly. "Who are you Xu Wenfeng?"

Xu Hanzhang was stunned for a moment. Didn't he come for those things? How: "Miss Hui, Wen Feng is a child." ”

Qijing smiled, "It turned out to be your son!" Recently, Xu Wenfeng asked for a doctor? Took a lot of medicine, right? ”

Xu Hanzhang was startled, looked up at Qijing violently, and suspicion and panic climbed into his heart together.

Qijing didn't even look at him: "It should be, it's still a heart disease!" ”

"Miss, if there is anything offended by the child, please forgive me." Xu Hanzhang said urgently.

"Forgiveness? When you hit my guy just now, you were very tough! Qijing glanced at it, and Mama Liu, who finally got up: "Only the head of the family is qualified to take care of your affairs." I'm an inner house lady, but I can't afford it. ”

"Come on, send Xu to the account room back."

Xu Hanzhang's face stiffened, gritted his teeth, and knelt down with a puff: "The old slave has eyes and doesn't know Mount Tai, and the lard is blinded by his heart." Please forgive the young lady, the old slave will not dare anymore. ”

"Don't you dare?" Qijing pinched the tips of his fingers: "Mama Liu, continue to palm." When you feel enough is enough, when to stop. ”

"Yes." This time, Mama Liu deserved much more simply. When he walked towards Xu Hanzhang, he brought some majestic and high-spirited momentum. "Smack!" Well, the strength of the hands is much better than before.
