Chapter 173: Dong Yuanhui's Struggle
Helian Xun hurried back to the house, just in time to meet Long Yin, who had come back from morning exercise.
Seeing her in a hurry, Long Yin grabbed the person, frowned and asked, "What's the matter, Nettle?" After asking, he saw the handkerchief she was holding in his hand, and saw that it was stained with something, so he asked: "It's good if the handkerchief is dirty and thrown away, why are you still holding it?"
"Wait, can't be thrown. Helian Xun hurriedly stopped, raised his head to meet his puzzled eyes, and didn't have time to explain, so he pulled people into the house: "I'll explain to you later." ”
Long Yin looked at her strange behavior, the doubts in her heart expanded, and she no longer stopped her, as she entered the house, she saw that she put her handkerchief on the table, and brought a silver needle from the side to test, and was even more puzzled: "Nettle, what are you doing?"
"Test the poison!" Helian replied to Long Yin as a matter of course, but a pair of eyes stared at the silver needle in front of him for a moment, and after waiting for a long time, the silver needle still did not change at all, not only a little confused.
Since it is not poisonous, why did Dong Yuanhui pour it out?
Long Yin looked at the little guy's frowning brows, and then looked at the silver needle in her hand, even more puzzled, and walked over to take the person into his arms: "Nettle, what's going on? What kind of poison test, what is this handkerchief on?"
"Bird's nest. Helian Wei threw the silver needle on the table with some dejection, pinched the corner of the handkerchief with his fingers, and muttered, "What's the matter?
Long Yin listened to her words to herself, and was even more confused, turned the person around, looked into her eyes and said, "Nettle, what are you doing?"
Helian Xun came back from his thoughts, looked at Long Yin in front of him with a puzzled face, and shook the handkerchief in his hand: "I wanted to talk to my aunt just now, but I didn't expect to see her pour a bowl of things into the flower garden next to me, I was puzzled, so I got some back to see if there was any problem?"
As he spoke, he glanced at the silver needle lying quietly on the table, pursed his lips and said, "It seems that there is no problem, but I don't understand, since there is no problem, why should the aunt pour it out?
Long Yin looked at her tangled appearance, and said with a smile: "There is this possibility, okay, don't think about it, isn't there no problem? ”
Helian Xun nodded, threw the handkerchief in his hand on the table, and walked out with Long Yin, so he didn't notice it in time, and the silver needle, which was originally unresponsive, had changed slightly.
When Long Yin and Helian Jing came to the Buddha Hall, Dong Yuanhui happened to be there, and Old Madam Qi was still drinking porridge with a bowl in her hand.
Helian Ying's eyes flashed when she saw the bowl in the hands of Dong Yuanhui and her grandmother, and she walked in quietly, and after calling her grandma, she deliberately looked at her with a greedy look and said, "Wow, what is grandma eating so fragrant?"
Old Madam Qi looked at Helian Ying's greedy look and smiled, handed the bowl in her hand to her and said, "Do you want to taste the bird's nest porridge specially stewed by the eldest aunt?"
Dong Yuanhui opened the Zhonglid placed next to him, took a small bowl and put some bird's nest porridge and handed it to Helian Jing: "Nettle, come and try your aunt's craftsmanship, if you like it, your aunt will make it for you to eat in the future." ”
Helian Jing looked at Dong Yuanhui's usual expression, looked down at the bowl handed to him, took it, scooped a spoonful and put it in his mouth, then squinted his eyes with a look of surprise: "Hmm, it's delicious, the craftsmanship of the eldest aunt is so good, Yin, do you want to taste it?"
Long Yin looked at the spoon handed to his mouth, and opened his mouth to eat it without hesitation, but he was a little puzzled in his heart, didn't this girl still suspect that the porridge boiled by her aunt was poisonous?
And the reason why Helian Wei dared to eat it was because she concluded that there must be no problem with these porridges, and even if there was a problem, I am afraid that it was the ones she threw out before, so she dared to eat them boldly.
Dong Yuanhui looked at the empty bowl of Old Madam Qi, and said respectfully, "Mother, do you want to drink a little more?"
"No need. Old Madam Qi handed her the empty bowl, and looked at Helian Xing, who was eating fragrantly, her eyes were full of love.
Helian drank the porridge in the bowl a few times, and handed the bowl over with a smile: "Thank you, auntie, this wrinkle is so delicious." ”
With a gentle smile on Dong Yuanhui's face, she looked at Helian Ying, who was smiling brightly, and said: "If you like it, your aunt will make it for you every day in the future, mother, you have a good rest, and your daughter-in-law will retire first." ”
"Let's go!" Old Madam Qi waved her hand, and then said to Helian Xun and Long Yin: "Yin'er, Jing'er, the sun is good today, go out for a walk with grandma." ”
"Okay!" Helian Xun and Long Yin heard this, and responded, so they quickly stood up and helped their grandmother out of the room.
Dong Yuanhui returned to the room with a heavy heart, found that her husband was there, her eyes flashed, and she walked over: "Hasn't the master gone out yet?"
Qi Yuanhong glanced at the tray in her hand without a trace, and the bowl that was already empty, got up and said, "Well, how is my mother's appetite?"
Dong Yuanhui lowered her eyes to hide the expression in her eyes, and nodded: "My mother has a good appetite today, and she has eaten a lot." ”
Qi Yuanhong's eyes flashed, and he said, "Since my mother likes to eat, I will send some every day in the future!"
"Yes, the concubine knows. Dong Yuanhui responded, looked at her husband who had already walked to the door, opened her mouth, and said nothing after all.
When she was the only one left in the room, she suddenly sat on the stool without strength, her eyes were full of pain, master, what are you going to do?
Thinking of Qi Yuanhong suddenly starting to talk in her dreams these few nights, and then the shocking secret she learned from her dreams, the whole person panicked, how could there be such a thing?
When the second brother's family went out to play, they never came back, she had guessed many possibilities, but she never thought that the fact that they never came back turned out to be like this.
Tears couldn't help but flow down my eyes, master, why can you be so ruthless, is it your own brother and nephew?
Thinking of Long Yin's face on the first day he just came back, everything was reasonable, and I am afraid that he did not expect that the person who should have died twenty years ago would suddenly come back.
"What should I do? What should I do?" Dong Yuanhui sat on the stool with tears streaming down her face, her face full of confusion, she didn't know whether she should tell the truth or hide it for him.
If you say it, I'm afraid that the master's life will not be guaranteed, but if you don't say it, with the master's current actions, I'm afraid that my mother's life is in danger at any time, she can stop it once, it is impossible to stop it every time?
Although she didn't know what the master had put in that bowl, she knew that it would definitely not be a good thing.
What the hell should she do? She couldn't watch his master make mistakes again and again, but she couldn't watch him die.
"Mother, my daughter has come to see you. Qi Rui's voice came from outside the door, Dong Yuanhui was shocked, quickly wiped away the tears on her face, showed a smile, and looked at the daughter who pushed the door in: "Don't accompany Junyu well, what are you doing here?"
After Qi Rui got closer, she saw her mother's obviously crying eyes clearly, and hurriedly walked over, looked at her and asked, "Mother, have you cried?" Did your father scold you again?"
Dong Yuanhui was slightly stunned, and did not defend herself, but acquiesced to her words.
Seeing this, Qi Rui was even more convinced of his guess, and immediately complained unhappily: "Dad is really, mother, are you okay?"
Dong Yuanhui looked at the worry in her daughter's eyes, her mood became a little more complicated, she pulled out a smile in front of her, held her hand and patted it: "It's okay, it's my mother's fault, I shouldn't make my lord angry, it's okay now, don't worry." ”
Qi Rui pouted, looking at her smiling mother, she could only sigh, this kind of thing is not once or twice, she knows that her father doesn't like her mother very much, and she was forced by her grandfather to marry her mother back then.
If it weren't for the ancestral teachings of the Qi family, the men of the Qi family could only marry one woman in their lives, and they could not divorce their wives or take concubines, I am afraid that my mother's life would be even more difficult now.
Thinking of this, Qi Rui had to be glad that the Qi family had such an ancestral teaching, and took her mother's hand to comfort her for a while before turning around and leaving.
Dong Yuanhui's mood couldn't calm down, and he suddenly thought of a place, so he got up and walked out of the room.
It wasn't until he came to the outside of the ancestral hall that Dong Yuanhui calmed down a little, looked up at the rows of spiritual positions in the ancestral hall, and finally turned around and left.
Helian Xun and Long Yin accompanied their grandmother to walk around the back garden, talked for a while, and sent the old man back to the room before they came back, and when they saw Dong Yuanhui coming from the ancestral hall, they glanced at each other.
"That direction is the ancestral hall, right? It's so late, why is she going to the ancestral hall?" Helian touched his chin, looked at Dong Yuanhui, who looked a little wrong, and whispered to Long Yin beside him.
Long Yin's eyes became a little deeper, looked at the eldest aunt who was slowly approaching, and replied to the little guy's words: "Probably something!"
Dong Yuanhui was in a very chaotic mood now, so he didn't pay attention to his surroundings.
It wasn't until she heard Long Yin and Helian Ying greet her that she suddenly came back to her senses, her heart was weak for a while, her eyes flickered a little, she looked at them and said, "Yin'er Ying'er, why are you here?"
Helian Xun looked at her dodging eyes, and a deep meaning flashed in her eyes, but she didn't pierce it, but said with a smile: "Yingang and I just sent grandma back to the house, and we are about to go back!
"Ah, no, it's getting late, I'll go and tell the kitchen to prepare dinner. Dong Yuanhui really didn't want to stay longer, she was afraid that she would not be able to hide it anymore, so after saying a word hurriedly, she turned around and left quickly.
Looking at Dong Yuanhui's somewhat flustered pace, Long Yin's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked down at the little guy with a thoughtful expression: "What are you thinking?"
Helian Xun looked at Dong Yuanhui's back in a hurry as if she was avoiding something, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she rubbed her chin with one hand: "Sect Master, I dare to guarantee that she must know something." ”
