Chapter 052: Turning the Tiger Away from the Mountain
When Jian Ying arrived at Yan Juzhai, the doctor had already diagnosed Su Xiulian's pulse. Knowing that Su Xiulian was fine, she just had some tire gas and needed to recuperate for a while, so she was relieved.
asked someone to go back to the blue courtyard to get the clothes, and after redressing properly, Jiang's mother and Xueqin both rushed over.
"Second Young Lady, does Young Master Cousin know that you are not Miss Six?" Xueqin lowered her voice and asked nervously.
"That's not necessarily, before Aunt Su's accident, we met, and he didn't see anything wrong. After I went into the water to save Aunt Su and went ashore, he began to suspect me. Jian Ying glanced at Jiang's mother, "Jiang's mother, do you know what's going on?" ”
Jiang's mother nodded and sighed: "Blame me for this, I forgot to tell you, Miss Six is afraid of water."
When Miss Six was young, she fell into the lotus pond and almost died. Since then, he is very afraid of water, and he does not dare to approach the water's edge, and he can't even enter the bath tub.
When I grew up, I was better, I could get into the tub and walk near the water, but I couldn't jump into the pool, let alone save people. ”
"Even if Miss Six is not afraid of water, it is enough to arouse suspicion that you jump into the water to save people." Xueqin picked up the conversation with some complaints, "Which big family do you see a young lady who can swim?" ”
Jian Ying squinted at her, "I'm sorry, I'm not a young lady from a big family, I can not only swim, but also climb trees, and go to the house to remove tiles." ”
"Second young lady, the slave doesn't mean that." Xueqin realized that she had lost her words, and her expression was shy.
"What do I mean to you? I have called you here to discuss countermeasures, not to settle accounts after the autumn. Jian Ying said unceremoniously.
Xueqin hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty, "The slave is wrong, the slave and the maid don't dare anymore." ”
Jian Ying ignored her and asked Jiang's mother, "How does my cousin know that Xiao Liu'er is afraid of water?" ”
"When the sixth lady fell into the water, the young master was right in front of her, so she knew this very well." Jiang's mother replied.
Jian Ying nodded, "I see." ”
Although Jiang's mother also felt that Jian Ying's move of going into the water to save people was a little reckless, and it was easy to provoke right and wrong. But the matter has come to this point, it's useless to say anything, the aftermath is the most important thing," Second Young Madam, who else heard what the young master said? ”
Jian Ying thought for a moment, "At that time, everyone took care of Aunt Su and left in a swarm, leaving me, Xiaoji, the second young master and Longjing."
Monkey Kui was on the boat, a little far away, and I don't know if he heard it.
And then there are the two mothers-in-law who carry the sedan chair. ”
Xueqin's face changed suddenly, "Even the second young master heard it, what can I do?" ”
"Don't panic, it's okay." Mother Jiang said calmly, "The place where Aunt Su fell into the water is the farthest away from Maoyingxuan, and there are trees to block it, so I can't see the situation of the second young lady going into the water to save people."
The lady didn't know what was going on, so we can vaguely say that the second young lady saw Aunt Su fall into the water, and she was in a hurry, so she jumped off without thinking about it, and it was the second young master who rescued the two of them together.
For the sake of the dignity of himself and the second young lady, the second young master will not tell outsiders about you taking off your clothes to save people.
If the second young master asked, the second young lady said that in order to cure your fear of water, the old lady found a girl who knew water from Zhuangzi and taught you how to make water. Young Master Cousin didn't know about this, and when he saw you go into the water to save people, he thought about it.
I will tell the second and fourth wives about this, and let the two wives deal with the young master, and then communicate with the capital, and this matter will be covered up.
The two mothers-in-law who carried the sedan chair spoke softly, and they would not talk nonsense, even if they said it, others would not believe it, and it was best to leave it alone. Recklessly, on the contrary, arouses suspicion. ”
Jian Ying felt that it was feasible, "Then do as you say." ”
Glancing at Xueqin again, "You get up." ”
"Yes." Xueqin stood up and looked at her face carefully, "Second Young Lady, something so big, do you want to inform the princess?" ”
"Quietly tell her, just say that it is a matter in my yard, I can deal with it myself, please don't bother her, it will not be beautiful if it disturbs the interest of the guests." Jian Ying commanded.
Jiang Ma and Xueqin promised to exit the door and did not mention it.
Su Xiulian hadn't woken up yet, the two doctors had already left the prescription and left, and the idlers and others had also been cleared out. Only Jian Ying, Zhou Shu, Xiao Ji, and Fang Ma, Ganlu, and Songluo who came in a hurry.
Long Jing went to grab the medicine, Hou Kui was preparing the decoction in the tea room, and Cuifeng and Hui Bai, who had been sent to ask for a doctor, were guarding the door.
"Tell me, what the hell is going on?" Jian Ying's eyes swept over the manna and pineapple who were kneeling on the ground, and the mother who was standing on the side with an embarrassed expression, and opened her mouth lightly, "Aunt Su is so dignified, why did she fall into the lake?"
You can't wait to have eight pairs of eyes staring at her on weekdays, why aren't any of them by her side today? ”
Manna lowered her eyes and was speechless, and Songluo was speechless.
Fang's mother said hesitantly: "It was the second young lady who sent someone to call me, so I left Tianshui Pavilion." ”
"I sent someone to call you?" Jian Ying was a little surprised, "When?" ”
Fang's mother thought for a moment, "About half an hour ago." ”
"Why did I call you? Who sent you to call? Jian Ying asked again.
"It's the second young lady's dowry girl, named Qiu Sheng. She said that there was an errand in the kitchen, and the second young lady couldn't cope with it alone, so she asked me to come over and help. Fang's mother also understood at this time, she was falling for someone else's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, and she looked very ashamed.
Jian Ying set her eyes on Ganlu, "What about you?" Why didn't you guard Aunt Su? ”
"The slave was called away by Aunt Miao." Manna replied calmly.
Pulling out Qiu Sheng was enough to surprise Jian Ying, and this pulled out another Miao weaving, which shows that this matter is far less simple than she thought, "Aunt Miao personally called you?" ”
"No, it's Aunt Miao's personal girl Xiaocui. She said that Aunt Miao suddenly had unbearable abdominal pain, the second young lady was busy in Xiyuan, and Aunt Ling and Aunt Ping were not there, so she couldn't find anyone else to help, so she came to ask Fang's mother to come over and take a look.
Fang's mother was not there, and the slave maid was scared enough to see Xiaocui, so she went to Ge Tan Yuan with her. ”
Jian Ying pointed her fingers on the table and looked, "Aunt Miao is really sick?" ”
"Yes." Ganlu glanced at Zhou Shu with an uncomfortable expression before continuing, "Aunt Miao didn't know what she didn't eat in her small days, so the slave asked Xiaocui to cook herbal tea and give it to Aunt Miao to drink.
When Aunt Miao was more comfortable, and when she returned to Tianshui Pavilion, Aunt Su and Songluo were gone.
At first, the slave maid only felt depressed when Aunt Su went out for a walk, and she searched around the neighborhood but didn't find it, and called a few people to ask, and they all said that they hadn't seen it.
The slave maid felt that something was wrong, so she hurried to find her mother......"
Jian Ying turned her gaze to pineapple, "What's the matter with you?" ”
