Chapter 173: Disaster in the Hou Mansion
After a few hors d'oeuvres, the old lady glanced at the grandmother behind her, and soon, the maids brought up the exquisite dishes that had been prepared one after another.
The old lady knew that all the qiē in the house in the past few days had been ordered by the fifth aunt, including the purchase and purchase of these dishes.
In front of him are a few light but delicate dishes, and in front of Changrong Hou are his favorite special dishes. The fifth aunt is very careful, and she has been with Changronghou for many years, so how can she not understand his preferences.
At this time, the resolute middle-aged man's eyes fell on one of the dishes, "This is ......"
"This is made by a concubine." The fifth aunt smiled lightly, and her face showed a touch of shyness. It seems that the old man remembered something.
Yes, this pearl hibiscus soup Changronghou remembers very clearly, when she was in the hometown of the fifth aunt, she often sent it to wrap herself at night, which was a dish from her hometown, which caused Changronghou's infinite memories for a while.
It seems to have returned to many years ago, when the young and innocent woman stood in front of her, and now, the woman has given birth to her own children and endured several years of suffering.
Changronghou picked up the spoon and stretched out his hand directly, and everyone saw it in their eyes, and they knew a little bit in their hearts.
Liu Yunhua lowered her head, at this moment she was actually a little glad that her mother couldn't see this scene, and her father actually disregarded her mother's face so much, oh no, her father now has no place for her mother in her heart.
It's all this fox! got together with Liu Yunshu and killed his mother. Liu Yunhua gritted her teeth secretly, the hatred in her heart grew infinitely, and then looked at the table full of sumptuous dishes, and the moonlight sprinkled on this table of delicacies, as if there was a strange light.
"Father, this is your favorite Luzhou roast goose, Yunhua will clip a piece for you." Suddenly, this soft voice sounded, and everyone looked at the woman who had been ignored.
Liu Yunhua stood up slightly, carefully stretched out her hand and put a piece of fatty roast meat into the bowl in front of Changronghou's eyes, she lowered her eyes obediently, and did not see the arrogant appearance before.
Marquis Changrong naturally knew that Liu Yunhua specially went to Tianfu Temple to pray for himself and the Hou Mansion, this daughter...... He was more disappointed, and now that her mother was gone, could she be a little more sensible?
No matter what, in the end, it is her own daughter, even if she has made so many mistakes before.
Changronghou didn't move, Liu Yunhua's heart was a little nervous, and then, the man slowly picked up the piece of roast meat and put it in his mouth, and responded lightly.
Liu Yunhua's gaze fell on his chewing cheeks, and he couldn't move away for a long time, and for a while his heart was full of mixed feelings, and there was a warmth that seemed to be about to spring up in his eyes.
She tried to suppress her sudden sadness, and lowered her head not to let others see her strange appearance. Because she knew that there were cold eyes staring at her all the time.
Liu Yunhua took a deep breath and picked up the wine glass in front of her, and the maid behind her immediately stepped forward and poured her a glass of mellow wine.
"Father, today is my father's birthday, and the congratulatory gift my daughter gave to my father is the scriptures copied on the Tianfu Temple, hoping to add blessings to my father. Besides, the daughter also wants to say to her father that it was the daughter who used to be, and ask for her father's forgiveness. ”
She was sincere, without the slightest delicate artificiality, Changronghou looked at the elegant woman in front of him and found that she had indeed changed a lot. I can't help but think of her when she was young, snuggling up to her and being coquettish and well-behaved.
What made her become arrogant after that, this qiē should be all Lei's fault. As a mother-in-law, she failed to teach her children well, not only could she not guide them with virtue, but instead added fuel and vinegar to sow discord and destroy the stability in the backyard, but this qiē is in the past.
"Daughter, a glass to my father."
The eyes of the second master and the second lady lit up, and this second lady really became touching.
Changrong Hou's eyes seemed to flash something, he stood up, his tall body completely enveloped Liu Yunhua under the moonlight, he lowered his head slightly, the breeze blew, Liu Yunhua smelled a familiar smell, as if a long time ago, when he was still on his father's back.
However, there is no turning back.
Marquis Changrong raised his head and drank, and the second master nodded yes.
"Here are the dishes that Young Master Xi likes to eat, come, the second sister will serve them for you." Liu Yunhua suddenly became so enthusiastic, which made Liu Chengxi very unaccustomed.
You must know that in the past, the second sister always looked superior, and although she didn't have any excessive words and deeds to herself, she couldn't be considered affectionate.
The more this happens, the more strange Liu Chengxi feels.
He looked at Liu Yunhua suspiciously, her hand holding the plate was so frozen.
"Young Master Xi!" The second lady mentioned on the side, how could she be so ignorant of etiquette. She stretched out her hand and took the plate in Liu Yunhua's hand, "Thank you, Second Miss, Young Master Xi is still not sensible." ”
"Second aunt, just treat it as if this is your own house, you're welcome."
Liu Yunhua smiled generously, looked at the virtuous face of the second lady, and recalled what his mother had said.
She said that the second lady is a scheming person, and it is best if such a person does not interfere with the river water, otherwise he will never be able to stay. But today, she just happened to bump into it, it's all fate, if the mother knows about it, she should be very much in favor of it.
The fourth aunt's eyes fell on the face of the Marquis of Changrong, and then she took it back in frustration, and now it is the fifth aunt who is favored, just can't ask for anything more, there are so many things, even the lady is no longer there, and he is very lucky that he was not kicked out of the house.
She turned her head to look at Liu Yunqing beside her, "Fifth Miss, why don't you eat?" ”
In the past few days, Liu Yunqing has always been very hungry in the courtyard of the fourth aunt, and only in front of food will she look like a living person, but now, the stunned woman is just staring at the dishes on the table so solemnly, not moving.
Perhaps she subconsciously knew that these dishes were poisonous, so her body instinctively refused to touch them.
"Fifth Miss?" The fourth aunt called a few more times, and Marquis Changrong frowned and looked over. Liu Yunhua was shocked, now that the effect of the medicine has not started, she doesn't want any accidents to happen at a critical moment.
Liu Yunhua immediately stood up, "Fifth sister, this is your favorite food, come, eat a few bites." ”
She personally sandwiched a few dishes for Liu Yunqing, and the eyes of the woman opposite moved slightly.
Puppets cannot resist orders.
Looking at the woman who was chewing slowly, Liu Yunhua smiled with satisfaction.
"Thank you, Second Miss." The fourth aunt smiled a little embarrassed, and she didn't know why, she felt that Liu Yunqing seemed to be very obedient to the second lady's words.
"The fourth aunt doesn't have to be polite, they are all family."
Perhaps, this dinner is the warmest and most pleasant night in the Changrong Marquis Mansion in all these years.
But what should come is always coming.
A cool breeze blew, and a dark cloud slowly spread out from the sky, obscuring the hazy full moon.
"On this day, how can you say that change has changed?" The old lady frowned and raised her eyes, but for some reason, she had a strange feeling in her heart.
Suddenly, Liu Chengxi exclaimed, "Ah, I ......" His face quickly turned purple at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the second lady was startled, "Young Master Xi, what's wrong with you?!" ”
She was trying to go over and check, not wanting to stiffen when she had just stood up.
The frail ones are the most poisonous.
Immediately afterwards, the fifth aunt's face changed, and Changrong Hou immediately noticed her strangeness, "What's wrong with you?" ”
"Lord Hou......"
For a while, everyone at the round table changed their faces, and even the old lady covered her abdomen in disbelief, what was going on? She glanced painedly, and one after another someone collapsed on the round table.
Liu Yunhua sat upright, looking at the crowd that had fallen into one piece in the blink of an eye, her eyes fell on Yun Shu's face opposite, and her originally elegant face was now covered with a layer of dead ash, as if there was a smear of blood hanging on the corner of her mouth.
"Hmph,, are you still dying?"
The cold voice seemed to come from hell.
Even a burly man like Changrong Hou couldn't exert his strength at the moment, "Yunhua, you ......"
He has been on the battlefield for a long time, so he naturally knows that everyone has been poisoned at this moment, but Liu Yunhua, she stood up faintly, but her eyes were not on herself.
"Liu Yunshu, you didn't expect it, right? I would poison the whole house on top of my father's birthday. ”
"Huh? You...... You ......" the old lady's voice was weak, but the sharp pain quickly disappeared, but the limbs still had no strength. What's going on? Isn't it poisoned?
Everyone noticed the change in their bodies, and they were surprised, but they didn't even have the strength to straighten their backs.
"Sister Yan, I didn't expect you to really ignore the grace of parenting, and even poison your grandmother and father."
"Hmph, what about my mother? You know how she died?! Liu Yunhua's voice suddenly became sharp, and a strange and terrifying smile appeared on her face.
"You are to blame for this qiē! If it weren't for your appearance, I would still be the favored concubine of the Marquis of Changrong, and I would be the one who sat on the throne of the crown princess! You are but the mud of the earth, why compare you with me? Originally, killing you was as simple as pinching an ant to death, but your luck was too good. So what about this time, didn't expect it, right? ”
Liu Yunhua smiled and raised his head proudly.
It turned out that Fang Cai, her well-behaved and generous were all pretended. No, it's been a while since she pretended to be safe! To poison everyone today, on her father's birthday!
The shock and anger in Changronghou's heart couldn't be suppressed, and he ...... How could such a rebellious femme fatale woman be born!
"But don't worry, this poison won't make you die immediately. Especially you! I won't let you die so easily, Liu Yunshu, I want you to taste the taste of life is better than death!
With that, Liu Yunhua stood up and pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, and at this time, the dark clouds dispersed, and the hazy moonlight fell on this courtyard again.
The dagger glowed with a cold light, approaching Yun Shu step by step.
