Chapter 263: Deliberately
The fourth master came, and the Hou Ye gave An Rong a look and asked her to go back.
An Rong lowered her head, pretending not to see it, she wanted to stay and listen to what the fourth master said to him.
Don't fool his dad to help again.
An Rong didn't leave, Hou Ye was really not good, so he had to let her stay.
Manager Fu opened the door and let the fourth master come in, but the fourth master didn't expect An Rong to be there, and was slightly stunned.
"Say hello to the fourth uncle," An Rong greeted him very obediently.
The fourth master nodded and smiled, "I didn't expect the fourth girl to be there, I heard that there were assassins in the mansion when I entered the mansion, did you catch them?" ”
These words were not for An Rong, An Rong blessed his body, and then stepped aside.
The Hou Ye invited the fourth master to sit.
"Manager Fang Caifu also said that the fourth brother is happy, what is the happy event?" Hou Ye asked with a smile.
The fourth master smiled, "It's not a matter of staying in Beijing, if nothing else, it's already nine out of ten." ”
After speaking, the fourth master smiled with emotion, "I earned 10,000 taels of silver in office, and in order to return to Beijing, I sent them all out and burned money." ”
Even the fourth master himself can't figure it out, it's obviously difficult to be an official in Beijing, under the emperor's nose, he is constrained everywhere, and he is released to pick up oil and water, which is a big handful, but he is reluctant to pay attention to the flowers of Kyoto.
However, the words of the fourth master are good, and he is reluctant to live in the Hou Mansion for decades, and he is reluctant to live in the Hou Mansion, the brother of the Hou Ye, and the second master.
An Rong couldn't figure out why the fourth master came to her father this time, she thought at first that the fourth master was here to show off, that is, without her father's help, he could stay in Beijing.
But the more I listened, the more I felt that she was here to complain, accusing her father of being kind, and obviously being able to help the fourth master, but he spent an extra 10,000 taels of silver for nothing.
An Rong noticed that her father's face had not changed from beginning to end. An Rong didn't believe it, and his father couldn't hear it.
An Rong thought that the Hou Ye could speak, but who would have thought that the fourth master would change his words and say, "Now I can stay in Beijing." Although the third brother is still outward, he has real power in his hands. It's close, it's better than Jingguan, it's just one of the fifth brother, and the second brother and I are pondering, why don't we help the fifth brother so that he can stay in Kyoto? ”
An Rong suddenly raised his eyes and looked at the fourth master, his eyebrows slightly tightened.
The second master and the fourth master will be such good people, help the fifth master?
An Rong figured it out in an instant.
This is forcing her father. Give her dad a problem.
The second master and the fourth master pay attention to brotherly love, and they can't bear to let the fifth master go out, they proposed to help the fifth master stay in Beijing, and now ask her father's opinion, whether to release or stay in Beijing depends on her father's meaning.
Her father agreed, and the matter of the fifth master's stay in Beijing fell on her father.
Her father disagreed, so in the future, it was his father who didn't pay attention to brotherhood.
Presumably, with the honest temperament of the fifth master, he should also complain about her father, right?
Hou Ye thought of this, and frowned slightly. Suddenly he laughed again.
He didn't pick up the teacup, only gently flicked the lid of the teacup, nodded and smiled. "I'll ask the fifth brother what he means when I go back, if he wants to stay in Beijing, help him."
The fourth old man frowned slightly, there was a look of indifference in his eyes, but his face was full of smiles, and he was so good.
After the fourth master left, Manager Fu persuaded Hou Ye, "Even if Hou Ye wants to help the fifth master, he should help again next year." If the fifth master also stayed in Beijing, Yushitai should impeach the Hou Ye for using power for personal gain. ”
The court officials serve a three-year term. It's the rule, although there are a lot of times when the rules aren't followed. But if there are too many times and too obvious, you should be envied and jealous.
Even if the fourth master sought the help of the second master and made a lot of silver, it was the master of the Marquis of Wu'an.
Hou Ye smiled lightly and said firmly, "The fifth brother will not stay in Beijing." ”
Manager Fu was stunned, he didn't expect that Hou Ye was sure to say that, Manager Fu was not afraid of 10,000, he was afraid of what if, "What if the second master and the fourth master persuade the fifth master?" ”
Hou Ye frowned, and then a smile crossed the corner of his mouth.
When the fifth master came back, he told him how many things he had done in office, and he should be rewarded by the imperial court next year, and at that time, let the Hou Ye help him say a good word or two, and he would go to Lizhou for three years.
Lizhou is the homeland of the aunt who passed away from the fifth master, and the Hou Ye still remembers that the aunt's greatest wish before her death is to be able to return to her roots.
Although the fifth master is simple, he is filial and loyal, and he will do what he says, and since he said it, he will not give up.
Came out of the outer study and returned to the inner courtyard in peace.
At the second gate, An Rong saw a maid sending the doctor out.
The maid was in the courtyard of the eldest lady, and when she saw An Rong, she hurriedly saluted, "The slave maid has seen the four girls." ”
An Rong nodded lightly, his eyes fell on the doctor, and he pretended not to know, "What's wrong with the eldest lady?" ”
The maid hurriedly replied, "The eldest lady's face is a little red and swollen, and she has used medicine to reduce the swelling, and it has subsided a lot, but the doctor said that the eldest lady's face is swollen due to poisoning, and if the toxicity is not removed, it will swell sooner or later." ”
The maid was glad that the letter had passed through the hands of many people before it reached the eldest lady, otherwise I don't know what it would have swollen into, the master was angry and angry, they were the most unlucky to be maids.
An Rong nodded and stepped into the inner courtyard.
When there was no one, Peony couldn't help but ask An Rong, "Is the girl really not giving the eldest lady an antidote?" ”
"Look at my mood," An Rong said with a good smile.
But soon, An Rong couldn't laugh anymore.
Because she had just walked to the garden, Dong'er came to say, "Girl, it's not good, the eldest lady sent four maids to search Linglong Garden and took a lot of things. ”
An Rong's face suddenly turned black, and the bottom of his eyes was cold.
"What did you take?" Peony asked hurriedly.
Dong'er hurriedly replied, "It's just some medicinal herbs and powders." ”
Peony pouted, "It must be that seeing that the girl didn't give the antidote, the eldest lady asked people to go to Linglong Garden to search." ”
Dong'er nodded, and said, "It's not a girl's house, even our house has been searched." ”
Peony snorted heavily, she was not afraid of them searching, would she put such an important thing in the house?
Peony took out her waist bag from her purse and handed it to An Rongdao, "Even the house has been searched, and I haven't found an antidote, I will definitely find a way, if I ask the slave maid." The slave doesn't dare not give it, the antidote is still for the girl to take. ”
Seeing the small medicine bag in Peony's hand, An Rong's anger disappeared by half in an instant.
She took the medicine bag in her hand. Walk towards Matsuzuru-in.
In the main house, the old lady is eating bird's nest porridge.
An Rong went in and asked for peace. Then he said, "Grandmother, the eldest lady sent someone to search my Linglong Garden, and took my medicine!" ”
The old lady had already heard about this, and she stretched out her hand to beckon An Rong to sit down.
Shen Anxi sat on the side, unable to help it, "Fourth sister." You don't know, Mrs. Fang Cai came to Songhe Courtyard, she told her grandmother that although she has no housekeeping rights, she is still the head of the Hou Mansion, and now she has been calculated, Dongmei is dead, and there is no proof of death, she dare not doubt that it is the fourth sister who calculated her, but you are the fourth girl from the Hou Mansion. Holding the poison in her hand, it was really dangerous, and she had already sent the maid to search for the poison. She would destroy the poison in front of her grandmother. ”
The Hou Mansion does have family rules and cannot hide drugs.
The eldest lady said that, and the old lady couldn't say that she wouldn't let her check, not to mention that she was playing while chopping.
Who doesn't know that the eldest lady is fake when she checks the poison and is true when she looks for the antidote, but what she says is so that people can't object.
The maid and the woman couldn't tell which was the poison and which was the antidote.
It's all confiscated.
Just go back and let the doctor look for it.
Shen Anxi explained, and An Rong stopped talking. Sit down next to the old lady.
Shen Anxi twisted the handkerchief and asked, "Fourth sister." Has your antidote been searched? ”
An Rong nullified his nose and sneered in his heart. If she is famous, not only her eldest lady will say, but she will also, "I carry the antidote with me, how can I really be so ruthless that my face will be swollen all the time?" ”
Shen Anxi's eyes widened in astonishment, and then he burst out laughing.
The sad eldest lady provoked the fourth sister again, obediently obedient, didn't do anything, and it was okay to hurry up.
The fourth sister just wanted them to suffer more and improve their memory, so they used their brains, and it was strange that the fourth sister would give them an antidote so easily.
Don't say it, the eldest lady is really angry at this time.
The eldest lady asked the newly invited doctor to check the medicine bag to see which one was the antidote, and after the doctor checked them one by one, he said, "If you return to Madame, these are not these." ”
The eldest lady was angry at that time, and the partial maid came in to say, "The eldest lady, the fourth girl of the antidote carries ...... with her." ”
After hearing this, the eldest lady couldn't hold back any longer, and casually put the medicine bag on the table up.
Suddenly, a smell of medicine filled the room.
Inside the house, the old lady looked at An Rong, and her eyes were full of helplessness.
Because An Rong lost his hand and threw the medicine bag into the teacup.
Well, it's not a simple accident.
It was Shen Anxi who dragged An Rong and asked what the antidote looked like, and An Rong showed it to her.
After reading it, Shen Anxi returned the medicine bag to An Rong.
At that time, the lid of the tea cup on the table was opened, and An Rong was thirsty and wanted to drink the tea after it cooled.
No, when An Rong received the medicine bag, his hand was not steady, and the medicine bag was lost in the teacup.
The coincidence really can't be too coincidental, and the discerning person who is coincidental knows that An Rong is intentional at a glance.
She just did it on purpose.
The old lady looked at her as if she was pleading, and she was angry.
The housewife can search her house casually, take whatever she wants, and look like she should talk about the rules of the Hou Mansion?
If she remembered the rules of the Hou Mansion, she would steal her secret recipe and be deprived of the title of Mrs. Commandment?
She just wants her to beg for it, and she is so angry that she is itching!
Seeing that the medicine bag was soaked in the tea, An Rong deliberately exclaimed, "It's over, there is only such a package of antidote, now that the medicinal materials are gone, the antidote is gone, and the face will be swollen for a month or two before it subsides." ”
An Rong looked regretful.
In fact, my heart has blossomed.
Especially with Shen Anxi beside him, adding oil and vinegar, "A lady who has nothing to learn about medical skills, now that the medicinal materials are gone, I will die in the future, and I have nothing to learn to learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting is the right thing." ”
An Rong said that what Shen Anxi said was reasonable.
Before she got married, she didn't study medicine and didn't touch medicinal herbs anymore. (To be continued) R580
