Chapter 27: Poison
The same red embroidery thread from the Heavenly Embroidery Pavilion is two kinds of red.
"Second sister, I thought about it, if there is really a problem, then I am afraid it is out of this embroidery thread. It's just that I don't know what the problem is with the embroidery thread. β
The corners of Zhen Yan's mouth twitched and she took her eyes away from the three pieces of paper, and pulled the handkerchief: "Give me this handkerchief first, and I'll check it." β
Zhen Miao nodded kindly.
Compared with Zhen Yan, who has assisted Wen's in taking care of things for many years, her connections are obviously not enough.
It was only half a day's work, Zhen Yan walked in with a solemn face, and the person who had always been calm, but the fingertips holding the handkerchief trembled slightly.
"Fourth sister, do you know the way, this embroidery thread is soaked with fresh blood saffron juice!"
"Blood saffron?" Zhen Miao was taken aback.
Zhen Yan nodded: "I asked the doctor, this blood saffron is one of the safflowers, extremely domineering, embroidered with the embroidery thread dyed with its fresh juice for the woman to take on her body, it is difficult to conceive after a long time!" β
A cool breath rose from the bottom of Zhen Miao's heart.
She knew that the struggle in this deep mansion compound was very cruel, but it was only a concept, but she didn't expect that after being there, the means were so shocking.
You must know that she has a veil, but she has to add makeup to Zhen Yan!
Zhen Yan obviously thought of this, and slammed the handkerchief on the table: "Fourth sister, this matter must be revealed!" β
It can be regarded as clearing a little obstacle for the fourth sister before leaving the cabinet.
Zhen Yan thought about it like this and secretly smiled bitterly, this matter has not yet come to light, and it is not certain who this bureau is aimed at.
Maybe it's the fourth sister, maybe it's her, maybe, maybe it's the sister-in-law!
However, there are no more than three rooms for them.
"Second sister, how do you check?" Zhen Yan looked at the dazzling red rose and felt dizzy, this world is really terrifying, okay!
Looking at Zhen Miao's stupid appearance, Zhen Yan stretched out her index finger painted with pink Dankou and put a little on her forehead: "Stupid girl, we won't check." β
"Don't check?" Zhen Miao was confused.
Zhen Yan sighed, how do she think that this girl is becoming less and less shrewd than before.
Thinking of Zhen Miao's previous appearance of pinching the tip and being so strong, Zhen Yan shivered, forget it, let's stay.
"Yes, we don't check, after all, we are our daughter's family, and even if we can do some things, we can't stretch our hands too long. The whole Bofu is the housekeeper of the eldest aunt, the housekeeper of the sewing room, and the eldest aunt is married. All we have to do is give this veil to the eldest aunt. Zhen Yan patiently told Zhen Miao to listen.
Zhen Miao nodded teachablely, thinking that the second sister, who was only sixteen years old, had such combat effectiveness, as well as the murderer behind the scenes who was hidden in the shadows and calculated the three of them to death as soon as she made a move, plus her fiancΓ© who was ready to kill her at any time, she suddenly felt that her life was so difficult.
The next two days were calm and waveless, but the day before Qixi Festival, Zhen Jing was not seen to come to greet the old lady.
The eldest lady Jiang said this: "The girl was infected with the cold, and the daughter-in-law made the decision to let her rest in the house, the old lady won't blame the daughter-in-law for making her own opinion, right?" β
Zhen Yan and Zhen Miao glanced at each other.
Yesterday, Zhen Jing was still in good shape.
When the old lady heard this, she looked stunned, and then smiled gently: "Look at your mouth, is the old woman so uncaring for her granddaughter?" It's just that the marriage of the three girls is also close, so you have to ask a good doctor to take a closer look at her. β
"It's nature." Jiang said calmly.
"Oh, it's really not the right time for the third sister to get sick, tomorrow is Tanabata, so wouldn't she even be able to spend the last Tanabata before leaving the pavilion?" Zhen Yu said quickly.
"That's also because this girl has bad luck." Jiang Shi said lightly.
Others don't care, the big house has been in a house for so many years, there is only one concubine, and three girls and one concubine have been born, and the Jiang family has always been an absolute authority.
The second lady said sourly: "Sister-in-law, you are still so blessed, the concubine is sensible, and the daughter is also obedient." Hehe, you said yes, third brother and sister? Oh, third brother and sister, I didn't say it, these days, you're too thin. β
Wen and the third master tossed for a long time, and they were also very thin, although they were not as impulsive as before, they were not willing to suffer, and said calmly: "I don't have a concubine in my yard, I haven't experienced it." β
The eldest lady Jiang raised her eyebrows, although she knew that she was going to the Li family, but in her ears, it was not so comfortable.
I had the heart to say a few words, but I thought of what I found out because of the handkerchief, and I put out my mind again, secretly annoying that Li was a troublemaker, and he didn't have to block people.
The Li family loves to compete with the Wen family, and when she said this, she smiled and said: "I'm afraid the third brother and sister will have to worry about it in the future, I heard that the third uncle has already accepted two rooms." β
As soon as these words came out, the Wen family and Zhen Miao sisters did not look very good.
The third master is indeed becoming more and more ridiculous, although the old lady did not come out of the mess, but he took in two maids one after another.
Now some thoughtful maids are thinking about coming to the third master.
"Second aunt, is the second uncle going to be able to return to Beijing at the end of the year? It's a pity that I can't drink my niece's wedding wine. Zhen Yan seemed to divert the topic.
When Li Shi heard this, his face turned white, and he secretly crumpled the veil.
The second master has been working outside for a few years, and what she is most afraid of is to bring her a few concubines back when the time comes!
The old lady finally spoke: "It's Tanabata tomorrow, don't sit here a few girls, hurry up and prepare, don't lose the face of our Anbo Mansion when the time comes." β
The Great Zhou Dynasty is open to the people, and there are three Daughter's Festivals, which are the fifth day of May, the seventh day of July and the ninth day of September. Because Tanabata is designed for the little lady who has not come out of the cabinet, it is the most valued.
On the day of the Chinese Valentine's Day, the capital will be divided into two cities, east and west, and a daughter's party will be held.
Xicheng is designed for the little lady of a rich family, and Dongcheng is the daughter of an ordinary person. The status is clear, and it is also because this day is a grand blind date in disguise.
The little lady who has not decided to marry is looking forward to meeting the person who is destined to be married, and the little lady who is married is praying for a happy marriage.
Therefore, it is a great pity that a young lady who has reached the age of twelve cannot participate in the Daughter's Day of Qixi Festival.
"The old lady is right, you should prepare the Qiaoguo Huagua earlier, and you should practice more to wear the needle and beg for skill, especially Bing'er and Yu'er are participating for the first time, and if you have the opportunity to compete in public tomorrow, don't show your timidity." Jiang Shi followed and admonished.
She is the lady of the Bofu, and several girls will not behave well tomorrow, and she is the most disgraced.
"Yes." Several people said yes in unison and got up to say goodbye.
"Well, Jing'er, don't visit you in the next few days, don't give you too much sickness." Jiang Shi said lightly.
The old lady glanced at Jiang.
Several sisters left with different thoughts.
Zhen Yan and Zhen Miao were silent all the way, until they separated, they stared at each other and sighed, but they were in no mood to speak, and separated silently.
