After entering the second room, the original slaves could not be left behind, so they chose the loyal ones to bring them over.
When the sixth grandmother was there, she deducted people, and after Xianyun took charge of the family, she treated them more leniently, but after all, the family's money was limited, far less than the monthly salary of the servants under the Marquis of Jingqi.
Xianyun had the intention to take some clues from their mouths, and secretly let the wind out, and they were all vying to invite credit at this time.
She sat quietly in the back room, Qinghua and Hao's mother were interrogating outside, and Miao'er stood guard outside the door and stared at the slaves.
"I've seen the girl who painted Qinghua, the slave maid is Yao'er in the kitchen, just a maid who burns the fire, the slave and maid remember Li's mother's instructions that day, and have been content in the kitchen, now in retrospect, Li's mother behaved strangely that day, and she must know something to be kind enough to mention the slave." There were only two people in the house, Qinghua and Hao's mother, and she was not afraid when she said it, but unfortunately she was terrified when she thought that Li's mother was scolded to death by a cane.
There are many people who know that Li's mother takes care of her many times on weekdays.
Now only by finding the appreciation of the seventh grandmother can she escape this fate.
I really know everything, but I hate that I know too little.
Qinghua and Hao's mother glanced at each other, smiled slightly, nodded at her, and motioned to continue.
"In those days, the sixth grandmother had a bad appetite, her temper was good and bad, and every time the food sent was not to taste, she saw the doctor catch a few pieces of medicine, and the slaves and maids were looking forward to everything being fine after the sixth grandmother drank the medicine, and she must be very nervous and careful about the medicine. The kitchen steward's mother-in-law was originally the second wife's person, and was later bought by the sixth grandmother, and Hu's mother was indeed the sixth grandmother's companion.
A moment later. "Where were you at that time? ”
Yao'er hurriedly said: "The slave maid had been burning the fire in the kitchen at that time, and the second lady had just come back that day, and the sixth grandmother said that she was going to catch the wind for the second lady, so she ordered to cook a lot of dishes. The slave and maid were in charge of the two stoves, so they only saw when Hu's mother went out after she came in, but the slave and maid didn't know ......"
"But the slave has learned some pharmacology. Felt...... I feel ......" and leaned over, Qinghua nodded at her: "You just say it." ”
Yao'er breathed a sigh of relief: "I think it's like a medicine for the fetus......" said and peeked at Qinghua again, and saw that the other party's face was as usual, and then said: "The slave noticed it when dealing with those medicinal residues, although I don't know what kind of formula it is, but several of the medicinal materials with a large amount of herbs are common medicines for women to maintain the fetus, and later talked about it with Li's mother." Mother Li asked the slave to forget about it forever, and if Sister Qinghua didn't believe it, she could call a doctor to examine it...... However, the slave took only a small part and hid it. ”
Qinghua's face turned happy and glanced at Hao's mother.
Hao's mother returned a clear look, changed her face and said to Yao'er, "Do you know what you're talking about?" If you find out that what you say is pure gibberish. Even if you are struck with a rod at once, it will not take away your sins. "If you want a promise, you must first indicate whether what you say is true.
Yao'er's face turned pale with fright, but she still stubbornly arched her back and said slowly: "The slave has learned pharmacology and knows the recipes of some spices, so she hides those medicinal materials in the sachet as a last resort. ”
With trembling hands trembling slightly, she took out two sachets, Hao's mother's face gradually softened, and she hesitated for a moment before taking it.
"What you said needs to be confirmed many times, if it is true. You'll be credited, and it's up to you to decide what to do. Hao's mother pushed the sachet to Qinghua, tilted her head with her eyes tilted and whispered to Yao'er.
Qinghua took the sachet and came to Xianyun's side softly.
"Girl, sachet."
"She's only taking it out now, so she must be sure of it. Now lying is not good for her, and it is more likely that it is true. "Sniff carefully, and the rich floral fragrance is indeed mixed with the smell of medicinal herbs.
The sixth grandmother is a widow, she suddenly became pregnant, and she was born with a peaceful heart, and it is clear what the second wife is thinking.
The seventh master's career is not smooth, how can he provoke criticism again, no wonder the second wife has hidden the corpse of the sixth grandmother, I am afraid that the stomach of the sixth grandmother has already appeared.
Thinking of the second grandmother's speculation and the disappointment in the eyes of the eldest lady before leaving, it should have been after being poisoned that someone ordered someone to clean up the sixth grandmother together, but unfortunately the specific situation of the day could not be explored.
Why did the sixth grandmother murder the second wife for no reason? This mystery is still unsolved.
Xianyun held the sachet and muttered to himself.
Qinghua heard the meaning of her words, and guessed: "Girl, the eldest grandmother must be inseparable from this matter, and the sixth grandmother is very obedient to the eldest grandmother's words, if Yao'er is talking about the matter, the second lady will definitely not be able to tolerate the child, with the sixth grandmother's temperament...... I'm just afraid ......"
As soon as the words were broken, the cloud in Xianyun's heart suddenly dissipated, and everything became clear.
intercepted Qinghua's words, and said approvingly: "You are right, if the sixth grandmother asks the second grandmother for help, and the eldest grandmother takes the opportunity to provoke, it is indeed possible with the sixth grandmother's temperament, and then ask if there are any other people who know about this?" ”
Qingzhi said yes, and quietly retreated, leaving Xianyun alone to meditate.
After a morning of interrogation, Yao'er was the only one who knew about it, if it weren't for Li's mother being cautious and sincere to Yao'er, I was afraid that Yao'er would also be disposed of by the grandmother.
At dinner, Qi Ziyin came back to eat together, talking about the poisonous blood that was given to her yesterday.
"Yun'er, my grandmother's arsenic is very much, but I just asked that no one bought arsenic in the house that day, they should have sent it secretly, but they all used arsenic in their three rooms that day, and this is a transaction I explored from the secret." Qi Ziyin spread out the paper.
Xianyun lowered his head and took a closer look, there were three catties, what was the use of asking for so much arsenic.
She was puzzled.
Qi Ziyin tapped her nose and said, "It is said that someone has a strange disease, has found a remedy, and needs arsenic as the main material, but ......" The words changed. Snorted coldly: "Just in case, I prepared more, and sent it to every room, as if I was afraid that others would not know, this excuse is not bad, but it is full of loopholes when you study it carefully." ”
At this point, Xian Yun stopped the dishes and chopsticks: "You can ask the second grandmother about this matter." ”
called Qinghua and told her to take the new tea she had just gotten and go to the second grandmother.
The two of them lost their appetite. simply stopped eating, and Xianyun told him about the day's events together.
Qi Ziyin opened the sachet and observed carefully, and Xianyun added an extra lamp.
A moment later. Qi Ziyin's eyes lit up: "It's a medicine for the fetus." ”
Who is the child? The sixth sister-in-law was staying at home, and she noticed a powerful gaze coming over, and said with a smile: "This matter has nothing to do with me." ”
As he spoke, he took a mandarin duck pillow and let Xianyun lie down. He lay next to each other.
Xianyun was slightly stunned, leaned over happily, and asked reluctantly: "Who could that be?" ”
The two of them looked at each other, obviously thinking of going together.
If the child is in the third room, there will be traces.
"If the grandmother wants to shirk the responsibility, she will definitely shirk to us, she just moved here today, and the old aunt and wife are present. Tomorrow is not for sure. Xianyun's face was hot, and he raised his eyebrows and smiled.
Half an hour later, Qing Hua came back, along with the prescription of the day's home remedies.
Xianyun couldn't understand it, and quietly waited for Qi Ziyin's conclusion.
Qi Ziyin shook his head: "This recipe is true." One or two white noodles, one jujube, three coins for hair, six coins for arsenic, and external application.
Qinghua was surprised: "But the second grandmother said that she has a maid under her, and she has not been well after applying it for a long time." ”
"The recovery of external application is slow, and preparing a large amount of arsenic turns out to be used for this purpose." Qi Ziyin's face changed slightly.
Qinghua hurriedly retreated.
Xianyun sighed: "Although I understand it, it's a pity that there is no evidence." ”
"Now that we've gone deep into the tiger's den, sooner or later there will be evidence." Qi Ziyin put his arm around her shoulder. After thinking about it, he said slowly: "The old Jing Qi Hou won another victory in the southwest, the virtuous concubine is pregnant, and the power of the Jing Qi Hou in the court has faintly overshadowed the Shen family, I am afraid that the days in the house are getting more and more excessive, you should be more careful in the mansion, I will arrange a few talented people to come in tomorrow." Keep you safe. ”
"With you by my side, what can I do."
"The medical officer has been lost, this journey is difficult to continue, and this dynasty has always had no intersection between civil and military, so I plan to follow General Ge on the march and suppress the northeast border." The title of the Marquis of Jingqi is not uncommon for him, and he wants to protect his wife and children with his own skills, which is the result of what he has been thinking about in the future, and General Ge also agrees very much.
He was not around, and Jing Qihou was less afraid.
Xianyun saw that her eyes were shining, her eyes were determined, she knew that he had paid attention, and she also understood his intentions, the second room was a concubine, he was not around, she could live quietly and peacefully.
diverted Jing Qihou's attention.
On the second day, when I asked Mrs. Tai to say goodbye, I met the third lady.
Xianyun greeted people with a smile on his face, and bent his knees to bless.
The third lady looked curious: "I saw two stunning women just now, I thought it was the aunt of the uncle, but when I inquired, I found out that it was the seventh master, the seventh master is really a blessing, the seventh grandmother is really virtuous, where to find the woman, you might as well find a few for the uncle, lest the uncle's eyes are always staring at the pretty maid in other people's hands." ”
Xian Yun smiled calmly: "The two of you who the third aunt saw are not my credit, but they are still rewarded by the eldest master, if the eldest uncle wants it, the eldest lord will definitely be able to find it." ”
"But when it comes to appearance, the two of them are naturally not as good as the grandmother."
The third lady also agreed: "Naturally, but the seventh grandmother still manages the two of them well, and shows off less, I don't know if I think you deliberately beat the eldest grandmother." ”
Xianyun was surprised, this is completely slanderous.
Still smiled respectfully: "The lesson of the third aunt is that she will never let you see the two of them in the future." "You're jealous of their beauty.
The maid beside the third lady whispered a few times in her ear, and the third lady left in a hurry.
The place where Xianyun now lives is Akihito Garden.
The uncle and the third master are well-known in the house, and the maids around the third lady are all good, just to prevent the third master from going out to find someone, it is better to find someone else than to find her to cultivate it, so that it is easy to control.
The three rooms and the big room are all out of the house, Mrs. Tai prefers the big room, the third room has long been very resentful, and because the uncle has robbed the three masters' pretty maids, the three rooms are not in harmony with each other.
When dealing with Hu's mother, Haitang dealt with it together, and the two of them were quiet for a while, and recently they have become restless again, thinking of this, Xianyun's eyes lit up.
