Chapter 17: Unclean Hands and Feet
In Mingxin Garden, the doctor had already finished consulting Xie Fuyao, and he was writing a prescription outside, serving tea next to Ziyu, and the second-class maid Qiu Ju and Okra glanced at each other, and Qiu Ju saw the opportunity to sneak into the house.
Xie Fuyao was cowardly, leaning on the couch and closing his eyes to recuperate, Qiu Ju looked at her for a moment, and then stepped forward with a smile on his face and said, "Miss...... It's not easy for the doctor to come here, in addition to the consultation fee, you have to ask the doctor to drink tea or something, so that you can have a good relationship in the future. ”
This is what Xie Fuyao could understand before, according to the past practice, she paid the money, Yuan Zheng went to be a good person, and Qiu Ju waited for her to speak, and then she could go to the treasury to get the money.
Xie Fu didn't open his eyes, and said lazily: "Let Ziyu take you to get the silver, and when you send the doctor to Mingfeng Courtyard, you will bring it over to the eldest aunt." ”
Qiu Ju replied and retreated, and did not forget to leave a disdainful look before leaving, a fool is a fool, so easy to dismiss.
She didn't know that after she withdrew, Xie Fuyao, who was still lazy and lazy, opened his eyes and looked in the direction of the door, his eyes like autumn water were full of ice.
Qiu Ju looked for Ziyu and entered the warehouse together, there were many sundries in the warehouse, and no one took care of it on weekdays, and only Ziyu could come in to take things, and the door was a little choked when it opened.
Ziyu frowned and slapped her nose with her hand, and said in disgust: "I'm really panicking, I'll go get the silver, and you put the jewelry over there that you can't use in the past day into the box." Miss can't remember these things, and we can't let them accumulate dust as subordinates. ”
Qiu Ju was a little reluctant to do it, but when he heard that these were all things that Xie Fuyao couldn't remember, and then he saw that they were all valuable jewelry, the unhappiness in Fang Cai's heart immediately disappeared, and he hurriedly responded: "What my sister said is, I'll clean it up." ”
The two of them went their separate ways, Qiu Ju collected things in the box, and carefully watched Ziyu's movements, seeing that she didn't look this way, she moved very quickly and put a few jewelry necklaces or something into her sleeves.
Ziyu over there didn't notice anything unusual, and quickly took the silver and beckoned Qiu Ju to leave.
When he came out, the doctor just finished writing the prescription, and Qiu Ju sent the doctor to Mingfeng Courtyard.
As soon as she left, Ziyu entered the house, and when Xie Fuyao saw her come in, he lazily asked, "What's going on?"
Ziyu couldn't hold back the anger on her face: "Miss guessed right, Qiu Ju really has unclean hands and feet." But the slave maid didn't understand, since the young lady knew, why did the slave take her into the storeroom?"
Xie Fuyao just said: "I have my own reason." And the others refused to say any more.
Ziyu didn't dare to ask when she saw her like this, waited for her to lie down, wrung out a handkerchief soaked in cold water and attached it to her forehead to reduce fever, and felt more and more in her heart that Miss seemed to have more of a decisive and undeniable momentum than before.
That feeling is exuded in her bones, making people feel that the woman in front of her is enough even to command thousands of troops, and when she gives orders, others can't help but want to obey her orders, not because she is Miss Xie Fu's identity to obey her.
After lunch, the decoctioned medicine was delivered, Xie Fuyao had rested for most of the day and already felt much better, she didn't like to drink medicine, and she frowned even more when she smelled the bitter smell of the medicinal soup: "The smell alone is so bitter, isn't it even more bitter to drink?"
Ziyu persuaded: "Miss, the medicine is bitter, you should drink it, you can't be so sick all the time." ”
Xie Fuyao showed a painful expression, and was about to pinch his nose and pour it down, but as soon as he took a sip, he felt that the medicine had a fishy smell, mixed with the original bitterness, and it was very difficult to swallow, so he spit it out.
"Something is wrong with this medicine. "It's not the first time she's taken medicine to treat wind and cold, and she never remembers any prescription that can have this kind of starry smell, even if it's very light, but she has always been sensitive to the bitter taste of the medicinal soup, so she will sense that something is wrong.
Xie Fuyao pushed the medicine away and stopped drinking, his face was solemn: "Someone put something in the medicine." ”
Ziyu was taken aback: "What? This is all handled by the eldest lady, and the eldest lady is ...... What kind of heart does Ann have?"
Xie Fuyao shook his head: "Even you can be the first to suspect her, needless to say, do you think she would make such a low-level mistake?"
Ziyu stiffened, feeling cold and soaked behind her, and asked in a low voice, "It's not the eldest lady, who could it be?"
Who is it? There are too many people in Xie Fu who want her to die, and anyone can possibly do it, but Xie Fuyao thought of another thing.
In her previous life, she vaguely remembered that her mother Hua Jinsu was still very good in the past, but for some reason she couldn't afford to get sick after catching a cold and catching a cold.
Everyone only thought that she couldn't bear the wind and cold by herself, and even Xie Fuyao thought so, until the little aunt told her a few days ago that her mother's death was strange.
Now that she herself has a cold and starts to take medicine, she just tastes that the medicine is wrong, and immediately thinks of the death of her mother, it seems that the person behind her has begun to attack her.
She instructed Ziyu: "Pour the medicine, don't make a noise about this matter, and find a way to get a copy of the residue of this medicine for me." Go get some drinks in the kitchen, and don't let anyone know about it. ”
Ziyu nodded and wrote it down.
People instinctively have the mentality of following the strong, Ziyu was already loyal, but now seeing that Xie Fuyao has become so calm and organized, she is even more determined to follow her loyally in the future.
At night, Xie Fu ordered Ziyu to smear the wine on her back and palms and feet, covering the quilt and sweating.
This method was learned from when she was in the barracks before, the barracks were short of materials, the northwest was cold all year round, and the wine could warm up the body, so there was no shortage of wine.
In the next few days, the medicine was still delivered every day, Xie Fuyao didn't drink it as usual, poured it all out, and relied on this method to survive.
After getting better, Xie Fuyao excused himself from being sick for a few days and panicked, and said to Yuan Zheng that he wanted to go out for a walk, she had always been a fun-loving person before, Yuan Zheng agreed without thinking too much, and she led Ziyu out of the door.
The two found an unfamiliar pharmacy to check the residue left, but they looked at several stores in succession and no one saw anything wrong, and the statement was the same: "This recipe is warm and tonic, there is nothing wrong with it, and it is suitable for treating wind and cold." As for this fishy smell, perhaps because some herbs have been damp, there is no major problem, and eating it will not cause any harm to people. ”
has already found seven or eight shops, even if she gives out the money and asks the doctor to tell the truth, all the doctors still say the same, but Xie Fuyao doesn't want to believe it, and her intuition tells her that this medicine must be weird.
Ziyu asked, "Miss, I remember that our wife also has a pharmacy industry, why don't we go to our own pharmacy and ask?"
