Chapter 32: Reconciliation
Tinghe walked in anxiously, followed by a somewhat restrained maid.
"The slave listens to the lotus, and there is something important to report."
Old Madam Yan's face was already very ugly, but it had reached this point, so she still said to Tinghe: "Say it." "It's just that the tone is not so kind.
"The slave maid has always been in the same place as Yuchen, and she can be said to know Yuchen's every move, but the slave maid never knew that Yuchen had an understanding of the efficacy of food and medicine."
"So the slave maid wondered, how did Yuchen know that this nutmeg powder has the effect of making people poison and faint, and also wondered why he kept half a package in his room even though this powder had already been used?"
"Hmm." Old Madam Yan responded a little absent-mindedly.
"The slave suspected that someone had framed Yuchen, who was usually straightforward, and might have offended people inadvertently but didn't know it, so I asked the sweeping maid in the courtyard if anyone had been in and out of the room during my absence from Yuchen these days."
"Sure enough, as I expected, this scene was bumped into by Yuan Xing, who was passing by that day." Listening to Hechao, he beckoned behind him and motioned for Yuan Xing to step forward and reply.
It was the first time for Yuan Xing to face such a big scene, and he was inevitably a little at a loss.
"Tell me what you see?" Old Madam Yan opened her eyes tiredly, and looked sharply at the little girl in blue shirt kneeling on the ground.
"Slave... Slaves... Today, Youlan Courtyard is a slave and maid on duty, and it was originally not the turn of the slave maid, but when I heard that Sister He followed the young lady to the princess's mansion, Mother Song was called to help in the front hall again, and Sister Yuan Huan couldn't find anyone, so only the slave and maid were left...... The slave maid saw a figure flash in the side room when passing by the side room in the evening, the slave maid thought it was Sister Yuchen who was back, so she called out, but did not get a response, the slave maid was puzzled and stepped forward to look, but did not see anyone, only to see a string of bracelets on the ground, as if someone was hurriedly dropped, the slave maid felt familiar and picked it up, only to realize that this was like the beloved thing of Sister Yuan Huan..."
Yuan Huan subconsciously looked at his wrist, not thinking that this move was even more suspicious.
"When the slave maid went to the kitchen with Sister Yuchen to get food a few days ago, I saw Sister Yuan Huan talking to Mrs. Fang about what curative things, and then I asked Sister Yuan Huan, Sister Yuan Huan said that it was for Miss and wanted to make up for Miss ..."
"Mrs. Fang..."
Mrs. Fang's eyes rolled from side to side, and she thought carefully, "Back to the old lady, there is such a thing. ”
Old Madam Yan's eyes narrowed, and she threw the bracelet on the ground, and the silver beads suddenly rolled all over the ground, "Bold slave!" What else do you have to say! ”
Yuan Huan's eyes widened, and he looked at the crowd in a little panic, "It's not a slave, it's not a slave, it's not a slave, it's a slave..."
"Old lady, when the slave maid went to Youlan Courtyard, I heard that a few days ago, Yuan Huan designed Yuchen to steal because of his hatred for Yuchen, but I didn't expect to be found out, and I was beaten ten times by Mother Song, and the slave maid thought maybe there was something related to this..."
"Sister Meng, is there such a thing?" Old Madam Yan asked Yan Meng.
"Back to grandmother, yes."
Old Madam Yan slapped the table with a heavy face, "Okay, this maid is really lawless, poisoning the master for her own selfish desires, Yan Mansion can't tolerate such a femme fatale-hearted girl, Director Li, reward her with fifty sticks, sell it!" ”。
"Old lady, the slave is wronged, the slave is wronged!" I seemed to see a ray of dawn in the afterglow, and I was about to say something, but I didn't expect to be gagged, making a "woo-woo-" sound.
"Old lady!" Seeing that her daughter was being pulled away, Ma Pozi stepped forward to pull and pull, but she was unable to match the strength of the man, was pushed aside, and with a terrible cry, she quickly crawled to her feet, "Old lady-Huan'er..."
"Besides, even you can't escape responsibility!" Old Madam Yan looked at the crying Ma Pozi with a stiff face, without a trace of emotion.
"In the future, if I find out that there are these filthy things in this mansion again, see if I will show you mercy!" Old Madam Yan slammed her cane on the ground, it was already late, her physical strength was a little unable to support it, this matter was so loud, it was a very easy thing to solve, and it had been dragged on until now, and she couldn't help but glance at Zhao with a little meaning.
Yan Chunan sent Yan Meng and his party to Youlan Courtyard, Song's mother was standing at the gate of the courtyard with anxiety and waiting, and when she saw Yan Meng coming back, she hurriedly greeted her with a smile:
"The washing has been prepared for the girl, just waiting for the girl to return." Ignoring the posture of the group, he said to Yan Meng as usual.
Yan Meng stared at Mother Song for a while, Mother Song was not there when the accident happened just now, presumably Yuan Huan had an accident, so hurry up and find an opportunity to clean up their relationship.
Yan Meng's smile for no reason made Song's mother's mind even more bottomless.
"Mom is tired, it's so late, and she's still cleaning up." Also, if you are not your own person in the first place, you don't have to worry so much.
"It's all a slave's business, it's getting late, so Miss should go and freshen up." The smile on the corner of Song's mother mouth was almost unbearable, but she was still relieved in her heart.
"Mother Lao is missing." Yan Meng turned around and left, and whispered to Tinghe, "Go to the warehouse and bring the wound medicine, and coat the rain and dust tonight." Saying that, he touched Yuchen's hand, found that his hands were cold, his palms were hot, and Yuchen had fainted on the way back, touched her forehead, and continued, "It is estimated that there will be a fever later, boil some soup and prepare it for her, I will work hard for you tonight, listen to the lotus." ”
"Where's the girl?" Tinghe looked at Yuchen who was already unconscious lying on Liuxi's back, his eyes were full of distress, if she was there today, she would definitely not let Yuchen do such a thing.
Yan Meng saw the self-blame in Tinghe's eyes, and gently squeezed her hand, "I don't blame you." "Blame her for not protecting you.
Yan Chunan settled them down, went back, and said to Yan Meng before leaving: "That matter, wait for me to arrange it." ”
Yan Meng knew that what he said was about sending Ah Yuan to her, but she somehow always felt that there was something wrong with Ah Yuan, but it was not good to say it directly to Yan Chunan, so she had to respond first, thinking that with Yan Chunan's temperament, I was afraid that even if that Ah Yuan had a problem, it would not be easy to detect, so it was better to wait a few days to put Ah Yuan by her side and take a good look for herself.
It was late at night, and Youlan Temple fell into silence again, but Qingyun Temple, which should have been quiet after the bustle, was difficult to calm down.
"Madam, the slave maid thinks that there is really something wrong with that girl, you didn't see her eyes just now...."Mother Li stood beside Zhao and whispered.
Today's facts were jointly designed by Zhao and Li's mother, in order to measure the size that day, the scene that Li's mother saw, after Li's mother came back, she always felt that Yan Meng seemed to be a different person, and thought of the Cen family girl she heard about some time ago, and Li's mother didn't know where to give birth to a panic. It just so happened that day that she met Yuan Huan after being punished by Song's mother, she was pouring bitter water with Ma Pozi, so she came up with this strategy, just to see if Yan Meng had changed.
"Regardless of the girl, I just think that the old lady should have noticed something, and with the deep meaning in her eyes just now, I always think that she should have seen something......" The old man just now recognized that the eyes made her panic for no reason.
Zhao interrupted Li's mother's words, if the affairs of the Kang family hadn't been arranged in advance by my brother a few days ago, I would have almost been discovered by the old woman again, "Mom, the old lady didn't look at me right just now... You said she didn't mean not to continue investigating, but she found out..."
Mother Li sighed, "Madam, don't worry about whether the old lady knows or not, you are a housewife, no matter what means you use, as long as the Yan family does not go wrong, the old lady will not say anything." ”
"But I always feel panicked, I can't say what I feel..."Zhao rubbed his chest, trying to make his breath easier.
"What's wrong?" The sudden male voice made Zhao startled, and when he saw the person clearly, his nose was a little sour, and he didn't notice that his eyes were covered with a basket of tears.
"You know you're coming." No matter how soft she is these days, even if she cooks soup for him every day and sends it over, he still has that hard-hearted appearance, as if she was the one who did wrong that day, even if it is the Mid-Autumn Festival feast today, he is also intimate with the Jiang family and full of love, and he doesn't want to give her a hot face, but it seems that the Jiang family is a pair made in heaven with him. She didn't remember that she was the housemother all the time, and she couldn't do it with a low posture to please him, but he seemed to be unaware, and he went to Zhuangzi for half a year and didn't come back to see him shush and ask for warmth, so he suffered so many days of cold treatment, and a grievance rose in his heart, and he felt that his eyes were hot, and he couldn't bear to let the tears fall.
Looking at the stubborn appearance of his wife in front of him, Yan Bocheng seemed to return to the past, it was her appearance that made him make up his mind to marry her, so many years have passed, the passion and love of the year have been extinguished in this long time, and after a long time, this friendship has not been consciously suspicious... If he hadn't seen her fragile appearance in front of his daughter today, he would have completely forgotten about her fragility...
Yan Bocheng cleared his throat a little unnaturally, stepped forward and hugged Zhao in his arms, "I just went to see Yuan'er, she slept well..."
Mother Li didn't know when she withdrew, leaving the husband and wife alone in the room, Zhao finally couldn't hold herself, tears came down the corners of her eyes, her hands wrapped around Yan Bocheng's sturdy waist, and tears rolled out of her eyes wantonly.
Listening to his wife's whispered sobs in his ears, Yan Bocheng's heart turned into a puddle of water, and he only felt infinite tenderness gushing out from the depths of his heart...
Chunseiin
"Auntie, why did you just persuade Daddy to go to Madame's place?" Yan Jingshu never called Zhao her mother in front of Aunt Jiang in private, but she didn't dare to rashly call Aunt Jiang "mother".
Aunt Jiang said a little stunned: "Your father, he... There is such a big thing happening to the fourth lady today, and the master shouldn't be coming to me. ”
Yan Jingshu looked at Aunt Jiang with some distress, she knew that her position was embarrassing, and she also understood the sourness in her aunt's heart, so she pretended not to care and smiled, "Auntie has me!" ”
