Chapter 196: Baoding Hall Bought It
However, because this medicine has no side effects and is related to personal self-control, the effect is not great.
"Zhu'er knows what this is?" Wen Shuquan's voice was a little colder.
Wen Qingzhu's heart was like electricity, and he thought of several coping plans.
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Aunt Wu's fingertips trembling with excitement.
"I know, there is this kind of medicine sold in Baoding Hall outside." Wen Qingzhu decided to admit the matter in a roundabout way.
Uncle Wen's tone really changed again, and he turned his eyes to look at Aunt Wu: "This is bought from Baodingtang?" ”
Aunt Wu was stunned, the situation was not right.
She blinked, and it took a long time before she said, "Impossible! This medicine was found in Xi'er's house! ”
"Xi'er?" Wen Qingzhu was strange.
Aunt Wu coughed twice, and said solemnly: "Xi'er likes Ah Hu, and it doesn't matter what looks like Yuan'er, so she uses this ...... to make Ah Hu willing." ”
Before she finished her words, Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but laugh, and said sarcastically: "Ah Hu is something!" is also worthy of the maid of my East Courtyard! ”
Aunt Wu's face turned pale, but she still pretended to be calm and explained: "If you don't believe it, you go and find Xi'er to confront you!" ”
Wen Qingzhu squinted at Aunt Wu, why was she so sure that Xi'er would betray her?
"Someone! Go and bring Xi'er! ”
Wen Qingzhu raised his hand, turned around and ordered, "No need!" Jasmine Peony, you go and bring Xi'er here. ”
As he said this, he gave the two of them a subtle look.
"No! Can't let your maids pass, what if they do?! "Aunt Wu is actually a little nervous, she knows that peony is a doctor.
Wen Qingzhu turned around and looked at Aunt Wu with a smile: "Xi'er is my person, I asked my people to bring Xi'er over to the right, you are worried about what I do, I am even more worried about your aunt behind my back!" ”
Aunt Wu was blocked and couldn't say a word.
Seeing that the situation was unclear, Uncle Wen raised his hand and ordered: "Tian Chong, you go with you!" ”
Aunt Wu was still worried, and hurriedly said, "Third Master, otherwise, let Mother You and Xiaocui go over together!" Anyway, there are a lot of people, so it's nothing to have two more pairs of eyes. ”
Uncle Wen didn't say anything, indicating that he acquiesced.
Aunt Wu's confidence came, and she hurriedly asked Mother You and Xiaocui to follow.
As soon as the maids left, the room fell silent.
Wen Qingzhu glanced inside the room and found that Jiang Yuancheng and Wen Qinglan were not there.
She smiled and asked, "Father, didn't you come to me to talk about the fourth sister?" What about the four sisters? ”
"I'm out." Wen Qinglan's voice came from the inner room on the side, sounding weak.
Then the door to the inner chamber was pushed open.
Yuan'er cautiously helped Wen Qinglan and walked out.
She looked very pale, as if she was seriously ill.
After walking for a long time, Wen Qinglan came over, and Uncle Wen waved her to sit down and talk.
Yuan'er hurriedly set up a chair for Wen Qinglan and quickly poured a glass of water.
In front of everyone, a crimson pill was placed in the water cup.
The pill melted when it touched the water, and it melted into a glass of light red water in an instant.
Yuan'er shook the cup to let the medicine completely fuse, and then picked up the cup and sent it to Wen Qinglan's mouth, letting her drink it slowly.
It was amazing that Wen Qinglan's face was visibly rosy to the naked eye.
Wen Qingzhu twisted his eyebrows instantly, what was the medicine that Yuan'er took out?
"Father, let's let my daughter do it." Wen Qinglan's voice was two points more neutral, completely different from the voice she spoke just now.
Wen Qingzhu was vigilant in his heart, it seemed that Wen Qinglan had a change that he didn't know.
"In addition to this medicine on the table, Yuan'er also bought one from Xiao Xing's hand, saying that after eating it for his favorite, he can never change his mind."
"Nonsense!" Uncle Wen's face was uneasy.
Wen Qingzhu's heart sank, she did give Wen Qingmei three pills.
But just in case, Wen Qingmei should still have two in her hand now.
However, looking at the appearance of the medicine just now, Wen Qingzhu has already determined that this is what she gave to Wen Qingmei.
How did it end up in Wen Qinglan's hands?
In the blink of an eye, I saw Wen Qinglan lowering her head: "I thought this was the medicine refined by the seventh sister, it must be foolproof, so I asked Yuan'er to take the medicine to His Highness, but I didn't expect His Highness to ......"
Speaking of this, Wen Qinglan's tears kept falling, and the whole person choked even more.
Uncle Wen turned his face to look over: "Zhu'er, you refined this medicine?" ”
Wen Qingzhu denied without hesitation: "Father, you forgot, as soon as I came in, I said that this medicine was bought from Baoding Hall." ”
"What are you buying this for?!" Wen Shuquan's eyes were dull, and he couldn't see the thoughts in his eyes.
Wen Qingzhu said expressionlessly: "When did my daughter say this, and my daughter bought it?" I just know that Baodingtang has this medicine to buy. ”
"Impossible! How could Baodingtang have this medicine to buy! Aunt Wu leaned on the edge of the table and looked very determined.
Wen Qingzhu said with crooked eyebrows: "If my aunt doesn't believe it, you can go to Baoding Hall to buy it now, not many people know about this thing, but a few days ago, I just happened to be known by the twelfth sister." ”
Aunt Wu still wanted to speak, but Wen Qinglan preemptively said: "Seventh sister's words are true, what do you say about this medicine that Xi'er found over there?" ”
"Xi'er can't have such a thing!" Wen Qingzhu looked at Wen Qinglan categorically, "If the fourth sister doesn't believe it, let my father investigate it well, and I think my father will give me an explanation." ”
Seeing her so confident, Wen Qinglan's eyes flashed, and she began to hesitate in her heart.
Why is she so confident!
This medicine was clearly refined from the pharmacy in the East Courtyard.
was silent, and the people outside dragged Xi'er over.
Everyone looked up and saw that Xi'er was carried by a servant woman.
She closed her eyes and looked fainted. Let's read a book
Wen Qingzhu frowned: "What's the matter?" What happened to Xi'er? ”
She turned to pass, but Mother You stepped forward and stopped her.
When Aunt Wu saw Xi'er like this, her heart settled down.
She covered her lips and smiled: "Mother You, wake Xi'er up!" ”
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the peony, only to see the peony nodding imperceptibly.
Mother You's movements were very rough, shaking Xi'er vigorously, but Xi'er didn't wake up.
Wen Qingzhu keenly noticed Xi'er's eyelashes, which seemed to move.
Xi'er is awake!
Seeing this, Wen Qingzhu retreated, walked to Wen Qinglan and sat down.
Seeing this situation, Aunt Wu and Wen Qinglan both looked over.
Wen Qingzhu asked with a smile: "The fourth sister and aunt look at me like this, but what do you want to ask?" ”
Wen Qinglan shook her head: "It's nothing, I just think it's strange, the seventh sister is not worried." ”
Her eyes darkened, and she looked at Xi'er uneasily.
Mother You over there had already poured a glass of water and splashed it directly on Xi'er's face.
Xi'er was awakened and looked around blankly.
After seeing a large group of people surrounding her, Xi'er hurriedly knelt down: "Miss, third master, aunt, fourth miss." ”
"Tian Chong, come here, hand this medicine to Xi'er and see if it's hers?" Uncle Wen commanded.
Tian Chong stepped forward, took the box and put it in front of Xi'er: "Is this your thing?" ”
"It's not! Slaves don't have such a thing! Xi'er immediately waved her hand, wondering in her heart, isn't this something that Miss gave to Miss Twelve?
Uncle Wen turned his face to look at Aunt Wu, but saw her beckoning.
Mother You turned around and went out, and came in with two servant women with her eyes.
One of the servants knelt down and said, "Back to the third master, this thing was indeed found in Xi'er's room, and it has been for a while. ”
"Slaves don't have such things!" Xi'er was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and Miss said that this kind of thing was very chicken and useless.
It's of little use to the upright.
For people with bad minds, this thing is still useless.
"Tian Chong, you take them down to investigate! In addition, send someone to Baoding Hall and ask if there is such a thing? Uncle Wen ordered without hesitation.
There was a sudden silence in the room.
Wen Qinglan glanced at the room, feeling a little uneasy inexplicably.
She thought for a while and asked Wen Qingzhu: "Why did the seventh sister bring the peony here today?" What about green pottery? ”
"Take care of the storeroom at home." Wen Qingzhu said as a matter of course.
Aunt Wu looked inside the house, and suddenly became scheming, and she found that Jasmine was gone.
"Where's Jasmine! Didn't she just go over together? Aunt Wu shouted out in shock.
Wen Qingzhu's face was even more weird: "Aunt Wu asked Jasmine what she was doing, she used to help take care of things outside Yanyuan, and now that Grandmother, and Mrs. Chi and Mrs. Yan are in a mess, of course she has to go over to greet her." ”
Aunt Wu bit her lip, she didn't believe that Jasmine had gone to Fushoutang at all.
Wen Qingzhu suddenly realized, and turned his head to look at Uncle Wen: "Father, speaking of which, Mrs. Yan and Mrs. Chi are both here, and now the eldest aunt is investigating this matter?" ”
After she mentioned this, Uncle Wen naturally looked sideways at Aunt Wu.
Aunt Wu's heart jumped when she saw it, and she said weakly: "The third master is looking at the concubine like this, and the concubine doesn't know Mrs. Yan. ”
"Really?" Wen Qingzhu smiled, "Mrs. Yan came to see the fourth sister on purpose. ”
Wen Qingzhu glanced at Wen Qinglan, only to see that her face turned a little paler.
There was silence in the room.
Half an hour later, Tian Chong returned.
He bowed his hand and said: "Third master, Baoding Hall does have this kind of medicine for sale, and this medicine ......."
Uncle Wen sank his face: "Just say it." ”
Tian Chong gritted his teeth: "This medicine actually has a slight aphrodisiac effect, to be precise, it is a helping relationship between husband and wife, which is fundamentally different from what Miss Fourth said." ”
"Impossible!" Aunt Wu shouted out in a lost voice.
Wen Qingzhu looked at her with a smile: "Auntie, why are you so sure?" ”
Uncle Wen has actually always been very suspicious of Aunt Wu, but Wu Shan is here, so he can't say much.
But now he had a cold face: "Auntie, there are some things that you can't talk nonsense." ”
At this moment, Wu Shan, who had always been an invisible person, stood up: "Third Master Wen, why don't you ask a doctor to come over and take a look at this medicine?" ”
"Don't worry about this matter for the time being, what about Xi'er's affairs?" Uncle Wen didn't want to give Wu Shan convenience, now that the effect of this medicine is clear, it is now who bought this medicine.
Tian Chong continued to reply: "When this medicine was found out from Xi'er's room, Xi'er was waiting in Miss Seven's room, and she didn't go back to her room for about ten days, and she ......."
"Say!"
"And the people who searched for this medicine are all the people of the West Courtyard!"
Aunt Wu exclaimed: "You are suspicious of me!" ”
She hurriedly turned her head and looked at Uncle Wen very aggrievedly: "Third master, the concubine really didn't wronged Xi'er!" ”
Uncle Wen glanced at Aunt Wu silently.
It was this glance that made Aunt Wu's heart sink.
Finished! Uncle Wen doesn't trust her at all!
Aunt Wu gritted her teeth in anger, this medicine was clearly refined in Wen Qingzhu's pharmacy.
No way! She can't just leave it at that!
"Father, it's true that he is my aunt's descendant, but this does not prove that Xi'er is innocent." Wen Qinglan, who had always been silent, opened her mouth with an unusually calm expression.
