Chapter II
Chapter 2 Fighting Methods
There is no impermeable wall in the world, even the imperial city with strict palace bans will reveal the wind.
What's more, it is a noble concubine who is closely related to the wealth of the Hua family, so although the little prince tried his best to hide the bad news, the "caring people" of the Hua family still knew about it, not to mention that there were still people behind it from time to time.
When the news came out that the eldest lady was sick and wanted to find a few girls to serve at the bedside.
Many people who know the inside story and want to fight for wealth are eager to try.
Among these diligent people who visit the sick and serve the sick, the most thoughtful and dedicated is the seven girls, who are not eyelashes and undressed, and they are guarding the front of the hospital bed every day to hand the soup and medicine, scrubbing and serving, and everyone is thin and out of appearance, and even the six girls who serve the eldest lady the most dedicatedly on weekdays are squeezed aside.
Even so, the seven girls did not cry out bitterly.
At noon, in the eldest lady's room, the seventh girl took the medicine boiled by Huang's mother and walked to the eldest lady.
"I'm sorry for my seventh sister!" The eldest lady had just finished drinking the medicine fed by the seventh girl, wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief and sighed.
Hearing this, the seventh girl had tears in her eyes, and she was pure admiration: "How can my mother say that? Xiao Qi should be filial as a child, and for the sake of his mother, he is also willing to replace me. ”
At this time, after the maid in the room passed through, the sixth girl also came in with a little girl carrying a food box.
"Greetings, mother."
After the sixth girl saw the ceremony, after the eldest lady asked her to get up, she took the snack box in the little girl's hand, and handed it to Huang's mother and said: "Mother's appetite is not very good recently, I went to the small kitchen to make glutinous rice and sour jujube cake for my mother." ”
Huang's mother was about to hold it in front of the eldest lady, and her face changed as soon as she opened the snack box. Coincidentally, she was seen by the eldest lady, and she guessed that there was a problem: "I don't have any appetite for the time being, let's eat it later." ”
None of the people present were not human spirits, and they all guessed that there was something wrong with the pastries.
The sixth girl was even more anxious, this pastry was brought by her, she made it herself, and her personal maid took it by herself. She was the first to be unlucky when something went wrong.
Huang's mother was about to retreat with the pastries, but she was suddenly hit by a reckless maid, and the pastries in the box also slipped out and rolled on the ground.
As soon as everyone saw that the pastry rolling on the ground was a crystal mung bean cake, they knew that it was not good.
This crystal jade bean cake is not an ordinary pastry, it is made of 11 kinds of ingredients such as jade beans, arrowroot powder, milk, honey, rose dew, etc., because it is appetizing and easy to restrain the spleen, it is the best to serve the elderly.
This is what the eldest lady made up by herself when she was young. This ingenious and filial piety pastry won the praise of the noble ladies of the city for the eldest lady who was not out of the cabinet.
On weekdays, the eldest lady also likes to eat it very much, one is that it tastes good and nourishing, and the other is that when you look at it, you remember the days when you were famous in Beijing.
The concubine Niangniang learned from the eldest lady, and after entering the palace, she was appreciated by the queen mother with this pastry.
Everyone knows why the eldest lady is sick.
At this time, how can sending this thing not make people think of the concubine, and the originally good pastry fell to the ground and fell to pieces, which made people have a bad association.
And only the big wife, the concubine and the sixth girl in the Hua family know the secret recipe of this pastry.
The sixth girl usually doesn't leak, and she won't use such a stupid method to tease the tiger's whiskers, besides, what good does offending the eldest lady do to her, there must be twists and turns in it.
Sure enough, as soon as the eldest lady saw this, she remembered her hard-working daughter, and immediately became furious, and Huang's mother hurriedly shouted to the surrounding maids, "Who allowed her to come in, pull this unruly out!" ”
This troublesome little girl was originally wearing a curtain outside the house, but later I heard that my wife was sick and there were many people in the house, so I wanted to take the opportunity to enter the house and pretend to be well-behaved, so as to win the eyes of my wife.
Seeing that she had broken through, she immediately knelt down and cried. "Mrs. Kaig...... Mrs. Kai ......, it's not me, someone pushed me! ”
After saying that, she pointed to a maid hiding behind, and this maid happened to be the personal maid of the Seventh Girl.
The personal maid of the seventh girl also immediately knelt down and shouted innocent.
Unexpectedly, a box of pastries pulled both girls into troubled waters, and things became more and more complicated.
At this time, the sixth girl was already able to calm down, and although the seventh girl was shocked, she could only pretend to be calm and hold the shelf.
"The mother was angry, the mother was angry, and the wish of the ill-intentioned man was fulfilled."
"Mother Mingjian, there are only a few people in the family who can make jade bean crystal cakes, and at this time, who will not have long eyes to poke his mother's lung tubes."
Seeing that the eldest lady listened, the sixth girl received again: "Originally, this matter was covered up, but it happened to be shaken out by the maid, which is too much of a coincidence." ”
The six girls' well-founded words pulled the eldest lady's reason back.
The seventh girl also hurriedly continued: "Yes, what the sixth sister said is right, I also hope that my mother will be filial to us, find out the truth, and return us to a clean house." ”
After regaining his composure, he began to order in an orderly manner: "Mother Huang, go and check." ”
After doing everything, the eldest lady returned to the mother of the shrewd, strong, rich, and noble concubine.
…………………………
Compared with the stormy wind in the eldest wife's room, the third wife's Deyuan was quiet and indifferent.
The third wife and the fifth girl, mother and daughter, are still enjoying tea for a long time.
"Mom, auntie, can you make trouble?"
The third lady took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "A little girl with shallow eyelids, who is still hairy, just say a few words, dare to break into the noble house, there will always be an accident." ”
"So who did it this time? Is it the sixth sister or the seventh sister? The fifth girl asked eagerly without drinking tea.
"Your eldest aunt is ruthless, she actually wants to send her two daughters to the palace, maybe she still has the idea of leaving her son and mother." Mrs. Red glanced sideways at her daughter, who was palpitating.
"Don't think about entering the palace with a hot brain."
"No, no, I really don't have this plan, how can I count those people in the palace." The fifth girl hurriedly denied it.
"It's a loss that your brain is quite sober, unlike your sixth sister who is smart but is mistaken by being smart, thinking that she is the only smart person in the world, and everyone else is a fool."
The fifth girl has always believed in her own mother, and when she said this, she knew that her fifth sister had great ambitions and wanted to enter the palace to fight for wealth, and she couldn't help but be a little curious: "The Jiang family is already a first-class family, why is she not satisfied?" ”
"No matter how rich you are, can you be richer than the emperor Laozi? Not only do I want to enter the palace, but I don't want other people to enter the palace. The third lady was a little disdainful.
"I originally arranged a good bitter plan, if it hadn't been exposed at that time, your eldest aunt would have followed her personal maid in the food box to find out on your seventh sister's head, you must know that the personal maid eyes of the two of them were originally working under the same mother."
"Your seventh sister doesn't want to enter the palace, so she bothered to serve so much, just to make your eldest aunt feel that she has a lot of eyes, so as to dispel her thoughts." Speaking of the seven girls and the third wife, there was a little more appreciation between the words.
"She also has a plan from time to time, and after receiving my news, she simply stirred the water so muddy, which made the eldest lady suspicious of her two daughters."
The fifth girl asked curiously, "Then will they still enter the palace?"
The third wife touched her daughter's head lovingly and murmured, "It will be, otherwise how can you get married to the Jiang family?" ”
Hearing this, the five girls lowered their heads shyly, smelled the quiet aroma of their mother's body, and felt a burst of relief.
