The mother-in-law quickly brought the kind of aquatic grass that Ruan Qingzhi said, and it was a big bundle of sturdy and sturdy, and I was afraid that it would not be enough.

Ruan Qingzhi was embarrassed to laugh, and pretended to be serious and ordered: "Take a small handful and wash it, twist it and dry it, add one penny of licorice, one coin of coptis chinensis, eight coins of black beans, and fry three bowls of water into one bowl." ”

The mothers-in-law promised to do so one by one, but Ruan Qingzhi stopped them: "You don't have to go out." Ask someone to carry a bucket of water, and then bring a stove over, and wash it in this warm pavilion. ”

Wash in the warm pavilion, of course, fry in the warm pavilion by the way, which is clearly suspicious to prevent people from doing anything. The children may not understand, but some of the older women have changed their faces.

When the medicine was fried on the stove, Mrs. Liu gradually calmed down, and soon thought of this section, and hurriedly rushed to Ruan Qingzhi and asked urgently: "What is the reason why the eldest girl is not allowed to take the medicine out of the room?" Could it be that someone would poison my daughter? My Liu family has never offended anyone......"

Ruan Qingzhi glanced up at her, and her attitude was not friendly: "Someone wants to harm you, it may not be because you have offended people, there are many bad people in this world." There was a housekeeper in my family named Qian Ma who taught me a sentence: 'People are harmless tigers, and tigers are harmful'. ”

On the soft couch, Ruan Biyun raised her head suddenly.

The little girls standing in the corner had just stopped crying not long ago, and now they retreated in horror at the same time. Someone murmured: "Mom Qian, haven't you been beaten to death by Sister Yun......"

Another lady hurriedly covered her mouth, and the two of them staggered back at the same time and bumped into the bystanders, causing a small exclamation of confusion.

Ruan Qingzhi sat quietly on the edge of the bed and rubbed Miss Liu San's wrist, deaf to all the sounds around her.

The atmosphere in the warm pavilion was dull and tense, and the medicine jar on the stove suddenly boiled, and the hot gas rushed through the air hole and made a thin whistle, which frightened several people in unison, and their heartbeats were chaotic.

The rich medicinal fragrance spreads.

Mrs. Liu slowly straightened up, straightened her clothes, and bowed to Ruan Qingzhi: "When things happen suddenly, I'm concerned about it." There are many offenses in Shicai, please forgive Miss Ruan. ”

"Aunt Liu doesn't have to be like this," Ruan Qingzhi raised her hand to help, "As a parent, it is normal for people to care about panic. If I were you, it would be hard to get rid of the hatred in my heart if I caught the murderer with a thousand knives at this moment. ”

Mrs. Liu raised her head suddenly: "Murderer...... Is there really a murderer? Didn't Jiao'er get bitten by a water poison bug? ”

"Of course it's best if there is no murderer." Ruan Qingzhi squinted her eyes and looked at Ruan Biyun, "I just think it's a little strange: Sister Liu San and I both came out to chase Yun'er, why did Yun'er and Fourth Sister Wang go to the rockery, I also went to the rockery, only Sister Liu San went to the pool alone and fell into the water?" ”

Mrs. Liu bit the corner of her lip and was stunned for a long time, looked at her and asked, "Didn't you see Jiao'er when you came out?" Jiao'er She ...... You didn't really hurt it, did you? ”

Ruan Qingzhi shook his head, but he was not angry because he was questioned in person: "I came out late, and I asked the little guy at the door to know that Yun'er went in the direction of the rockery." I chased after me and got lost without seeing anyone, until the boys came to find me after the accident. ”

Mrs. Luan had already interrogated the little guys before, and at this time she hurriedly came over and said, "That's right, the little guys said the same thing!" They thought that the four children had gone to the rockery, and no one knew why Miss Liu San was in the pool! ”

There is clearly something going on in between. The ladies present were secretly frightened, and a few simply called their children to their side and hugged them, looking at the people around them vigilantly.

A few people even looked suspiciously at Ruan Biyun and Miss Wang Si on the soft couch.

Miss Wang Si's face turned pale and shrunk. Ruan Biyun also looked panicked, but looked up at Ruan Qingzhi: "Sister." ”

At this time, the medicine on the stove was almost fried, Ruan Qingzhi got up to make way for the doctor and the mother-in-law who fed the medicine, and the atmosphere in the warm pavilion was no longer as depressing as before, but much more tense.

Ruan Biyun got up from the couch and ran over and grabbed Ruan Qingzhi's sleeve: "Sister, we all believe that you have done your best, no matter whether Third Sister Liu can wake up or not, don't be too sad...... You are really a very good person, and you will definitely have friends in the future. ”

On the couch, Miss Wang Si let out an exclamation: "I'm not her friend, I'm not!" ”

"Sister Yao!" Ruan Biyun was anxious, her eyes were red as if she was about to cry: "My sister is very good, you will like her, really!" ”

"What's good!" Miss Wang Si cried: "She herself said that life is life, people are people!" I'm sure she's a good person, but she's terrible! Liu San's sister had just turned enemies into friends with her, and she fell into the pool in a blink of an eye...... Who would dare to be friends with her? We are not phoenixes, and we are not protected by God! ”

"No, it's none of my sister's business......" Ruan Biyun shook her head and cried pitifully.

The ladies and ladies present all looked strange, and the two mothers-in-law who were originally standing beside Ruan Qingzhi took two steps back quietly.

The two little girls in the corner covered their faces with their hands and quietly bit their ears: "...... One is fierce, the other is fierce, just stay away from both of them. ”

At this time, the mother-in-law beside the bed suddenly let out an exclamation: "It's moving!" Miss Liu San moved! ”

A cheer was like a spring thunder, the ice and snow melted and the haze dissipated, and the lifeless warm pavilion was full of new vitality.

"Jiao'er! My dear—" Mrs. Liu cried and threw herself over, hugging the little girl on the bed and crying to the core.

Mrs. Luan breathed a sigh of relief, beckoned Ruan Qingzhi to her, and sighed, "Thanks to you today!" ”

Ruan Biyun's face turned pale in an instant, and she stumbled and almost couldn't stand on her feet.

But no one came to help her. The little sisters, who used to laugh and rush at the sight of her, now stood against the wall, looking at her with horror and fear.

Ruan Biyun hated and gritted her teeth: "Sister, you are so good......"

In the end, Miss Wang Si came over to help her, and several old ladies who had been invited to rest behind the screen also came out. The crying in the warm pavilion gradually stopped, and the laughter gradually increased, and everyone in the Luan family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Miss Liu San had just woken up, her body was stiff and she didn't obey the call, and she couldn't speak, just watching Mrs. Liu shed tears.

Mrs. Liu cried and laughed for a while, and then she was worried again, got up and ran to Ruan Qingzhi and asked, "Why didn't she speak?" The body is also stiff...... Is this what she will do in the future? ”

This time, without waiting for Ruan Qingzhi to answer, the doctor had already said for her: "Don't worry, madam, the effect of the medicine needs to be slowly dissipated, and it will be fine after a while." The remaining poison on the third lady's body has not been cleared, and this medicine can also be drunk two more times. ”

Ruan Qingzhi nodded in agreement with the doctor's statement. Sure enough, it didn't take long for Miss Liu San on the bed to cry: "Mother, I almost died!" ”

When Mrs. Liu heard this, tears fell again.

Ruan Biyun and Miss Wang Si ran to the bedside together holding hands, and cried together: "They said you came out to find us, how did you find the pond?" How could you fall into the water? Aren't you usually the smartest? ”

Everyone in the warm pavilion held their breath.

Ruan Biyun almost fainted from crying, and mourned: "Are we rushing with the water?" My sister and I almost died when we fell into the water at your house that night in mid-autumn, and today you fell into the water again......"

Miss Liu San still didn't answer and just cried, and Mrs. Liu pounced again: "Jiao'er, you say!" How did you get to the edge of the pool, and how did you end up in the water? Say! ”

"Mother." Miss Liu San muttered, her tears were contained, and her eyes were a little straight.

Seeing this, Mrs. Liu cried again.

Miss Wang Si raised her sleeves to wipe her tears, but she couldn't wipe them dry, so she simply cried again: "Why don't you speak?" Don't you know it yourself? Somehow walked to the edge of the pool? Fell for no apparent reason? It's even stranger that there are poisonous insects in the pool......"

Miss Liu San looked at her steadily, still not speaking or crying.

Mrs. Liu was anxious, and turned back to Ruan Qingzhi: "Eldest sister, come and take a look, why can't she even cry?" Is it poison that hasn't been solved yet? ”

Ruan Qingzhi didn't step forward, stood where she was and said calmly: "It's okay, she was scared by you." Don't crowd so many people around her, the air is not good. ”

The mothers-in-law hurriedly invited Ruan Biyun and Miss Wang Si aside, leaving only Mrs. Liu and the doctor beside them, and Miss Liu San's face finally regained a little anger.

Mrs. Luan was anxious, standing at the end of the bed and asking urgently: "Miss Liusan, you have something to say!" Did my minions lead you the wrong way and take you to the water's edge? ”

"No," Miss Liu San couldn't stop crying as soon as she spoke.

Everyone in the cabinet was so anxious that they were angry, and they didn't dare to ask for fear of scaring her, and everyone felt uncomfortable.

Miss Liu San sobbed for a long time, and finally said in a dumb voice: "I didn't find Sister Yun, so I wanted to walk around by myself...... I accidentally stepped on the moss and slipped down. ”

So, it was an accident.

Dozens of people, old and young, breathed a sigh of relief, and each said a few auspicious words to the mother and daughter of the Liu family, such as "If you don't die in a big disaster, you will have a blessing in the future", and the atmosphere returned to relaxation.

Mrs. Liu hurriedly got up again, thanked Mrs. Ruan and Ruan Qingzhi again, and apologized to everyone: "My Jiao'er is naughty herself, causing such a big incident, disturbing a good wedding banquet for the Luan family, and causing the girls to be frightened, it's really ......."

Everyone said that it was okay and persuaded them. Mrs. Liu wanted to pull her daughter to kowtow to Ruan Qingzhi, but was persuaded by Mrs. Ruan. The two sides said polite words back and forth, and Mrs. Liu was so grateful that she couldn't wait to give her daughter to Ruan Qingzhi as a maid on the spot.

Ruan Biyun and Miss Wang Si watched from the side, and the handkerchief in their hands was almost crushed.

Laughing and laughing for a while, it was getting late. The ladies and ladies of each family said goodbye one after another, and the warm pavilion gradually quieted down.

When Mrs. Wang Shangshu got up to say goodbye, Ruan Biyun's eyes were red and she followed Miss Wang Si and came over: "Grandmother, Sister Yao asked me to help her see the patterns, I want to go first." ”

Old Madam Ruan waved her hand and didn't say a word.

"Sister......" Ruan Biyun walked up to Ruan Qingzhi again, and stopped talking.

Ruan Qingzhi squeezed her hand and carefully instructed, "Go home early." If it is inconvenient for the Wang family to send a car to deliver it, send a message to the family to pick it up, and don't return late. ”

Ruan Biyun responded with a smile, and retired gently, with thoughtful etiquette and impeccable manners.

It's a pity that no one appreciates it in the warm pavilion.

When the Wang family went out, Miss Liu San, who was lying on the bed, suddenly lifted the quilt and cried loudly.

Mrs. Liu was startled, jumped up and rushed over: "What's wrong with you, my son?" The doctor said that you should cover your sweat, what are you making a fuss about? ”

"Mother!" Miss Liu San sat up and threw herself into her mother's arms, crying hoarsely: "I almost died!" She's going to kill me! They're going to kill me!! ”

Mrs. Liu's hair suddenly stood on end.

Everyone in the Luan family looked at each other. It was easy to wait for Miss Liu San's cry to be lower, and Mrs. Luan asked tentatively, "Who wants to kill you?" Did the three girls have a nightmare? ”

Miss Liu San raised her head, revealing a pair of eyes looking around in horror.

Ruan Qingzhi stretched his neck and swallowed a piece of snack, poured two mouthfuls of water and hurriedly turned around: "Who did it?" Wang Yuyao? Or is it my family? ”

Miss Liu San shuddered and shrank back into her mother's arms.

Old Madam Luan put the Buddha beads in her hand on the table, looked at Ruan Qingzhi and asked, "Why, Miss Liu San was still killed?" ”

"Yes." Ruan Qingzhi sighed: "I said it nonsense before. There are no poisonous insects in the pool at all, and Liu San's sister should have been pushed into the water after being poisoned. I think Liu Sanmei herself probably knows who the murderer is, and she is like a fish in her throat. ”

No vomiting, no pleasure.

Sure enough, Miss Liu San immediately raised her head: "You know a lot!" I wonder if you're with them! ”

Ruan Qingzhi laughed when he heard this: "If you really believe that I am in a group with them, you should continue to pretend to be asleep at this moment, and you will cry when I leave." ”

Miss Liu San was speechless, and her face turned red with anger: "You understand!" You're smart! No one else is as good as you! ”

"It was meant to be." Ruan Qingzhi's expression was calm.

Everyone was amused by her, and the atmosphere eased a little, and Mrs. Liu hurriedly asked, "What's going on?" ”

Miss Liu San leaned against the head of the bed with the quilt on, gritted her teeth and said, "They didn't go to the rockery at all, and they waited for me on the path not long after they went out." It was Ruan Biyun who tricked me into eating poison, and it was Wang Yuyao who pushed me into the water! They said...... When I'm dead, there's no one in the way! ”

Mrs. Liu's face turned pale, and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Old Madam Luan didn't understand these words too much, so Lin explained to her in a low voice: "I heard that the original Princess Rui in the palace is Miss Liu San, Ruan ...... I'm afraid the second girl is for this, right? ”

Ruan Qingzhi heard about this for the first time, and he was not surprised, but only sighed and shook his head: "It's ruthless enough." ”

Miss Liu San snorted coldly: "You are Ruan Biyun's sister, most of you are also complicit with her, right?" ”

"I'm not!" Ruan Qingzhi stood up, "Ruan Biyun's move kills two birds with one stone, and I am another bird!" ”

Miss Liu San laughed scoffed.

Mrs. Liu immediately figured it out: "If I kill my Jiao'er, there will be no one to compete with her for the position of princess; Blame Miss Ruan again—"

Ruan Qingzhi continued: "The Ruan family has one less mourning star. ”

Miss Liu San shrank into the quilt and cried again: "I don't want to compete with her to be a princess!" Why is she so ruthless! ”

"This matter ......," Mrs. Liu wanted to say but stopped.

Old Madam Ruan stood up with a bamboo cane: "The Ruan family will definitely give you an explanation for this matter!" ”

Mrs. Liu hurriedly stood up: "The old lady doesn't have to be like this, children don't have to do things lightly or seriously, and they can't be taken seriously." Last time, the two girls in your house had an accident in our house, and we have not made amends...... What's more, the eldest girl has already rescued Jiao'er, and this matter is over. ”

"The green branch is the green branch, and that evil obstacle is that evil obstacle, how can it be mixed up!" Old Madam Ruan's eyes were cold: "She calculates the life of her eldest sister, and she wants her eldest sister to repay her debts and pay off her debts, there is no such reason!" ”

Mrs. Liu was stunned and bowed her head and said yes.

Miss Liu San jumped out of bed and ran over to look at Ruan Qingzhi: "So you really have a grudge against Ruan Biyun?" You pretended to be at the table before! ”

Ruan Qingzhi raised his hand and touched her forehead, frowning: "You have to go back and continue to sweat, don't run around before the residual poison is cleared, otherwise you will cry at the root of the disease." ”

Miss Liu San was stupid: "Why are you like an old mother!" ”

Ruan Qingzhi pushed her back to the quilt and sat down, then turned to look at everyone, and sighed: "Su Ri made trouble in his own house, and everyone pretended to be confused and passed." Now that he has made trouble outside, he almost killed Liu San's sister...... Grandmother, how long will our family pamper her! ”

Old Madam Luan clenched the Buddhist beads in her hand and said coldly: "The Luan family is not considered 'outside'. It's just that the mother-in-law, the two gates of the Prime Minister's Mansion can cover the child's willful comparison and oppression of the eldest sister, is it possible that it can also hide the life lawsuit? ”

If you can really hide the lawsuit of human life, it is a great crime to commit murder when the prime minister of the dynasty arsoned with her daughter.

"I won't indulge her again this time," Old Madam Ruan gritted her teeth, "Over the years, I've endured it to the end!" ”

Everyone felt chills in their hearts when they thought of Ruan Biyun being so ruthless at such a young age. Old Madam Luan burst into tears again, tremblingly pulled Ruan Qingzhi to her side, and asked her how she had been doing all these years.

Mrs. Liu sighed: "It can be seen that the rumors of the world cannot be believed, even the eyes of people themselves. I only thought that it was good everywhere when I looked at Miss Ruan Er, but who knew that it was so cruel inside; However, Miss Ruan has been silent for so many years, but her character and temperament are good. ”

Old Madam Luan held Ruan Qingzhi's hand and wiped her tears and said, "I see that the eldest sister is doing everything!" What kind of phoenix fate, our family doesn't believe in those! ”

This kind of thing can be said by the elderly, but the young people dare not easily echo it.

Everyone groaned, and Ruan Qingzhi hesitated and spoke: "Grandmother, in fact, I have always wanted to ask, how many times has my 'bad life' been fulfilled since I was a child?" How many times has Yun'er's phoenix fate been fulfilled? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was inexplicably a little nervous.

Old Madam Ruan groaned with a bamboo cane, raised her head and asked, "How many times do you remember yourself?" ”

Ruan Qingzhi narrowed his eyes and sneered slightly: "Many times, but none of them are natural disasters. The fire in Xifangyuan was because someone threw a fire fold in from outside, fell off the rockery because someone pushed me behind, and it was Ruan Biyun's own hand that fell into the water on a mid-autumn night...... So I wonder, is it the bad things that confirm my 'bad life', or is it that others want to cover up the bad things with my 'bad life'? ”

Old Madam Ruan was silent for a long time and sighed: "You are right, not a single one is a natural disaster. ”

Everything in the past 14 years has been man-made. Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion knows that the eldest lady is not blessed by heaven and earth, so everyone can practice her at will, no matter what happens, just say that her life is not good.

So, what about Ruan Biyun's phoenix life? The old lady was a little hesitant in her heart.

Ruan Biyun's phoenix life is really not made up by the Prime Minister's Mansion. First of all, on the day of birth, the hundred birds in the house offered Rui, and then the great minister took the initiative to come to the door to cut off his life at the Zhou banquet, and Miss Ruan's second phoenix life is really not adulterated. Therefore, over the years, Nguyen Van Trung and his wife have treated her like a jewel, and seeing her is like seeing the bright future of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

However, will such a vicious and vicious phoenix bring auspiciousness or calamity to the house? Mrs. Ruan has been thinking about this question lately, and she has not been able to make a decision until now.

Such a long silence means something else in the eyes of others.

Mrs. Liu wiped the corners of her eyes and laughed: "It turns out that the so-called phoenix fate is nothing more than that, it seems that God is not blind." Thank you Mrs. Ruan for making decisions for my family, our Guogong Mansion knows what to do. - Aunt Luan, Jiao'er has caused a lot of trouble to the house today, and we will make amends another day. It was not early, and my mother and daughter took their leave. ”

The mothers-in-law of the Liu family were brought over, and they helped each other to carry Miss Liu San out. Old Madam Ruan felt that her face was dull and she didn't want to stay longer, so she also got up and said goodbye.

Old Madam Luan pulled Ruan Qingzhi reluctantly, and talked for a while, seeing that it was almost dark before she was willing to let go.

When he went out, the feast had already dispersed, and there were few people in front of the door. Mama Zhou, who was accompanied by Yun and Yue, was also sent out and got into the carriage together at the door.

When going to the banquet, the maids and servants were placed in another place to entertain them alone, in order not to cause panic, there was no rumor about Miss Liu San's falling into the water, so she didn't know about it, and she still laughed and chatted happily when she got into the carriage.

Ruan Qingzhi was holding a bag of all kinds of beaded flowers stuffed to her by Old Lady Luan, and she always felt a little puzzled in her heart.

The grandmother in name had been too close to her. Even if you are really close to your relatives, you can't do it much, right?

Xu was tired all day, and Ruan Qingzhi felt a little tired at this moment. My mind was jumbled with today's events, and my head was dizzy.

The carriage swayed and swayed, and in my ears was the squeaking sound of the two little girls with clouds and moons, and the two smiling faces became more and more blurred-

Wrong!

Ruan Qingzhi sat up suddenly, but his body seemed to be out of his control, and he fell forward inexplicably.

"Miss!!" The two little girls rushed over to pull her, but no one caught her. The three of them staggered in mid-air and slammed into the front window.

Something happened!

Ruan Qingzhi, who hit the car window, finally reacted: it wasn't that she was dizzy just now, but that the carriage almost overturned!

She hurriedly stabilized her figure and turned to look at the old lady, and sure enough, the old man had fallen in the corner, hugging each other with Mama Zhou, with a painful expression.

"Uncle Lu, what's going on?!" Ruan Qingzhi asked the driver in a loud voice.

But no one answered outside. Only the sound of horses' hooves was chaotic, and the carriages staggered back and forth like drunks on the streets late at night.

Ruan Qingzhi held the car window with one hand, lifted the curtain with the other hand and looked out, but his vision was still blurry as if he had been separated by a mist.

Before she could see the figure, a blinding white light rushed towards the door in front of her.

"Be careful—" Companion Moon's mournful cry was as sharp as a needle piercing an eardrum.
