Yun Xiu's seven tricks are exquisite, she has just been sad, and the breath in her heart is not smooth, Zhongyi Hou added another blockage, and she was speechless for a while: "Hou Ye, you, you??"

Ling Xiao also felt that he was a little heavier this time, so he gave her the unengraved white tiger ink jade seal that he often brought with him, which was considered an apology, but his mouth was righteous: "The Xue family is guilty, but Nian Yun Yushi has contributed a lot to the Privy Council." “

"Thank you Master Hou for your extrajudicial kindness." Yun Xiu looked coldly at the black jade chapter in her hand, put it back on the table, there was fire in her heart, and she couldn't send it out, who made her obsessed with this evil breath.

Now he closes the hot soup with a cold mouth, stretches his head and shrinks his head with a knife, and simply goes to the black with a heart.

But she wouldn't ask Ling Xiao to do anything again.

Ling Xiao, looking at the returned chapter, his heart was not happy, when did he pay so much attention to which girl, in his opinion, tying up Mrs. Xue is not a cure, and hitting a snake and hitting seven inches is his style.

So Yun Xiu left, he didn't stop.

One day passed in a panic, the sky was about to get dark, and the old lady's condition improved slightly. The two doctors of the Ye family breathed a sigh of relief, and came out of the house to talk back to Yunzhidong and their families.

The hearts of the people were put back into their stomachs, and they were hungry when they looked at the hour.

Mother Fang had already prepared the meal, and then called Yun Xiu aside alone, and pointed to the other food box: "Girl, the old lady specially explained when she was sober, you can't neglect the distinguished guests, you send the food to the front yard." “

Yun Xiu looked at Fang's mother, then at the food box, and said that she didn't want to go.

"Girl, you're also older," Fang's mother sighed, "The old slave really doesn't hide it. The old lady can't blame the old man for her illness, her old man is also afraid that the entire Yun family will be wiped out, although the second girl is married to the Guogong Mansion, but the far water can't save the near fire, and the only thing she can ask for now is the Hou Ye. “

"Mom waited for her grandmother to wake up, just persuade her to relax," Yun Xiu smiled bitterly in her heart, she couldn't say that she caused the trouble, "but there is something I need your help with." “

Fang's mother didn't dare to be, "If the girl has any requests, just mention them." “

Yun Xiu saw people coming and going, and leaned into Fang's mother's ear and whispered.

Back in the front yard, the lights were on in Ling Xiao's house and the door was open. But there was no one to be seen.

"Where's Master Hou?" She asked the attendant on duty, "Did you go out?" “

"Eighth girl, please sit in the room for a while," the attendant said politely, "Master Hou will be back in a while." “

As soon as the words fell, Ling Xiao's voice came from behind him: "What are you doing again?" “

Yun Xiu pointed to the food box in his hand, "Come and deliver food to Master Hou." “

As he spoke, he asked the girl to start making vegetables.

"Have you eaten it?" Ling Xiao asked as he wiped his hands after washing.

Yun Xiu shook his head: "I'll go back and eat later." “

"Together." Ling Xiao sat down first, and then looked at the empty seat beside him.

Yun Xiu owes favors to others, and it is difficult to excuse himself.

"There are a lot of tricks in the mayor's street," Ling Xiao seemed to unintentionally take out a delicate brocade box from his arms and pushed it in front of her, "The boss lady is gracious, it's useless for me to keep it, just give it to you." “

On weekdays, there is no one in his eyes, when does the high-flying and domineering Zhongyi Marquis understand the four words of hospitality, Yun Xiu looked at him suspiciously, opened the box, and a pair of ice ear bead rings, clear and transparent, like a pool of clear water.

Looking at Ling Xiao again, he unnaturally looked away and complained that the bamboo shoot soup was too light.

"Master Hou, is it good-looking?" Yun Xiu smiled and changed into earrings, approached and shook them, and the emerald green beads swayed with it.

Ling Xiao glanced at it and coughed lightly: "It's good-looking." “

Yun Xiu suddenly smiled: "Since Ming'er, I have been wearing this pair of earrings every day to accompany the Hou Ye to eat." “

She smiled flawlessly, but Ling Xiao always felt that it was different from when Chun Tao was there, and she couldn't say what was different.

After a meal, Yun Xiu tucked the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief after eating, got up to say goodbye, and did not forget to tell him when he left, "Master Hou should not be nervous if you hear any movement in the backyard tonight, but there is a rat infestation, once or twice a year." “

Ling Xiao is not a master who is easy to fool, and when she leaves, he called his entourage, "Be alert tonight, and report any movement at any time." “

The retinue was ordered to retreat.

Seeing the time when the lock was dropped, the little girls who closed the doors and bolted the doors of each courtyard were talking and laughing, and someone pushed the courtyard door vigorously open, led by Fang's mother, with a group of rough mothers-in-law poured in, and went straight to the next room to start turning over the cabinets.

Fang's mother stood in the courtyard and reported loudly to the main house: "The old lady is sick, the eighth girl did her filial piety to remove her bracelet, hit the right Ruyi, and lost it before she could send it out. “

Unclean hands and feet are a taboo, and the girls were frightened, and they were driven in the yard shivering, and they didn't dare to make a sound when they saw their things thrown out of the house.

After some rectification, I did find a lot of small objects that could not be seen, as well as silver coins and jewelry that could not be explained.

When he was approaching, Yun Xiu came to the courtyard of the firewood house and called out to Fang's mother.

Fang's mother immediately stepped forward and said respectfully: "It's so late, Miss Lao will come over in person." “

"Did you find the person who stole the thing?" She asked.

Fang's mother shook her head: "I have interrogated, and there are still seven or eight people who can't say clearly, and they are all locked up in the firewood room, or wait for the dawn girl to come and interrogate carefully." “

Yun Xiu said no: "Has my father informed me?" “

Yun Yushi is now burning his eyebrows, how can he be idle about the trivialities of the backyard.

Fang's mother said: "After informing, the master asked the girl to watch it." “

"Show me the roster of those guys." Yun Xiu waited for this sentence, and then asked, "What about Aunt Ding, why didn't she come?" “

Fang's mother asked someone to bring the booklet, and said, "The seventh girl has heart palpitations, and Aunt Ding personally went over to take care of her." “

Yun Xiu sighed, looked carefully by the light of the torch, and pointed at three young girls of the same age, and the other party's mother said: "Ask these three people, where were they on the day of Chun Tao's accident, and who testified?" “

Fang's mother hurriedly sent someone to ask, and with a stick of incense, she asked the result: "Girl, except for Cui'er, the other two have someone to testify." “

Yun Xiu listened to the unfamiliar name, "Which courtyard is Cui'er from?" “

Fang's mother: "It's in the little third master's house, the old lady means that the little third master studies hard, no matter how intimate Xiao Wu is, it's not as careful as the girl." “

Yun Xiu nodded: "Grandmother is always worried about the third brother, you call Cui'er first, and I will ask her personally." “

After a while, Cui'er was pushed to her knees in front of her.

"Girl, girl, slave maid is wronged!" Cui'er cried a handful of snot and tears.

Yun Xiu didn't hurry, and asked without a beginning or a tail: "Do you know Gongzi Xie?" “

These words stunned Cui'er. The mouth that was about to cry opened, closed it again, and nodded: "Gongzi Xie often accompanies the third master to read books, so naturally I have seen it." “

Yun Xiu then asked: "Mother Fang said that you accompanied the third brother to school that day, but there was no one to corroborate it, and Xiao Wu didn't know?" “

Cui'er shook her head: "That day, the little third master wanted to eat the pagoda cake of the long street, Xiao Wu left after lunch, and only the slave maid was waiting outside the school." “

Whether it's true or not, just ask Xiao Wu.

There was no discrepancy between the two confessions.

"It's your fault." Yun Xiu helped Cui'er up and asked someone to untie the rope, "You look very smart, you haven't been in the house for a long time." “

Cui'er hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Thank you, girl, thank you, girl!" “

Yun Xiu sent someone to send Cui'er away, and released the people detained in the firewood room, leaving Fang's mother alone to go to Huishoutang.

Fang's mother was puzzled: "Girl, where are you singing, Cui'er can't tell the source of the most money, just let it go?" “

Yun Xiu smiled and replied to the question: "Mom, Chun Tao is gone, it just so happens that there is a lack of a waiter around me, Cui'er is very eye-catching, I want to take her out for a walk and add two new clothes to her." “

Fang's mother became more and more confused: "The girl really wants Cui'er?" “

Yun Xiu snorted, and there was nothing else to say.

The next day, Cui'er followed Fang's mother to see Yun Xiu early in the morning.

"No polite words." Yun Xiu finished breakfast and asked someone to prepare the car, "There are ready-to-wear clothes in the house, but I don't like those colors, since you are serving in front of me, you naturally follow my temperament, it just happens that the day is going to be hot, you accompany me to make two summer clothes." “

all know that the eighth girl is the most favored by the old lady, and the people around her live less and have more money, which is when the spring peach is gone, how many people lack the vacant position.

Cui'er didn't expect the cake to hit her head, she was overjoyed, and happily accompanied Yunxiu out of the house.

Yun Xiu asked the coachman to go around and stopped at the bun shop near the school. deliberately asked Cui'er to buy two buns and come back.

When she went to the door of the tailor's shop, she wanted to eat a snack, so she took Cui'er away, and then asked the coachman: "What did the guy from the bun shop say?" “

The coachman replied honestly: "The man said that he didn't remember Cui'er's appearance, and he didn't dare to identify it at will." “

The trail is broken.

However, Yun Xiu is not in a hurry, according to the clues given by Zhongyi Hou, on the day of Chuntao's accident, it was a girl who took money to find passers-by to pass on the message to Xie Zongren, who could recognize people and have money to support them, and Cui'er said that she was the only one outside the school, didn't she not admit herself?

But Cui'er is an errand runner at most, and there are big fish behind her.

Yun Xiu silently asked Cui'er to follow her inseparably, and Ding Meisheng secretly observed for a few days, feeling more and more panicked.

She ignored Master Yun's warning, and secretly went out of the house to ask Aunt Xue to meet.

"What to do! What to do! Ding Meisheng was like frying in a frying pan, unable to sit still for a moment, going back and forth, "Mrs. Xue, why are you dumb this time, but you have a word!" “

"Say? Say what? Aunt Xue was also angry when she mentioned it, "Your eighth girl is really a skillful person, she scared my father so much that she didn't dare to go out of the door, and she is still suspicious to this day, and she always feels that someone in the family has harmed him!" “

Ding Meisheng was inexplicable: "Wasn't Xue Dong's family tied up by officers and soldiers?" The master was still implicated by him, and you still beat him up. “

"Officers and soldiers?" Aunt Xue sneered. "Your master Yun doesn't know, I don't know my father, Xue Mansion is rich, in the final analysis, it is a businessman, as the saying goes, people don't fight with officials, give my father a hundred dares and dare not offend the officials."

After a pause, he said: "Who knows what kind of ecstasy soup that fox Meizi poured into Hou Ye, so that he made crooked tricks to frame the Xue family." “

"Does she have the guts?" Ding Meisheng didn't believe it, "Let the master know that she is a ghost, you have to kill her!" “

"People have Hou Ye to protect you," Aunt Xue's eyes were full of sarcasm, "You are an old pearl yellow, and the eighth girl is smart, which master doesn't love you." “

Ding Meisheng hated people the most and said that she was old, so she slapped the table twice: "I can't say it to you, I can tell you, we are now grasshoppers on a rope, Cui'er is an eyelier who sees money, beware of her selling us." “

Aunt Xue didn't care: "What if she sells the two of us?" The eighth girl should be honest and peaceful, can she go to the teahouse to listen to books? If she doesn't go to the teahouse, can the Xie family find her? Will Chun Tao die? Besides, if a house slave dies and dies, it is nothing more than a few more funeral silver. “

"But what if the eighth girl doesn't follow?" Ding Meisheng said, "Otherwise, why did she ask Cui'er to her side, and she also took the lack of spring peach, maybe she would suspect us early, so she would wait to catch the evidence and sue the old lady and the old lady." “

"You're afraid that you'll be shaken out, and you won't be able to do the continuation." Aunt Xue saw through her mind and said impatiently, "In this case, you want Cui'er to shut up." “

Ding Meisheng didn't understand: "How do you shut up?" “

Aunt Xue felt that she lacked heart: "If people die, they will shut up!" “

Are you really going to kill Cui'er?

Ding Meisheng's heart trembled, sat in the carriage, and after being in a daze for a long time, she asked the mother-in-law next to her: "Do you think Mrs. Xue's method is feasible?" “

Mother-in-law don't stop the corners of her mouth, shake her head and say: "Auntie, Mrs. Xue's idea last time has already trapped you, if you listen to her again this time, in case you are discovered by the master, have you thought about the consequences?" “

"yes." Ding Meisheng murmured, "It's not a pity for me to die, but what about my Zixuan and Shu'er?" They are not eight girls, and they are definitely not treated well by old ladies. “

"The old lady is sick now, and the slave maid doesn't like what she says," the mother-in-law said, "Her old man is old, but the master's road is long, if you don't want to, the two bedrooms and three rooms are cheaper, I heard that the lord rested in Aunt Lin's house for two nights in a row, and even slept there for a nap." “

"And this?" Ding Mei suddenly came to her senses, "The stick in the second room can't make a fart, if she hadn't given birth to Yun Zimo, I'm afraid she would have been driven away by the master." “

"So my aunt will be more careful," the mother-in-law reminded, "You will be the stepwife of Yunfu in the future, and Brother Xuan and Sister Shu are still waiting to enter the family tree." “

These words entered Ding Meisheng's heart, "But I always feel that the eighth girl is not a good stubble, Cui'er is in her hands, and I can't even sleep well." “

"Cui'er is not a fool," the mother-in-law comforted, "what good is it for her to shake you out, now that she is serving in the house of eight girls, the monthly money has doubled, she is a sensible person, she should rot in her stomach that can't be said." “

The so-called understanding of the people who came over, the little girls can't think of it and can't listen to it.

Yun Xiu was playing by the window, Cui'er came in from the courtyard door with a food box, and the little girl who sprinkled the sweep saw it, and said crisply: "Yo, Sister Cui'er, the gold bracelet on your wrist is really beautiful, buy it newly." “

"Don't talk nonsense," Cui'er glanced at the window and said loudly deliberately, "My aunt came to the city to see me a while ago, knowing that I was working in Yunfu, and she specially sent it, so I was afraid that it would be too shabby and lose face." “

The little girl who sprinkled the sweep couldn't get used to her showing off her virtues, and said sarcastically: "My sister has such a rich aunt, why don't you go to your relatives, maybe someone else is serving you here." “

Cui'er blew her beard and glared and scolded: "If you talk nonsense, I won't tear your mouth apart!" “

After finishing speaking, he swept the food box in his hand and entered the house angrily.

"Girl, don't listen to their nonsense." Cui'er didn't have three hundred taels of silver here, and stretched out her wrist, "It's really from my aunt, you look at this color, it's a bargain at a glance, how can it be compared with the girl's." “

As she spoke, she looked enviously in the direction of the dresser, "The slave maid sees that you have a plum blossom hairpin or a new one, why don't you use it?" It's a shame that good things are just in the box. “

It was the hairpin that Zhongyi Hou gave her, Yun Xiu kept it, but she didn't expect Cui'er to turn over the jewelry box without authorization, and Chun Tao would never do it before, Yun Xiu squinted at her, and suddenly felt that this comparison was meaningless.

"Wear it tomorrow." She tugged at the corners of her mouth.

When combing her hair the next day, Cui'er really skillfully found the hairpin and put it on for Yun Xiu.

The old lady's improvement was not obvious, but fortunately she could feed the decoction, Yun Xiu waited carefully, until the doctor of Jiu'an Hall came to the follow-up consultation, and was received by Fang's mother, she left Huishoutang, and found a person to go to the front yard alone, bypassing the guest room of Zhongyi Hou, and going out of the hanging flower door.

"Eight girls, eight girls, I'm here." On the back wall of the gatehouse, Xiao Wu poked his head out and beckoned.

Yun Xiu followed the voice, took a small bottle, and said in a low voice: "Thank you for your hard work, no one will see it on the road." “

Xiao Wu shook his head again and again: "Don't worry, girl, there is a little third master to testify for the slave." “

After a pause, he said, "If the girl can avenge Chun Tao, the slave will repay you as a cow and a horse." “

Yun Xiu said that there was no need: "I know that you don't dare to confide in Chun Tao, but now that there are no people, you can't say it if you want to." “

Xiao Wu wiped his eyes with his sleeve: "The slave only hates not killing the one surnamed Xie!" “

"There's always a way." Yun Xiu smiled at him, "I'll go back, you can accompany the third brother to study." “

Xiao Wu saluted her.

After the two parted ways, Yun Xiu returned to his small courtyard and called Cui'er: "You go to Huishoutang to find Mother Fang to ask for a bowl of grandmother's medicine residue, I heard Aunt Ding say that there is a superstition in their hometown, and the patient wants to get better quickly, so he splashes the medicine residue on the ground, called medicine to get rid of the disease." “

Cui'er hadn't read a book and couldn't understand the eight girls' words. Again and again.

It didn't take long for the medicine residue to be brought, although it was said to ask for psychological comfort, but Yun Xiu was obviously in a much more cheerful mood, and poured a yard of medicine, so she turned around and went into the house to drink tea and eat snacks, and asked Cui'er to eat with her.

Cui'er doesn't know how to taste tea, just like a cow, after drinking a cup and adding another cup.

After eating and drinking, Yun Xiu put another snack into the food box and prepared to send it to the front yard, "Cui'er, you accompany me." “

Cui'er said yes. She had long wanted to see the honor of Marquis Zhongyi, and finally had a chance.

Ling Xiao didn't expect Yun Xiu to take the initiative to deliver refreshments, and only asked her to come into the house alone to talk, Cui'er stood at the gate of the courtyard, straightened her neck and didn't look at it, annoyed and frustrated, and when she was bored, she caught a glimpse of the strong and tall guard, and she was not ashamed to talk to people.

The other party ignored her, but she was not afraid, she chattered to herself for a while, and then as she spoke, her face became whiter and whiter, and her sweat was like rain. Falling down.

At the same time, Yun Xiu had the same symptoms, she fell from the chair and was stopped by Ling Xiao's hand.

"Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu?" He hugged her into his arms, probed the pulse on his neck, and shouted anxiously, "Someone! Come on! Go get a doctor! Be quick! “

Yun Xiu only felt that her intestines were about to be torn, and Chun Shang was penetrated by cold sweat, she clutched her abdomen tightly, and said angrily: "Hou, Hou Ye??" Save??"

She didn't have time to say the whole sentence, and a fishy sweetness suddenly welled up in her throat and eyes, and she couldn't help but spray it on Ling Xiao's shoulder, and the smoky blue jade brocade was suddenly dyed red.

Ling Xiao was completely frightened, and picked up the person and put him on the couch in a panic, and said without letting go, "Xiuxiu, Xiuxiu, you bear with me, the doctor will be there soon, immediately!" “

"It hurts??" Yun Xiu arched his body, his forehead against his chin, and spat out a word with all his might.

The roots of her nails began to turn purple, Ling Xiao narrowed her brows and asked puzzledly, "What did you eat, how could you be poisoned?" “

Yun Xiu shook his head slightly, so painful that he didn't even have the strength to speak.

Ling Xiao didn't care about asking the truth, and said loudly to the outside world: "Tea!" Mung bean soup! Who dares not to follow the formation on the spot! “

Mung bean soup has to be boiled, it is not convenient to make tea, and the entourage brought a bowl of thick tea, Ling Xiao tested the temperature, and poured it into Yun Xiu without burning his mouth.

After pouring two bowls of tea in a row, the doctor hurried to arrive, checked the pulse under Ling Xiao's cannibalistic gaze, and asked people to take the food they had eaten and sniffed it, and was shocked: "This! This! “

Ling Xiao roared: "What is this, this! Speak! “

The doctor was so frightened that his knees weakened, and he knelt down and said: "The girl has been hit by the eighteenth antithesis, this is a taboo in practicing medicine, and Gansui licorice cannot be eaten together." One word difference, mixed together will produce strong toxicity. “

Ling Xiao listened to the bullshit: "She's not sick, what kind of licorice does she eat!" “

"If you're not sick, you can't eat indiscriminately!" The doctor got up and trembled and began to prescribe a prescription, "Fortunately, the medicine is not strong, and there is not much to eat, otherwise Da Luo Immortal will not be able to save it." “

Ling Xiao's face turned slightly pale, and he listened to his entourage and said, "Master Hou, the girl who came with the eighth girl was also poisoned." “

The doctor immediately said: "If it is the same symptom, prescribe more side medicines, and then cooperate with detoxification diet therapy to empty the poison you have eaten, and you can walk on the ground after three days of rest." “

The medicine is prescribed. Take it down and boil it, and the cold mung bean soup becomes an antidote substitute, Ling Xiao took the trouble to feed it himself, until Yun Xiu vomited three times, and he couldn't vomit anything, he was weak and let go of his hand, tilted his head and fell asleep.

This night, Ling Xiao stayed in front of the couch and didn't close his eyes, Fang's mother came, and Yunzhidong also came, but they were all blocked out of the courtyard gate.

He had a hunch that once Yun Xiu handed it over, there would not be even bone residue left.

Yun Xiu is very thin, and he can feel the protruding shoulder blades through the clothes, probably because of poisoning, his eye sockets are sunken, his face is pale like a piece of wax paper, and his bloodless lips are blue, like a broken porcelain doll, and he can't feel a trace of vitality.

"Are you stupid?" Ling Xiao hugged her, his cheeks pressed against his cold lips, and said with pity, "I will listen to you from now on, I promise." “

Yun Xiu didn't react and let him hold him.

Ling Xiao didn't remember when he fell asleep, and when he woke up, his arm was half numb, and the person in his arms was still tightly closed.

He probed her snort, then felt the pulse on her neck, and his frown loosened slightly.

Finally everyone is fine.

In addition to being relieved, there was a slight sound outside the window, and then someone said: "Master Hou, that girl woke up and said that there was something important to report, and asked the girl and Master Hou to be the master." “

Ling Xiao was not surprised: "You ask what is going on, make a record, and sign and draw a pledge." “

Cui'er is a girl's body, a girl's life, grabbing the guard's trouser leg and crying, crying and saying that someone is trying to harm her.

At the end of the day, the confession was served on the table in the cloud cave with breakfast, and he read it quickly, and without waiting for Ding Meisheng to speak, he slapped her to the ground, scolded "poisonous woman", and brushed his sleeves away.
