Chapter 550: Mung Bean Cake
Meng Tianchu seemed to know something when he saw Xia Fengyi's appearance, and said, "Fengyi, do you know something?" ”
Xia Fengyi: "The ears are a minion, everything is good, but they are a little." ”
Meng Tianchu: "What have you heard or seen?" ”
Xia Fengyi: "I didn't see anything, but I heard some of them talking on the sidelines, and I heard that when I was molesting his little daughter in Liu County's house, I almost caught the government." ”
Meng Tianchu heard it and said, "Then why didn't I find these when I asked Jiayin to check the bottom of my ears?" ”
Xia Fengyi: "I'm afraid these are not easy to check, Liu Xiancheng only has to settle things later, I think I don't want to publicize the ugliness of the family." ”
Meng Tianchu thought for a while, got up and said, "Okay, I know, men are lustful, but at least they must have their own bottom line, and they can't do immoral and unethical things." ”
Feiyan covered her stomach, frowned, and said, "Tianchu, you go and do your job, Sister Fengyi is here to accompany me." ”
Meng Tianchu went out, let everyone disperse, only Yang Sanniang accompanied Feiyan, and then walked to the study alone, his ears obediently followed behind him, and he didn't dare to say much, until he met a subordinate at a small bridge, about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a round face, he was a little fat man, and when he saw Meng Tianchu and his ears, he quickly stopped, stood aside and stood bowed, with a respectful and humble smile on his face, and called the master softly.
Meng Tianchu also stopped and said, "I looked at you, are you new?" ”
The servant hurriedly replied: "The minion has been here for seven days. ^^5.2.0 Starter ^^"
Meng Tianchu: "Where do you do things?" ”
"The housekeeper said that if you don't know the rules for the first time, you have to go to the front yard for a month, and you know a little bit about any work. And then according to the level of understanding of what we do, we divide them into various yards. ”
Meng Tianchu knew that his ears were behind him, he didn't look back, and said to the subordinate: "Then are you still used to doing it?" ”
The subordinate smiled generously, revealing a mouthful of teeth that were not neat but still white, and said with a smile: "Hehe, master, this is ten million times better than at home, and the housekeeper is very good to us." We ate well. Dress well. ”
Meng Tianchu snorted and said, "Then let's do it well, by the way, don't tell you about gambling in the house?" ”
"Master, the housekeeper has said it several times, but no one listens. This time, the second lady told everyone in person. I don't think anyone would dare to do that anymore. ”
Meng Tianchu: "Okay, you go." ”
The subordinate passed sideways on the bridge, and Meng Tianchu saw the subordinate passing by the ear with his spare eyes, and nodded respectfully to the ear. The ear did not speak, only waved his hand gently. After the man walked away, Meng Tianchu said as he walked: "You stopped the one who was called Xiao Shudi just now, I have something to ask him." ”
After hearing this, he quickly asked the villain just now to turn around again, and when the little bolt approached, Meng Tianchu said, "Do you know Yuqin?" ”
Xiao Bolt first looked at his ears cautiously, and his ears said, "The master asked you something." \\\\\ see what I do? ”
Meng Tianchu smiled slightly. said: "I probably want to see if you let him speak." ”
Ear hurriedly leaned over and said, "Master, Ear will never be like this." Or do you want to avoid the ears for a while and wait for you at the arch? ”
Meng Tianchu: "No, you can listen to whatever I ask." ”
Xiao Shu then said: "I know, but I don't know each other very well, she came a few days before me, and now she is helping in the kitchen." ”
Meng Tianchu: "You know the housekeeper... Like Yuqin? After thinking about it, Meng Tianchu still used the word "like" and thought it was more appropriate.
Xiao Shuan bit his lip lightly, and was about to look at his ears, but his ears simply turned his back, Meng Tianchu wanted to laugh, but held back.
Seeing that the ear gave him a back, he didn't know what this housekeeper meant, and after a while, he whispered: "Master, don't ask me, you go and ask Sister Yuqin, I really don't know." ”
Meng Tianchu smiled and said, "Okay, it's not difficult for you, you can go." ”
Xiao Shuan left again, and Meng Tianchu said to his ears: "I can't see it, you are still quite authoritative in the minds of the subordinates." ”
Ear: "The minions don't dare." ”
Meng Tianchu walked forward with a smile and walked out of the arch, Meng Tianchu stopped, and hurriedly said, "Master, why don't you call someone to call Yuqin for you to ask?" ”
Meng Tianchu looked at his ears and said, "You go and shout." ===”
The ears were stunned, and said: "Master, I'll call, you won't be afraid of me..."
Meng Tianchu: "Am I afraid of you?" ”
The ears didn't dare to speak, and they didn't leave when they stood there, Meng Tianchu: "Why don't you go yet?" ”
The ear whispered, "It's better that I don't go, so as not to be confused." ”
Meng Tianchu: "Then when you forced people to follow you, why didn't you think that you had an indescribable day?" ”
Ears were blocked, Meng Tianchu waved his hand, and said, "I'm waiting for you in the study, you can go." ”
The ear was helpless, so he had to walk towards the front yard.
Meng Tianchu walked to his study alone, and before he arrived at the study, he saw Ear running in hurriedly through another small door, Meng Tianchu said: "So fast? ”
Ear pointed behind him, and said with a panicked expression: "Master... No... Oh no... Yuqin... Yuqin she..."
Meng Tianchu suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly said, "What's wrong?" ”
Ear: "Yuqin hanged!" ”
When Meng Tianchu heard this, he immediately said: "When is it, but it is less than a stick of incense before and after, how can it be?" What about people? ”
Ear: "Fortunately, when I went to the land, I was found and rescued by a maid who lived with her." ”
Meng Tianchu breathed a sigh of relief, nodded his forehead, and said, "Look at what you have done, let's go, let's go and see if the ear is beside Meng Tianchu** whispered: "Master, I really didn't persecute her, we were already in love with the Liu family three years ago, really, master." ”
Meng Tianchu ignored his ears, but walked quickly towards the next room.
The subordinate room of the Meng Mansion is some distance from the courtyard of the main land, and after passing through a long corridor, there is an artificial lake on one side. There are many lotus flowers blooming on the surface of the lake. There is also a pavilion in the center of the lake, the name is said: Wanxin, after the lake is a piece of Feiyan specially let people plant osmanthus trees and some fruit trees, the forest is about more than 200 pings, there is a sheep intestine path in the middle of the forest, and some small pebbles are paved on it. Some gardeners were hoeing grass in the forest, and when they saw Meng Tianchu and Er, they quickly got up and saluted.
Meng Tianchu rarely went in this direction. I didn't realize that there was still some time to walk on this road, so I said, "Ear, where did you come from just now, why are you so fast?" ”
The ear pointed in the other direction. Said: "There is a small door over there that was specially opened by the eldest lady after the slave came, in order to facilitate you and a few ladies to summon it. ”
Ear: "Then why don't we take shortcuts?" ”
Ear touched the back of his head and said, "Master, I see that you are angry, and I dare not say it." ”
Meng Tianchu hated to kick him, and said: "You shouldn't say it when you should say it, and you shouldn't talk nonsense when you shouldn't talk about it." ”
The ears did not dare to speak, but followed not far behind them until they reached an arch. I saw a maid running over in a hurry. He almost hit Meng Tianchu's body, and his ears shouted, "Damn it." Why are you so flustered and don't look at the road? ”
The maid hurriedly stopped, looked up and saw that it was Meng Tianchu, her face suddenly changed greatly, and she was about to kneel, Meng Tianchu said: "That's it, what is such a panic?" ”
"Sir, I... No, the slave went to find Lang Zhong, and Sister Yuqin suddenly convulsed and foamed at the mouth. ”
When Meng Tianchu heard this, he said, "Where is it, take me to see it." You hurry up and ask someone to talk about Miss Liu'er and Mr. Gongsun coming over. ”
The maid hurriedly pointed to the front and said, "It's in the house in front." ”
After a rockery, I saw a few rows of neatly repaired houses, some clothes and bedding were hung in front of the house, and soon came to a room, although the room was small, but it was very tidy, there was a vase on the table, and some small yellow flowers were inserted in the bottle collected from outside, and a faint fragrance could be smelled in the room, and it seemed that the owner of the house was still a very interesting person.
Meng Tianchu saw a woman lying on the bed convulsive, covering her stomach in pain, her face was pale, and there was already some white foam at the corners of her mouth that had not been wiped off, Meng Tianchu hurriedly said to the two maids who accompanied him on the ground: "Hurry up and find some clear water, put some salt in the clear water." ”
The two maids were already so frightened that they had no master, and before they could react, they looked anxious from the side of their ears and said, "Master, I'll go." After saying that, he went out, and one of the maids whispered: "I'll go out too, he won't want to return Sister Yuqin." After saying that, he followed.
Soon, the salt water was delivered, Meng Tianchu saw that the ear himself picked up the bowl and drank a big sip first, and then scooped a bowl to Meng Tianchu, Meng Tianchu understood the meaning of the ear, took the bowl, let the two maids help Yuqin up, and then broke her mouth open, and forcibly poured it into her mouth.
The ears looked very distressed, but he didn't dare to step forward to help, his hands rubbed vigorously, Meng Tianchu said coldly while pouring salt water on Yuqin: "Did you find anything uncomfortable with Yuqin before you came to call me?" ”
Ear: "I was at her door and I heard Osmanthus say that she hanged herself, and I saw her lying on the bed, and the two of them were also present at that time, so I didn't go into the house and turned around and went to call you." After speaking, Ear pointed to the two maids on the side, and the two maids also nodded quickly, indicating that Ear was not lying.
At this time, Zuo Jiayin and Mr. Gongsun came in, and when they saw this, they hurriedly stepped forward to help.
Meng Tianchu: "Jiayin, why are you here?" What about Liu'er? ”
Zuo Jiayin: "I am giving Xiaowei acupuncture and can't leave." After speaking, he took the bowl from Meng Tianchu's hand and asked Gongsun Ju to pour himself and hold the Yuqin that was still in a coma.
Meng Tianchu got up and walked to the two maids and said, "Did Yuqin eat anything before or after hanging herself?" ”
One of them thought for a moment and said, "After that, we didn't eat anything, we gave her water, but she didn't drink anything, she just cried vigorously, and after crying for a while, it became like this." ”
Zuo Jiayin: "Tianchu, I see that the symptoms of this maid are like poisoning." ”
Meng Tianchu: "That's right, it should be something you ate." After saying that, she searched the house, and another maid said: "By the way, when she was at breakfast before, she said that she was uncomfortable and didn't want to eat anything, and the housekeeper just..."
Meng Tianchu stopped looking for it and walked to the ear, and the ear hurriedly pleaded: "Master, I just got some mung bean cake for Yuqin, it was when the slave went to find the fourth lady in the morning, and it happened that the fourth lady said in the kitchen that she was greedy and wanted to eat, so she asked the kitchen to make some, so I rewarded the slave with some, and the slave was reluctant to eat it and gave it to Yuqin." ”
Zuo Jiayin: "What are you saying, do you mean that Feiyan is kind and has done something bad?" ”
Ear hurriedly said: "Third lady, the slave doesn't mean that, really." ”
Meng Tianchu: "That Yuqin was in addition to the mung bean cake you took from the third lady at that time?" ”
Ear: "There are four in total, she ate one and didn't eat, saying that she had no appetite I saw that she was not very good, and persuaded her to eat another one, she said that she would not eat anything, so I wrapped it in a handkerchief and let her eat it when she wanted to." ”
Meng Tianchu: "If it's really mung bean cake that has a problem... It's not good, hurry up and ask Feiyan if she has eaten"
Zuo Jiayin: "No need, at breakfast, everyone ate, not only Feiyan, a few of us ate, I also ate two." ”
Meng Tianchu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Startle me, it doesn't seem to be a problem with mung bean cake, so to speak, do you know what Yuqin has eaten or drunk in addition to eating that mung bean cake?" ”
The two maids thought for a moment and shook their heads.
