Chapter 8: Self-inflicted partiality

Life went on happily ever after. One day, when Eccentric and Careful passed by the kitchen, she saw that Benxin was busy inside, so she walked in curiously, smelled it, it was really fragrant, and she asked Benxin, "What is stewed in this pot?"

Stupid replied: "It's the black chicken and wild ginseng soup that Master Meixin ordered me to make."

"It seems that she will really enjoy it, and she will really have a mouthful, why don't I have it?" When it comes to Meixin, eccentricity grits its teeth fiercely. "Stupid heart, why does Meixin suddenly want to eat this?" Eccentricity then asked.

"The master said, black chicken and wild ginseng soup can nourish the skin and blood!" Dumb replied without thinking.

"Hey, look she's pretty good at maintenance!" Eccentricity sees Meixin holding a child every day and is happy and uneasy, as if flowing in happiness, in this regard, eccentricity is jealous and deformed, and his heart is angry and angry again. "Good! Let me help her make it up too. "Eccentric heart secretly more energetic, she is really good scar forgot the pain, a day without doing it will be uncomfortable.

At this time, she suddenly had a way to break the stupid heart in her heart, and only listened to her say in a commanding tone: "Stupid heart, look at your work is always a horse, you don't even know that the firewood is about to be extinguished, hurry up and go to the firewood room to get some dry firewood to add to the stove, and I will take care of it for you here." ”

The stupid heart didn't think much about it: "Then there is a master who is biased, so I'll go and get it." Stupid didn't dare to slack off, and turned away from the kitchen.

Eccentricity immediately followed out, and did not forget to look left and right, seeing that Stupid Heart had gone away, which made her very happy, only to see her say with a wicked smile: "It seems that my chance for revenge has come." Then he ordered carefully: "Lift the lid of the pot for me, and let me add some ingredients to Meixin." As he spoke, he put the itching medicine he had prepared into the black chicken soup, and then covered the pot.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Stupid Heart suddenly turned back to the kitchen, and immediately frightened both eccentricity and caution, and Caution threw the remaining medicine in the medicine bag into the stove in a hurry, wanting to "destroy the corpse and destroy the traces".

Seeing that the stupid heart returned in vain, he angrily reprimanded: "Be careful! I asked you to go get dry firewood, but I didn't expect you to return empty-handed, did you want to rebel? ”

Stupid Xin immediately defended: "Eccentric master, I suddenly thought that this soup was actually already cooked, and there was no need to add firewood, so I returned empty-handed." ”

Seeing that Stupid Heart did not break their conspiracy, Eccentricity had no choice but to push the boat down the river and said: "If it is cooked, you have to send it to Meixin immediately, so as not to taste bad if it is cold." I'm still going to do this, so I'll go first. Then and carefully left in a hurry.

Stupid replied: "Okay, follow the master's orders." ”

When Benxin brought the cooked chicken soup to Meixin, Meixin didn't take it directly and drink it, but instructed Benxin: "Recently, I always feel that my eccentric complexion is very bad, you can take this soup to her to drink, so that she can replenish her blood and qi well." Also, don't say that I asked you to send it, otherwise, she may not accept it, so let's just say that the master told you to make it for her in the kitchen. ”

When Benxin heard this, he was deeply moved and said: "Master, you are really a bodhisattva, and God will definitely bless you with a long life." ”

When Meixin heard this, she couldn't help but laugh and said: "Stupid heart, seeing that you are usually clumsy, I didn't expect that your mouth is so dexterous, and you know how to pat on the back." ”

Stupid replied seriously: "What I said is true, how can the master say that I am making sycophants?" ”

Meixin couldn't resist her, so she could only obey her wishes and said, "Okay, good, you're right." Hurry up and send me the soup, lest it get cold and it won't taste good. ”

Stupid obeyed the order, sent the soup to the eccentric side, and saw that the little one was waiting outside the door, so he brought the soup forward, and said, "This is the soup that the master ordered the kitchen to make for the eccentric master, and I brought it by the way." ”

As soon as I heard that the master called to send it, I didn't think much about it, let alone be suspicious, and after handing over the soup, I brought it directly into the room, and happily invited the merit to the eccentric: "Master, the master asked those slaves to make a bowl of soup for you, do you think you should drink it now or put it first?" ”

The eccentricity was tired of shopping just now, so I went back to the house and lay down on the bed to rest. When she heard that the soup was made for her by the master, she was very happy, and she was drinking it at this time! So, he replied: "I'll drink it while it's hot, we still have to get a piece of the master's heart." ”

Then, after serving the bowl, he drank it gurgling, and while drinking, he secretly snickered, and what came to his mind was: Meixin is desperately tickling! She could imagine Beauty's current miserable embarrassment.

After drinking the soup, Eccentric danced for her scheme, apparently, she got carried away. Because, it didn't take long for her to clearly feel that something was wrong with her body, she began to feel hot and a little paralyzed, and her hands unconsciously reached out to her face and scratched them, and then her body began to itch, and her hands had to be scratched everywhere, and then her whole body was extremely itchy. At this time, she scratched wherever she felt itchy, and her hands itched wherever she went, so that her hands were not enough. Eventually, she couldn't take it anymore and started yelling, "Help, help." ”

Anxin heard a shout not far away, thought something was happening, and hurried over. When I pushed the door and went in, I was immediately startled by the eccentric appearance, only to see that her whole body was swollen and unbearable, and I didn't dare to approach her. However, Anxin still reacted quickly, and instructed Zhongxin, who came with him, to say, "Zhongxin, hurry up and invite Dr. Renxin to me." ”

"Yes!" Faithfully commanded.

Seeing that it was a peace of mind, he said angrily while tickling: "It's all a good thing you did!" , are you trying to kill me? ”

Anxin was inexplicable and confused by her, and she didn't know what she was saying at all.

Seeing this, he pointed to the soup on the table and asked, "Isn't this the black chicken soup you ordered the kitchen to make for me?" That's what made me like this! ”

Anxin replied in surprise: "I didn't!" ”

"Then it must be Meixin who framed me in your name, poisoned the soup she stewed, and then pretended that you did it for me, and asked Stupid Heart to bring it to me to drink." Eccentric analysis.

When Anxin heard this, he immediately said angrily: "If there is such a thing, I will definitely not be able to get around her, you two, go, find me Meixin and stupidity." ”

Although the eccentricity is very uncomfortable on the surface, it is happy in the heart, so I don't complain anymore, just scratch the itch desperately. After a short time, the doctor came with benevolence, and as soon as he saw him enter the door, he pounced on him like a savior and knelt down, grabbed his hand and shouted, "Help! Doctor Benevolent, you must save me. ”

Seeing that she was doing such a big salute, Renxin was really a little unaccustomed, so he immediately helped her up, and after observing her condition for a while, Renxin concluded that it was the itching medicine that caused the trouble, so he calmly said to the eccentric: "Don't be nervous, in my opinion, you don't have a strange disease, this is a medicine that can be saved, don't worry, I'll give you some medicine to drink first, and it won't itch anymore!" "After speaking, he took out a few jars of medicine and scattered them, and prepared an antidote from them, and then took it to Anxin by the way."

After Anxin took the antidote, he ordered the caution beside him: "Be careful, take this quickly, mix it with boiling water, and then give it to the eccentric master to drink, in order to relieve its itchy poison." "Be careful.

Soon, he carefully brought the prepared antidote, and when he saw this, he couldn't wait to meet him, took the carefully brought antidote, and drank it. Sure enough, after a while, the medicine powder worked, and her eccentric body no longer itched, so she was able to calm down.

At this time, Meixin and Stupid Xin also heard the news and rushed over, and learned that Eccentricity became ill because she drank the chicken soup she stewed for her, so Meixin's heart has been uneasy, "Could it be that I did something bad with good intentions?" Meixin asked herself with some self-reproach, but even she couldn't figure out what was going on. When she saw the eccentricity, she was really shocked by the scene in front of her, it was simply unrecognizable! For this reason, she felt even more remorseful in her heart, because she had to bear a lot of responsibility for this.

Eccentricity saw that it was Meixin who came, and cried again, accusing: "Meixin, I have no grudge against you, why do you want to harm me?" Master, you must make the decision for me! ”

Meixin helplessly defended: "I didn't do it, master, you know me." ”

At this time, Anxin was also in a dilemma, and had to go to comfort the eccentricity and said: "Eccentricity! This is reassuring, I will definitely find out the real culprit behind this scene and punish him severely, but now you and I have no evidence to prove that it was Meixin who poisoned it, so you can't speculate. Now, tell me the ins and outs of the matter! ”

eccentricity cried while making a desolate appearance, and after listening to her story, he felt that things must not be as simple as eccentricity said. said to the eccentricity: "You can recuperate first, I'll go and help you find out the real culprit now, Meixin and stupidity, you both go out with me, just stay careful and take care of the eccentricity here." Everyone also retreated with peace of mind.

After exiting from the eccentric room, An Xin brought Meixin and Benxin to the kitchen where the incident occurred, and then after carefully observing the surrounding environment, he asked Benxin: "Benxin, tell me honestly, who has been in the kitchen when you stew soup?" ”

Stupid thought for a while, and replied truthfully: "Patriarch Qiyu, only eccentric masters and slaves have been careful to come. ”

"What did they do and what did they say here?" Anxin asked with some confusion.

Stupid Xin replied truthfully again: "As soon as the eccentric master entered the kitchen, he praised the black chicken soup for being very fragrant, and asked me who it was made for, and I said that it was made for the beautiful master, and she said that the beautiful master had a good mouth and she didn't." ”

"And did you ever leave the kitchen during this whole process?" Anxin then asked.

"Yes, Mrs. Eccentria said that there was no firewood, and asked me to go and get some dry firewood, and she said that she helped me watch, and I was embarrassed to refuse, so I went out to get firewood, but I soon came back, because the soup was already ready, and there was no need to add firewood." Stupid replied.

"And are they still there when you come back?" Anxin asked.

Stupid replied, "It's still there." ”

Anxin then asked, "Then have they ever touched that pot of soup?" ”

"I didn't see it, but when I got back to the kitchen, I found the eccentric master standing in front of the stove in a sneaky manner, and carefully threw something into the stove, probably to add firewood to me, and when they saw me come in, they left under the pretext that something was wrong. Actually, the soup was already cooked at that time, and there was no need to add firewood, so I put out all the flames in the stove. Then he brought the stewed soup to the master of Meixin, but the master instructed me to bring the soup to the eccentric master to drink, and asked me to borrow your name, saying that you asked us to make it for the eccentric master, so that she could easily accept it. In fact, the beautiful master is also a good intention, she saw the eccentric master's complexion, so she ordered us to make soup for her to drink, I didn't expect such a thing to happen now, I don't know why this happened, please check it! "Stupid told me everything from beginning to end.

"No wonder I said I wanted to frame her as soon as I entered the door, so it was. Stupid, you just mentioned that the eccentric master threw something into the stove, so can you see what it is? An An asked.

Stupid replied: "I really don't know about this, I think it should be firewood or something." ”

However, as the patriarch, Anxin had an extra heart, and immediately instructed the left and right: "Take the boiler off the stove and look for anything in the ashes that has not been burned." ”

Left and right had to be ordered, and as expected, the half of the packet of medicine that was still in the center had not been burned out due to lack of firepower, and was found out of the furnace by the left and right guards, and presented it to Anxin. After Anxin took the medicine bag, he took a closer look, but he didn't understand what it was, so he could only order the guard again: "Go, invite the benevolent doctor to me again." ”

Renxin was ordered to go again, and when he saw this, he said apologetically: "Doctor Renxin, I have to ask you to go one more time, come, help me identify what the yellow powder in this paper bag is?" ”

After Renxin took the medicine bag, he replied complimentarily: "It is my duty to live for the patriarch, and I will not give up!" I'm going to identify it now. ”

Then he looked at it carefully, sniffed and sniffed, and dipped his hand in some water and wiped the powder on the paper packet, and soon his fingers began to itch. At this point, Renxin has basically determined the properties of the powder. Then he turned to An An and replied, "Patriarch, this is Qi Qi San. The disease of eccentricity is also caused by the accidental ingestion of this substance. ”

Hearing this, Anxin could already understand the cause of the whole thing, so he ordered the loyal general to go and pass on the careful to come and see him. After seeing Anxin, she was obviously a little weak-hearted, but Anxin kept glaring at her angrily, which made her feel that the matter might have been exposed, and her heart couldn't help jumping up, and her legs and feet were a little weak.

At this time, Anxin pointed to the medicine bag presented by the guard and asked her, "Be careful, you can recognize this." ”

When I looked closely, it turned out to be the itchy medicine bag, which made my legs and feet tremble even more disobediently. Although a corner of the medicine bag had been burned, it was not burned to ashes. Careful begins to regret that she was careless in what she did and didn't leave after destroying the body. However, at this time, she still stubbornly said: "I don't recognize." ”

Seeing that she was not honest in confessing, Anxin shouted at her: "If you are conspicuous, you can honestly explain to me the truth of the matter, and I will spare you from death, and if you hide the truth again, I will immediately call you to see the king of Hades." ”

Be careful not to be biased as a backer, so frightened that she cried on the spot, her legs and feet fell to the ground with a weak heart, and finally, under strong psychological pressure, she had to recruit all the things that partiality made her poison and frame Meixin. After listening to Anxin, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and sighed: "It's really crooked on the upper beam and crooked on the lower beam, where are you!" Pull me out and beat me with twenty boards. As soon as the words fell, Caution cried even more fiercely, and he kowtowed and begged for mercy, but Anxin did not reduce her punishment because of this. In this way, he was carefully pulled out and beaten. Then, Anxin angrily threw his hands away and went straight to the eccentric room.

Seeing that the door was suddenly pushed open, the eccentricity was startled, and the anger in his heart was suppressed, and he said to the eccentricity with a fierce face: "You understand what you have done yourself, and you will kill yourself if you do too much injustice, but I didn't expect you to do something wrong and still hold a grudge, and what you didn't expect was that you didn't succeed in framing the blame, but you suffered by yourself, and ended up in an embarrassing end." Here, I solemnly warn you, if you don't restrain your jealousy and hatred, I'm afraid next time it will not be as simple as disfigurement. After saying that, Anxin left without looking back, and he didn't come back carefully, as if he understood something, and secretly sobbed with remorse.

Since then, eccentricity has really converged a lot, always cautious about things, and soft-spoken, for fear of making a mistake and making Anxin angry again. Since then, the family of the patriarch of Anxin has been relatively harmonious.
