Chapter 6 Disposing of Qiao'er
Lu Jingzhu felt strange, where is the domineering eldest sister in the mourning hall, now that she is so docile, is it really afraid of her mother? But think about it, the position of the eldest lady of the Lu family will have to sit on it sooner or later, and she will be Miss Yan at that time. Lu Guanlan now has no backer as his mother-in-law, if he wants to stay well in the Lu family, how can he survive if he is disobedient.
Thinking of this, Lu's steps were much lighter. Thinking of the position of his daughter-in-law in the future, and then thinking of Lu Guanlan's appearance being ruined, his mood was much better.
Seeing that her master was in a good mood, Ping'er couldn't help but be a little happy, and suddenly remembered that Qiao'er was called by her aunt last night and has not returned, thinking about whether to report to Miss, and finally thinking about not disturbing Miss's interest.
In the peach orchard, Lu Guanlan was drinking tea, and saw Xiaoju running from outside the yard, saying that Mama Zhang called many family members to go to Aunt Song's yard, as if she had brought someone out.
Lu Guanlan was not surprised, handed the teacup to Xiao Ju and let Xiao Ju taste it. Xiaoju happily took it and took a big gulp of it and said it was delicious. At this time, Ah Li also came back and quipped: "Where can Xiaoju, a stupid girl, taste tea, and waste Miss's craftsmanship for her." โ
The two frolicked with each other, and Ah Li asked Xiaoju to go down to decoction.
"Miss, the slave maid went to Kang'an Hall, and found the old doctor there to test the ointment, and the ointment is fine," Ah Li whispered in her ear.
Her brows furrowed slightly, okay? After pondering for a moment, he said, "After lunch, you will bring the prescription again." โ
Ah Li's head said yes. He also said that when he came back from the back door, he saw the family there, as if he was dragging someone.
Lu Guanlan's frowning brows stretched a little, and a smile curled up on his lips, "Song Yuemei is a smart person, whether others have fallen into her trap may not be aware of it, of course they will know that there is an unfaithful slave in their daughter's yard." โ
Ah Li exclaimed in a low voice, "Miss is talking about-Qiao'er?" โ
Lu Guanlan was silent. She asked Ah Li to deliberately go to Qiao'er that day, and it was outside Lu Jingzhu's ink garden, and it was known as soon as this matter was investigated, and others would always see it. Song Yuemei naturally knew what was going on with the rash on her daughter's face, and sooner or later she would find out about it, thinking that Qiao'er had a relationship with their Taoyuan, and now she was letting people know with great fanfare, and she should have done it for her.
She was happy to see this situation, thinking that Song Yuemei was smart, if she knew that she was borrowed a knife to kill someone, would she be so angry that she would show her true colors.
In the Nixuan Pavilion, Song Yuemei seemed to be still angry, and when she saw Chunxiang coming back, she smashed a cup of tea.
Chunxiang hurriedly knelt down, "Auntie, don't be angry, I'm angry and my body is not suitable." โ
Song Yuemei sneered, without the slightest appearance of charity in the past, "Liu Yun'an really raised a good daughter." โ
Chunxiang glanced at the girls beside her, several girls hurriedly stepped forward to clean up the broken porcelain on the ground, Chunxiang stood up from the ground, and poured a new cup of tea for Song Yuemei and handed it over.
"This cheap girl is not small, she dares to hit Jingzhu with her idea," she said, and asked Chunxiang again, "Does Jingzhu send something?" โ
Chunxiang lowered her head slightly, "Send it, Fang'er talked back and forth, saying that it had been used." โ
Song Yuemei's face was ruthless, "Okay, let this cheap girl have a bad face first, and see what crooked thoughts she dares to make." โ
Chunxiang seemed to have some concerns, and couldn't help but say: "The slave maid feels that the eldest lady's temperament is a little different, are we ยทยทยทยทยทยท?"
Song Yuemei was disdainful when she heard this, "She is a yellow-haired girl who is not up to the mark, but without her mother, she has revealed her former cheap nature, if she loses the position of this concubine, what ability does she have to fight with my Jingzhu?" โ
Chunxiang wanted to say something, but when she saw Song Yuemei waving her hand to ask her to retreat, she had to keep silent.
Out of the inner room, Haruka asked Fang'er to go to the ward, so that Fang'er kept an eye on the eldest lady all the time, and if there was anything unusual, she had to report it to her immediately. I thought of the situation when I saw the eldest lady that day, and thought of the eldest lady's perceptive eyes, and I was stunned, and added: "Be more careful, don't let the eldest lady notice." โ
Dacheng has no matter of disposing of slaves at will, and a big family like the Lu family is no exception, but how many secret things are within the courtyard walls, everyone will find a reason, and it will be good to spread it.
No, as soon as Lu Guanlan took a nap and rested, he heard Mama Zhang from outside the door to report that Qiao'er in the yard of the second lady had committed an accident, so he called a few boards and asked him to go out and sell it.
As soon as Mama Zhang left, Xiao Ju rushed in, with uncontrollable joy on her face, "Miss, that Qiao'er bullied the slave maid before, and now it can be regarded as retribution." โ
Ah Li hurriedly made a silent gesture and said in a low voice: "Miss has just rested, you can stop a little." โ
"Xiaoju, you let Fang'er accompany you to decoction medicine," Lu Guanlan commanded softly in the bed.
Xiao Ju answered and ran away happily again.
Ah Li shook her head, "This girl is like this." Miss, the slave will go out first. With that, he closed the door lightly.
was just quarreled with Mama Zhang, and Lu Guanlan lost his sleepiness.
In her previous life, Qiao'er bullied Ali Xiaoju, she still remembered that there was not enough charcoal in the house in winter, and the charcoal that Xiaoju took was snatched by Qiao'er halfway, and Xiaoju came back and cried, saying that she was beaten. At that time, looking at the bruises on Xiaoju's face, she was powerless as a disadvantaged Miss Yan, so she had to beg Song Yuemei the next day.
She still remembers the day she stepped into the Nixuan Pavilion, which was as warm as spring, very different from her ice cellar-like room. She humbly and embarrassedly begged Song Yuemei to send some charcoal fire to her house, Song Yuemei smiled kindly, but said: "The rules are the same in each courtyard, why doesn't the eldest lady have it?" Could it be that the eldest lady is more special, and she wants more than the people next to her? โ
She defended that she was robbed, and Song Yuemei said with a smile: "You are the eldest lady of the Lu family, how could someone rob the charcoal fire in your house, it must be a lie." At that time, she blamed herself for being too stupid and misleading her aunt.
It was also that year that she had sores on her hands, feet and feet, but Lu Jingzhu asked her to embroider on the grounds that the new jacket needed a pattern. Her hands were so cold that she couldn't hold the needle, and her hands were full of holes, but she still looked at it, as long as her sister was happy, Aunt Song would be better to her.
Ridiculous, ridiculous. There is no misunderstanding in this world, and there is no revenge with virtue. The people who bullied her one by one in her previous life, she will definitely repay it in this life.
Towards dinner, Ali returned. Ah Li was careful and thoughtful, and when Lu Guanlan finished eating, he asked Xiaoju to bring the decocted medicine to the room.
Lu Guanlan poured the medicine into the gong bucket, turned his head and asked Ah Li, "What's wrong?" โ
Ah Li took out the prescription and ointment in her arms, "The doctor said that the prescription is not different, and there is no problem with the ointment, but - if the medicine in this prescription and the medicine in the ointment are used at the same time, they will cancel each other out, so that it will be difficult to heal for a long time, and if it is used to treat red rashes, it will become pus and scab if it is not cured for a long time, and it will be difficult to heal again." โ
Lu Guanlan couldn't help laughing, Song Yuemei was really careful, and she would also use such means to deal with her little yellow-haired girl. Yes, there is no problem with the prescription, and there is no problem with the ointment sent, if you check it, no one will think of checking these two things together. There is nothing abnormal in the single investigation, who can suspect her Song Yuemei, but she is kind and dedicated to treating Miss Yan, but the sky is unsatisfactory, it should be her Lu Guanlan who is unlucky.
Lu Guanlan sighed, raised his eyes and asked, "What about Fang'er?" โ
Ah Li said, "Tell Xiao Ju to call the yard." โ
"Call her in, from now on, you don't have to clean the yard, come to the back room to serve," Lu Guanlan's eyes became indifferent again.
Ah Li hesitated a little, "That Fang'er is Aunt Song's person, is it inappropriate to call the inner room to serve." โ
She shook her head, "If you don't throw some bait, how can the fish take the bait, it's time to deal with it." โ
Ah Li was surprised, and turned to go down.
Fang'er didn't expect that she would be suddenly called to the back room by the young lady. Hurriedly threw down the broom, wiped the skirt on his waist with both hands, and was about to go in to serve the young lady.
Seeing this, Ah Li frowned, after all, she was a rough girl, so she said: "Go and clean up and report to Miss, don't defile Miss's boudoir." โ
Fang'er hurriedly retreated and cleaned up. At this time, Xiaoju came up and asked Miss why she was so kind to Fang'er all of a sudden. Ah Li knocked on her head, "Don't care, just keep an eye on Fang'er more on weekdays." โ
Xiao Ju pouted and nodded.
Originally, Ah Li still felt that Xiao Ju was not suitable for doing things, but the young lady said that it was Xiao Ju's temperament, and it was not strange to do anything, and it was most appropriate for her to stare at people. Now that I think about it, who in this courtyard doesn't know what kind of character Xiao Ju is, if not, how can Aunt Song believe Xiao Ju's words.
Another month has passed, spring has begun, the rash on Lu Guanlan's face is not good, and Lu Bingyan has not come to visit his daughter once.
Lu Bingyan's meaning is very clear, he wants to give up her as a concubine. But if the Lu family does not have a concubine, no one will be able to pave the way for his official road in the future, so now Lu Bingyan must want to let the Lu family have another concubine, and the candidate is naturally Lu Jingzhu. Lu Guanlan thought, she seemed to understand why Song Yuemei wanted to disfigure her. Only if Lu Bingyan gave up on her, Lu Jingzhu had a chance, and Song Yuemei could naturally sit in the position of the eldest lady.
In the previous life, the Taoist priest criticized his mother as an ominous person, and the Lu family ignored the tradition of filial piety and quickly helped Song Yuemei. In this life, she bumped into Lu Bingyan in the mourning hall, so that Lu Bingyan had to take into account the rumors, and the Lu family naturally had to take into account the period of filial piety.
Because of this, Lu Bingyan is afraid that he has a terrible headache now, and in the memory of his previous life, the Lu family will discuss their marriage after the ceremony. It was also at that time that she was promised to be married to Naruno. In this life, when he was still in the filial piety period, how could Lu Bingyan not worry.
Just after lunch, Mama Zhang came to ask the ladies to eat together in the dining hall in the evening.
Lu Guanlan raised his eyebrows slightly, it seems that Lu Bingyan has something to say today.
