Chapter 567: You Do Deserve to Die
This night, as usual, after dinner, she leaned on the big kang to watch Yuanyuan play with Guan'er turning the flower rope.
Guan'er has recently become obsessed with the game of rope flipping, a simple rope loop in the two of them pick and hook, between a flip and a support, change a variety of good-looking patterns, see Du Rongzhi can't help but bend her lips and smile, "Our sister Guan'er's little hands are really coincidental, some of them don't even know how to kiss their mothers!" ”
Wan'er pursed her lips embarrassedly, a pair of big eyes shining.
"Is that not it?" Mama An came in from outside, heard this, smiled and put the red lacquer square tray on the table, and handed it to Du Rongzhi with one of the hot milks, "I want the slave to say that Miss Sun is also six years old this year, so she should seriously invite an embroidery master to teach her sister's needlework girl red, so as not to waste these skillful hands." ”
Du Rongzhi glanced at her daughter, who was concentrating on turning the flower rope, stirred the soup spoon and smiled, "That's not busy...... The eldest young master said that it would not be too late to learn when my sister was a few years older and had a steady needle and thread. As soon as the words fell, I heard Mama An whisper in her ear, "The person has taken it...... It's locked up in the backyard. ”
Du Rongzhi turned her head, looked at her lightly, and said, "Got it." He waved her down.
Mama An blessed her body and silently withdrew.
On the other hand, the game between Guan'er and Yuanyuan had also ended, so Du Rongzhi handed her another cup of milk on the table, and said softly, "It's not hot anymore...... After drinking for a while, he went to sleep with Mama Gu. ”
Guan'er obediently answered yes, and obediently took the milk and drank it.
Du Rongzhi saw that her daughter's lips were stained with a faint layer of milk, and while wiping her with a handkerchief, she instructed, "I tried to be a little cold these nights, and I looked at my sister at night, don't kick the quilt and freeze again." ”
Mama Gu hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't worry, young lady, slaves and maids can be saved." ”
Du Rongzhi nodded and kissed her daughter's cheek, "Sister Guan had a good dream today." ”
Wan'er smiled softly, lay down and touched Du Rongzhi's slightly bulging lower abdomen, "Mother and brother also sleep well." ”
"Hmm. Let's all sleep well. Du Rongzhi smiled, "Let's take my sister down." ”
…………………………
The night of the past two days has really changed a little, and the wind blows on the body with a faint coolness.
The courtyard at the back was originally used for Fu Shi to "recuperate", and it has been idle since she moved from here. Later, the master and servant of the Fu family both died...... More and more people want to come near this place.
Shuangfu and Shuangxi were guarding outside, and when they saw her coming, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute.
Du Rongzhi motioned for them to get up, and said coldly, "Have you checked the things?" What poison is it? ”
Shuangfu hurriedly said, "Back to the young lady, what Gong Baochang's family put in the soup is not poison, but more like ...... More like a tonic. ”
Du Rongzhi thought that she had heard it wrong, and frowned, "Tonic? ”
Before Shuangfu could speak, Shuangxi, who had a more lively temperament, had already preemptively said, "It's like a tonic!" It's just that there are a few flavors in the tonic that are not quite right-once it exceeds the normal amount, it is very easy to induce a miscarriage in a woman! ”
Du Rongzhi was slightly stunned, gritted her teeth and smiled, "It's really well-intentioned......"
Mama An, who was interrogating people inside, heard the movement and walked out, and when she saw that the person who came was Du Rongzhi, she couldn't help frowning and reproached, "It's so late, why did the young lady go on this trip in person?" ”
Du Rongzhi waved her hand, "Can you confess?" ”
When she mentioned this, Mama An couldn't help but grit her teeth and said, "That prostitute has a very hard mouth...... They told us to grab our wrists, and they still refused to confess the master behind her. ”
Du Rongzhi was not surprised, and smiled coldly, "Mama can't be angry, I'll go in and see her." ”
"It's not going to be done." Mama An hurriedly stopped her, "It's very pickled in it...... Don't bump into you and Young Master Sun. Why don't you first-"
Du Rongzhi interrupted calmly, "I just want to hear what she has to say." She paused slightly, didn't know what to think of for a while, and called Yuan Yuan to whisper a few words.
The latter hurriedly responded, leaned over and quickly retreated.
Mama An knew that she couldn't stop Du Rongzhi, so she had to remind helplessly, "That Gong Baochang's family looks honest and honest, but in fact, he doesn't cry when he doesn't see the coffin...... The young lady will go in for a while, but don't get angry with her, you must take care of your body. ”
Du Rongzhi's expression was indifferent, "Don't worry, Mama, it's just a treacherous thing, and it's not worth making me angry." ”
"Hey, hey." Mama An responded and stepped forward to open the door for her.
Gong Baochang's family was pressed to the ground by two mothers-in-law who were five big and three thick, and the black and green on his face were mixed with mottled bloodstains, which looked particularly bloody and terrifying under the reflection of the candle flame.
When everyone saw her coming, they hurriedly called the young lady, and hurriedly moved the chair and asked her to sit down.
Du Rongzhi covered her nose lightly, until the disgusting smell of blood was a little used to it, then she looked at the dying servant woman on the ground, and said coldly, "What, still refuse to recruit?" ”
Gong Baochang's family crawled to Du Rongzhi's feet, struggling to grab the corner of her skirt, "Big ...... The young lady ......" but was grabbed by the hair by the stout mother-in-law behind her, and a big-eared scraper fanned over, "You black-hearted and rotten intestines, you dare to touch our young lady!" ”
Du Rongzhi raised her hand slightly, and the woman immediately understood, and immediately loosened Gong Baochang's hair and took a few steps back.
Only then did Du Rongzhi lean down, slowly lift Gong Baochang's chin, and wipe her face slowly with a handkerchief. Her hand ran over her red, swollen cheeks, bleeding wounds...... The pain, which had already begun to be numb, slowly revived with her movements......
Gong Baochang's family gritted their teeth in pain, only looked at her in horror, and didn't dare to move.
"You know what I want to hear." Du Rongzhi threw the handkerchief to Mama An on the side, and said slowly, "I have no grievances with you, and I have never treated you badly...... You don't have to hurt me at all. As long as you explain everything clearly today and tell the people behind the scenes...... I can spare you from dying. ”
Gong Baochang's eyes showed a trace of hesitation, but then he seemed to remember something, and kowtowed with tears, "It's all the slaves and maids who have lost their minds and betrayed the trust of the third lady and the young lady...... Slaves and maids should be damned! Slaves deserve death! As he spoke, his forehead slammed heavily on the ground, and the wound that had been somewhat dry was cracked open and blood gushed out.
"You really deserve to die...... But the people behind you are more damned than you. Du Rongzhi looked at the blood stains that flowed down her forehead, and laughed mockingly, "At this point today, do you really think that if you don't say anything, I won't be able to guess who your master is?" ”
