Chapter 50: The Truth
Su family courtyard.
"Ruyi, call Mama Su over." Banxia sat in the room.
"Yes, master." Retreat as you wish.
After a while, Mama Su came: "Madam." ”
Banxia poured a cup of tea and drank it slowly: "Where were you on an errand before?" ”
Mama Su did not hesitate: "Mrs. Hui, the slave maid was on an errand in Luofu before. ”
"Why was it sold by the Lord's family before?" Banxia was very direct, "I know Mama's personality, but don't say that I was caught by someone else because of stealing, I don't believe it." ”
Mama Su lowered her head: "The slave and maid are heartfelt to the master, and they didn't say it before, because they were afraid of causing trouble to the master's family." ”
"And now?" Banxia raised an eyebrow.
Mama Su was apprehensive in her heart, and said truthfully: "The slave maid used to be an errand in Luofu, and she first served in the Luo Lady's Courtyard. ”
Mama Su's thoughts gradually drifted away, and she returned to the time when she was on an errand in Luofu before: "Miss had an illness when she was very young, and after she recovered from her illness, she was very well-behaved and sensible, and she was also very sticky to Mrs. Mrs. took pity on her for losing her mother at a young age, and because she had no daughter, she took her under her name and recorded her as a concubine. ”
Banxia listened quietly.
Later, the lady transferred the slave maid to the snow courtyard to serve the young lady, but I don't know why, no matter what the slave and maid did, the young lady was not close to me. As the young lady grew up, she especially liked to make her own food, and the lady loved her, so she built a small kitchen in the snow courtyard for her to use. ”
Speaking of this, Mama Su shuddered: "When Miss doesn't like to cook, someone is watching from the side, and we are all far away... The slave was passing by by accident and accidentally saw it.
I was only ten years old at the time, such a small person, holding a little rabbit in my hand, the rabbit's mouth was pierced by her, her throat was bled by her, she was holding scissors in her hand, cutting the rabbit skin little by little, and then the ears, she... Gouging out the rabbit's eyes with his hands, blood soaked his palms and dripped to the ground. ”
When Mama Su said this, she took a deep breath: "Since then, I have been secretly observing Miss, and I found that she often tortures small animals in the kitchen, and then makes them into dishes for Madame to eat. ”
Banxia was puzzled: "So, this is the real reason why you were kicked out of the mansion?" ”
Mama Su shook her head: "Only the slave and maid know about this matter, the slave and maid have always been very careful and have never shown any clues, if it is because of this incident, the slave and maid are afraid that they will not be able to live now." ”
Banxia turned to ask Mrs. Luo: "How is she usually a person?" ”
"Compared with the average housewife, Mrs. Luo is already kind-hearted," Mama Su said, "Miss was raised in Mrs. Wang's name at the age of two, and eight years have passed, and the relationship between the two was already very deep at that time, and Miss was only ten years old at that time, and the slave maid had no evidence, just guessing, Mrs. would not believe it." Moreover, the slave and maid were afraid to say it, and they startled the snake. ”
"Then why on earth were you kicked out of the house?"
Mama Su said: "The slave maid accidentally saw the young lady drinking a bowl of medicine, which tasted very similar to the tocolytic medicine that Madame used to drink. After the young lady left, the slave quietly took the medicine residue and showed it to the doctor in the medical hall, and it was exactly what I expected.
Later, the young lady went to Guangyun Temple to stay for a while in the name of praying for the family, and the slave maid stayed in the snow courtyard, what happened in Guangyun Temple at that time, the slave maid didn't know, but after the young lady came back, her face was ruddy, and her belly didn't get bigger, and everything became the same as usual. ”
"She found out about this?"
Mama Su said: "Miss is just suspicious, and she is not sure who that person is, so in those years, there were not many people in the snow courtyard intermittently, some fell ill and died, some were punished for doing wrong things, and some were sold like me."
Because the slave maid had been on an errand in the lady's yard before, and had delivered the eldest young master, the lady took pity on me and just sold me far away. ”
Banxia rubbed his eyebrows: "Do you know about this?" ”
"Your Excellency asked the slave maid before."
"Let's go down."
Banxia sat in the room with a blank face until sunset.
Su Mu thought that Banxia was tired, so she didn't bother.
The steamed buns and rice balls are also exceptionally well-behaved today.
The "squeak" door opened.
Su Zhiyuan took off his cloak and stayed in the house for a while to warm himself up before walking to Banxia's side.
"The lady is not in a good mood today, but what happened to her?" Su Zhiyuan hugged Banxia and accidentally touched her hand, "Why is it so cold?" ”
"Mama Su told me everything."
Su Zhiyuan paused, thought slightly, and guessed: "Lady, what happened to the temple today?" ”
"Well, I accidentally bumped into Luo Xue and King Qi's good deeds," Banxia's face was a little solemn, "She already had some suspicions. ”
Su Zhiyuan hugged her: "It's okay, I'm here, everything has me." ”
Su Zhiyuan looked at Banxia and still frowned, and comforted: "She hasn't been around for long, the matter between her and King Qi has King Zhou's handwriting in it, let's watch it for the time being, and soon everything will be over." ”
That being said, on the second day, Su Zhiyuan bought a few strong men and took turns to stay in the small courtyard.
Ruyi also followed Banxia inch by inch.
Five or six days passed, and the wind and waves were calm.
All the intrigues seem to be pressed in one place, just waiting for the right moment to explode.
Finally......
"Master, Jiang Fu sent an invitation."
Mama Su looked at her worriedly: "Madame, do you want to go to the appointment?" ”
"Well, you can't hide from what you should dodge, and it's better to use means on the surface than to stumble in the dark."
The next day, Banxia went to the appointment on time.
Luo Xue's personal maid stood at the door early in the morning and waited.
"Mrs. Su," Peony Fushen, "the young lady asked the slave maid to wait for the lady here, please come with the slave maid." ”
"The tired girl leads the way."
Walking through the winding verandah, Peony led Banxia to the side hall, and the faint smell of smoke wafted in the air.
"Mrs. Su is here, please take a seat." Luo Xue was the only one in the side hall.
The two chatted for a while, and Luo Xue said, "My wife and I have a few words to say..."
After that, he consciously glanced at Ruyi.
Banxia lowered her head and chuckled: "I didn't expect Mrs. Jiang to be so speculative with me, Ruyi, go outside and wait for me." ”
Wishful thinking.
"What? Now I don't even listen to Mrs. Ben's words, is it only the prime minister who can call you! Banxia pretended to be angry, and the words he said were plausible, which made people think about it.
Luo Xue evoked a sarcastic smile and quickly faded away.
Taking advantage of Ruyi's retreat, Banxia picked up the teacup, covered it with wide sleeves, controlled the space with his mind, and took out an antidote pill and took it.
Watching Banxia drink tea, the smile on the corner of Luo Xue's mouth deepened.
The two chatted for a long time, testing each other, swords and swords.
Banxia got up: "Thank you for Mrs. Jiang's hospitality today, it's getting dark, I'll go back first." ”
Luo Xue sat on the upper seat and did not move, and said with a smile: "I asked my wife for a lot of parenting scriptures today, and I will have more contacts in the future." ”
