Chapter 32: The Tea (2)

When Ning Fu understood this, the whole person panicked, and grabbed Lan Yi's hand, "Miss, have you figured out something?" Did Madame be killed? But this doctor hasn't been questioned before, and he said that there is nothing abnormal! ”

Lan Yi was sad in his heart, but his words were very firm, "He must have lied." Originally, A-Niang's matter was just a suspicion in her heart, but now it is almost certain that she was killed by someone. If I don't check, no one will check, you go outside immediately to find a doctor, just say that I am not feeling well after returning from incense, I have to take a look. ”

After the doctor arrived, he first went through the motions, and after taking the pulse, he said that Lan Yi was just confused, and it was good to use some calming medicine, and when he was prescribing the prescription, Lan Yi asked very casually: "Recently, when I drink tea, I like to add some sun-dried osmanthus and peach blossoms, I don't know if there is any benefit?" ”

The doctor didn't need to think about it, and said directly: "If the eldest lady likes that taste, it is not impossible to drink it plainly, and peach blossoms nourish the face and osmanthus warm the stomach, which is good for the human body." ”

Lan Yi nodded, and asked again: "The pregnant woman, can she drink?" ”

The doctor shook his head again and again, "That can't be drunk, osmanthus invigorates blood stasis, peach blossoms can also invigorate blood, and peach blossoms drink for a long time, which will inevitably damage yin and blood vitality, these two things will have an impact on the fetus, although it will not directly lead to slippery fetal or dystocia, but pregnant women usually eat, drink and move around without paying attention, there will be other problems, and then together with peach blossom osmanthus, it has really become a major symptom, which is the result of both mother and child. ”

Lan Yi's hand slowly curled up, and his nails sank into the flesh of his palm, which could relieve the pain in his heart a little, it is said that this kind of thing is very shallow, it is something that can be seen in daily life, and it has been thoroughly studied in medical books, otherwise this doctor would not even want to blurt out these pharmacology, so why did her mother make such a mistake in the first place, and the doctor who was invited to treat her body on the name post, why didn't she remind her?

What's even more chilling is that after the mother died, the father asked someone to find out the reason, this tea with peach blossoms and osmanthus flowers, as if it disappeared out of thin air, and the diet used by the mother did not have these two kinds of flowers, so even Lan Yi didn't know what was put in the tea to have that taste, and it was not until today that he found out by chance. Maybe the whole courtyard ignored something at that time.

After the doctor left, Aunt Bai over there sent someone to ask why the eldest girl was not in good health again, and asked the doctor what he said, Lan Yi hated her to the bone at the moment, and she didn't have a good face, and said coldly: "Don't worry about Aunt Lao, let her ask her daughter how she offended the Mu family's housewife today." ”

When the words came back, Aunt Bai was stunned, she was busy with family affairs all day, but she ignored her daughter who came back from Tanyin Temple, and at this time she hurriedly urged someone to bring Pei Miaoqing over, and when she asked, Aunt Bai not only didn't feel that there was anything wrong, but became proud.

"Good girl, give your mother and me a long face, you should do this, don't offend people." She was full of praise, "Old Mrs. Ruan only likes you among the three girls, it is your ability, Mrs. Namu is nothing compared to the heavenly family, if she can please her and stuff you into the palace of King Qi, your mother and my waist will be straight." ”

Pei Miaoqing was in front of her mother, but she was too lazy to go around the bend, and said bluntly: "I want to please her all the time, but after all, I am a concubine, and I can only go in and out of that kind of place with my eldest sister, and see those people with noble status, auntie, if you can be the housewife and take me to various occasions, I am afraid that she will not really like her?" In the end, it's still you who can't do anything in front of Daddy these times. ”

Aunt Bai was poked and couldn't get up, and after a while, she said: "You don't know what your father's temperament is, he values feelings, and since the death of the original wife, he has no intention of adding a housewife to the Pei family." Besides, the dignitaries in Beijing have died of their wives, there are many continuations, and there are few concubines, your mother and I are not from a good background, and it is difficult to get to that position. ”

Pei Miaoqing was a little unhappy, "When I was just housekeeping, A-Niang didn't think like this, how confident you were at that time, but now it's all frustrating." ”

Aunt Bai frowned, and directly blocked the words, "It's not that I'm saying frustrating words, it's that over the years, I have gradually understood the status of your wife and daughter in your father's heart." It's you, if you're really angry, you don't need me to be good or not, and you'll marry into the Qi Palace. Do you think about whether you have a conscience in what you said just now, am I not good to you or what, eat and drink, are you a little worse than the big girl? Why don't you say that you want to think of a way to let the King of Qi accept you, and then my mother can become the housewife of Pei Mansion by virtue of her daughter's preciousness? ”

Pei Miaoqing saw that her mother was angry, and she also knew that she had said a little too much, so she hurriedly went up and hugged the coquettish, "I said the wrong thing, A-Niang, don't worry about me, I also want to enter the Qi Palace, I want A-Niang to live a life without looking at people's eyes, but isn't there no chance, if A-Niang has money, think about it, and create more opportunities for me, I will definitely be able to grasp it." ”

In the end, it is a good thing for both mother and daughter, Aunt Bai agreed at once, the housekeeper has been greedy for ink and silver for so many years, and Pei Gui does not know, at this moment, for the sake of her daughter's future, she decided to take out some of it, buy some gifts, and let people take it to the Ruan family to give it to Mrs. Ruan when the time comes.

The other side of the carriage was thinking about how to cling to the powerful, and the wind and lotus garden on this side were quietly busy on the surface, but in private, Lan Yi and Ning Fu spent three or four days together, and finally figured out the ins and outs.

After Feng Ying's death, Pei Gui was angry and sold many slaves in her yard, of course, Aunt Bai did not instigate at that time, always saying that these slaves were not served properly to cause the death of Mrs.

She was invited to the back corner door by Lan Yi, and no one saw it, so she asked a few words. The old mother recalled that the tea at that time was made by the little girl, when brewing, she would often stare at it, and did not see anything wrong at all, and after the lady drank it, she praised the sweetness of the tea, so she liked it very much, and gradually she relaxed her guard and stopped staring.

Later, the little girl who made tea was sold, and it was Aunt Bai who handled this at that time, and this person was nowhere to be found.

Lan Yi secretly thought, since the flowers were not thrown in when making tea, then the problem was either on the utensils or on the water, no matter which one it was, it was so hidden that it was difficult to find out, and with the passage of time, it was impossible to touch the truth, and the intentions of the people behind it were really sinister.

And Ning Fu took the name card to the pharmacy in the south of the city to look for someone, and the other party said that this doctor made a small fortune a few years ago, and now he has returned to his hometown.

Finally, there is still a little hope in front of him, Lan Yi knows that this doctor is very important, but he doesn't know who to send to chase him to his hometown, after all, Ning Fu is a personal maidservant, and she walks around the capital on weekdays, and it can be said that she is helping Lan Yi do things, if she doesn't show up for a long time, it should arouse suspicion everywhere.

Ning Fu came up with an idea, "It's better to tell the master about this, after the death of the lady, the master has not continued for a long time, and it is also very affectionate, if you know that there is another reason for the death of the lady, you will definitely investigate it." ”

Lan Yi shook his head, "Daddy is indeed a person with deep affection, but this love is deep and righteous, and it is often used on more than one person, Aunt Bai has children and daughters, and Daddy likes her, how could he taste tea for me, so he searched and chilled Aunt Bai's heart?" ”

Ning Fu lowered her head and said: "The slave maid is thinking, let the master have such a thing in his heart first, and the suspicion will increase more and more, Aunt Bai will definitely show the fox tail in the future, and then the new and old hatreds can be counted together." ”

"What else can there be a fox tail." Lan Yi smiled bitterly, "My marriage is certain, Aunt Bai doesn't need to do anything to me anymore, my brother also died, no one robbed her son of the family property, how could she still take the liberty of making a move?" ”

Ning Fu was very frustrated, sighed, and pouted thinking about what else could be done.

Lan Yi was also silently combing, knocking on the table with his hand, and muttering to himself, "When my mother gave birth, Aunt Bai was in charge of the front and back, and on the bright side, there must be no flaws, so my father was completely unsuspicious of her, and now we have no evidence in our hands, what do we use to testify?" What if Aunt Bai knew something and trampled the last clue to death? ”

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her, grabbed Ning Fu's hand, and asked, "His Royal Highness King Gong has now lived in the palace, right?" ”

"Yes, the big wedding is coming, and the palace has already been arranged. Miss, you won't want to ......."

"Get him for help." Lan Yi said decisively, "There will always be some little guys in the palace who can be moved, just run and bring people here, before bringing them to my father, I always have to ask everything clearly, if this matter in his mouth has nothing to do with Aunt Bai, there is no need to alarm my father." ”

Ning Fu immediately said "yes", although she didn't even know how to go to Prince Gong's Mansion at this time, she was willing to do it for the sake of her wife's life.

Lan Yi taught a few more words, and instructed Ning Fu to respect Wei Changjue and not talk nonsense in the palace.

Ning Fu responded, somewhat disappreciating in her heart, after all, King Gong is just a "plague god" in the hearts of most people, and he has a soft temperament, and his body is weak, Ning Fu naturally plans to face it with the bearing of Miss Pei's personal maid.

After such a calculation, two days later, Ning Fu finally got a chance and left Pei's mansion.

Asked for the way, rushed over, it was her luck, just in time to catch Wei Changjue in the mansion to see the layout, I heard that a little girl came outside, claiming to be from Pei's mansion, so he asked people to bring it in.
