Chapter 230: Discord (1)
Xinrui grabbed the hem of Ji Erlan's skirt like a driftwood in a sea of rage, begging desperately. However, Ji Erlan's gaze became more and more cold and unkind, what a black heart, to attack a child! If it weren't for Ji Rong's own vigilance, no one would have noticed that someone handed him a cup of honey water, and he might have been poisoned like the rabbit in front of him at this time. "Your conscience has been eaten by dogs?!"
"Second girl, the slave doesn't know that the contents of the honey water can poison people! Please believe the slave and give the slave a chance......" Xinrui saw that Ji Erlan's anger was unabated, and her words became more and more indifferent and ruthless, she stiffened her neck and struggled to look up at the girl above her head, and begged for mercy with a hoarse voice trembling.
Ji Erlan's voice was like a sharp knife condensed by ice and snow in the cold winter, and every word could scratch Xinrui's nerves, and she said, "Opportunity? What qualifications do you have to ask for a chance? Did you give my brother a chance when he drank poisoned water?! Do you know what happened to the subordinates who murdered their masters, and do you know what it was like for Ling Chi to die?! ”
Seeing that she was indifferent, Xinrui could only walk to the front of the Qin family, kowtow again and again, and justified: "Madame spare your life, how can the slave and maid harm the young master's life if you have no grievances and no enmity." The man told me that it was just an ordinary laxative medicine, but it was just to make the young master suffer a little. The slave really didn't know that thing could kill people! ”
The Qin clan squatted there and firmly hugged Ji Rong, looked at Xinrui with horror on his face, gritted his teeth and said, "You tell me clearly, who asked you to take the poison to Brother Rong to drink!" ”
Xinrui shook her head and said, "The slave doesn't know ...... She wore a hood, only knew that it was a woman, and when she took advantage of the slave maid to go home to visit her mother, she suddenly found the slave maid, and said that she had a holiday with her wife, and wanted you to suffer a little, so I asked me to put the laxative into the honey water for the young master to drink, and as long as I did it, I would give me ten taels of silver......"
"Ten taels of silver?!" Yuexi laughed angrily: "Ten taels of silver can let you harm people?!" ”
"Ten taels of silver is nothing to you, but for me, it can save my mother's life! Besides, if she gives too much, I can't trust the other party. It was because the person gave little that I felt that the other party really just wanted to find something unpleasant for the lady, so he agreed......"
Xinrui burst into tears, couldn't restrain herself, and kept kowtowing and begging the Qin family: "The slave and maid can't help it, the father of the family died early, the mother is seriously ill, and the younger brother still has to study, all pointing to the slave and the maid alone." If this were not the case, the slave would not have sold herself into the house to become a subordinate...... Beg Madame, for the sake of the young master's fineness, go around the slave maid...... The slave doesn't dare anymore......"
If on weekdays, the Qin family would have relented, but when it came to her child, how could she forgive it easily, at this time, she only frowned and looked at Xinrui hatefully, and didn't speak with a cold face, she almost lost Brother Rong'er!
Yue Xi said on the side: "Even if you just give the young master some diarrheal medicine, it's not something that a good person can do." You have the guts, why don't you come and ask Madame for help. At the end of the day, you're just greedy by nature and want to get something for nothing! ”
"That's right, human nature is always hard to change." Ji Erlan sneered, looked at her and said coldly: "If you don't want to suffer, you want others to suffer, what is the reason?" Does the weak have the right to harm others at will in exchange for benefits? ”
Xinrui stared at her with wide eyes in despair, speechless.
The Qin family was terrified, staring at Xinrui tightly, for fear that she would jump up and do something to hurt Ji Rong. She said, "Unforgivable! There can be no forgiveness! Erlan, you killed her! You help me kill her! ”
Ji Erlan didn't intend to spare Xinrui, but she didn't expect the Qin family to say this, so she couldn't help but look back at her, and her breath was blocked in her throat. Yue Xi was also a little stunned on the side, Qin's words, no matter how they sounded, didn't sound like what a mother could say to her daughter, she actually instructed Ji Erlan to kill people, and she was so arrogant.
Ji Rong pushed away Qin's arm and said, "What are you talking about?" How can A-Niang let her sister kill someone?! "Although Ji Erlan has not killed anyone, but the Qin family's requirements are also excessive, how can a mother let her daughter kill someone? This situation seems to use her as a tool to kill people and vent their anger.
Qin's gaze at Shang Ji Erlan was very embarrassed, and she whispered: "Erlan can't help it, it's A-Niang who is too scared." ”
was afraid that the other party would hurt his son, so he piled his adopted daughter out to deal with it.
The more Ji Rong listened, the more he felt that it was not a taste, walked to Ji Erlan's side, pulled her sleeve, and said: "Sister, this maid will be handed over to the yamen to deal with, as for who bought the murderer, the possibility of finding out is not great, the other party has already prepared, where can it be easy to appear again?" I'll just be more careful in the future. ”
"Brother Rong, why are you so ignorant. You are still so young, no matter how careful you are, you can't stand the calculations of others! The Qin family couldn't care about anything else at this time, and said: "Er Lan, A-Niang knows your ability, you help A-Niang, you must find out the person who bought the murderer!" Otherwise, it is really difficult for A-Niang to be at peace in her heart. ”
Ji Rong was a little helpless, no wonder my sister has become more and more estranged with A-Niang recently. A-Niang's appearance, where does it seem that she really cares about her sister. He said: "Ah Niang, the other party is in the dark and we are in the light, I don't know if there will be any plans, are you afraid that your son is in danger, aren't you afraid that your sister is in danger?" ”
Qin's face turned red because he was embarrassed by what he said. Muttered, "I, I didn't mean that. ”
Ji Erlan suddenly said loudly: "I will find the murderer." ”
Qin Shi was stunned, opened his mouth but didn't know what to say. Ji Erlan didn't look at the Qin family, only looked at Xinrui's head, and said lightly: "Moon breath, bring Xinrui back to the empty mountain and interrogate carefully." ”
"Yes, girl." Yuexi glanced at the Qin family, and his heart was not angry, so that his face showed some light. The Qin family was a little annoyed when she saw the shame, she was actually looked at like this by a servant girl!
Waiting for Ji Erlan to leave, Ji Rong pulled the Qin family back to the inner room and asked, "A-Niang, tell your son about the time that your son is not at home." What's wrong with you and your sister? ”
Qin saw that Ji Rong's face was not good-looking, but he couldn't explain it. How could she tell a ten-year-old child about the things between herself and Ji Chenglin? She hesitated: "You are still young, there are some things you don't understand." Besides, your second sister is not my biological son, and she is always different from her own mother and daughter. ”
"What's the difference? The second sister will never be estranged from A-Niang because of this, it must be A-Niang who has done something to make her sister sad. Just like Fang Cai, how can you let your sister kill someone? Ji Rong still felt incredible, and his little face was full of incomprehension.
Qin frowned and said, "You are bent on saying that she is good, but what is wrong with Ah Niang?" She turned her head to look away and said, "Besides, it's not like she hasn't killed anyone outside!" At that time, the Yan family made a mess in the law field, and many people in Beijing saw it with their own eyes. Even now, the ladies and nobles of the various provinces in Beijing are trembling when they mention her, for fear of provoking the evil star, and making A-Niang have no face outside. ”
Ji Rongqi's little face turned pale, turned around and walked out, and said, "My son is going to see my sister, think about it yourself." ”
Seeing Ji Rong go out with a calm face, Qin's heart slammed fiercely! What's wrong with her? She didn't know what was wrong with her! Why do they all accuse her? A servant girl dares to give her a look, and now even her own son is full of her no!
Pin Lan saw Ji Rong go out, and cautiously came in to report: "Madam, the eldest girl heard that something happened here, come and take a look, this will be waiting outside." Why don't the slaves send the big girl back? ”
Qin Shi first nodded, then quickly shook his head and said, "Let her in." ”
She is now finally rebuilding with Ji Chenglin, and she must maintain all parts of the inner house, even if she doesn't like Ji Tianjiao's sisters, she must try to be as thoughtful as possible. Qin sighed secretly, who can understand and understand her difficulties?
Ji Tianjiao was wearing a lake-green long skirt and a goose yellow shawl between her arms, looking very fresh and lovely. She slowly approached the room and saluted honestly, "Mother." ”
Seeing that Ji Tianjiao was wearing a dress that she had found someone to tailor for her, Qin was very satisfied and said, "This body is really very good for you." ”
Ji Tianjiao smiled: "Thank you mother for bothering for Tianjiao." She looked at Qin's face and asked, "Mother, is Brother Rong okay?" ”
Qin's expression was sluggish, he shook his head, and said, "Fortunately, Brother Rong is vigilant, otherwise, it will kill me......" She stroked her chest, obviously terrified. Ji Tianjiao was puzzled: "Who is it?" Who wants to hurt Brother Rong? ”
"I don't know, that Xinrui is unknown, and she can't say one, two, or three at all, she only knows that it's a woman."
Ji Tianjiao rolled his eyebrows and said, "Mother, Tianjiao has a saying, I don't know if I should say it or not......
Qin was a little strange and asked, "What's the matter?" That's it. ”
Ji Tianjiao bit her lip and hesitated, but the Qin clan urged her again and again before she spoke: "Mother, our family, don't say that you have never offended anyone. Even if you don't see it right, it won't lead to death. Who could have such a vendetta against you against a ten-year-old? ”
Qin Shi looked at her, his face gradually became unpleasant, and said, "What do you mean, the person who bought the murderer behind his back didn't actually come for me?" ”
Ji Tianjiao bit her lip and whispered: "Mother, I'm not saying that the second sister and sister are bad, but she is a girl's family, and she doesn't know what to do all day long." If you want to say that you want to cause trouble, it's only the second sister...... What happened this time? Could it be the second sister's revenge? ”
Qin Shi chuckled in his heart, and said uneasily: "It shouldn't be...... If she has a vendetta, others will naturally deal with her......"
Ji Tianjiao had a complicated look of 'you think too simple', and said: "The second sister is not easy to mess with, where is it easy to deal with, mother, aren't people all picking soft persimmons?" ”
