Chapter 16: Punish the culprit at night
Murong Fei's eyes flickered, avoiding the important and light, looking extremely innocent.
Murong Xi pointed to the kneeling red flower at the door: "Fei'er, the kneeling maid, can you see it?" ”
Murong Fei looked down and pretended not to know: "She...... Who is it? ”
In fact, she had seen it a long time ago, and if she hadn't seen it, she would have stepped on it when she entered the door.
Honghua raised her head suddenly, threw herself forward, and hugged Murong Fei's thighs with both hands: "Miss Fei, can't you not know me, have you forgotten that you gave me a packet of medicinal powder, and asked me to stand behind the young lady to serve during the family banquet, and find a chance to put it in her soup?" Miss Fei, you said that it was a tonic......"
Murong Fei was hugged tightly by Honghua, and she couldn't break free, she just felt that her skirt was going to be ripped off by this girl. At the moment, he slapped him with a backhand: "Dead girl, how have I ever seen you, don't frame me!" ”
Honghua was beaten by her and sat on the ground, very aggrieved, covering her cheeks and crying.
The old lady sighed deeply: "Fei'er, the safflower has been called many times in my yard, and I can recognize it as an old dizzy person, why don't you often come over to accompany me now, but you can't recognize her?" ”
The soles of Murong Fei's feet shook, his eyes quickly turned dozens of times, and said, "This is ...... Safflower? Why do you cry like this? Granddaughter's clumsy ...... For a while...... I didn't recognize ...... for a while."
Murong Xi disdained to watch this little cousin's wonderful acting skills, and went straight to the point: "Fei'er, your conscience has nothing to do with you, why do you want to poison her?" ”
"I ......"
Murong Fei's eyes were red, and she didn't dare to look directly into Murong Xi's eyes, so she turned her body to the old lady, and asked with tears in her eyes: "Grandma, do you also believe in this girl's nonsense, don't you believe your granddaughter?" ”
The old lady sighed and said nothing.
Murong Xi threw a piece of paper with creases at her feet: "Fei'er, if you really have nothing to do with this matter, why is the crimson Kodan dyed on this piece of paper used to wrap Jinzhong pollen exactly the same as the one on your fingernails?" I suppose you just dyed your nails when you stuffed the powder into the safflower. ”
The maids in the Hou Mansion don't dye their nails, and the old lady and Mrs. Pang are old, so they can't use this brightly colored Kodan. Zhang Wenxin wandered around like a tomboy day by day, and he never thought about taking care of his nails.
is full of calculations, and Murong Fei is the only one who uses this color of Kodan.
The matter was completely revealed, and Murong Fei saw that the old lady had no intention of speaking for her, and suddenly her eyes blinked, and two lines of rain and tears rolled down her cheeks, and she threw herself at the old lady's feet, and pleaded repeatedly: "Grandma, Fei'er has no intention of harming people...... Phil is just ...... Fei'er really thought it was a tonic and wanted to replenish the young lady's body...... It's all ...... It's all the Lang Zhong who sells medicine who deceived Fei'er...... Grandma, you have to believe Fei'er......"
Murong Xi looked indifferent, and then asked, "Who is the surname of Lang Zhong who sells medicine, and where does his family live?" ”
Murong Fei was also in a hurry: "This ...... I met Fei'er on the street, bought him a packet of powder, and I left. Where do you know what people's surnames are called......"
"How tall is that guy? Fat and skinny geometry? How do you dress? What does it look like? ”
Murong Fei's eyes rolled wildly, knowing that Murong Xi was a difficult character to mess with, so he avoided the important and spent his thoughts on the old lady: "Grandma, Fei'er is so afraid, you punish me, you punish me severely." Fei'er only begged her grandmother to understand that Fei'er was really kind-hearted, but she just fell for the gangsters......"
The old lady sighed and stroked Murong Fei's hair lovingly.
It has been two or three years since Murong Fei moved into the Hou Mansion, and it can be said that the old lady has grown up. The old man was already soft-eared, and when she cried for her, it became even softer, and she comforted the baby granddaughter in a soft voice: "Okay, okay, grandma knows, if you find that Langzhong, you will definitely send him to the government and punish him heavily!" Don't cry, good eyes, don't cry anymore......"
Murong Fei buried her head in the old lady's lap, and "cried" more and more vigorously: "Grandma, it's all Fei'er's fault, it's all Fei'er's fault, you punish me to go to the Buddha Hall......
Murong Xi was surrounded by a layer of ice and snow aura, and watched Murong Fei's twists and turns, turning over and over for a long time. My grandmother is a foolish master, and I can't see others crying. Murong Fei's cry, even if it was full of lies and omissions, made her hear the truth.
Murong Xi stabilized his mood and sternly warned: "Fei'er, this time for the sake of grandmother and his old man's face, I will let you go for the time being." If you don't die of a thief's heart and do something hurtful to your wife again, don't blame your brother for being unrighteous and the law of the country ruthless! ”
Murong Fei knew which set the old lady ate the most, and she just cried.
But the old lady said for her: "The girl's family is shallow-minded, and it is inevitable that she will be deceived. Fei'er, she knows it's wrong, don't scare her anymore......" lowered her head, and comforted: "Fei'er, you have to be more thoughtful in the future, don't fall for the ...... of the villains again"
After coming out for so long, I don't know if the medicine is boiled up, whether it tastes bitter or not, and Zhang Wenxin has not felt better after eating it...... Murong Xi was worried, got up and said goodbye: "Grandmother, Madame's situation is unknown, and my grandson will go back first." ”
The old lady stretched out her hand to call him: "Wait. I'll go with you and see the kid who asks the heart. ”
As soon as the command was given, a maid took a cloak, lit a lantern, and prepared to go out. The old lady coaxed a few words, left Murong Fei behind, and went out with Murong Xi accompanied by a group of maids.
Listening to the footsteps in the distance, Murong Fei snorted coldly in his heart, wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and stopped his sadness. Her personal maid Xiuxiang ran forward, picked her up from the ground, and said worriedly: "Miss, Mr. Xi is too godly, he found your head so quickly, what can I do now?" ”
"Hmph, what if you find out, what can he do with me? Xiuxiang, let's go. ”
Murong Fei walked out of the house in a few steps, and when he passed by the red flower, he took a sip angrily.
Seeing that her young lady was not on the way back to Cuixiu Pavilion, Xiuxiang couldn't help asking, "Miss, where are you going?" ”
"When I went to the Buddha Hall, although my grandmother was frightened by my momentary crying, we had too many flaws, and when she calmed down and thought about it, she would never have any doubts about me. So this confession of mistakes, you still have to do it. A little hardship can make grandma feel distressed, grandma is distressed, this thing is ...... in order to completely turn over the article. ”
Murong Fei shook his head and finished speaking, and then instructed Xiuxiang: "Help me bring the bed brocade quilt, remember to come and take it away before tomorrow morning, and then ......"
There are no weak soldiers under the strong general, Xiuxiang is worthy of being her maid, and said clearly: "As soon as the morning dawns, the slave maid came to the old lady and said that Miss, you knelt all night without touching water and rice, and everyone was infected with wind and cold, had a high fever, and refused to get up." Let the old lady come over in person and coax you back......"
Murong Fei was very satisfied with Xiuxiang's understanding, the corners of her lips raised, and she nodded approvingly.
There are few maids in the breeze, and there are few domestic servants, at this time, there is a dim candlelight in the master's room, coupled with the night breeze is sparse, and the leaves are swaying, which inevitably has a bit of a cold and desolate meaning.
The old lady saw it in her eyes and sighed again: "Tomorrow, I will order a few more diligent and neat people to come over and call in this courtyard." ”
There are many miscellaneous people, and Murong Xi refused: "Thank you grandmother for your care, but my wife and I don't like to be noisy, but this is not necessary." ”
The old lady was not reluctant: "It's okay." As long as you two live a comfortable life, grandma will be happy. ”
As he spoke, the people had already entered the room, and the maids lit a few more candles, and the room was much brighter.
Su Qiu put away the medicine bowl and got up from the side of the bed, Li Mobai also wrapped his sleeves and stood up to salute.
When the old lady saw that there were living people, she said, "This is ......."
Murong Xi didn't blink his eyes, he only embroidered his mouth and spit it out, and blew Li Mobai to the Nine Heavens: "Grandmother, this Mr. Li is the doctor of Chang'an Fang, he is indifferent to fame and fortune, does not seek to be heard, treats the poor people and dignitaries equally, is a wonderful hand to rejuvenate, save the dead and help the living immortals." ”
Li Mobai was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and at the end, he finally came back to his senses - it turned out that what Murong Xi said was him Li Mobai? This is amazing, he has been confused for most of his life, and today, he finally re-acquainted himself.
The old lady was in awe, and really called: "It turned out to be a living immortal, the old body doesn't know, how much neglect ......"
Li Mobai hurriedly returned the gift.
Passing him, the grandfather and grandson walked to the bed.
Zhang Wenxin was still a little powerless, so Murong Xi sat up and smiled reluctantly: "Grandma, it's so late, why did you still alarm your old man?" ”
The old lady persuaded her to lie down, and behind her, the maid handed over some human bird's nests and the like to Su Qiu, and the old lady chattered: "Speaking of which, it's all mine." Listen to a few gossips from others, and you will be confused. Alas, it made you suffer......"
Zhang Wenxin pushed hard and sat up straighter: "Grandma, I'm fine, you don't have to worry." ”
The old lady knew that she was afraid that she would be sad, and her heart was warm, so she took her hand with great pity, and the more she pulled it, the more outrageous it became: "You can rest in peace and take care of your body as soon as possible." Grandma, I'm looking forward to you adding a great-grandson to my old woman. If I can really wait for the day when the four generations are in the same house, it will be a blessing for grandma......"
Zhang Wenxin was dumbfounded for a while, looking at the old and young in front of him, and said in his heart that they were really ancestors and grandchildren, and when they spoke, one was more insignificant than the other.
After a boundless conversation, the old lady turned around and asked, "Living immortals, the sick ...... of conscience?"
Li Mobai is used to the lack of water, even if he is a god, he can't change the problem of bowing, he bowed slightly, and replied: "The pulse is peaceful, and there is no big problem." ”
"That's good, that's good......"
The old lady chattered gratefully, instructed the maid to reward Li Mobaiyinzi, and told Su Qiu that the supplements must remember to stew, and told Zhang Wenxin to remember to eat......
After a long time, after a few silent reminders from Murong Xi, the old man realized that he might have delayed the rest of the young couple, so he got up and said goodbye, and left with a group of maids.
