Chapter 344 Retreat is advance
Between aunts and nephews, in just three or five sentences, Second Lady Qi made her plan clear.
"There is a lady in the palace, and there is a county lord in the family. The prosperity of Qi Mansion is in front of you. Second Lady Qi said.
Rao is Qi Er's grandmother is used to seeing wind and waves, and she was also taken aback, and her heart quickly pondered.
Either way, one thing was clear to her. Such a matter related to life, since Second Mrs. Qi found her and told her, it is not so easy to excuse.
"Mrs. wise. However, this matter should be considered again and considered in the long run. Second Grandma Qi didn't object directly, so she laughed.
Second Grandma Qi is satisfied with the current situation in the house, and several concubines. If she is replaced by a county lord as a concubine, and she will not be of the same heart as Qi Yu and his wife, it will naturally have many benefits to her, but the risks are not small. And she really can't find fault with Xun Qing's dyeing, on the contrary, the two have always gotten along very well. Xun Qingran's temperament is peaceful, generous, and willing to treat people sincerely, she is simply a perfect concubine. If it's a small stumbling block, a small fight, it's just that. It's just that the second lady of Qi wants Xun Qingran's life, and Xun Qingran is still pregnant, even if she is as ruthless as her, she can't help but hesitate and be weak-hearted.
"I've thought it all through. Not to mention how much benefit marrying the county lord can bring to the house, you think about it, we have done so many things, and the dyed girl is next to her, she will find out sooner or later, if she tells the old lady, then our aunt and nephew will be finished in the Qi family. Keeping her is always a scourge. Second Lady Qi continued to persuade Second Grandma Qi.
Xun Qingran is almost a perfect concubine, the only imperfection may be that people are too smart to hide anything from her. Even if she is smart enough to know how to pretend to be stupid, but after a few years of getting along, Grandma Qi also understands that the things in this mansion and her methods are all clearly seen by Xun Qingran. For example, a few days ago, Qi Wanrong's incident......
Besides, Second Lady Qi has already made up her mind, and she must not listen to persuasion.
Grandma Qi Er pondered in her heart, it must be like this, if the matter is done, she will also share some benefits, if it doesn't work, it will not be held accountable to her.
"What is my wife going to do?" Grandma Qi Er asked.
Second Mrs. Qi took out the paper bag given by Mama Gu.
"Colorless and tasteless, it is a secret medicine in the palace. You are in charge of the house, and you have always been good friends with her, which is the most convenient to start. You just have to think about putting this in her diet and it won't leave any traces. Besides, she is pregnant, and accidents are common. Second Mrs. Qi looked at Second Grandma Qi, "Even if others are suspicious, they can't find out anything." Welcome girl, don't you say? ”
Second Grandma Qi saw the look in the eyes of Second Lady Qi, but her heart moved. Could it be that the hands and feet she did a few days ago were discovered by Second Mrs. Qi?
What if they find out, they are aunts and nephews, will they still expose her?
Grandma Qi Er made up her mind, but she didn't pick up the paper bag. Second Lady Qi wanted to use her to make a knife, and she had already done it once for Second Lady Qi, but because the matter was urgent, there was no way, and the person she dealt with was insignificant. Now the situation is very different.
"It would have been extremely convenient. But Mrs., now she doesn't need to eat in the public kitchen, and the small kitchen where Ning lives far away, even I can't get involved. I sent her a few times to eat, but she didn't use it when I inquired. Madam, we have to think of another way. ”
Second Lady Qi couldn't help frowning when she heard Second Grandma Qi say the same.
"Our aunt and nephew, one is prosperous and the other is lost. You don't have to worry, the aftermath is up to the county lord and the palace. ”
"Madam, what I said is the truth, not an excuse." Second Grandma Qi said, "I understand what Mrs. said. Whatever I could, I did as my wife told me. This matter, but it is a dilemma. ”
Of course, Grandma Qi is embarrassed, if Xun Qing has an accident and it involves her, which one of the Rong family or Qi You will let her go? But the second lady of Qi is different, after all, she gave birth to so many children for the Qi family, and her daughter also became a concubine and became pregnant with a dragon species.
"Madam, although she doesn't eat and drink outside Ning Yuanju, but when she arrives at Mrs., if Mrs. insists on letting her use some tea and snacks, she can't shirk it, and she can't get rid of it. Even if it happens later, my wife can shirk it. Mrs. has been treating her very well recently, and everyone in the house will see it in their eyes and will not be suspicious. Second Grandma Qi suggested to Second Lady Qi, "If something happens to her, Ning Yuanju will be in chaos." Then I thought about putting some of that medicine in her diet, and then we sent someone to search it out, and then there would be someone who lived far away as a substitute for the dead ghost. Isn't God unaware? ”
Second Lady Qi thought about it and nodded. The idea that Grandma Qi Er came up with seems to be the only feasible one at present, and the method of dealing with the aftermath that Grandma Qi Er said is really a clever plan.
"In that case, do as you say." Second Lady Qi made a decision.
"Madam, it's time for the old lady to wake up." Second Grandma Qi reminded that this matter should always be hidden from the Rong family.
"You go to the old lady's side and think about dragging the old lady." Second Lady Qi said.
This is exactly what Qi Er's grandmother wants. If she is not present, even if she is investigated in the future, it will never be held accountable to her.
"Yes, ma'am, I'll go over here." Grandma Qi said.
"Go and invite the fourth grandmother to come and say that I have something to discuss with her. Well, tell her that it's to discuss the matter of entertaining the county lord of Ningxin. Second Lady Qi called in a confidant girl and commanded.
Grandma Qi Er came out of the prayer hall, only then did she quietly breathe a sigh of relief and walked quickly to Yinian House.
…………
Xun Qingran led people to the door of Yinian's residence, and a big girl in green clothes stopped Xun Qingran.
"Fourth grandmother, the old lady is still asleep, and she said that she didn't see anyone, please come back later." The green-clothed maid laughed.
"Oh?" Xun Qingran raised her eyes and looked at this girl.
This girl looks a little familiar, with a melon seed face, quite a bit of posture, a pair of narrow eyes, inadvertently shining with fine light, but she is a shrewd image. Xun Qing dyed people, she was a second-class girl serving in Rong's house, named Yuhuan.
Yuhuan saw Xun Qingran looking at her like this, and her heart was a little weak, but she still forced her calmness.
Xun Qingran sneered in her heart, she sent someone to inquire just now, Rong Shi had already woken up, how could she sleep again after this kung fu, it was obvious that this girl was lying. It's really bold, and it's been instructed by whom.
The girls in Rong's house are all somewhat decent. The words they say are sometimes equivalent to the words of the Rong family, that is, the old ladies and women in the mansion have to listen to a few points.
But today is different, even if the Rong family is really asleep, Xun Qingran must see the Rong family at this time.
"The old lady always eats lunch at the beginning of the afternoon, then takes medicine, and sleeps for half an hour, and this time is when she should be awake." Xun Qing said. Because she comes to take care of Rong's every day, she naturally knows Rong's living habits well.
"The fourth grandmother is right. This old lady took the medicine late, and added calming herbs to the medicine, and it took a while to wake up. The fourth grandmother knew that the doctor instructed the old lady to recuperate, and it was not easy to disturb. Yuhuan continued to laugh.
"Fourth grandmother, it turns out that you are here." In the distance, a girl in an autumn-scented gown walked over quickly.
"Mrs. invited the fourth grandmother over to discuss how to entertain Lord Ningxin." The girl walked closer, bowed to Xun Qingran, and said.
Second Mrs. Qi is looking for her at this time, it is difficult that she is about to do it, and she really can't wait for a moment. Xun Qingran sneered in his heart, but his face was as calm as water.
"I see. You go back and tell your wife, and I'll go over here. Xun Qing said.
The girl saw that Xun Qingran didn't plan to follow her, so she was a little embarrassed.
"Fourth grandmother, Mrs. is anxiously waiting for the fourth grandmother. Entertaining the county lord is a major event in the house. ”
"Yes, the fourth grandmother went to the second lady first, and wouldn't it be good to come back and see the old lady." Yuhuan interjected.
"When did the rules change in this house, and what the masters want to do, it still depends on the arrangement of the slaves." Xun Qingran laughed instead of being angry.
After Xun Qingran was behind, Mama Xu coughed lightly. A mother-in-law stepped forward and squeezed the jade ring aside. Xun Qingran didn't have time to take care of these two girls at this time, and went directly to Yinian House.
The two girls were anxious, but they didn't dare to make any moves. They all know that the fourth grandmother has an excellent temper, but the temper of the people around the fourth grandmother is not so good, and the fourth grandmother has always been the most protective of the people around her. Therefore, I had to watch Xun Qing get infected into Yinianju.
Walking into the upper room, another mother-in-law came out from behind the screen to stop her, Xun Qingran was even more lazy to take care of it this time, and the two mothers-in-law behind her stepped forward and politely invited the mother-in-law to the room, Xun Qingran went straight to Rong's bedroom.
"Old lady, this ball of fish and yam soup has been boiled for a whole morning, it is not greasy or greasy, and now it is time to drink it. I'll serve the old lady and drink some. ”
Xun Qingran walked outside the bedroom door and heard the voice of Qi Er's grandmother inside.
"Wait." Xun Qingran hurriedly said loudly.
Dong'er and a few other girls were standing at the door of the bedroom waiting, and when they saw Xun Qingran, they hurriedly curtsied.
Xun Qingran led people straight into Rong's bedroom.
Rong sat on the couch, and Grandma Qi Er stood in front of the couch, holding a blue and white porcelain bowl in her hand, and was about to serve Rong to drink soup.
Seeing Xun Qing come in, both of them were taken aback. Rong didn't drink the soup handed over by Grandma Qi, and Grandma Qi's hand holding the spoon trembled slightly.
"Dye girl? Why are you in such a hurry? Be careful, come and sit down. Rong said.
Grandma Qi also squeezed out a smile on her face, turned around and handed the bowl in her hand to a girl beside her, and secretly glanced at the girl.
The little girl took the bowl and was about to go out, but was stopped by Mama Xu and put the bowl on a low table against the wall.
“…… It must be a good thing, put it here, and the old lady must still use it for a while. Mama Xu smiled.
Qi Er's grandmother's face changed slightly.
Rong saw that Xun Qing's face was different.
"What's wrong, dyed girl?" Rong asked with concern.
"Old lady," Xun Qingran's voice was a little choked as soon as she spoke.
Rong's hair is gray, his complexion is no longer as rosy as before, and his face is obviously emaciated.
Thinking of being a lot older, but suffering repeated blows in the past six months, and thinking of his current situation, Xun Qing's heart was blocked, and tears couldn't help but welling up in his eyes.
Rong knows that Xun Qing's temperament is the most soft on the outside and strong on the inside, if it wasn't a big deal, he would never cry before he spoke. Something terrible must have happened, and Rong's heart couldn't help but sink.
"Dye girl, what's wrong? Don't be afraid, grandmother is here. You tell your grandmother that your grandmother is in charge of you. Rong said, let Xun Qingran sit in front of her.
Second Grandma Qi was in a dilemma at this time, she wanted to leave immediately.
"Brother and sister, what's wrong? Look at the pitiful crying child, come on, get a wet veil. Grandma Qi commanded, but she thought the girls were too slow, and she was about to withdraw from the house while she was in the situation.
"Second sister-in-law, don't go, this matter also has something to do with the second sister-in-law." Xun Qingran stopped Grandma Qi.
Second Grandma Qi couldn't get away, so she had to stand in front of Rong's couch with Xiaoxiao. Her heart was empty, and she still had a smile on her face.
"What does my brother and sister have to do with me? I don't know at all. ”
Xun Qingran kept Qi Er's grandmother, so he no longer paid attention to her, but knelt down in front of Rong with tears.
"If the old lady takes pity on me, ask the old lady to give me a letter of resignation, and let me leave the house immediately." Xun Qing burst into tears.
Second Grandma Qi was still unsure, but now she understands that it must be the second Mrs. Qi's plan that leaked the news. Second Mrs. Qi said that only three people in the house knew about this matter, Second Mrs. Qi, her, and Mama Zhang, how did Xun Qingran get the news so quickly. Grandma Qi Er couldn't think about this problem deeply, the most important thing at the moment was how to get rid of the embarrassing situation she was in.
"What do you mean?" Rong shook his hands and went to help Xun Qing. Xun Qingran was in the mansion, he had suffered so many grievances, but he never said a word of retreat or leaving, what happened now.
Xun Qingran refused to get up.
"You kid, if you have something to say, you really can't bear to see me in a hurry, you don't care about anything else, but also think about the child in your belly." Rong's urgency.
Rong is really anxious for her, and he really feels sorry for the child in her belly. Xun Qingran's heart was slightly determined.
Mama Xu and others also stepped forward to help, and Xun Qingran also stood up.
"What forced you to do this, you said, grandmother will definitely call the shots for you." Yung Road.
"Old lady, Lord Ningxin is here, and he has already lived in the New Year's Hall." Xun Qing said.
This sentence reveals a lot of information.
Rong Shi was taken aback, and his eyes quickly glanced at Second Grandma Qi.
Xun Qingran knew that Grandma Qi Er did not tell the Rong family the news that Ning Xin was coming.
"I was about to tell the old lady to know," Grandma Qi hurriedly replied.
"Ning Xin, county lord? What's going on? Rong asked, "You'er is back?" Ying Zena? ”
I have to say that Rong instantly grasped the point of the matter.
"I'm confused, I don't know how to tell the old lady about that." Grandma Qi Er also found a suitable excuse in an instant, hoping to get by.
"Old lady," Xun Qingran immediately went to the Qi Mansion and told the Rong family how Ning Xin had restored her title, "Old lady, you must know the story of Princess Taiping." ”。.。
