"How do you see that?" When Qiu Yulan said goodbye, he and Shui Jin got up to see each other, and the two walked on the flower path in the backyard, and they all asked their subordinates to stay away - after being silent for a while, he asked Shui Jin faintly, "I remember that you don't know much about medical science, but just now you looked at the medicine bowl served by the seventh sister-in-law twice?" ”

"In the early years, my brother was assassinated when he was keeping filial piety with my grandfather, and he was very seriously injured, and I lived in Nguyen Mansion for several days to accompany him." Qiu Yulan sighed.

He Shuijin was stunned, and then showed a wry smile: "That's right...... I have forgotten about this: your brother was injured in the first place, and the medicine boiled was of course also used for external injuries. You are accompanying him in Ruan's mansion, even if you are not familiar with medical science, but it is not difficult to remember the smell of medicine, you actually didn't see it just now, but smelled that the medicine was not a cure at all, but a cure for injuries, right? ”

"Is it the hand of the sixth sister-in-law? Did you tell her the truth about her death? Qiu Yulan turned the bracelet on his wrist and asked softly.

After she heard that Zhang's medicine was taken by a person who had been traumatized, she guessed the truth: He's status is noble, and the people who come and go are like clouds, except for the people around her, who can hurt her? Taking 10,000 steps back, even if she was really hurt, why did she keep it silent and only cover up her illness to the outside world? It must be because I can't talk about it!

Otherwise, this Princess Gui is not a magnanimous person, especially when she saw her injured like that just now, it seems that she will not lie down for a few months, and she will recover slowly, I am afraid that it is a luxury to stay. suffered such a big loss, if she didn't dare to reveal it, she urged others to avenge herself! How is it possible to pretend to be sick?!

Sure enough, He Shuijin sighed: "It's the hand of the sixth sister-in-law...... I didn't tell her, though. ”

In fact, it is similar to what she told in person, because, "It was my mother's dowry who accidentally said that she leaked her mouth half a year ago, and the reason why Xiao'er used a snake to scare me was because she was privately teased by her mother and a little maid in front of her, so the maid was allowed to go to the south far away afterwards - the sixth sister-in-law asked her mother's family to go to the south to look for half a year, and finally came back with a letter last month, saying that the maid confessed under torture, and she was ordered by her mother to do so!" ”

Speaking of this, He Shui Jin smiled miserably, "The sixth sister-in-law came to me after she found out and told me what happened - just that I said that I have Ya'er, even though I still have a heartache for the previous child, but what can I do for Ya'er?" So she had to do it herself. ”

Qiu Yulan is silent, widowed and widowed, Shi Shi, who is young and widowed, is indeed the most suitable knife. It's really embarrassing for He Shuijin, who knew the truth so early, and endured it for so many years before he started - no, it wasn't necessarily that He Shuijin was willing to endure it, I'm afraid he still wanted to seek justice for his children, and he was unwilling to pay any price for this vicious mother-in-law and aunt - calculate the time, half a year ago was the time to break up!

"After the separation, everyone lived together, not like when they lived in the Qin State Mansion in the past; And the family is divided, the industry is also divided, and the fourteenth sister-in-law originally needed to take care of the property of the entire Guogong Mansion, but now she only needs to worry about this part of the Guiwang Mansion, which greatly frees up time and energy - she will do it immediately! ”

Qiu Yulan speculated about the grievances of the third room in her heart, and she didn't have much desire to intervene, but couldn't help but ask: "The sixth sister-in-law now?" ”

"Locked up, I plan to release the news tonight, saying that she fell ill because she was too hard to serve the illness." And Shui Jin said lightly.

"And then a few days of a natural death?" Qiu Yulan frowned, "Speaking of which, she is also pitiful!" "Qiu Yulan's relationship with Shi before is really not good, not to mention that Shi's husband Jiang Yaqing died in the hands of Sifang, even if there is no evidence, but both sides are tacit, based on this alone, Shi's relationship with everyone in Sifang is not good!

Let's just say that Shi Shi has dealt with Qiu Yulan several times, and for various reasons, they basically don't like each other every time - but think about the innocent Jiang Jinghua, Qiu Yulan feels that he should say a few words for this sixth sister-in-law.

This is also the reason why she deliberately let He Shuijin find out that she noticed the medicine He Shi drank before, otherwise she would know that it was wrong as soon as she smelled the medicine, so why bother to look at it again and again?

"She helped me so much, how could I treat her badly?" Fortunately, He Shuijin didn't mean to use Shi's as an abandoned son, she reached out and stroked her sideburns, and said with a light smile, "Even her mother's dowry has been told to her, do you think she will be wronged now?" I've beaten the four mothers-in-law and two maids over there, and I must serve her like a mother-in-law—and in order to keep the sixth sister-in-law from despairing, I'm going to talk to her tonight! ”

If she hadn't run the backyard of King Gui's Mansion like an iron bucket a long time ago, even if Shi was able to stab her mother-in-law with He's defenselessness, such a terrifying rebellion would have been concealed without leaking, how could it be possible?

Qiu Yulan glanced at her, and didn't ask her what she planned to talk to Shi, but said, "The sixth sister-in-law didn't succeed, and you didn't add a handle?" ”

"She didn't succeed because I pulled her back, otherwise, Princess Gui would have died violently!" He Shui Jin sneered, suddenly stood still, looked at her fixedly, and said, "Do you think that what He Shi did can be redeemed just by dying?!" ”

The co-author is to keep He's life and torture slowly-Qiu Yulan nodded, probably guessing what He Shuijin went to say to Shi tonight, and didn't ask in detail, but said: "The third aunt's condition doesn't seem to be very good, I'm afraid that I will have to raise it for a long time in the future." I remember that I had a few good ginseng sticks there, and I sent them back, and my sister-in-law looked at the stewed soup or medicine, which was a little bit of my heart! ”

He Shuijin breathed a sigh of relief and said gratefully: "That's really good!" ”

Sent her to the place where she got into the car, lowered her voice and whispered, "I have no other thank-you gifts to get into your eyes, look back at the things in your industry, no matter what it is, as long as you can trust it, even if someone comes to me, I will do my best!" ”

"Then I'll make a note of it, and I'll come to my sister-in-law if there is anything in the future!" After she returned to the Chongjun Palace, she ordered someone to pack a box of mountain ginseng and send it to the Guiwang Mansion, so she put the matter aside.

But two days later, it was her turn to serve, and when she arrived at the Beique Palace, the crown princess naturally asked about the situation of the He family: "I heard that you have all been to see it?" ”

"The third aunt doesn't look very good!" The first to answer was Chu Yitong, the crown princess probably hoped that the two daughters-in-law would have more contact to improve the relationship, so they had been arranged to be together these few times - and Chu Yitong and Qiu Yulan also showed reconciliation and friendship in front of her.

For example, now, Chu Yitong frowned slightly and said, "Not only the third aunt, but even the sixth sister-in-law have fallen ill because of the hard work of serving the sick, and now in King Gui's mansion, the seventh sister-in-law and the fourteenth brother and sister are busy and busy, and they can't be separated!" Fortunately, the nineteen brothers and sisters sent a good ginseng last time, and when the daughter-in-law went to visit, the seventh sister-in-law and the fourteenth brother and sister also asked the daughter-in-law to thank the nineteen brothers and sisters! ”

Qiu Yulan also reciprocated: "A few ginseng is nothing, and King Gui's Mansion is not nothing, but it is just to express his heart." But I heard that the eighth sister-in-law, you also sent a box of snow lotus that the imperial grandmother gave you before? That's a rare thing! ”

"As long as the elders are good, no matter how good things are, they are worth the money!" Chu Yitong smiled gently, and said to the crown princess, "I did this without asking the imperial grandmother, and begged my mother to go back and help her daughter-in-law explain?" ”

"How big is it?" The crown princess said indifferently, "Your imperial grandmother is generous, can she still care about these trivial matters with you?" ”

Although the crown princess knew that He's condition was serious, she still didn't care very much - originally, the crown princess went to the border in her early years, and she didn't get along with He's for a few years, and those years were really not harmonious. After all, He's heart is so small that even his niece who makes cattle and horses for himself is jealous, and the crown princess is a good woman who loves to pinch the tip of the ladder without falling behind. Son, it's strange that they can love each other!

The reason why I asked was just a formality to get in the way of face, and the news that He was sick to death was not as important as easing the relationship between her two daughters-in-law in the eyes of the crown princess.

This will casually order, "Let the Tai Hospital judge the time to go and see, what medicinal materials are lacking, just withdraw them from the inner library, and always let people get better quickly!" ”

Then he said, "The queen mother is not all right now, so don't tell the queen mother about this first, so as not to worry about the queen mother, you all remember to keep your mouth tight!" ”

The people of the surrounding palace hurriedly said yes.

In this case, Princess Gui's illness gradually became serious, to the point where she had to lie on the couch for many years to recuperate, and the crown princess only sighed: "How can a good person be like this?" "The old rule: instruct the imperial doctor, send precious herbs, and tonics...... I don't care about how I want to live when it's over.

The others are similar-just sigh and send something: "Fortunately, the eldest daughter-in-law who was sick before is getting better, otherwise King Gui's Mansion is really ......"

After a few more days, Queen Tao's side was almost healed, and the news came out of King Gui's Mansion that Princess Gui was ill for a long time, and she thought that the palace was not clean enough, so she decided to go to Zhuangzi outside the city to live, and the three daughters-in-law scrambled to follow to serve, and finally Shi Shi brought out the eldest sister-in-law's shelf to solve the dispute: "The family's property has always been dotted by fourteen brothers and sisters, you went to Zhuangzi, what if there is something in the shop or at home?!" ”

"And the seventh brother and sister, don't care about the children under your knees? Don't wait on your father's side? Seventh brother, don't you take care of it?! Don't you look at the favors?! I, the surviving person, are a little more idle in this house, Huai'er has already entered school, and Hongru from his own Wencui Pavilion disciplines him, and you can watch for me if you stay in the house - so what are you two fighting for? I must have gone to Zhuangzi with my mother! You give me a share of peace and security to stay in the house, and it is serious to take care of this mansion and take care of it! ”

…… Shi sent He's to Zhuangzi and didn't go back to the house after staying, although Zhang and He Shuijin didn't go to stay, but they also took turns to serve for a few days, and the news from Zhuangzi was that He's three daughters-in-law were more filial than one another, and they served her like something. It's a pity that the daughter-in-law can't get better no matter how hard she serves, so she has to stay in Zhuangzi for a long time - a year has passed in the blink of an eye, if it weren't for the filial piety of her three daughters-in-law often spread, Jingzhong would soon forget her......

In the spring of the third year of Zhaode, Qiu Yulan listened to another round of comments about Princess Gui's good life and daughter-in-law's filial piety and smiled coldly: "I don't know how these three daughters-in-law are filial to their mother-in-law in that Zhuangzi?" "I'm afraid all the eighteen punishments are ready, right?

But she didn't want to touch the grievances of King Gui's Mansion, so she only muttered in her heart that even if she didn't talk about it for too long: at the end of last year, the prince approved the invitation of Yao Lun, the new general of Zhenxi, and summoned the family of King Jing to return to Beijing.

"Hibiscus, bring the warehouse list!" Qiu Yulan rubbed the corners of her forehead, and said to her daughter Jiang Huiying, who was sitting opposite her and fiddling with the tea set, "Your twenty-first sister and eighteenth brother are also back this time, and your brothers and sisters should prepare some thoughts for each other when they meet for the first time...... You pick first, and I'll teach you after you've picked it! ”

Jiang Huiying, who is five years old in the past year, is still an out-and-out child, but because of her identity, she already needs to learn the rules of social games.

Qiu Yulan nodded to her daughter, and at the same time thought to herself, "King Jingjun...... I don't know if I was really accidentally injured, or did I not hesitate to act in a bitter trick in order to find an excuse to return to Beijing? ”
