Chapter 233: Three Birds with One Stone
After listening to what Jin Feng said, Aunt Zhang said:
"I'm not stupid, the eldest lady's little cleverness, I thought of it a long time ago, so I asked you to put the medicine into the food that the eldest aunt gave to the second grandmother, so that even the eldest aunt will be removed together, and when the time comes, we will pinch the shortcomings of the eldest lady, she will definitely hand over the affairs of Xiaoxiangyuan to me to take care of, isn't this killing three birds with one stone."
"Auntie's idea is good, but it may not work, the eldest aunt's heart is careful, the food made for the second grandmother is watched by Hong'er or Yan'er herself, and she never pretends to others, where can we find opportunities?"
"This is exactly what I want to tell you, the people I planted in the plum garden have passed the word, today a big aunt wants to make rock sugar bird's nest porridge for the second grandmother, watched by Hong'er, I have breathed with Baozhu, Baozhu will arrange Qin'er to find a way to turn Hong'er away for a while, you take the opportunity to pour this package of medicine into the bird's nest porridge, the eldest lady said, this medicine is called crane ambergris, colorless and tasteless, down to the soup, even the average Jianghu knight is not easy to detect, not to mention the second grandmother is a woman's family, and listen to the eldest lady said, this poison can be solved except for the person who prepares it, Once the second grandmother takes it, she will definitely die. ”
"Hong'er is very clever, I'm afraid that even the piano can't be adjusted."
"It's just someone else, Qin'er is now the second grandmother's personal maid, under the banner of the second grandmother, Hong'er doesn't dare to delay, hum, the second grandmother has always been cautious and never accepts people in the house, this time, she deserves to die, relying on the second master's favor, the people in the mansion respect, the old lady and the eldest lady all let three points, I don't know what my surname is, and I actually accepted Qin'er and Wan'er for the first time."
Looking at the trace of ruthlessness that flashed in Aunt Zhang's eyes, Jin Feng shuddered, she knew so much, if she didn't do this, she would die.
Seeing that Jin Feng was standing there silent, Aunt Zhang looked at the sky and said:
"It's not early, you go quickly, I'm afraid you'll miss the opportunity if it's late, remember to be careful."
Jin Feng hurriedly responded, and walked out of the flower hall first, Aunt Zhang stood there again, looked around carefully, didn't find anything, and walked back along the bluestone path.
The figures of Aunt Zhang and Jin Feng disappeared, and Ping'er breathed a sigh of relief, at this time she was already sitting on the ground, and the paper harrier in her hand had been crumpled into a ball by her at some point.
At this time, Ping'er's little face was pale, although she was only six years old, there were many words of her aunt and Jin Feng just now, there were many things she didn't understand, but she understood one thing, that is, her aunt wanted to poison her mother, and she also understood, once this matter was discovered, her aunt would be executed, this recognition made her heart tremble, and her two little legs seemed to be out of strength, and she couldn't move half a minute while sitting there.
Ping'er doesn't understand why her aunt wants her mother to die, she likes her mother, she likes to listen to her mother's stories, her mother will occasionally pat her head when telling stories, so that she feels infinitely warm, whenever she is sick, her aunt forces her to drink bitter medicine soup, she will ask her mother for help, her mother will give her some sweet sugar water, and she will hold her in her arms.
The aunt just taught her that she would be stricter when she was a girl, but she also doted on her, she didn't want her mother to die, and she didn't want her aunt to die, but she didn't know what to do to save her mother and not hurt her aunt.
Sitting there and thinking about it for a long time, clapping her hands, yes, you can go to the kitchen to stop Jin Feng from drugged, Ping'er thought of this, got up with a bone, slapped the soil on her body urgently, reflexively crossed the flower path, and ran back.
As soon as I arrived at the back door, I didn't pay attention, and I was bumping into Huan'er who was about to enter the backyard, Huan'er was the big girl who was serving her closely, and when she saw Ping'er, she hurriedly squatted down and hugged her, and complained:
"My little ancestor, I can find you, the slave and maid are only a flash, you are gone, where have you gone, let the slave and maid be easy to find, the aunt is also looking for you everywhere, the second lady will go with the slave to see the aunt?"
went to see the aunt, and when the aunt saw that she came back from the backyard, she didn't suspect that she had overheard her and Jin Feng's words, and prevented herself from going to find Jin Feng, thinking of this, Ping'er put her hand to her mouth and said:
"Huan'er be quiet, let your aunt see Ping'er like this, she must be reprimanded again, don't tell your aunt Ping'er to go to the backyard to play."
Only then did Huan'er notice the soil on Ping'er's body, bluffed, and asked:
"Second Miss, what are you doing here, why are you covered in dirt, hurry up and go back to the house with the slave and maid to clean it, my aunt will see it, and I will punish the slave and maid."
"Ping'er doesn't tell her aunt, and Huan'er doesn't say it, it's fine."
Huan'er thought about it, and when the aunt saw the second lady like this, they had to suffer as slaves, so she nodded, picked up Ping'er, quietly went back to the house to wash her, and after cleaning, led her to Aunt Zhang's house, Ping'er looked around with her eyes, but didn't see Jin Feng, only Ling'er was waiting alone, secretly guessing that Jin Feng must have gone to the kitchen according to her aunt's instructions, but she didn't feel flustered, and she couldn't wait to fly to the kitchen with wings.
Listening to my aunt ask about the female red in the past two days, I sat there absent-mindedly, and it was easy to listen to my aunt's nagging, and when I saw that my aunt finally sent a message to let her go down, I hurriedly got up and retreated, and walked out in a proper manner.
As soon as she got out of the house, Ping'er ran away, and was dragged by the ring that followed behind:
"Second Miss, where are you going here, as soon as my aunt finished speaking, you stop and stop, stop running around, be careful of being punished."
Ping'er waved her hand and wanted to break away from Huan'er, she didn't want to be caught, she didn't want Huan'er to follow her, Ping'er rolled her eyes and said:
"Let's go hide the cat at the door."
"Second Miss ......"
Seeing that Huan'er was about to block it, Ping'er leaned in and asked:
"Are you going or not?"
"Okay, okay, Miss wants to play with Tibetan cats, and the slave and maid accompany you, but okay, Ping'er is only playing at the gate of the courtyard, and seeing that the sun is going down, it's time for dinner."
Seeing Ping'er nodding, Huan'er accompanied Ping'er to play with the Tibetan cat at the gate of the courtyard, and looked for two of each other, it was time for Ping'er to hide, Ping'er took two steps, and came back and shouted at Huan'er to play tricks and peek at her.
Huan'er couldn't make a fuss, so she had to wait with her eyes closed in front of the wall according to Ping'er's intentions, and when she saw Huan'er close her eyes, Ping'er quietly walked out of the door, shouting as she walked:
"Don't allow Lai Pi to open his eyes, I'll hide it, shout one, two, three, you open your eyes again!"
"Yes, miss, the slave knows, you should go and hide it quickly!"
Quietly walked out of the courtyard gate, Ping'er saw that there was no one left and right, and ran in the direction of the kitchen in her memory, running and running, suddenly stopped, and looked ahead with wide eyes.
I saw the eldest aunt's personal maid Hong'er walking towards her, followed by a little maid, carrying a silver tray with a bowl and a spoon on it.
Ping'er didn't know if the bowl was filled with rock sugar bird's nest porridge that her aunt said, and she didn't know if Jin Feng put the packet of medicine given by her aunt into it, seeing that they were about to turn a fork in the road, Ping'er knew that the bowl of porridge must have been given to her mother, because that fork in the road was the direction to Xiao Xiangyuan.
didn't have time to think about it, Ping'er ran forward desperately, she wanted to spill the bowl of porridge, regardless of whether there was poison in it, as long as her mother couldn't drink it, it would be fine, she didn't want her mother to die!
Pretending not to hear Hong'er's loud shout, he closed his eyes and bumped into the little maid behind Hong'er, only to see the little maid scream, stopped, and raised the tray in his hand high.
After all, it was a child, and after running so far, she didn't have much momentum, Hong'er hugged her and let out a sigh, stabilized her mind, patted her chest, and said:
"My God, it's scared to death of the slave maid, Second Miss, where are you going, don't look at the road, it's okay to spill the porridge, in case you burn the Miss, it's the slave's sin, the slave and the maid can't withstand a few heads, Huan'er and Guan Mama, why don't you follow you, why let you run around alone."
Almost, Ping'er stood there dejectedly and silent.
Seeing that the second lady didn't speak, Hong'er continued:
"Where are you going, second miss, talk to the slave, and the slave will send this bowl of rock sugar bird's nest porridge to the second grandmother, and then take you there, you must not run around like this, in case you meet a slave who is not long-eyed and hurts you, the second grandmother and Aunt Zhang will be angry again."
Hearing Hong'er say that the bowl of porridge was really rock sugar bird's nest porridge, Ping'er shuddered and asked:
"Did you just do it? Hong'er did it herself? ”
"What the second lady said is that this is made by the slave maid to honor the second grandmother, just out of the pot, and it is still hot, or the slave maid can be frightened just now, for fear of burning you."
Ping'er listened, opened her mouth, and wanted to ask Hong'er if she had been staring at the kitchen and never left, but she instinctively didn't say it, and saw Hong'er wiping her sweat with a handkerchief, looking at her with concern, blinking her eyes and saying:
"I'm going to my mother's."
"That's great, the slave is just dropping you off."
Seeing Ping'er nodding, Hong'er stepped forward to take Ping'er and said to the little maid behind:
"Let's go!"
Sitting on the embroidery pier, Ping'er looked at her mother gently stirring the bowl of rock sugar bird's nest porridge with a spoon, she didn't hear what her mother said to herself, as soon as she entered the house, she was thinking about how to destroy the bowl of porridge, after a while, she had imagined a thousand ways to destroy the bowl of porridge, but since she entered the house, she was settled on the embroidery pier by her mother, and left the bowl of porridge far away, she could only watch with her eyes, fantasizing.
"Ping'er ......"
"Ping'er ......"
Mengxi screamed twice, and seeing that no one responded, she looked up and saw that Ping'er was looking at her bowl in a daze, so she smiled unconsciously and said:
"Does Ping'er want to drink bird's nest porridge too? Wan'er, go get a bowl! ”
Hearing her mother call Wan'er to get the bowl, thinking that she wanted to share bird's nest porridge for her to drink, Ping'er shuddered violently and screamed:
"Nope! Mother, don't! ”
"What's wrong with Ping'er?"
Mengxi listened to Ping'er's words, was taken aback, looked back at Ping'er, and met her mother's puzzled gaze, Ping'er came back to her senses, remembering that if her mother knew that her aunt was poisoned, her aunt would have to die, so she hurriedly said:
"No, Ping'er...... Ping'er wanted to say that Ping'er didn't like to eat bird's nest, it didn't taste anything, and it was not as delicious as the lotus seed and lily porridge made by her mother. ”
After all, it is a child, and all emotions are written on his face, and with Ping'er's dodgy gaze, Mengxi is secretly frightened, what happened to Ping'er today?
