Chapter 124: Daughter Poisoned
Chapter 124: Daughter Poisoned
Mengxi saw Zhiqiu's smile on his face, so he asked why he was so happy, and when Zhiqiu heard the second "milk" and "milk" ask, he immediately laughed and said:
"I don't know about the second 'milk' and 'milk', Aunt Cui was punished by the second master"
"Aunt Cui has been punished, why? How can the second master be willing to be punished?"
"It's not because Aunt Li, yesterday the second master happened to come back earlier, Aunt Cui sent Si'er to look for the second master, saying that she was sick, please ask the second master to go over, the second master left Xiao Xiangyuan with the fourth child, who knew that when passing by the chrysanthemum garden, it happened that Aunt Li came out and chatted with the second master, I don't know what means to use, but the second master actually forgot to visit the patient, and followed Aunt Li into the chrysanthemum garden, Si'er went back and said to Aunt Cui, that Aunt Cui immediately went to the chrysanthemum garden, and scolded Aunt Li in front of the second master is a fox spirit, and finally moved, That posture is like a disease, I heard that the second master was annoyed, reprimanded Aunt Cui, Aunt Cui was afraid, stopped, and finally the second master ordered someone to take Aunt Cui back to the Begonia Courtyard, and copied the women's training fifty times, last night, the second master did not stay overnight in the chrysanthemum garden, this second master did not go out, but has been in the study, this backyard fire, the second master did not go to the wind"
"I know that this Aunt Cui is not a safe master, how could the second master fall in love with such a person? Since she came in, this backyard has been quiet that day, fortunately, the second master was favored and divided into hospitals, otherwise, seeing that heaven and earth are in this courtyard, I don't know how to make trouble, we should not hear these things, try to stay away"
"That's it, the things in this backyard are supposed to be managed by the 'milk' and 'milk', how can there be an aunt who is sick, don't report the 'milk' and 'milk' to the doctor, go directly to the master, obviously looking for oil to hook the second master, the second 'milk' and 'milk' are also true, or we are the most quiet here, but you and the second master are always so cold, it's not a thing, you have to think of a way."
Zhiqiu said, sighed, Mengxi glanced at Zhiqiu, and persuaded her a few days ago that men were unreliable, so let her not fall for the second master, and today I said this again, it seems that the deep-rooted thinking of the ancients from the beginning to the end can not be changed overnight, and her family Zhiqiu's will still needs to be honed.
Thinking of this, Mengxi secretly sighed that she had a long way to go out of the house, and it was true that the revolution had not yet succeeded, and the comrades still needed to work hard.
While the two were talking, they saw Zhixia running in in a hurry, panting and saying:
"Two's 'milk' and 'milk', it's not good, the eldest lady and the third lady have an accident"
When Mengxi and Zhiqiu heard this, they were both startled, and Zhiqiu jumped up suddenly:
"You slow down, what's going on"
"The two girls suddenly became ill, now their faces are blue, their belly seems to be burst, they don't wake up, they have gone to ask for a doctor, and reported to the old lady, the eldest lady, the second master and others, they have probably arrived at the plum garden, I don't know why, no one goes back and forth to the second "milk" and "milk", if it weren't for the slave and maid to see everyone running to the plum garden, but also to see the excitement, the second "milk" and "milk" still don't know it. The second "milk" and "milk" hurry up, otherwise the eldest lady will say that the second "milk" and "milk" don't care about her daughter, and take the opportunity to punish you."
Mengxi couldn't cry or laugh when she heard this, this Zhixia is really her hardcore, this is about to die, Zhixia is not in a hurry, but is worried that she will be punished if she goes late, not only secretly sighing that she has been in this deep mansion compound for a long time, but people will become cold-blooded and ruthless, who cares about a living life.
"Don't rush to go yet, Zhixia, you think about the situation carefully"
When Mengxi heard about the situation of the two, the first thing he thought of was poisoning, and at the same time, he remembered the black hand that harmed the second master, and his heart tightened, who the hell is it, he must let the second master cut off his children and grandchildren!
"Listening to the eldest lady's 'milk' mother, the two young ladies just said that their stomachs were swollen at first, and the 'milk' mother gave them 'rubbing', but the more the young lady screamed, the more she experienced harm, and finally fainted."
"What did the young lady use for lunch?"
"There are palace bursts, vinegared yellow croaker, tons of beef potatoes, bamboo sunflower hibiscus egg soup, and roasted eggplant, which is used for rice"
"Is there anything wrong with the other people who are eating together?"
"Listen to the big 'milk' and 'milk''s personal maid Yan'er said, the eldest aunt also ate, and gave the rest to her and Hong'er to eat, everyone is fine, the eldest aunt also said that it is not poisoning, it must be some emergency certificate, the second 'milk' and 'milk' go over quickly, the second master must be there now, if you don't see the second 'milk' and 'milk', it must be another seizure, the second 'milk' and 'milk' are the mothers of the two young ladies after all."
Mengxi listened to Zhixia's words, and also concluded that it was not the food that was done with the food, but what was the reason for that, thinking like this, he frowned unconsciously.
Zhixia saw that the second "milk" and "milk" were not leaving, but only stood there frowning, and rubbed his hands in a hurry. I almost jumped up and took the second "milk" and "milk" away.
"Zhixia, think about it again, did they say what the two young ladies ate and drank alone after dinner?"
"By the way, as soon as the second 'milk' and 'milk' asked, the slave remembered that the two young ladies also ate a few strings of sugar gourds."
"Sugar gourd?"
"It's the kind made with fruit and sugar"
"What fruit, what sugar"
"I heard that the apples are peeled, cut into pieces, boiled with sugar and wrapped in them, skewered with bamboo skewers, and boiled with brown sugar, and the two young ladies like to eat it."
"Brown sugar, are you sure? That sugar gourd is made of brown sugar? ”
"The slave was sure that it was brown sugar, and listened to the "milk" mother say, because the apple was white "colored", wrapped in brown sugar, and the "color" was very eye-catching, so she specially asked, how did the "color" of the sugar gourd reveal the red "color", and Huang Ju said that it was made of brown sugar."
"Huang Ju? What does this have to do with chrysanthemum? Why don't you use white sugar? ”
The maid who served the young lady said that after the two young ladies had eaten, the eldest aunt was afraid that the young lady would rest immediately and accumulate food, so she instructed them to lead the two young ladies to the yard to eliminate food, the two young ladies were playing at the door, and happened to meet Aunt Li's maid Huang Ju, who was carrying the freshly made sugar gourd back to the chrysanthemum garden, saying that Aunt Li wanted to eat, and Huang Ju is now going to the kitchen to make it, this is Huang Ju's unique craft, often using different seasonal fruits to make Aunt Li eat, the whole yard people know, this time it is said that Aunt Li has come with a monthly letter in the past two days, So Huang Ju deliberately used brown sugar, and the two young ladies liked it very much, so Huang Ju gave the two young ladies a few strings"
Hearing this, Mengxi remembered the food taboo poem she had recited:
"Beef taboo brown sugar - eating the same food to rise to death" must be like this, the eldest lady and the third lady ate these two things at the same time, and committed a taboo, is it a coincidence?
Thinking of this, Mengxi raised his head and asked Zhiqiu:
"Do you still have those purses you made the other day?"
"Yes, do you want to use two 'milk' and 'milk'?"
Zhiqiu said as he rummaged through the drawer under the bedside cabinet.
Mengxi turned around and went to the backyard, and after a while, retrieved a "medicine" pill, and at this time, Zhiqiu had already found a few purses and showed them to the second "milk" and "milk".
Mengxi picked out a purse with a pair of swallows embroidered with an older color, and asked Zhiqiu to tie it with a red rope.
"Two 'milk' 'milk', this one is used, those few are new, two 'milk' and 'milk' should be used, or use new ones"
Mengxi glanced at Zhiqiu and didn't speak, just wrapped the 'medicine' pill, put it in the purse, hung it around his neck, and then untied the collar and put the purse into his clothes.
"Two, milk, milk, what are you doing?"
"I'm useful, when I get to the plum garden, don't talk 'messy', look at my eyes and act, let's go, let's go to the plum garden"
After Mengxi finished speaking, he motioned to Zhixia to lead the way in front, Zhiqiu pouted, took two steps dissatisfied, and stepped forward to support the second "milk" and "milk".
When Mengxi came to the Plum Garden, the old lady, the eldest lady and the second master had already arrived, and when the eldest lady saw her come in, her face immediately sank:
"Second, 'milk' and 'milk' still know that they have a daughter!"
