Chapter 504: The head of the family fights
Seeing that the maid didn't speak again, this time the fat man was angry, only to hear the fat man say: "You should say it quickly, what else is there any news about the golden hairpin?" ”
The handmaid just looked at me quietly.
I took out a hundred dollars from my pocket, handed it to the maidservant, and said; "What else is there to say?"
The maidservant checked the authenticity of the money I had given her. While opening his mouth, he said: "The golden hairpin has always been kept by the old man. But in the first two months, the lord suddenly found that the golden hairpin was stolen, and it has not appeared so far! ”
The golden hairpin as a token passed down from generation to generation in the music family, it was stolen, if the person who stole the things was found out, it was a big crime, and he would definitely not be able to become the head of the family and would be beheaded, who would dare to do such a thing?
After getting the news of the theft of the golden hairpin. I immediately figured it out, no wonder the eldest lady was so nervous today. vigorously denied everything about the golden hairpin, and even her husband didn't dare to tell her.
"These are just small things, there is actually a shocking secret hidden in the golden hairpin, do you want to know?" The handmaid looked at me meaningfully and said.
Seeing that the maidservant girl stopped again, the fat man was sweating profusely, only to hear the fat man shouting loudly: "Oops! You say, don't sell it, what kind of shocking secret is hidden? ”
The handmaid stretched out her hand and placed it in front of me.
I took out a hundred dollars from my pocket again, but the maidservant shook her hand and said, "Give a thousand!" ”
"A thousand? You're too dark, aren't you? "After hearing the words of the maidservant. Chen Jinghao finally couldn't help it and scolded loudly.
The servant shrugged her shoulders and said, "If you don't want to know, pull it down, anyway, I didn't force you to know, right?" ”
I searched my pockets and found that there were only 700 dollars left in my pocket, so I said, "It's only 700, see if you can ...... it." I really can't ask the fat man for three hundred.
But the maidservant snatched the money from my hand, and began to count it, and said as she counted it, "Hey, seven hundred is seven hundred!" After speaking, the maid continued: "This thing has to start from nearly three hundred years ago, the first generation of Lejia patriarch in Kangxi eight years to open a pharmacy, after Kangxi, Yongzheng, Qianlong III, the second generation of Lejia is highly valued by the Yongzheng Emperor, Yongzheng rewarded him with a lot of property, among which the treasures are countless, the ancestor in order not to let the descendants of the Lejia be confused by money, so these treasures are hidden, with those treasures buried together there is a shocking secret, before the death of the second generation of the patriarch, He built a golden hairpin, it is said that the clues to find treasures and secrets are on the golden hairpin, and the golden hairpin has become a token of the owner of the Lejia has been passed down until the golden hairpin was stolen two months ago! ”
After listening to this, I was shocked again in my heart, it turned out that the golden hairpin was so important to Lejia. At the same time, my heart was once again vigilant, if there were so many secrets hidden on the golden hairpin, then the eldest lady would not let me go so easily, if I were her, I would ...... Kill somebody to do away with a witness!
"I'm leaving!" After the maidservant had collected the money, she left with a happy face, and she was not afraid to tell me all these things. It can be seen that the three news she said are all news that everyone in Lejia knows, only a stupid Bai Tian like us who just came doesn't know, and he was cheated for 900 yuan in vain.
"This Lejia is not a good place, when we return to the house, we will obediently don't walk around in the house!" I said.
"Hmm!" Chen Jinghao: They obviously also think that this Lejia is not very normal.
As soon as I returned to the house on the front foot, a man on the back foot came to our room with five cups of tea and said, "Our second wife specially made some tea for the three of us, and I invite you two to taste it!" ”
"The tea made by the second wife?" I was stunned for a moment, the second wife is Le Hao's daughter-in-law, although she is slender and beautiful, but she has not said anything to us, how could the second wife suddenly remember to bring us tea?
The man said: "Yes, everyone in Yongle Mansion knows that our second wife has always loved tea, and the second wife only makes tea for the second young master and the master, that is, the third young master and the eldest young master have to ask the master to come forward in person if they want to drink the tea she makes, and the second wife can make tea for a few people, which is really rare." ”
When the man introduced, his face was full of smugness and he said.
"Oh, is it? Then I want to taste how this tea is different from other teas! "My sister grew up in Miaojiang since she was a child, and the people of Miaojiang are also very fond of tea.
Just when my sister was about to drink tea, I stretched out my hand to stop my sister and said, "Senior sister, don't drink it!" ”
With that, I picked up my tea and walked outside the door.
Under the bewildered gaze of these people, I grabbed a rooster and poured all the tea into the rooster's mouth. When he let go of his hand, the frightened rooster scurried around the house.
"Senior brother, what's wrong?" Xu asked in confusion.
I turned my head to look at the man, and when he saw this, sweat began to fall from his forehead, as if he was very scared.
Seeing him like this, I sneered in my heart, and sure enough, my guess was correct. There's definitely something wrong with the tea, otherwise the guy wouldn't have been so frightened when he saw me feed the tea into the's mouth.
Huairou opened her big curious eyes and stared closely at the big rooster running around the house, and began to run after the rooster, trying to catch him.
The fat man with the dust said with a smile on the side: "Huairou, if you can catch that, Uncle Fat will chop off your head and kick it for you!" ”
As soon as the fat man spoke, the rooster that was still alive suddenly fell to the ground, Huairou pounced, grabbed the rooster, and shouted excitedly: "I caught it, I caught it!" ”
Seeing this scene, the fat man's whole face was pulled down.
Chen Jinghao "brushed", took out a dagger from his pocket, put it on the fat man's neck, and shouted at Huairou: "Girl, uncle will cut a ball for you!" ”
", you're really here, how can you take what you say to a child seriously." The fat man's face turned pale with fright.
"Amma...... Little him, he died. At this time, Huairou looked at me with a sad face and said.
When the man saw this scene, his face turned extremely pale, and he turned around to run away.
I grabbed him, pulled him in front of me, and said, "You ...... run."
Before I could finish my sentence, the man was foaming at the mouth, his face was pale, and his body was constantly shaking.
"Senior brother, let go!" Promise quickly pulled my hand away, and under my gaze, the man turned into a puddle of blood and disappeared alive in front of us.
Seeing this scene, Chen Jinghao and Tongchen, who were still joking on the side, looked at this side with surprised faces. Both of them were dumbfounded.
"This ...... What's going on? The second wife wants to kill us? Tongchen said.
"It shouldn't be the second wife!" I thought carefully that if the eldest lady wanted to kill us, she would definitely not use her own hands, but would harm us in the name of the second wife, so that if the matter was revealed, she would also leave room for herself to maneuver.
But her decision was the stupidest of all, because as soon as I knew that she had murderous intentions towards me, and that she had done so, I would tell everyone about the golden hairpin in her hands.
"It wasn't the second wife who did it, who would have done it?" When Chen Jinghao heard my words, his face was extremely puzzled, and he asked.
I was just about to say that it was the eldest lady, when a rapid shout came from a distance: "Mr. Ye...... Mr. Ye! ”
When I heard the shout, I turned my head and saw the eldest lady rushing to me.
Seeing the eldest lady, I asked coldly, "Is there something wrong?" ”
The eldest lady said, "Mr. Ye, the second lady will send someone to bring you tea later, don't ...... You drank all the tea? The big lady with heavy makeup was halfway through her words, and she saw the empty teacup in my hand, and said with a look of shock on her face.
"Oh my God, Mr. Ye, this tea is poisonous, you actually drank it all!" Mrs. Big shouted loudly.
I looked at the eldest lady coldly and said, "You seem to be very happy?" ”
The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Ye, why do you say that?" Is it any good for me that you are dead, what am I going to be happy about! ”
I just said lightly, "I didn't drink your tea!" ”
"My tea?" The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, looked at me tightly, and said, "Are you suspicious that I gave you the tea?" "The service clip pounces.
"Isn't it?" I began to wonder, I was deliberately playing tricks on the eldest lady's words, if the tea was sent by the eldest wife, it would definitely not be the reaction just now, the eldest lady's reaction just now was very real, and the tea did not look like the eldest lady brought it.
The eldest lady said: "The second wife has always loved tea, and the tea she brews has always had a set, the tea fragrance is light and elegant, sweet but not greasy, it is impossible for anyone to imitate it, even if I want to frame the second wife, I will never use tea to frame it!" Because the tea is not brewed by the second wife, the people of Lejia will know it when they smell it! ”
"I drank the tea at that time, how did I smell it?" I said.
The eldest lady said: "Even after drinking the tea, the tea fragrance can be retained for three days, otherwise how could the master love Han Yue's tea?" ”
I was skeptical, and at this time, the eldest lady said again: "Mr. Ye, I know what you are thinking, I don't intend to harm you, because I need your help!" ”
"I help you, how can I help you?" Hearing the words of the eldest lady, I was confused and asked.
The eldest lady turned her head to look around, and after seeing that there were no outsiders around, she deliberately lowered her voice and said, "That's the case, I want you to help my husband become the head of the Lejia family!" ”
"How can we help your husband get on the throne?" Tongchen said in a loud voice.
The eldest lady was startled, and quickly glared at Tongchen, and said, "Be quiet, you want the whole world to know about you!" ”
The fat man shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent attitude, but his voice also lowered and said, "How can we help you?" ”
The eldest lady said: "That's the case, originally my husband was a concubine and the eldest son, and the position of the head of the Le family is also my husband's." But my husband is born stupid in medical skills, and he can't learn those cumbersome Chinese medicine, but he is a genius in medical skills, and he has been very familiar with those Chinese medicine materials since he was a child, and he has won the love of the master, and the master even passed on the Lejia acupuncture method that was only passed on to the head of the family to the second young master......"
As a fellow student of Chinese medicine, I know very well in my heart that even if Le Qing is the eldest son, if I don't know anything about Chinese medicine, I will never give him the position.
"If the second young master becomes the head of the family, my husband and I will really be finished, and then the heaven-given opportunity, who knows that the master's golden hairpin was stolen two months ago, and the master can't take out the golden hairpin, so he won't be sure of the head ......of the family so quickly," the eldest lady said.
I looked at the eldest lady with a puzzled look and asked, "Does this have anything to do with me?" ”
The eldest lady said: "Of course it matters, the master only has one daughter, that is, Le Ping'er, it can be said that Le Ping'er is the master's intimate little padded jacket, and the lord will ask Le Ping'er first for any major decisions!" So when choosing the head of the family, the first thing the master wants to ask for is Le Ping'er's opinion......" Speaking of this, the eldest lady's eyes were full of heat and looked at me, and said: "Think about it, you saved Le Ping'er thousands of miles away, Le Ping'er will definitely thank you very much when she wakes up, if you let Le Ping'er say good things to my husband in front of the master, isn't the position of the head of the Le family appropriate?" ”
"Tut-tut!" After listening to the fat woman's words, Xu Yu stood aside and said, "You women are really terrible animals, you all thought of coming so far!" ”
When Promise finished saying this, the room was silent, and Promise stared at us with a puzzled face, and said, "Why are you looking at me like this?" ”
"Please, little senior sister Ye Cheng, are you also a woman, okay?" Tongchen said with a helpless face.
Hearing Tongchen's words, Xu Yu reacted, coughed twice, and did not speak again.
The eldest lady turned her head to look at me again and said, "Mr. Ye, don't you just want the Zun Grade Bezoar Pill here?" If you help my husband become the head of the family smoothly, I, Wang Jinfeng, promise you that I will give you the Zun Grade Niu Huang Pill, what do you think? ”
After hearing the words of the eldest lady Wang Jinfeng, don't say it, I am really a little moved The ○-level bezoar pill is the treasure of Lejia's town store, and Lejia can't give it to me easily, and I can't steal and rob, it will ruin the reputation of my Ye family and the medicinal incense shop. But it's different if the head of the Lejia family handed it over to me personally, at least it can block the tongue outside, right?
Wang Jinfeng looked at me and said, "Although I, Wang Jinfeng, am a rough person, but I am also a happy person, you just give me a word, will this business succeed or not?" ”
"Yes, of course!" Without waiting for me to speak, the fat man hurriedly said: "Isn't it just to let Le Ping'er say a good word for your husband, it's not troublesome if you don't steal or rob, where is there such a good thing!" ”
I turned my head to look at the fat man and said, "You don't know what you said about this." After speaking, I looked at Wang Jinfeng and said, "Big lady, I just came to seek medical treatment, and I don't want to participate in the dispute between the head of your family, so forgive me for not being able to help you." ”
When the eldest lady heard my words, her face fell, and she was extremely ugly.
I added another sentence and said, "I won't help the second wife, about the golden hairpin, you can rest assured, I don't know what to do!" ”
When the eldest lady heard my words, she was relieved to leave.
Chen Jinghao looked at the back of the eldest lady leaving, turned his head and looked at me with puzzlement, and said: "Ye Cheng, I think what the fat man said this time is right, this matter can be described as a great benefit for us, why don't you agree to her?" ”
"Do you think things are really as simple as the eldest lady says? Once you get involved in the competition for the head of the Lejia family, there will be endless troubles, just like ...... Back then, Yang Min Yang was involved in the battle for the throne! ”
