Chapter 4: A Lesson for Miss Six

At night, a heart-rending ghost cry suddenly came from the courtyard of the third lady of Nangong Mansion, and the specific sound came from the room of the sixth lady Nangong Yan. The first to hear it was naturally the third lady, who hurriedly rushed into Nangong Yan's room with the maid, and found that her daughter was sitting on the ground, burying her head in her knees and hugging her body and crying.

The third lady motioned to the maid to help the sixth lady up, but before the maid stepped forward and touched the corner of her clothes, she shouted: "Don't touch me, get out!" Get out of here! ”

The third lady thought that she was trying to play with the eldest lady's temper, and said slightly angrily: "Yan'er, don't be unreasonable!" Anyway, you are also the sixth lady of the dignified Nangong Mansion, what kind of body is it to sit on the ground like this, do you want others to see it as a joke? Quickly stand up and speak. ”

Nangong Yan seemed to hear the dissatisfaction in the third lady's tone, calmed down her emotions a little, and continued to bury her head and choke up: "Mother, Yan'er can't see people now, you quickly tell them all to go out." ”

The third lady seemed to notice that the situation was wrong, and gave an order, and the maids immediately withdrew. It wasn't until the third lady was left alone in the room that Nangong Yan slowly raised her head, and when the third lady saw it, she was so frightened that she took several steps back!

After all, she was the lady in the mansion, and she had also seen some big winds and waves, so she quickly calmed down, stepped forward to help Nangong Yan sit on the bed, and asked with concern: "Yan'er, tell Wei Niang, what's going on with this pockmarked face, did you eat the wrong thing or use the wrong rouge gouache." ”

Nangong Yan thought about it, what she ate and used was no different from usual. After looking at the sky as usual, it was time to sleep, so she asked the maid to prepare for her to wash, and she sat in front of the mirror to pick up her jewelry, but suddenly saw a pockmarked face printed in the mirror, thinking that her eyes were flowering, but after a few more careful looks, she found that this was her face, and instantly threw away the mirror, and at the same time the person was frightened and screamed instinctively......

The third lady's eyebrows were solemn, since they are all normal, could it be that other ladies are doing it, after thinking about it for a while, she thinks it is impossible, after all, she has been with those two ladies for so many years, everyone is well water and does not interfere with river water, and Yan'er and their daughter have had a good relationship since childhood, so there is no motivation to do such a thing.

Nangong Yue suddenly remembered something, interrupted the third lady's train of thought, and immediately said: "Mother, I went to the seventh sister today, I still remember that the seventh sister was weird today, and took the initiative to hold my hand, mother, I won't be infected by her." After saying that, he cried sadly.

When the third lady heard this, she suddenly woke up like she was struck by thunder, it turned out that it was Miss Xingqi, the broom in the side courtyard, who was in trouble, and the third lady thought fiercely in her heart: If her Yan'er was really infected by her, she would not be allowed to feel better! But now the most important thing is to find a doctor.

The third lady hurriedly got up and walked out, and when she arrived at the door, she suddenly turned to Nangong Yan'er and said, "Yan'er, you are not allowed to go anywhere in the room now, my mother will go to the doctor immediately, I will take care of everything for you, remember not to let the third person know about it." ”

Nangong Yan seemed to know the seriousness of the matter and immediately agreed.

The first rays of the sun shone into the window in the morning, and Nangong Yi'er also slept until she woke up naturally, and she slept really soundly this night. As soon as she got up and put on her shoes, the door was knocked open, and the maid Xiaodong hurriedly ran to Nangong Yi'er's bed, and saw that Nangong Yi'er had woken up, and said excitedly: "Miss, you must not know, Miss Six was sick last night, and the doctor said that it would not be better for three days, which is also her retribution, who called her Miss Lao, it is really happy." ”

Nangong Yi'er replied casually: "Oh." ”

Xiao Dong was strange: "Miss, aren't you happy?" ”

Nangong Yi'er looked at the cute Xiao Dong and said with a smile: "Of course I'm happy, Xiao Dong, you wait and prepare, how about we invite the nurse and the thunder steward to have a barbecue together in the evening." ”

Xiao Dong asked, "Miss, what is barbecue?" ”

Nangong Yi'er rolled her eyes, only to know that there is no such term in this era, so she introduced it to Xiaodong and said: "Barbecue, in short, is to take raw vegetables or meat and put it on the fire to roast, and watch your young lady do it at night to understand." ”

This time, Xiao Dong understood and asked excitedly: "What does the young lady need, Xiao Dong will prepare." ”

Nangong Yi'er said to her: "Prepare more charcoal, iron shelves, vegetables and meat, followed by spices and the like, take them back and we will make them together." ”

Xiao Dong happily answered and ran out.

Nangong Yi'er recalled that Xiao Dong told her about the sixth sister's illness just now, of course she wouldn't be surprised, this was what she expected.

Because only she knows that the sixth sister is not sick at all, she was poisoned by her, and now she should be a pockmarked face like her, and she can't go out for three days because the effect of the medicine is only so long, and it is certain that the third lady does not want others to find out what her daughter looks like now.

Because of the limited conditions, this measles herb was finally collected by Xiaodong from the nurse and the detonator. Otherwise, the sixth sister who pushed her into the water would not be able to go out for a month.

However, if the doctor could see it, it would really be a sign of poisoning, and Nangong Yi'er would really take him. With this level of medical skills in ancient times, it was at most considered to be one of the pollen allergies, which belonged to skin allergies caused by changes in nature, so how could you think that this was a phenomenon of poisoning? So when she heard Xiaodong say that the sixth sister couldn't go out for three days, she understood that the doctor must have misdiagnosed it as a pollen allergy.

How could the ancients here know how powerful modern people are, because modern people have the ability to change some of the changes in nature. It's like she just used modern medical techniques to do a little processing, so that the doctor could misdiagnose it, and getting modern times was just a matter of an antidote, and the skin immediately returned to its original state within half an hour. So there will be no suspicion on her.

However, Nangong Yi'er is not most concerned about this now, but to find out the route from this backyard to the house, and by the way, see what is in this bamboo forest. Suddenly, people have gone to the bottom of the fence to observe, to see if there is an exit, after looking for a long time, they found that there is not even a mouse hole, it is really well defended.

Visually inspecting the two-meter-high wall, Nangong Yi'er thought that the most direct way was to climb up, but I heard Xiaodong say that there are more people patrolling during the day than at night, and it is strange that you really want to climb up without being discovered, and then you will have to push a lot of trouble, it seems that you can only smash a hole from below, but if you smash it, it will inevitably make the wall above have the possibility of collapsing, which will be more eye-catching, and there is only one way to think about it, that is, to outwit, that is, to let the wall break a hole by itself, Nangong Yier is already confident.

Now it's just waiting for Xiao Dong to come back, after all, to find the crystal key, she has to leave the house, and she basically has no clues at all, not to mention that she doesn't have enough silver taels on her body now. Whether ancient or modern, it is difficult to move an inch without money. She had to go out to find business opportunities first and understand what kind of business the people outside were doing.

After almost half an hour, Xiaodong came back, followed by the nurse, both of whom were full of things in their hands. Although the nurse had heard Xiaodong say it, she was still a little puzzled and asked Nangong Yi'er: "Miss Seven, I know that this charcoal is used for baking, but how can I get something to eat on this iron shelf?" Xiao Dong also craned his neck curiously and waited to listen.

Nangong Yi'er smiled mysteriously and said, "You will naturally understand at night, and now keep it secret." ”

Xiao Dong pulled his neck in disappointment, and thought in his heart: Miss is good or bad, I know that I have an appetite, but thinking that I can eat the barbecue that Miss said at night, Xiao Dong should be energetic.

The nurse smiled dotingly at Nangong Yi'er and said: "Then the nurse is waiting for Miss Seven's barbecue in the evening, the nurse has to be busy now, so she can arrange to come over at night, go first." ”

Nangong Yi'er suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly called the nurse and said, "Nurse, do you know where there is a sulfur stone." ”

The nurse thought for a while and said, "There seems to be one over there at the thunder housekeeper, I'll ask him later, but what does Miss Seven want the sulfur stone for?" ”

Nangong Yi'er made up nonsense: "Recently, I have been bitten by mosquitoes at night, and Yi'er has read some books, and it is written that sulfur stones can repel insects, so if you want to get some, it is enough to get five or six catties." ”

The nurse thought strangely, can the sulfur stone repel insects, why didn't she know, but Miss Seven would never lie to her, it must be uncomfortable to be bitten by mosquitoes at night, so she will make this decision.

The nurse happily agreed, and Nangong Yi'er called Xiaodong to accompany the nurse to get it. Start preparing for the barbecue in the evening. Looking at the iron shelf that the nurse said, although there is no modern barbecue to do the standard, it can still be used if it is improvised. Looking at the dishes they brought over, they had to be washed first, and they started to act with their hands and feet in mind.

After another half an hour, Nangong Yi'er cleaned and packed all the materials, and then the bamboo skewers were missing. At this time, the maid Xiaodong came back with a bag of things in a sweat, sitting on the ground panting, as if she was tired, and Xiaodong was thinking about what had just happened at the moment, and the nurse asked the thunder housekeeper to help her bring these sulfur stones to the bamboo forest garden, but she didn't listen, saying that this little thing didn't need to trouble the thunder housekeeper, and the thunder housekeeper also had a lot of things, thinking that this thing was not heavy and agreed.

Who knew that Xiao Dong was tired before he was halfway there, didn't he say that there were five or six pounds, how did Xiao Dong feel heavier and heavier! Gritted his teeth, and finally insisted on bringing it back, Xiao Dong was tired and almost lay down, and he really regretted not listening to the nurse's words, if only he let the Lei housekeeper help her bring it over, who called himself reckless.

Nangong Yi'er hurriedly ran over, opened the bag and looked at it and smelled it, it was a sulfur stone, yes, it was mentioned and found that the weight was wrong, it was estimated that there were ten catties, and said to the dedicated Xiaodong: "Xiaodong, it's hard work, it's definitely not easy to bring back this ten catties of sulfur stone, you rest first, and then it's your young lady's business." ”

As soon as Xiao Dong heard the word "ten catties", she almost fainted, she said, how can five or six catties be so heavy, it must have been played by the nurse and the thunder housekeeper, the two of them are really annoying, they always tease her to play, and they must ask the young lady to seek justice for her at night, Xiao Dong thought depressedly.

And Nangong Yi'er had already transferred the sulfur stone under the wall and began to ignite the sulfur stone. Almost an hour has passed, and the sulfuric acid has finally been refined, but the concentration is not high, and the corrosion is naturally not strong, but looking at the amount just refined, Nangong Yi'er estimated the data, and was confident that it would be absolutely no problem to open a one-meter-high hole.

So the sulfuric acid was hurriedly poured on the painted wall, and at this rate of corrosion it should take seven or eight hours to have an effect, and the current hour is estimated to be more than eleven o'clock, and it should be completed at seven or eight o'clock in the evening.

There is only one thing to do at the moment, and that is to wait.
