Chapter 394: Taste, When Did It Begin?
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Tai asked in surprise, she would be most concerned about her own affairs, and she didn't care about asking Wei Yuewu any more.
"Not only Mrs. Tai's medicine has problems, but even Aunt Dong's medicine has problems." Mama Hong was followed by Mama Dong, who was still holding a medicine jar in her hand, and hurriedly stepped forward.
"What, the concubine's medicine jar also has it?" Aunt Dong seemed to know the news, so she was so frightened that she took two steps back, and almost didn't stop, but fortunately, a maid ring beside her helped her and didn't let her fall.
"Concubine...... The concubine and the lady have offended someone, and they are ...... I want the lives of my concubine and Mrs. Tai so much! Aunt Dong muttered to herself, but her eyes fell on Wei Yuewu, and her suspicion was obvious.
After Fang Cai's dispute, and then hearing Aunt Dong's words, Mrs. Tai's eyes also fell on Wei Yuewu, and she felt that Wei Yuewu was indeed very suspicious.
Wei Yuewu smiled coldly, sure enough, Aunt Dong had also prepared for a long time, the medicine was originally placed in her own Chinese medicine, and then poured ink, as for Mrs. Tai's, of course, she did it herself, and poured Aunt Dong's medicine into Mrs. Tai's medicine jar.
The two medicine jars were very close, and the kitchen was now in a mess, and no one would notice that Shu Fei had ever touched these two medicine jars.
So Aunt Dong couldn't have imagined that her own medicinal juice would be poured into Mrs. Tai's medicine jar!
"See if anyone has done it?" Mrs. Tai asked sharply.
"Mrs. Tai is very messy in the kitchen these days, Miss Fourth always comes to eat, sometimes it is not good enough, and she specially asked the kitchen to make a few more portions, pick the best one to send to Miss Four, the big kitchen is very busy, and almost no one notices that someone has touched the medicine jar."
Mama Hong smiled bitterly and said that the big kitchen was originally very organized, but since Mrs. Da ordered them to add vegetables to the fourth lady, what is good is there to be close to the fourth lady, and the fourth lady is busy.
And he was arrogant in supporting this, supporting that, and turning around one by one at the command of the people in the kitchen, and no one would notice what was going on under the porch.
Even the two little girls who boiled the medicine were sometimes instructed to do something.
Wei Qiufu? Mrs. Tai thought about it for a while, and then got rid of Wei Qiufu, Wei Qiufu wants to enter the prince's East Palace, and if she wants to get out of the prince's East Palace, she must rely on the Huayang Hou Mansion.
So it's impossible for Wei Qiufu to do something unfavorable to herself!
"Bring it and I'll see it!" Doctor Ming said to Mama Dong who was holding the medicine jar, and Mama Dong sent the medicine jar to Dr. Ming as ordered, and Dr. Ming took it, sniffed it, and nodded: "There is indeed the smell of five drum grass in it, and this taste is more than that of Mrs. Tai." ”
Although Aunt Dong pretended to be delicate, she was secretly proud in her heart, how could there be not many? Originally, other Chinese medicines were used to match this flavor of Wugu grass, and when it was almost fried, no one paid attention to it, and poured ink, anyway, the taste of ink was fragrant to readers, but others also felt stinky.
Especially those people in the kitchen, who are almost illiterate, where can they distinguish clearly.
"Concubine...... There are more concubines than Mrs. Tai? There was a look of horror on her face, tears fell down one by one, and she couldn't cover it with a handkerchief, and said sadly, "Master Hou, the concubine has not offended anyone, why do people still hate the concubine so much, and they still look like they want the concubine to die." ”
"In the past, it was good to go back to the house, but I didn't expect that not only did so many things happen this year, but also someone poisoned the medicine of Mrs. Tai and her concubine, which ...... What resentment it must be to do such a thing! ”
Aunt Dong cried as she spoke, but the spearhead in her words was directly Wei Yuewu.
In previous years, there was nothing wrong, but this year there was an accident, the only difference between this year and previous years is that Wei Yuewu entered Beijing, even though Wei Luowen didn't believe that his daughter would do such a thing, but he still looked at Wei Yuewu twice.
Mrs. Tai's eyes were already sharp, and her hand slapped heavily on the table, her face sinking like water: "Dancing girl, what's going on?" ”
In response to Mrs. Tai's reprimand, Wei Yuewu was prepared, raised her head unhurriedly, and her eyes rolled slightly: "Grandmother, do you think this matter has something to do with me?" ”
This question is very direct, and even if the direct Mrs. Tai is angry, she can't take it.
"Grandmother, can you find out where this medicine came from? This kind of medicine shouldn't come into the house for no reason, right? Ask again, is this smell familiar to the people in the kitchen? Since the smell is so strong, it is impossible that no one on the kitchen side has never smelled it. ”
"Come on, go to the kitchen and bring a few people." These words reminded Wei Luowen, and he turned to the little servant behind him and commanded.
The little girl ran out in response, and after a while, he brought two mothers-in-law and two maids over.
They are all rough mothers-in-law and maids who serve their men in the kitchen.
This one, to Aunt Dong's surprise, she pinched the handkerchief and rubbed it hard, the expression on her face was a little stiff, she thought that Wei Yuewu would go directly to find out who bought the medicine, she had already dealt with it there, this medicine was really not sent by herself to buy it, she was really not afraid of people to check.
The medicine jar opened, and the smell rushed out.
"This smell slave has been smelling for days, not today."
"It's not today, the slave also thinks it's been a few days!"
"There must have been days, that ...... It's the smell of ink. ”
"Right...... Even the smell of ink has this, too! ”
Yahuan, the mother-in-law said one after another, complemented each other, and almost without interrogation, they explained things clearly.
"Grandmother, I was still in the palace a few days ago!" Wei Yuewu said lightly, her eyes fell on Mrs. Tai's face lightly, and she smiled slightly at Mrs. Tai.
There was no malice at all in such a faint smile, but it was just explaining Mrs. Fang's words that scolded her, but it made Mrs. Tai's face blush inexplicably, and she felt a little annoyed and angry.
Since it was a few days ago, of course, it can't have anything to do with Wei Yuewu, not to mention that Wei Yuewu only entered Beijing, let's just say that she lived in the palace at that time, and it was impossible for her hands and eyes to reach such a point, and she actually drugged the house without knowing it.
"Ink, what ink?" Mrs. Tai was reluctant to mention Fang Cai's matter again, so she directly changed the topic.
"Mrs. Yutai, it is the ink that Mr. Feng Shui wants to draw charms." A mother-in-law seems to be the head of these few, and she took the initiative to come out and show her way.
Hearing her mother-in-law mention the ink, Aunt Dong was secretly anxious on the side, she knew very well that from the Chinese medicine to the ink, how to look at this matter is very strange.
"Go, get some ink too!" Wei Luowen calmly ordered the little guy behind him again, but after thinking about it, he stopped the little guy again, "Invite Mr. Feng Shui over too." ”
The little guy ran out quickly.
As soon as the mother-in-law said this, Mrs. Tai finally remembered that if she wanted to seal Qin Xinrui's yard, it was useless to just build a wall outside, and she had to suppress it with a charm, and Mr. Feng Shui did tell her so at that time.
But later, after I told Aunt Dong to deal with it with all the powers, I forgot about it.
"Nonsense, how can there be such a smell in the ink, it should be the smell of ink, right?" Aunt Dong was about to speak, but was preempted by Wei Yuewu.
As soon as she said this, Aunt Dong was inconvenient to say more, although she gritted her teeth secretly, she felt that the problem was not very big, as long as the person who watched feng shui did not admit it at that time, it would be difficult for Wei Yuewu to make him bend into tricks.
"Back to Miss Liu, the smell of that ink is very strong, just like this medicine, at that time, Aunt Dong's medicine was fried on the side, and the slaves and maids thought that it was the taste of Chinese medicine mixed with ink, so it would become so weird!" Seeing Wei Yuewu asking, the mother-in-law replied again.
"When did Aunt Dong's Chinese medicine be fried?" Wei Yuewu continued to ask.
"The slave and maid knew that it was the same day as the ink, and the slave and maid also cleaned up two pieces of land under the corridor at that time, the big one was ink, and the small one was decocted by Aunt Dong, and Aunt Dong ordered it to be placed under the corridor." A girl thought about it, kowtowed and replied respectfully.
"Mrs. Tai's medicine and Aunt Dong's medicine are placed under the corridor, which is also what Aunt Dong means!" The other mother-in-law added.
"Concubine, this is afraid of the smell of ink!" Although Aunt Dong panicked, she answered calmly, she believed that the person who watched feng shui would not leak his mouth, and this matter should not be related to herself anyway.
Anyway, his medicine was also put into five drums, which can be regarded as a proof of his innocence.
Therefore, she is really not afraid of how Wei Yuewu tosses......
Thinking of this, Aunt Dong glared at Mama Dong angrily and said, "Mama Dong, you are all dealing with my medicine, how did you get it like this, you didn't even know if you were drugged." ”
Mama Dong understood, and immediately called Qu Lai: "Auntie, the slave maid is really doing this with all her heart, the ink and Chinese medicine, the taste is strong, and the slave and maid let people put down the porch at that time, because they were afraid that people would be smoked, who would have thought that such a thing would happen." "This is what Aunt Winter originally handed over to her.
"Mama Dong, why didn't you pay more attention at that time." Aunt Dong's face was annoyed, as if it was really because Mama Dong was not dedicated that people had a chance to take advantage of it.
"Auntie, the slave is really staring at this matter, but who would have thought that there would be people with hands and eyes to do things so well." Mama Dong also cried, and very skillfully turned the spearhead to Wei Yuewu, if you want to have hands and eyes in this house, of course, it can only be the master!
And at the moment, it seems that the most contradictory thing with Aunt Dong is not Wei Yuewu!
At this moment, the door opened, and a few people came in......
