Chapter Eighty-Six: Suspicion of the Second Lady Again
Chapter Eighty-Six: Suspicion of the Second Lady Again
Everyone in the hall was slightly nervous, not nervous, but a natural reaction, and they all wanted to know who had a cold that day.
Too much time has passed, and the eldest sister was still in infancy at that time, and now don't say that I remember who had a cold that was not serious, that is, no one can remember whether I had a cold back then.
Shiqin didn't look up, she lowered her head but her voice was unusually clear: she also knew that everyone in the hall was listening to her carefully, and it was the first time she had been so concerned in so many years.
"At that time, there were not many people who had a cold, but some were too heavy to get out of the room, and some were too soft, and their voices did not change much, so that the slaves and maids could hear who it was; Onlyβ"
Her voice was a little long, and the people in the hall were even breathing lightly, and they were all listening to the name of the lyre with their ears open.
"Only less 'milk' 'milk';" She raised her head sharply, pointed at Ding, and then pointed at the sixth lady and the second lady: "The cold of the sixth lady and the second lady is not serious, but it is not light. β
The sixth lady saw that Shiqin was pointing at her, and she couldn't turn around, she pointed to her nose: "You mean me?" No matter what she wanted, she never thought that this matter would be brought up to her: "How could I harm my eldest sister." β
The second lady immediately followed and said: "That's it, that's it, how can my sixth brother and sister and I harm the eldest sister." β
Ding looked at the red sleeves and said to Mrs. Shen: "Mrs. Tai, I won't, I won't harm the eldest sister." β
Mrs. Tai glanced at the three of them and looked at Shiqin: "You also said that it was at the turn of winter and spring, and it was not only the second lady and the other three who had a cold in the house, why do you think they are suspicious?" β
Shiqin took it for granted: "The other people's illnesses are either very serious or very light, only the voices of the three of them have changed at that time, so that people can't hear the original voice." β
Mrs. Shen glanced at the three of them again, shook her head lightly and said nothing; She didn't even need to ask the three of them, because based on what Shiqin said, she couldn't get into the sin of the three people at all.
And it's easy for three people to say justification.
Red Sleeves thought for a while and said, "Did you notice the people in the house after you heard the original four young 'milk' and 'milk' talking to people that day?" β
Shiqin shook her head: "No; On that day, the slave maid went to the sixth lady to deliver something, and knew that the sixth lady had a cold; The next day, I learned that the second lady, Ding Shao's "milk", "milk" and others had a cold; Well, at that time, there was also Jiang Shao's "milk" and "milk", but she was too sick to leave the house, so the slave maid always thought that she didn't say anything after ......"
The sixth lady's face turned red, but she did not continue to argue: there may be that person among the three, or there may not be that personβit all depends on God's will, if the person does not get better or worse for two days, then that person is either the second lady or Ding.
However, based on Shiqin's words alone, she is the most suspicious; The sixth lady did not defend because she didn't want the real bad guy to take the opportunity to get out.
Red Sleeves glanced at the Sixth Lady, although she really wanted to say that it was impossible for the Sixth Lady: if it was only said that the Sixth Lady was alone, then what about the Second Lady? It's all the same aunt, she is too kind of to say anything about one or the other, and she also makes the second lady understand in her heart that she has already doubted her.
She didn't say anything in the end, just shook her head like Mrs. Shen.
After Shiqin's words had been finished and there was nothing more to say, Mrs. Shen asked Laiwang to bring someone to send her to the government; She was convicted of being a fugitive slave and was finally hanged.
The subordinates of the Shen Mansion are all vigilant in their hearts, especially some old people who have repeatedly reminded those children and nephews who are disobedient and easy to drill camps: Be a down-to-earth person, otherwise there will be no life if you don't have it; You can't escape, and your own master will not let go of the fugitive slave, nor will she let go of the servant who has made a big mistake.
As a result, the Shen Mansion was quiet for a minute or two, and many servants consciously stopped talking nonsense and no longer drilled behind their backs; And only the person who wants to act in secret: recently she wants to find someone to do something, and she has to weigh it again, and she doesn't dare to casually find those chess pieces that she has already buried.
Because she didn't know if there would be other thoughts in those people's hearts after the incident of serving the qin; She didn't want to take any chances, so a lot of things had to slow down.
Shen Laozu obviously felt that the servants and women were more serious than before, and praised Mrs. Shen very seriously; Mrs. Shen couldn't tell Shen Lao Zu what the cause of the incident was, for fear that she would be angry again, so she could only accept Shen Lao Zu's praise with a slight blush.
It was already about noon when she sent away the waiter, and Mrs. Shen asked everyone to go back to their rooms for dinner, and she left Mrs. Shen and the red-sleeved couple to eat together: there were some things that they had to discuss well.
Because there was no one else in the room, Red Sleeves said directly: "I think it is absolutely impossible for the sixth aunt to do such a thing, and it is impossible for Ding's sister-in-law to do it." β
Mrs. Shen nodded: "The Ding family is only the surviving son of the concubine, and the mother's family is not prominent; Regardless of who she is, she has no one outside the house who can help her, and the hundred clothes are something she can't find. β
Mrs. Shen also nodded, and she looked at the red sleeves: "Do you think your second aunt is possible?" β
Red Sleeves tilted his head and shook his head after thinking slightly: "It shouldn't be, right?" The second aunt's "sex" is here, and she has always loved us very much, and she won't harm the eldest sister. β
Although she denied it, there was great uncertainty in her words; Mrs. Shen was also silent and didn't say anything: there are indeed some difficult things about the second lady, but there is no evidence to say what happened to the second lady.
Mrs. Shen pondered for a while and said, "Don't say 'messy' if you have no evidence, so as not to make Mrs. Chu think that we are bullying people; Mrs. Chu once saved your second uncle, so it's better not to 'mess' your mouth if you don't have any credentials. β
Red Sleeves and Shen Miaoge looked at each other and didn't speak; And Mrs. Shen asked: "Do you just throw away this matter?" β
"Who said they were going to throw their hands away?" Mrs. Shen glanced at Mrs. Shen: "It's not easy to speak because it's not unfounded, but it's always a little suspicious, and the major matters related to our family's heirs can't be sloppy, you secretly ......" She was not confused, so she thought too much.
Shen Miaoge used to have a strange poison in his body, and it has always been extremely difficult for Shen Fu to grow up, especially in the long house: there are always more than a dozen brothers and younger brothers from Shen Miaoge's concubine, but Shen Miaoge was the only one when the red sleeves of the long house came in when he married in, and he was also a person who did not live long.
And later, Shen Miaoge's younger brother Shen Chen was also poisoned and victimized several times, but because Shen Miaoge had been poisoned, he took precautions tighter, and calling a doctor was not a doctor, so he could save the day every time; Later, Mrs. Shen and Red Sleeves picked and chose the people in Shen Chen's courtyard, and there was an ink doctor, so Shen Chen was never poisoned again.
However, Shen Chen is not without other dangers, he has been since he was a child, let's do the math: once in the house, he fell into the lake once, fell from a tree once, almost fell into the well once, and fell heavily twice in the rain and snow - both broke legs, feet or arms.
If it weren't for the few martial arts girls who Red Sleeves gave him, it would not be as simple as breaking his legs and feet.
There are a lot of things to talk about, but it is also the total number of Shen Chen in more than ten years, and every time something looks like an accident, and nothing can be found when you check it; Mrs. Shen and the others had already held their breath, but they couldn't find the person who did it; Once, there were still people who blamed Shen Chen on the red sleeves, but they didn't succeed.
Therefore, now that Mrs. Shen heard Shiqin's words, she immediately remembered a lot of old things, and of course she would not treat this matter as a trivial matter.
Mrs. Shen replied and relieved herself, she had always wanted to find the person who did it secretly; She thought, not only her, but also the second lady, the sixth lady, the seventh lady, etc., also want to find that person, right?
Because the second lady never conceived again because she had a miscarriage for the second time; And the sixth lady and the seventh lady either had a miscarriage or their son died early, which one of them didn't grit his teeth at the person in the dark?
Thinking of this, Mrs. Shen suddenly muttered, "It's unlikely that the second brother and sister are unlikely, right?" Speaking of which, she should hate the person who did the black hand the most. β
Red Sleeves didn't understand, but Shen Miaoge also remembered about the second lady's miscarriage because of her mother's words, and he whispered to Red Sleeves what happened, and Red Sleeves was silent.
In the afternoon, the Shen Mansion did not gather again to discuss the morning's affairs, because Mrs. Sheeran visited again.
Mrs. Xilan still came to see the eldest sister, but she brought a snack to Shen Laozu: the same dim sum that Shen Laozu ate in Nanjing when he was a child - now the chefs in Shen's mansion can also make it, and it is also sold in the shops outside; However, it is not as authentic as the dim sum brought by Mrs. Sheeran.
Of course, Red Sleeves wanted to accompany Mrs. Xilan, Shen Laozu didn't want to taste Mrs. Xilan's snacks, but under the amusement of Red Sleeves, she still tasted it, and then she was slightly stunned: it was the taste she thought about day and night.
Shen Laozu couldn't help but praise twice, and Mrs. Xilan humbled a few words, which happened to bring out some interesting things about Shen Laozu's hometown in the south, which caused Shen Laozu to open the conversation.
Red Sleeves didn't say anything more, and Mrs. Xilan and Shen Laozu spoke: she knew that the dim sum brought by Mrs. Xilan was famous, and she didn't want to have such a miraculous effect; Mrs. Xilan is really a good match, and she is a perfect match for Fifth Master Shen.
Mrs. Xilan didn't mention a word about the fifth master, but just said something about Shen Laozu's hometown, and she didn't sit for a long time, and when she was happy, she took out a handkerchief: "This is a relative of mine who came from over there to bring it, and it is embroidered with the flowers that Shen Laozu said, don't you look like it?" β
The red sleeves looked over, and the silk material used in the autumn and winter of the handkerchief was not very good, so it could only be said that it was good, but the weaving method was something that the red sleeves had never seen.
Shen Laozu was excited when she took it, she hadn't seen this kind of silk for many years, and she hadn't seen the flower. Remember the permanent address of Q Pig Literature Station: for easy reading next time!
