Chapter 10 Avoiding the Child's Decoction
The maid beside her looked at Su Nian's appearance like this, and persuaded in a low voice: "Second lady, forget it, it's not worth getting angry with a disaster star like her! ”
As soon as the maid spoke, the two ladies slowly came back to their senses, but they didn't seem to be relieved, and said angrily: "That's it? How can it be so easy! I heard that you are very close to Chi Ning's fox charmer, don't you have learned all her enchanting techniques! Today, Mrs. Ben is in a good mood, so I will teach you what is the etiquette, righteousness and shame that you should learn!"
After that, he raised his hand again and prepared to hit someone.
When the second lady's hand was falling, it stopped in mid-air.
Su Nian raised his head in disbelief, and the three of them looked together, but it was Zhang Yunyu who grabbed the fallen hand.
Zhang Yunyu slowly pulled the hand raised by the second lady down before letting go, the brilliance of his eyes flowed, his gaze lightly brushed Su Nian, and then he smiled and said: "Second lady, why are you so angry? You and the fifth lady belong to my father's concubines, why bother each other? Moreover, these five ladies have just started, and you are bullying people in public, are you not afraid of being laughed at? If my father knows, according to his temper, I am afraid that everyone will not have a good time!"
The second lady Li Jiaojiao is twenty-eight years old this year, married into Zhang's mansion for ten years, because of her outstanding appearance and good at singing and dancing, she is also very favored by Zhang Yuanluo, but her temperament is extremely arrogant and invincible, and she doesn't take people seriously on weekdays.
Li Jiaojiao turned her head, glanced at Su Nian in a strange way, and said leisurely: "Yo!
Zhang Yunyu leaned over and said, "Second lady, can you sell Yunyu a thin noodle?"
No matter how presumptuous Li Jiaojiao is, she will not fail to give Zhang Yunyu this face, after all, he is Zhang Yuanluo's favorite son, and he has no children and no daughters, so in the long run, he can't be offended.
"Come on, young master, it's up to you to let her go today. He turned to look at Su Nian again, his eyebrows and eyes were full of fierce power: "However, what about you, you have to be careful when you speak in the future, if you let Mrs. Ben meet again, it will definitely not make you feel better." Hmph, let's go!"
The backs of the two of them gradually drifting apart are like a clear moon lost on the lakeside, high and cold, belching!
Su Nian thanked Zhang Yunyu softly, and turned around to leave, but was grabbed by Zhang Yunyu's wrist.
Zhang Yunyu gently brushed away the long hair on Su Nian's sideburns, and said slowly: "Come, I'll take a look." ”
A bright red palm print had already appeared on Su Nian's face, which showed that the slap just now was not light.
"Come with me!"
"Huh?"
......
Opening the medicine box, Zhang Yunyu hurriedly poured it for a long time, before taking out a small bottle of potion, walked up to Su Nian happily, dipped the potion in the cotton cloth, and carefully applied it to the injured part, and its movements were soft and fine: "I was very naughty when I was a child, every time I was beaten by my father, my mother would wipe this for me, and the swelling would go down the next day, very fast." ”
Su Nian was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Oh! Thank you, eldest young master......"
Zhang Yunyu comforted while carefully rubbing the medicine: "You are really, my father's ladies are not fuel-efficient lamps, usually, you can avoid it as much as possible! Why bother to be bored?"
"I see!"
"Okay, Fifth Madam, the weather has been getting cooler recently, so you can go back and rest first! Zhang Yunyu seems to have a playful face at all times, but it is rare to hear such serious words from him.
It's the first time in a long time that I've heard someone call herself Fifth Lady, but Su Nian doesn't like this title very much: "Young Master, you still call me Su Nian directly!" Fifth Lady, it sounds really awkward. ”
Zhang Yunyu smiled slyly, and his eyes brightened a little: "Haha, no matter how awkward you are, you will get used to it in the future." In this way, I will still call you Miss Su in the future!"
"I have to go back, thank you for today. ”
"What's polite, didn't I say it? In the future, as long as you are in Zhangfu, you can come to me for anything. ”
Su Nian lowered his head, his face flushed slightly, and he ran out of the door with a little shy and shy steps.
......
Another day, it has been a long time since the meal, but there is still no one to bring dinner, the hungry Su Nian had to leave for the kitchen by himself, at this hour, the workers who want to come to the kitchen have already rested, and I only hope that there will be some leftover steamed buns to fill the stomach.
But as soon as he arrived at the door of the kitchen, he caught a glimpse of the figure floating in the house, Su Nian held his breath, did not dare to move, and secretly paced to the window on the side of the kitchen, pulling out a gap little by little.
Just about to peep, but suddenly someone tightly covered his mouth from behind, Su Nian wanted to shout but couldn't make a sound.
The familiar gentle voice whispered in his ear: "Miss Su, it's me, Xi Ting!"
Zhang Xiting?...... What the?
Su Nian calmed down and stopped struggling, and Zhang Xiting slowly let go of his hand.
Su Nian turned his head and glared at Zhang Xiting fiercely, Zhang Xiting trembled, as if a child who had made a mistake had been caught. Although I was curious why Zhang Xiting appeared here so late, at this time, the situation in the kitchen seemed to be more attractive.
He pouted at Zhang Xiting, and then turned his head again.
Through the gap between the windows, Su Nian saw that the man in the kitchen took out a small packet of white powder from his sleeve and carefully sprinkled it into the white fungus bird's nest soup simmering slowly on the stove.
She's not ...... Poisoning!
Su Nian grabbed Zhang Xiting's wrist in fear, and the more she grabbed it, the more vigorously she grabbed it, and the nervousness and fear were vividly expressed in her.
Soon, the man looked around and hurried away, so skillful that he seemed to be a habitual offender.
Su Nian thought about all kinds of situations, but when he looked back, Zhang Xiting didn't have any reaction, but seemed to know everything that happened inside, Su Nian doubted: "Do you know this person inside?"
Zhang Xiting didn't say a word, pulled Su Nian with his backhand and quietly left the kitchen, trotting all the way to the backyard.
Along the way, Su Nian was not less cranky.
Why did he pull himself away? Could it be that he was an accomplice, if that was the case, then he should be worried about himself, and he had broken his plot, and if he was impulsive, what would it be good to kill people and kill him?
Su Nian's face turned pale, and he took a few steps back timidly, and said tremblingly: "You, what do you want to do?"
Zhang Xiting's phoenix eyes lowered, and he said strangely: "What's wrong with you?"
After thinking about it, Su Nian still felt that something was wrong, Zhang Xiting was very sincere to himself on weekdays, although his personality was a little withdrawn, but he would never be this kind of person who would make conspiracies.
"You...... You...... What do you want?"
Zhang Xiting turned around, his back to Su Nian, the evening breeze raised his long hair and cuffs, fluttering like a lonely fairy, and the fragrance of green bamboo in his hair swept the tip of Su Nian's nose, elegant and fresh.
The bamboo branches not far away were rustling, Zhang Xiting opened his arms in a chic manner, hugging the oncoming evening breeze, but his voice was softer than this evening breeze: "Do you know why there are so many wives and concubines in this Zhang Mansion, but there is nothing to come out of?"
Su Nian did feel strange at first, Zhang Yuanluo had so many wives and concubines, how could he only have two sons, Su Nian also joked, could it be that this Zhang Yuanluo is old and his body can't keep up!
Suddenly, Su Nian's breath stagnated, and he exclaimed, "Isn't it, it has something to do with what Fang just saw?"
Zhang Xiting's quiet and peaceful face was filled with a trace of inadvertent waves, and he sighed: "That's the third lady - Dai Shuang!"
The third lady, the third lady who doesn't leave the second door!
Su Nian actually hadn't seen this third lady before, but he heard that she had a soft temperament and was as timid as a mouse, and she only stayed in her room all day long, almost never going out.
"What the hell is she doing?"
Zhang Xiting looked at Su Nian with his eyebrows lowered, and suddenly, he bent down coldly and put his face in front of Su Nian's eyes, and even snorted clearly, so frivolous, completely different from what he had seen before, Su Nian was so frightened that he stayed in place for a while, not daring to speak.
"Those white fungus bird's nest soup is a must-eat for the second, third, and fourth ladies every day, what do you say she wants to do?" Zhang Xiting's speech speed was very fast, and the air flow from his mouth penetrated straight into Su Nian's neck, which was a kind of coldness that penetrated into his bones, making Su Nian shiver coldly!
After Zhang Xiting finished speaking, Su Nian took a few steps back, her expression was a little numb and stiff, and she said for a long time: "How do I know what she wants to do?"
The wind gently rubbed the ends of his hair, and the whole body was cold and cold.
Zhang Xiting suddenly laughed, straightened up, and his expression returned to normal: "Unexpectedly, this will scare you!"
It turned out that Zhang Xiting's abnormal behavior was completely just ridicule, but he was still scared half to death, the corners of Su Nian's mouth tightened, and he said in a muffled voice: "It's not fun at all!"
Zhang Xiting's eyebrows were stretched, his expression was elegant, and the smile on his face was half-concealed, which was really unpredictable.
Su Nian tilted his head and raised his forehead: "What the hell is going on?"
......
Dai Shuang put a child avoidance medicine in the soup, and Zhang Xiting also accidentally bumped into the eldest lady An Wenhe in the backyard garden and met with the three ladies Dai Shuang in private to find out the reason.
Dai Shuangben was a refugee who was exiled here in another country, and was accidentally rescued by An Wenhe, so he entered Zhang's Mansion under An Wenhe's arrangement, and there is no need to speculate about the drugging.
It's just that Zhang Yuanluo has always ignored Zhang Xiting, and these ladies in the backyard have never looked at him in their eyes, so Zhang Xiting naturally doesn't want to meddle in his affairs and let it go.
Su Nianben didn't agree with Zhang Xiting's approach, but he could understand it somewhat, it was not easy to be good alone, and it was indeed a little difficult for him to help the world.
No wonder these ladies can't give birth to heirs no matter how favored they are, and the eldest lady is indeed a good means, easily cutting off everyone's back road, but her own hands are still spotless. In the future, even if Daishuang is exposed, An Wenhe will be difficult to be implicated, not to mention his identity and status, just this eldest son is enough to clean himself up.
