Chapter 342: Suicide

Hongmei was about to go to the Jinlou with the soup cup containing the chicken soup, when Mrs. Xu came over and took out a small bamboo tube from her sleeve: "Pour the medicinal powder inside." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Hongmei was surprised: "Madame didn't say that she couldn't poison it, so as not to be seen as flawed, why is it ...... now?"

Mrs. Xu said: "These are hallucinogens, and drinking them will only produce hallucinations." ”

Hongmei didn't quite understand what was the use of making Li hallucinate, but she didn't dare to ask more, so she took the bamboo tube, pulled out the stopper, and sprinkled the medicinal powder inside into the chicken soup.

Mrs. Xu stared at the side and said, "Enough, the excess is in case of an emergency." ”

Hongmei listened, plugged the stopper, put the bamboo tube on her body, and the master and servant walked towards the Jinlou.

When the mother-in-law who sprinkled and swept on the road saw it, she hurried to say hello: "The dew is heavy in the early morning, and the lady will come out this time, for fear of getting wet." ”

Mrs. Xu smiled mildly and said, "Who said it wasn't, it's just that Aunt Li can't afford to be sick, it's really worrying, I don't know if it's better today, I have to go and see."

Mothers are old, each of them should take care of their health, the weather is dry, drink more hot tea. ”

When the mothers-in-law saw that their wives were so considerate of them, they were all moved, and praised: "Our wife is the most bodhisattva-hearted, and all the powerful aunts are taken care of, and even our slaves and maids are also concerned." ”

Mrs. Xu listened and smiled slightly.

When the master and servant arrived at Li's room in the Jinlou, Li had already woken up and was sitting on the bed, and her maid was feeding her medicine.

After a few days, Li became very haggard, his face was yellow, and his eye sockets were sunken.

When she saw Mrs. Xu's master and servant walking in, she shrank back in horror as if she had seen a ghost.

Seeing that she was behaving abnormally, Chuan'er hurriedly reminded in a whisper: "Auntie, hurry up and greet Mrs.!" He put down the medicine bowl in his hand and greeted him with a smile: "Mrs. Nafu, my aunt had a nightmare all night last night, and now she is a little delirious, don't blame Mrs." ”

Mrs. Xu looked at Li with pity, and said with a kind smile: "What did you say, this girl, your master is sick like this, my heart is fried, how can I care about this?

Kuan'er said: "The slave doesn't dare to boast, but she stays by her aunt's side for a moment. ”

Mrs. Xu said: "Good girl, I have worked hard for you, and when your aunt is well from her illness, I will reward you heavily." ”

Strings are busy and blessed.

Mrs. Xu walked to Li's bedside and sat down, took the soup cup from Hongmei's hand, and said softly: "I personally boiled black chicken stewed red dates and lotus seeds and poria soup early in the morning, which has the most miraculous effect on insomnia and palpitations, so my sister should drink it while it's hot." ”

Li didn't even dare to look at Mrs. Xu, his whole body trembled, his expression was very frightened, as if he was sitting in front of him, he didn't dare to take the cup of chicken soup.

Kuan'er said on the side: "My aunt is suffering from palpitations and insomnia, even the doctor said that as long as you can sleep peacefully, you can be cured of the disease in less than a month, and this soup is not suitable for my aunt." ”

When Li Shi heard this, he glared at Kuan'er resentfully, glanced at Mrs. Xu in fear, and quickly lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you Madame, my mouth is bitter, I really can't eat it." ”

Mrs. Xu smiled and persuaded: "A few days ago, I also had a cold, and I had a fever so much that I didn't taste at all in my mouth.

My sister refuses to eat like this, even the gods are helpless. ”

Kuan'er said: "That's it, as long as you have a diet, what kind of illness can't be cured? He said to the Li family: "Auntie, how can you live up to Madame's wishes?"

Li Shi was forced to have no choice but to slowly reach out to pick up the cup of chicken soup, Xu was so sick and weak that she didn't hold it steady, the cup of chicken soup slipped from her hand and fell to the floor, splashing the chicken soup on the ground.

Li Shi said in fear: "I...... I didn't mean to!"

Mrs. Xu smiled warmly and said, "Who said you did it on purpose?" got up and got out of the way, ordered Chuan'er to clean up the ground, and said to Hongmei: "Go make a cup of hot tea for your aunt to drink to suppress the shock." He winked at her as he spoke.

Hongmei understood, and turned around to make tea, and Xu just blocked Li's sight.

Hongmei took the opportunity to make tea and poured the hallucinogens into the tea, gently shaking the teacup to let the medicine dissolve quickly.

Chuan'er sent the cleaned chicken soup and other materials downstairs, and Hongmei walked to Li's side and sat down with the cup of hot tea that had just been brewed, and said with a smile: "The slave maid came to feed the aunt to drink, lest the aunt be soft and miss the cup again." As he spoke, he brought the teacup to Lee's lips.

Li Shi looked at Mrs. Xu's master and servant in surprise, she was both laughing, Li Shi only felt that the smile was ill-intentioned, and hesitated in his heart, whether to drink this cup of tea or not.

After thinking about it, this cup of tea, tea cups and water are all in her room, there should be no problem, and besides, she dropped the chicken soup before, and now she doesn't drink tea, it's really unreasonable, maybe Mrs. Xu didn't suspect it, she did it so obviously, she was suspicious, so she opened her mouth and drank the cup of tea.

Mrs. Xu smiled with satisfaction, said a few words of comfort such as recuperating from her illness, and left with Hongmei.

After a while, breakfast came from the kitchen, a plate of meat buns, a plate of creamy steamed buns, a bowl of pigeon eggs, a bowl of porridge and a plate of pickled bamboo shoots.

The mother-in-law who delivered the meal pointed to the bowl of pigeon eggs and said, "This was specially added by Mrs. ”

After the mother-in-law left, Kuan'er asked Li, "What does my aunt want to eat?"

Lee pointed to the bowl of pigeon eggs.

Kuan'er took a pigeon egg and peeled it off, and couldn't help complaining: "Aunt is really, a bowl of chicken soup is not as nutritious as this pigeon egg, but it was overturned by my aunt." ”

Li Shiden became angry: "I will be killed by you sooner or later!"

It took a long time for Ku'er to sit up and eat a bun, two pigeon eggs, and half a bowl of porridge.

Kuan'er was overjoyed: "If my aunt eats like this, her illness will be cured soon." ”

Li smiled, the ants were still stealing, how could she not miss the red tip.

Chuan'er served her to lie down, ate the rest, and when she saw that Li had her eyes closed, she put away the dishes and chopsticks and went out lightly.

Li was about to fall asleep when he heard the sound of the door being pushed open and asked, "Is it a string?"

"It's me. ”

Li Shi heard that it was Hongmei's voice, sat up in shock, and asked, "Why is my sister here again?"

Hongmei smiled suspiciously: "My wife asked me to tell my sister something, that Aunt Zhao was kicked out of the house because of nonsense, and she has died, you say, who will be the next turn?"

Li Shi was sleepy, sitting in a daze, his heart was full of panic, it was his turn next, rather than being brutally killed by Mrs. Xu, it was better to find a decent way to die.

But how do you die?

Li Shi thought about it, cried at the same time, struggled to get up from the bed, but saw a figure floating outside the house, and the dying person was also bolder, Li Shi walked outside the door to take a look, and saw Wen faintly walking upstairs, and turned back to beckon her to come up.

Li went upstairs in a daze, and when she saw Wen enter the house, she followed in.

Wen took a sweat towel and threw it on, put it on the beam, and prepared to hang himself.

When Li saw it, he suddenly woke up, Wen was already a dead person, how could he suddenly appear?

She must have come to teach herself a way to die.

Li Shi looked at it again, where is there still the shadow of Wen?

At that time, she was already unconscious, standing on the Hu table, took off her sweat towel, tied a sleeve on the roof beam, put it around her neck, and kicked the Hu table away.

Chuan'er went to the kitchen to return the dishes, walked to the Jinlou, and saw Hongmei coming out of the Jinlou from a distance, a little puzzled, didn't she come just now, why did she come again?

Chuan'er was full of suspicion and entered the Jinlou, the whole building was lifeless, only her footsteps were alone, and when she thought of the death of two aunts in this building one after another, Chuan'er felt frightened in her heart, and ran back to Li's house in one breath, but found that the house was empty.

Kuan'er was even more puzzled in her heart, where can her aunt go if she is sick like that?

Suddenly, I heard a noise from upstairs, as if something had been kicked down.

Kuan'er looked up at the ceiling blankly, Aunt Wen who lived upstairs, her master and servant were both dead, how could there be a noise? Could it be that Aunt Li went up? Why did she go up?

Chuan'er walked out of the door and shouted a few times upstairs: "Auntie!" No one answered, she became more and more uneasy, she had the courage to go upstairs, pushed open the door, and saw that Li's hanging beam had committed suicide, and she was so frightened that she rushed out of the Jinlou with a roll, shouting all the way: "Auntie committed suicide! Auntie committed suicide!"

The maids and servants walking on the road all looked at her sideways.

As soon as Tan returned from watering the Forgotten Worries Flower from Ling Hanju, Green Jade told her that Aunt Li had committed suicide.

Although Ruochen felt a little strange, because Zichen was missing, the whole person was like a wilted flower, and he couldn't mention sex to everything, so he ignored it.

Amber was intrigued and asked the green jade what was going on.

Seeing that Miss was not interested, Green Jade felt disappointed, and now Amber asked, she immediately came to her senses, and her eyebrows fluttered and she said what she heard and Amber: "Aunt Li committed suicide in Aunt Wen's house, and everyone said that she was blinded by ghosts, so she hanged herself, otherwise she is a good person, but she is sick, so she can't think about it, and she deliberately ran to the dead Aunt Wen's house to commit suicide?"

Amber sighed: "This year, our family is really unfavorable, all the dead, even the son of Chen is ......" Speaking of this, he realized that he had lost his words and quickly shut up.

Five days have passed, and on this night, Ruo Chen walked towards Ling Hanju in the moonlight because he missed Zichen, and looked at the bean-sized light in Ling Hanju's window from a distance, and was happy in his heart: "Brother Chen is back!"

The light in the window suddenly went out, Ruo Chen paused in front of Ling Hanju, and said with tears in his eyes: "Brother Chen, I know it's you, don't you even want to see me?" I just ask you to see me and tell me why I'm leaving."

Didn't you ever make a promise that if I grew up and could make a decision, I would make a decision.

I'll tell you right now, I like you and I want to be with you. ”

After saying this, he stood quietly in the quiet night.

However, for a long time, I couldn't wait for any response.

Ruo Tan kept wiping his tears with the back of his hand, and choked in a low voice: "I understand what Brother Chen meant." He turned around and walked away slowly, his steps heavy and his back lonely.

Zichen hid in the shadow of the tree and saw it, he couldn't bear it, and just wanted to go out, but was pulled by the black-clothed woman with a black veil next to him, and said in a low voice: "You can't go out!"

Zichen's tone was a little pleading: "I'll go out to meet her, and then part ways." ”

The woman sneered, "Didn't you hear what she just said? If you go out like this, she will only think that you have accepted her confession."

Don't meet, don't break the thread, you didn't hear about the Mid-Autumn Festival that night, you are with her, it is likely to bring disaster to her and her family.

Your sister has been pampered since she was a child, even if she eloped with you, she may not be able to endure the hardships of displacement, if you are really good for her, let it go completely. ”

Seeing that Zichen was still silent, the woman continued: "I have done everything I promised you, and as for the promise you made to me, you will fulfill it if you are willing to fulfill it, and I will never force it if you don't want to fulfill it."

I will wait for you in the maple forest outside Chang'an City until dawn, if you don't come, we will be finished, and my life and death will have nothing to do with you from now on. With that, he spread his arms, and the wide light gauze sleeves spread out like butterfly wings, and floated away.

Zichen stood in the dark for a long time, and when he arrived at Rongxi Hall, it was already silent.

He jumped in through the back window of Ruochen's bedroom, walked to Ruochen's bedside, and saw that she was already asleep, so he sat down on the edge of her bed, and watched it for a long time, until there was a glimmer of dawn in the sky.

Beside the maple forest outside Chang'an City, a woman in red clothes and a red veil looked at a wisp of red tyrant behind her, her clear and cold eyes revealed endless disappointment, sighed lightly, stepped on the big white horse next to her and was about to leave, suddenly heard the sound of hurried horse hooves behind her, and turned around sharply, and saw a handsome young man riding a big black horse galloping, with a big cat that looked like a little tiger on his head.

The big cat gave her a lazy look, then closed its eyes.

The woman in red tried her best to suppress the joy in her heart and said calmly: "Zichen, you are finally here." ”

Zichen raised his eyebrows and said, "It's okay, you're still there." He smiled lightly, "I will fulfill my promise to be your good brother and take care of you for the rest of my life." ”

The girl in the women's clothes smiled coquettishly: "Then I will call you Brother Chen in the future." ”

Zichen heard the words "Brother Chen", and a soft voice sounded in his ears: "Brother Chen!" Her innocent and delicate smile seemed to appear in front of her, and her heart hurt greatly, and she smiled forcefully: "Since you and I are brothers and sisters, what is Brother Chen, just call me brother." With that, he rode his horse and galloped forward.

A trace of displeasure flashed in the eyes of the girl in red, she bit her lip, and said to herself: "Brother Chen, I must get you!"

Two horses, one black and one white, disappeared into the distance with a man and a woman, merging with the morning glow in the sky.
