Han Ximeng instructed Zheng Shoukuan to go out and sit in the courtyard, and watch the door of the Moon Cave, even the mother-in-law and the little maid in his courtyard, and they were not allowed to come in.

Then, she closed the door, sat down in front of Zheng Haizhu's couch, stared at her and said, "Do you think that the same group of people who harmed you this time and hurt us last year?" ”

Zheng Haizhu explained: "I wasn't very sure at first, but after Mrs. Miao said that the silkworm family showed the characters, I was sure that it was neither your third aunt's revenge, nor Li Guozhu's revenge, because, very simply, if it were them, whether they were stupid or smart, they would directly take my life." But this situation is so similar to what you and I encountered last year. ”

Han Ximeng thought for a while, nodded and said: "It's not that you want to kill me directly, otherwise you can't kill me with an arrow on the boat, why do you have to let me go into the bandit village to be humiliated." And this time, although he wants to burn you, he seems to want to tarnish your name after you die. ”

Zheng Haizhu said: "Exactly." I am your cronies, a member of the Han family, slandering me for offending the silkworm god and being punished by God, most of them are not against the Gu family, as Mrs. Miao said, but more likely, it is against the Han family and you. ”

Han Ximeng glared: "Why are you targeting me?" ”

"Because you are going to marry the eldest grandson of the Gu family, who is the most respected. This marriage, the three counties of Songjiang Prefecture, from the elegant gentlemen to the honest farmers, all thought it was a good match made in heaven. To destroy it, unless, unless you, Miss Han, were humiliated and lost before she got married, or the Han family was discredited. ”

Han Ximeng only felt that the hairs were countdown: "This ...... How many gentry families in Songjiang Mansion are richer than the Han and Gu families, Second Brother Gu is self-contained in my eyes, and he can't even compare with the Long Live Lord and the Prince, but this is just a lover's eyes, the talents of the three counties of Songjiang, after all, there are many people, why do you have to stare at breaking us up? ”

Zheng Haizhu muttered: "The reason for this section is that I suddenly figured it out when I was competing with the Hongyi people in Yuegang because of their unique dye. Miss, what the Gu family can crush other families is not rich or expensive, but art and embroidery. ”

"Ah Zhu, you mean, Miao Ah Tai's unique skills?"

"Yes. Miss, when Mrs. Miao left the palace, she got a handwritten book from the queen, and she was dressed in embroidery, which could be opened and set up and passed on to future generations. She also admitted to everyone that although she was not the wife of Old Lady Gu, she was very grateful to the Gu family, so she would pass on her skills to the Gu family's daughter-in-law, not her daughter-in-law, not to mention her daughter-in-law. ”

Han Ximeng frowned: "That has nothing to do with me." At most, I'm just a granddaughter-in-law. The eldest aunt and grandmother Shen are the daughter-in-law of the long house. ”

Zheng Haizhu said: "Grandma Shen can't be a successor. ”

"Why?"

Zheng Haizhu then told Han Ximeng a detail he saw at the Sheshan crab banquet last year.

Han Ximeng was taken aback, and said, "I can't see it on weekdays", and then thought about it carefully, and was about to delve into it, when he suddenly heard Zheng Haizhu's "hiss".

She couldn't hold back the pain in her burned hands, and she groaned.

This was in ancient times, when medicine was not so developed, and although the Langzhong bandaged the skin of the burned area with boiled gauze, the principle was the same as that of later generations to avoid infection, but after all, there were no oral or intravenous analgesic drugs.

As time passed, the pain that pierced the heart began to surface.

Zheng Haizhu realized that the pain of burns was worse than that of a knife.

Then I was glad that the white phosphorus was coated on the four legs of the silk horse, and the white phosphorus in this world was only purified.

Otherwise, if the white phosphorus of the later generations is directly attached to the skin, the thousand-degree high temperature, I am afraid that before the big bull jumps into the Moon River, he will have been burned through the skin and flesh and white bones.

At this moment, Han Ximeng saw that Zheng Haizhu was suffering, and he was distressed for a moment, and said: "Azhu, I know a folk secret recipe, use a newborn little mouse, boil it, mash it into mud, and apply it to the injured area......"

Although Zheng Haizhu grinned in pain, she quickly refused the kindness of the eldest lady.

Burn patients are most afraid of infection, and this does not ask about indiscriminately applying the so-called secret recipe to the wound, she is a modern person, and she does not dare to take risks.

"Okay, good, depending on you, don't apply mouse ointment."

Han Ximeng said softly.

Zheng Haizhu looked at the eldest lady's full motherhood, and couldn't help but laugh.

When I read "Dream of Red Mansions" in my last life, I always read about the friendship between Daiyu and Zijuan, Baochai and Ying'er, whether it was talking about my heart or parting with my heart, I always sighed that even in ancient times when there was no concept of equality, people got along with each other for a long time, and many intimaties could transcend the class gap.

When it comes to himself in this life, isn't the relationship between Han Ximeng and himself the same?

Speaking of the class divide...... Divide......

Zheng Haizhu suddenly remembered something.

No wonder just now, he suddenly felt that Han Ximeng cherished his expression.

Last time, Han Xiying accompanied Shen to the tailor's shop, and saw that the female worker Ah Zhen, who was close to her, had just cried, and her eyes were so worried and concerned.

At that time, the reason why Zheng Haizhu kept her memory of that scene was because she was just because Ah Zhen loved to be noisy when embroidering, which not only hindered other people's work, but also easily sprayed saliva on the silk yarn used to make embroidery bases, and fined her for three days' wages.

The second reason is that I did find out at that time that even a scheming little girl like Han Xiying has someone who takes the initiative to take care of her in life, and she will care about the joys, sorrows and sorrows of the other party.

However, today, Zheng Haizhu, who escaped death, wants to include Ah Zhen when she scans the people she has offended recently in her mind.

Although, after Ah Zhen was punished, she seemed to have become obedient, and took the initiative to show the broken or dirty silk yarn base to Versace's father and daughter, and then sold it to a small tailor's shop on the street, and indeed brought the copper money back to the public.

While Zheng Haizhu was pondering, his nephew Shoukuan knocked on the door and came in, and reported: "Miss, aunt, come forward, Gongzi Lu asked to see him, and also, and Second Gongzi Gu is also here." ”

……

In the front hall, Qian, the second grandmother of the Han Mansion, was instructing the maid to show tea to Lu and Gu.

Qian said in his heart, don't look at this Lu Xiangsheng Lu Gongzi is only seventeen years old, and he is really careful and thoughtful.

He said that there was an urgent matter to tell Han Ximeng and Zheng Haizhu directly, but he knew that he would go to Gu Mansion to bring Gu Shouqian.

Otherwise, just when the male host Han Zhongwen went to Suzhou to talk about business and was not at home, Lu Xiangsheng Mo said that he had gone to see the two young women, so he stepped into the door, and he was afraid of provoking discussions.

And with Gu Shouqian, the quasi-son-in-law of the Han Mansion, accompanying him, there is nothing wrong with it.

When Han Ximeng and Zheng Haizhu came in, Lu Xiangsheng glanced at Zheng Shoukuan, who was squatting at the door and playing with flowers and plants, and he was responsible for watching the wind, and said straight to the point: "When Lu read the military book, he roughly remembered a use of phosphorus fire, so he hurried back to the school library, flipped through the old days, and sure enough, he found those pages, which may explain why the phosphorus fire did not burn quickly. ”

The two girls asked in unison, "Why?" ”

"With charcoal and sulfur, calcined together, the juice of rapeseed oil can be obtained. If phosphorite is put into it, the stone will also dissolve. Sealed in a porcelain vase, it is as quiet as mercury. If it is poured on a substance, it will look like a water stain at first, but as the sulfur and carbon water volatilizes and the phosphate oil is revealed, it will suddenly burst into flames. ”

Zheng Haizhu listened to what Lu Xiangsheng said, and couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

This is estimated to be the knowledge of chemistry in junior high and high school, the carbon sulfide solution of white phosphorus, but unfortunately I returned it to the teacher.

She condensed her recollections, suddenly realized, and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "Before the team set off, I waited under the car, because I admired the exquisite tying of the horses, and I also looked carefully, there must be no water stains on the silk. When the parade begins, the only people who are likely to get close to the floats and water the liquid without attracting attention are the female dolls dancing with mulberry leaf branches and splashing well water. If the murderer is mixed in and splashes sulfur and phosphor oil on the horse's feet, and only a moment passes, the horse will burst into flames as if it had been caught in the fire. ”

Gu Shouqian, who was on the side, heard this, and hurriedly said: "Those mulberry farmers are mostly tenants of my family. Tomorrow, I will accompany Lu Xiandi to visit Sheshan Mountain, and visit the mulberry garden, or I can know which households have people to dance the mulberry branch dance. ”

Han Ximeng was about to tell her fiancé a few words, when Zheng Shoukuan, who was outside the house, suddenly said in a loud voice: "Third Miss, is Third Miss coming back from the Poetry Society?" ”

Han Xiying hurriedly stepped into the house, and when she saw Zheng Haizhu's appearance, she looked shocked, and then made a relieved expression, and said: "I just heard from Fan Poyu that something happened to Ah Zhu, but fortunately, Lu Gongzi was both wise and brave, and there was finally no danger, a little flesh injury." Ah Zhu, if you dodge the great difficulty, you will have a blessing. ”

Zheng Haizhu said, "Miss Cheng San's thoughts", and asked: "Miss San didn't go to the poetry club today, did she go to our school?" ”

Han Xiying's face was full of sincerity: "Go to the poetry club first, and then go to the school." The school set up by Ah Zhu was so interesting, I also felt that there was light on my face, so I invited the sisters of the poetry club to take a look. ”

The second aunt Qian's temperament is soft and honest, and now she is not as good as Zheng Haizhu is for ordinary servants and maids, but she cares a lot about her joy and anger, Qian knows that Zheng Yatou is disgusted with the mother and daughter of the third room, so she came out to ease the atmosphere with the respect of the elders, and smiled at Han Xiying: "Ah Ying, have you gone to see your eldest sister's tailoring and embroidery workshop?" ”

"Look, Master Fan and Little Sister Po are really well managed."

"Okay, when you get married, I'll also give you such an inheritance."

"Ah, how can my aunt say this in front of the distinguished guests, Ah Ying went back to the house first." Han Xiying made a shy and cramped posture, got up, lowered his eyes and pinched his sleeves to rush at Lu Xiangsheng and Gu Shou Qianfu, and said goodbye.

Zheng Haizhu is no longer surprised by this woman's green tea style, but what she is thinking about is why she suddenly led a group of Songjiang celebrities to visit the school and Han Ximeng's industry?

It's not because of the sudden elegance of leisure.

Previously, Yao said that Han Xiying told the female scrolls of Songjiang more than once that her sister did not like Su embroidery and simulated painting and embroidery in a unique way.
