Chapter 113: Dripping Guanyin
Wanyue listened to Yinqi's words, the corners of her mouth curved up slightly, and she couldn't help nodding.
Although Guerjia Yinan was demoted to Gege, the location of Dongnuan Pavilion still let her live, and even the share that she should have on weekdays is also a lot.
Liu Jia Miaoyin was very dissatisfied with this, but it was not good to ask Yinqi in person, so she instigated Wanyue to ask, but Wanyue did not do what she wanted, but just reminded Liu Jia Miaoyin with a smile: "Lord Belle may have seen that she used to be a concubine, not to mention that she is still pregnant with a child in her belly now, and my sister also knows that Lord Belle has always been kind-hearted, so she will be treated the same as before." It's just that the identity has changed. ”
After Wanyue finished speaking, a cold light flashed faintly in her eyes, Yinqi's heart is a good thing for bad people, but not necessarily for good people.
After listening to Wanyue's words, Liu Jia Miaoyin sneered, the expression on her face changed slightly, she was worried that Guerjia Yinan would one day regain her favor through the child in her belly?
Wouldn't Hongsheng and Junhua be concubines all their lives in the future, no, she must make them sons and daughters-in-law, Liu Jia Miaoyin thought like this, and suddenly came up with a good way in her mind.
Wanyue and Liu Jia Miaoyin discussed the matter in the backyard for a while, and then returned to Xinuan Pavilion.
The two of them have an agreement on the arrangement of the backyard, and it is tentatively scheduled that Liu Jia Miaoyin will first manage the affairs of the East Warm Pavilion, the East Side Palace, and the East Wing Room, and the dining rooms and warehouses in other mansions will be managed by Wanyue first.
Wanyue didn't have much objection to this, anyway, it was all in turn, but she was a little worried that Liu Jia Miaoyin would stumble Su Xin.
In the first half of the month managed by the two, the backyard was normal, and the people were all kind, and there were no problems.
On this day, Mama Li had just picked up lunch in the dining room when she saw a new-eyed eunuch busy handling taro.
Mama Li was just puzzled at the time, taro is a food from September to October, and it is only March at this time, how can there be such food! And the shape of the taro seemed a little stranger than what she had seen before, and it must have been bought from afar at a great price.
After the taro is stewed, it is soft and fragrant, hot and super delicious, but Mama Li has eaten taro once, and she wants to eat it tightly at this time, so she also told Miss Ming'er to stew a few taro to eat.
Mama Li couldn't hold back after all, and originally wanted to wait for Ming'er to talk to Wanyue about getting taro to eat, but as soon as Wanyue finished lunch, Mama Li couldn't help but suggest.
"Miss, I just saw a eunuch peeling taro in the dining room, do you want to try taro tomorrow?"
This faint sentence couldn't help but arouse the heartache in Wan Yue's heart, she had sworn in her previous life that she would never eat food like taro again.
At that time, her first child was only four years old, and it was when she was jumping around, and I don't know which of the little servants in the house accidentally used food similar to taro for her child to eat, causing her first child to suffocate to death.
She remembered very well that the food similar to taro was not taro at all, but a very toxic 'dripping Guanyin', and its shape was completely different from taro, just because the little girl in the dining room could not distinguish it, her child would be poisoned.
Thinking of the past, Wanyue's face was painful, and Mama Li saw that the young lady's face was not good, so she didn't dare to ask anymore, and hurriedly put away the dishes and chopsticks on the rosewood table.
The sound of the clashing of dishes and chopsticks pulled Wanyue back to reality, and wait, Wanyue seemed to think of something.
She looked at Mama Li in disbelief and asked, "Isn't taro available from September to October?" How can there be taro here? Is Mama mistaken? ”
Mama Li immediately shook her head, and replied with an affirmative face: "Miss, the old slave will definitely not be mistaken, when I was taking the meal, I saw a eunuch squatting outside the dining room and peeling the taro skin, and the shape of the taro was still a little strange. ”
When Wanyue heard this, her face turned pale with fright, and she looked at Mama Li with wide eyes, "What did you say!" ”
Mama Li was stunned for a moment, Miss's reaction was a little too intense, she was a little overwhelmed, and said it again blankly.
At this moment, Wanyue is like five thunderbolts, how could this 'Dripping Guanyin' appear in the mansion again!
She didn't have time to think about it, so she hurriedly asked Mama Li to go to the dining room immediately to ask where the taro-like thing had been sent, and Mama Li hurriedly ran to the dining room to inquire.
Then he told Mama Wang to inquire who had brought that thing into the house.
After a while, Mama Li ran back to Xinuan Pavilion with sweat on her head, panting and returning to Wanyue: "Miss, I heard from the people in the dining room that the taro was sent to Dongnuan Pavilion, saying that it was for the little boy Honghui to eat." ”
After hearing this, Wanyue immediately rushed towards Dongnuan Pavilion, although she wanted to kill Guerjia Yinan, but the child was innocent after all.
Seeing this, Mama Li and Yu Dan in the house also followed behind for some reason, and when they ran to the garden, Wan Yue stopped and asked Yu Dan to hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to send it directly to Dongnuan Pavilion after arriving.
After giving the order, he continued to run towards the East Warm Pavilion.
At this moment, the Dongnuan Pavilion was a little deserted, except for Guerjia Yinan, Honghui, and an old lady who took care of them, Yuwen and Yuxia, there was no one else.
Guerjia Yinan was eating lunch, and the old lady fed Honghui two mouthfuls of taro, and heard the sound of fire outside.
The people in the room heard it, and they all turned their heads to see the door, Guerjia Yinan thought that Yinqi was coming, and was busy straightening his clothes, but when he saw that it was Fang Fu Jin Wanyue, he couldn't help but cold his face.
After Wanyue entered the house, she didn't look at Guerjia Yinan directly, but looked at the taro on their table, and saw that the old lady happened to be holding the taro in her hand, and pushed the taro to the ground, and asked the old lady with an uneasy face: "Have you eaten the things in this bowl?" ”
The old lady nodded, and Wanyue gasped, "Quick, let him spit it out. That's not taro, that's 'dripping Guanyin', poisonous! ”
As soon as she finished speaking, a scream was heard in the room, and then there was a mess.
Fortunately, Honghui only ate two bites, and Guerjia Yinan personally stuffed his fingers into Honghui's throat, and Honghui spit out the 'Dripping Guanyin' he ate.
When the doctor came, he checked Honghui's pulse again, and after making sure that he was okay, Wanyue left Dongnuan Pavilion.
When she went back, her back was already wet with sweat, and she couldn't believe why there was such a thing as mistaking 'Dripping Guanyin' for taro in the dining room in the house, not to mention that many maids in the house were almost different from her previous life.
There is only one result of such a question, that is, the 'Dripping Guanyin' is by no means the mistake of the little people in the house, it must be deliberately instructed by a certain master.
In the west side hall, Liu Jia Miaoyin, who heard that someone went to the dining room to check the 'Dripping Guanyin', was a little uneasy, it was really a false alarm, but fortunately, the eunuch was disposed of by her.
She originally wanted to take the opportunity to embarrass Guerjia Yinan, and secretly used the plant 'Dripping Guanyin' for Honghui to eat, but somehow she was discovered by Wanyue of Xinuan Pavilion.
Liu Jia Miaoyin couldn't figure it out, few people knew the difference between 'Dripping Guanyin' and taro, how did she find out?
After Wanyue returned to Xinuan Pavilion, Mama Li told her good sister Mama Wang about the scene in Xinuan Pavilion, and then Mama Li fell into silence, and secretly sighed in her heart that she was fortunate to find out, otherwise another little master in the house would make a fuss, so how could it be done, and Miss is still in charge of Dongnuan Pavilion now, who is so intentional!
Mama Wang, Mama Li, and Yudan were all scared for a while, and they were all a little afraid of plants like 'Dripping Guanyin', but they were still curious about how the little master knew.
After Wanyue recovered her mind, she saw that they were curious, so she told them about the knowledge of 'Dripping Guanyin' that she had found in her previous life.
"When it blooms, it resembles Kannon, and when it is well hydrated, it drips water from the tip of the leaf or the edge of the leaf, hence its name. Its rhizome is very similar to taro, and it is very toxic, and after ingestion, there will be symptoms such as numbness of the tongue, laryngeal edema, suffocation, and the most serious consequences may also cause death. ”
After listening to this, the three of them were completely stunned, and Mama Li felt even more creepy.
Newcomers and new books, ask for collections, ask for recommendations, ask for comments, all kinds of requests.
