Chapter 30: Mrs. Xu

Du Ruo smelled this strong aroma and frowned, but then she saw Ye Yuanzhou's face change suddenly, so she waved her hand at him.

"Brother Ye, don't worry." She waved her hand at Ye Yuanzhou, "This smell should be made by boiling the balm, boiling some flower oil to add it to increase the aroma."

There should be jasmine and osmanthus here, which is not the same as the strange fragrance I smelled that day.

The fragrance of that day was not a certain floral fragrance, but more like a medicinal fragrance.

I guess the oil in this is to hide the original smell. ”

Du Ruo held the tray and looked at it carefully, this time she didn't put her nose closer to smell it, after all, there was such a strong aroma to cover it, and other subtle breaths were completely covered, and she definitely couldn't smell it.

Although the texture of this thing is viscous, and a drop falling into the dish can maintain a moist arc like a ruby, and it does not spread out, but after careful observation, Du Ruo still roughly guessed what this thing is.

She put the plate back on the table and asked Mrs. Shi, who was watching nervously, "Who bought this red face dew from?" Is it possible to buy it as long as there is a referral? ”

"My lord, I bought it from a mysterious doctor who lived in a simple place through the recommendation of the wife of Xu Yuanwai's family in the county, and the divine doctor lived in seclusion outside the city, and he would never be seen without someone recommending him.

And it's not that someone will definitely be able to buy it, the divine doctor has to personally meet the person who wants to take Hongyanlu, and only the divine doctor nods to buy it, otherwise it will be blasted out if you go with gold. Mrs. Shi replied truthfully.

"What does he look at? Is it a pulse or a question? ”

"No, he just looks with his eyes, looks at it for a while, and then there is a result." Mrs. Shi's expression was a little nervous, "Do you think my daughter's accident has something to do with this red face dew?"

But the three daughters of the Xu family have all been used before in my family, and now the eldest and second have married into wives, and although the youngest daughter is in the boudoir, she is also safe and sound!

Oh yes, the youngest daughter of their family also went to the tea party that day, and then returned home safely, and it is still good! ”

Du Ruo listened to the new clues she inadvertently provided, and raised her eyebrows: "Oh? Did the third girl of the Xu family take Hongyanlu before or after your daughter? ”

"Her third daughter is after my daughter!" Mrs. Shi replied truthfully, "Mrs. Xu originally just gave it to her eldest daughter, because the eldest daughter was a little old at that time, and she was in a hurry to say goodbye to her daughter, so she was a little sick and rushed to the doctor, and she didn't care whether the rumors were true or not, so she planned to try it."

Later, I saw that the eldest daughter had indeed become beautiful, so I began to give it to the second daughter.

After all, this thing is expensive, so it was only after the first two daughters got married that she began to give it to her younger daughter again, and at that time my hard-working daughter had already eaten five clothes. ”

Du Ruo frowned: "I wonder if Mrs. Shi can take us to meet this Xu family girl?" ”

"This ......" Mrs. Shi was a little embarrassed.

"Mrs. Shi can ask that Mrs. Xu to recommend you to buy Hongyanlu, it should be a good relationship with that lady, right?

So why is it so difficult now? Du Ruo felt that Mrs. Shi's expression was a little strange.

"It's because my daughter's disappearance caused a lot of uproar, and then the body was found, but it became like that......" Mrs. Shi choked up, "Since the time of the fight, others have regarded my daughter as an ominous person, and they don't even want to deal with our family more."

I could have brought the two adults over to find the Mrs. of the Xu family, but she was willing to see us, I really don't know the bottom of this. ”

Mrs. Shi pursed her lips and hesitated, as if she was afraid that she would upset the two of them if she said something inappropriate, but she still cautiously revealed: "That Mrs. Xu is not ordinary, her uncle and cousin married into a famous family in her early years, and her husband is also outstanding, and now she has become Jing Zhaoyin."

I heard that before leaving the cabinet, the relationship between Mrs. Xu and her cousin was extremely close, and the eldest son of the Xu family was also sent to the capital at a young age to take care of and cultivate by the aunt's side.

So not to mention the county magistrate Tang of Yuanchuan County, even the assassin and Changshi of the state capital came, and they had to be polite to Mrs. Xu.

Originally, I had some friendship with her, but after such an incident happened in our family, she ignored me anymore.

So I'm afraid that if I get there, I'll let you two eat behind closed doors......"

Mrs. Shi's words were quite euphemistic, and what she wanted to express was nothing more than that Mrs. Xu was not small, and even the most powerful person in the state, Assassin Shi, had to be polite, not to mention Du Ruo and Ye Yuanzhou, the two idle positions.

To put it more bluntly, the identities of the two of them are not enough to see.

Ye Yuanzhou frowned slightly, looking disgusted by such a statement.

Du Ruo didn't care much, and Mrs. Chongshi waved her hand: "It's okay, you just take us over, and we'll figure out the rest by ourselves." ”

Seeing that she said so, Mrs. Shi also agreed, and the three of them immediately set off to visit Xu's house.

On the way there, Du Ruoben was ready to eat behind closed doors, or be treated lukewarmly and arrogantly.

When I first arrived at Xu's house, the porter saw that it was Mrs. Shi, and two unfamiliar faces, and it was indeed a nostril-looking appearance, and when Mrs. Shi told her that she came to find Mrs. Xu with Songzhou Sima and the captain of the light car, she was very impatient, and she was extremely reluctant when she went in to report.

But after a while, the porter came running back, smiling all over his face, and looking very courteous, completely different from before.

After entering the courtyard, I bypassed the photo wall, and someone inside greeted me.

Walking in the front was a woman in her early forties, gorgeously dressed, I saw her fast steps, followed by a few servants, hurriedly came to the front, looked at Ye Yuanzhou with her eyes, and blessed her body with a warm and respectful attitude.

"I don't know that General Ye is coming, and he hasn't greeted him from afar, so please don't be surprised!" As soon as Mrs. Xu spoke, she directly greeted Ye Yuanzhou.

It's just that her salutation made Ye Yuanzhou's brows rise even higher, and his attitude became more and more cold and detached.

He bowed his hand to Mrs. Xu: "Mrs. Xu, I just got on the light car and didn't dare to overstep, and I asked Mrs. Xu not to call me a little general again." ”

"The tiger father has no dogs, Ling Zun is a dignified hussar general, we call you a little general, that's the most appropriate!" Mrs. Xu was unwilling to change her words according to Ye Yuanzhou's intentions, and her attitude was still warm and flattering.
