Chapter 21: Suspicion of the New Generation

Yuan Jia found a seventy percent new tortoiseshell step shake from Zhao's mother's room, this thing is often worn by Zhao's mother, not to mention that almost everyone in the house has seen it, Yuan Xi has definitely seen it. Yuan Jia took a big red jewelry box, sealed it with a red silk ribbon, and asked someone to send it to Yuan Jie immediately.

After doing something to vent his grievances, Yuan Jia also felt that he was in a good mood, and there was stewed duck soup for dinner, which was very refreshing to drink. You Shi smiled and served a bowl of duck soup for Yuan Jia: "With Yuanjie's brain, he should have sent things to Wei Yuanxi by now." This duck soup is stewed well, drink more, and wait for the next trouble, so that we can have the strength to watch the show. ”

Yuan Jia took two sips of soup and said with a smile: "I really want to see Yuan Xi's angry appearance now, it's so funny." From this point of view, although Yuan Jie is a rotten person, he is still somewhat useful. ”

You Shi took a chopstick of yuba silk and put it in his mouth to eat: "Yuan Jie is a person like this, we can't be angry with her." This kind of person is a double-headed gun, and if you don't use it well, you will hurt people at both ends, what we have to do is to use this gun well, hurt the people who should be injured, and protect ourselves. When it's time for a disaster, she can also be our shield. ”

As she was talking, a little girl ran into the house in a panic: "Auntie, eldest lady, something happened in the house." The third lady vomited blood, and the old lady was in a hurry. ”

Yuan Jia was shocked at first, and then she was happy, surprised that she didn't expect to make such a big fuss, and happy that she also let Yuan Xi taste the taste of being ridiculed. In contrast, You Shi seemed much more sophisticated, and only slightly wondered: "How can this be? What the hell is going on?"

The little girl didn't know what to do, so she replied truthfully: "I heard that she vomited blood because she was angry and anxious, and the people in Zichen Pavilion said that the four girls were angry, and now Aunt Zheng and the fourth girl and the second girl are kneeling in the courtyard of the third lady to plead guilty." ”

Unexpectedly, there was a multiplier effect with half the effort, You Shi was secretly happy in his heart, stood up, and hid his smile: "Let's go, let's visit too." ”

There was a mess in the Zichen Pavilion, and as soon as you entered the door, you could smell the smell of medicine in the tea room, and the little girls were busy, and someone came out of the room with a few bloody handkerchiefs.

In the night, three figures knelt in the courtyard, one high and two low. You Shi laughed secretly, he thought that he would be angry with Yuanxi, but he didn't expect that there would be such a role, and it was a good thing to think about it, who told Zheng to add fuel and vinegar when he happened?

You Shi stopped beside Zheng's mother and daughter, and asked as if unexpectedly, "Sister Zheng, what's wrong?" The third girl is fine, how can she suddenly vomit blood?"

As soon as Yuan Jie was about to speak, she saw her mother's hazy face, as if she would be bitten to death by her if she said more. Yuan Jie blinked her eyes and swallowed back the grievances that came to her mouth.

Suddenly, seeing Doctor Zhang in the capital coming out of the room with a medicine box on his back, Yuan Jia hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Doctor, how is my third sister?"

Doctor Zhang twisted his beard: "The situation is not good, the third girl vomited blood, or because of the anger in the heart, but I think it is more like a sign of poisoning." I have already told the lord about the specific matters, miss, I still have to go to decoction medicine, and I will be out of company first. ”

Yuan Jia was stunned for a moment, no wonder it was so serious that he vomited blood. I just wanted to be angry with Yuan Xi, but I didn't expect Yuan Jie's methods to be more ruthless, and he actually wanted to poison Yuan Xi directly! With such a vicious mind, I really underestimated her in the past. Yuan Jia looked at his mother You Shi in astonishment, and You Shi couldn't help but shudder.

"Sister Zheng, I really underestimate you, it turns out that you still have this heart!" As soon as You's voice fell, Zheng woke up suddenly, Wei Yuanxi is the only heir in the mansion and the only heir in name, if someone starts her idea, it will be no different from fighting for family property. Zheng suddenly cried: "Master, I was wronged, you listen to my explanation!"

Yuan Yue frowned and reprimanded: "Mother, don't shout." Dad and Grandmother are upset enough, so don't mess with them anymore. Wait for Dad to call us, and then we'll explain it to Daddy. ”

Zheng Shi consciously didn't take advantage of it, but muttered in a low voice: "Crawled out of my intestines, teach me a lesson." Yuan Jie sighed and rubbed the cold knees she was kneeling on: "Oops, it's annoying, what's the matter with you?"

Yuan Yue is sensible, but it's a pity that there is such a useless mother and sister on the stall, and if you want to turn over in this life, it will be difficult. You Shi and Yuan Jia looked at each other and smiled, and entered Yuan Xi's bedroom.

You Shi stood beside the old lady cautiously, nodded briefly with her husband, and glanced behind the curtain again, seeing Yuan Xi open his eyes and look at her, You Shi hurriedly turned his face away. This is confusing, is there anyone in this mansion who hates her more than himself? You Shi also wondered for a while in his heart, poisoning this kind of thing made others think of it first.

The old lady blushed with a face, and You Shi asked as if she were walking on thin ice: "What's the matter? Isn't it okay during the day?"

The old lady snorted with hatred: "I want to ask you?

Yuan Jia breathed a sigh of relief and replied concisely: "Oh, the fourth sister said that if she wanted an idle piece of jewelry, Mother Zhao happened to have one, so she gave it to the fourth sister." Saying that, she pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Then again, how did this thing get here?"

The old lady suddenly looked at Yuan Jia: "So, this thing is yours even with the box?"

Yuan Jia nodded pretending to be frightened. She actually knew in her heart that anyway, Yuan Jie and Zheng's mother and daughter were a pair of brainless, and only one Yuan Yue in that courtyard could still fight with them, Yuan Yue had a cold personality, advocating Mingzhe to protect herself, and she would definitely not get involved in this matter, even if Zheng's mother and daughter wore out their mouths, don't think about framing her Wei Yuanjia!

The old lady was furious, and with a wave of her hand, she knocked the hairpin to the ground along with the box, and pointed at Yuanjia with her finger and reprimanded: "You are so vicious! I think you just want to poison your sister to death!"

Yuan Jia knelt down with a puff, tears slid down his cheeks in an instant, and cried: "Grandmother, don't be angry, granddaughter really doesn't know what's going on, and ask grandmother to find out." ”

Wei Dongshu sat indifferently and didn't speak, Yuan Jia hurriedly grabbed the corner of his clothes and begged for mercy: "Dad, please tell your grandmother, my daughter is really wronged, the fourth sister said that she wants jewelry to reward people, and her daughter thought, her mother was only fined for a month, and she should save her life." That's why I didn't want to give good jewelry to the fourth sister, thinking that I wanted to reward the next person anyway, and I didn't shy away from the old and the new. But what does this hairpin have to do with the poisoning of the third sister? And why did the third sister get poisoned? My daughter really doesn't know about this, you have to believe my daughter!"

You Shi also knelt aside, and echoed casually: "Yes, master, old lady, daughter-in-law admits that Yuan Jia usually does not get along with the three girls, but there are also stumbles between sisters." No matter how much you stumble, you won't poison your sister?"

Wei Dongshu's heart softened, and he was busy and endured. He originally hoped that what Yuan Jia said was the truth, but in this situation, it was really difficult to distinguish who was right and who was wrong, so he asked sharply: "You don't know? Let me ask you, why is there eighteen anti medicine powder on this hairpin?"

According to the literature, there are eighteen flavors of medicine in traditional Chinese medicine that are mutually restrained, hence the name eighteen anti. If a person misuses a medicine that is compatible with him, he will become seriously ill and die. Yuan Jia was stunned: "What eighteen antis?"

You Shi hurriedly picked himself and his daughter clean, and said, "Master, old lady, Jia'er doesn't understand pharmacology, this is known in the house." Moreover, Jia'er doesn't even know what medicine the three girls have been taking recently, so how can they find a medicine to harm people? It can be seen that someone has deliberately framed us! He also asked the old man and the old lady to make the decision for our mother and daughter!"

It can't be fake, it can't be fake. It is true that the poison was not given by the You mother and daughter, and with their eloquence, they can find a hundred ways to prove their innocence. The old lady also felt that things were not as simple as they appeared, so she sighed: "Get up." ”

The old lady sat for a long time and felt a pain in her shoulders, so she called Ju Xiang to rub her shoulders for her. After a while, the old lady suddenly asked Ju Xiang: "You are the one who stayed in the fourth girl's room, tell me, do the three of them seem to be able to do such things?"

Ju Xiang was stunned, and her hand suddenly stopped.

This made her difficult to answer, to tell the truth, Yuan Jie was stupid, Zheng's mind was not right, except for Yuan Yue, there was no normal person in that courtyard! But she couldn't say that, after all, she was a subordinate, and it was her former master who was kneeling outside, so she openly said bad things about the old master, and the old lady would inevitably be dissatisfied. But if you say good things for them? Ju Xiang silently rubbed her face, remembering the dense slaps she had received like raindrops, and she was sorry for herself.

"The old lady told you to say that, and you just said that. Wei Dongshu urged.

Ju Xiang lowered her head and hesitated and said, "Master, after all, Ju Xiang has served the four girls, it's not good for Ju Xiang to say this, right?"

You Shi smiled secretly in her heart, although this girl didn't say a word, she made everything clear. Can't hold back a heart to watch the play, and also want to add a few firewood to the fire, You Shi sighed, helplessly said: "It's really difficult for Juxiang, the fourth girl is her former master, even if she is scolded, it is all reasonable, what can she say?"

The Wei family is also a big family in the capital, and if something happens in the family that poisons and kills people and kills each other, and it spreads, won't it make people laugh? The old lady has a good face, so naturally she doesn't dare to investigate it in a big way, so she has to suppress this matter as if she was nothing. In this way, Zheng will not even have a chance to argue. Thinking of this, You Shi bit her lip tightly and held back her breathless laughter.

The old lady made up her mind and said, "Yuan Jie's temperament should indeed be well controlled." Although our Wei family is not an official eunuch family, but it also has a reputation in the capital, and our young ladies all act like Yuan Jie, and it won't make people laugh when it spreads?"
