Chapter 344: Poisoning
"What do you think is wrong with this cat?" Qiao'er asked, pointing in horror to the bleeding cat at the door.
"Ah......" The little maid had never seen such a scene, and suddenly screamed.
"Shut up! Qiao'er scolded, holding the little girl's hand tremblingly and walked to the cat that was lying at the door.
Qiao'er kicked with her foot, the cat lay down softly and didn't move, Qiao'er's face was frightened, and her hand was at a loss: "This ...... Why did you die?"
Xiaohong couldn't talk, Qiao'er suddenly thought of it, and suddenly looked afraid: "Quick, help me go to the young master, someone is trying to poison me!"
Xiaohong supported Qiao'er, and the two of them ran to the door of the front yard with one foot deep and one foot shallow, and when Chen Rui came back, he saw Qiao'er with an anxious face, and said with a heavy face: "You are a woman in the house, what kind of body do you become when you run to the front yard!"
Chen Rui only made his fortune by the big tree in the Hou Mansion, although he did not squeeze into the upper class, he also learned to dress and behave, and set several family rules, one of which is that the women in the family did not come to the front yard with their permission.
Qiao'er still remembered the family rules in a panic, and saw Chen Rui hurriedly stepped forward and pulled Chen Rui's sleeve and said in a panic: "Master, someone is trying to kill the concubine, and the concubine has come here to wait for the master." ”
Chen Rui's impatient face showed a hint of surprise: "That person who ate the gall of an ambitious leopard can harm you?"
"It's true, the cat that the master gave me has bled to death, if you don't believe it, the master will go with the concubine to take a look. Qiao'er had eagerness on her face, and Xiaohong on the side also nodded again and again, which couldn't help but Chen Rui didn't believe it, and walked towards the room with Qiao'er and the two of them striding towards the room.
The cat on the ground was already lying there hard, and a small piece of dried blood under his body was particularly dazzling, Chen Rui was shocked and stepped forward and turned over the cat's body, and saw that the cat's face was full of blood, Qiao'er and the maid stood tremblingly in the distance and did not dare to step forward.
After Chen Rui finished the inspection, he looked gloomy and asked, "What did the cat eat today?"
Qiao'er pinched Xiaohong's arm: "Master asked you, don't you come back soon." ”
The little maid's arm was pinched and painful, and she endured it and said, "I haven't eaten anything, and the slave hasn't had time to feed it in the morning." ”
Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, and suddenly said: "But the cat naughty once went to the kitchen and ate a piece of meat cooked by the mother-in-law!"
Chen Rui panicked when he heard this, and hurriedly ran to the kitchen, and Qiao'er and the two followed.
When he arrived at the kitchen, it didn't appear as Chen Rui thought, the kitchen was full of smoke and busy, Chen Rui rummaged left and right and finally found a bowl of steaming meat in a cabinet, and asked, "Who cooked this?"
Seeing that Chen Rui, who had never been involved in the kitchen, actually stepped into here today, the two mothers-in-law hurriedly stopped what they were doing, and one of them stepped forward while wiping his hands with an apron and replied: "It was cooked by the old woman." ”
Chen Ruihu glanced at her suspiciously, sniffed again, couldn't smell the slightest peculiar smell, and said to Xiaohong: "You go to the front yard and let someone come to a dog." ”
Seeing that Xiaohong was stunned, Chen Rui raised his voice and said, "Don't go yet!"
Xiaohong glanced at Qiao'er, and hurriedly ran to the front yard, and after a while, she was followed by a small maid leading a local dog.
Chen Rui's face was gloomy, he stretched out his hand and took out a piece of meat and threw it on the dog's mouth, the dog stretched out his tongue and swallowed the meat, and after a while, he only heard a scream, and the dog fell to the ground and bled to death.
Chen Rui's eyes flashed with a hint of anger and swept towards the two mothers-in-law in the kitchen, the two of them were frightened, and hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy: "The old woman doesn't know why this happened. ”
"Come on, search for me!" Chen Rui shouted, and several small people in the house ran over and began to search the kitchen.
Zhang and Chen Yue, who rushed to hear the news, hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
"What's going on?"
Seeing that Chen Rui's face was not good, Zhang didn't dare to ask, but saw Qiao'er on the side step forward and asked sharply, "Aunt Qiao, what's going on!"
Qiao'er pointed to the dead dog not far away and said with palpitations: "I don't know who...... Poisoning the flesh ......"
Only then did the two of them notice the dead dog on the ground, and they immediately screamed in fright.
This is okay, being poisoned in his yard and not letting people live, Zhang gritted his teeth: "Check, check for the old lady, the old lady wants to see who is so vicious and dares to harm our family!"
Hearing this, Qiao'er walked timidly and softly in front of Zhang: "Old lady, don't you think the concubine is the one?"
As she spoke, Qiao'er raised her chin towards where Xiahou Yan lived.
Zhang suddenly realized, yes, how could he forget this little prostitute!
My family has really been moldy for eight lifetimes, I married a grandmother, I didn't follow this grandmother to enjoy the taste of being a mother-in-law for a day, and I was scolded by her from time to time, Zhang's hated Xiahou Yan to the core.
It wasn't until later that Chen Rui slowly didn't fake his color to Xiahou Yan, and Zhang Shi trembled, and when he heard this, he immediately wanted to go in the direction where Xiahou Yan lived.
Chen Yue grabbed the Zhang family, how Xia Hou Yan is also the young lady of the Hou Mansion, she can't speak directly without evidence, Chen Yue follows Han Wu every day, and her heart is no longer as shallow as it was at the beginning.
Seeing Qiao'er stirring up discord, she immediately raised her eyebrows and said sharply to Qiao'er: "Aunt Qiao, I think you should be more peaceful, even if the sister-in-law is not treated by her brother, but she is always the young lady of the Hou Mansion, your little aunt has a few dares to point fingers at the house's master!"
"If I find out that you are restless and pleading on your mother to do something out of the ordinary, I will make you look good!"
Qiao'er's scolded face was red and white, and she couldn't hold it anymore, looking at Chen Rui and expecting him to say something, but unfortunately Chen Rui only stared at the little guys and couldn't take care of her, Qiao'er was unconvinced and coldly faced.
Seeing that Qiao'er was not making waves, Chen Yue said to Zhang: "Mother, wait a minute, if the eldest brother finds evidence, it will not be too late to do it." ”
When Zhang heard this, he stretched his neck to look at the kitchen, and muttered, "Why haven't you found it yet?"
At this moment, a small servant shouted loudly: "Young master, what do you think this is?"
Chen Rui took the things handed over by the little maid and looked at it, a woman's hairpin, and several members of the Zhang family also came over, Qiao'er said in a voice that everyone could hear: "Oh my God! Isn't this the hairpin on the young lady's head? Why is it here? Could it be that today's poison is really from the young lady?"
Qiao'er's words successfully aroused everyone's anger, and Chen Rui was angry and walked towards the house where Xiahou Yan lived with a hairpin in his hand.
Zhang shouted at Chen Yue as he walked: "What did I say, this woman just wants our family to die!"
"Fortunately, I found it early today, otherwise if our family had lunch, wouldn't we all be dead ghosts!" said this, Zhang shivered, and said with palpitations.
