Chapter 52 Brother-in-law is Long Aotian (04)
Mrs. Li is arrogant and never bothers to say anything to a slave who makes a mistake. Moreover, Mrs. Li trusts Lu Fanxing's judgment. Since Lu Fanxing thinks there is something wrong with the plate of red bean cake given by Xiaocui without tasting it, then there is something wrong.
Let Xiaocui eat the red bean cake in question, which is a reasonable and reasonable solution.
If you are poisoned, you will die. If you are unjust if you are not poisonous, you will be compensated by the compensation.
Of course, Mrs. Li relied on her intuition to determine that there was something wrong with the red bean cake. Mrs. Li was very angry. Naturally, she was not angry at Lu Fanxing for putting the problem with the red bean cake out in the open, but she was angry at the mess in the entire Lu Mansion.
Yes, last time I only dealt with the maid serving beside the lady.
Now it seems that a large-scale cleanup is needed.
It's hard to say that Xiao Cui just thought that she had kicked out Yong Xia, who was serving beside Lu Mingyan, and wanted to avenge Yong Xia, so she boldly poisoned the cake.
The more she thought about it, the more Li felt that this was the case, and her eyes even showed a fierce look.
"If you don't want to eat it? Haha, it makes me suspect that something is put in this plate of pastries."
Xiaocui didn't dare to admit it, so she could only shudder and carefully eat the plate of red bean cake.
In fact, it is not accurate to say that it is poisoned. Let’s put it this way, it is just a little something that can make people physically and mentally unhappy.
Lu Fanxing could smell it. It was during his life as Jia She that he not only learned how to disguise himself as a magic stick, but also learned how to make alchemy and medicine. There was also the life as the Lord of Ye City, although the days passed year after year.
It's boring, but what Lu Fanxing learned will be beneficial to who knows which life in the future.
The five senses are trained. Not only is the hearing sharp, but the sense of smell is also super sharp.
The red bean cake is very fragrant, not only the original flavor of the food, but also other spices may have been added to slightly cover up the taste of croton.
For Lu Fanxing, who has a keen sense of smell, the smell of croton is very special. As soon as he smells it, he can smell it. Lu Fanxing is too lazy to guess the reason why Xiaocui sprinkles croton powder into the red bean cake. He just wants him to have diarrhea. To him,
A small punishment but a big warning.
Are you eligible?
Lu Fanxing was so ridiculed that he threw him directly to Li.
Ms. Li is very experienced in dealing with decent slaves. At least after Xiaocui was forced to eat the red bean cake with added ingredients, it would be best if nothing happened. If something happened, I'm afraid the end would be no better than being sold out.
No, after Xiaocui ate the cake, she started farting and had diarrhea on the spot.
Li's face suddenly became very ugly, and she almost gritted her teeth and said.
"Very good, very good." Mrs. Li sneered and said, "I didn't expect that the slaves in my yard would actually do things that harmed my master."
Xiaocui clutched her stomach and begged for mercy, saying that her mother had threatened her to do it.
"See if I believe it or not." Mrs. Li signaled the housekeeper to ask for help from the family, and at the same time she sent someone to invite her. "The fourth lady is indeed quite stupid, but she doesn't have the guts to harm Brother Xing. Neither does I."
I'm too lazy to ask who is the mastermind behind it, but they can only control those few things."
"Hit me hard." Mrs. Li announced the verdict against Xiao Cui and also said, "By the way, housekeeper, Xiao Cui is a son of the family. Originally, for the sake of the master, I only dealt with Yong Xia. Now look at it.
Come on, I was merciful and cleared out all Xiaocui's relatives and friends and sold them all together."
"Okay, ma'am." The housekeeper replied, "Would you like to tell the master?"
Li: "Of course I have to tell you. Brother Xing is not only my darling, but also my only son. If something happens to Brother Xing in front of my eyes, I'm afraid my master will be so angry that he will directly take it out on me."
.”
It's hard to guarantee that it wasn't for this reason that Xiao Cui chose to attack Lu Fanxing.
"Butler, arrange for people to keep a close eye on Brother Xing's yard. No other cats or dogs can enter Brother Xing's yard."
The housekeeper nodded and said, "Madam, you are a lady, do you need to arrange a new maid?"
"Don't make any arrangements for now." Ms. Li sneered: "Since I have leisure time, I plan on plotting against my wife together with my biological aunt. If I don't take revenge and go back, wouldn't I be considered a very easy to bully lady?"
"Tell me, madam. If you still want to be the daughter of the Lu family, just be honest and keep to yourself. If you don't want to, I won't be able to deal with their sisters, not even their biological aunts."
At this time, Li's wet nurse, He, suddenly came forward and said, "I guess this lady wants to compete with the young master."
"Compared with Brother Xing? Are they worthy?" Li said disdainfully: "Brother Xing is in my wife's name and is my wife's child. He is a legitimate son. How can they compare to sisters?"
The housekeeper was silent, it was indeed incomparable. Even if Lu Fanxing was not recorded in the name of the Li family and did not change from a concubine to a legitimate son, Lu Mingfei, Lu Mingqiu and Lu Mingyan were incomparable.
Even Lu Mingfei, Lu Mingqiu, and Lu Mingyan are not even half as good as Lu Mingzhu.
You can tell it from the name.
Lu Mingzhu's name comes from Palm Pearl.
The names of sisters Lu Mingfei, Lu Mingqiu and Lu Mingyan are related to the weather.
When Lu Mingfei was born, it was said that the rain was falling, so he was named Lu Mingfei. Lu Mingqiu was born in autumn, so he was named Mingqiu. As for Lu Mingyan, she was born during the Spring Festival, and it was rare to encounter a good day with clear weather, so she was named Lu Mingyan
name.
They all come from the 'Ming' generation. As for Lu Fanxing, he does not come from the 'Ming' generation, but from the 'Traditional' generation. In fact, the Lu family's generation comes from the 'Traditional' generation.
Rather than the character 'Ming'.
In other words, this girl who was born as a concubine was actually ranked with Lu Mingzhu.
Almost everyone in the Lu family understands this. I think a sister who is a concubine should also understand, but they just pretend to be confused. They earn everything, compete with everything, and don't even think about how they can compete?
Is it comparable?
The standard heart is higher than the sky, and life is thinner than paper.
Now that Ms. Li has spared time, she doesn't talk about rectification, but just takes care of their "loyal" maids. The girls immediately become no different from tigers with their teeth pulled out. They want to make trouble, but unfortunately the whole family has their own aunts.
There is no right to speak at all.
I can only continue to cultivate my moral character in accordance with Li's arrangements honestly and humiliatingly.
Oh, you ask how to cultivate your moral character?
Is there anything in this world that is more self-cultivating than copying Buddhist scriptures?
Li deeply felt that Lu Mingqiu and Lu Mingyan were fighting like cockfighting tomorrow simply because they were too busy. In the same way, the evaluation of being too busy could also be applied to Lu Mingfei. Since she was too busy, that's why messy things happened.
Come out and get busy.
No, after Xiaocui's incident happened, Li not only punished her sister by copying Buddhist scriptures, but also arranged needlework, cooking and other courses. Lu Mingfei was not convinced, even when it came to Mr. Lu, Li
There are good reasons too.
It is said that noble girls from aristocratic families are raised in this way. Not to mention proficiency, at least they must be good at needlework, cooking and other talents.
"It's hard for others to talk about the Lu family girls. They don't have any good reputations. When it comes to what kind of talents they are proficient in, we can't say that the Lu family girls are different and are good at fighting."
Mr. Lu: ""
Speaking of a concubine, Mr. Lu felt a pain in his forehead.
Speaking of his only son, Mr. Lu became more excited.
"Brother Xing, how have you been reading lately?" Mr. Lu asked with concern.
Li replied: "It's okay. I think that this time I will be blessed by my ancestors and become a scholar."
"I hope so."
As soon as these words came out, Master Lu was glared at by Mrs. Li.
"What did you say, Master?" Li said angrily: "Brother Xing failed to pass the exam the first two times because of insufficient preparation and a sudden bad health, so he failed. This time Brother Xing failed to pass the exam.
If you are careful, you will definitely be on the list."
"Okay, okay, I said the wrong thing." Mr. Lu was pleased with Li's motherly heart, so he didn't care about Li's anger. He just talked and brought the topic back to Lu Mingfei and Lu Mingqiu.
"It seems it's my fault, sir. I thought my wife didn't have the energy to raise a concubine, so I let their respective aunts raise them. Who knew that the more they were raised, the more they would become crooked."
"It's not all my aunt's fault, it's mainly the maid who harbors evil intentions." Ms. Li said matter-of-factly: "One by one, they followed the girl and waited on her. They didn't want to think about the girl wholeheartedly, but they focused on the young master."
Speaking of this, Mrs. Li felt angry and couldn't help but say: "Brother Xing has followed the rules since he was a child and was taught by famous teachers. How could he touch the maids around my sisters?"
Mr. Lu nodded and agreed: "The sales are good."
"Isn't that right?" Mrs. Li said again: "Originally, I planned to arrange new people to serve the girls after disposing of the maids. But I was feeling a little angry, so I wanted to take it easy for a few days, or...
Arrange young and pretty maids to accompany the girls, but "
After a pause, Mrs. Li continued to speak, but she asked Mr. Lu. "Master, do you know that an old nun who was released from the palace came to our county? I thought privately that the rules in the palace are the most strict, so why not
I invited the old nanny over and asked her to teach the girls the rules."
Mr. Lu fell into deep thought.
Mrs. Li was not in a hurry for Mr. Lu's reply. While Mr. Lu was deep in thought, Mrs. Li had some fruit snacks brought over, and made a pot of good tea. While drinking tea and eating fruit snacks, she slowly waited for Mr. Lu.
Finished thinking.
After a while, Mr. Lu came back to his senses.
"Just do as Madam said." Mr. Lu said, "I don't ask them to marry into a good family. In the future, they will help Brother Xing, and at least don't hold him back."
Mrs. Li nodded, and then smiled happily: "Then Master, just follow what I said and invite the old nanny to teach the girls the rules."
Mr. Lu: "Excuse me, madam."
Mrs. Li smiled again and said, "I hope the girls won't be able to bear the harshness and run to the master or brother Xing to cry again. I will really be unkind to my mother."
