Chapter 44 Miss White Lotus Watch 3(1/2)
Mrs. Lu sent someone to spread the word that Bo came to Rongshoutang and said that Lu Mingyuan wanted to get married.
Bai Shi chuckled: "I have been thinking that my niece is weak and afraid of being tired of her. I didn't expect that Chongxi is mine. Fortunately, Mingyuan thought that it would be great if her niece could get better."
Mrs. Lu smiled and said, "If I don't talk about you, I didn't expect it to come. It's still Mingyuan, the child, is full of money."
Bai flattered: "It's all your tutors." Mrs. Lu pity Lu Mingyuan's father for being weak and incompetent. His mother came from a declining gentry. She was afraid that his subordinates would neglect him, so she adopted this grandson.
Mrs. Lu shook her head and laughed: "Let's stop selling melons here. I didn't know it before. Now I know it, so I should get things done."
Bo's handkerchief pressed the corner of his mouth: "What my mother said is, please ask her to find a good day for them."
Mrs. Lu nodded: "What I want is July now, and everything is not appropriate. When August, I will give Mingyuan and Yuer the horoscopes of Master Cirong and ask her to calculate a good day."
July is the month of ghosts. On the first day of the day, the ghost gate in the underworld is wide open. The evil ghosts come to the world and will not leave until the thirty-day Ghost Gate. Therefore, July is the month with the heaviest yin energy in the year, and everything is not appropriate.
Bo: "What my mother said is, I'm sorry, you are worried."
After Bai left, Mrs. Lu went to the small Buddhist temple to recite a scripture, lay in bed at night, and it took a long time to fall asleep.
Under the same starry sky, Ayu didn't fall asleep. In August, something happened to Yan Jiayu, so she didn't know until she died. Lu Mingyuan once wanted to marry her.
Ayu turned over. Mrs. Lu Bai's words sounded very ordinary at first glance, but when they had doubts, they felt subtle everywhere.
At the same time, the sleepy nurse Song thought about the broken bottle of medicine and couldn't sleep. She was hesitant to ask for it again. One was afraid of being scolded; the other was that she was raised by her own milk. How could she not have feelings? Taking less medicine may lead to two more days of living.
The hesitant nurse Song struggled for two days. Before she could find a result, the other party took the initiative to find her.
"The master got a box of high-end purple brushes and ordered me to deliver them to all the girls." Zhong's family gave two rectangular boxes.
This master is Lu Maodian, the head of the Lu family, and is currently the Minister of Rites.
The nurse Song took it with both hands.
Ayu smiled and said, "Thank you for your second uncle."
Zhong Quan's family asked again how good the cousin was?
The fishing road is good.
After a few greetings, the wet nurse Song personally went out to show respect. The whole family came on behalf of Lu Maodian, so naturally he should not be looked down upon.
Ayu, who noticed that the two of them had sued each other before leaving, narrowed his eyes slightly.
Zhong and his family were warmly holding the nurse Song out of the yard, and kept walking forward, saying lively and polite words.
After walking a while, Zhong Quan's family's smile remained unchanged, and he lowered his voice and said, "Double the amount."
The smile of the nurse Song froze immediately, and her face thrust: "Why?"
Zhong Quan's family lifted his eyelids and smiled slightly: "Your second boy should be a job, but if you think about where to go, why not go to his father and have some care."
The husband of the nurse Song is the manager of a pawnshop and is an old servant of the Yan family. Of course, the pawnshop is now owned by the Lu family.
The nurse Song, who heard the threat inside, dared not ask any more questions and said, "I was about to tell you that I didn't hold the medicine bottle this morning and broke it."
Zhong Quan's family's eyes turned cold: "Did you break it today?"
Hutie Song didn't dare to lie again: "Da Qianer, Da Qianer, I didn't dare to say that the old sister spared me this time, and I won't dare to do it again in the future."
Zhong Quan's family narrowed their eyes: "There is no turning back arrow when you open the bow, don't be confused."
The wet nurse Song was sweating in cold sweat: "No, no."
Zhong and his family looked at the empty surroundings: "I won't say much, you understand. Come here tomorrow to get some tricks."
The lady Song should be.
Zhong and his family patted the hand of the nurse Song and laughed loudly, "It's time for the old sister to send it here. Hurry up and go back to serve the cousin. If there is anything missing, just send someone to say it."
Hutie Song smiled: "Old sister walk slowly, let's have a drink when you have time."
When he turned around, he saw the cat in the grass. The guilty lady Song was shocked, covered her chest and stomped her feet.
"Meow~" Xiaoguai shouted lazily, turned around and ran away.
Mengmeng Song patted her chest and went back to the house as if nothing had happened. She saw Ayu carefully adjusting the incense, with a lot of bottles and jars, which was dazzling. Her movements were orderly, with long and curly eyelashes flashing, like flying black butterflies. Her eyes raised her eyes and looked over. Her pupils were black and bright, as if they were full of stars and moonlight. Mengmeng Song staggered her eyes: "Miss has adjusted it for a while, let's rest, be tired carefully."
Ayu's hand kept moving: "I'm not tired, and there is nothing to do." This was a great gift from the Sixth Prince and Princess Jinyang, and only a few medicines were missing. There was a pharmacy in the Lu Mansion, but she couldn't ask for it, which may lead to doubt. It's not the time to tear the face.
When she let Princess Jinyang and the Sixth Prince suffer the consequences, she will tell which one in this mansion is a human and a ghost. If she fulfills these two wishes, she will be able to break up.
Even if she is a helpless orphan, she is also an orphan of a martyr. Her poison and the huge property of the Yan family are the best evidence. She has no account book in her hand, and she doesn't even know how much wealth the Yan family has. However, gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings are so greedy, and the industries that have been recorded in the yamen cannot disappear out of thin air. As long as she is willing to check, she can definitely find clues.
...
After lunch, Ayu hugged the cat and went to bed for lunch. It was not Bo or Mrs. Lu, but it was Lu Maodian.
Yan Jiayu committed suicide. The entire Lu family's master had a motive for murder. Marrying alive would harm the interests of everyone in the Lu family. The higher the status in the Lu family, the greater the loss. Lu Maodian instructed the nurse Song to kill Yan Jiayu, but Ayu was not surprised.
However, half a year ago, Lu Maodian began to poison Yan Jiayu and wanted to kill him, but Ayu couldn't understand it.
Whether Yan Jiayu's life or death will not affect the Yan family's property falling into the hands of the Lu family. The difference is how they divide the spoils between the three bedrooms. If Yan Jiayu married into the eldest house alive, the eldest house is more qualified. Even if Yan Jiayu died of illness early, the eldest house is more qualified than the second house and the third house. Moreover, the eldest house is the eldest house. According to the rules, the Lu family's family business will be inherited by Lu Mingyuan.
However, rules are rules, reality is reality, reality is that long-term houses are weak, second- and third-bedrooms are strong, no matter whether Yan Jiayu is alive or dead, there are not many long-term houses. When the Yan family had an accident, only widows and children were left in the long-term houses. I am afraid that they don’t know how much property the Lu family took from the Yan family, and there is no one to support them, so where can they earn a second- and third-bedroom houses?
On the contrary, when Yan Jiayu died, Lu Mingyuan married Princess Jinyang and had Prince An as his backer. The eldest son's house was very likely to grab more houses and threaten the second house's status in the mansion.
It is impossible for Lu Maodian to be the head of the Lu family to be the Minister of the Lu family. He could not understand this truth, but he still took the risk of poisoning his niece. He wanted to be a good uncle, and he wanted Lu Mingyuan to use the east wind of Prince An's mansion to restore the Lu family's former glory, and even to damage the interests of his own room.
Or is it someone who is loyal to the whole family, or is there something else here?
Ayu rubbed his temples. The water from Lu Mansion was even muddy than she thought. Suddenly a light flashed in her mind and her eyes widened.
If the whole family followed Lu Maodian's orders and increased the dosage this time, it was obviously because Lu Mingyuan proposed to get married. So how did Lu Maodian know?
Maoer didn't notice that Mrs. Lu and Lu Maodian mentioned this? Or was it that Lu Maodian got the news from others? Who is this other person?
Ayu's expression changed a few times. At this moment, he focused on Lu Maodian.
Husband Song went to Zhong Quan's family to get a look. The old mothers with shame no longer had to work themselves, but only needed to call the maids and mothers to do things. Therefore, from time to time, she could gather together to eat, drink and read gambling cards. Therefore, no one would think about the beauty of Husband Song coming to Zhong Quan's family to get a look.
When she went back, Mum Song not only held a flowery look but also a heavy bottle of poison.
This time, Ayu did not let the cat overturn again, but swallowed it halfway, as if he couldn't bear the bitterness and nausea, and vomited it all out.
The lady Song, who was covered in medicine, screamed in surprise and subconsciously spat twice, thinking that he had taken the poison himself. Although Zhong and his family said that taking this medicine was not a problem, the lady Song, who watched Yan Jiayu's body decline, was afraid!
After spitting twice, realizing that Ayu and the maids were looking at her, the lady Song turned pale and realized that she had overreacted.
Ayu lowered his eyes slightly: "I'm sorry, the wet nurse, this medicine is too bitter, I can't help it."
The heartbeat of the nurse Song missed, thinking that it was because of the excessive medicine. She felt even more nervous and said calmly: "It's bitter, it's bitter. The old slave has also been bitter. Add more sugar next time."
Ayu smiled slightly.
For a moment, the wet nurse Song did not dare to look her in the eyes. She turned around and ordered the maid to change clothes for Ayu, and called someone to clean the floor, and said, "I'll have someone boil another bowl of medicine."
Ayu shook his head: "I'm going out soon, let's talk about it when I come back." If you can drink less, drink less. If you can't, you can only drink with your teeth. You can still hold on. However, the antidote must be prepared as soon as possible. There is no need to completely detoxify. The evidence of detoxification will be gone. As long as the toxicity is controlled and the toxicity will not continue to deteriorate.
It took an hour to decoct the medicine, and it was too late. The lady Song thought for a while and said, "There are people coming and going outside. If there is a collision, what should I do? The girl might as well pray to the moon and beg for tricks in the mansion."
Ayu shook his head: "I haven't gone out for a long time, I want to go out for some breath."
Today is the Chinese Valentine's Day, and the government held a temple fair. It has been thirty years since its founding. The world is peaceful, the politics is clear, and the people live and work in peace. As the capital, Jianye City is extremely prosperous, and every New Year Festival is even more lively, with various temple fairs and performances emerging one after another.
This Chinese Valentine's Day, also known as Valentine's Day, is even more lively. Ayu is going to join in the fun and take advantage of the chaos to get some medicine.
Seeing that the nurse Song couldn't persuade him, she stopped persuaded him and went back to the house to change his clothes.
Ayu, who had changed his clothes, went to Rongshoutang.
Old Mrs. Lu held Ayu's hand and sat beside her, with every wrinkle on her face engraved with love. Ayu thought to herself, she was really a mature person. Although there was no direct evidence, she tended to be the old lady knowing everything Yan Jiayu suffered. But who could tell when she looked at this kind and loving face.
"It's good to go out for a walk. If you stay at home all day, you'll be bored." Mrs. Lu turned to look at Lu Ruoling and Lu Ruoqi who were about to go out: "Yuer is weak, please take care of her more."
"Why are you feeling weak? Do you have some self-knowledge?" Lu Ruoling muttered, and everyone present heard it.
The fourth girl next to him heard it and glanced at Lu Ruoling. The idiot is a idiot. Lu Ruoling is the legitimate daughter of the second wife. She is the same age as Lu Ruoling, and she has a lot of resentment towards her. Every time she quarreled, Lu Ruoling would yell that she would bully her without a father and cry for her dead uncle, which led to her being scolded. How could Lu Ruoling not hate her?
Mrs. Lu also had a headache, and both prospered and lost. Lu Ruoling had a bad reputation and her daughter and granddaughter would also be affected. More than once, she secretly complained that Bai and the old lady were too spoiled, and Lu Ruoling just had to deal with it. If she taught her a few lessons, she would not dare to do this. But the old lady and Bai were reluctant to let her go. What else could she do as an aunt? If she said one more thing, she would be a mean niece who lost her father.
Ayu's voice was low, and a misty mist appeared in his eyes: "Then I won't go."
Mrs. Lu glanced at Bai.
Bo felt embarrassed and glared at Lu Ruoling: "What are you saying, why don't you apologize to your cousin quickly."
Lu Ruoling turned his face and refused to cooperate.
In front of so many people, Bo Shi felt even more shameless: "What's your attitude?"
A Yushan said understandingly: "Don't be angry, my third cousin is just kidding me."
"Don't be hypocritical." Lu Ruoling turned his face and glared at Ayu angrily.
Ayu's face was stiff.
Bai Shi blushed: "Bastard, I think you don't go out, just reflect at home."
When Lu Ruoling heard this, he was so worried that he would go to see Mrs. Lu: "Grandma!"
Mrs. Lu's face sank: "The bigger you get, the worse you are. Why do you talk to your cousin? You won't apologize."
Ayubu busy road is not needed.
