Snow fell outside the window, seemingly there but not at all.
The Huaiyuan was quite peaceful since the second manager Lian was away. Liu Ruhai stood under the snow eaves and looked at the falling snow in the sky. When he walked around in the yard from time to time, he could occasionally hear the servants of the Huaiyuan talking in small words. Or the wet nurse or the mother-in-law.
The children were whispering.
Everyone is doubting Mrs. Hou, saying that she cannot tolerate a concubine.
Liu Ruhai's vision is not limited to the wife and stepson. He knows that even he can't judge the young master's condition. It may be the epidemic, or he may be poisoned. If he is poisoned, it is 80% similar to Cao Xiwan. And if she is poisoned
After finishing the exercise and returning to the inner chamber, the people in the yamen will really benefit.
——Who took over her errand?
I heard that Qingluo Biying is a pair of close friends.
Liu Ruhai took a bath and rested. He leaned on the blue jade heart pillow and thought, his hands pressed behind his head. He looked at the dark tent roof, the green shadow ghost Su Jintian who took over the city inspection department?
The best sword in the world.
Late at night, while she was sleeping, she still felt cold and heard the sound of snow falling on branches outside the window.
When she got up early in the morning, she looked at the two Tangbaosi You Wen under the quilt, and next to her was Yanzhi, who was leaning against her tightly and sweating from the heat. She smiled and brought tea to Yanzhi: "Girl, drink some water."
Yanzhi smiled and spat at her.
She rubbed her hands, thinking that Yanzhi was in good health, like a ball of fire. She was a bad-tempered woman. She opened the door and entered the corridor, and saw green shadows and broken snow in the yard.
The pine trees and bamboo branches in the corner of the courtyard were broken by several days of snow.
It turns out that I didn’t hear it wrong in my dream.
Cao Xi was working as an errand in the main house at night, and she stayed in Mrs. Hou's loft, refusing to move. She pretended to be doing needlework seriously. She didn't move no matter who asked her. She said she wanted to embroider shoe uppers for the wife, so she couldn't take the time.
.
Lou Shuluan had previously suspected that she had a hidden agenda and was spying on his wife because of Master Hou's advice. Mrs. Hou was heartbroken.
However, Mrs. Chen saw the clues and whispered to the wife: "It doesn't matter, she is afraid of the cold. And she is lazy. Among the girls in our room, who is not better at needlework than her? Who wants to use hers?"
"
Lou Shuluan was speechless and ignored her.
Cao Xiwan worked diligently on needlepoint. Mother Chen inquired about what was going on in Huaiyuan every day and came back to report to Mrs. Hou. Of course she listened a few times. I heard that in Huaiyuan, she asked for food from the kitchen for two days in a row.
The hot water chestnut cake was for Dr. Liu who was invited, so she knew the note had been delivered.
So that’s it.
"Who can enter the tea room of Jianghe Guan?" Yanzhi shook her head, "She is staring at her. Although she is talkative and talkative, she has a delicate heart. Especially these days, she is becoming more and more careful. No one is allowed to enter the tea room.
."
Did Jianghe find out that he had used the wrong porcelain for her?
Cao Xiwan thought, maybe it was because she insisted on watching Jianghe wash the teacup last time that Jianghe became suspicious?
Maybe no one can enter the tea room and put the note quietly.
Will be discovered by Jianghe.
Of course, Cao Xiwan realized that it was impossible, so after thinking about it for a few days, she found that there was another way to pass the note. So she tried it on Liu Ruhai.
She just used soft rice cakes, baked them until they became sticky, and smeared them on both sides of the note she had prepared. When her mother-in-law brought tea, she stopped to grab some melon seeds, but her mother-in-law did not dare to stop her. She
He was joking and stuffing the sticky note into the tea tray while the mother-in-law wasn't paying attention.
Anyway, it might have been stuck to the saucer or tea tray. As long as it was stuck, someone would catch it. In the end, it was Liu Ruhai who caught it.
[Toxic] At least 50% of this note fell into her hands because of this?
She thought for a while, then asked Bai Zhi again: "Only the second time I came back to greet my wife and have tea. Who else came to our yard that day?"
"The ladies and their girls are here. You and yours are here to have some fun."
"..." She sighed, "You want to come, and all the girls who come with you are big girls?"
"Of course it is."
Only the eldest girl dared to stop the servant woman from catching melon seeds when the guests couldn't see her.
Otherwise, ask someone to file a complaint and let the supervisor know about it. If you do not follow the rules, you will be punished.
She stood alone in the corridor, thinking about who the eldest girls in front of the ladies were. Yanzhi pushed her quietly and took her back to the room to talk.
Yanzhi was also a child of Nankang Houfu. After several days, there was nothing she could not find out: "The doctor surnamed Liu is quite famous in the capital. I heard that he is a family friend of Pingnanbo's house. He is new to the capital.
There are also relatives in the palace in Yanjing City."
"...Isn't that Doctor Nv Pulse?" Cao Xiwan asked cautiously. It would be a pity that Yanzhi doesn't do fanzi.
"Just trust him, Lord Marquis. He showed it to the Second Master and the Sixth Master, and they all agreed. Besides, think about it -" Yanzhi whispered in his room, and secretly gave him a wink, then swallowed it.
Cao Xiwan only let Cao Xiwan think about these few words. Of course Cao Xiwan understood that besides the imperial doctor, the best doctor for children should be Doctor Feng. That is someone from his wife’s shop. Yanzhi echoed:
"You haven't come into the house for a few days. I don't know, but a few days after the wedding, the young master came to say hello to his wife early. He felt a little coughing when he got back."
Cao Xiwan thought that this was the real reason for the quarrel between Mr. Hou and Mrs. Hou.
She had never heard the Marquis mention the Immortality Pill before.
In fact, Mr. Hou doesn’t really believe in Dan or Bhutan.
Now, after Liu Ruhai entered the house, the Marquis may not think so. She had already got the news from Granny Ma, saying that Liu Ruhai's prescription seemed to be detoxifying. Madam happened to have a rare pill outside.
She also asked: "Although the young master's illness is recovering, Mr. Liu said it is getting worse?"
"I heard that's the case." Yanzhi nodded, a little anxious for Mrs. Hou, "Master Hou paid a lot of money to hire Dr. Liu to keep watch. People outside said that he was treating the second and sixth masters. He also said that he wanted to see the old aunt.
.Otherwise, how can our wife sit still?"
Yanzhi huddled with her in the bed tent, whispering softly. Yanzhi envied her, "Why, the Marquis just likes my wife, and even such a big thing is blocked by my wife."
After saying that, he was suddenly startled again and looked at Cao Xiwan hesitantly.
Madam Cao smiled and said: "I heard that the Fifth Master likes you very much. But the old lady didn't agree?"
"You bad hooves!" Yanzhi jumped up.
Cao Xiwan thought, sure enough, I heard that Yanzhi was transferred to the main room to avoid the fifth master. He obviously likes to cultivate flowers and grass and practice Taoism, but he cares so much about women.
No wonder the old lady doesn't like him. Although the fifth master used to be the favorite concubine of the old marquis.
If Song Chengming hadn't married the old lady's clan daughter, the fifth master might have been made the heir during the old marquis's lifetime.
Liu Ruhai went back to his home in the back alley outside the mansion in the evening. He knew that Cao Xiwan was in the main room now and could not leave the hospital. He was either guarding the Nuan Pavilion with his wife or staying in the girl's room every day.
She hasn't been home for almost half a month, and the Cao family yard is empty.
It was getting late, so he brought a lantern from home. By the light, he saw layers of snow on the eaves and jujube trees of his neighbor's house, and a layer of snow fell in front of his door.
At a glance, it was obvious that Father Cao and Aunt Wu of this family had been staying at the house for several days and would not come out.
Neighbor Liu Ruhai watched the snow falling thinly, with slight shadows in the dim yellow light.
He sighed. It had only been half a month since the Cao family had been alone. But he seemed to be used to coming home from medical appointments every day. The house across the street was noisy. The Cao family's daughter taught her parents every day not to be fooled or bullied, and she scolded the neighbors casually.
Good people.
But now, it's too quiet.
He took some useful medicinal materials and put them in the package. When he left, Sister Huo had just come to the yard to clean up at this time, and she quickly saluted: "Young official."
He nodded.
This is a female fan, but he can tell it. If she dares to steal his things, he will find Mrs. Cao from the opposite family.
