Chapter 1211 The Poisonous Lantern

When the servant girl came to report that those wives had left, Jiang Caiyue rolled her eyes, and Qi Nanqin smiled and said, "Look at you, don't you look like a general's wife?"

Jiang Caiyue said: "What should the general's wife look like? Do you have to bear it if you don't like it? I don't have such a good temper."

Mrs. Su smiled and said: "Exactly, the general's wife is not those civil servants' wives, she should have such a temper. It's a pity that my Wudi family still refuses to marry a wife, and I don't know what kind of woman he likes. Just worry with me, what he said is that he has been fighting outside all year round, and marrying a daughter-in-law is also a widow, listen, does this sound like what a son said to his mother?"

Qi Nanqin covered her mouth and said with a smile: "It just so happens that he doesn't need to lead the army to fight this time, so hurry up and marry him a wife."

Mrs. Su said: "I like to hear what my mother-in-law said. Didn't I show him a few places these days, but he just said that the girl is young, but he doesn't think about it. He will be 28 after the New Year. I Where are we going to find someone who is almost as unmarried as him? Can't you find someone who has been married before?"

"What do the in-laws think? Are you really waiting for him to find a wife?"

"Hey, how about children are the debts of parents. I'm really waiting for him to bring me a daughter-in-law. I guess my grandson will be delayed."

While talking, Yuxiang came in from the outside, holding a lantern in her hand, the lantern was red, with dots of snow plum painted on it, and the branches outlined in black, it looked very elegant, but Qi Nanqin frowned slightly when she saw it, "Where did this lantern come from?"

The death of the rich man Jiang was not publicized, but those who want to know will always know, so in order not to be used by those who want to make a fuss, this year the general's mansion did not hang lanterns or post couplets. This red lantern should not Appear.

Yuxiang said: "Just now there were some children around the door for New Year's greetings, so I went out and got some candy for them, and they stuffed this lantern for me. I couldn't throw it away, so I brought it in because it looked pretty .”

In Jinchi City every year in the first month of the year, there is a custom of children from poor families going door to door to pay New Year's greetings. They all say auspicious words, and they are also very popular with some rich families. They don't need to prepare many things for New Year's greetings, just give them a few pieces of candy or A few pennies can make them happy for a long time, so everyone wants to be happy and happy.

But such a beautiful lantern is not like those children can give away, not to mention the workmanship, even the paintings on it, it is not like children from poor families are willing to buy.

Jiang Caiyue took the lantern from her hand, saw that there was a candle inside, took the candle out of the lantern, put it in her nose and smelled it, her face changed slightly, she smelled it in the candle. When it comes to the faint medicinal taste, it is a little bitter, astringent and fragrant.

Jiang Caiyue got up and went out and asked the servant girl to get a chicken. She put the chicken in an empty room, scraped off a little candle, put it in a bowl, lit it with an oiled wick, exited the room, and closed the doors and windows.

At first, everyone didn't understand what Jiang Caiyue was going to do, but after a while, they heard the sound of chickens fluttering inside, accompanied by some miserable crowing, which made everyone feel anxious, but soon the crowing stopped. There was no more sound from inside.

Mrs. Su, Qi Nanqin, Yuxiang, and the servants who watched the excitement behind were all stunned. If the general's wife hadn't known medical skills, she could see that there was poison in the candle. If anyone really lit such a candle, the whole family would probably die. .
