Zhu Men Ji Shi

Chapter 281 The toxicity of oleander is really powerful
After the meal, Xiaotao personally brought tea to Du Juan. Du Juan hesitated for a moment, but said softly, "Leave it first."

Xiao Tao smiled slightly: "This is sweet-scented osmanthus tea. The meals just now were all meat dishes. This cup of tea can just relieve my sister's greasy."

Du Juan raised his eyebrows and said, "Since that's the case, why did my sister bring a cup?"

Xiaotao smiled and said, "I'm pregnant now, so I can't drink tea."

Du Juan asked, "What does my sister drink?"

She deliberately asked to the end, wanting to see if she was playing any tricks.

This time, Xia Jiu brought another cup of warm honey citron tea, and said cautiously: "Girl often drinks this citron tea recently, it's sweet and sour, with a bit of bitterness, just enough to suppress the nausea when you are sick. "

Du Juan's eyes flickered, and he said suddenly, "I've never tasted such a fresh thing." After finishing speaking, he picked it up and smelled it. Xia Jiu opened his mouth to stop him, but he still didn't dare to say anything. exit.

Seeing this, Xiaotao said, "Then invite my sister to try something new. I'll drink this cup of sweet-scented osmanthus tea."

Du Juan took a sip and felt that the taste was good, then he stared closely at Xiaotao to see if she dared to drink the sweet-scented osmanthus tea in the cup.

Xiao Tao lowered her head, hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the cup to drink.

The fragrant sweet-scented osmanthus tea looks simple and unpretentious, but it is actually sweet and pleasant. A large spoonful of sweet-scented osmanthus honey is added to the light tea, and a sip of it will leave your teeth full of fragrance.

Xiaotao didn't like to drink tea before, but this bowl of tea won her heart.

Du Juan walked away triumphantly, and when he arrived, he did not forget to taunt her a few words. "No wonder, the second young master likes my sister so much. My sister's ability to serve others is really careful and thoughtful. You have put a lot of thought into this meal today, and you are still sincere. As long as you are obedient and careful in the future, I will As a sister, she will naturally not treat you badly."

Xiaotao nodded calmly, and said gently: "Thank you, my lord, for being generous. Forgive my sister for being ignorant in the past. My sister will send my sister off respectfully. In the morning, my sister will personally prepare tea and snacks for her."

Du Juan glanced at her, smiled, then turned and left.

Xiaotao watched her going away, and let out a sigh of relief.

Xia Jiu immediately took a step forward, leaned into her ear and whispered, "The girl guessed right. It's a good thing we didn't release anything, otherwise it would be troublesome."

Xiao Tao said softly: "She has so many thoughts, so it's not easy to fool her. Besides, I can't let her die in my room."

Xia Jiu nodded slightly: "Girl purposely made her unsuspecting, so that it would be easy to attack."

Xiaotao said silently in her heart, and let her spend the night in self-satisfaction.

The servants' rooms are usually shared by four people, and sometimes there is not enough space because of the arrival of newcomers, and even five or six people are crowded together.It's okay if it's winter, but now it's midsummer, everyone is crowded together on the Datong Kang, so it's naturally uncomfortable.

Du Juan, as the big maid next to the second young master, naturally doesn't need to be crowded with those little maids, she can sleep comfortably by herself.

Seeing that Xiaotao had given in to the softness and lowered her head, she was very proud of herself, thinking, in this way, even if she was in front of the second young master in the future, no matter how favored she was, she would be trampled under her feet in the end, forever. No future.I thought she was tough, but I didn't expect to be unable to hold on so soon.In this way, even if she can really give birth to the eldest son for the second young master in the future, she must act according to her own will.

Thinking of this, Du Juan felt much more at ease.

Early in the morning, Xiaotao really did what she said, and came over with snacks and tea to wait for Du Juan to get up and freshen up.

Du Juan lazily watched her pour tea and water for herself, smiled and said: "Sister, I feel a little embarrassed by doing this. You are still pregnant anyway, so let others do the rough work." .”

Xiaotao respectfully said: "It should be a younger sister's job to serve her."

Du Juan turned over and got out of bed, walked to the table and looked at the snack box she brought. There were eight compartments inside, each compartment contained a piece of pastry, which looked very delicate.

Xiaotao said with a smile: "This is the snack fruit I personally prepared, please ask my sister to taste it, how does it taste?"

Du Juan didn't hesitate this time, it wasn't that she was completely wary of Xiao Tao, but she just didn't believe that she dared to design herself so blatantly, so she simply picked up a piece and ate it.

Who knows, she just took a bite and frowned bitterly.

She was about to open her mouth to spit it out, but found that the bitter juice inside had been left down her throat.

Du Juan immediately threw the dim sum on the ground, glared at Xiaotao and said, "What's inside?"

Xiaotao smiled slightly and said, "I specially prepared something good for my sister. It tastes good."

Xiaotao intentionally kept a few steps away from her, so that even if Du Juan rushed over suddenly, she wouldn't be able to hurt herself for a while.

When Du Juan heard this, it was as if someone had hit him hard with a sap, and he knew something was wrong, his forehead twitched wildly, but before he could react, his heart suddenly tightened, as if someone had tightly strangled him with a rope Like.

Xiaotao watched her fall to the ground with a pale face, her hands were tightly clutching her chest, her eyes were wide open, she struggled a few times at first, then she tilted her head and passed out directly.

The toxicity of oleander is really powerful.

Xiao Tao gently took out her handkerchief, cleaned up all the crumbs of dim sum on the floor, and finally wiped the corners of Du Juan's mouth.

She seemed to have a sliver of life left, and maybe calling for help now would still have a glimmer of life.

Xiaotao squatted quietly on the ground, waiting and watching patiently, without any fear in her heart.

She had seen too many dead people.

The dead are the least scary to her, they are just flesh and blood, the living are the most terrifying.Because you can't predict what she will do, what she will say... Xiao Tao stretched out her hand slowly, probed her breath with her fingers, paused for a moment, and then smiled lightly, feeling that the world is finally clean.

A life was lost in the Zhu family.

It's really unlucky, very unlucky, that a person's life has happened at such a good time.

The old lady Zhu was so angry that she called her second daughter-in-law Chai over, pointed at her face, and reprimanded her severely.

When Mrs. Chai came out of the old lady's room, his face was livid and extremely ugly.

The cuckoo is gone, and everyone knows that Xiaotao did it, but on the surface, there is no trace of evidence to be found.

The doctor said he was poisoned to death, but none of the tea and snacks in the cuckoo house were poisoned.

Xiaotao even insisted that she didn't do anything, just to please Du Juan, she specially sent snacks and tea, but who knows, she was lying on the ground as soon as she entered the door, breathless... Such a perfunctory lie, no one will believe.

After hearing this, Mrs. Chai felt very angry. She knew that these maids would not stay in their own room peacefully and live their lives in peace.Nylon had just left, and they couldn't bear it any longer. They just couldn't bear to see the Zhu family have a moment of peace. They usually fight openly and covertly, and make waves. Seeing that they are all the women of their sons, they simply opened their eyes. Close one eye, no matter so much.Unexpectedly, they made more and more noise and became more and more fierce, and this meeting actually caused a fatality.

Xiaotao was also very flustered, but she felt relieved when she thought that the nuns and the others hadn't found anything just now.

She has already cleaned up those harmful things, as long as they can't find them, it can't be said that she did it.

Mrs. Chai hates stubborn and disobedient slaves the most. Seeing that Xiaotao refused to admit it, she scolded with a sullen face, "What do you think you are? How dare you harm people's lives under my nose! I am pregnant with a child, and I dare not touch you. No matter how good you are in your stomach, you are just a bastard. Our Zhu family does not care much, and neither does Nylon. , at your own peril!"

Xiaotao still didn't change her face and heartbeat, she just said calmly: "Second madam, I didn't do anything, I hope the second madam will see clearly."

Chai then raised his hand, and slapped Xiaotao hard on the face, causing her to fall over, almost lying on the ground.

Chai's hands were strong, and Xiaotao's brain was buzzing immediately, and she couldn't come back to her senses for a while... Xia Jiu begged with a crying voice: "Second madam, calm down, the girl is pregnant now, so she can't be beaten... "

After hearing this, Mrs. Chai sneered, and her tone became more gloomy, "You still have the face to talk. The smoky atmosphere in this yard all day long was instigated by you unruly maids who provoked you openly and secretly. Divorce, don't want to think about how to make the master live comfortably, full of bad water." After finishing speaking, she ordered the nuns beside her to beat Xia Jiu heavily, "You say she can't, well, I'll start today Take your skin off and see if she's telling the truth."

Hearing this, the woman immediately rolled up her sleeves, grabbed Xia Jiu's hair, and slapped it down one by one, and said in her mouth: "This slap is a lesson to you, no matter how big or small, how dare you be here?" You speak casually in front of the master... This slap is to teach you to hide evil intentions, you are teasing the girl, sowing discord... This slap is to teach you to be so bold that you dare to protect others in front of the master..."

After several slaps like this, Xia Jiu's face was already red and swollen, and the corners of his mouth were bleeding.

Xia Jiugang tried not to cry at first, but later, she couldn't help crying, but the more she cried, the harder the nanny beat her... Xiao Tao could see clearly and hear clearly, hesitated for a moment, and just now He pleaded and said, "Second Madam, if you are angry, you can blame your slaves. Xia Jiu is just a child, she doesn't know anything, she can't do anything, even if she wants to hurt others, she can't do it."

After hearing this, Mrs. Chai thought she was going to admit her mistake, so she snorted coldly: "Since she can't, then you did it yourself."

Xiaotao still shook her head and said, "No, the servant did not harm anyone."

Hearing this, Mrs. Chai trembled with anger, stood up directly from the chair, couldn't help raising her hand and gave her a slap, and angrily said: "You presumptuous thing! You still don't admit it until now, okay, I have to beat you until you are subdued today, come here, beat me hard, hard."

As soon as Chai's words came out, everyone was in trouble.

Hit... still hit hard, hit hard... But everyone present knows that Xiao Tao is the second young master's favorite, and she will be pregnant again. I won't pursue it later, but how should the second young master explain it?
Everyone was in trouble for a while, no one dared to respond, and no one dared to make a move.

Chai's eyes swept away, and he said coldly: "What's the matter? You are all deaf, right? Didn't you hear what I said?"
