Chapter 246
Hui's mother said: "I've been thinking about this question just now, maybe the imperial doctor just temporarily suppressed the poison in his body at that time, thinking that he would be cured by taking medicine slowly, but who knew that the poison was so overbearing, and the residual poison was so powerful In such a short period of time, it has penetrated deep into the internal organs, and now the imperial doctor can only do nothing? I said that if Mrs. Zhuang didn't have any real skills, how would she dare to promise in front of me? I was still thinking about it yesterday. It was in vain that Madam had such great kindness to her back then, but she almost ruined Madam's affairs. Fortunately, she was a conscientious person, knowing that she would end herself early and not implicate anyone. Only now did she know that she There are still two brushes!"

Mrs. Zhuang is the one who commits suicide in fear of crime. Although she seldom interacts with people, she looks like she is not friendly with anyone on the surface, but in fact she still has a close relationship with one person, and that is Mother Hui. , but no one in the entire Dingguo Mansion knew about it except Mrs. Lu Er.

It turned out that when Mrs. Zhuang Fang entered Dingguo's mansion 13 years ago, Mrs. Lu and Mama Hui passed by a secluded corner of the garden one night. Unexpectedly, they heard someone crying in the flowers, and whispered something while crying.

Mrs. Lu motioned for Hui's mother to come forward and listen carefully, and then she realized that the other party was a low-class servant girl who had just entered the mansion. She had gone to Beijing with her husband and son to visit relatives when her hometown was hit by a disaster. Both her son and her son fell ill and died one after another. She herself was then trafficked by kidnappers, and sold into the Dingguo Mansion several times. At that time, she thought that the coffins of her husband and son were still in the small town where she was trafficked. Don't talk about being buried in peace, I'm afraid I don't know what it will be like now, but not only can't let them be buried in peace, but I can't even burn some paper money with them in a different place, and I feel sad, so I am here After the day's errands were over, I hid in the flowers and cried.

At that time, it was less than two years after Lu Wenshi passed away. Seeing the woman crying pitifully, Mrs. Lu thought that she felt pity for her, and secondly, she thought that it was to accumulate blessings for Lu Wenshi so that he could have a good pregnancy as soon as possible. In a moment of soft-heartedness, she promised that the woman would send someone to welcome the coffins of her husband and son into the capital for safety in a few days. After all, she would not be able to return to her hometown in this life, so her husband and son would naturally stay in the capital with them. For her kindness - that woman is naturally Mrs. Zhuang.

For Mrs. Lu, this matter was nothing more than a momentary soft-hearted effort, but for Mrs. Zhuang, it was a rebirth of kindness. Since then, she has been thinking about how she can repay the great kindness of Mrs. Lu. Great Virtue, as long as he can repay his kindness, even if it means risking his own life, he is willing to do so.

At first Mrs. Lu didn't take Mrs. Zhuang seriously. She helped her more just to make her feel better. It had nothing to do with Mrs. Zhuang herself. But after Mrs. Zhuang entered the big kitchen, because of her cooking skills Yes, after gradually gaining the qualifications as a chef in the big kitchen, her heart became active. If one day she couldn't get revenge by exhausting other methods, the only way left was to eat and poison, and she would have to work in the big kitchen. It is good that the kitchen has its own talents.

So he instructed Hui's mother to take care of Mrs. Zhuang secretly, maybe they will use her someday in the future?

Mrs. Zhuang had no relatives in Duke Dingguo's mansion. At the beginning, when others saw her husband and son died, they felt that she was unlucky, and they didn't have much contact with her. So at this time, the little care that Hui's mother gave her occasionally seemed to be more and more embarrassing. It's precious enough, not to mention that Mrs. Lu is her great benefactor?So the last time I saw Hui's mother years ago, after hearing such and such orders from Hui's mother, she agreed without hesitation, and when things failed later, she chose to end herself without hesitation, just because she didn't want to There is any possibility of implicating Mrs. Lu in any way while she is alive.

It can be said that until she died, she only wanted to land on Second Madam Lu. The momentary kindness of Lu Second Madam back then received a hundred times more reward than she expected!

It was also because no one else knew what happened back then, and over the years, Mama Hui and Mrs. Zhuang had not had many private contacts and the places where they met were extremely secretive, so after Mrs. Zhuang's death, no one found out about Mrs. Lu.

Mrs. Lu couldn't help sighing when Madam Hui talked about Mrs. Zhuang: "In the end, she is just a poor person just like me! Has her body been thrown into a mass grave now? You let people quietly Be careful not to be spoiled by people or wild dogs. When the rumors pass in the future, she will always be buried with her husband and son. This is the last thing I can do for her! "

Hui's mother hurriedly responded, and then asked Mrs. Lu, "Madam, what should we do next?"

The Second Madam Lu sneered and said, "What else can I do except wait and see what happens? Could it be that I can be kicked out of the bastard's village and poison the little bastard again, not to mention that we have no one available, old Duke?" The Lord and the Duke of the country are both here. Wouldn’t it be self-inflicted if we acted at this time? Naturally, it’s better to stay the same. Isn’t the residual poison on the little bastard’s body already penetrated into the internal organs? I don’t believe that God will If you don't open your eyes, you've reached this point, and you still don't accept him!"

Hui's mother nodded, "Where is the old lady, do you want to take a look at it? Although the lady is also sick, it is understandable not to go, but such a big event happened, according to me, the lady should go there of."

Mrs. Lu said: "Of course I want to go. Not only do I want to go, my mother-in-law is sick, but my daughter-in-law should also wait on the sick bedside. It's justified. You help me up, and then someone fetches water to serve me. Freshen up, and we'll go to Rongtaiju later." If you don't guard Mrs. Lu, how can you get first-hand news, and how can you know in the first place whether that little bastard Lu Wenzhu is dead or alive!

Hui's mother agreed, raised her voice to call the servant girl to bring in water, and personally helped Mrs. Lu to wash up, and changed into plain clothes. Then, she sent people to call Lu Mingxin, and the mother and daughter sat in a soft sedan chair. With attendants at his side, surrounded by girls and women, he went to Rongtaiju at night.

At that time, Rongtaiju was not as chaotic as it was before. Mrs. Lu had already been helped to the bed in the inner room. Mrs. Lu led Grandma Lu and sisters Lu Mingfeng to wait outside anxiously.

Seeing Second Madam Lu being supported by Lu Mingxin and Hui's mother, taking a step and panting three times, with a pale and thin face that is no better than a dead person, Madam Lu couldn't help but feel unhappy for a while, seeing that the two houses are already dead The chaos has become like this, why did she come to add to the chaos, because she thinks that she, the head of the house, is too busy, doesn't she?But he didn't show it on his face, he just got up and said: "Second brother and sister are both sick, and now it's freezing outside, if you have anything to do, just send someone to talk, why bother to come here in person, in case there is someone Mishap, but what to do?"
