concubines are respected

Chapter 25 Shujian Poisoning
Suxian, who had just entered the room, heard a lot of movement outside the door, and immediately walked out.

"Second Miss." Xiang Cao's expression changed when she was shocked by the fierce knock on the door, and she looked back at Su Xian worriedly, hesitating whether to open the door.

"Open the door and let him in." Suxian calmly said, looking at the situation, what is wrong with the lady!
As soon as the main door opened, a young servant in a gray cloth shirt walked in. He didn't congratulate Suxian when he saw Suxian, but said with a haughty face, "Tell Da Furen, Second Miss, hurry up and go to the front door." There should be no delay in talking to the court."

After finishing speaking, she was about to turn around, Suxian quickly said with a smile, "Thank you, brother, let me know." Then she turned her head and said to Cui Ya who was beside her, "Go and wrap a few pieces of osmanthus cake in the small kitchen for my brother, so that I Brother, give it a try."

Cui Ya gave the rude servant a dissatisfied look. Although she didn't understand why the second lady treated this low-looking thing like a dog, she still hurried to the small kitchen to wrap a few pieces of fluffy food in oiled paper. The sweet-scented osmanthus cake came out and passed it to the servant.

Unexpectedly, the young servant was not only ungrateful, but took a step back and gave Osmanthus Cake a vigilant look, and said forcefully, "No need, the second young master ate at your place at noon today, and his stomach hurts badly. Who If you still dare to eat things from your bird garden, the second lady should go to the main courtyard as soon as possible, so don't dawdle."

"You!" Cui Ya didn't like this boy at first, but now she saw him speak rudely, she immediately said angrily, "Be kind as a donkey's liver and lungs, if you don't eat it, we'll save it." After finishing speaking, Cui Ya opened the door angrily. Oil paper bag, took out a piece of sweet-scented osmanthus cake, stuffed it into the mouth and ate it in big mouthfuls, and gave the boy a demonstrative look from time to time.

Seeing Cui Ya's delicious food, the boy's Adam's apple moved slightly, he swallowed secretly, and walked out with a stiff neck.

Vanilla didn't care about the boy's disrespect, but was horrified by what he said just now, "Second Miss, listen to what he said, the second young master's stomach was ruined by eating, what a big deal. If there are problems with the ingredients, how can we Will it be all right?"

Su Xianyuan planned to give the young man some benefits, and by the way, he came up with some news, but he didn't expect to hit the right track, which made the young man say something like this, "Cui Ya, you watch in the yard, don't let outsiders in, vanilla you Follow me to see."

The two masters and servants hurried to the main courtyard.

In the main courtyard, in the third aunt's room, the old lady sat on the mahogany armchair next to the bed with a worried face, holding Lin Shujian's little hand lying on the bed, and kept saying, "Why hasn't the doctor come yet? Call someone to come back soon." Urge."

The eldest lady sat at the round table in the middle of the house with a stern expression, staring fixedly at the entrance of the main entrance, it seemed that she was waiting for Suxian to come to Xingshi to question her.

The third aunt was tear-stained, sitting by the bed, gently rubbing Shujian's lower abdomen, choked up and said, "Jian, if you want to vomit, spit it out, Jianer."

Accompanied by Vanilla, Suxian entered the room, and immediately understood the formation when she saw this formation. It seems that someone did use the ingredients that Shujian used in Queyuan as an example.

"Suxian please greet the old lady, the eldest lady, and the third aunt." Suxian blessed Fushen calmly, then turned her eyes to the bed, and said in surprise, "Second brother, what's wrong, he was fine just now, but why not?" OK?"

It's okay if you don't ask, this time the third aunt is like a she-wolf protecting her cubs, striding forward, pointing at the tip of Suxian's nose and shouting angrily, "You bitch, it's ashamed to ask, you ask yourself , what did you give Jianer today?"

Suxian's eyes were clear and innocent, and she looked at the third aunt innocently, "Third aunt, Suxian doesn't understand what you mean. The second brother did eat some porridge in the bird garden today, but Suxian also ate, There's nothing wrong with that."

"Cough cough!" The old lady coughed softly, glanced at Suxian indifferently, and said to the third aunt, "Qiaojuan, Qinru will definitely decide this matter, you just look at Jianer."

The third aunt realized that she had lost her composure, and gave Suxian an angrily look, then sat back on the bed, guarding Lin Shujian.

"Lin Suxian, I don't think it's wrong to say that you also ate porridge, but after eating in your garden, Jianer has become like this now, but it is a fact. Should you give an explanation? That's it?" The lady said to Suxian with stern eyes.

"Mother, Suxian was having a meal at noon today. It happened that the second brother came to play. Seeing that the side dishes were delicious, he used some. Suxian used the same ingredients as vanilla and Cuiya at noon, and there was nothing wrong with it. Only the second brother came out. Now that there is a problem, maybe it's what the second brother ate after he returned to the main courtyard." Suxian Kanshujian didn't look like a pretense, thinking there was something wrong, she couldn't help feeling a little worried.

Lin Yinglu on the side said sharply, "Second brother came back from your place, and when he had dinner at night, he felt a dull pain in his abdomen, so he hadn't eaten dinner, so how could he eat something wrong? Obviously you saw that second brother was favored and hated him. You got malicious intentions, tampered with your second brother's meal, and you still have to argue at this time, I really can't spare you lightly today!"

Suxian's face straightened, and she said to Lin Yinglu in a cold voice, "Third sister, you must not swear at others. How can you say such words indiscriminately, not to mention that I am related to my second brother by blood, even if it is an irrelevant bystander, I will definitely not make a move." Harmful. How can it be a wise move to harm others and not benefit yourself! If you really want to save the second brother, think about it again, what else did he eat besides dinner?"

At this moment, a young servant led the doctor into the room hurriedly, and San Yiniang immediately got up to make room.

The doctor greeted the old lady, the eldest lady, and the third aunt, and quickly put down the medicine box on his shoulders, sat by the bed and carefully took Shujian's pulse.

After a while, I got up and said to the old lady, "I want to report to the old lady, the second young master is suspected of food poisoning, if you don't give an injection in time to induce vomiting, there will be serious problems, but according to the pulse, the second young master should What kind of inappropriate thing was used at noon."

"It really is you bitch!" After hearing this, Third Auntie couldn't control her excitement anymore, strode forward and raised her hand to fan Suxian.

How could Suxian allow the third aunt to be so presumptuous? At the moment when her palm came rushing towards her, she clasped her wrist quickly, and at the same time hid her body to one side, and shouted angrily, "Three aunts, please rest, rest!" It is said that Suxian is not at fault, even if Suxian is at fault, it should be punished by the Da Furen or the old Furen, how can there be any reason for San Yiniang to use force on Su Xian!"

Suxian's words were not exaggerated, those present knew in their hearts that according to their status, the third aunt was a slave, and Suxian was the master.In the world, there is no reason for a slave to do something to a master.

The old lady took a deep look at Suxian, and a strange look flashed in her eyes. She went to the capital for several months, and she never thought that Suxian, who was once weak and timid, would change so much in such a short period of time.

When Suxian said this, the third aunt immediately became anxious and angry, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, she tried her best to break free from Suxian's clenched wrist, turned around and knelt heavily in front of the old lady, crying, "Old lady, you You must make the decision for Qiaojuan!"

The old lady couldn't bear it, and hurriedly called the third aunt to get up, and at the same time looked at the faces of the people present with cold eyes, seeing Lin Ruxue who had been silent all this time, who was hesitant to speak, she asked softly, "Xue'er, do you have something to say?" Want to say?"

Lin Ruxue was blessed, and looked carefully at Mama Luo, the nanny standing beside her, and said, "Go back to Madam, at noon, when the second brother came back from the Bird Garden, he used the stewed soft-shelled turtle soup made by Mama Luo."

Just before the sound came out, Mother Luo, who was standing by the side, suddenly turned pale with fright, knelt down on the ground with a plop, and waved her hands anxiously, "Old lady, this old slave was wronged, the second young master of the soft-shelled turtle soup has not been used up, and the remaining half bowl of third aunt I gave it to the old slave, if there is something wrong with the soft-shelled turtle soup, the old slave should also be ill. Please check it out, old lady!"

The third aunt raised her hand to wipe the tears on her face, and said to the old lady, "Old lady, what Luo's mother said is right, the remaining soft-shelled turtle soup, Qiaojuan did reward Luo's mother to take it, I want to eat the soft-shelled turtle soup It won't be a problem."

Now that this matter has come to an impasse, Suxian firmly insists that there is nothing wrong with Shujian eating the meals in the bird garden.And Shujian didn't eat at dinner, let alone have a problem. Even Luo's mother used half of the only suspicious soft-shelled turtle soup. If there is a difference, it can't be justified.The old lady frowned and thought for a while, looked at Suxian with cold eyes and said, "What kind of ingredients are used in Queyuan at noon, please report to me."

Just as Suxian was about to speak, Yu'er, the maid who was serving Lin Yinglu, suddenly murmured to herself, "What, the second young master used soft-shelled turtle soup this afternoon?"

Although the voice was low, the room was unusually quiet, and everyone present listened sincerely, "Yu'er, is there something wrong?" The old lady narrowed her eyes slightly, examining Yu'er and said.

"Back to the old lady, I heard a common saying passed down from the old people by the elders before, called. Called." Yu'er showed hesitation, thinking whether it should be said or not.

"Hurry up, what are you doing!" San Yiniang shouted impatiently.

"Yes." Yu'er did not dare to hesitate, and simply said in one breath, "As the saying goes, 'If you want to die quickly, eat a turtle with amaranth', it roughly means that if you eat a turtle and amaranth at the same time, it will cause food loss to the user. Poisoned. Today, when the servant girl went to the dining room in the front yard to talk with my mother, she saw with her own eyes the vanilla in the second lady’s room taking amaranth back from the dining room. I think the second young master used amaranth in the bird garden at noon today, and then went back to The main courtyard also used soft-shelled turtle soup, which caused discomfort."

Suxian's complexion changed slightly, and she glanced at the vanilla beside her from the corner of her eye, and vanilla's complexion changed even more, she bowed her head and dared not speak.

The third aunt was shocked, and she didn't forget to shout to Yu'er, who was speechless all the time, "Hey, what's not dead, what you said is really creepy, spit out, and get rid of that bad luck!" Yu'er did not dare to neglect, and immediately responded According to the third aunt's order, he spit Xingzi and said repeatedly, "Bah, bah, the bad ones don't work, the good ones, the bad ones don't work, the good ones."

Although Yu'er went to the bad luck, the third aunt was startled by the word "death" in Yu'er's mouth, and she broke into a cold sweat. She didn't care much at the moment, and said to the doctor, "Doctor, save Jianer quickly, save Jianer quickly!" !"

The doctor heard that Shu Jian might have been poisoned by the combination of soft-shelled turtle and amaranth, so he immediately said, "Third Aunt, don't worry, if you are poisoned by the combination of soft-shelled turtle and amaranth, I have my own way to detoxify the second young master." Qiu Ju, the servant girl, ordered, "Go to the kitchen to find some fresh water spinach, grind it into juice, and bring it to the second young master to drink. According to the law of mutual generation and restraint of ingredients, it will definitely have the effect of detoxification."

"Did you hear me, hurry up!" San Yiniang shouted to Qiu Ju eagerly.Qiu Ju got the order and strode towards the kitchen.

The old lady saw that there was a solution, and the worry on her face suddenly eased a lot, "In this way, I guess it's just a coincidence, Jianer just ate something that is incompatible with him by mistake."

Although the old lady doesn't like Suxian from the bottom of her heart, the other party is the second lady of the Lin family after all. If Suxian really intends to harm Zijian and let outsiders know, it will inevitably lead to the Lin family's lax teaching of daughters, which will lead to fratricide. Such a statement will ultimately damage the reputation of Lin Fu.Knowing that it was just eating by mistake at this time, the old lady let out a long sigh of relief.

The eldest lady still didn't relax, she glared at Suxian bitterly, and said coldly, "Where is such a coincidence, I thought it was a bit strange, and the steward of the dining room, Mrs. Chen, came to ask questions!"

Suxian's expression froze, and she thought to herself, it seems that today the eldest lady has clearly made it difficult for her, so she will not easily open this page.
