V1.Chapter 45
Qin Zhi is still immersed in the past. Outside the gate, another mammy comes in and says that she dug up a nameless box of aloe wood under a dead willow root beside the lotus pond.
Chamberlain Xie took over the wooden box in Mammy's hand, opened it slowly with Qin Zhi's signal, and then opened a small mouth. A pungent smell came out of it, which made Chamberlain Xie frown. The whole room was filled with this strong and somewhat boring fragrance.
"Master, it's musk." Thank you for reporting.
As soon as the words came out, several women in the room could not help but step back. Musk can be used as perfume or medicine, but such a strong smell of musk is extremely harmful to women, especially pregnant women.
But looking at the old color of the Chenxiang wood box, the interface has been a little swollen by the water vapor of the lotus pond, buried under the root of the tree, for some years.
"My Lord, I don't know what to say about my body," Chang Shi said in a timely manner. "When I was a girl at home, one of my father's aunts accidentally used the medicine with musk, which eventually resulted in a dead fetus, one dead body and two lives. Later, I heard from the doctor that this musk would not only cause the pregnant woman to have a hard time giving birth, but also cause the pregnant woman to use too much musk It will lead to the lack of a baby's clothes and the difficulty of getting pregnant. In those days, the master's love for elder sister he was in the eyes of several sisters, but elder sister he had never been pregnant at one time. Isn't it strange? "
Qin yunuanton said for the first time: "cover the musky smell inside with the Chenxiang wooden box, and then bury the box beside the lotus pond that Aunt he loves most. It will not be harmful to Aunt he's body after a long time."
"Joke," dou Qinge seems to be so disdainful, so understatement, "it's not too hasty to conclude that He Mei Mei was poisoned by someone just by a box that appeared inexplicably? Besides, since the box is buried under the root of the tree, how can it be dug out so easily? "
Mammy, who sent the casket, nodded: "this casket should have been buried for some time. My maid guessed that it was during this time that the roots of the tree kept extending and pushing the casket out of the ground."
Qin Zhi slightly loosens his grip on Li Qiqi's hand, and his eyes seem to be covered with clouds. In his heart, most of his life, only lianniang is the one who has paid his heart to love and hurt. At this time, old things are like crystal gravel on the beach after the ebb tide, which makes his eyes and heart ache.
"Chamberlain Xie," Qin Zhi said coldly, "I'll give you three days to find the servant girls of the mother-in-law who used to serve him, and the Zhao family in the east of the city." And whether there is any hidden plot behind his lotus mother's death or not, this box of musk alone is enough to show that the courtyard has never been peaceful.
Zhao's mother-in-law was the barefoot mother-in-law of that year. Her husband's surname was Zhao, and she was called Zhao's mother-in-law. She had done spiritual media, midwifery, Exorcism and treatment of diseases. She still had a reputation in the suburbs. At that time, it was because of the false name of this woman that Dou Qing'e invited this woman when Aunt he was dying and the medicine stone was inanimate. What he got was that Qin Zhi hated Qin Baochuan for six years.
It's time to break up. Li Qiqi was temporarily arranged in an attic in the back room, only half a cup of tea from Fuxi courtyard.
Dou Qing'e's face is not as bright as the initial blush, but she is still full of spirit with a slight whiteness. As soon as Fang turns around, she is slipped by something, and her body is obviously flying backward.
"Mother, there is water on the ground. Be careful." Qin yunuan moves to help Dou qing'e. the water on the ground is exactly what the servant girl just came in with wet clothes. Dou Qing'e steps back several times, as if afraid that the water will follow.
"No need for your help." Dou Qing'e pushed Qin yunuan away and held Qin Yunzhuang's hand. She didn't believe that today's business has nothing to do with Qin yunuan. It's been six years since things subsided. When she started, she thought about how many times the master would thoroughly investigate and how decidedly she would find out the murderer's hand to avenge the little bitch. However, she was lucky. At that time, the court was in chaos, even Qin Zhi I have some scruples about her, but the Dou family is still there, and the power of the Dou family is still there. I don't dare to move too much.
Today, however, it's different. Her friendship with Qin Zhi has never been strong. In the letter from her father's house the day before yesterday, Qin Zhi seemed to avoid Dou's family when he recommended Xiaolian a few days ago. She paid more attention to raising an ambitious wolf. You think that when it's big, it can open the way for you. When its teeth are sharp and its claws are sharp, it's the first one to fight back It was the man who had domesticated it as a beast.
"Cui'e!" Dou Qing'e was very dissatisfied and called out some stunned cui'e at the door frame.
Cui'e's face was burning and her head was full of sweat. The whole person fell down powerlessly. Hearing Dou Qinge's call, she hurriedly followed the master. When she left, her eyes drifted to the left and to the right. She was always worried about the ghosts that would appear in the Furong hospital. When her steps were deeper and shallower, she could not walk steadily.
The moon gradually faded, and the East was suffused with a little red glow, just like the blush on the cheek of a girl in the spring. Qin yunuan was a little tired after all. She walked slowly on the bluestone road back. The air was moist with water vapor. When did it rain like a cow's hair.
Qin yunuan held her head up slightly, and the rain fell on her thin and thick eyelashes, condensed into water drops. Suddenly, the originally vast sky was covered by an oil paper umbrella, with a light masculine atmosphere. The people behind smiled and the heat of breathing was thin on Qin yunuan's white neck."It's raining, don't you know to hurry back?" This is Su Chenghai's voice. It's warm and pleasant with the breath of spring breeze.
Qin yunuan looked back at Su Chenghai, who was holding the umbrella handle, and pointed to the rain flying all over the sky and said with a smile: "you see that there is rain between the clouds and water in the sky. It's wet to walk fast and slow. What's the matter with walking slowly?"
"Alas," Su Chenghai sighed weakly, "I can't help you."
I can't help you? Qin yunuan is stunned after listening to this sentence. It's a bit spoiled. She slightly sweeps Su Chenghai, who is dedicated to supporting her umbrella. When has her relationship with him become so close?
I don't know how long I've been walking. The drizzle stops gradually. The early sun is like gold.
"Here you are." At the gate of Fuxi courtyard, Su Chenghai put up his twenty-four bone green bamboo paper umbrella and knocked twice on the rockery beside the gate of the courtyard to shake down the water drops on the umbrella.
"I didn't have a good rest last night. Is cousin going out again?" Qin asked softly.
Su Chenghai smiled: "I've only been in Beijing for a short time. I have to supervise a lot of business affairs in person. I can't relax."
Qin yunuan nodded with a shallow smile: "now the court says that Leng Changxi's army is busy with the affairs of the East Qin. In my opinion, cousin is even busier than Leng's army."
Su Chenghai hesitated a little bit, the warm orange sunshine gradually expanded with the rising of the sun, reflecting half of Su Chenghai's face like a layer of Phnom Penh, and the smile on his lips, like a boat in the waves of the four seas, rippling a circle of beautiful and gentle ripples.
"I have to go." Su Chenghai takes the umbrella and takes the lead.
When tonger came out to meet the door, he saw Qin yunuan standing at the door.
"Three girls." Tong'er just asked for his best wishes, but Qin Yuwen said something about him.
"Keep up." Qin Yu said coldly to tong'er, "follow me to see where he has gone, but don't force me to follow him. If I find him, I will come back immediately."
When Su Chenghai came near, Qin yunuan's uneasy heart was finally solidified because of doubt. She didn't refuse Su Chenghai's kind intentions. It wasn't that she accepted or acquiesced to Su Chenghai's actions towards her, but the taste of Su Chenghai.
When the warm masculine breath came like the tide, a sense of inexplicable deja vu shocked Qin Yuwen, with some cold and fresh grass in her confusion, she always had a keen sense of smell and a superior memory, such a taste, she would not forget.
There is also the cocoon at hukou, the heart of Su Chenghai's palm. It is reasonable to say that if the person who has been playing abacus all the year round starts to cocoon at the fingertips, and hukou, only the person who has been holding the sword and blade all the year round, can grind such a cocoon.
Qin yunuan believed that he was a man, but he could not believe that he was as obscure as the deep sea.
After resting on the bed for less than half an hour, Qin yunuan was summoned by Liao's mother, who could hear a lot of noise from far and near.
In the Furong courtyard, Butler Xie led a group of servants to form a closed circle. In the middle, it was cui'e, who was sad and frightened. At her feet, half of the yellow paper was burned. The flying ashes were instantly turned into the cold and chilly wind by the wind.
"You are brave," said Butler Xie, who had received the news for a long time. Last night, he also waited in the Furong courtyard. As expected, he waited for cui'e, who was secretly bringing yellow paper to worship at dawn. "Why did you come to the Furong courtyard to burn paper money alone in the middle of the night?"
Cui'e used to be a generous and smart servant girl, but at this time she stared at the thick dark circles of her eyes. Her eyes were unsteady. She just shook her head in panic and murmured to herself, "I didn't do it. I didn't do it. Aunt he, don't come to me if you show your spirit. You go to that woman."
She asked several times in succession, but cui'e was still repeating that sentence. She looked as if she had lost her soul.
One side of the young man carefully close to the front way: "thank housekeeper, this Cui e, won't be lost heart crazy."
Chamberlain Xie glared at him fiercely, and said in a deep voice, "go to the Shunchang courtyard to inform the master, and then to the cuixuan courtyard to inform the madam." Chamberlain Xie is very good at being a man. First of all, he guards the yard at the master's order. Naturally, he wants to focus on Qin's quality. However, dou Qing'e is the one who manages the Qin's backyard for a long time. This face must be given to him. Even if he is an old man of Qin's family, he has to rely on Dou Qing'e's three thin noodles to eat.
"No need." Although the voice is gentle and pleasant, but the tone is still with a bad taste.
Dou Qing'e did not know when she had appeared behind the crowd, but she still couldn't hide her haggard expression after she applied the powder in a hurry. When she was sure that it was cui'e around her in the crowd, there was even more murderous look in her eyes.
Chamberlain Xie took over the wooden box in Mammy's hand, opened it slowly with Qin Zhi's signal, and then opened a small mouth. A pungent smell came out of it, which made Chamberlain Xie frown. The whole room was filled with this strong and somewhat boring fragrance.
