Chapter 30 The busier it is, the more chaotic it is
Qin Zhi subconsciously touched the sprained right hand, and his mood seemed to float like autumn leaves falling in the pond, and his eyes fell on Qin Yunuan's body.
"Yes, this is the medicine mud that Yu Nuan grinded for her father," Qin Yu said with a warm voice. "Father, my daughter knew that you were injured during the south of the south of the Yangtze River, so she deliberately milled the medicine mud and waited for you to come back. Maybe the daughter's medicine mud is not as good as the elixir of the imperial doctor, but it is also the heart of her daughter, but now she is said by her mother that Wushisan's kind of... that kind of pickled things, father and daughter are wronged."
After saying that, it was really a piece of autumn water in his eyes, which touched Qin Zhi's heart so much. Although he never paid much attention to this common girl, Qin Yunuan's behavior still warmed his heart a little, at least to prove that there was a father like him in the heart of the third daughter.
But Dou Qing'e still didn't give up. She gritted her teeth and said, "Sir, she doesn't have it in this white porcelain bottle. It's not necessarily that she has never eaten. Naturally, only the maids around her know such a hidden thing."
"Mother, you can ask Liao's mother and Tong'er Man'er. They are all close people, and they all know my every move." Qin Yunuan straightened up.
"Since it's your personal person, of course I won't ask the three of them," Dou Qing'e stroked her chest and gradually straightened out her thoughts. "The three of them, one is your wet nurse, the other is an orphan rescued by your mother Yang, and the other is growing up with you. Of course, they will cover up for you." After saying that, Dou Qing'e put her body into the chair and said, "Come on, bring Fusheng."
Fusheng's body was thin and small. After being sent to Qin Yuwan's yard, he was deliberately beaten and scolded by Qin Yuwan every day because he was beautiful, and added a lot of injuries. However, Qin Yuwan was also intentional. He pricked it with a needle as thin as cow's hair. Usually, even if he opened his clothes and looked at it easily. There is no needle eye.
She knelt on the ground tremblingly, like a frightened deer. She looked sideways at Qin Yunuan kneeling together, and she didn't dare to say anything.
"You, tell the master honestly, when you were a messenger in the third girl's yard, did you ever see the third girl take strange things?" Dou Qing'e narrowed her eyes and stared straight at Fusheng with a provocative and threatening look, "Your sister Lvliu has also been a job around me. She is sensible. Presumably, you are the same?"
After a wave of calming, Qin Zhi was already a little overworked at this time. He coldly ordered Fusheng: "To be honest, if there is half a lie, the family law will serve you."
The cowardly Fusheng was like a lonely grass surrounded by the storm at this time, teetering and could not find a reliable place. She was temporarily captured from the second girl's yard by Aunt Xiu. She couldn't figure out the situation at this time, but after seeing the fierce light and hints flashing in Dou Qing'e's eyes, she also understood her role in an instant. , trembling and ready to speak, Qin Yunuan beside him also slowly said, "Speaking of green willow, she and I also have a master-servant friendship. Although she is now punished in Wan'an Temple, she is also worried about her sister in the house and entrusted me to bring you a message."
Fusheng suddenly struggled to straighten up, and his gray eyes heard the word "sister" and glowed with thoughts and brilliance.
"She said," Qin Yunuan said in a long tone, "she said that she should be worthy of conscience. She regrets the mistakes she had made before. If she was given another chance, she would not dare to clumsily overturn the tribute candlestick. If not, she would not have stayed in Wan'an Temple to be punished. If not He was punished for staying in Wan'an Temple. Last night, he would not be almost killed by a thief. Therefore, some things are really a failure that will become eternal hatred.
Qin Yunuan herself inferred that she was almost silenced. She sent Man'er to Wan'an Temple to visit Master Huineng this morning. Unexpectedly, Man'er not only found the extra traces of fighting in the temple, but also heard from the monks that Hui'an died for no reason last night, and the Qin's maidservant who originally lived in the wing was also secretly transferred by a team of people. Although Qin Yunuan doesn't know who sent the assassin or how Lvliu has died so far, it is a solid fact that Wan'an Temple was attacked last night. The people stationed in Wan'an Temple should be Leng Changxi. It seems that only he knows the truth best.
"Enough," Dou Qing'e no longer wants to hear Qin Yunuan's whispers, "Fusheng, you must be honest, what have you heard in this yard? What have you seen?"
Fusheng heard clearly that although she had not followed Dou Qing'e for a long time, she was also very clear about Dou Qing's private practices. Useful people were left, and useless people were silenced. His sister went to the fire pit for her again and again, but as a result, she was still discarded like a waste. If she helps her wife, the third girl will be in danger, and as a useless eyeliner left in the Qin family, she will not escape bad luck. Maybe she will be like her sister, but if she is against her wife...
Fusheng took a deep breath, as if he had made a great determination, and suddenly kowtowed to the ground: "Master, madam, the maidservant has only been in the yard of the three girls for two months. In those two months, the three girls followed the rules and there was nothing to surpass. The maidservants told the truth."
Qin's expression has loosened slightly, probably from the verification that the medicine bottle is filled with the wound medicine prepared for him by Qin Yunuan, and the balance in his heart has tilted slightly.
What Fusheng said surprised Dou Qing'e, tightened his eyes, and the corners of his eyes hid a trace of murder.
Qin Yunuan answered lightly: "In fact, it is extremely impossible to say that Yu Nuan is addicted to taking five stone powder. Five stones are scattered with one or two thousand gold, and Yu Nuan's share of silver a month is only two taels. Even if Yu Nuan doesn't eat or drink, she can't save so much money."
"Two taels?" Qin Zhi was a little surprised. He held that the man should take the world as his ambition. The affairs of the inner house have always been handed over to Dou Qing'e. Now when he hears that Qin Yunuan, a young lady of the Qin family, who is also a commoner and orthodox, only uses two taels a month. It is inevitable that she is a little surprised. In the Qin family, a first-class maid earns more than two taels a month. Ah.
"What can two or two do? Buy some sewing handkerchiefs, candied paper and pen, and two taels of silver will be gone. I don't know whether Qin Zhi's words were for himself or for Dou Qing'e.
"Father, you don't know. You don't dare to buy needle and thread debris. You have to buy rice and grain for a yard of food, and then buy oil and salt. Finally, buy some old books for Baochuan. As for paper and pen, you don't dare to think about it. Usually, you teach Baochuan to read and write on the sand. Fortunately, Baochuan has never After shouting bitterness, it is very hard. Yu Nuan's heart is also warm. Although there is little money, the friendship is enough.
There is not a single word in Qin Yunuan's words to refute how deduct and hypocritical Dou Qing'e is, but this self-satisfied words have already satirized Dou Qing'e completely.
"What nonsense," Dou Qing'e's expression seemed unnatural. "The use of each room and each courtyard is recorded in the account. Besides, everyone outside knows that Baochuan is arrogant. Yesterday, he complained in front of the public that his clothes were not bright enough. I'm afraid it's money. Yu Nuan, you don't know how to be thrifty and squander it. I have been in charge of the affairs of the Qin family for many years, and it is not your turn to speak.
The more arrogant Dou Qing'e's tone is, the more panicked she is. When it comes to bookkeeping, I'm afraid she can't remember how much Dou Qing'e has done on the account book.
Outside the study, the old housekeeper who led Su Chenghai into the yard was about to pick up the stairs and make a notification, when he heard a muffled sound in the room, like a earth-shaking thunder.
Qin was angry, and the fiery touch of patting the palms of the table could not stop the surging anger in his heart. What he was angry about was not how Dou Qing'e abused the common daughter. What he was angry about was that Dou Qing'e regarded herself as the owner of the family, trying to cover the sky with one hand. It was necessary for her to let her know that this family , or he has the final say.
"Old...sir." Dou Qing'e's eyes shook two tears, and the thick powder flowed on the evening haze purple silk Ruyi cloud pattern shirt, stained into a large pool of ugly traces.
"You still have the face to say that you have been in charge of the affairs of the Qin family for many years. I will hand over a big family to you, not to let you become more and more chaotic, so that even the emperor knows that my Qin Zhi's house is restless." The imperial edict had been drawn up, but the emperor temporarily changed his mind. The unwillingness hidden in Qin Zhi's heart was like a volcanic eruption at this time, and finally found a breakthrough.
Dou Qing'e was scared and pleaded, "Master, can't you see it? All this is the conspiracy of Qin Yunuan's little bitch. It's her. She dug a hole and waited for me to jump in. This is all her.
Qin's blood gas surged up, and his head became more and more dizzy: "I only saw you. You, a unruly woman, first sued Yu Nuan for eating five stone powder in front of me, but found nothing, and then I'm afraid that the world will not be sarcastic and scolded. Dou Qing'e, you are in our capital Qin's house, not your Dou's house in Hangzhou."
The more Qin Zhi said, the more excited he became. For a moment, his blood suddenly surged. Finally, the thin string in Qin Zhi's mind finally broke. His eyes were dark and he fell straight to the ground.
"Father, father, Dr. Chen, please look at my father. Come on, and move my father to the house." Qin Yunuan knelt next to Qin Zhi, looked at Qin Zhi, whose face was as pale as paper, and then looked sideways at Dou Qing'e, "Mother, do you really want to make your father dizzy before you stop?"
Two sharp-footed young men made adult chairs and carried Qin into the room. Dou Qing'e regained her look and quickly followed. Fortunately, the old doctor who followed Dou Qing'e to search the yard was also a famous doctor in the capital.
The maid went in and out with hot water, which made Dou Qing'e, who was waiting outside the house, more upset. Several times, she wanted to enter the room to serve in person, but she was stopped by Dr. Chen.
"Madam, now the adults suddenly fainted. First, they are overworked, and second, they are stimulated. Listen to me, Madam, don's not interfere too much. Besides, there are many people in it, and it's not good to dirty your lady's clothes."
