[Red Chamber] When I became Grandma Liu

"But our family is just ordinary people!" Gou'er was puzzled.

"Stupid you!" Liu Cui scolded the dog lightly, "Although we are ordinary people, why don't you take a look at who we live in now?"

"Master Lin!" Gou'er suddenly realized.

"Yes, Mr. Ding probably misunderstood the relationship between us and Lin Ruhai, and wants us to connect with Lin Ruhai, or a big ship with four kings and eight men!" Liu Cui continued to analyze, "If you don't reveal your cards, you want to let us We are really old and cunning foxes doing things for him."

"Then...shall we build this bridge connecting Lord Ding and Lord Lin?" Gou'er asked Liu Cui.

Liu Cui: "Let me think about it again and deal with him. Ding Tong knows that the fox's tail hasn't shown yet? Let's wait." Moreover, counting the days, Lin Ruhai died of illness in the past few years. Looking at Lin Ruhai's body , It doesn't look like it doesn't have a few years of life?It's just a little false.

And what about Ding Tongzhi was the catalyst for Lin Ruhai's death?

In the original book, did Lin Ruhai cooperate with Ding Tongzhi? Unlike Sister Feng's mission, Liu Cui had to be more cautious when it came to Lin Ruhai's life.

The two of them went back to the Lin Mansion while they were talking. As soon as they got off the horse, a servant from the Lin Mansion greeted them graciously. Liu Cui rewarded him with a dime and asked, "Did Master Lin ever go to bed?"

The servant just came over to help Liu Cui, and got so much reward. He was happy in his heart, and heard the nobleman's question again, and replied respectfully: "The master is busy with work, and the bedtime is not stable these days. Sometimes I go to bed as soon as it gets dark, but sometimes I don’t come out of the study until midnight. I went to bed early today.”

Liu Cui said "Yes": "I'll come back late at night, then I won't bother Mr. Lin."

Staying up late and living an irregular life seem to shorten life span.However, judging from Daiyu's dictation and living habits, Lin's father taught Daiyu to keep in good health since she was a child.But now he is acting like this, either because he only knows how to keep in good health and does not practice it, or... there is something else wrong, forcing Lin Ruhai to work overtime.

Lin Cui twirled the finger wrench given by her daughter, she seemed to have found a breakthrough point!

The next day, Liu Cui and Liu Cui had just woken up, and Wuxu was waiting for orders at the door. After washing up, the three of them had breakfast together again.Afterwards, Liu Cui sent Gou'er to find Zou Ying to keep an eye on some business matters, and then went around the city with Wu Xu.

The carriage stopped and went all the way, Liu Cui bought some random things, and directed the coachman to walk to Guang'an Hall in the city.

There is a doctor in the city, Li Xi, who is upright and skilled in medicine. It is said that his ancestors were imperial physicians who came out of the palace. Men and women are divided into diagnosis and treatment.

Liu Cui was lucky to come here this time, there were very few people queuing up in front of her, and she arrived in a while.

Because it is a female client, Dr. Li sits in a small private room.As soon as Liu Cui entered the door, she saw the famous and eccentric Dr. Li. Dr. Li was a thin old man with gray hair. When he saw a female guest coming in, Dr. Li showed a kind smile.Is this the legendary "smile" service?Liu Cui complained silently in her heart.

Liu Cui was originally a little apprehensive, and came with a different purpose as a dead horse as a living horse doctor, but now she was smiled by Doctor Li, and her heart was a little more at ease.Chinese medicine is broad and profound, but mysterious and mysterious. Maybe Dr. Li still has a few brushes.

As usual, the four steps of "Looking, Listening, Listening and Cutting" came down. Dr. Li said apologetically: "Look at the complexion, the old lady's complexion is rosy; I heard the old lady's pulse is strong and powerful. Forgive me for being shallow, old lady." , your bones are very healthy, probably stronger than mine. As for the heart throbbing sometimes, I can't find out what the disease is. I can only prescribe you a few soothing prescriptions. "

Liu Cui didn't expect Dr. Li to know the reason for her occasional heartache, but today she just used an excuse to come here.

Looking around, seeing no one around, Liu Cui took out a tightly wrapped oiled paper bag from her arms, untied the rope on it, spread out the oiled paper bag and placed it on the table in front of Dr. Li.

Facing Doctor Li's suspicious eyes, Liu Cui wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, pretended to be very sad and said: "Doctor, to be honest, I am not here to seek your treatment, but to seek your help!"

When Dr. Li heard this, he panicked: "What's the matter? Do you want to report to the police?"

Liu Cui then went on to say: "My lord, since my wife passed away, he has been in poor health. I thought it was because of excessive grief, but not long ago I saw someone sneakily adding something to the soup and medicine that the lord drank. But I didn’t have any evidence, and it’s not easy to grow, so I just secretly took some medicinal residues and wanted someone to identify them.”

"I also heard that Dr. Li has a good reputation, so I came here secretly to ask." Liu Cui gave Dr. Li a big hat while talking, and took out a stack of silver notes by the way, "This is a remuneration. Besides The people in the mansion don't know about my going out to find a doctor. I just said that I know some medical principles and I saw it when something happened."

Dr. Li took a look at Liu Cui. He was dressed luxuriously and imposingly. At first glance, he was not an ordinary family. This kind of private affairs in this family is not. Dr. Li did not want to get involved, but... this old lady really gave too much Alright! Who in the world doesn't like silver bills?

"This...doctors are benevolent, since this is the case, I will show you!" Dr. Li was really moved. This money is quite a lot. With this money, I can do many things.At the moment, he was unambiguous, and directly took the medicine dregs and started testing, "It's just that I don't guarantee that my guess is correct. It's safest to find the person who decocted the medicine." pursue.

"That's natural. No one but me knows that you said it." Liu Cui was also very kind, and assured her with a pat on the heart.

Dr. Li took the bag of medicinal residues, first took out a thicker one from the silver needle bag placed aside, picked the medicinal residues carefully with a needle, then put the medicinal residues into his mouth and chewed , carefully tasted the product.

Then he picked up the tea prepared next to him to rinse his mouth, walked to the door, looked around, and saw that there was no one around, then picked out a small medicine dregs, and said to Liu Cui: "Old lady , There is something wrong with this medicine."

Liu Cui was instantly alert: "Could it be..."

"Yes, look at this medicinal dregs. This thing is called trichosanthes pollen. Although it is in powder form, it is used as a medicine in the form of rhizomes. It has the effect of clearing away heat and purging fire." Seeing Liu Cui's puzzled eyes, Doctor Li provoked another A piece of medicinal residue, "This is Achyranthes bidentata. Although it can nourish the liver and kidneys and strengthen the muscles and bones, it is incompatible with trichosanthemi." 【Note 1】

To sum it up, someone poisoned Lin Ruhai!

Liu Cui understood.She didn't stay at the moment, just took the dregs and left, she still has a lot of things to do!

Wuxu, who has been squatting outside for a long time, can't figure it out. He feels that his boss is very strange. He will go to the small kitchen to steal medicine dregs, and then go to the other side of the city to see a doctor. to go.

However, although he was full of doubts, Wuxu still drove the carriage back to Lin's mansion honestly.

Along the way, Liu Cui only felt her heart beating, and she was excited. Liu Cui's own guess was right: Lin Ruhai's death was something else!

I really am a butterfly, just flapping my wings, but it has already begun to affect more and more people...
