The wealthy man who wears books

Although the heat is strong, the stone slabs of the well platform are extremely cool because of the moisture from the ground.

Under the gauze net is the syrup stewed today. It was originally made from honey tremella and Sydney pears. It smells sweet and refreshing.

Originally, this pot of sugar water could also be brought to the grandma's dining room as a whole, so that it is convenient to drink some at any time after a meal.But today Bi'er changed her mind, she just asked the kitchen to fill out three big bowls, put them in a suitcase, and carried them by herself, saying that she would send them to grandma and them to relieve the summer heat.

Seeing that the little girl had prepared three bowls of sugar water, Bi'er urged them to pack up other meals, vegetables and fruits as soon as possible.

Seeing everyone agreeing to get busy, Bi Er took the suitcase and went straight to the main room.

The night was dark at this time, everyone in Bochun Garden had been busy for a whole day, except for the small kitchen, most of them had gone back to rest, so there was no one in front of or behind the corridor.

Bi'er's petite body walked quickly, and her eyes never forgot to look left and right. When she reached the dark corner of the corridor, she stopped her feet, hid her body behind the pillar, and opened the food box.

But in this scene, in the flowers on the opposite side of the corridor, a thin figure was staring closely at Bier's figure.

After seeing her looking around, she suddenly stopped in the corner, but hid behind a pillar, blocking most of her body.

The open carrying case was originally divided into upper, middle and lower layers, and each layer was just recessed with a bowl trough, each containing a bowl of sugar water.

Bi'er leaned against the pillar and secretly took out a paper bag from her bosom. When she opened it, it was full of white powder.She divided the powder in the paper bag into two, and poured it into the bowls on the first and second layers of the suitcase, until the powder melted into the sugar water and disappeared completely, then closed the suitcase again, and carried it in her hand superior.

The figure in Huacong on the opposite side changed several angles back and forth, but because Bi'er was hidden in the shadow and was extremely tightly blocked by a big pillar, she seemed to have opened the food box, but she couldn't see her clearly. did something.

The man seemed to lower his head and think for a while, then hurriedly got out from the flowers, half-bent, and sneaked into the side corridor, as if he wanted to take a shortcut from there to the front main house.

Bi'er, like her master Zhong Xiu, is extremely careful and careful, even though it is the dead of night, she still has a pair of eyes to look around thoroughly.

She had just walked a short distance when she noticed a figure in the diagonal corridor opposite. She felt a little vigilant and hurriedly chased after her, but she saw that figure was hurrying towards the direction of the main room. Upon closer inspection, it was actually a person. acquaintance.

Although she felt that the place where she was hiding just now was very hidden, and that person would not see what she was doing, but she was guilty of a crime, and she inevitably felt uneasy. shouted.

"Master Jusheng, why are you walking so fast, just wait for me!"

The figure walking quickly was Ju Sheng who was now the adopted son of the big house.Since the funeral began as Zhong Ren's foster son, the Zhong family temporarily referred to him as Young Master Ju Sheng.

Since Zhong Ren's funeral, both Zhong Xin and Qin Huai have been filled with many complicated and trivial matters, from morning to night, they are not idle.

But in this kind of situation, the performance of the girl in charge, Bi'er, was very appropriate and thoughtful, and she showed some strength, which was quite impressive.

However, in Qin Huai's heart, seeing her submissive yet shrewd demeanor, he couldn't help but think of the vicious female supporting roles in many house fighting novels. Under such a face, he was often full of bad things. .

Although, he also knew that he might have read too many novels, so it was inevitable that he would leave some usual stereotypes.Perhaps this Bi'er was as flexible as a grass on a fence, seeing Zhong Xin and herself gaining momentum, she would really lean over to her, that's unknown.But in his feeling, he was always disgusted with this girl who was like Zhong Xiu's shadow.

It's just that I only have to suffer for a few more days, and I'm very likely to leave this filthy place. Whether these people are following the trend, or whether they are following others, or they are doing their best, they will never be with me, so I might as well just let her go.

He thought so, but in Zhong Xin's heart, it was completely different.

You must know that he broke Bi'er's spirit in public at the gate of Bochunyuan that day, and it was not a sudden act of impulse.

After all, after all these years of hard work in the Zhong family, let alone the word forbearance, Zhong Xinyuan knows the meaning of it best.Ordinarily, on that day, he didn't have to get angry with Bi'er too early.

But right now, Fang Fang has taken over some authority in the inner house from He Yiru, and under the seemingly calm expression of the eldest wife, Zhong Xin understands the deep meaning hidden in her eyes.

Zhong Ren passed away and Zhong Li was injured. The reason why He Yiru took back her biological mother at this moment and pushed her to the top position was definitely not because of the master's dream in her mouth, but because she wanted to act as a pawn crossing the river. Well, it is right to help her hold the big house upside down first.

But since I have accepted this assignment, I naturally want to play this game of chess well.As for whether the chess game will be in the hands of the eldest wife in the future, or will be redrawn by herself, the Chuhe Han boundary, who knows before the time comes.

Therefore, when the girl in charge of the second room decides to change her clothes on her own, I must not help her power, but first extinguish her idea of ​​controlling Bo Chunyuan, and let the people behind her understand that the eldest room is not only majestic Fall, and make a comeback.

But also because of this, Zhong Xin pays more attention to her after losing Bi Er's spirit.After all, after this incident, if the people behind her can't hold back, they will eventually react.

Therefore, when Zhong Xin saw that Bi'er had behaved surprisingly well in the past few days, he had more doubts in his heart. Was it really his side?Having no skills, he secretly went to Jusheng and told him quietly that if he had spare time, he must carefully watch Bier's every move.

So at this moment, Ju Sheng followed Zhong Xin's instructions and secretly followed Bi Er, following her from the small kitchen.

It's just that she didn't expect that Bi'er, who hadn't seen anything unusual for several days, would actually have something strange tonight.Seeing this, Ju Sheng secretly admired Zhong Xin's vigilance, but at the same time felt nervous because he didn't see the truth, and just wanted to hurry up and tell Zhong Xin about it.

At this moment, when he heard Bi'er calling him behind him, he was startled, but had no choice but to stand down.

"Master Jusheng is really a young man, he walks as fast as flying, I follow closely behind, but I can't catch up with you."

Bi'er deliberately fanned her sleeves, but her eyes were fixed on Ju Sheng's face, wanting to see something in his eyes.

Ju Sheng scratched his hair, but pointed to the food box and said with a smile, "I walk fast, it's not because my sister has made a good supper these days, because I'm a little hungry, I want to go there quickly. My sister's box What's in it, it smells so sweet."

Seeing that he still looks like a child greedy for food, Bi'er felt relieved, walked towards the main room, and said with a smile: "They will bring those snacks, vegetables and fruits right away, and I brought three bowls of sugar water here to explain to you." Xia, since you're so thirsty, the eldest mistress and Qiye are about the same, so let's hurry over there."

While the two were talking, they entered the living room of the main room. Qin Huai, Zhong Xin and a few maids had just returned from burning paper money. When they saw the two of them entering the room together, they smiled at Ju Sheng: "Why are you so hungry? Why don't you just run to the kitchen? It's no wonder, my throat seems to be on fire, and I want to drink something cold to suppress it."

Hearing what he said, Bi'er's eyes flashed, and she said with a smile on her face: "Grandma has worked so hard these past few days. I was afraid that you would be impatient, so I went to bring some of today's sugar water first, for everyone. To relieve the heat, since you are so thirsty, drink these first, I will take these girls to help in the small kitchen, and let them bring things over quickly."

As she spoke, she opened the food box on the table and first brought the top bowl of sugar water to Qin Huai.

Ju Sheng saw it clearly, his face turned red in an instant, his mouth was open, and he wanted to stop it, but he didn't know how to say it. After all, he didn't see it clearly, so he couldn't just talk nonsense.

Seeing Qin Huai sniffing the crystal bowl, he said with a smile, "Today's sugar water is even sweeter than the previous few days, so I just hold this bowl and feel cool. I don't know how refreshing it will be when I drink it." .”

Here, Bi'er has already quickly brought the second bowl to Zhong Xin's hands. Hearing what Qin Huai said, she laughed and said, "Although grandma is a man, she should drink more sugar water to nourish her. This time is sweet and cool." All good, just drink more, grandma, to moisten your throat."

Qin Huai nodded, then picked up the bowl, drank a few sips, it was really icy and sweet, indescribably wonderful.

He tasted it in his mouth, and he wanted to take a few big gulps to dry up the remaining sugar water, but suddenly, Ju Sheng on the side yelled.

"Stop drinking, ma'am!"

Everyone was startled by him for a moment, and Bi'er's face changed instantly, but she recovered very quickly, pretending to be puzzled, and said to Ju Sheng:

"What did Young Master Ju Sheng say? Although I didn't hear it clearly, I was shocked."

Zhong Xin frowned, looked at the sugar water in his hand, but didn't make a sound yet.

Ju Sheng felt that for a moment, he couldn't explain clearly, if he said that there might be something wrong with the sugar water, but he really didn't see what Bi Er did.But Ruo rashly concluded that she hadn't touched any hands or feet in the water, but she was afraid that something might happen to the sugar water after Qin Huai and Zhong Xin drank it.

In desperation, he didn't care too much, strode up to Qin Huai, snatched the sugar water bowl, and said: "Grandma and Uncle Qi are sympathetic to Xia Jusheng, who has been crying for half a day. My throat seems to be exploding right now, I just want to drink a few more cold drinks, why don't I give up these bowls of sugar water first, and everyone waits for the ones from the kitchen."

As soon as he finished speaking, he didn't wait for others to speak, he picked up the bowl and gulped it down.After drinking a bowl, he turned around and walked to Zhong Xin, and went to grab the bowl in his hand again.

Zhong Xin hesitated for a moment, and Fang wanted to speak, but Ju Sheng gave him a hasty wink, snatched the bowl away, and drank it all in a few gulps.

Bi'er saw that she did everything possible to get the drug into the sugar water, and when Qinhuai and Zhongxin drank it, she would make a good show later.But who would have thought that Cheng Yaojin would come out on the way, and this Jusheng would mess up the situation for no reason.

She knew in her heart that according to the plan, some prominent servants in the two-bedroom and three-bedroom house would come to Bochun Garden soon, apparently to put incense on the coffin, but in fact they really wanted to catch the adulterer in bed.But now, Jusheng drank the drugged sugar water, but who was caught?

*********************************

The time Qiu Molin touched Bo Chunyuan through the back door, the fire in his heart had already reached his throat, and he felt that if he couldn't get satisfied with the male sister-in-law tonight, he was afraid that he would suffocate to death outside the male sister-in-law's bedroom.

He originally thought that it was already very late at night, and the sister-in-law was busy with the funeral for a day, so it was time for her to bathe and change clothes, and she was lying on the bed in a fragrant and soft body. When she heard herself calling out in a low voice outside the window, she would be elated. Begging to enter the room by himself.

With this thought in his mind, his feet seemed to be stepping on a cloud, and he floated around to the main room, but before he found the window of the bedroom, he saw the mourning hall first, and a group of Yexiang people came people.Looking carefully, it turned out that they were all the people who had just gone to Lao San Zhongli's side, and came here by borrowing the road at this moment, but it was hard to tell that they had much condolences for Zhong Ren, and it was not just a matter of favor.

Thinking of this, when he raised his eyes, his heart felt cold.

It turned out that among the crowd, the figure of Qin Huai, the male sister-in-law, was unexpectedly seen, under the plain candlelight, returning the salute to everyone one by one.

Although the old adage that "a man must be pretty and filial" is vividly reflected in the male sister-in-law, Qiu Molin secretly groaned in his heart. These people came here just in time. My male sister-in-law, how can I give myself a chance, I think that my dream of sex today will come to nothing again.

He was disappointed in his heart, and worried that if he went back too late, Zhong Yu would lose his temper, so he could only forcefully press down the belly full of passion just now, his eyes glanced at Qin Huai who was at the mourning hall, and he walked toward the back corner door unwillingly. slip away.

The entire backyard of Bochunyuan is dark and quiet at this time, with shadows of rockery and trees, but under the crescent moon, the courtyard is full of fragrance.

Qiu Molin walked to the path next to the wall in the dark, and after a short turn, there was the back corner door.But suddenly, he vaguely saw the figure of a young man leaning against a tree in front of him.Under the hazy moonlight, it could be seen that the young man was thin and weak, and his face was extremely immature, but he didn't know if he was drunk, his whole face could be seen to be flushed even under the dim moonlight.

Qiu Molin was stunned for a moment, he actually recognized that young man, it was Zhong Ren's former servant, now Ju Sheng who became the adopted son of his male sister-in-law.

After Ju Sheng drank nearly two large bowls of syrup soaked in drugs, he was no different from ordinary people at first.But Zhong Xin has been thinking secretly after seeing his unusual performance just now.The look in Bi'er's eyes also slowly changed.

But in less than half an hour, Ju Sheng only felt that he had fallen into the double sky of ice and fire, his body was cold and hot, and no matter whether he saw a man or a woman in his eyes, he seemed to see the most primitive state. I feel like a beast is living in my body, and I just want to swallow the living person in front of me alive and eat it into my stomach.After a while, he looked like a believer in front of the Buddha, wishing to immediately dedicate his entire body to the person in front of him, and let him torment him in every possible way.

He felt terribly frightened in his heart, and his whole body seemed to be soaked in sweat, drenched to the core.There was still the last bit of sobriety in his brain, he only said he was going to make it convenient, and after saying hello to Zhong Xin, he ran out.

At this moment, he managed to run to a corner of the backyard, no matter how difficult it was to hold on, hugging the tree roots around him, as if begging for sex, his mouth was full of obscene words that were usually difficult to utter.

Qiu Molin had just recognized Ju Sheng's face, and he was thinking in his heart that although this young man was not as good as Qin Huai, he still had a kind of pitiful taste. Who knew that he suddenly heard Ju Sheng's nonsense in his ears, every sentence was soft and fragrant. For a moment, just now Forcibly suppressing the fire below, it rushed to the top of the head in an instant.

At this moment, he had already thrown all kinds of taboos about being behind his elder brother's mourning hall, with his adopted son behind Zhong Ren in front of him, and being his wife and nephew, all he could think about was Qin Huai's face, and his hands Impatiently untiing his trouser belt, he muttered, "If you can't get on your sister-in-law, it's good to lend me your shit to relieve the fire!"

****************************************

After Zhong Zhongxiu received the two tricks from the little girl sent by Bi'er in the evening, he knew that she was going to do that thing tonight based on the marks made by the master and servant in advance.

She thought about it for a while, then called Zhong Yi, not only their juniors, but also the second and third wives and the respectable housekeepers of the Zhong family, all mobilized and said to go and see the third one first. Brother Zhong Li, go to Bochun Garden to give Zhong Ren a stick of night incense.

Based on the various calculations made by Zhong Xiu and Bi Er in advance, it is true that even the time was arranged properly. If there is no accident, the scene where the third young master is seen here, and Bo Chuncang is killed by a large group of people, if there is no accident, it should be The time when the person who has taken the drug, the drug's effect is strong, completely desperate, and indulges in joy.

It's a pity that after all the calculations, the accident will eventually happen.

When Zhong Yi and Zhong Xiu saw Qin Huai and Zhong Xin who came out in filial attire, for a while, the two brothers and sisters even changed their expressions in front of the white candles in the mourning hall even if they were acting again.

However, since it is here, this column of evening incense is still to be put on.

After everyone tossed about according to the rules, they said goodbye and left somewhat resentfully.However, Zhong Xiu, who was careful, suddenly discovered that at this time, only Lao Qi Zhongxin, the newly adopted adopted son Ju Sheng, and Qin Huai, the male sister-in-law who seemed to her to be in a trance, were the only ones returning the salute in the mourning hall. They all left quietly.

Although she had some doubts in her heart, she was even more annoyed that the planned good show did not succeed.When they left, they met Bi'er on the side and made a secret agreement.

When a group of people came out of Bochun Garden and went to their residences, she and Zhong Yi waited for a while not far away.

Sure enough, after a while, Bi'er looked hurriedly and slipped out from inside looking around.

The three of them hid in a remote place, and they heard Bier explain the ins and outs of Cai just now. After she mentioned Ju Shengcai's various abnormal behaviors just now, Zhong Yi and Zhong Xiu looked at each other for a long time, but did not say a word.

After Bi'er left, the brother and sister did not return immediately, but stood side by side in a private place, looking up at the crescent moon in the sky together.

After a while, Zhong Yi suddenly said quietly: "Even if the moon is no match for the sun, there are always a few stars around it, which are close to it, just like people, they always have helpers."

Zhong Xiu glanced sideways at her elder brother, and said quietly, "In my opinion, it's not just as simple as a helper, she can drink it for someone without even knowing what medicine the other party is giving. It's a loyal dog."

Zhong Yi nodded, but Zhong Xiu said softly again: "Speaking of dogs, I think of that Jing Ba who drowned in the well. In fact, it was quite loyal to me back then. It wasn't that someone killed him in the well... maybe our Zhong family's dogs are all related to that well."
