Struggle of Baochai

"Ma'am, girl."

Tongshou opened the curtain and entered the room, and said in a low voice: "I just went to the kitchen to ask. Today, my wife's meals are all cooked by the old people in the house. It's no different from the past. The girls who eat are also in the wife's room. Yes, I haven't had any contact with outsiders in the past few days, and I didn't meet anyone on the way to the food, and I didn't stop too much."

"That's surprising."

Baochai said softly: "It's not that different, and who gave the medicine?"

Before she could think about it, Tong Fu also came back. Tong Fu's face was a little bit bad, and he approached Mrs. Xue as soon as he entered the door: "Ma'am, I showed the doctor that bowl of soup, and said that there is indeed medicine in the soup. It's not a secret medicine, it's just a few medicinal ingredients put together, and if you take it for a long time, it will make people weak and sick."

Mrs. Xue's eyes were a little angry: "I see, give the doctor some rewards. In addition, you and Tongshou should check carefully whether any of the servants in the family have seen outsiders in the past few days. What's unusual? .”

Tong Fu agreed and was about to step back when Baochai said, "Who is in the kitchen today?"

Mrs. Xue turned her head to look at Baochai, Baochai smiled: "Even if the cook is fine, the food is fine, and the road is fine, we can only find excuses on the people who enter the kitchen."

Tongfu is an old man with errands. Hearing Baochai's question, he said in detail: "Today, my wife's housekeeper Liu and everyone went to the kitchen to find something, and Xiaocui from the girl's room went to the kitchen to ask for two things. a cucumber, and six or seven little girls have been to the kitchen."

Baochai pondered, everyone in Liu's family is mother's companion, and it is reasonable to say that she would not harm her mother, and Baochai, the girl Xiaocui, also knows a little bit. Like Wen, she is most likely not to play tricks, and she probably wouldn't do the dirty work of adding medicine to meals.

Those little girls were a little uncertain.

"You ask someone to watch those girls carefully." Baochai called Tongfu to give instructions, then paused and said, "Lian... Lianliu and Xiaocui are also watching."

"Baochai?" Mrs. Xue was a little unhappy: "Master Liu is my companion, why..."

Baochai looked at Mrs. Xue, and said softly: "In any case, everyone who has been to the kitchen is a little suspicious. Since you want to keep an eye on those little girls, you can't leave everyone from Liu and Xiaocui, no matter who they are. People, we have to keep an eye on them, as long as they are fine, if anything happens, we will not be kept in the dark."

Seeing that Baochai seemed to have made up her mind, Mrs. Xue could only sigh and agreed.

Not to mention how the Xue family is, but Zhu Xiuzhen got Baochai's letter, thought it over for herself, went to school to ask for leave for Baochai, and discussed with Su Lan and others, trying to find some ways to help Baochai .

It's just that these people are young girls, and the family has power, but the power is not their own. Even if they want to help Baochai, they can't move the power of the family, they have nothing to do.

Liu Sulan thought for a long time, and finally decided to go to Xue's house to visit Baochai together during the school break.

Several female students signed up, and after discussing with each other, they decided to join in and buy a sincere gift for Baochai to take with them.

After school, Zhu Xiuzhen bid farewell to her classmates and went home. As soon as she entered the house, she heard a teasing voice: "Sister Xiuzhen, long time no see, my brother wants to hurt you."

Zhu Xiuzhen walked a few steps, and saw a young man in white standing in the middle of the courtyard. The young man was dressed in white like snow, and the hem of his clothes was fluttering in the wind. He was holding a folding fan in one hand, and the other was behind his back. With a Xifu crabapple behind him, it is even more obvious that the whole person exudes an extremely handsome demeanor.

This kind of character's demeanor, if you just look at it, it is very charming, but when he speaks, it destroys the whole beautiful scenery.

"Sister Xiuzhen, come here and give me a hug." Juvenile Jin Zhu Xiuzhen stretched out her hand: "I still remember when you and I first met, you were bubbling with snot and I was still in the mud. Who would have thought we would not see each other for a few years?" , Sister Xiuzhen has also become a stunning beauty, oops."

The young man screamed, it turned out that Zhu Xiuzhen had already stepped on his foot fiercely.

"Chen Yu, I said earlier that you are not allowed to enter my house again, or I will let the dog bite you." Zhu Xiuzhen gritted her teeth at the young man, remembering that she was still a green fruit back then, and the little girl had never gone out. The day was also like this, Prince Yi who came to the south of the Yangtze River brought a little boy to her house, the boy was so white and tender, Zhu Xiuzhen liked it from the bottom of her heart just by looking at it.

A little girl with pink bubbles in her eyes went to hold the boy's hand, but she pulled a big bug. When she looked again, there was only the boy's wicked smile in front of her eyes. Zhu Xiuzhen was so frightened that she slept the whole night Before he knew it, on the second day, he chased after him even more, and went to find a boy to play again, but the boy wiped Zhu Xiuzhen's face with the mud mixed with the boy's soup...

Thinking back to the years when she was tricked and didn't know how to live or die, Zhu Xiuzhen couldn't swallow the breath she held in her heart.

She only heard a sentence in a Western book, and it was really appropriate to describe the young man in front of her, that is, the face of an angel and the heart of a devil.

"Aiya." The young man smiled and shouted: "Is that why sister Xiuzhen wants to be a brother?"

"Chen Yu, that's enough." A short-haired young man in foreign clothes turned out from the hanging flower door: "You are not young anymore, you should calm down and stop teasing others."

He looked at Zhu Xiuzhen again: "Sister Xiuzhen, it's really Chen Yu's fault, I will apologize to you on his behalf."

How dare Zhu Xiuzhen ask this young man to make an apology, she turned sideways and did not dare to accept this gift: "You really beat me, if my father sees it, he will scold me again."

"No problem." Chen Yu opened the folding fan with a coquettish demeanor, "I'm begging Uncle Zhu."

Zhu Xiuzhen didn't care about her ladylike demeanor, so she rolled her eyes and said in her heart, don't ask for favors, as long as you don't make trouble, it's fine.

After glaring at Chen Yu, Zhu Xiuzhen turned around and left. Chen Yu and the short-haired boy followed closely: "Yong Wei, hurry up."

The short-haired boy tapped Chen Yu's head: "Call me cousin."

Chen Yu smiled: "Yongwei,"

Zhu Xiuzhen rolled her eyes again, and walked quickly towards her room. Yongwei, the boy with short hair, followed a few steps: "Sister Xiuzhen, this time I brought you a gift from abroad."

Chen Yu also chased after her: "I also brought a gift for my sister."

Zhu Xiuzhen turned around abruptly, gritted her teeth and said, "Who is your sister?"

Chen Yu raised his right hand: "Of course it's sister Xiuzhen, I brought all the presents, could it be that sister Xiuzhen wants to return them, oh, my heart aches for my brother."

Zhu Xiuzhen gritted her teeth: "How can someone like Lord Chen have a grandson like you? With your appearance, don't call him the Chen family when you go out in the future, so as not to embarrass the ancestors."
