The red house is not a pity

"Mother? What happened?" Lin Que's eyes flashed fiercely when he saw that his mother was still looking overly frightened.

Whoever frightened the mother like this, he will never forgive them.

Mother always pays attention to bearing and elegance, but at this time, her mother's face paled just because of the memories. Thinking about it, the matter must be serious. Thinking of her mother facing the big event at home alone, Lin Que's heart was full of self-discipline.

He should have come back sooner.

My sister has entered the palace, and he is not with his mother, leaving his mother alone in this changing capital... He should come back sooner.Fortunately, no matter how big it was, it didn't hurt my mother.

Otherwise, he would be guilty of death.

"That day, Zhuangzi from the south of our family came to the capital to deliver this season's dry goods, and there were a few pieces of Jinhua ham in it. I thought that the fourth girl liked to eat, so I picked two and asked them to send them to her... ..”

Xichun had just passed the filial piety period, and her mouth was full of gluttony. Hearing that Jia Min sent someone to bring her Jinhua ham, she quickly asked the cook in the small kitchen in her yard to make her stewed pork elbow with ham.

But as soon as this thing came up, Xichun didn't think there was anything wrong, but it was Liu'er who noticed something wrong first.

The puppet in the cultivation world is more reliable than the old lady in the deep palace.Grandma Zhang was not around, and Nanny Liu, relying on Xichun's kindness, stayed in the room and let the newly recruited disciples serve her meals. Except for Liu'er, there were a few big girls in Xichun's house.

Under Xichun's signal, Liu'er took a small bowl and filled a bowl with soup and meat. When she was about to serve it to Xichun, she found that the taste of this dish was different from before.

In the posture of holding the bowl, Liu'er picked up the soup spoon in the bowl, scooped up a spoonful, brought it to her nose and sniffed it carefully, then frowned, and put a little soup into her mouth, after that she was dumbfounded. There was a puzzled look on his face.

When Xichun saw her, her heart skipped a beat.Looking left and right at the girls in the room, he waved his hand to send them away, and then asked Liu Er, "What's wrong with this dish?"

Liu'er has never been like this.No, it can't be said that it hasn't happened.This situation happened many years ago, when Mrs. Wang wanted to poison herself to death.

What is the situation now?

The ham was sent by my cousin and future mother-in-law.The elbows were picked up from the big kitchen today, and the dishes were cooked by Jiao Fu’s family. After that, the dining table was laid out by Ru Hua and others.

In summary, if there is a problem with vegetables, where is the problem?

And this dish, who is it for?

After a while, Liu'er finished this 'research', and said to Xichun, "Girl, the ham is wrong. I don't know what ingredients were put in it. And it looks like it was fed in when it was still alive."

Medicinal ham?

When Xichun was reading novels, she had only heard of medicinal chicken.Now I have personally experienced the medicine ham once.

That being the case, is it the problem of the pig farmers?

After thinking for a long time, Xichun, a rookie with only theory but no actual combat experience, had no choice but to invite Madam Liu here.

Before Mammy Liu came, she didn't know why, but she knew that something serious must have happened.

Because based on her understanding of Xichun, she is the least likely to disturb herself or others when eating.

After dismissing all the girls and boys in the house, Xichun endured the hunger in her stomach, and told Mama Liu about the ham one by one.

As for Liu'er who discovered this, it's not like she didn't say anything.Instead, he used a very simple four words to summarize what happened.

Ham is poisonous.

Xichun had no choice but to wait for himself to go into battle and tell the matter in person.

Grandma Liu was shocked when she heard this, and hurried over.I sniffed the ham carefully, but unfortunately I still didn't smell anything.

But she believed that Liu'er would not be aimless.

Don't say it's aimless, it's a master who can speak without speaking.

When the girl was 16 years old, they had been together for 16 years, and they were acquainted with each other.Therefore, even if I didn't see anything, I still believed in Liu'er's judgment.

"Girl, I'd better inform Grandma Rong about this matter. I think it's not like it's aimed at you after all this trouble." In her eyes, her girl is very nice, but in the eyes of others Come on, it's really worthless.

Could it be that the Lin family wanted to destroy the marriage and not want to ruin their reputation, so they planned to put their girls to death?

No, no, the people in this world who are more afraid of ruining their marriages are actually the Lin family.

Lin Jia's marriage is a situation of mutual benefit and mutual benefit.So this matter is definitely not aimed at my own girl.

But this ham was sent by the Lin family?If it's not for the girl, who is it for?

Xichun had never encountered such a thing before, so she would naturally follow Mammy Liu's arrangement.So Liu'er was sent to invite Qin Keqing.

Qin Keqing was having dinner, and the four men in the family were difficult to serve.Her man doesn't like to eat vegetables, and his chopsticks and eyes are always on the meat.The eldest son doesn't like to eat meat, and the two younger sons fight and fight while eating.Every meal is more tiring than fighting a battle.

If it wasn't for the rules set by Xichun, the nanny is not allowed to help at the table during meals, she wouldn't be so tired.But she also understands.In a big family like theirs, the relationship between mother and son and brother is weak, which is mainly here.

The nanny and girl waited close to her every day, and spent more time with her son than her own mother. If she followed the rules when eating, the child would naturally get closer to the nanny in the long run.

Not to mention anything else, just say that when Jia Zhe was young, Qin Keqing was busy with the housekeeper, dealing with the West Mansion, going out to socialize and so on, so the time he spent with Jia Zhe was short. There was a time when Jia Zhe just recognized someone , except for the nanny to hug, no one cares.When Xichun saw her, she felt a little guilty in her heart.

She is usually not busy, and she always goes to play with Jia Zhe, and she packs and takes him back to play with everything he glances at.Why did Jia Zhe look scared when he saw him?After being watched quietly for a few days, they realized that the nanny was really vicious and had been training Jia Zhe to only kiss herself and not others, otherwise she would ruthlessly pinch Jia Zhe in an inconspicuous place.

Thinking about it from another angle, this nanny is also a talent.Self-taught 'beast training skills', also practiced.If she is given some more time to develop a conditioned reflex on Jia Zhe, it is estimated that Jia Zhe will subconsciously alienate his mother when he sees his mother in the future.

After controlling the eldest son of the mansion, will this nanny and the whole family still worry about their future?

After dismissing the nanny, I checked carefully, and found that the inconspicuous spot on her body was bruised and purple, which made Qin Keqing cry.From now on, let alone Jia Zhe, no matter how busy she is, she will always be with her, even the twins.

Although it is a bit tiring to do it by yourself, the friendship between father and son, mother and son has deepened.Just like at this time, although Qin Keqing was infuriated by the four big and small men on the table who kept saying nothing, her heart was still full of happiness.I had just picked up a piece of air-dried civet cat for my eldest son, when Xichun's servants came to invite her over.

Seeing that the look of the servant who invited someone was a bit wrong, Jia Rong and Jia Zhe stood up with Qin Keqing.The twins are still not very sensible, and they still don't quite understand what's going on at this time.

One put the meat in the bowl into the bowl of the father, and the other threw the celery in the bowl into the bowl of the brother. No one appreciates the sneaky and perfect cooperation.

The three stood up at the same time, wanting to follow to see what was going on.But the person Xichun sent was Liu'er, and Xichun only said to invite Qin Keqing, so she couldn't let Jia Rong and his son go with her.So Qin Keqing was the only one who came to Xichun's courtyard.

When we arrived at Xichun's courtyard, Mother Liu told the story, Qin Keqing thought about it for a while, and opened his mouth and said, "Could it be that this matter was directed at Concubine Lin in the palace? I remember that the Lin family is from the south, and there is nothing wrong with loving ham And when it's cold, Concubine Lin especially likes to use some ham to season the soup in the kitchen. Last time in the palace, I heard her say that Jinhua ham is used to make soup, and a handful of green vegetables are sprinkled in it to serve with noodles Eating, or making rice is especially delicious.

After hearing this, my aunt specially made the small kitchen of the Compassionate Ning Palace cook according to what Concubine Lin said.I ate a whole bowl of noodles. "

Daiyu has developed a good appetite these years, and with Xichun as a foodie, she has a certain love for food, beautiful clothes, and beautiful accessories.The empress dowager doesn't like poetry and doing things, but she is interested in talking about food and clothing.

Every time Daiyu was recruited to talk, no matter what the two talked about at the beginning, they would definitely talk about eating in the end.I was especially envious when I learned that one of Daiyu's dowry girls was excellent at cooking.

Shui Yan knew about it, and went out of the palace to pick out a cook with good craftsmanship and gave it to his old lady.The beautiful queen mother is like a child, always saying to compare with Daiyu whose food is delicious.

Jia Min can enter the palace six times a month, but Jia Min has a sense of proportion, and the amount of entering the palace is limited to two or three times a month. Every time he enters the palace, any new food, fabrics, and fruits outside will be sent to the palace. .

After all, everyone knows how efficient the people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs are.And it is customary to think that those that are too fresh cannot be sent to the palace immediately.

At the beginning, Jia Min went to see her daughter in the palace. When she saw that the fruits on the plate were not watery, she thought it was because the people in the palace were harsh on her daughter. Not much better than a girl.

The emperor is so filial, how can anyone neglect his old lady, after thinking about it, it is only the matter of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so after that, Jia Min's gifts are all seasonal food.

Anyway, they didn't have much money, and Shui Yan and the queen mother also found that Jia Min's gift was also a homely item, so they didn't say anything.Of course, Jia Min is the only one who can think of giving these to her daughter. According to Shui Yan and the queen mother's eyeliner, the women in other palaces are almost all gold, silver, or all kinds of jewelry and jade. .

And these Shui Yan did not stop them.

Although he lived a "careful" life, he didn't let anyone lack clothing and food. It was their own business that their parents were willing to make up for it.As for what these things are used for, it depends on whether he buys them or not.

The little eunuchs around him often receive filial piety from these harem women, such as saying a few nice words in front of him, or revealing his whereabouts, etc. These Shuiyans know it, not only know it, but sometimes they are willing to see it The look of those women competing to bid.

...Well, to be honest, there is a eunuch beside him who is responsible for drawing the commission.

Anyway, in the past, it wasn't that foreign wives could not bring gifts to the concubine when they entered the palace, but there is nothing to stop them now.As long as the registration is done at the gate of the palace, there will be no problem.

With her mother's concern, Daiyu's recipes are even more abundant.But Daiyu also knew that she couldn't eat alone, and if she got any good things, she would give some to the Queen Mother.

Foodies are contagious, Xichun was passed on to Daiyu, and Daiyu passed it on to the Queen Mother.The daily life of the two is to dress up beautifully, then train their little parrot, and then discuss with Daiyu how to "difficult" her younger brother and daughter-in-law, and listen to Daiyu telling the embarrassing things about Xichun to the queen mother , is to eat, eat, eat.

The most depressing thing for the queen mother is that Daiyu has a physique that doesn't get fat no matter how much she eats. Measure the size again to make new clothes to wear.

The queen mother died a long time ago, and she doesn't need to care about her image for the sake of pampering, so even if she was well fed, she didn't stop this newly discovered entertainment project.

For this reason, Shui Yan deliberately allocated an extra layer of quota to Daiyu, just to let Daiyu properly make her mother happy.

In the whole palace, only Daiyu did not bribe the people around Shui Yan, except for those who passed on errands, there was no extra reward, but Shuiyan in the whole palace only gave Daiyu an example.

If you don't look at it differently, it's a fool who doesn't believe it.

Shui Yan also couldn't figure out what kind of attitude he had towards Daiyu.He likes to pet her and watch her.He wanted to be nice to her, but he couldn't bear her to frown.

Even if she was just as healthy as a woman, and forced to express her sorrow for writing new words, he didn't want to see her cry.

But he was afraid of pampering her too much...

No one knew about Shui Yan's entanglement, but other motivated women in the palace saw this situation, although they could not compare with Dai Yu's advantage, they could do something by themselves.

For a moment, the queen who had been passive and helpless saw a glimmer of hope.

She wants to be poisonous.Die that pair of goblins!An old woman of untouchable origin still wants to be her mother-in-law, she dreams.

And that little fairy Lin...

Back to the present, Qin Keqing thinks very clearly that as an illegitimate daughter of the royal family who has not recognized her master, her death will not affect anything, and the eldest daughter of their family, Miss Xichun, is even more so.

Although everyone in the capital knew that Xu was married to Concubine Lin's younger brother, but Lin Que had just passed the examination and had the title of Uncle Ning Yuan, but this was not valued much by people.

Firstly, he is young, and secondly, the Lin family is weak.Concubine Lin has not given birth to a son and a half daughter after entering the palace for two or three years. From this point of view, it is not the first choice for marriage.

So if they didn't come for her and Xichun, then they came for Concubine Lin and...Emperor Shuiyan in the palace.

"Wait a minute, I remember. I often heard from my aunt that the emperor likes to eat in Concubine Lin's palace. Could it be those rebels who rebelled against the party?"

Either for the beloved concubine, or for the emperor.The more Qin Keqing thought about it, the more she felt that this was very possible.

"No, today is the day when the [-]th enters the palace. My aunt must have brought things in."

That's right, Jia Min divided the ham early in the morning, and brought a few strips of Jinhua ham and some dry goods from Zhuangzi in the south into the palace.

Daiyu is in charge of the palace affairs now, so it won't be that troublesome for Jia Min to bring things into the palace.

Daiyu and Niang met and handed over the things, so Daiyu ordered people to pack up the ham and use it for dinner.

And the empress, who still had some eyeliner in the palace, heard that Jia Min brought Jinhua ham into the palace, and a distorted smile appeared on her face.

Lin's cheap.People, how many good things have ruined her.He can't deal with her when he is close, but there is still a way to let her know how powerful he is when he is far away.

Thinking of the events in the palace in the past two years, the queen thought of killing two birds with one stone.If it not only poisons Mrs. Lin and the old witch, but also poisons them.dead emperor.

Then she, the queen, can also be promoted to a higher level.

She teamed up with Shi Xianglan, asked their historians to come forward, and bought off the servants of the Zhuangzi to the south of the Lin family.

Then, she spent more than a year getting people to smoke silkworms to weave brocade, boil medicine to feed pigs, and raise some civet cats free-range since childhood, or water fruit trees with water soaked in safflower and spray them on the fruits.Made into dried fruit, it has medicinal effect.

And this batch of things was delivered to the Lin family in the capital this year, and then delivered to Xichun and Daiyu through Jia Min's hands.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has a lot of people and hands. Not to mention that Daiyu will carefully inspect the things they are motivated, and will not use them if they find anything wrong. Even if they are only suspicious, they will throw things away far away.

But the dry goods from Zhuang Shangzi in the south of the Lin family are different from the ones sent by my mother.Daiyu really didn't think about it for a while, so she asked someone to take it to the small kitchen.

Because Jia Min knew how to handle affairs, and was thinking of the queen mother's preferences, of course she wouldn't just bring a piece of Jinhua ham into the palace.

So in the pile of dry goods, there are things that she honored the Queen Mother on Daiyu's behalf.

On the same day, the mother and daughter spoke back, and Daiyu kept Jia Min for lunch.After taking a nap for a while, the Empress Dowager called Jia Min and Daiyu to draw cards.

After drawing cards until before dinner, Jia Min left the palace with the results of three minor losses and one major win.

Although when entering the palace, the queen mother did not greet her.Of course, this kind of thing is also common.But playing mahjong with the queen mother all afternoon is not the honor that ordinary people can have.

Jia Min, who came home every time, didn't know that her future daughter-in-law was almost poisoned to death by her.

Qin Keqing and Xichun analyzed the situation. Although they didn't know who did such a shameful thing, Xichun still sent someone to inform Jia Min.

Mother Liu was afraid that others would not understand, so she volunteered to lead Qingwen there.

But Xichun was afraid that something might happen, so she quietly told Feng'er about it in her heart.

Coincidentally, Daiyu sent Jia Min away, and happened to be staying in the Empress Dowager's palace for dinner before returning to the palace.

Daiyu held the handkerchief and spread her hands upwards, looking extremely aggrieved and unwilling, "The concubine has lost a lot this afternoon, so I can't just go back empty-handed like this. The empress dowager will enjoy the meal."

This afternoon, the two mothers played tricks, the queen mother was the big winner, and the dowry mother who had been serving the queen mother for many years also won some money. Jia Min won and lost, but he didn't lose much. After the whole game, only Daiyu was the winner. Take money out.

This kind of skill of playing mahjong with the aristocrats will seriously pass it on to their daughters, the purpose is to lose money quietly.

Seeing this, the queen mother also teased Daiyu. "That's not going to work. Last time I lost a bag of small golden beans, this time I just made money. Letting you eat is another money-losing business. No, no, you should go."

It's interesting to win and lose, or to be fooled to win money all the time, so what's the point?

Daiyu acted as if she didn't want to compromise and felt a bit embarrassed, and looked at the queen mother and discussed, "Hey, today, the concubine's mother sent some Jinhua ham, how about eating the concubine's one first at night? Not today. Eating the Queen Mother's food? Adding a side dish to the minister's dishes, is that all right?"

"Haha, if that's the case, let's ask the emperor to have dinner together." The queen mother turned her head and said to the waiting palace servants, "Go ahead and see what the emperor is doing. If you are not busy, invite him to come over for dinner. Said that his mother won a piece of Jinhua ham today, and asked him to taste if the taste is different from the past."

The palace man laughed and went away after hearing this.

Daiyu looked sad and asked people to go back to her small kitchen in the palace to fetch Jinhua ham.

"How much can we eat? Let the nanny watch, don't be too honest and bring them all." Daiyu told the palace maid worriedly while asking people to take it.

Daiyu's stingy look made the Queen Mother laugh again, and opened her mouth to call her 'narrow'.

When I was young, the emperor arrived, and everyone saluted according to their status and rank, and sat down.Shui Yan asked with great interest about the queen mother's record this afternoon, and then echoed the queen mother, saying that she would have a good taste of the ham she won.

For a while, the dishes and meals in the small kitchen were served, and the maid served them like water, and then the three of them gathered around a small round table like a family, preparing to go to heaven together, oh, wrong, eating poisonous ham together.
