Chapter 16 God of Plague!

"Have you rested over there?"

"Well, after struggling for half a night, there is finally no sound." Hong Lai helped Yu Qiuping loosen her long hair and gently take care of it, "That person is really, haha, he can't see his position clearly, and he still thinks he is the eldest lady."

Yu Qiuping sat on the embroidered pier, looking at her yellowed face in the mirror, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

She was born in an ordinary way. She was not as beautiful as Yu Pianpian when she was urinating, and her skin color was not as fair and pleasant as Yu Pianpian's, so she always had low self-esteem.

I originally thought that Yu Pianpian's snow-skinned skin was rare in the world, but unexpectedly, Yu Linlang, whom I saw for the first time today, had an ordinary face, but her jade-like skin could be broken by a blow, giving people an impression of extremely beautiful bones. feeling.

If it were you who had skin as thick as cream...

"Miss?"

Yu Qiuping came back to her senses, "No news about Yuyanfang's snow pear ointment?"

Hearing this, Honglai immediately grimaced, "Miss, I have people squatting there every day. Alas, but that snow pear ointment is so popular. I haven't seen it since I spent 5,000 taels on a bottle half a month ago." The second bottle is out.”

"The reputation of snow pear cream is getting bigger and bigger now. I heard that the nobles in Beijing can't get enough of it themselves, not to mention that it has to be transported all the way to us."

"My servant feels that even if we encounter a bottle by chance, we won't be able to afford so much money to buy it."

Yu Qiuping slapped a box of rouge heavily on the dressing table, "I asked you to send someone to keep an eye on it. Where did all the nonsense come from. I know the money thing."

Yu Qiuping stretched her long neck, stared at the yellowing figure in the mirror, and said quietly, "It can always happen, soon."

……

"It's coming, it's coming! Knock, it's coming!" In the early morning, the concierge looked confused and ran to pull the door bolt.

I saw two waiters carrying a large huanghuali screen and pushing towards the door.

"Hey, you guys? Who are you?"

Jiu Jin pushed the door hard, squeezed in front of the waiter and stepped in, "Move in, move in, everyone move in."

"Eh? You!"

"What are you doing? Get out of the way. A good dog won't block the way." Jiujin pushed the concierge aside without ceremony and directed the group of people to carry things through the door.

In addition to the large screen, there were several people carrying or carrying some wood and tools through the door.

"Hey, hey, hey." Aunt Hu, who came over after hearing the sound, was startled by the fight and hurriedly stepped forward to stop her, "Miss Jiu Jin, Miss Jiu Jin, what are you doing? How can these foreign men do what they want? Step into the backyard?”

"Okay, you can find some rough ladies to come over and help deliver these things to my young lady's courtyard."

"Girl Jiujin, this?"

"What are you talking about?" Jiujin waved his hand impatiently, "I'm rushing to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for my young lady! You hurry up and call more people to move here."

Aunt Hu was helpless, so she quickly called over a young boy and asked some tough women to come over and move it. She followed behind Jiujin and said, "Miss Jiujin, the kitchen also has its own rules. If you need anything, you have to tell me in advance..." "

As soon as the two of them entered the kitchen backyard, they saw a circle of people surrounding the courtyard.

Aunt Hu immediately raised her eyebrows and shouted, "Are you all just lazing around here? Is the old lady's Tremella and Lotus Seed Soup ready? Is the breakfast ready?"

"Mother Hu." The kitchen steward rubbed his hands and stepped forward, "It's not that I'm not doing my job, but the kitchen door has been locked from the inside and we can't get in."

Aunt Hu pushed it with her hands, and sure enough, it didn't move at all.

"Then what are you waiting for? Find some tools to pry open the door quickly."

"No need to go to such trouble." Jiu Jin strode forward, "I'll do it!"

After saying this, he kicked on the two wooden doors. Everyone heard the "click" sound of the wooden bolts breaking from inside, and couldn't help but look at each other.

Under the constant urging of Aunt Hu, the kitchen steward and his entourage stepped through the door, and then let out frightened screams one after another.

Jiu Jin glanced at the woman's body lying on the ground, with a pale face and empty eyes looking at the sky. A whole piece of his belly was missing, and another piece of his inner abdomen was hollowed out.

"Ouch!!" The kitchen helpers rushed out and vomited in the corner.

Aunt Hu and the kitchen steward turned pale, shook their legs and exited the door. They forced themselves to calm down and said, "Quick, quick, go and tell Madam that something happened in the kitchen."

……

Yu Qiuping was woken up by various bang-dong-dong sounds early in the morning, and she was so angry that she threw her jade pillow.

Honglai opened the door and wanted to yell at the other side, but he saw Yu Linlang's girl turning around and smiling at him with a plane.

She immediately fell silent and took a step back involuntarily.

I just felt that Miss Linlang who came home yesterday and her girl were quite scary, looking ghostly.

Jiujin picked up the polished door and window and looked at them again and again. He nodded with satisfaction and turned around to install them.

She was very quick with her hands and feet. She installed all the newly made doors and windows early in the morning and tried to fasten them with copper bolts. Even with her brute strength, it was very difficult to push them from the outside.

"Girl, it's almost done." Now satisfied, Jiujin packed up his tools and entered the door.

Yu Linlang was sitting by the small copper stove at the table eating breakfast. When she saw her coming in sweating profusely, she hurriedly handed her a handkerchief.

"I told you to do it after eating, there's no rush now."

"It's okay." Jiujin Dalala picked up the water cup and took a sip. "Girl, please eat quickly. Maybe someone will be sent to ask questions later."

Yu Linlang nodded. She had already learned from Jiu Jin that there was a murder in the kitchen backyard.

Fortunately, the master and servant were well prepared for this trip, bringing all the commonly used tables, chairs, cabinets, beds, dishes, and stoves.

Use a small copper stove to simply boil noodles and eat them, which is quick and convenient.

After they had filled their stomachs and just packed up their things and stood up, they heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the small courtyard.

The person who came was Madam Zhao's dowry.

Yu Qiuping hurriedly came forward with the girl and asked with a smile on her face, "Why are you here so early in the morning? Does your mother have anything to tell you?"

Aunt Zhao had a solemn look on her face, "The Master of the Prison Department has arrived. Please invite all the girls to go to the main hall and the back hall to wait for questioning."

Department of Prisons? Question?

Yu Qiuping's face was full of astonishment, apparently unaware that there was a life-threatening lawsuit in the kitchen.

"Where's Miss Linlang? Come out quickly and come together."

Yu Linlang walked out of the east chamber and looked at Yu Qiuping.

"Let's go, Miss Linlang, take all the maids with you. Don't keep Madam waiting." Compared to yesterday's amiable attitude, Grandma Zhao's attitude today was obviously arrogant.

Even Yu Qiuping noticed that Aunt Zhao seemed to be somewhat targeted, how could Yu Linlang not notice it?

Hong Lai and Lu Cai looked at each other with an expression of confusion.

Aunt Zhao pursed her lips and led Yu Linlang, Yu Qiuping and the others to the front yard.

When they arrived at the front yard, Aunt Zhao took them around to the back hall. As soon as they entered, they heard an angry scolding from the "God of Plague".

The broken flower porcelain cup suddenly exploded at Yu Linlang's feet.

"Girl." Jiu Jin quickly stretched out his hand to support her arm.

Yu Linlang slowly looked up and saw a beautiful woman in her early thirties sitting on the Grand Master's chair, glaring at her angrily.
