Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 10 Survival

"Miss is not afraid anymore and dare not be careless, just in case..." Nanny Liao stubbornly dragged Du Heng back.Who knows what kind of poison is soaked in that material, she dare not let the girl take risks.

Du Heng said lightly: "Don't worry, mama, this material is soaked in cartilage fragrance, and only after wearing it for a long time will the toxin gradually invade the human body, and eventually make the person weak and dead. It doesn't matter if you only touched it a few times just now, just wash your hands later. .Yangmei, go get water and wash your hands." Yangmei brought in the material just now, so Du Heng gave such orders.

Yang Mei hurriedly answered and went out to get water to wash her hands. When she heard that the material had been soaked in poison, Yang Mei was scared to death. She ran to the courtyard and washed her hands seven or eight times, and her hands were red and swollen. Like a carrot, Yang Mei returned to the room with her hands raised, and asked with lingering fear: "Girl, I've washed this slave seven or eight times, is it all right?"

Du Heng nodded, seeing that Yang Mei's hands were very red and swollen, she shook her head slightly, opened the small drawer on the dressing table, took out a small porcelain vial, put it on the table, and said lightly: "Take it and wipe it once in the morning and at night, and wipe it repeatedly. Three days."

Yang Mei hurriedly went forward and bowed her knees to thank the girl for her reward. Du Heng didn't speak, but just sighed softly. Nanny Liao and Yang Mei followed her, and they had been wronged all these years.Although Du Heng didn't say it in his mouth, he was actually very sorry in his heart.

Nanny Liao knew her daughter's thoughts best, she hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Girl, this material has been poisoned, there may be problems with those jewelry, you check it?"

Du Heng nodded, walked directly to the table, gently opened one of the small wooden boxes, and Mammy Liao and Yang Mei also stretched their heads to look, only to see that the golden light in the box was so dazzling, Mammy Liao was better, she used to be She has seen it before, but Yangmei can't do it. She has never seen so many gold jewelry, and her eyes are straight.

Du Heng picked up a plum blossom hairpin casually, and frowned slightly. This plum blossom hairpin was quite heavy, and it felt a bit overwhelming when holding it, but if it was really a red gold plum blossom hairpin, with the weight of this hairpin The size should not be overwhelming, even if the silver body is gilded, this weight is still wrong.

Seeing the girl frowning while holding the plum hairpin, Nanny Liao asked anxiously, "Girl, what's wrong with this hairpin?"

Du Heng said slowly: "The weight is wrong, it's too heavy."

Nanny Liao hurriedly said, "Madam, please show this old servant."

Du Heng didn't speak, and handed the plum hairpin to Mammy Liao casually.Nanny Liao weighed it in her hand, frowned and said, "Young lady is right, the weight is really wrong. If this hairpin is not made of copper, it is filled with lead."

"Mommy, what did you say?" Du Heng was startled, and immediately asked.

Nanny Liao hurriedly said, "Miss Hui, from the experience of this old servant, this hairpin is either made of copper, or it is hollow and filled with lead."

"Bronze tires, fragrant cartilage... so ruthless!" Du Heng's face changed suddenly, his hands were tightly clenched into fists, and the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, which showed how angry she was.

"Girl, what do you say?" Nanny Liao and Yang Mei immediately asked in unison when they saw that the girl's expression was not right.

Du Heng took a deep breath, forced himself to stabilize his mind, and said in a deep voice: "Cartilage Fragrance kills people, with the weight of this material, it will take at least five years, and you have to wear it all the time during these five years." This is a material soaked in medicine. However, when cartilage incense comes into contact with copper objects, another poisonous poison will be produced immediately. Anyone who directly contacts these two things will die without illness within a month. None of the national experts can detect the cause of death of the deceased."

Nanny Liao and Yang Mei's faces turned green with fright, they shouted in a panic: "Girl, what should I do?"

Du Heng said solemnly: "If I didn't know, our three lives would have been ruined in vain, but now that I know, this poisonous plan will never succeed. Sister, Yang Mei, you don't have to be afraid. I have my own way to deal with it."

Nanny Liao and Yang Mei believed in their daughter unconditionally. When Du Heng said this, they believed it [-]% and their expressions gradually softened a lot.

Mammy Liao, who was a little relaxed, thought of one thing, she said suspiciously: "Girl, this old slave sees that this is not an ordinary secret method in the inner house, and there is something weird about it."

Du Heng nodded and said solemnly: "Well, there must be a very poisonous person around that woman, who knows that the touch of cartilage incense and copper utensils will cause soul-stirring, and that person may have some connections with the grandparents' family."

Du Heng's great-grandfather is the Miao King of Shangdong, who is unique in the world by using poison.He had a son and a daughter, and the daughter married a Han scholar.Therefore, Du Heng's biological mother is half of Shangdong Miao blood.Before Du Heng's biological mother passed away, she handed over the poison scriptures left by her mother to her daughter. This is how Du Heng learned his poison skills.Due to the lack of various necessary conditions, Du Heng studied with great difficulty for seven full years with the help of Nanny Liao and Yang Mei before he achieved some success.Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to quickly tell what kind of poison the two horses were poisoned with.

"What, there are people like this in the mansion, girl, what can I do, it's too dangerous..." As soon as Madam Liao heard that there were poison masters in the mansion, she immediately became nervous. It's a reliance, but the mansion is still good at using poison, the girl's advantage is nothing, how will the girl's life be in the future!

"Miss, you should find a way to leave the General's Mansion! Madam is determined to harm you, and you will not be able to hide for a while." Yang Mei, who hadn't spoken for a while, suddenly said timidly.

After hearing Meimei's words, Nanny Liao immediately said to Du Heng: "Girl, what Yang Mei said makes sense. Today, the step-wife sent poisonous clothing and jewelry. You don't have to wear them. Then the step-wife will definitely use other means to harm you." You, there are only those who can be thieves for a thousand days, but not those who can guard against thieves for a thousand days. Now that the stepwife is in charge of the house, we can't guard against it even if we don't eat or sleep. The old slave served the old lady and his wife to go to the cave when I was young. In Miao Village, this old slave still vaguely remembers how to get there, why don't you go and join your great-grandfather?"

Du Heng shook his head lightly, and said in a low voice: "If my close relatives can't tolerate me, how can I count on my grandpa who is so far away? Even my grandpa and grandma are gone. I'm afraid my grandpa has passed away long ago. Madam , I understand what you and Yangmei are thinking, but it's impossible to go to Shangdong Miao Village, it's too far away..."

Shangdong Miao Village is at least a thousand miles away from Fengying, the capital of Daliang. Sister Yangmei and the three had no way of getting the customs clearance document issued by the Daliang household department.
