Chapter 136: A Difficult Beginning (2)
In Tangdi Courtyard, Mammy Jiang heard that Du Zhong died of poisoning, and Xi Yuxuan's bayberry gave him a pill, and he came back to life, and even paid the monthly money.Mother Jiang was extremely shocked. The Mangshan Ironhead Snake was extremely poisonous, let alone Du Zhong, an old man with his neck buried in the loess, even a young and middle-aged man would have no reason to survive the poison.Mother Jiang became more jealous of Du Heng and others in Xiyuxuan, and wanted to get rid of them immediately.Even if it's not for her wife, Mother Jiang doesn't have to let Du Heng and the others go, she absolutely can't let those people reveal the past that she couldn't see.

"Understood, this time I just taught that old dog Du Zhong a lesson, and I didn't intend to poison him immediately." In front of the dog's leg, Jiang Nanny had to pretend that everything was under control, and said it very easily , as if she had originally arranged it like this.

Those two nuns had been tamed by Nanny Jiang a long time ago, so naturally they would listen to what Madam Jiang said, and Nanny Jiang rewarded each with a silver ingot of plum blossoms, and the two nuns left Tangdi Courtyard contentedly.

After dismissing the two nurses, Mother Jiang was about to go to the room when she met Lamei, the daughter of the third girl's nanny in the yard, who is now a second-class maid beside the third girl.Seeing Mammy Jiang, Lamei immediately stepped forward and said in a low voice, "Mammy, Housekeeper Du entered Xiyuxuan, and it took three quarters of an hour to come out."

Mother Jiang nodded, waved her hand and said, "Understood, don't talk about things like this, and go back to the third girl." Lamei responded in a low voice, and quickly left Tangdi Courtyard.

"Nurse, what are you doing standing in the yard, Madam is looking for you..." A crisp voice came into Nurse Jiang's ears, and she immediately responded, "Got it, come here."

After entering the upper room, Mrs. Su hurriedly asked: "Mother, is that old dog dead? Why hasn't there been any movement?" The big butler, Du Zhong, gave the servants of the whole family a savage blow, telling them to keep their eyes open, and don't think that everything will go smoothly if they take refuge in the eldest girl.Du Zhong is a member of the eldest girl's family, and everyone in the entire Jianwei General's Mansion knows about this.

Mother Jiang shook her head and said bitterly, "Ma'am, the plan failed. The old dog was poisoned but survived."

"How is this possible? Didn't you say that the poison can kill a cow immediately? How can it not kill a shriveled old man?" Madam Su immediately cried out anxiously.Ever since she sent her ugly daughter away, Mrs. Su has become moody. She is less happy and more angry. Any little thing can make her lose her temper. Now the servants in Tangdi Courtyard are all in danger , I don't know when I will be severely punished by my wife.

"Madam, please calm down. This old servant still has another plan. That old dog will become a dead dog sooner or later." Mother Jiang hurriedly used words to stabilize her wife, and then gave her a cup of smooth Sishen tea. Madam took a deep breath, feeling that the anger in her heart had subsided a little.

"I don't care what you do, anyway, the old dog is not allowed to live this month, and the old bitch, if she doesn't return Peng'er, get rid of her, and the little bitch, she deserves to die! They Damn it all!" Mrs. Su became more and more crazy as she spoke, her eyes were bewildered and crazy, and she looked extremely frightening.

Seeing that the child she raised with one hand turned out like this, Madam Jiang stepped forward to embrace Mrs. Su and cried, "Madam, don't be like this, I will get you whatever you want, hurry up!" Change back..."

Mrs. Su pushed Nanny Jiang away violently, stared at her with straight eyes, and suddenly said sullenly: "I want ugly, you give me back..." Chou is when Mrs. Su is in a state of confusion. The name she gave her little daughter, she would never admit it when she was sane, and she would only call it out when she was confused.

Madam Jiang rushed forward and hugged Mrs. Su tightly in her arms, patting her on the back lightly while coaxing her, "Okay, I'll bring Chou'er back..."

"Go and pick it up now..." Madam Su's eyes gradually faded, and her voice lowered.Mother Jiang hurriedly said: "Okay, I'll take it now..." After finishing speaking, she patted Mrs. Su's back skillfully a few times, and Mrs. Su's voice became softer and she gradually fell asleep.

Mother Jiang gently placed Mrs. Su on the concubine's couch beside her, covered her with a quilt, and after looking at it for a long time, she gritted her teeth and said, "Ma'am, don't worry, this old servant will put this life to death, and I will help you with this." Take back the General's Mansion."

Not to mention how Nanny Jiang planned to take the General's Mansion into the hands of his wife, and in Xiyuxuan, Du Heng was giving orders to Nanny Li.Du Zhong's poisoning made Du Heng feel that danger was approaching her, and she had to find a way to counterattack, otherwise she and the people around her would not even be able to save their lives.

"Mommy, seal the copper bowl with yellow clay, put it in the stove and bake it on low heat for three days, and send it with the clay seal after it's burnt. Remember to wear oilcloth gloves when you take out the copper bowl. Don't touch it directly with your hands." Du Heng said seriously.

Momo Liao immediately responded without even asking: "Yes, Miss, I will deal with this old servant."

Du Heng said again: "Nurse Li, you should go out of the house immediately and go to another pharmacy to buy a few medicinal herbs separately. The more scattered the better."

Li Nanny should claim that it was, and Du Heng took a pen to write down the medicine list. Li Nanny thought for a while and asked: "Girl, is there any rush for these medicines? If not, the servants may simply run away to buy them."

Du Heng nodded and said, "It will be done within three days."

Nanny Li immediately bent her knees and replied: "Go back to the girl, my servant's relatives in the country are sick, and this servant wants to ask for three days' leave to go out of the city to visit relatives."

Du Heng saw that Nanny Li was clear at one point, nodded in satisfaction and said, "You can't go empty-handed when you go to visit relatives, Mammy, give 50 taels of silver to Nanny Li to bring it."

Although Nanny Liao didn't quite understand that this place was all her own people, why did Nanny Li insist on making such a fuss, but she was always a girl, so she went into the room immediately and opened the box to take out four ten taels of silver. Tickets, took another ten liang of scattered silver, wrapped them in a small bag and handed them to Madam Li.Nanny Li didn't delay, went back to her room and changed the clothes she was going out with, handed over the leave note to the housekeeper Du Zhong, and left the Jianwei General's mansion with the money.

During these three days, Du Heng raised Xi Yuxuan's defense to the highest level. Everyone who was close to him prepared antidote pills, used silver bowls and chopsticks for eating and drinking, and did not even go to the big kitchen for ingredients. After receiving it, Du Zhong arranged for Gouzi to go outside every day to buy the freshest vegetables, fish, meat, etc., which were completely out of the hands of others, and Gouzi directly handed it to Mammy Liao.
