Daughter's Poisoned Wife

Chapter 44 The food is poisonous
Du Dahai's face darkened, and he said harshly: "Mother, what are you talking about in the new year, there is no ghost..."

Mrs. He rushed to Du Dahai's side at a speed that didn't match her age, held his hand tightly and shouted, "Dahai, there is a ghost, hit the ghost quickly..."

Du Dahai followed his mother's terrified eyes and saw the eldest daughter Du Heng who was inexplicably astonished. He supported Mrs. He's body and said calmly: "Mother, there are bright lights all around, how can there be ghosts? Those are your three granddaughters."

Mrs. He couldn't listen to her son's words at all, she just shook her head desperately and said, "No, there are ghosts, there are ghosts, Dahai, your wife is here to claim her life..."

Du Dahai's complexion sank, and he immediately stood up to block his mother's sight, and said in a deep voice: "The old lady was frightened just now, so I quickly sent the old lady back to the room to rest, and brought me a bowl of soothing soup." Li Nanny and others Hurry up and half help and half lift Mrs. He into the room for resettlement.

"Come here, take the eldest young master, the second girl and the third girl back to their rooms." Du Dahai issued another order to send all three children of Mrs. Su back to Tangdi Courtyard.

Du Heng saw that his father had not arranged for him alone, so he stood quietly and waited, while Madam Liao looked at the master and the girl worriedly, she was afraid that the father-daughter relationship that had just improved would be broken again.

"Ruo'er, your grandmother is old and weak, she is talking nonsense, don't take it to heart. Today... well, this year is not going well. You have been tired all day, go back and rest first Let's go back and ask someone to send dinner to Xiyuxuan for my father." Du Dahai explained to his daughter in a low voice, his voice was not as rough as before, Du Heng didn't know if he was careless, she seemed to hear from her father's tone There was a trace of guilty conscience.

After returning to Xiyuxuan, Du Heng even sent Yang Mei out, leaving only Nanny Liao alone, and asked in a low voice: "Mommy, the old lady just looked at me and kept calling me a ghost, guess what happened?" ?”

Momo Liao secretly groaned in her heart, she knew her daughter's temperament too well, if she told the truth, she might rush to the Summer Palace to kill the old lady, Mammy Liao knew that the girl she brought up with her own hands Have this ability.But if she didn't say it, she would feel sorry for the dead wife.Since giving birth to the girl, the wife's health has improved a lot, how could she suddenly vomit blood and die without warning.

"This... girl, you look very much like Madam, maybe the old Madam has bad eyesight due to her age, and she regarded you as the first Madam, that's why she cried out in shock." Momo Liao thought about it again and again, and then she half-revealed. Talked up.

"It's just like this, even if I am very mother-like, I won't frighten the old lady that much. Don't you think that the old lady's panic reveals a great guilt? Why is she so guilty?" Du Heng's voice was cold , pointing directly at the important point, forcing Mammy Liao to be overwhelmed.

"Girl, when my wife was alive, the old lady didn't like her, and she used to make things difficult for her. This old slave thought it was probably because of this that the old lady was frightened." Mammy Liao finally found a reason and said in a low voice. When she came out, she secretly prayed in her heart that the girl could believe in herself and stop being entangled in this matter.

Du Hengxiu frowned. Madam Liao's words sounded reasonable, but Du Heng always felt that it was more than that. She had seen it very clearly just now. The grandmother looked at him with extreme fear in his eyes, as if his life was impermanent .If it was just an ordinary feud between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, why was she so afraid of it?

Seeing that the girl hadn't spoken for a long time, Mammy Liao was about to say something to explain, when she heard Yang Mei's voice from outside: "Go back to the girl, the master ordered someone to bring dinner over."

After a whole night of tossing, Du Heng was already so hungry that her heart was on her back, and she immediately raised her voice, "Put it in."

Momo Liao immediately said: "This old slave is going to help make arrangements together."

After a while, Yang Mei walked in with eight maids carrying food boxes. Nanny Liao had already cleared the table, and the maids opened the food boxes one by one, and served sixteen main dishes, eight snacks and eight soups one by one. After setting it up, he bowed to Du Heng and stepped back. When Du Heng saw these 32 dishes, he couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. He just stood in front of the table and looked at it, and he didn't take a seat for a long time.

When Mother Liao saw this, she knew that the girl must have recalled the difficult days when even a teacup of brown rice porridge had to be divided into three parts. She hurriedly smiled and said, "Young lady must be hungry, please eat quickly." Yang Mei also nodded repeatedly He echoed: "Yes, girl, you must be tired and hungry after running all day today, please eat quickly."

Du Heng looked at Nanny Liao, then at Yangmei, and said softly: "Yangmei, go and close the door." Yangmei ran to the door and closed the door, and Du Heng said: "Mommy, Yangmei, come with me." I have suffered for seven years. At that time, I said to myself, if one day I, Du Heng, can live a good life, I will definitely let you enjoy happiness with me. Now my life is starting to get better, you guys It's the same, let's spend the new year together today, mother, Yangmei, the three of us will have this reunion dinner together."

Nanny Liao and Yang Mei waved their hands again and again and said, "You can't do it, girl, you can't mess with the rules."

Du Heng held Nanny Liao with one hand and Yangmei with the other, and said firmly: "Mommy, Yangmei, I can't say anything outside, but what I say in Xiyuxuan is the rule, sit down and eat with me. If I don’t eat, I won’t eat, anyway, it’s not like I’ve never been hungry, and I can still bear this point of starvation.”

Mammy Liao couldn't bear to let her girls go hungry, and after a day of running around, they were also tired and hungry, and they also wanted to fill their stomachs earlier so that they could have a rest.At this time, Du Heng said again: "What happened in Xiyuan in the past, now in Xiyuxuan, close that door, this is the West Garden."

Hearing what the girl said, Nanny Liao and Yang Mei didn't insist any longer, they saluted Du Heng, and then sat down with them, the master and servant were ready to share this feast.

After Du Heng sat down, he didn't move his chopsticks immediately, but took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, pulled out the cork and sprinkled a little white powder on each dish. On the ground, some immediately became invisible, and some aroused a few wisps of thin black smoke.

Nanny Liao and Yang Mei have been with Du Heng for a long time, so they naturally know what their girls are doing. They saw thin black smoke rising from all the dishes except the four vegetarian dishes and two soups. The expressions of the two of them changed drastically.Yang Mei angrily shouted in a low voice: "They are too vicious. If the girl hadn't been on guard, wouldn't she be... um..." Yang Mei covered her mouth before she finished speaking, and the rest of the words All were blocked back.
