Medical Brocade

Chapter 4 Doubt

"Madam, miss, it's not good, something happened, something serious happened."

There was a hasty knock on the door, accompanied by anxious shouts, as if the sky was about to fall.

Qu Ruowen was lying on the side of the bed, guarding Lan Linglong, her mother, worried that Lan Linglong's body temperature would rise at night, and tested it several times, until it was almost dawn, she was sure that the fever had subsided , she was finally able to close her eyes and sleep peacefully for a while, then she was woken up.

His head was a little heavy, and his temples were throbbing on both sides. Because he slept on his stomach, his whole body felt uncomfortable.

After hesitating for a few seconds and realizing where she was, she realized that it should be related to what happened last night, so she got up and went to open the door.

The door just opened a crack, and the person outside rushed in, but luckily Qu Ruowen was quick and didn't get hit.

The one who came in was a maid wearing green clothes, with a burden on her shoulders, her face was rather thin, and she looked a little dusty, this person seemed to be called Chun Shao, she was considered as the second-class maid of the Qu family.

The maidservants of the Qu family are divided into three classes. The first class maids wear pink clothes and are responsible for serving the old lady, the master, the eldest wife, and the young masters and young ladies of the Qu family. The second class maids wear green clothes and are responsible for serving the concubine and the young masters. Miss He, or also serve the old lady of the Qu family, the master, the eldest lady, and the young master and young lady who are born in the same family, but they are not personal servants. The third-class maids wear yellow clothes and are responsible for the daily life of the mansion, such as gardening flowers, sweeping laundry, shopping for vegetables, and cooking. Life.

Only Chun Shao was an exception. She was originally the maid in charge of sweeping the Linglong courtyard. Lan Linglong had favored her at the beginning, but unfortunately she was left out in the cold in the end. The second and third class maids in Linglong courtyard, except Chun Shao and After Lin Ma left, Chun Shao served Lan Linglong and her daily meals and became a second-class maid. As for Lin Ma, she was still in charge of sweeping the floor and doing laundry.

As the new year was approaching, Lan Linglong specially asked Chun Shao and Lin Ma to go back to see their relatives for a day, so no one noticed that she had a fever.

Seeing Chun Shao's slightly exaggerated expression, Qu Ruo asked with a smile, and then asked: "Chun Shao, what happened?"

"As soon as the slave girl came back, I heard that two servants died in the mansion, that is, Luo An who bullied the maid, and Bao Fu, I heard..." Chun Shao paid attention to the door, but didn't see anyone, and then Quietly asked Qu Ruo, "I was still killed by the flower pickers."

"Dead? The flower picker?" Qu Ruo asked with a look of astonishment. She knew better than anyone that those two people couldn't die. They just used something like a drug and fell asleep for a few hours at most.Moreover, the two of them didn't have any scars caused by blunt objects, so how could a flower picker be involved all of a sudden?
"That's right, they all said that last night the flower picker tied up the second lady. He wanted to do something wrong in the medicine garden, but was discovered by Luo An and Bao Fu. When they chased the flower picker, they lost to the flower picker and were killed. , the current flower pickers are really getting more and more rampant." Chun Shao felt scared when he thought about it, this happened in the mansion like this, and the Qu family, one of the five great imperial merchants, can let the flower pickers in, it is really shocking People were afraid, so she had to tell Qu Ruowen word by word, "Miss, you must be careful in the future, don't go out at night, even in the mansion, it's not safe."

With her current appearance, the flower pickers would definitely ignore her, but she was too lazy to explain anything to Chun Shao, this matter is still a bit strange, it will never be that simple, who killed Luo An and Bao Fu?

"Chun Shao, are you back?" Lan Linglong woke up when she heard Chun Shao's chattering voice on the bed.

Qu Ruowen heard the sound, walked back to the bed and sat down: "Mother, you woke up, how do you feel?"

"Ma'am, what's wrong with you?" Chun Shao went back to visit her relatives, not knowing what happened here, the person in this body had already been changed, and Lan Linglong was in a coma, so she didn't even know.

"It was hard yesterday, but it's much better now." Lan Linglong regained some of her complexion, and her complexion looked much better. At first glance, she is a beauty. Her body is slender, soft and weak, and her gestures are gentle. , is the kind of person who makes people feel pity when they are sad, and who is happy when they are happy.

"Ma'am, can you go to the main hall now? On the way back from the maidservant, the eldest lady and the second lady passed by." Chun Shao began to feel a little worried.

"Go to the main hall? Did something happen in the mansion?" Lan Linglong just woke up, and didn't hear much of the conversation between Qu Ruowen and Chun Shao, so Qu Ruowen asked Chun Shao to repeat what she just said.

"What, what else is there?" Lan Linglong hurriedly got up when she heard this, "Why didn't you tell me earlier, Chun Shao, bring me some clothes and put them on for me."

"Mother, you had a severe fever last night, and your health is still not fully healed. If you go out now, if you catch a cold again, infection..." Every time Qu Ruowen said a word, not only did Lan Linglong look at her with strange eyes, Even Chun Shao, she suddenly realized and shut up immediately, Qu Ruowen in their eyes, although she has some research on herbal medicine, she will never stop her parents from doing anything, she can only accompany her docilely to do anything, she lowered her head in frustration , compromised, "Mother, my daughter will accompany you to the main hall."

"Qianer, mother knows that you are doing it for mother, but your aunt and second mother have both gone, so mother has to go. Our mother and I have no status in the first place. If we don't even meet the etiquette, we will be more honest." Lan Linglong said a lot of reasoning, which was not what Qu Ruowen wanted to hear, but it was the truth, at least for now.

Knowing that Lan Linglong insisted on going for her own good, Qu Ruowen could only appreciate it: "Mother, let's go, if you don't go, it will be too late."

Supported by Qu Ruowen, Lan Linglong left the Linglong courtyard and walked towards the main hall. On the way, many servants and maidservants also ran in the direction of the main hall. When they met them, they didn't salute very much, even if they saluted, Also very reluctantly.

Qu Ruowen should just ignore it, but also understand that it is human nature to seek shelter from a big tree.

The Linglong Courtyard was a little far away from the main hall, and the three arrived in a hurry. At this time, there were many people around the main hall, all of them were servants and maidservants. They must have heard the news, but they were all blocked outside.

After Chun Shao accompanied Lan Linglong and Qu Ruowen to arrive, they could only stay outside, and the two could only go in by themselves.

There were already many people standing inside, all of whom were key figures of the Qu family. Qu Ruo asked the memories in his mind, and all of them came in one by one.

After entering the main hall, Qu Ruowen lowered his head and did not exchange eyes with anyone.But from the corner of her eye, she was paying attention to the surrounding situation.

On the floor of the main hall, there were two people lying there, the two people she killed, but what was a little strange was that the faces of these two people were turned sideways, as if their necks were broken, unlike when she left yesterday .
