medicine lady

Chapter 92
Qiaoyun's mind has become more active these days, and she has understood her arrangement after hearing what Ye Yunshui said.

"Will you be suspicious?"

Ye Yunshui said with a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "As the old saying goes: If you are in a hurry, you will retreat. There is no need to invite these people specially. On the contrary, it will make them think that you have a ghost in your heart. Didn't the big maid of the Shen family come to find Huamei?" Ask me how it looks like? When Huamei went to answer the conversation, she said casually, just say that our yard is celebrating by itself, so that everyone will know if you yell like this, can you not let others come when you are in a hurry? No matter how hard Huamei is, the dead concubine It seems that we have not lost our etiquette when we invite you in the house."

"But Master Shi's ban has not been withdrawn yet!" Qiao Lian interjected from the side, although she was worried, she could still see the excitement in her eyes.

Thrush pointed her head and scolded: "You're the only one who is stupid, the Shizi didn't let Master Ye go out, and he didn't let us go out!"

Ye Yunshui sneered inwardly, and asked Huamei to hurry away with the embroidery pattern, and then ordered Hua'er to bring a dowry box to Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian to choose two suitable decorations, "... since it is a birthday, That's enough! Ask Du Juan to go to the kitchen to say hello, and say that I just found out about Qiaoyun's and Qiaolian's birthdays, and I just got rewarded with silver, so I asked you to choose the ones you want to make. Qing He called me!"

Qiaoyun went out to call Qinghe, Ye Yunshui ordered: "Go to the big kitchen and tell your mother that Qiaoyun and Qiaolian are celebrating their birthday today, and we have a banquet in the yard..."

Qinghe is smart, she knows what to do without Ye Yunshui's words, and said with a promise: "Your servant will save me, and I will definitely not mess up Master Ye's affairs!"

Mo Lan and Mo Yun helped the inside and outside, and the "Shuiqing Garden", which was a bit deserted, became lively all of a sudden. The little maids and women all knew that today was Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian's birthday. They are all extremely agile, and there is no lack of some active errands who take the initiative to run errands... As for whether they rushed to other yards to report the news, it is not known.

Not long after, seven or eight small sedan chairs entered the "Shuiqing Garden" one after another, and were carried directly into the main courtyard. All the maids from various courtyards, even the jade fan in front of Mrs. Liu, followed coming.

Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian are the rightful masters, taking on the task of welcoming the maids of each courtyard.

Two of the four big maids in front of Liu Jiaoyue came, Chun Tao, Chun Xing, and one of the four concubines served each.

After such a short period of time, two tables of good noodles were set up in Dongci's room, and there was no shortage of chicken, duck and fish, which was comparable to the New Year's meals of rich families.Huamei beckoned everyone to come in and sit down, but Yushan was considerate, and hurriedly said: "The servants have not greeted Master Ye when they came, this is against the rules."

Hearing what Yushan said, Chuntao also agreed, "Yes, we have to greet Master Ye first before we play. It's okay to break the rules and make Master annoy us."

The other big maids were all looking at Huamei, didn't everyone come here just to look at Ye Yunshui?The birthdays of Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian are just a cover.

Hua Mei didn't evade, she stepped forward with a smile and said, "Thank you, all the girls miss our Master Ye, so I'll go and answer our Master right now."

While talking, Huamei turned around and entered Ye Yunshui's room, but saw Ye Yunshui lying on the bed, accompanied by Mama Su, Huamei and Mama Su smiled and nodded at each other, and she tiptoed back out again, hissing: "Master Ye has been very sleepy recently, and now he's lying on the bed again. Why don't the girls sit in the east room first, and when Master Ye wakes up, ask all the girls to say hello."

When Huamei said this, the suspicious look on Yushan's face flashed, and Chuntao and Chunxing looked at each other, as if confirming the rumor that Ye Yunshui was pregnant.

Xuan'er, who was serving in front of Mrs. Shen, stepped forward and said: "It's not a coincidence, the sisters can only go to the east room to do it first, and then I will make up for Master Ye's request. I just heard Qiaoyun, Qiao Sister Lian didn't have time to prepare for her birthday, so a little gift is not a respect!" Xuan'er took out two brocade boxes, each containing a silver hairpin, and gave them to Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian.

Seeing this, other people also sent congratulatory gifts one after another. Although they took the opportunity to inquire about Ye Yunshui's affairs, they had to do their best to save face.

Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian were also not polite, accepted the gift and thanked them one by one, and let everyone into Dongci room.

After evading for a long time, the primary and secondary seats were divided, and Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian sat on the main seat, then Chun Xing and Chun Tao, the eldest maids of the imperial concubine, then Thrush and Hua'er, and then The four concubines served her personally.

Huamei took the wine, "Today is a good day, let's all have something to cheer up!"

A few people didn't shirk, Qing He and Du Juan were serving wine, talking and making a fuss, but they talked about the girls' family's most concerned clothing, beauty prescriptions and so on. The room was full of big maids, There are little maids serving in the next one, and there are very decent servants in the mansion, so it is not uncommon to talk about such topics.

Everyone spoke and said, but the atmosphere became warmer. Huamei was the oldest among these people. When the atmosphere became cold, she could always find a topic to pick up. Hua'er echoed, but Qiaoyun and Qiaolian The sisters seemed cautious, the two of them were not as quick-witted as Huamei and Hua'er, and they were just responding to other people's topics for fear of making too many mistakes.

Just in the middle of the meal, there was a little maid at the door who came back to report, "Go back to girls, the girls from 'Fengyaju' and 'Qiusiju' are here to give birthday presents to Miss Qiaoyun and Qiaolian!"

Qiaoyun and Qiaolian were taken aback for a moment, but Huamei was the first to react, and gave them a look, Qiaoyun showed a look of suspicion and embarrassment on his face: "Why did you disturb the other yard? It really flattered the sisters, Now that you’re here, please come in quickly, shall we?”

Qiao Lian looked at all the people present, and they all agreed.

Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian went out to greet each other, the big maids who were sitting exchanged their eyes and went out to meet them, Hong Ying from Wei Shi and Ao Mei from Ding Shi came.

Everyone greeted each other first, and Hong Ying stepped forward and said: "I heard about the birthdays of the two girls today, so I came here uninvited to have a good time. I always want to get closer to you in the next day. But there are so many things in the yard!"

Qiaoyun stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss Lao Hongying is worried, but it's our sister's fault!" It's like being able to see through people's hearts.

"Is Master Ye here? Let's go and invite An before coming here?" Ao Mei interjected. Ao Mei was thin and often looked at Hong Ying when she was talking. Obviously, Hong Ying was the leader of the two.

Hua'er stepped forward and said: "You two girls sit down first, Master Ye has just rested, it's inconvenient right now, after Master Ye wakes up, I will invite the girls to say hello."

Seeing the different expressions on the faces of the people, Hongying had no choice but to respond. With the addition of these two ladies serving in the room, everyone arranged their seats again. It is said that the maids serving in front of the concubines would have to be alone. After opening a table, Chuntao said, "We're all sisters, no matter how high or low, let's have fun today!"

Seeing that Chuntao had said this, everyone had no objection, and just sat down and continued to talk, but with the addition of Hong Ying and Ao Mei, everyone's conversations became a little more cautious, and after staying in the mansion for a while All the slaves and servants in Japan knew that Liu Jiaoyue did not get along with the eldest lady, and even getting along with the servants and servants would inevitably be a bit tit-for-tat.

"I've heard that 'Shuiqingyuan' is very lenient towards slaves and maidservants. I just realized that Master Ye treats you like a treasure..." Hongying said with a smile, but the meaning behind the words But it's a bit intriguing.

"Master Ye is sympathetic to the servants. This is the blessing of the servants, but it is not as good as Miss Hongying. She is a director with the eldest lady in the next day, and she has a lot of knowledge. She is even better than ordinary ladies!" Huamei changed the topic to Hongying. On Ying, Chuntao also interjected at this time, "Sisters are all envious, Miss Hongying, don't be modest, I heard that the eldest lady intends to promise you to the housekeeper Zhou? Congratulations to the girl in advance!"

As soon as Chuntao said this, the faces of the people at the table were all different, even Aomei, Ding's eldest maid, took a second look at Hongying, obviously even she didn't know the news.

Hongying immediately said anxiously: "There is no need to talk nonsense, there is nothing at all, how can I hear gossip!"

"No?" Chuntao stretched the word "Ya" at the end, "It's my sister's fault! I'll make an apology to you, but it was mentioned last time by the nurse in charge of our 'Wutong Garden', who said it was a relative. Miss Hongying wanted to beg for her as a daughter-in-law, but it was the nurse in charge of your yard who stopped her, saying that the eldest lady already had a candidate in her mind, so let us nurse not to eat that first place!"

Hongying's face was a little embarrassed, most people here knew that Hongying's heart was on the old man, so how could she not be embarrassed?
Some people pretended to cover their mouths and sniggered, while others watched from the sidelines. Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit tense, Huamei hurriedly invited everyone to have a drink, and the topic was delayed for the time being.

But even though it was a small episode, it revealed a lot of news. The people sitting at this table were all Linglong people in front of the masters of the yards, and they all blocked this topic secretly.

At this time, someone at the door opened the curtain and came in, but it was Mo Lan who sang at the door, "Master Ye is here!"

Everyone put down their chopsticks and wanted to stand up to greet them, but at this moment Ye Yunshui had already entered, wearing a long jacket with fox sleeves and a collar and a purple gold silk embroidered lettering, a plum blossom bun on his hair, three steps away with gilt and emerald emeralds, his face A little makeup was applied, but the fatigue could not be concealed.

Everyone believed in their hearts that Ye Yunshui was really ill, and that her dress was just to cover up her dejected look.

Ye Yunshui looked at everyone's eyes, but he sneered secretly in his heart, and greeted with a smile on his face, "Sit down, everyone, come and have a look when you see the excitement here, today is sisters Qiaoyun and Qiaolian. On a good day, you don't have to hold back, just play to your heart's content."

All the maids greeted Ye Yunshui, and Hongying said: "Seeing that Master Ye looks good, our eldest lady is still thinking about coming to see you, but I am afraid that you will be inconvenient..."

"Where are there so many courtesies?" Ye Yunshui just rounded up the words, but didn't say whether he would accept the favor, but Chun Tao and Chun Xing kept looking at Ye Yunshui.

Ye Yunshui didn't say much, and ordered the maids to pass the dishes to the table, and said: "This is the special rice of Doluo Kingdom sent by the previous concubine. It is said to be more fragrant than our rice, and the lady sent it The bird’s nests that came here are too much, so I’ll bring you a cup for each of you, and everyone will try it.”

Ye Yunshui smiled and enjoyed the food, but when she turned around, the faces of the maids all changed...

They are all people in front of the master, who doesn't know who's private matters?Maybe some of these things are still handled by these people here!

Who doesn't know that rice is soaked with comfrey?Who doesn't know that the bird's nest is mixed with cold medicine?But who dares to speak out at this time?

The faces of Chun Xing and Chun Tao were ugly, while Hong Ying and Ao Mei also showed more anxiety, but the maids of the other four concubines stood aside and looked at them, as if they knew that it was not that simple , without saying a word, just watching what these four people do before making plans.

Ye Yunshui looked at these four people with cold eyes but with a smile on his face. Looking at their expressions, he knew that this matter could not escape their hands. Since they came here on their own initiative, it is no wonder that Ye Yunshui was so cruel!

This thing was rewarded by the master, and if he shirks it tightly, it will definitely arouse Ye Yunshui's suspicion. If he really eats it, no one wants to suffer this crime himself. Who is decent enough to spare this life?Besides, if something really happened after eating, it can still be traced back to the root cause!No matter how everyone escaped from this matter, once Ye Yunshui uncovered this fig leaf, their lives would be lost!This is not rewarding food, it is simply rewarding poison!It's just that they have to take the poison if they take it, or take it if they don't take it!

"Why? Don't you like the food in our yard?" Ye Yunshui put his face aside, "That's right, they are all the celebrities in front of the master, who is missing these two bowls of food!"

Seeing Ye Yunshui's displeasure, Chun Xing immediately stepped forward to bless Fushen, and then said: "Slaves and servants definitely didn't mean that, Master Ye is no wonder, it was just given to Master Ye by the concubine and the eldest lady, slaves How dare you act recklessly, the slaves and servants accept Master Ye's grace in their hearts!"

"Since it was given to me, it's okay for me to borrow flowers to present to the Buddha. If your master blames you, I will take care of it, and the servants celebrate their birthdays. If I, the master, don't express anything, wouldn't it be a joke to spread the word? But It’s just some rare items for everyone to taste. Which of the big maids in front of the masters next to you didn’t eat and dress well with the master? The princess will pick you for this reason? Let Miss Chunxing say it, it’s like your princess Treating you harshly?" Ye Yunshui's words were sharp and thorny, and there was no room for turning around.

Ye Yunshui's words have come to this point, how can Chun Xing, Chun Tao and others not know at this time that they jumped into the pit on their own initiative, waiting to be buried?It is said that curiosity kills people. Hearing Huamei say that Qiao Yun and Qiao Lian had a birthday banquet in the yard, they thought it was a good opportunity to find out the news, but they didn't realize that it was a trap. Now it's too late for them to regret it!
