marry a noble wife

Chapter 189 Poisoning Incident (11)
As for transporting medicinal materials into the mansion, fortunately Mrs. Xiao was too busy recently to take care of it, so she took advantage of the loophole and moved a lot of medicinal materials needed into the secret room.

But the other news passed by shopkeeper Ji made her pay attention. The medicines like Huoxiang and fennel that he said before are really out of stock. What can these medicines do?She thought about it at the time, as long as shopkeeper Ji continued to operate as usual, she would definitely find a way to make up for the lack of medicine.

Since she already had a little money back, this year, she didn't feel too tight.So he felt relieved, and asked Fu Yu casually, "Sir, have you returned the 3000 taels to elder brother?"

At that time, Fu Yu was playing with a sachet in his hand. He took out the 3000 taels of silver note from his pocket, squinted his eyes, touched Jiuya's head and said, "It's not too late, but it's good, you're quite interesting. If you know, return the money to others immediately. In the future, if you need money again, you can come to me directly... come to borrow it, and give me an IOU, and I promise to respond to every request."

Jiuya laughed dryly, it's worth not mentioning this matter.Suddenly he had an idea: "Master, do you think that if women go out to do business, will they be better than men in business?"

Fu Yu frowned, and turned his head to look her up and down, "What's the matter? You want to go out to do business?"

Jiuya hurriedly waved her hands, "No, I'm just asking casually to see what you think."

Fu Yu snorted twice, "Women's business is serious. It's serious to keep their husbands and children at home. It's better than a man's business. Don't even think about this kind of thinking."

Jiuya rubbed her forehead in shame, she knew it was like this, luckily she didn't tell him before, otherwise, maybe he would have closed her pharmacy already, typical male chauvinism.

"Where did you get this sachet?" Fu Yu asked casually, holding the sachet in his hand.

Jiuya replied dully: "Xiucai said that you lost it that day, but she picked it up."

Fu Yu smiled suddenly, "That's right, lady, you can completely trust this girl, and don't worry that she will stab you in the back."

Jiuya couldn't understand what she heard, why did it suddenly involve Xiucai again.

It was New Year's Eve, and after the family had eaten and offered sacrifices to their ancestors, Aunt Xiao returned to her Fenglin Courtyard.At this moment, there were already two or three people sitting in her yard, they were Wen Caihe's mother and two younger sisters.

Wen Caihe's family is actually a large merchant in the capital, with business both inside and outside the capital, but the whole family has been doing business for a living for five generations, and no one has ever been an official, so they are just ordinary merchants with money but no power.In this era where power is more important than business, there is no talk of social status at all, and they are overjoyed to be able to visit the Anping Marquis Mansion. How did they know that such a thing would happen to Wen Caihe?

As soon as Mrs. Wen saw Xiao, she cried: "Mother-in-law, He'er is in the cell right now, not to mention we have no face, even the Houfu has no face, please rescue He no matter what..."

Aunt Xiao asked someone to serve tea to them, and she sighed with a haggard face: "I didn't intend to rescue her, but many people saw the scene at that time. Even if I can seal the servant's mouth, but... ...Well, Lord Hou has seen it with his own eyes, and he is a person who can't rub the sand in his eyes, so he won't let go."

Mrs. Wen wiped her tears and said: "Mother-in-law, we know that you have the best solution, why don't you ask the yamen to take care of it, let them accommodate and release my He'er?"

"Where is there no relationship? The people in the yamen are easy to talk about, but it's just that the Marquis here doesn't make sense. He identified He'er, and now if he is asked to talk back, he will definitely not respond."

Mrs. Wen burst into tears again, "Everyone in this yamen has to take care of everything, and they need money for relationships. If you want money, just ask. But this Lord is his daughter-in-law anyway, so why can't he just let her go?" ?”

Aunt Xiao shook her head, "Money is a small matter, but there is nothing I can do about it. Chang Ting has been kneeling in the snow for two days and two nights, begging his father to forgive him, but now the people over there are very anxious. I fainted from the cold, but Lord Hou still ignored me..."

When she said this, tears also flowed out. It was the flesh that fell from her body, so how could she not feel distressed?Chang Ting has a deep affection for Wen Caihe. During the years of marriage, Wen Caihe has never had anything.Aren't you wholeheartedly devoted to her?Like his father, he is an infatuated species.

Mrs. Wen was also moved when she heard it, "We know that our son-in-law has done his best for us He'er, but it's no way to resist like this, so we can't think of a different way? Could it be that He'er will be imprisoned, and he will be tortured until he collapses ? Why didn't his mother-in-law persuade him?"

"It's useless, and he's stubborn. His father probably won't agree. He'll just kneel there all his life." Aunt Xiao wept.

"Why don't Auntie ask my eldest cousin to persuade you again?" At this time, a girl of sixteen or seventeen years old in a knee-length purple jacket came in from outside. She had bright eyes and white teeth, and fair skin. Very refreshing, it is Xiao Ruoqin, Aunt Xiao's niece.

She sat next to Aunt Xiao, and Aunt Xiao held her hand and said, "Last time, Lord Marquis made an exception to allow Mrs. Yang to enter the ancestral hall. How could she allow her this time? She is a healthy person, how can she Asking her to kneel in the snow for a whole day? How could the people in the Prince's Mansion allow her to act like this?"

"Oh, so that's the case. Then...let third cousin ask for it. Although Lord Hou doesn't seem to like him on weekdays, I can tell that he still loves third cousin." Xiao Ruoqin's whole body went up when he mentioned Fu Yu. Everyone lights up.

Aunt Xiao's face froze, if that thing would help plead for Wen Caihe to come out, she would give him her head.Originally, Wen Caihe went there just to watch the fun, but after the accident, it was good for him to lose his temper because he didn't see the affection. Now if he still provokes him, wouldn't it be sent to his door to humiliate him?

She shook her head and sighed, but Xiao Ruoqin smiled slightly, the third cousin was not such a heartless person, she turned to look for him.It's just that she didn't say it out, and the few people in the room could only sit in the room and figure out how to do it.In the end, they couldn't do anything, and in the end they had no choice but to go to Yilanju together, hoping to persuade Fu Changting to come back.

In the Lanyue residence of the third lady, brother Xuan was still lying on the bed, the third lady sat by the bed and touched his hands, Xueqing and Rumeng hugged a hand warmer and sat on the side.
