After a generation of doctors

Chapter 48 Poison tricks, start small
Madam Yu looked at the familiar purse, her heart pounding, she looked around and found no one, so she put the purse in her arms, and went back as if nothing had happened.

At night, in the dead of night, Liu'er, who was in the same room, had already fallen asleep.

Lady Yu quietly got up from the bed, opened the green purse by the moonlight, and saw a silver ingot inside, and a small note with the words noon and plum garden.

Madam Yu knew that Aunt Liu must be looking for her, and she was considering whether to attend the appointment.

Those people who came to Xiyun Courtyard to serve them were all selected by Aunt Liu, with only one purpose, that is to 'serve' the young lady well.

Everyone else has done a good job, and Madam Yu herself has reaped a lot of benefits in private, but she is low-key and cautious in doing things, so there is no reason for her to fall into the hands of the young lady.

This time the eldest lady left her and Liu Er, she thought she would have a chance to help the eldest lady, but it was obvious that the eldest lady didn't take them seriously at all.

When Liu Er complained today, although she reprimanded Liu Er, she agreed with what Liu Er said in her heart.

Rather than suffering here, it would be better to be sold out.

Now that Aunt Liu is looking for her, it may be a way out.

Madam Yu looked at the silver ingot and decided to go to Meiyuan tomorrow to see what Aunt Liu had to say.

If she is satisfied with the conditions offered, then she doesn't mind betraying the eldest lady again.

At noon the next day, after Madam Yu finished her work, she held the broom and said to Liu Er: "I heard that Missy likes to go to the Plum Garden the most. Shall we clean it up so that Missy can like it."

"If you want to go, I won't go." Liu'er shook her head.

She was almost exhausted after working all day, and there was still such a long time before the plum garden bloomed, so it was useless to plan now, so she didn't waste that effort.

"Then I'll go by myself. You go back and help me get some boiling water. If you really please the eldest lady later, I'll say that you also have a role in sweeping." Madam Yu instructed.

"Okay, then you go." Liu'er waved her hand, compared to sweeping the garden, turning on the water is nothing worth mentioning.

Lady Yu quietly entered the plum garden with a broom and pretended to sweep it.

This plum garden is located in a remote place, and there are more than 100 red plums planted in it. Now the branches and leaves are withered, there is no beautiful scenery to see, and no one will come here.

Aunt Liu had been waiting in the depths of the plum garden for a long time, and when she saw the lady came in, she asked Cuiqiao to invite her over.

"My servant has seen Aunt Liu." Mrs. Yu bowed to Aunt Liu respectfully.

"Ms. Yu, it's been a while since I last saw you. Why are you so haggard? Could it be that Missy treats you badly?"

Aunt Liu Xiang pretended to be surprised and asked.

At this moment, the lady in charge is wearing the gray cloth clothes of a rough envoy, her hair is only tied up with a wooden fork, her hands and feet are covered with dust, it is indeed very different from the appearance of the lady in charge before.

"Aunt Liu, stop joking with your slaves." Madam Yu smiled wryly, and said, "Now Xiyun Courtyard is full of people from Zhang's family, so I don't have the status. Being able to sweep the floor and do rough work in the yard is already a favor from the eldest lady." .”

"That's not what you said. You and Liu'er didn't make any mistakes. I thought that the eldest lady kept you here to continue serving. I didn't expect you to do such rough and tiring work."

When Aunt Liu said this, she sighed quietly, and said sadly, "It's all my fault that I can't speak in front of your eldest lady, otherwise I must reason with her, how can I let you, the aunt in charge, do such a thing?" rough work."

"Thank you Aunt Liu for your concern, I am very grateful." Madam Yu blessed her body, but she knew very well in her heart that Aunt Liu's behavior was just to make her hate the eldest lady.

Mrs. Yu chatted with Aunt Liu again, and seeing her delay in explaining her purpose, she felt a little impatient, so she said, "It's been a while since I've come out, and there's still a lot of work to be done in the yard. If Aunt Liu didn't order , the servant will leave first."

"Miss Yu, don't be in a hurry. I came to you this time to help you get out of the sea of ​​suffering." Aunt Liu winked at Zhang's mother beside her.

Mother Zhang took out a purse, stuffed it into the lady's hand, and said hypocritically: "Aunt Liu loves you so much, take the money back to buy some food, and make up for your body. Look at how thin you have become."

Mrs. Yu pretended to decline, then accepted it, and weighed it in her hand, it was heavy, there must be at least three silver ingots.

Aunt Liu acted quite generously this time.

"Miss Yu, recently the young lady leaves early and returns late. She is always away from home and doesn't know what she is doing outside. I am really worried. You have been there for so long, but have you heard anything?" Aunt Liu Finally said the purpose of this trip.

"Returning to Aunt Liu, the slaves have been living outside the courtyard, and they can't even get close to the house. I really don't know what the eldest lady is busy with recently."

Mrs. Yu was telling the truth, Xiyun courtyard was full of servants of the Zhang family, even if she wanted to strike up a conversation, no one would talk to her, let alone ask for news.

Aunt Liu frowned slightly, feeling sorry for the three silver ingots she gave away.

Seeing Aunt Liu's complexion, Madam Yu also knew that she would not provide some useful information, so she would never try to get money from Aunt Liu in the future, so she said something she had suspected for a long time, "Although the servant girl doesn't know how big What is the young lady doing recently, but there was something before that, the maidservant always found it very strange."

"What's the matter?" Aunt Liu cheered up and asked.

"At that time, the eldest lady left me, Liu'er, and Xiaohui behind. The strange thing is, after the eldest lady asked Mother Qing and Gu Ling to interrogate Xiaohui, she sent her out overnight." Madam Yu said.

"This is a bit strange. Is there something weird about Xiaohui?"

Aunt Liu didn't have any impression of Xiaohui, she only knew that she was a second-class maid.

"Aunt Liu, Xiaohui lived in the same room with Xiaohuan when she was in Xiyun Courtyard. It is said that the two of them have a very close relationship and are like sisters." After Madam Yu finished speaking, she took a peek at Aunt Liu.

Xiaohuan?When Aunt Liu heard this name, her fingers trembled slightly.

Could it be that Xiaohuan's maid said something to Xiaohui before she died?
Aunt Liu made up her mind and thought to herself, probably not.

If Xiaohui really knew something, he would have used it to threaten her for benefits.

Moreover, there was no evidence for what he ordered Xiaohuan to do, even if Yuzishan suspected something, there was nothing she could do about it.

Aunt Liu calmed down, and told Madam Yu, "You should inquire about Xiaohui's affairs when you have time. You also know how Xiaohuan died. The eldest lady sent Xiaohui out alone, and you don't know where she is now. Death is life. I am worried that one day you and Liu'er will be quietly sent out, and even if I want to save you, I will have more than I can do."

"Your servant understands." Madam Yu nodded, she was also afraid that if Xiaohui really died, then she and Liu'er would end badly.

"You go back first, I will contact you later if there is something to do, be smart, don't let the eldest lady find out. You also know that she has a bad temper, maybe she will punish you." Aunt Liu instructed a few more words.

"Don't worry, Auntie, I know what to do." Madam Yu bowed again and left with the broom.

Seeing that the lady had left, Mother Zhang said worriedly: "Auntie, does Xiaohui really know what's going on?"

"Probably not, Xiaohuan has always been very tight-lipped, otherwise I wouldn't have chosen her for work." Aunt Liu said with a frown, and Xiaohui had already been sent away by Yuzishan, so it was too late for her to track down anything.

"Then what about your plan?" Mother Zhang asked again.

Aunt Liu originally planned to let Lady Yu go back and slowly spread rumors, saying that Yu Zishan was doing shameful things when she went out every day.

Now that the matter has not come, I let Mrs. Yu go, so those few silver ingots are wasted.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Yu is a smart person, don't ask her to help if she doesn't have enough benefits." Aunt Liu thought for a while and asked, "I remember Mrs. Yu has a younger brother who works outside?"

"Well, I heard that he was an apprentice at a carpenter's house. Mrs. Yu is just such a younger brother. He is very precious and often sends money to him." Zhang's mother is very clear about these gossip.

"You can arrange it. Starting with Yu Niangzi's younger brother, it's best to let him owe some money, so that you won't be afraid that Yu Niangzi won't help." A hint of vicious calculation flashed in Aunt Liu's beautiful eyes.

Although she is only an aunt of the Hou Mansion, it is still easy for her to deal with a small person outside.

"This old slave knows how to do it." Zhang's mother nodded. She has a nephew who is doing well on the street, so it should be no problem to ask him for help.

"Well, let's go back." Aunt Liu returned to her yard and found that Yu Zijiao had been waiting in the house for a long time.

"Mother, where have you been? Why did it take you so long to come back?" Yuzi asked delicately.

"I just went out for a stroll, but you, didn't you mean to play with Sister Qing, why did you come back so soon?" Aunt Liu asked evasively.

Sister Qing is a girl from the Liu family. Ever since Aunt Liu gained a firm foothold in the Hou Mansion, the members of the Liu family have also supported her, so the girls from the Liu family played well with Yu Zijiao.

Yu Zijiao's favorite thing is to dress beautifully and show off in front of these cousins.

"Don't talk about it, I was having a good time, but the talented cousin came over suddenly and said that he would come to our Yufu as a guest. When I saw him like that, I was annoyed, so I came back." Yu Zijiao thought of her cousin. It looks disgusting.

"Caihua wants to come over as a guest?" Aunt Liu frowned, and a thought suddenly came to her mind.

Liu Caihua is the eldest son of the Liu family, and also the most beloved grandnephew of the old lady.

Although her name is Liu Caihua, she is actually full of idiots and has a very arrogant and domineering personality.

He loves beauties the most in his life, and there are already a few housemaids in the house before he is engaged, if he is allowed to come to Yu's house...
