Rebirth of the Abandoned Concubine: The Poison Goddess Doctor

Chapter 569 Arrive here, give the strange flower to the old lady?
On the third day after the auction, three other girls who were waiting to be drafted from Gongyi's family arrived together.

It was still Gongyi Kewen who went to receive them. Seeing these three sisters from the same clan, Gongyi Kewen felt relieved immediately.

One of these three people is as fat as a pig, and their facial features are all squeezed together. They must not even pass the first round of selection before being screened out.The second face was covered with freckles, even though she had applied a thick layer of makeup, she couldn't cover them all.The last one is a beauty, but unfortunately her personality is too timid and dull, she kept her head down and dared not look at people, asked her three words before she could reply in a soft voice, if you don't listen carefully, you don't know what she is talking about.

Gongyi Kewen arranged for them to stay first as usual. The fat man and the pockmarked man gave her a meeting gift very politely. The last idiot was so stupid that he didn't even understand the world. Gift for her.

Gongyi Kewen took them to see the old lady, thinking that the old lady would be happy, but the old lady's face was uglier than when she saw the two sisters Gongyi Keshuang, and she said directly in front of the three girls: "How did your elders raise you?" Yours, just like this, you are ashamed to participate in the selection, when the time comes, others will not know how to laugh at our Gongyi family!"

All three were embarrassed, and the timid one dropped golden beans immediately.It's not that they are embarrassed to participate in the selection, but that their names are all on the list, so how dare they not come.

"You are only allowed to eat one meal a day from now on, so lose weight quickly!" The old lady said to the fat man, "If you can't lose weight, call yourself sick and leave, so you won't be ashamed!"

The fat man nodded his head with red eyes, not daring to raise any objection.

The old lady glanced at the pockmarked eyes, and said: "You will change the makeup tomorrow, it will look like a white-faced ghost, and the things on the face can't be covered, what's the use!"

Mazi also lowered his head and dared not speak.

The old lady finally took a look at the third person who was still dropping golden beans, and frowned: "Forget it, just do what you want." If you are dull, you can be dull, outsiders say she is timid at most, and it is no big deal.

"You all go, stay in the yard if you have nothing to do, don't go out, let alone leave the house!" The old lady drove them away.

The three of them were relieved, and hurriedly bowed and left.

Fatty and the other two didn't know each other before, and they didn't have much to say, so they returned to their place after a few polite words.The latter two are cousins ​​who grew up together and asked to live together. Gongyi Kewen had no objection, so she arranged them in a larger yard.

As soon as the two of them closed the door, the expressions on their faces changed immediately.There was no trace of timidity and shyness on the stiff face, and a look of sarcasm on the beautiful face: "Sure enough, as grandma said, the Dong Guo family is really a vicious woman. Fortunately, we got the news early and knew The two sisters, Gongyi Keshuang, were tormented by her and deliberately disguised them, otherwise it would not be so easy to escape today!"

The other person took the handkerchief handed over by the maid, wiped off the powder and freckles on his face, revealed a delicate face, and said: "We have only passed the first level now, and we will live in the mansion for a while later." It’s been two months, so don’t expose yourself, otherwise Dong Guo’s discovery of the truth will definitely torture us more than dealing with Gongyi and Keshuang.”

"I know," said the glamorous woman, "Didn't Dongguo tell us to stay in the room and avoid going out? We will not go out in the future. After these two months, no matter whether we can be selected in the end, we will be able to do it." liberated."

"I hope I don't get selected," the delicate girl shook her head, "You have to be careful everywhere in the capital, even when you come to the Marquis Mansion of the same lineage, you have to be careful in disguising, lest you get into trouble, I really can't imagine living What will it be like to be here?"

The glamorous woman nodded with concern: "Then let's pretend to the end and let ourselves lose the election. Then we will go home together and live our own good life!"

The delicate girl laughed: "Well, let's go home together!"

The five girls to be drafted have all arrived, and the Gongyi Mansion held a banquet to welcome them that night. This time, unlike the small banquet, only the female family members participated. All present.

The second lady looked at the crowd, feeling sour in her heart, she couldn't help but said: "The whole family is here, only our Tianlin works outside, I don't know if we have suffered, and the little grandson has not seen for more than half a year. And Keshu, the life in the nunnery is miserable, and she is almost out of shape."

"Okay, when the family is happy, don't say these spoiling words." The second master also wanted his children and grandsons, especially his son, so that he could enjoy the blessings in the capital, and offered to take the post on his behalf in the capital. More than half a year has passed, and I haven't been able to come back once.But when I think about it, what's the use of mentioning it in front of everyone, at most two sympathetic looks?
"It's true that Keshu has lived in the nunnery for a long time," Qihou said, "The queen's anger is probably almost gone. Next time I have a chance, I will plead with the queen and let her come back."

They are all his granddaughters, and Qihou couldn't bear to watch Keshu suffer in the nunnery all the time.My body is getting worse every day, and before I die, I can't even see Keshu's face.

The second wife was overjoyed immediately: "Thank you, Lord Hou! With the words of Lord Hou, my daughter-in-law will feel at ease!"

The second master was also very happy, and said to the servant girl: "Pour the wine quickly, and I will toast the father!"

Qi Hou drank a glass of sake, took a few mouthfuls of food, and couldn't eat anymore.As soon as he stopped chopsticks, everyone had to stop, and Qi Hou simply didn't spoil everyone's interest here, and said: "Eat slowly, I'll go back first. Sit down, don't worry about me."

Qihou waved everyone to sit down, refused everyone's persuasion, and let Aunt Qiong help him to leave.

Everyone sent Qihou away, and after sitting down again, the old lady tensed her face and said: "Today's dinner, in addition to cleaning up the five grandnieces, I also want to remind you all. During this period of time, many people from outside came to the capital, and there will inevitably be some friction and conflicts. If you have nothing to do, go out less, and even if you go out, you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and don't bring trouble to the Gongyi family and affect the subsequent selection. Did you hear me clearly?"

Everyone nodded yes.

"Okay, let's start chopsticks again," said the old lady.

Gongyi Kewen picked up a piece of beef tenderloin in front of her, put it on a clean plate, and said: "Grandmother didn't move her chopsticks much just now, today the chef cooked this braised beef tenderloin very well, grandma will try it. "

The maid immediately took the plate and brought it to the old lady. The old lady picked it up kindly, took a bite, tasted it, nodded and said: "Not bad."

"Grandma likes to eat more," Gongyi Kewen said happily, "Come on, put this dish in front of grandma."

However, before the maid could do anything, the old lady's complexion suddenly changed, she covered her chest with one hand, and coughed violently.

"What's going on?" Everyone quickly stood up, "Quick! Go get the doctor!"

Gongyi Kewen hurriedly brought tea to the old lady to rinse her mouth. After rinsing her mouth, the old lady seemed to feel better and her cough was not so severe.

Gongyi Kexue gloated a little, and deliberately said: "The beef tenderloin that Gongyi Kewen gave the old lady just now, there will be no problem, see how the old lady is coughing, and her complexion doesn't look too good, thanks to the old lady. My wife loves you so much, how can you give the old lady food that is problematic!"

"The matter is not clear yet, so don't talk nonsense," Gongyi Kewen said, "I have tasted beef tenderloin myself, how could there be any problems!"

"I also ate a piece just now, and I didn't feel any discomfort. There should be no problem." The second lady said with some uncertainty, feeling a little uneasy in her heart, she would have known that she would not have eaten just now.

Gongyi Keshuang stopped her younger sister from speaking, and said with a concerned face: "If the old lady is really uncomfortable, why don't you let my younger sister take a look first?"

"No need, just wait for Dr. Chen to come. My body has always been examined by Dr. Chen!" The old lady refused.

Gongyi Kewen smoothed things over and said: "Doctor Chen is more familiar with grandmother's physical condition, and he is not in a hurry at this moment. Why bother Fourth Sister."

Yingchu stood with a cold expression on her face, she knew that the banquet at night would definitely be unsettling, so this happened as expected.

After a while, Dr. Chen came with a medicine box on his back and gave the old lady a pulse. Dr. Chen said in surprise: "The old lady has been poisoned! Fortunately, not much, just a little, the old man prescribed some detoxification medicine." Medicine, take two doses and you’ll be fine.”

Everyone was shocked: "Poisoned? How could it be poisoned? Is there really something wrong with the food?"

The second lady said in a panic: "Doctor Chen quickly show me, am I poisoned?"

Dr. Chen took the second lady's pulse, shook his head and said: "Second lady is fine, but second lady's pulse is a little weak, she needs to rest more."

The Second Madam breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you, Dr. Chen, I understand."

Gongyi Kexue was excited, pointed at Gongyi Kewen and said, "The second lady is fine after eating the beef tenderloin, but the old lady was poisoned after eating the beef tenderloin you picked up. Tell me, did you poison the dish? Murder the old lady?!"

"I didn't, it's none of my business!" Gongyi Kewen waved her hands again and again, "How could I poison my grandmother in public, and besides, I have no reason to harm my grandmother!"

"Who else can it be if it's not you!" Gongyi Kexue yelled, "Except for your old lady, I haven't eaten anything from anyone!"

"What are you arguing about!" The old lady said impatiently, "Isn't Dr. Chen here? Let Dr. Chen check it out and it will be clear. What's the noise? It's giving me a headache!"

Yingchu glanced over the old lady's face, and a thought flashed in her eyes.Today, the old lady's reaction was a bit strange. The old lady knew that she was poisoned, and she would definitely throw a tantrum. At this moment, although the old lady's face was a little angry, her eyes were calm.

Doctor Chen first checked the half piece of beef fillet left by the old lady, and then checked the tableware, saying: "The dishes and tableware are not poisonous, the problem is not here."

"How is this possible? If there is no problem, how could the old lady be poisoned?" Gongyi Kexue didn't want to believe it, "Doctor, check it carefully again, don't miss anything!"

"The old man has checked very clearly, the poisoned thing is definitely not on the food," Dr. Chen said, "Did the old lady touch anything special before eating?"

The old lady thought for a while, and said: "At noon, the flower slave brought a bouquet of jasmine. I haven't slept well in the past two days, so I put the flowers beside the couch. Except for this bouquet of jasmine, everything else is the same as usual. Same, nothing special."

"May the old lady ask someone to fetch Jasmine for the old man to check?" Dr. Chen said.

The old lady gestured to Mammy, and Mammy immediately went to bring the vase over.

Doctor Chen frowned as soon as he smelled the flowers, checked the petals, and said: "The problem lies in this bouquet of flowers. The petals were sprinkled with poisonous water. After the toxins floated into the air, they were inhaled by the old lady." , because the amount is not much, so it only happened now."

The old man said angrily: "Bold flower slave, dare to murder the old lady, go and arrest her!"

"Huanu murdered the old lady for no reason. He must have been instigated by someone," said the second lady, "Fortunately, the old lady was not poisoned deeply, but the murderer must not be spared lightly. We must investigate to the end and arrest the murderer." Punish severely!"

But the old lady said: "No, this matter can't make a big deal! This is a sensitive period, and any rumors spread will be detrimental to the family's reputation. If someone uses this to make a big fuss and affect the selection of a few girls Not good."

"But if you let it go so lightly, what will the murderer do next time?" The second lady disagreed.

"As long as I'm careful, the murderer won't be able to get away with it easily. After this period of time has passed, when the dust settles, I'll investigate it carefully." The old lady said without doubt.

The old man and the others were a little surprised at how much the old lady attached importance to selection. She didn't even care about someone poisoning herself.

The corners of Yingchu's lips curled into a smile that was not a smile, the old lady really understood the righteousness this time, and took care of the overall situation!
Gongyi Kewen said: "What grandma said is also reasonable. I think it is impossible for people in the house to harm grandma. If they are really harmful, they would not use such a slight poison. I guess it might be done by people outside." , the purpose is to provoke grandma, make us suspicious of each other, and make us mess up, if it affects us few beautiful girls, wouldn't it reduce one or two competitors?"

When everyone thinks about it, it seems that this is really possible.

"If that's the case, the other party's mind is really insidious," said the elder, "It seems that all of us must be more vigilant, so that no one can take advantage of it!"

Everyone else nodded, regardless of whether the truth is true or not, it is always right to be careful.

Gongyi Kewen said worriedly: "What I am most worried about now is that the other party will not give up and attack grandma again. No matter how careful grandma is, there may be omissions. What if the next time the murderer is poisonous, what should I do? "

The second lady's heart moved, and a smile suddenly appeared on her face: "This matter is easy to handle. I heard that you can buy a pot of rare flowers that can prevent all kinds of poisons from the auction. As long as you put the flowers in the old lady's room, then There is nothing to worry about."

The second lady stared at Yingchu with a smile on her face and said: "Young lady, the old lady usually loves you very much, and you are also the most filial, so you must not be reluctant to give that pot of exotic flowers to the old lady, right? "
