Chapter 64 Accepting His Favor (Part [-])
This slap once again stunned Qi Yunge.

A pair of watery eyes stared wide open, but the tears were about to fall without realizing it for a long time.

Even Yang felt that her daughter had gone too far this time.

but--

Her stance of protecting the calf was firm and unshakable, and she still acquiesced and said nothing.

Mrs. Yu suddenly came back to her senses, pointing at Qi Huan and yelling: "You crazy girl, you have repeatedly insulted your elders and beat your own sisters. You really think there is no one to treat you in this family, right?"

When Qi Yunge heard her scolding, he finally realized it belatedly, covered his face and began to cry.

Qi Huan is a little crazy!
In this home where everyone is restless, looking for trouble, and no one can live in peace, she doesn't feel that other people are more normal than herself.

Why did Yu Shi and even Qi Zhengyu dare not punish her when she broke the ban repeatedly?
That's because they themselves are old and disrespectful, not the kind of upright and respectable elders.

As long as any of them is open-minded, selflessness can naturally be fearless.

But each of them hides dirty calculations and thoughts, because they are calculating her, or Yang's, so, for the greater and longer-term interests in the future, they will be timid, and they don't even have the courage to stand uprightly to educate a junior. No.

Sure enough, Qi Zhengyu still didn't speak.

Qi Huan became more determined——

This person definitely has something in mind for her, otherwise he wouldn't have given in to her presumptuous behavior over and over again.

Yu Shi yelled at him: "Master, do you still care about it?"

"I'm just teaching my own sister a lesson, why is grandma so excited?" Qi Huan directly interrupted her, and she looked at Qi Yunge expressionlessly.

Qi Yunge immediately shrank back two steps and hid in Aunt Yu's arms.

Aunt Yu dared not speak out, so she glared at Qi Huan with hatred.

Qi Huan turned a blind eye to her and only said to Qi Yunge: "I am your sister, the eldest daughter of the Qi family. In terms of age, I am older than you. In terms of dignity, I am a descendant and you are a concubine. But in these years, When did you respectfully call me 'sister' when you met me?"

Relying on the backing of the old lady, Qi Yunge has become a habit of putting on an equal footing in front of his sister-in-law.

Now that Qi Huan pointed it out to her face, she only felt wronged, not wronged.

Looking at her expression, Qi Huan didn't expect her to give in and admit her mistake, so he just went on and said, "I'm not polite, I don't want to please you. You rely on your grandmother doting on you, and you even provoked me several times in person. When I saw it, I rolled my eyes. Despise me from the corner of your eyes. I used to think that you were young and never cared about you...Since the more tolerant I am to you, the more presumptuous you are, then we sisters will change the way we get along. Qi Yunge, remember , I am your sister-in-law, I am the eldest, you are the youngest, I am the eldest son, you are the concubine, the elders and the younger are orderly, there is a difference between the superior and the inferior, this is stipulated by the law, not by me. I don’t care who is behind you I'm supporting you, and it doesn't matter who you can move out as a backer, you are you, a concubine daughter of our Changning Houfu. You'd better behave yourself in the future, otherwise... I think you don't like it, next time I will still beat you!"

Qi Changge was so scolded that he shrank into a ball, and this time he didn't even dare to cry.

Yu Shi felt that she was pointing fingers at Sang Huai, and was so angry that she wanted to laugh: "Heh... look, look, this is for beating me and telling me..."

Yang didn't wait for her to reveal her identity to oppress others, and went straight to her daughter.

"Father, because of the mother-in-law's relationship, the daughter-in-law has never interfered in the affairs of Aunt Yu's mother and daughter's room. Even though she relied on her mother-in-law's support, she has been arrogating for many years, and even disrespected me as the mistress. I didn't say anything. But I didn't say anything, but it doesn't mean I have no objections to it." Naturally, she wouldn't say to Qi Yunge, a spoiled little girl, in a lukewarm tone: "Since taking a step back is only a matter of time." In exchange for other people's advances, it seems that my previous thinking was indeed wrong. Starting today, we will properly rectify the status of wives and concubines in our big house, the status of concubine and concubines."

At this point, she suddenly changed the subject and said coldly: "Xiao Yu, kneel down!"

Aunt Yu shuddered reflexively when she scolded her.

However, she felt that she was right, but she still hesitated to kneel down, with an aggrieved face still asking: "I don't know... What did the concubine do wrong?"

Lady Yun walked to her side in two steps, and kicked her leg.

Aunt Yu let out a cry of pain and knelt down.

Because she was holding Qi Yunge in her arms, Qi Yunge was also dragged down by her and fell to the ground.

Her biological mother was kneeling, and Qi Yunge couldn't stand up by herself.

So after getting up, he also bit his lip and knelt down in aggrieved manner.

Yang was condescending and began to settle accounts after autumn: "If you don't mention it, just stay here. Even if you hear that Brother Xu is ill, you don't report it to me, the mistress, but run to the old lady as soon as possible to take her from the sickbed." Do you think it's right to make a fuss?"

"I... I don't have a concubine..." Aunt Yu didn't expect that she would care about this, so she naturally denied it.

"You haven't?" Yang Shi didn't talk to her too quickly.

She turned her gaze and glanced at all the servants of Fulinyuan: "Okay, since it's not Xiao Yu who is not strict with his mouth, then who recognizes you people in Fulinyuan? She is old, and she may make a mistake at any time because of being too emotional. No matter who reports this to her, it will be punishable. Our mansion does not need such a slave who harbors evil intentions. If you stand up, I will punish you severely loan."

Although Mrs. Yu made excuses from time to time to "be sick again and again", but most of them were deliberately trying to show Yang's power off, trying to play tricks on Yang's people and her reputation outside.

In fact, the old lady has a strong body.

But even so, who can expose her failure to pretend to be sick in public?
It can be said that Yang's charge is extremely serious. Anyone who wants to stand up will be kicked out of the mansion directly. Maybe they will be charged with deliberately murdering the master and sent to see the official.

In the past, Mrs. Shizi might not have been willing to make the family ugly easily.

But now that she is tearing herself apart with the old lady...

No one can guarantee to what extent this Mrs. Shizi with a strong personality will achieve in the end.

A group of people, big and small, in Fulinyuan all bowed their heads and remained silent.

Yang said coldly: "If no one confesses, then I will punish each of you until someone confesses!"

"You...you are presumptuous." Yu Shi finally couldn't bear it anymore, "How can you move the people in my room casually?"

Yang said: "The people in the mother's house, how many of the twenty years' monthly money came from the father-in-law? But they are all raised by my daughter-in-law with my own dowry money. If mother thinks that I shouldn't touch them... ...Then I'll ask someone to get the account book, and we'll settle it on the spot, and mother, if you make up my money, I won't touch anyone in your house."

Changning Hou Mansion itself is not without property, but it is true that before the Yang family, no one in the family was good at running the business.

When Mrs. Tai was there, she maintained a balance of income and expenditure. In fact, the real expenses also subsidized a lot of her own dowry.

after that……

Especially during the ten years since Mrs. Yu married and was in charge of the family, the family accounts were in a mess.

After the Yang family took over this mess, almost all of the shops under Gongzhong's name were losing money.

And Mrs. Yang is indeed a ruthless character. Although she was born as a merchant, she is fully capable of turning these shops into profits, but she is not.

After disposing of all these shops, she will only do business with the part brought in her dowry.

In this matter, even Qi Zhengyu couldn't blame her.

After all, what she took over was a huge hole, she was unwilling to fill it, and no one was qualified to force her to fill it.

So much so that among the industries in the Changning Houfu Gongzhong, some of the properties that make money every year are some land properties.

It's just that although the Yang family has not made money for the Qi family these years, he has been filling this bottomless pit with his own dowry, so that everyone can live a decent and rich life, and everyone can live comfortably without lack of money. Someone will care where the silver came from, or whether it should come from this place.

If Mrs. Yang didn't mention it, they all took it easy.

Now Yang's blatantly throwing out the accounts to liquidate...

Yu himself was in charge of Zhongfu, so why didn't he know what was going on in the mansion.

She immediately shrank her neck guiltily.

There are a lot of people serving in her courtyard, and the sum of these twenty years' monthly bills is not a small amount. Even if she had some savings, she would not take it out.

Seeing the old lady riding a tiger, Aunt Yu knew that she should not be put at a disadvantage. After struggling again and again, she could only admit it through gritted teeth: "Ma'am, this concubine didn't do it on purpose. Actually Brother Xu is the flesh that fell from me. I suddenly got the news. Said that something happened to him, and he didn't have a backbone under the panic... That's why I went to the old lady."

Yang was waiting for her words, and immediately asked back: "You are from my garden, and I am Brother Xu's aunt. If something happened to him, you don't go to look for me, but you don't care that the old lady is sick. Do you want to go far to find her? Do you not trust me as the head of the house, or are you deliberately torturing the old lady?"

"No!" Aunt Yu couldn't defend herself, her clothes were already wet with sweat.

She couldn't recognize any of the two reasons Yang gave her, so she could only repeat: "I'm flustered for a while..."

"In the final analysis, I have indulged you too much in these years." Yang said, "From tomorrow onwards, you mother and daughter are not allowed to disturb the old lady's recovery. And you, you have been in the house for these years, I should give you Set up the rules. I don't need you to wait on me, starting tomorrow, every day when the time comes to Si, you will take Yun Ge to my yard to listen to the training, and stand for two hours to behave."

Aunt Yu has been in the Qi family these years, but the Yu family has raised her as a young lady, and she has never suffered a bit.

Asking her to stand for two hours a day to behave herself would be equivalent to killing her half-life.

So before Qi Yunge cried miserably, Aunt Yu's face was already pale with fright.

But she also knew that whenever Mrs. Yang opened her mouth to punish her, it was useless for her to say anything, so she turned to Mrs. Yu: "Auntie..."

Naturally, Mrs. Yu would not allow Mrs. Yang to do this.

It's not a question of whether Aunt Yu is suffering or not, it's mainly because Yang slapped her in the face when she did this.

She put on a straight face, and immediately stood up to support Aunt Yu.

Yang Shi was the first to attack.

"As the first wife, I set rules for the concubine's room. It's only right and proper, and the mother-in-law has no right to intervene." Her attitude was calm and her tone was gentle, even if she said it, every sentence was not pleasant.

Knowing that Mrs. Yu was looking for faults and revenge, she simply took the initiative again: "Of course, mother-in-law, as an elder, you can also call me over to set the rules, but whenever you open your mouth, my daughter-in-law will never complain. But in this way, our family's miscellaneous affairs Too much, I'm afraid I won't have the time and energy to take care of it. The housekeeper's... mother-in-law, please take it back too."

She is a naked threat!

Qi Zhengyu's eyes turned cold.

But Mrs. Yu has already fallen into the trap, and said angrily: "You really think that without you, my Qi family's life will not be over?"

Taking back the housekeeping power has always been her obsession.

But when she caught a glimpse of Qi Zhengyu's face by accident, she was startled——

That's right, she can't deduct Yang's dowry and take it casually. The housekeeper can take it back, but it's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. Could she bring the whole family to drink the northwest wind?

As soon as she changed her mind, she sneered: "I'm not just the eldest son..."

Cen was originally taking care of her son in the house, but there was such a big commotion in the courtyard, she couldn't pretend not to hear, so she also came out.

The old lady is not stupid enough to take advantage of her?
Cen's reaction was very quick, and she flatly refused: "Mother was joking, the elder brother is the eldest son of our Changning Hou Mansion, and the elder sister-in-law is the future wife of the Qi family. If the family is not harmonious, it is easier to become the laughing stock of the whole capital, and the daughter-in-law dare not presume."

Her attitude towards Mrs. Yu is the same as Mrs. Yang's. Anyway, the old woman doesn't look like a mother-in-law. She doesn't treat herself as a daughter-in-law, so it's just a matter of maintaining face. Who really respects her and lets her go?

Yu hit the wall one after another, Hao Xuan couldn't carry it back without a breath.

But although she didn't let go of her anger, now this difficult situation is here...

Really unable to get off the stage, she looked left and right, and then she fell down slowly, clutching her chest: "You...you..."

"Oh, old lady!" The servants exclaimed and rushed up to help her.

Neither Yang nor Cen touched their hands.

Yang said: "Take mother back first, and then go to Brother Xu's room to ask. If Brother Xu is fine for a while, ask Dr. Chen to go over and show mother first."

Everyone half-supported and half-hugged Yu Shi, and the noise was about to part at last.

Aunt Yu's mother and daughter got up from the troubled waters and slipped away together.

Yang shi took care of them lazily and just turned a blind eye to it.

Soon, the people in the yard left cleanly.

Yang Qingyun watched this farce with mixed feelings in his heart.

If he hadn't experienced it himself, he would never have imagined that his aunt would live such a life surrounded by enemies when she married into the Qi family.
Seeing that he was distracted, Mrs. Yang walked over and patted the back of his hand, showing a broad smile again: "Pack up your things, don't miss anything, I have already told them to prepare the carriages and horses, I will take Brother Chen first." Send it back to settle down, and we will meet at the gate later."

It was agreed earlier in the morning that Mrs. Yang sent him to the Gongyuan.

Although Yang Qingyun felt that she must be very tired and a little bit sorry after the trouble, but he also knew that if Yang Shi was not allowed to go, Yang Shi would also miss her and feel uneasy.

So, he didn't say much.

Qi Yuanchen should have gone to bed by this time. The little man looked exhausted, and it was rare for him to want to walk on the way back, so he asked Mama Liu to carry him back.

After entering Qixia Garden, Qi Huan parted ways with Yang Shi: "Mom, go back and put on some clothes, and let Brother Chen go to bed. Dr. Hu is still with me, so I'll call her, and we'll take her back to the medical clinic." "

If she didn't mention it, Yang almost forgot that there was a guest in the house.

With a worried look on her face, she took her daughter's hand: "It's getting late, we'll come back at dawn, you may not be able to survive, why don't you go?"

Qi Huan said with a smile: "I also want to personally send my cousin to the examination room, and wish him a title on the gold list. What's the point of staying up all night?"

Seeing her energetic appearance, Yang's doubts gradually disappeared, so she didn't persuade her any more.

Qi Huan felt very sorry for leaving Dr. Hu alone for a long time, and almost ran back to his yard at a trot.

At that time, the room was lit with lights, and the door was ajar.

Qi Huan pushed the door open and went in, only to see Yun Xi sitting at the table dozing with his head propped up in sleepiness, but Dr. Hu was still in high spirits, flipping through an old book.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Yunxi jumped up.

Then I remembered to rub my eyes, saw who was coming, and said in a daze, "Miss, are you back? Do you want a drink of water or supper?"

Qi Huan laughed: "Go to sleep, I just need Xingluo."

Yun Xi was so sleepy and stupid, she completely forgot that there was another guest in the room, so she stared and left.

Seeing her like that, Dr. Hu also thought it was cute, so he also smiled.

She put away the book in her hand, smoothed the pages, put it on the table, and explained to Qi Huan: "I'm bored when I'm free, and I saw that there was a miscellaneous note on various plants on your bookshelf, so I flipped through it."

"I was the one who neglected." Qi Huan said, and walked over.

She thought for a while, but decided to dismiss Xing Luo as well: "I just forgot to tell my mother, go and remind her quickly, don't forget to bring the ingredients prepared in the kitchen, we will meet at the gate in a while. "

Xingluo didn't doubt that he was there, so he rushed to An Xuetang immediately to spread the word as soon as he promised.

Qi Huan was a little serious, adhering to his usual style, and said bluntly: "At that time in the front yard, Sister Hu seemed to have reservations about her words, so I specially asked you here. Now there are no outsiders here, since I invited you over, As long as you can trust your character, if you have any hidden secrets, you just say it's okay."

When I first met her in the medical clinic, Dr. Hu only felt that this lady of the family was dignified and generous, and she acted and spoke without restraint, quite carefree and casual.

At this moment, I feel that she has quick thinking and delicate thoughts, and she is straightforward and unaffected in dealing with things, which is very true to her temper.

She had some scruples in her heart, so she no longer hesitated: "The doctor in your family has more experience and experience than me, and his medical skills should be better than mine. Naturally, the results of our joint examination will not be different. Bad, but... I want to remind you..."

Seeing her serious face, Qi Huan couldn't help but be more vigilant, waiting for her to continue.

"The little brother you sent to my house probably told me what happened." Dr. Hu said, "If it's my villainous heart, don't take offense, but I learned from his words. I know that your young master stayed at the Yang family's residence to play all afternoon. Although veratrum and acacia are both effective against ginseng, but if they cause injury or death, it all depends on the amount of the medicine. As for your eldest son today Judging from the symptoms, the dose of the drug is really not light. However, it is not safe to use this method to harm people. The same dose, depending on the individual's constitution, the reaction will be mild or severe."

Qi Huan understood what she meant: "Anyway, I'm going to take a risk. If I really want to kill someone, why don't I just inject poison?"

Dr. Hu, a doctor, discussed poisoning and killing people, which made her feel a little ashamed.

She just nodded.

Qi Huan explained: "So I guess the intention of the person who prescribed the medicine was not to really kill someone, but to interrupt, and not to let any of them participate in tomorrow's Chunwei. There are not many clues left about this matter so far. How, I will continue to investigate later. This is what Sister Hu wants to remind me?"

Dr. Hu shook his head, his expression became more and more serious: "I just want to say that if adults take the amount of medicine in the ginseng soup today, it may not be fatal, but if your little son drinks it by mistake, even if you only take one or two Spoons... children's stomachs are more delicate...you may have to be extra careful."

Qi Yuanchen?
Yes!Qi Yuanchen has been with Yang Qingyun all afternoon!
If it wasn't for the two of them by accident, they packed a roast duck for lunch and went back to eat it, and they ate as usual at night, took supplements, and sent ginseng soup. According to Yang Qingyun's temperament, he would definitely not enjoy it to himself, so he would feed Qi Yuanchen two spoonfuls of.

If so...

Now, Qi Yuanchen would probably die long ago.

Dr. Hu didn't mention it, Qi Huan was only thinking about sending Yang Qingyun to the exam on time, and didn't have time to think about other things.

At this moment, she broke out in a cold sweat in a flash of fear.

So, today's incident may not be aimed at preventing Qi Yuanxu and Qi Yuanxu from taking the exam?It is also possible that someone used this as a cover to actually attack Qi Yuanchen?

Dr. Hu saw that her face had turned slightly pale, so he said again: "There is no real evidence, I'm just guessing, after all, your family..."

It's not good for her to talk about other people's family affairs, so it's enough to stop: "In short, it's right to be more careful."

"I know, thank you for reminding me." Qi Huan quickly cleared up his scattered thoughts and forced himself to calm down.

After thanking her, she suddenly became a little puzzled: "Sister Hu, forgive me for being disrespectful. You and I only met once before. Today, you are willing to come to help and you have done your best. Why do you need to remind me? Is it... the doctor is benevolent?" ?”

"Doctors have benevolence, but they also have the rules of doctors, and the survival rules of our profession." Doctor Hu chuckled, and took his medicine box on his back, "I'm not a meddlesome person, but you Although I only met once, but for Gu Shizi's sake, I should remind you one more thing."

Gu Shizi?Is that Gu Zhan Gu Shizi from Pingguo Mansion?

She only had a lukewarm relationship with that person, and she didn't say a few words to each other, let alone friendship...

How could this somehow accept his favor?

Qi Huan was stunned.

 I originally only wanted to write 4k, but you all said that I was digressing, let me walk the prince... okay, revealing the name is also considered a walk, just to let him walk, it made me [-] extra words~~o (>_<) o ~~
  Also, how come none of you are curious about who gave the medicine in the ginseng soup?
  I don’t even bother to ask, to guess, as long as I write it myself, I’m very happy, but I’m embarrassed by you guys…
