Chapter 77

When Qi Huan entered the mansion, he just assumed that what the little woman said was true, and made no noise at all.

She just casually asked the mother-in-law on duty: "I've been away for two hours, but has anyone come to our house to look for someone?"

The woman said with a puzzled look, "No."

Qi Huan didn't say any more, got into the carriage and took back the packet of rouge and gouache, and sent Lao Jing to drive the carriage back to the carriage and stable.

She picked up her things and was going to the inner courtyard.

The old lady was looking around with the door open, and at this moment, she hurried around the screen wall to catch up and asked: "Miss, didn't Miss Xingluo leave the mansion with you? Didn't she come back together?"

Qi Huan said: "I suddenly remembered something that I forgot to buy, so I sent her back to buy it. She will come back later, remember to leave a door for her."

The woman didn't ask any more questions, and agreed to go back and close the door.

Here Qi Huan was carrying his things, he didn't leave the big garden, he went through the inner house to enter the Qixia Garden.

Yang was sick there, she was worried, so she didn't go back to Chunyu Zhai.

As a result, as soon as he entered the courtyard of An Xuetang, he looked up and saw Aunt Yu, mother and daughter standing in the courtyard.

Qi Huan didn't sleep all night, his brain reaction was indeed slower than usual, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback, he just thought that the mother and daughter heard that Yang was ill, and they came to see the excitement under the guise of visiting the sick.

She was displeased, and immediately frowned, and asked the two big girls who were guarding the porch: "What are they doing here? They're not embarrassing mother!"

Mrs. Yang was sick and didn't want anyone in the room, but the two maids didn't dare to go far, so they sat in the shade under the porch and sewed.

Originally, she was putting her two heads together, concentrating on studying the embroidery patterns, but Qi Huan was alone again, walking lightly, so she didn't realize that she had entered the yard.

"Miss is back." The two got up quickly.

Seeing that she was carrying something in her hand, Gui Yun immediately came up to help her take it.

While speaking, Qi Yunge heard Qi Huan's voice, and immediately turned around, glaring with resentment and hatred.

It was only then that Qi Huan noticed that she must have been exposed to the sun for a long time, her face was slightly flushed, and because she was more delicate, she might have been tired, and her complexion looked very tired and haggard.

Qi Huan suddenly remembered what Yang said in the front yard last night.

Gui Yun also helped to explain: "Didn't Madam stop talking last night and ask Aunt Yu and Fourth Miss to come over every day to set the rules? As a result, Madam was not feeling well and slept all morning, so she didn't care about this. Auntie and Fourth Miss... probably forgot. The Madam sent Jin Mama to call her two, saying that today they will be punished for an extra hour."

Because it was in his own courtyard, Gui Yun did not avoid Aunt Yu's mother and daughter when speaking.

While talking, he looked at the sky and said: "It's still early, at least an hour and a half."

Qi Huan walked past the mother and daughter, and couldn't help but glance at Aunt Yu again, but saw that she was also slightly flushed, with sweat on her forehead, gritted her teeth, and her face was very ugly.

The mother and daughter were dissatisfied at first glance.

Qi Huan felt that they really needed to be cleaned up.

Since she has committed herself to being a concubine, she should have such awareness and self-consciousness that she will definitely be taken care of by her main wife.

In the past, it was Mrs. Yang who was too lazy to argue with Mrs. Yu. As long as they didn't directly mess with her, she could do whatever they wanted. But the mother and daughter were fine. I really thought that there would be no rules in this family?

What Mrs. Yang said in public last night was so clear that she asked them to get up and stand up for the rules today, but they still ignored it, and when they woke up, they thought they had avoided it, and they took the mistress's words as farts!

This is purely courting death!
Guiyue didn't say how Mama Jin was so swift, she rushed to Xia Yuexuan, told the mother and daughter that they had no chance to ask Yu's asylum, and arrested her.

But Qi Huan knew the virtues of this group of people, and he could guess well.

She just walked and asked Gui Yun: "Is mother awake now?"

Gui Yun said: "I woke up at noon, drank the medicine, and asked the eldest lady whereabouts..."

After a pause, he deliberately lowered his voice and reminded Qi Huan, "I'm sure I haven't slept right now."

At this time, Qi Huan went out alone, and Yang Shi was also worried about coming.

Qi Huan nodded to show that he knew, and pushed the door open.

There was still some medicinal smell left in the room.

Traditional Chinese medicine is often unbearably bitter in the mouth, but the herbal medicine has such a medicinal fragrance, Qi Huan does not dislike the taste.

Leaning on the soft pillow of the bed, Yang closed her eyes to rest her mind, but she must have opened her eyes when she heard Qi Huan's voice in the yard, but she was still sleepy, with a sickly look on her face and very listless.

Qi Huan glanced into the room: "Is the little one here?"

This question was originally asked by Mrs. Yang.

But Guiyun has good eyesight. Seeing that Yang's illness has become like this, he probably didn't want to talk, so he quickly replied: "I woke up just after noon and came to stay for a while, but Madam is afraid that he will be angry with him if he gets sick." , let Madam Liu lead the young master to your place."

It's not that there is no place for Qi Yuanchen to play in Yang's yard, but she is in the concubine punishment room and the concubine standing by the rules, wanting to come...

She didn't want such a young child to watch such things all the time.

While talking, Guiyue had already brought tea in from the small kitchen, and asked again: "Miss, do you want to make lunch for you?"

Qi Huan was not hungry.

She walked to Yang's side, sat down on the edge of her bed, and asked her gently: "Have mother had lunch?"

"Madam has been lacking energy today, and only ate half a bowl of soup for lunch." It was still Gui Yun who answered.

Yang Shi was afraid that she would be worried, so although she had no strength, she managed to squeeze out a smile: "It's okay, I'll take it easy."

Qi Huan then turned to Guiyue and said, "Go and ask Dr. Chen what is suitable for mother to eat now, and then let the small kitchen make it and bring it in."

Yang really didn't have much appetite, and just about to say that there is no need to bother, Qi Huan said again: "I didn't eat much for lunch outside, and I didn't eat much. I will eat with my mother later."

When Yang heard the words, she didn't make a sound.

Guiyue put down the teacup, took the empty tray and went out.

Gui Yun also put the bag in his hand on the table.

Qi Huan suddenly remembered something, so he raised his chin at her: "That has rouge powder in it, except for a can of rouge that I opened, you pick it out, and you and Guiyue take the rest to the girl in the courtyard first." Let's pick, and I'll take the rest back to Yunxi and the others."

Gui Yun let out a joyful cry: "My maidservant, on behalf of the sisters, thank the young lady for the reward."

Qi Huan smiled and waved his hand.

Gui Yun went out with a smile on his face, holding the bag of things.

Yang Shi kept staring at her as she went out, and only when the door was closed from the outside did she look back and stare fixedly at Qi Huan.

He was really sick and weak, so he didn't say anything.

Qi Huan understood what she meant, and took out the box of apricot incense from his sleeve pocket: "I went to Caidiexuan and found this box of incense powder."

Yang Shi smelled that smell, and immediately knew it.

If she hadn't fallen ill like this, there would be absolutely no need for her daughter to run around such housework.

A trace of helplessness appeared on her face, and she said weakly: "Actually, you don't need to bother to investigate so much. There must be a motive for everything you do. Even if there is no real evidence, the reason for this matter must come from our mansion."

She has been a housekeeper all these years, and her heart is like a mirror.

I didn't say it before, I just wanted to confuse it, because I didn't get any real evidence.

Furthermore—

He was also cold-hearted about the Marquis of Changning, and he was unwilling to bother, even thankfully, to find the truth and innocence for these people.

"Mother, have you already figured it out?" Qi Huan was not surprised to see her expression and attitude.

But her tone was calm and calm, and Yang Shi was somewhat interested. Instead, she looked at her with a smile, and asked without answering: "Then you should tell me what you have found out first."

Qi Huan would not argue with her about this kind of thing, so he just said bluntly: "My mother is right, there must be a motive for everything, since someone took the risk to do something in this house, but it wasn't a deadly and poisonous black hand." , that means that his original purpose was not to take someone's life. But it happened at the juncture of Chun Wei, and it was aimed at the three candidates who were about to enter the family, so the purpose was very clear... Then Someone didn't want them, or one or two of them, to take the exam."

Yang Shi didn't speak, just nodded, motioning for her to continue talking.

Qi Huan said: "This is not difficult to guess. Even Mrs. Yu and the others thought of it immediately, and immediately pointed the finger at my cousin, but we all knew that this matter is absolutely impossible to be related to my cousin. Then let's talk about family First of all, from the grandfather's point of view, he must hope that both grandchildren can successfully take the scientific examination. If one more grandson goes, the chances of winning will be higher for the whole family, so no matter who Whoever you like more, or who you don't like less, will not use this method at this juncture."

A smile gradually appeared on Yang's face, which meant encouragement.

Qi Huan said again: "Then the rest are the Erfang gang, and Yu's gang. It's obvious that Yu's side wants big brother to become a blockbuster, so as to increase his bargaining chip to become father's heir. So, if It was they who poisoned and wanted to tie up the second brother. This has obvious motives. As for the second room...Although they have been keeping a low profile and protecting themselves, we said that in the morning, because of the grandfather's partial attitude, the people in the second room also Not necessarily without ambition."

At this time, Yang finally took over: "But as far as I know, brother Erfang Ming's talent is extremely good, but brother Xu is far behind him."

Although Qi Huan didn't have much contact with these two cheap brothers, but based on the principle of knowing oneself and knowing the enemy, she has known them to some extent.

She said: "So, my mother's inference is that because the eldest brother knew that he had no hope in high school, he simply did nothing and directed a bitter trick? As long as they both miss this spring, they will be inseparable for at least three years." Come up with a high and low victory, so as to consume the second room?"

As for why there is no doubt that Mrs. Yu and Aunt Yu's mother and daughter are also involved...

Those few really didn't have the brains, the city government, and even the courage and cruelty to use their bodies as bait.

Young's default.

Her eyes turned cold, and the corners of her lips curled up in a mocking arc: "Yun'er has no direct conflict of interest with them, even in high school, it can't affect them, I think it's a mistake this time, causing him to suffer an innocent disaster. "

Fortunately, Yang Qingyun was lucky, he just didn't drink that cup of soup last night.

Mrs. Yang already had an idea in her heart, but because Yang Qingyun had already picked it out——

Why did she become this villain, to offend either the Yu family or the second room, and then suppress the opponent for the other?
This kind of thankless thing was something she would do with passion when she was young and ignorant when she first got married.

Qi Huan can actually understand Yang's state of mind at the moment——

She is disheartened towards this Qi family, and now she only wants to protect herself wisely, and she can avoid the disputes of others as much as she can.

Qi Huan was silent for a while, but broke the silence again: "What about the second brother?"

Yang's interest seemed to fade away.

There was no need for her to continue to pretend to be confused in front of her daughter: "Either he was really lucky and just escaped a catastrophe and narrowly passed the test, or..."

Yang's words only stop here, and then he sneered with dark eyes.

"Either he's already aware of it, and he's just planning on doing it." Qi Huan took over her words, "Although he paid a little price, if he can use this to make things go awry and ruin the future of the whole family, grandfather will never I won't tolerate it. What's more, because my cousin was implicated, according to your mother's protective temper, it is very likely that you will hold on to it. In this way, their second wife can kill people with a knife. Qi Yuanxuzhong was directly drawn out of the family tree, To be expelled from the house, at least...will be completely rejected by my grandfather. Our brother Chen is still young, so the second room can crush our first room in every aspect."

What's more, there was a bowl of ginseng soup delivered to Yang Qingyun.

If he was really eaten by Qi Yuanchen...

This incident was not simply a brawl between cousins ​​who wanted to ruin the future of the other. If you think about the worst, the conspiracy behind it was so dark and bloody that it made Qi Huan tremble with fear.

Yang once again chose to remain silent.

She also had guesses about these things, but she didn't want to get into the game and be used as a gunman, so she didn't plan to delve into it.

Looking at her pale and haggard face, Qi Huan sighed secretly, and picked up the box of incense powder at hand: "I found out where this box of incense powder came from, and the woman who uses this fragrance powder, I don't know. Whether it was a coincidence or artificially, in short, I also bumped into her, and now I have asked Xing Luo to follow her, and if there are no accidents, I should be able to find where she is staying."

How could Mrs. Yang not understand the involvement behind this?
She didn't expect that Qi Huan could really follow the clues and find more clues, and immediately ignored the pain and struggled to sit up.

Yue Mo was too nervous, her lips moved, but she didn't speak.

Qi Huan told the truth: "It should be the eldest brother hiding in the outer golden house, and the cause of this incident is probably also with him."

"Then..." Yang hesitated for a moment, but instead of stopping Qi Huan, she asked her daughter's opinion, "You want to expose him?"

Pulling down Qi Yuanxu, the one who benefited the most is definitely the second room.

It was the son's fault that he didn't teach his father, Qi Yuanxu Jinwu Cangjiao is a young man, he ruined his brother's future, this is what Qi Zhengyu hates the most, and when he gets angry, he will only favor the second wife even more.

Qi Wenjing, as well as the entire big room, would only become more unbearable in his eyes.

This is a big event that affects the whole body.

It's no wonder that Yang couldn't think about it before, and was vague about the past.

And now, she still doesn't want to pursue it.

It's just that, seeing her daughter so actively pursuing the matter, she didn't want to go her own way, completely disregarding her daughter's wishes, and force her to swallow her breath.

Yang's heart was quite tangled, and she couldn't take her eyes off her daughter.

Qi Huan was always calm.

She smiled: "My daughter doesn't want to compromise, and she doesn't want to rub the sand in her own eyes. Qi Yuanxu is of course self-inflicted, and the guilt is inevitable, but I still care about Erfang's true position and attitude in this round. If the second brother is really just If we didn't notice for a while, and then suffered an unwarranted disaster, then our eldest house will clean up the house and make decisions for him. Afterwards, we will be rejected by our grandfather, and I don't even care about it. Even if his second house is also scheming and scheming us In that case, wouldn't our mother and daughter vomit to death?"

Enemies exposed to the light should be killed, but they are not the most terrifying.

It is the one hiding in the dark!

Qi Huan prides herself on not being an idiot, so she doesn't want to be taken advantage of by an idiot who thinks nothing of herself.

Yang frowned tightly at this moment.

The mother and daughter looked at each other silently.

After a while, Qi Huan came over from the kitchen and asked if he wanted to set up a meal, Qi Huan said: "Let's not say anything about this matter, we will talk about it later."

She asked the cook to prepare the meal, and directly placed a small table on Yang's bed.

Yang Shi didn't have much appetite, but she didn't want to worry her daughter, so she reluctantly ate some.

Afterwards, as soon as Gui Yun took the table away, Xing Luo rushed in sweating profusely.
