The wicked girl

Chapter 316 Want to cover up
Ever since Marquis Yong'an coughed so much that he vomited blood that day, he was in a daze all the time.Lying on the bed at this moment, with half-closed eyes, he looks like he is exhaling more than inhaling. It is impossible to imagine that he was such a strong old man a few days ago.

Although he is indeed old, but Yong'anhou's back has always been straight.

The hair is gray, but the eyes are still like a falcon, so sharp that they can almost see through your heart.

But now, he could only lie quietly, and he didn't even seem to have the strength to move his fingers.

Seeing Ye Kui, she couldn't help frowning slightly.

At this time, looking at the aging Marquis Yong'an from a distance, Ye Kui couldn't help but think of the hairpin that Pei Changge hid—a relic of her mother.She always remembered that the young Pei Changge told her, who was also young, that it was his mother's relic.

At that time, Pei Changge, who was only ten years old, used that hairpin to kill the trafficker Lao Hei and saved their lives.

In the blink of an eye, almost nine years have passed.In just a few months, it will be nine years.However, the scene nine years ago is still as clear as yesterday.She even remembered the style and material of the hairpin firmly, as if she had just seen it a moment ago.But clearly, she only saw it once.

But the timing of that hairpin appearing in front of her was too special, so she couldn't forget it even if she wanted to.

The black hairpin pierced Lao Hei's throat, right in front of her.

How could she forget such a hairpin...

But after she married Pei Changge, she never stayed for a few days, and she never thought of asking about the hairpin at all.What's more, at that time, she was still caught in the matter of why Pei Changge's mother was still alive, so she couldn't escape at all.

Now she already knows.

Pei Changge's biological mother might not be Mrs. Yong'an Hou at all.

That's why he said back then that the hairpin was a relic of his mother.But at that time, Pei Changge already knew about his life experience?
As Ye Kui thought about it, her heart suddenly became slightly sour.An indescribable feeling swept up in an instant, filling her with a sense of loss.A child who is only ten years old, no matter how precocious and powerful he is, is he still a child?But at that time, Pei Changge had already learned to hide the unspeakable secret in his heart.

Up to now, she dared to assert that Pei Changning, the elder brother of the twins, definitely didn't know anything.

But he didn't know it, and another person who knew it would have to bear more things.Many years ago, Pei Changge had already endured alone many things that a child should not have to bear?

Thinking of this, Ye Kui only felt her heart tremble.

Her younger brother Ye Shu is not like this.

As a mother who is about to become a mother, her perception of people and things has gradually changed.

Subtly, those things that were insignificant to her in the past were so different when looking back now.When she was young, she didn't feel much about Xiao Yunniang's death, just because she didn't think Xiao Yunniang was her mother at all.But Ye Shu was different, he was younger and had an innate love for Xiao Yunniang, so he was naturally more sad than her.

Once upon a time, she also tried to tell herself that she must protect the poor child Ye Shu.

But it turned out that she was not a person who could be a good guardian at all.

Ye Kui put on a faintly wry smile at the corner of her mouth, and rested her palm lightly on her swollen belly.

She was really terrified.

So this time, even if it's for this little thing in her stomach, she will try her best to protect it.

People start to grow from the moment they land on the ground.And this process will only stop on the day of death.Some regrets should still have the opportunity to make up for it now.

She sighed secretly, watching Jiang Nanny frowning and let go of Yong'anhou's wrist.

"What's the matter?" The weak-tempered Third Master Pei is really a filial son, and now he only cares about the health of Marquis Yong'an.As soon as he saw Mother Jiang let go of her hand, he immediately asked.

Mother Jiang didn't answer her directly, but glanced at Ye Kui quietly, saw her nod her head slightly, and then said: "The injuries left by Master Hou when he was young, now all of them come out when he is old. , that’s why this disease is so aggressive.”

What she said was not much different from that of the doctor invited earlier.

The second wife and the second master Pei have a dark heart, and after hearing what she said, they both heaved a sigh of relief.Sitting there, Second Master Pei touched his chin with his hand, his expression gradually relaxed.

And Mr. Pei frowned, and said anxiously: "Then we can only rest?"

"Yes." Jiang Nanny nodded, "Only rest and recuperation are available."

At this time, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.

When everyone heard the sound, they all turned their heads to look, only to see the third lady came in Shi Shiran from outside with someone holding a bag of things, and Qin Sang had quietly returned to Ye Kui's side at some point, bent down and lowered her body. The voice said: "The servant girl saw the medicine dregs she wrapped."

That being the case, there must be something wrong with this medicine dregs.

Otherwise, Second Master Pei would not have specifically mentioned the matter of medicinal residues just now.

Since the third lady is not smart enough to do anything, then the problem in this medicine can definitely be seen from this bag of medicine dregs.In this way, he must have fulfilled Erye Pei's wish.From this point of view, Second Master Pei probably suspected that she was here to ruin the situation, so he pushed out the third lady as a scapegoat.

But it's a pity, she just came here to find out the situation, and she has no interest in things like smashing the scene for the time being.

So Mother Jiang had already got her orders before coming here, no matter what happened or not, just follow the most obvious symptoms.As for the medicine, he really hadn't thought of it at first.

If it wasn't for the second wife trying to hide the bowl of medicine out of their sight, she would never have thought that the couple in the second room would be so bold as to directly tamper with Yong'anhou's medicine.

But these two old foxes are not brainless people after all, they are very smart, probably they have already planned to let the third lady be the scapegoat from the beginning, and honestly take the blame for them.

Fortunately, Marquis Yong'an was only ill after all, and this illness could not have taken his life away overnight, so even if the people in the second bedroom wanted to do something, they could only do it slowly.The faster things are done, the easier it is to be noticed by others. They have no choice but to do it slowly.

But this slowness, troubles naturally follow.

The movement is too slow, and it may be discovered by someone again at some point.

Ye Kui sneered secretly, it is really not easy to do something evil.

It was also the third lady who was unlucky, and she was not smart enough to be coaxed by the second lady to cook medicine so easily.After a while, the third lady had someone hand over the medicine dregs to Nanny Jiang, and said in a contemptuous tone: "Where did you find this doctor? Is her medical skill really superb? Could it be that she was just an outsider?" What kind of traveling doctor?"

The so-called traveling doctor is just a nice way of saying it. To put it bluntly, it is just a barefoot doctor in the countryside. If it can cure a headache and fever, it is already good.So when the third lady spoke like this, she made it clear that she looked down on Nanny Jiang, and even wanted to belittle Ye Kui.

"Sister-in-law San, did you ever hire a traveling doctor?" Ye Kui asked casually.

The third madam was slightly angry, looked at her, and said unhappily: "The ninth sibling must have been invited, but I have never seen what it looks like to be a doctor."

Ye Kui has stayed in the country for many years, and there are many people in the country who visit doctors. The third lady's words are reasonable.

"Third sister-in-law is really good at joking." Ye Kui felt sorry for her being used as a scapegoat and didn't know it, and didn't bother to waste time with her, so she said directly, "This is Jiang Nai, who is close to my third aunt. Comparable to the adults in the Taiyuan Hospital."

"Your third aunt?" The third lady was taken aback, as if she didn't remember who Ye Kui's third aunt was.But soon, she came to her senses, looked at Jiang Momo with a slight embarrassment on her face, closed her mouth tightly and stopped talking.

She is someone close to Her Royal Highness, she is not easy to offend.

But she had already shut up, but she still had that heartlessness to bring up the topic again, which made the third lady want to go forward and seal her man's mouth immediately!

It was only because Mr. Pei saw her talking to Ye Kui like this, and thinking about Pei Xiaojiu, that happened. Even if Ye Kui couldn't see how sad it was on his face, he must have felt uncomfortable in his heart, so he said out loud to the third lady. One sentence: "The nine younger brothers and sisters are thoughtful, and the people invited are naturally highly skilled in medicine."

He was used to being weak in the past, and he was a "strict wife", so naturally he didn't dare to criticize the third wife.But just such a sentence also annoyed the third lady.She turned her face away angrily, without even looking at Mr. Pei.

Fortunately, Mother Jiang has carefully read the bag of medicine dregs at this moment, and compared it with the prescription that the Second Madam asked to take out later, and said: "There is nothing wrong with the prescription, although it is not very OK, but it's possible."

Hearing the words, Second Master Pei couldn't help but slander: I thought some powerful person was invited, but it turned out to be useless, worrying for nothing!
The second lady directly covered half of her face with a veil, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Then ask Nanny to prescribe a better prescription!" Only Third Master Pei hurriedly said after listening to Nanny Jiang's words carefully.

Mother Jiang was waiting for his words, she nodded immediately and said, "Excuse me, prepare a pen and paper."

The second lady immediately asked someone to fetch the four treasures of the study.

Ye Kui looked at it expressionlessly, but smiled slightly in her heart.
