Chapter 79
"What kind of poison is this? Why haven't I heard of it!" Su Jiu was in Jianghu, and had heard of many poisons, but she had never heard of this name.

"That's Xiao Nizi, you are too young!" Old man Gu sneered.

Stone flower powder is a kind of poison specially used on women. It will not be life-threatening, but it will change the body structure of women. In just two days, an ordinary woman will become a stone girl. Impossibility of fertility is a kind of poison used by women in the backyard of the mansion to compete for favor.

Because this kind of poison is too vile and despicable, it has gradually disappeared over the years.

Unexpectedly, it would appear again in Ji's residence.

Old man Gu's always lazy brows are also a little more gloomy. This little girl is the mistress of Ji's mansion. It seems that the poison was used on her body. Her "maid" was poisoned by accident. .

Fortunately, this "maid" is not a real woman, so the poison will only make him suffer from abdominal pain.

Outside the bedroom, Nanny Fan and the four maidservants Chunxiaoqiudong were guarding. Seeing Ji Yuxian approaching from a distance, they hurriedly bowed to pay their respects.

Ji Yuxian didn't comb her hair, it was only loosely tied behind her back, covered with a silver fox fur, she walked into the bedroom without stopping.

Hearing the sound, the nanny hurriedly came out from the inner room, bowed her head to pay her respects, "I have seen the eldest son!"

Ji Yuxian frowned faintly, "Who was poisoned?"

"Master Chang, it's our young lady's maid, Chang Huan. Dr. Gu is already treating him."

"What poison did you get?"

The nanny hesitated for a moment, "Stone flowers are scattered."

Ji Yuxian's long and narrow phoenix eyes narrowed immediately.

Standing in the outer room, Ji Yuxian looked in with raised eyes, and saw that Su Jiu was hugging her "servant", with a gloomy and nervous expression, and didn't even notice that he came in.

Chang Huan's face was pale, his eyes were tightly closed, and he kept arching into Su Jiu's arms.

Ji Yuxian's eyes darkened slightly, and he walked towards the inner room.

The nanny hurriedly knelt down and stopped her, "My lord! Chang Huan is a woman, so please avoid suspicion, my lord!"

Ji Yuxian hooked his lips and smiled, "Yes, it's a woman, then I'll just wait here!"

The word "woman" is especially pronounced by men, the nanny's heart skipped a beat, she got up and said with a smile, "I will serve you tea!"

In the inner room, he opened the medicine box and took out the silver needle, then turned his head and said, "Put him down, the old man will give him the needle to detoxify!"

"Okay!" Su Jiu supported Chang Huan's shoulders and wanted to put him on the bed, but Chang Huan held onto her arm tightly and refused to let go, murmuring in pain, "Boss, don't go, don't leave me!"

Su Jiu's heart ached, and she comforted her in a low voice, "I'm here, don't leave, you won't hurt after you lie down and detoxify!"

Chang Huan lay down obediently, but still held Su Jiu's hand and refused to let go.

The light of the silver needles was as cold as the moonlight, and they pierced Chang Huan's finger pulp, Taichong point, Shaofu point and other acupoints one by one.

But after a while, black blood oozes from the fingertips along the silver needle.

And the painful expression on Chang Huan's face gradually improved, and he stopped tossing and turning.

After a full incense stick, the blood oozing from his fingertips turned red. Old man Gu pulled out the silver needle, picked up the thread of flesh on his wrist, sprinkled some white powder on it, and wrapped it with white gauze .

When doing all this, old man Gu changed from his contempt just now, and his expression was extremely serious.

The flush on Chang Huan's face faded, turned pale, and fell asleep.

Old man Gu put away the silver needle, took out a white porcelain bottle from the medicine box, took out a red pill with a distressed face, and squeezed it tightly in his hand, "This medicine of mine is a good medicine for all kinds of poisons. begging!"

"A good antidote?" Su Jiu took it, stuffed it into Chang Huan's mouth, and looked up at the old man's medicine bottle, "Is one enough? Do you want a few more?"

After all, reach out and grab it.

Old man Gu avoided the girl's clutches, and guarded him in his arms, "I only have ten in this bottle!"

"Stingy!" Su Jiu snorted coldly, glanced out of the window suddenly, and shouted in shock, "Who is outside?"

The old man turned his head subconsciously, and then his hand was empty, the medicine bottle had been snatched by the girl.

"In case Chang Huan doesn't wake up tomorrow, I'll feed him a few more!" Su Jiu opened the lid and poured it into her hand.

Old man Gu went crazy, "You little girl, you are ungrateful and greedy, you dare to steal my medicine after I saved your man."

Su Jiu glanced at the lazy figure in the outer room, squinted her eyes and gave a sinister smile, and said in a low voice, "You guessed it, I am indeed not a good person! Put this medicine at my place first, and when Chang Huan is about to wake up, I will I'll save it for you, but if you say something you shouldn't say, old man, I'll take all the medicine, and I won't give you a single one!"

Her identity has been exposed by Ji Yuxian, but he probably still doesn't know that Chang Huan is a man, and if Chang Huan's man's identity is publicized, the whole mansion will explode.

The old man Gu's nose was snorting, and the tail of his eyes glanced at Ji Yuxian in the outer room. Knowing that this girl was afraid that he would reveal Chang Huan's identity as a man, she grinned, "If you are afraid that I will tell, then hurry up and tell me." Give me back the bottle!"

"Would you like to bet, if you say a word, I will send you to heaven!" Su Jiuyin smiled cruelly.

Old man Gu stared at her for a long while, "Okay, I won't tell you, return the medicine to me!"

"Keep your word?"

"Of course, this old man is a miracle doctor!"

Su Jiu returned the medicine bottle to him, and said with a smile, "Thank you for what happened today!"

Old man Gu curled his lips and snorted coldly, and walked out wrapped in the quilt he had when he came. Seeing Ji Yuxian outside, he snorted again, "Look at the good wife you married!"

Ji Yuxian pursed his lips and smiled, "I've wronged Gu Lao!"

Old man Gu is indeed Daliang's miracle doctor. At that time, Yu Xian's mother was seriously ill, and Ji Yuxian found half of Daliang country to invite him. Although he failed to cure Mrs. Ji's illness, he prolongs his life by five or six days against the sky. year.

Miracle Doctor Gu was unrestrained in his early years and caused a lot of love debts. Ji Yuxian spent a lot of money to settle his romantic account, and then kept him in the mansion for nearly ten years.

Now there is no trace of Miracle Doctor Gu in the rivers and lakes, only that he has lived in seclusion, and no one knows that he is actually in Ji's residence.

"Go back to sleep!" Old man Gu yawned and walked out wrapped in a quilt.

The nanny fetched water, wiped Chang Huan's face, Su Jiu went out of the inner room, sat down on the chair opposite Ji Yuxian, and said wearily, "It's all right, go back to sleep!"

"It's all right?" Ji Yuxian smiled, under the light, his eyes flickered, and he looked at Su Jiu shallowly, "Who poisoned you, have you found it?"

Su Jiu was startled, and turned her head suddenly.

Just now she had been worried about Chang Huan, but forgot the most important thing, how could Chang Huan be poisoned?
Although she didn't understand the twists and turns in the backyard, she was not stupid. She knew that the poison was aimed at her, but Chang Huan missed it.

The only difference in the meal they ate together at dinner was that she didn't drink the chicken soup.

The chicken soup is made by the nanny...

Su Jiu glanced sideways at the busy nanny in the inner room, frowning, and felt that it was the nanny who hurt her.

If the nanny hurt her, why wait until now.

"The women in the backyard of the mansion may seem weak, so don't pay attention to them, but they are more likely to hurt people than those swords you have encountered before. Madam, take care!" Ji Yuxian smiled with curved lips, and slowly got up and walked out.

Su Jiu regained consciousness in a daze, got up and said, "I will take care of Chang Huan tomorrow, so I won't go to your study!"

The handsome figure of the man Xinchang was surrounded by the beautiful moonlight, which was vague and noble. Ji Yuxian looked back and smiled, which was more scorching than the moonlight, "Okay, let Madam take a day off."

After all, he stepped out of the door.

Su Jiu stood there, drooping her eyes and pondering for a moment before turning around and walking into the inner room.

The nanny has already wiped off the sweat on his face and carefully covered him with a quilt.

Seeing Su Jiu come in, the nurse knelt on the ground with a plop, and said in a sad voice, "Miss, you gave Master Huan the chicken soup tonight, I know you will doubt me, but I swear on my life, I never did anything to hurt Miss !"

Su Jiu looked at the woman kneeling on the ground with no expression on her delicate face.

She had seen the humble and sincere expression of Tai Kuo Nai Niang, when she lied to the second wife, Xie Ying, and even Su Lin, she always looked humble and sincere.

The nanny was the one who survived among the women in the backyard. She had a delicate mind and was able to use both sides. It is not surprising that she cultivated a sophisticated and cunning heart.

But during this period of time, the nanny has been taking good care of her, and she has long regarded her as her own. Even though today's things are too strange, she still chooses to trust her intuition.

It's not because of her attitude, it's not because of what she swore, without conclusive evidence in front of her, she won't doubt her own people!
"I believe it's not you, get up!" Su Jiu said lightly.

The nanny knelt on the ground and did not move, "I will definitely find out the person who poisoned me, and investigate this matter to the bottom!"

She cooked this chicken soup in the big kitchen of the mansion, she left occasionally, people came and went in the kitchen, and people from various courtyards came in and out, there are really too many possibilities of who poisoned it.

Of course, Xie Ying was the most suspicious here.

Su Jiu stepped forward to help her up, and sneered, "These tricks are not as good as our bandits!"

At least they are fighting with open swords and sharp guns, and the most despicable tricks are despicable!
"Miss, I don't know the dirty thoughts in the backyard. This incident is also a lesson for us. I will definitely take precautions in the future." The nanny looked worried, and looked back at the sleeping Chang Huan, "Fortunately, Miss didn't drink that Chicken soup, Mr. Huan is fine."

Su Jiu nodded, "Even if we can't find out who did it this time, as long as this person is in the mansion, I will always find her out!"

"Yes, I will pay more attention!"

After tossing and tossing for a long time, it was almost dawn, the nanny put Su Jiu's coat on, "Miss didn't sleep all night, go to sleep on the bed outside for two hours, I'll just watch over Master Huan here!"

"No, you go to sleep, I'll take care of Chang Huan!" Su Jiu said.

Seeing Su Jiu's resolute attitude, the nurse had no choice but to nod, "I'll come as soon as the sun is up, and the young lady is also squinting at the bedside for a while."

"Do not worry!"

After the nanny left, Su Jiu sat by the bed, seeing that Chang Huan was sleeping soundly, she gradually became sleepy, and fell asleep on the side of the bed.

Here, Ji Yuxian returned to the Izumo Pavilion, suddenly stopped, and turned around, "The matter of tonight is publicized, and it is said that the young lady was almost poisoned by Shihuasan."

Jin Feng rolled his eyes and nodded knowingly, "Yes, this subordinate will do it now!"

In the early morning of the next day, news of someone being poisoned in Qifengyuan spread throughout the backyard.

Shihuasan, such insidious things are naturally heard of, and now someone uses it to poison the young lady of the Ji family!
When such a big thing happened, it was impossible for the second lady, as an elder, to pretend not to know. After being furious, she sent two nuns to search the courtyards!

Ren Zhier was talking about this with Xie Ying in Lianbo Garden,

"Sister, did you hear that the young lady's maid in Qifengyuan was poisoned by Shihuasan last night?"

Xie Ying drew her eyebrows in the mirror, and glanced at her when she heard the words, "What do you mean? Do you think I did it?"

Ren Zhi'er hurriedly denied it in panic, "How could my younger sister doubt my elder sister? I just want to ask my elder sister if she knows about this matter?"

"It's been uproarious since the morning, how could I not know?" Xie Yingmingyan's eyes were sharp, and her hand holding the Daibi tightened. She only hated how the poison would be drunk by a maid. It would be great if Su Yuejiu drank it.

"How could such a sinister thing appear in our Ji Mansion, it's really strange!" Ren Zhi'er took a bead flower and stuck it on Xie Ying's head, her half-drooped eyes sparkled.

"If you have the heart, you won't find anything!" Xie Ying snorted coldly.

"Who does my sister think will harm the young lady?" Ren Zhi'er asked casually.

"You don't really think it's me, do you?" Xie Ying raised her eyebrows and looked at Ren Zhi'er, "I'm not the only one in this house who doesn't like Su Yuejiu, what about you? Don't you envy Su Yuejiu?"

"My sister was joking. I don't like her because she offended my sister. I don't like her. I don't have much status in this mansion. What's the use of fighting for favor?" Ren Zhier hurriedly said.

"People's hearts are so far away, how would I know what you're thinking?" Xie Ying glanced and smiled, and just as she put down her pen and was about to get up, she heard a commotion in the yard outside.

The servant girl Shaoyao walked in quickly, and said with a blessing, "Second Young Madam, Second Madam sent people to search, and they have already entered the yard!"

With a "snap", Xie Ying patted Daibi on the dressing table into several sections, and sneered, "It seems that everyone really doubts me!"

After finishing speaking, he got up and walked out with a flick of his sleeves, and all the maids and mothers and Ren Zhi'er hurriedly followed behind.

In the courtyard, the two nuns serving the second wife in Jinglanyuan stood there, followed by four or five maidservants.

Xie Ying was wearing a water-red makeup dress with a peony nobile on her head. She was bright and flamboyant, and smiled slowly in front of the light, "The two mothers have worked hard, have you already checked it elsewhere?"

A little older, Nanny Chen stepped forward and said respectfully, "Let's start with the second young lady's Lianbo Garden. If there is any trouble, I will also look at the second young lady's Haihan!"

Xie Ying sneered, "This matter happened in Young Madam's Xifengyuan, if you don't check there, why should you check my yard first?"

This matter was spread in the mansion, and it was clearly telling everyone that it was poisoned by her!

She just had a good cough, and with a surge of blood, she covered her lips and coughed again. Shao Yao stood behind her and hurriedly stroked her back, "Second Young Madam, don't be angry, take care of yourself, we are not afraid of the shadow, let them check !"

Chen Momo followed suit, "Second Young Madam, calm down, this is the Second Madam's order, and the servants are also following orders!"

Xie Ying wrung the handkerchief tightly, and after a long while, sneered, "Yes, I am not afraid of the shadow, so if you want to check it, just check it!"

"Offended!" Nanny Chen lowered her head and said, then turned to the servant girl and said, "Every room must be searched carefully, no corners are allowed to be missed."

"Yes!" Several servant girls responded and left.

"Shaoyao!" Xie Ying said, "Go to my room and watch, don't let those rough people damage my things, I'm afraid they won't be able to pay for it!"

Shao Yao immediately nodded, "Yes!"

Nanny Chen's expression remained unchanged, she said with a light smile, "Don't blame the second young lady, the servants will leave immediately after checking."

Xie Ying sat in the flower hall, drank tea and calmed down, she polished her nails carefully, her face was dull, and there was no nervous expression on her face.

After a cup of tea, a little maid came in and said, "Go back to Mammy, the Second Young Madam's room has been checked, and nothing suspicious was found."

Xie Ying raised her head and glanced coldly, then sneered.

Nanny Chen said, "Okay, we'll go to another yard when they come back."

Afterwards, all the other maids also came back, but they also found nothing. Nanny Chen nodded and waited for Mammy Xu, who went with her, to come back and went to the next courtyard.

After a long while, Mother Chen got impatient and was about to send a maid to watch, when she heard the woman's crying and Mother Xu's scolding from outside.

Everyone was startled and stood up together.

At this moment, Nanny Xu had already walked in, holding a maid's clothes in one hand and a white paper bag in the other.

The little maid was crying and shrunk her shoulders, not daring to raise her head.

"What's going on?" Xie Ying asked in amazement.

Madam Xu only looked at Madam Chen, "I found this in this maidservant's room!"

After all, he handed over the paper bag in his hand.

Nanny Chen opened it in her hand, and saw that there was bright red powder inside. She pulled out the silver hairpin from her head and picked it up slightly, her face suddenly changed, "Stone flowers are scattered!"

"what?"

Everyone gasped, and took a step back involuntarily.

This kind of poison is simply distasteful to women.

Nanny Chen looked up at Xie Ying, her face was slightly cold, "What else can the Second Young Madam say?"

Xie Ying looked at the medicine bag in Nanny Chen's hand in shock, and shook her head in panic, "No, it's impossible!"

She staggered, grabbed the crying little maid, and shouted, "Liu'er, why do you have such a thing? Where did you come from?"

The girl named Liu'er knelt on the ground with a plop, and kowtowed, "The crime of the slave, the fault of the slave!"

"Second Young Madam, since we have found the things, let's go to see Second Madam!" Nanny Chen snorted coldly.

"No, it's not mine, and I didn't tell her to do it. I won't go!" Xie Ying's eyes widened, and she backed away again and again.

Ren Zhi'er stood aside, her eyes flickering, gloating at her misfortune.

She guessed that it was Xie Ying, a poisonous woman!
Liu'er knelt forward two steps, hugged Nanny Chen's leg, raised her head and cried, "It's none of the Second Young Madam's business, it's the slave who hates the Young Madam for insulting and beating our Second Young Madam, and deliberately broke the Second Young Madam's Madam's qin. The servant girl is jealous of the young lady, and secretly poisoned the master for injustice, and the second young lady doesn't even know about it."

Xie Ying was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, I don't care about my business at all, it's this lowly servant girl who decides on her own!"

Nanny Chen raised her eyebrows, turned her head and told a servant girl, "Go to Jinglan Garden and call Second Madam!"

"Yes!"

The little maid went away in response.

The room fell silent for a while, only Liu'er who was kneeling on the ground could be heard crying softly.

Xie Ying glanced at her coldly, hating her for being nosy and causing trouble for herself.

Ren Zhi'er helped Xie Ying to sit down, "Sister, don't be angry, it's because the servants are ignorant, and the second lady will make a clear decision when she comes."

But why is Xie Ying not angry? Even if the second wife believes this matter, what do others think?
The maid belonged to her, and she had a feud with Su Yuejiu, everyone would think that she asked the maid to do it, and finally let the maid take the blame for her.

Even if I jumped into the Yellow River this time, I can't clean it up!
After waiting for a while, I saw the second lady slowly entering the yard and walking towards the flower hall surrounded by several maids and wives.

Xie Ying immediately stood up to welcome her out, the smile on her face was a little more humble than usual, with a little grievance, "Second Madam, you must be the master of this concubine!"

The second lady was wearing a velvet cloak with dark golden silk patterns, she was graceful and luxurious, with a kind smile, she stroked the back of Xie Ying's hand, "Don't worry, I will definitely investigate the matter."

Chen Momo stepped forward, "Second Madam, this medicine was found in this maid's room!"

The second lady took a look, nodded slightly, then turned to look at the maid who was kneeling on the ground, "What's your name?"

"Slave, slave girl, Liu'er!" the little maid stammered without daring to raise her head.

"Is this stone flower powder yours?" The second lady's eyes were sharp.

"Yes"

"Who gave it to you?"

"No, no one gave it to the slave girl. The slave girl bought it from a drug dealer." Liu'er replied with a flustered face and lowered his head.

"Then why did you do this?" The second lady's voice was cold and pretentious, not angry but mighty, which could be heard throughout the flower hall.

Liu'er lowered his head even lower, his nose almost touched the ground, and said in a trembling voice, "It's the servant who is upset with the master and wants to take revenge on the young lady. It has nothing to do with the second young lady, and no one instigated the servant. .”

Xie Ying immediately said, "Second Madam, you heard, this matter really has nothing to do with my concubine."

The second lady nodded, "Liu'er, the servant girl, murdered the mistress and framed the master in an unrighteous manner. I will be punished thirty times with a stick and thrown out of the house."

Xie Ying sternly said, "Second Madam is too merciful, this kind of bitch who cheats the master should be killed!"

Liu'er collapsed on the ground, weeping and begging, grabbing Xie Ying's skirt, "Second Young Madam, I know I was wrong, and I won't dare anymore. I beg you to intercede on behalf of this servant. This is all for your sake." !"

Xie Ying took a step back immediately, and scolded, "Shut up! I didn't harm the Young Madam, it's your own decision, so what's none of my business?"

"The servant really made a big mistake because of the second young lady's grievance. The second young lady, master and servant, you can't ignore the servant! There is an old mother and a disabled brother in the servant's house. Once the servant dies, they will live too. It's over!" The little maid kowtowed to Xie Ying.

Xie Ying turned around without even looking at Liu'er.

The second lady sighed, "Those who recite the Buddha despise this most. Although this maid is hateful, she is also considered loyal to her master. Let her live, and as I said, she will be beaten thirty times and driven out of the house." !"

Xie Ying is so tough, but she just wants to get rid of Liu'er. Hearing what the second lady said at this time, it seems too unreasonable if she insists on beating Liu'er to death. After all, the maid is in her yard. It was indeed for her sake.

"Since the Second Madam said so, I will spare her life. It's just that such a vicious maid would never dare to use her again, so according to what the Second Madam said, she was beaten and thrown out of the house."

"Take him down!" The second lady turned to Nanny Chen and said.

Nanny Chen nodded, and asked the two maids to drag Liu'er down.

Liu'er cried out, "Thank you for your kindness, master, I know I was wrong, so I don't dare to do it anymore!"

Soon there was the sound of the wooden stick hitting the flesh and Liu'er's hissing begging for mercy from the yard. The sound was like a cat whose throat had been choked, desperate and shrill. The people in the flower hall listened and felt It was creepy, and no one dared to speak for a while.

It wasn't until the sound of hitting the board stopped and Liu'er, who had already been unconscious, was dragged down, that everyone heaved a sigh of relief without a trace.

"Now that it's been found out, I can also report to Yu Xian and the young lady! I hope this kind of thing won't happen again, otherwise the master and slave will be punished together!" The second lady said softly.

Xie Ying's face turned pale, and she lowered her head, "Yes, my concubine's discipline is not strict, and I voluntarily punished her for three months."

Ren Zhi'er curled her lips behind her. Could it be that Xie Ying is short of these dozens of taels of silver? This kind of punishment has no sincerity at all.

Seeing that Xie Ying had a good attitude of admitting her mistake, the second wife said in relief, "Ying'er is really reasonable, you don't have to blame yourself too much, it sounds like a servant is stupid and hurts the master!"

Xie Ying raised her arm and wiped the corners of her eyes, and said in a choked voice, "Second Madam is clear! With the words of Second Madam, I don't feel wronged! I also ask Second Madam to say something nice for my concubine in front of the young master."

"Okay, don't worry, you are not in good health and rest first! I will also tell Yu Xian about this!"

The second lady said something, and walked out with all the maids and women.

"This concubine is sending off the second lady!" Xie Yingfu said.

When the second lady walked away, Xie Ying no longer had the humble look on her face, and sat on the chair with her sleeves brushed, feeling her heart was holding her breath.

"Liu'er, that bitch, why didn't you beat her to death?"

Ren Zhi'er poured tea with her back to Xie Ying, and sneered when she heard this, why didn't she believe that a maid would dare to do such a thing?
Looking back, she already had a humble smile on her face, "Fortunately, the truth has been found out, and sister Qingbai has been returned. This kind of foolish and loyal slave should just be kicked out!"

Xie Ying didn't have any surprises. After this incident, the servants in the mansion didn't know how they would talk about her. More importantly, would Ji Yuxian believe that Liu'er did it by himself?
After the second lady went to the Izumo Pavilion to report the person who caught the poison to Ji Yuxian, she went to Qifengyuan in person to comfort Su Jiu.

After the second lady left, Su Jiu and the nanny returned to the bedroom, and saw that Chang Huan hadn't woken up yet.

"Miss, what do you think about this matter?" The nanny poured a cup of tea for Su Jiu and put it on the small mahogany table on the low couch.

Su Jiu sat cross-legged, lowered her head and gnawed at her fingers, thinking, "This matter is not that simple!"

At first she suspected that Xie Ying was the one who poisoned her, but now that the person who poisoned her was found out, the matter became even more confusing.

"According to the Second Madam, this Liu'er is just a low-level maid in Lianboyuan. She doesn't even have the chance to see Xie Ying. How could she be so loyal to Xie Ying? She dared to risk the death penalty to poison her! "Su Jiu said.

The nanny looked at Su Jiu with a smile, nodded and said, "That's true, this Liu'er is just a scapegoat, and there must be someone behind her behind the scenes."

"If Xie Ying ordered her to do it, she should have been hidden early in the morning. How could someone find out so easily? Xie Ying doesn't seem so stupid!" Su Jiu continued, and it was precisely because of this that she felt that this Things are not that simple.

"Miss's analysis is very good!" The nanny agreed, "The mastermind behind this matter may be Xie Ying, or it may be someone else, but Liu'er acted as a scapegoat, because some people don't want this matter to expand."

"Should I send someone to find that Liu'er and force her to tell the mastermind behind the scenes?" Su Jiu asked.

The nanny shook her head, "It's useless, that Liu'er was almost beaten to death, even when he was kicked out of the mansion, he gritted his teeth and didn't tell the person behind the scenes, which means that she must have something more important than life in the hands of that person, even if Miss There will be no results if you try to force her. Instead, it will be revealed that Miss is still secretly investigating this matter, and the other party will kill Liu'er to silence her."

Su Jiu rolled her eyes, raised her eyebrows and said, "Then let's stand still for the time being and catch big fish with a long line!"

Since Liu'er is involved with the person behind the scenes, he will definitely keep in touch in the future.

The nanny nodded, "That's right. Fortunately, after this time, no matter who the people behind the scenes are, they will restrain themselves a bit and won't do anything easily!"

Su Jiu's brows were clear, "I will never let her go!"

The nanny wiped Chang Huan's face with a handkerchief, "Looking at Master Huan like this, I guess he will sleep for a few more hours. I'll ask my servants to make some porridge for preparation."

"okay!"

Su Jiu didn't sleep well last night, and she was also a little sleepy now. After the nanny went out, she leaned Chang Huan on the bed, and fell asleep by herself.

The nanny cooked porridge and brought a bowl to Su Jiu. When she entered the door, she saw that Su Jiu was fast asleep on the bed, so she stepped back without disturbing her.

It was already afternoon when Chang Huan woke up, he opened his eyes and looked at the top of the bed, feeling dazed for a moment, his whole body seemed to be exhausted, and his lower abdomen throbbed with pain.

Hearing the slight breathing sound beside him, he turned his head slightly, and saw Su Jiu curled up beside her, sleeping soundly with her eyes closed.

The room was extremely quiet, the afternoon sun passed through the window, the winter sun was bright but soft, lightly sprinkled on the girl's delicate face, her long eyelashes trembled, her skin was fair, her lips were slightly parted, she was sleeping like a child.

Suddenly, Chang Huan remembered that when he first joined the Fulong Gang, he was a weak chicken who knew nothing. When he was bullied, it was Su Jiu who protected him.

It was the first time to participate in the gang test. More than 30 of them walked through the mountains and forests together. He was injured by a trap and his leg was injured. Others looked at him with a greedy and hungry look and wanted to eat him. , No one dared to take his idea anymore, and then walked with him on his back for two days and two nights to find the way out of the mountain forest.

It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, the mountains were covered with heavy snow, and there was nothing to eat. When she was hungry, Su Jiu stuffed a few mouthfuls of snow into her mouth, and then continued to walk forward with him on her back.

When they got out of the forest, the straw sandals on Su Jiu's feet had already been worn through, and the blood bubbles from the grinding had frozen into icicles.

After going back to the gang and settling him down, Su Jiu fell asleep and slept for a day and a night, and he guarded her for a day and a night without blinking.

At that time, Su was nine or eight years old, and he was ten.

……

Su Jiu turned over and struck Chang Huan's body with her arm. She woke up suddenly when she touched Chang Huan's body. She sat up in a "babble", stared at Chang Huan in a daze, and then grinned after a while, "Are you awake?"

Chang Huan narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I didn't wake up, I was woken up by your palm!"

Su Jiu smiled, stretched out her arms to hug Chang Huan, "Huan'er, you scared me to death!"

Chang Huan hugged her tightly, and his voice was soft after illness, "It's okay, my life is very hard, how could I die so easily!"

Su Jiu hurriedly got up and looked at him, "Does it still hurt?"

Chang Huan shook his head, "Boss won't hurt if you hug her!"

"Good boy!" Su Jiu stroked his head, "Are you hungry, I'll find you something to eat!"

After speaking, it seemed that they remembered that they were not in Yuhu Mountain now, and they didn't need to bother looking for food, as they could have it anytime.

"Look at me, I'm sleepy!" Su Jiu patted her head, got out of bed, put on her shoes and went out, "Nurse made porridge, I'll bring it to you!"

Chang Huan wanted to call her back, but seeing her eager pace, she still didn't speak, and lay back lazily, smelling the faint fragrance on the quilt, the corners of her lips pursed into a small smile.

After drinking the porridge, Chang Huan rested for a while, and looked at it at night with some energy.

Knowing that it was the servants in Lianbo Garden who poisoned him, Chang Huan frowned and said worriedly, "This time it didn't work, will someone hurt the boss again next time?"

On the one hand, I was glad that I drank the bowl of chicken soup by myself.

"From now on, let me eat all the boss's food first, and then give it to the boss!" Chang Huan suddenly thought of this idea.

"Stop making trouble, you can still follow me every step of the way!" Su Jiu peeled the melon seeds and stuffed them into Chang Huan's mouth, "Don't worry, we will be more vigilant in the future, and the other party won't be able to strike again!"

Chang Huan chewed the melon seeds, but there was still worry hidden between his brows.

At night, Chang Huan was not allowed to stay at Su Jiu's place to watch the night, and he was sent to sleep next door, while the nanny stayed and slept on the couch in the outer room.

One night without dreams, the next morning, when Su Jiu woke up, the sky was already bright. Looking at the morning light coming through the wooden window, Su Jiu squinted her eyes, and just about to sleep again, she suddenly remembered that she was going to Ji Yuxian today. Practicing calligraphy in the study room, she sat up abruptly, "Nurse, what time is it?"

"It's time, what's the matter?" The nanny ran over and asked.

"Late, late again!" Su Jiu put on her clothes indiscriminately, tucked her hair into the clothes and ran.

"Miss? Miss!" The nanny chased after her, "You haven't had breakfast yet!"

"Don't eat, let's eat together at noon, tell Chang Huan to rest more, I'll see him when I come back!" Su Jiu shouted, and she had already left the yard.

The nanny frowned in the back, she actually went to see her husband like this, even if it was fake, she didn't care so much about her image, she was really speechless to this aunt.

Su Jiu galloped all the way into the Izumo Pavilion, and broke into the study without letting the servants inform her.
