The cannon fodder original wife's bad story

Chapter 522

After saying this, he looked at Song Guanzhou who was smiling at him with his chin in his hand, "Madam, please be fair. Have I never caused any trouble?"

"... Chun Ge is excellent."

Song Guanzhou almost rolled his eyes. This kid was quite good at hitting the snake with a stick. But Yuyan heard her being called, and she, Chun Ge, and Old Madam Qin said goodbye to Song Guanzhou.

"I'll be back soon."

The old lady of the Huang family sincerely admired, "Young couples are companions for old age. Seeing how loving Guanzhou and Silang are, I can't wait to marry my third son a daughter-in-law."

As lunch was over, many guests left.

At the dinner, Mu Yunzhi also sat at the main table. She felt warmer when she heard her aunt was so supportive of her. After today's birthday banquet, her status would be set in stone, and her cousin would definitely not be able to change his mind.

"Don't worry, Auntie. Sister Yunzhi has a gentle temperament, and the Third Young Master is elegant and easy-going. The two of them will surely be a loving couple in harmony."

"Don't talk about others, it would be great if they could be half as good as you and Shiro."

Anyone with eyes could see that Pei An, the fourth son of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, dotes on his wife in a way that is probably rare in history. He asked the servant to come in and called out Song Guanzhou's personal maid. Who could he ask about, wasn't the young madam?

I can’t envy you enough!

Song Guanzhou shook his head and laughed, "Don't treat me like my wife and I. Aunt and aunt only look at us when we are harmonious. There is no couple that doesn't quarrel. When we quarrel, it also gives my sisters-in-law a headache."

"Si Lang is so important to you, yet you still argue with him? You are just a little too impatient and hasty."

Old Madam Qin patted her hand and said this. Song Guanzhou smiled and nodded, "Aunt knows my bad temper, but everyone is born with a bad temper. Now I want to change it, but it's not easy."

Some people envy her, but some people think of the young lady who looks like a beauty in a painting, and think of her now having no children. They think that it is because the old lady of the mansion does not care about things now and is devoted to vegetarianism and Buddhists, otherwise she would not allow her daughter-in-law to be like this...

Outside, Yuyan was standing in front of Pei An and told him everything.

"I have already received the gift of apology sent by the eldest lady, and it has not passed through the hands of the young lady. As for food and drink, the young lady has been cautious, and the fourth young master can rest assured."

Pei An felt relieved after hearing this.

Yuyan added, "Panxi is also with the wife of the eldest young master of the Jin family. I and Jindie will stay by her side, so nothing will happen."

As expected, she came from the palace. Even though she was not the Crown Princess's personal maid, she had thought of everything.

Yuyan gave a general explanation before entering the room, and asked Aru to get the jewelry that Song Guanzhou had changed.

Huang Zhi also came over to greet Pei An to come in, "Xi Hui hasn't come back yet, I'll wait for him for a while, Sanlang, don't worry, we'll be here soon."

Just as he finished speaking, the second manager of the Huang family came trotting in.

When he saw Huang Zhi, he just called out "Third Young Master", and then he looked at Pei An who was stunned, and he didn't say the rest of the words. Huang Zhi saw this and frowned and asked, "Just say it, this is the Fourth Young Master, not an outsider."

Those who hesitate are suspicious.

After thinking for a while, the steward walked up to her and whispered, "Miss Baoyue and the two maids drank tea from our house. Now she has severe abdominal pain. I have called a doctor and he is inducing vomiting."

what?

Huang Zhi's face was full of seriousness. "Tell me what's going on?"

The steward touched the sweat on his forehead and said, "I asked the maid next to Miss Baoyue, and she said that Miss Baoyue asked for tea, and the kitchen brought it over. Miss Baoyue took a sip and spit it out, saying that the tea was not fresh. She and the two maids in front had been following for a day and were very thirsty, so they simply shared the tea with the maids of the other maids. But they ate too much, and soon they covered their stomachs and cried out in pain..."

Pei An frowned when he heard this, "Miss Baoyue is my friend. Sanlang and I will go and take a look."

After that, Huang Zhi left Chun Ge to wait for Qin Qingdong. He nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look. Why is he feeling uncomfortable in his stomach for no reason..."

"If the tea is not fresh, it wouldn't be so serious. Let's go and take a look."

Needless to say, Pei An already had a vague guess in his mind - poisoning. Without evidence, he didn't want to speculate too much, so he could only follow to find out.

They arrived at the yard not far from the kitchen. Although it was remote, it was the place for artists such as Zhang Purang and Zhu Baoyue to rest today. There were quite a few people gathered there with heavy expressions.

Huang Zhi felt uneasy when he saw this.

When the onlookers saw the master's family coming, they quickly made way for them. The door was ajar and they couldn't see clearly inside. Huang Zhi was about to ask for clarification when the doctor came out. The second steward hurried forward and said, "Doctor Lin, this is the third son of our mansion, and this is the fourth son of the Zhenguogong Mansion."

Doctor Lin, carrying his medicine box, bowed to Huang Zhi and Pei An and said, "Gentlemen, may I have a word with you?"

Huang Zhi agreed.

The second steward immediately led a few people out of the courtyard and came to the guest room next door. Before Huang Zhi could ask, Doctor Lin said calmly, "After the two little maids induced vomiting, their minds became much clearer. I prescribed two prescriptions of herbal medicine for protecting the liver and clearing the intestines. I have given them to the people in the mansion to boil. After an incense stick of food and food, they will be fine."

Huang Zhi bowed and asked anxiously, "Doctor Lin, please tell me what the reason is?"

"Poisoned."

Huang Zhi was so shocked that he slammed the table and stood up, "Poisoned?" It was his old father's birthday, and on a day like this, who wouldn't have the foresight to poison him?

Pei An felt very upset when he saw that he had guessed correctly.

"The teapot and tea set used by the maids, the snacks and fruits eaten today, and what the Second Steward could find, I have seen them all. The water, snacks and fruits, even the melon seeds, peanuts and candied fruits that the little maids secretly ate, I can't see anything unusual."

"Doesn't this poison enter through the mouth?"

Doctor Lin shook his head. "I don't understand it either. I checked the clothes and jewelry of the two maids and found nothing unusual. But judging by the toxicity and the bleeding from their eyes, ears, nose and throat, they must have been poisoned by the Cold and Heat Heart-breaking Powder."

After hearing these five words, Pei An could no longer remain silent.

"Cold and Heat Heart-breaking Powder? I've only heard of Heart-breaking Grass, but is it a kind?"

Doctor Lin stroked his white beard and said, "My fourth son, you don't know that Gelsemium elegans is indeed a poison, but in some places it is also a tonic. For example, in my hometown, in the Liaoqu area, people have eaten Gelsemium elegans since ancient times to dispel cold and heat and nourish the internal organs. But if you don't cook it properly, you will definitely be poisoned."

He took a breath and drank a sip of tea before continuing, "Gelsemium elegans is not uncommon. It can be found in many places in Dalong. But the most poisonous one is in Weicheng, downstream of Liaoqu. Weicheng is cold for three seasons a year, and snow falls on the autumnal equinox, but it is extremely hot in summer. The Gelsemium elegans produced here matures under the alternating cold and hot conditions, so we old doctors also call it cold and hot Gelsemium elegans."

"May I ask, Doctor Lin, which one is more toxic?"
