Hu Li shivered, "This soup is poisonous."
Hu Tang's head was sober, and he was not at all grateful for Jiang Rao's rescue of her sister just now. Instead, he stared at Jiang Rao coldly, "This soup was presented by your servants, why is it poisonous?"
Hu Tang ignored Mrs. Hu who was pulling her sleeve behind her and trying to make her shut up, and frowned at Jiang Rao, with a cold hint in his tone, "We can see a lot of ways to win people's hearts."
Tang is Tang from Ning'an Bo's Mansion, Jiang Rao is a girl from Ning'an Bo's Mansion, Hu Tang is confused about the situation in front of him.
Afraid of being tricked, he didn't dare to believe it. His tone was anxious, and it sounded a little provocative and menacing.
Jiang Rao ignored Hu Li and Hu Tang for now.
"Ming Shao, take this bowl of soup to the doctor and let him see what the ingredients are in the soup."
She has her priorities in mind, if there is a problem with the sweet soup, other dishes may not be good.
She took out her handkerchief from her sleeve, and handed it to Ming Shao, "Put this handkerchief on the bowl, don't worry, be careful. I don't know what the poison in the soup is yet, so don't let the soup get on your face." hands."
Immediately, someone was called to deal with the soup spilled on the ground, and inspect the dishes on this table.
There is no poison in the dishes, only in the sweet soup.
Jiang Rao glanced at several tables around, only Hu Li and Hu Tang had sweet soup in front of them.
It made her a little confused—
Did the person who arranged the sweet soup come for Hu Li and Hu Tang, or for her house
Or, kill two birds with one stone
Jiang Rao was in a state of confusion, but she didn't show it on her face. She quickly arranged everything before looking at the twin sisters of the Hu family.
"Tang's problem, after I find out, I will give the two girls an explanation."
Her voice was naturally soft and glutinous, but there was no flattery or flattery at all. She was neither humble nor overbearing, with a clear and crisp ending. She said to Hu Li: "I have ruined the girl's sweet soup. I have sent someone to tell the kitchen to make it up for you."
Jiang Rao didn't intend to stay for a long time, and saw that the two sisters, Hu Li and Hu Tang, were more impulsive, and they were annoyed, as if they still had something to say.
But they are about the same age as her, and their faces are very immature, like the kind of young tigers whose teeth have not yet grown in. They are fierce, but it is a pity that they are not weaned.
It's kinda cute.
It's a pity that they didn't treat her well. Her kindness to them started with etiquette and ended with etiquette, that's all.
And she didn't have time to pester them any longer.
Jiang Rao blinked.
Under the strong sunlight at noon, the cheeks looked extraordinarily white and soft, like cooked glutinous rice balls just fished out of hot water, making people want to poke them to see if they would sink in.
She looks soft and deceptive, but her eyelashes flutter like a small fan, and there is a bit of cunning in her clear and moist apricot eyes.
Jiang Rao looked directly at Mrs. Hu who was able to hold Hu Tang, "Ma'am."
Mrs. Hu saw a lot of secret affairs in the houses of rich people, and she felt that there was something hidden about this matter, and she didn't blame Jiang Rao for her gentle and considerate eyes.

Even, there is a slight gratitude.
Jiang Rao blessed her body, "Today's matter is due to poor hospitality at the house. My daughter will apologize to you on behalf of my parents. I want to go and see what's going on first. If there is any result, I will tell Madam later. .”
Mrs. Hu: "My good boy, go quickly."
Jiang Rao bent her lips and smiled, then turned towards Hu Li and Hu Tang, blessed her body lightly, turned around and left after exhausting all the etiquette.
Hu Li pursed her lips, "She smiled so beautifully at Mother, why didn't she smile when she looked at us?"
Hu Tang also pursed her lips, "She speaks softer to the servant girls than to us."
Mrs. Hu: "The girl rushed to rescue you, but you are lucky, don't thank you, don't say anything, and even suspect your benefactor."
"Still gentle... If I were her, I wouldn't be able to relieve my anger if I didn't splash that soup all over your faces! You should learn some etiquette and rules when you go out."
The twin sisters turned their heads, and the backs of their heads were directed at Mrs. Hu.
If you don't listen or don't listen, Tang Seng recites the scriptures.
Mrs. Hu: "..."
The two sisters were just monkeys without the golden hoops, muttering together.
Hu Tang: "Did I be too fierce just now?"
Hu Li: "It's true, I shouldn't be so fierce to such a beautiful girl."
Hu Tang: "But I thought she was trying to get close to us by using that heroic way of saving the beauty."
Hu Tang: "Ah, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts..."
Mrs. Hu twisted Hu Tang's ear and pulled her up, "No wonder I heard your tone was wrong just now... Hero saves the beauty, want to get close to you?"
Mrs. Hu is frail, with a gentle appearance who doesn't know how to curse.
She started to train her daughter, but she was unambiguous like a choking pepper, "How can she put gold on her face? Is she thinking that you two have no rules, or is she thinking that you two will climb trees?"
"She is about the same age as you two, and she can help her mother arrange a banquet. It's not like you. You don't know where you are fooling around all day long, and you are covered in dust."
Hu Tang escaped, covering his red ears, being rebellious by Mrs. Hu's training, and he was a little bit stubborn, "I and Li'er are such useless people, how can there be anyone who wants to harm us?"
Mrs. Hu gave her a blank look, "I do have self-knowledge."
The two daughters have brute strength, but their hearts are simple and upright, as stubborn as a mallet.
The mallet was also born by her, so I admit it.
Knowing that it would be useless to say more at this time, Mrs. Hu didn't explain much.
But she won't just trouble Jiang Rao to investigate alone, and she will definitely not forgive anyone who wants to harm her girl.
Mrs. Hu thought so, and knocked Hu Tang on the head with the force of a hammer, "If you make a mistake, remember to carry the thorns on your back and admit your mistake to the girl."
"..."
Hu Tang rubbed his ears with his hands and turned to rub his head.
If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't be stubborn.
…
Ming Shao found a doctor in the house, and the doctor tested the soup and found out that the medicine in the soup was a laxative.
The dose can cause infants and children to die, which shows the insidiousness of the mind of the person taking the drug.
Ming Shao hurried to find Jiang Rao with the news.
Jiang Rao is at the rockery in the backyard with Yu'er at the moment.
In front of her was a maid who was tied up with hemp rope.
Jiang Ping, who was called to help, also squatted aside.
Jiang Ping took the money bag Taro found from the maid. He held the money bag embroidered with water lotus, so heavy that his wrist fell down. Jiang Ping put the money bag on the ground, opened it and looked at it. Look, he said to Jiang Rao, "Girl, this is seventy taels of silver."
The monthly salary of a first-class maid is less than one tael.
An ordinary little maid, with seventy taels of silver on her body, is telling others clearly that she has something tricky about her.
Jiang Ping called Jiang Rao to the side, and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear: "When I caught her at the back door, I looked out and saw a carriage waiting for her. After interrogating him for a few words, he ran away."
"That servant girl is also very strict-mouthed, she doesn't take hard things, she can't find out no matter how much she asks." Jiang Ping wondered, "Is it because Da Furen is holding something against her?"
Jiang Rao called Yu'er over and asked, "Do you recognize her?"
"My servant recognizes this maid, her name is Yingyin, she is the maid next to the old lady." Yu'er hesitated for a while, and said: "She has a bad reputation, and her relationship with the uncle, the second master and the third master... can't be explained clearly. of… "
Jiang Rao understood the implication of Yu'er's words, and felt that her ears were a little dirty.
She turned her head and looked at the water lotus on the purse.
Some familiar.
Jiang Rao bit her lip, she vaguely thought of something, but she was not particularly sure.
Mrs. Liu liked lotus. Not only did the lotus pond in the mansion be filled with lotus flowers, but also lotus patterns were often seen on the hem of her clothes and skirts.
Jiang Rao thought for a long time, her long eyelashes fluttered, and a guess gradually formed in her heart.
What happened today has nothing to do with the two sisters of the Hu family.
It was Liu Shi who wanted to harm her mother.
She had a headache for a while.
Thinking of the experience of meeting that dead man in Ye City last time, she has experienced how difficult it is to get a cliché from someone else's mouth.
It is completely useless to deal with people who are not so upright with methods that are too upright.
Too honest to be bullied.
It is best to fight an eye for an eye.
She took a deep breath, walked slowly back to the side of the servant girl, condescendingly, sighed, turned her head and said to Jiang Ping and Yu'er: "She is so pitiful."
Neither Jiang Ping nor Yu'er understood what Jiang Rao meant, they looked at each other in bewilderment.
The servant girl looked up at Jiang Rao tremblingly.
Jiang Rao lowered her body and met the servant girl's gaze. Her eyes were full of sympathy and pity, "Who told me the news that you fled to the back door?"
The maid was trembling, her eyes were horrified, and she shook her head frantically.
"It's my aunt."
Jiang Rao stared at the maid and told a lie.
Her big, round eyes are as clear as washing, clean and beautiful.
It was the first time for her to use this method, and she had no idea, fearing that it would not work, she was still a little panicked, staring at the maid without blinking.
"Auntie asked you to deliver sweet soup, the person who wants to harm and get rid of is you."
She said seriously, "If you don't believe me, go to the back door and have a look. The carriage that I promised to pick you up is not here."
Since this servant girl is a stubborn one, she must find a way to pry her mouth open.
She had already decided in her heart that the mastermind behind the scenes was Liu Shi. When she said this, she didn't have much guilt. She turned to look at Jiang Ping, "Jiang Ping, take this maid to the back door and let her have a look."
The servant girl saw that the door was really empty, and there was no carriage that Mrs. Liu had promised, her knees softened and she almost fell to her knees.
Jiang Rao was really pitiful seeing her like this, but she helped Liu Shi to harm her mother, so she had to continue to scare her.
Sending Buddha to the west, bad things have to be done to the end, Jiang Rao felt very helpless, lowered her voice, and said quietly: "Helping others to harm others, you think you have found a shortcut for yourself to step on the road of prosperity, but you don't know it is for yourself. The coffin is finished."
Jiang Rao asked her in a cold voice, "Do you know that for poisoning General Hu's daughter and framing my mother, if the two crimes add up, death is inevitable?"
The servant girl was so frightened by Jiang Rao's words that she trembled like a sieve, she turned her head suddenly, burst into tears, and cried out, "Fourth Miss, it's the Da Furen who forced me! I say, I say everything."
…
Mrs. Liu had a good lunch in her courtyard, because she was in a good mood and had a great appetite, so she didn't even care about the anger she received in the morning.
Just looking at the yard, the person her husband arranged to watch her was still there, Liu's eyes were a little contemptuous.
If she hadn't carefully arranged and only counted on that useless man, she might have given up the uncle's house after so many years of hard work to the Sifang family.
Mrs. Liu waited for the commotion at the banquet in the front hall, but she just waited and waited, but she couldn't wait for anyone to report the news, and it was still calm.
Sweat dripped from Liu's forehead unavoidably, and he felt something was wrong in his heart.
He ordered the personal servant girl to go out and see what happened outside.
In this impatience, the full meal from lunch was piled up in his stomach like a stone, and Liu Shi was so uncomfortable that he took a few mouthfuls of tea.
Three cups of tea time passed by in a flash.
Liu's personal servant girl came back at this time.
She looked horrified, stumbled, knocked open the door, and hurriedly opened the curtain to come in, "Ma'am."
Liu Shi looked at her close servant girl, tensed her fingers, her gaze was full of anticipation, wanting to hear the news that Hu Li and Hu Tang had an accident, and the guarding Hu family ruined the banquet.
But she saw the servant girl jumping in front of her, knelt straight down, and said: "Today's business failed, Yingyin has been arrested."
Liu's hands trembled, hot tea splashed all over her body, "How could she?"
The personal servant girl trembled her lips and said she didn't know, and she also told Mrs. Liu that the coachman had disappeared.
She was obviously a little scared, looking into Liu Shi's eyes, her pupils reflected fear, "Ma'am, if Yingyin gets involved in this matter, what should I do?"
Liu's heart was flustered and resentful, but she clenched her fists, forced herself to calm down, and said in a low voice: "It's okay, even if this matter doesn't work out, that bitch maidservant has a reason to pinch in my hand, and she is determined not to tell what happened today. Come out, you'll be fine."
…
On the other side, Yingyin knelt in front of Jiang Rao, and said in a sobbing voice: "The life of a servant is hard. When she was serving in the study, she was raped and raped several times by the uncle. Once she was caught by the eldest lady, and the eldest lady used it as a threat. It is said that if the servant girl does not help her, she will strip the servant girl of her clothes, lock the servant girl into a pig cage and drown her in the river, and let the servant girl be reborn as an animal in the next life. There is no way for the servant girl, there is no way for the servant girl!"
She cried with tears and looked very pitiful, "I don't know that Mrs. Liu is so vicious, but she uses this trick of killing two birds with one stone, trying to get rid of the slaves and the fourth madam at the same time."
Maybe it's because she has faced Rong Ting's disaster-like face too many times, the top-notch beauty catches her eyes, and everything else becomes a floating cloud that doesn't catch her eyes.
Jiang Rao was not intimidated by Yingyin's tears at all.
She heard that the servant girl didn't mention the seventy taels of silver, nor did she mention the benefits given to her by the Liu family, so she probably knew in her heart that what she said was half true and half false, and she was beautifying herself.
It's a poor man who can't help himself, but there are also hateful places.
Her gaze was calm without any ripples, and she said, "Speak these words clearly in front of my grandfather in a while."
The light at noon suddenly dimmed, and occasionally dark clouds drifted, briefly covering the red sun in the sky.
Uncle Ning's mansion has changed.
…
Rong Ting's eyes were deep, thinking about the scene where Jiang Rao was talking happily with Hu Li Hutang at the moment.
When I first heard it, it was just a little displeasure, but with Jiang Rao by his side, it was as if a wild beast had been appeased, and the irritable temper could still be suppressed, the displeasure in my heart was not even noticed by him at that time arrive.
Now that he had been away from her for only an hour, there was gloom in his pupils, and the accumulated coldness grew more and more.
The darkening sky cast shadows on his broad shoulders, and the hem of his black clothes was blown wildly by the wind.
Huai Qing came back from the outside at this time, bent down and whispered in Rong Ting's ear: "Your Highness, please ask the servant girl in the mansion to find out, Miss Jiang is not being made things difficult by General Hu's two daughters, it's just..."
Rong Ting put the chopsticks on the table, his gaze turned cold, "Just what?"
