Alai was startled and asked nonchalantly: "Here, is there anything added to this soup?"
Wen Qingzhu looked at Ah Qi with a smile: "You have to ask your good cousin. Lu Tao, let her speak."
After receiving the order, Lu Tao pulled off the rag from Xiao Cui's mouth.
Xiao Cui immediately cried and kowtowed, and hurriedly explained: "Miss Seventh! I don't know anything! I don't know anything! Please Miss Seven, please let me go!"
"You don't know anything?" Wen Qingzhu curled his lips and showed an unpredictable smile.
Looking at the cup of stew, Wen Qingzhu poured out a bowl leisurely, then stood up and walked to the two people.
"Who is lying?" Wen Qingzhu asked with a smile, but his eyes glanced at A Qi.
Xiaocui looked at the soup in her hand and was immediately frightened. She hurriedly said: "It's a slave! It's a slave! I don't care about Ah Qi's business! Please Miss Qi, please let Ah Qi go! He is innocent!"
When Ah Qi heard this, he knew something was wrong, and immediately kowtowed and begged for mercy: "Please Miss Qi, please let my cousin go, I am willing to bear all the consequences!"
"Oh? Are you willing to never have children for the rest of your life?" Wen Qingzhu raised his eyebrows. This pair of siblings have a deep love for each other.
Upon hearing this, Aqi's back stiffened, as if he were in an ice cellar.
He murmured to himself: "You, don't you admire the Tenth Young Master and want to be the Tenth Young Master's wife? Why, how..."
"Xiao Cui, if you confess honestly, I will spare your life. If you don't, your cousin will drink this bowl of soup for you." Wen Qingzhu's eyes suddenly turned cold.
Xiaocui looked at Wen Qingzhu, then at Aqi, thinking of Aunt Wu's methods, and finally lowered her head: "I don't know anything! I don't know anything!"
"Lv Tao! Feed this bowl of soup!" Wen Qingzhu walked up to Xiao Cui with his eyes crossed.
Lu Tao nodded, understanding what Wen Qingzhu meant. He stepped forward and grabbed Xiao Cui's hair, forcing her to raise her head, and opened Xiao Cui's chin with his other hand.
Wen Qingzhu poured the bowl down and poured it all into Xiaocui's throat.
Xiaocui's eyes widened in fear and she fell to the ground, her face flushed, and her whole body felt hot and cold.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, Xiao Cui screamed unbearably, and Lu Tao promptly blocked her mouth.
Only then did Ah Qi react, kowtow and beg for mercy: "Please Miss Qi, please let my cousin go! Please Miss Qi!"
Wen Qingzhu was indifferent and looked at the struggling Xiao Cui quietly.
After a while, she called Lu Tao over and whispered a few words.
Lu Tao nodded and left the darkroom.
Two quarters of an hour later, Lu Tao came back, holding two porcelain bottles in his hands.
"This is your choice, don't blame me for not giving you a chance." After Wen Qingzhu finished speaking, he motioned to Lu Tao with his eyes.
Lu Tao took out one pill each, placed it in his hand, and stood in front of Xiao Cui.
After the effects of the medicine wore off, Xiaocui lay down exhausted, but her eyes kept staring at Aqi.
Wen Qingzhu's heart moved slightly, and he suddenly said to Ah Qi: "Don't worry, although you are an accomplice, you are just being used. After all, you have served the young master for so many years, and you have worked hard without any credit. I will arrange for you to get married and have children when the time comes. of."
Ah Qi opened his mouth wide, wanting to say something, but unfortunately he didn't say a word for a long time.
On the other hand, Xiao Cui next to him turned red after hearing this and struggled desperately.
Ah Qi was completely disappointed. He kowtowed as if he was resigned to his fate: "Thank you, Miss Seven."
Seeing Aqi like this, Xiaocui banged her head on the floor desperately.
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways and said with a smile, "Do you want to wish your cousin a blessing?"
After signaling to Lu Tao, Xiao Cui was finally able to speak.
She opened her mouth, gasped and said to Wen Qingzhu: "Slave, slave, tell me everything!"
…
As soon as he went out, Wen Mingxuan came up to him and said eagerly: "Sister, he, they..."
Before he finished speaking, Aqi helped Xiaocui and followed him out.
Wen Mingxuan glanced at Ah Qi, and he seemed to be fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Wen Qingzhu sighed in her heart, knowing that Wen Mingxuan had better remember A Qi.
So he waved his hands and said, "Go out and talk."
Wen Qingzhu briefly explained the cause and effect of the matter.
After hearing this, Wen Mingxuan was startled, and then whispered: "Why did my aunt want to harm me?"
Wen Qingzhu felt a little distressed and touched his head: "Don't worry, my sister is here and I will protect you!"
Wen Mingxuan nodded obediently.
Then, Wen Qingzhu carefully inspected Wen Mingxuan's residence and removed all incense and suspicious items.
Finally, she looked at Wen Mingxuan tenderly: "From now on, you can take Ah Lai directly to Manager Tian, and don't get past that Aunt Xin, do you understand?"
Wen Mingxuan nodded and took the banknote from Wen Qingzhu.
After giving instructions, Wen Qingzhu took Lu Tao back to the east courtyard.
After sitting down, Wen Qingzhu began to prescribe medicine.
Wen Mingxuan is still young now, so if he is properly cared for, there will be no big problem.
It's just that this time Wu didn't do anything obvious. She directly put the evidence, and Wen Shuquan might not believe her.
"Mother Ye, how is your account review going?" Wen Qingzhu looked up at Mother Ye next to him and asked.
Mother Ye looked solemn, put down the account book in her hand, shook her head and said: "Miss, except for Madam's dowry list, our East Hospital's accounts in the past two years are completely wrong."
"Tell me." Wen Qingzhu briefly read it before and felt confident.
Mother Ye explained all the accounting issues, and also mentioned two villages in the suburbs of Beijing and three shops in the west of the city.
"These five places have not sent new accounts for almost a year. It stands to reason that the accounts will be sent in three months. Zhuangzi is okay. This shop..."
Mother Ye didn't say anything more, but Wen Qingzhu already understood.
Just as the two of them were saying this, Jasmine outside the door reported: "Miss, Miss Twelve is here."
What is Wen Qingmei doing
Wen Qingzhu was confused, but after thinking about it, he put away his things, got up and followed Jasmine to the front hall.
As soon as he walked in, Wen Qingzhu saw Wen Qingmei getting up.
Today, Wen Qingmei is wearing a lotus-colored brocade dress embroidered with plum blossom branches. She has a pair of tasseled gold hairpins on her hair. She has black eyebrows and red lips. She looks three parts delicate and one part dignified.
Seeing her dressed up so exquisitely, Wen Qingzhu's lips curled up. It seemed that Aunt Yue was having a good time recently.
"I've met Seventh Sister. Qingmei didn't disturb Seventh Sister, right?" Wen Qingmei had a gentle voice, was petite, and looked kind and innocent.
Wen Qingzhu raised his hand: "Sit down, sister Twelve, come here now, but what's the matter?"
Seeing the smile on her face, Wen Qingmei thought about her aunt's instructions and asked the maid behind her to bring a brocade box.
"Xiao Xing, open the box."
The maid Xiao Xing opened the lid of the box as instructed, and there was a mutton-fat white hosta placed on the green brocade.
