The Village Doctress Chapter 198: Hongmen Banquet

Ms. Li's guess is right, the grandma of the Zhou family really came to check on her.

Early this morning, the servants in the mansion heard the rumors about the fourth son raising a foreign room.

It is said that there are noses and eyes, as if someone saw it in person.

For example, the outhouse raised by the fourth young master of the Zhou family has a great background, and is the concubine daughter of a second-rank official in the capital. What worries the Zhou family is that they plan to win over that second-rank official, plan to quietly kill the fourth young lady who is pregnant and about to give birth, and move places for the outer room and her son...

These rumors were spread all over Qinglian County as if they had grown wings overnight, and the old lady threw down several tea sets in anger.

In just one morning, the old lady's mouth was full of blisters, and she severely scolded her, the person who presided over the feed in the backyard.

Grandma Zhou endured her grievances and tried to find a way with the old lady, but there was nothing she could do.

The main thing is, I can't figure it out even if I want to break my head. How did the matter with the fourth child just happen?

It is impossible for the Zhou Mansion to spread the word. She manages the Zhou Mansion like an iron bucket. Even if there are slaves who want to spread the word, it is impossible, because the old lady ordered the old lady to hide the matter of the fourth child when it happened in the Zhou family. Seriously, the maidservant knows very little about it.

In addition to the masters of the Zhou Mansion, Mama Ma and Mama Cheng beside the old lady know, right?

Who spread the word?

But the old lady suspected that it was the little uncle and wife of the Li family who did it, and said that it was not such a coincidence that the second foolish servant girl next to the little uncle and wife of the Li family went out of Zhou Mansion, and rumors arose early this morning.

Let her come and test the Li family's uncle and wife and that second foolish maidservant.

Mrs. Li knew that the grandma of the Zhou family was someone who would go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. She heard this and said in surprise: "How can it be like that? The old lady is too fussy. Whoever is in charge can't do more." What about omissions? I am also a member of the official family, and I know the hard work of the official family, so grandma must not take it to heart."

In fact, when calm prevailed again, Mrs. Li's mouth was very sharp, and her repeated cutting and hitting words made Grandma Zhou froze again.

This is insinuating that her official family is unfavorable, has neglected relatives, scolded the old lady, and even provoked the relationship between her and the old lady's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

The grandma of the Zhou family believed that Mrs. Li was responsible for those rumors, so she raised her eyebrows.

Ms. Li said cheerfully: "Oh, my siblings are really blessed. Seeing that the old lady's rewards are flowing into my sister-in-law's yard, but her old man's warehouse is going to be emptied! Don't spoil my sister-in-law too much, and share some with the other grandmas in the house!"

Ms. Li's seemingly modest words are actually piercing the heart of the grandma of the Zhou family, or saying that stupid people have stupid blessings?

This fourth younger sibling who does not eat fireworks has been favored since she married in. Later, the fourth brother hooked up with that outside room. For the sake of the Zhou family's future, it is really a feat to continue to spoil that Li family. All the power of the government to spoil it!

If there is something delicious and useful, I must think of her first. Those old pieces and expensive jewelry handed down by the ancestors of the Zhou family are also sent to the Li family's yard, like other Zhou family members. Daughters-in-law are all decorations.

So what if you are not reconciled?

It's so easy, now it's time to get things done, the matter of the fourth child has been spread, and now it is rumored that the Zhou family is going to kill Li Shi and her child to move the outer room of the senior official's father, so The more critical it is, the less accidents will happen to Li Shi and her children!

The doctors who treated Li in the past were all fools. Who cares if she lives or dies? The midwife finds out that her fetal position is going to be dystocia, who among the masters of the Zhou family is not happy?

But it can't be done now, Li Shi and her child must be kept!

Otherwise, the Zhou family will kill Li Shi to make way for the outer room. With such an ugly reputation, the Zhou family will be finished...

Grandma Zhou's eyes flickered again and again, her forehead hurt suddenly, how can she clean up this mess?

If I had known that something so irresistible had happened at the last moment, I shouldn't have listened to the old lady's intention to make Li's fetal position incorrect...

"Ahem..." Grandma Zhou coughed a few times, put on a smiling face and said, "This is all as it should be. Among the sisters-in-law of this generation, the fourth sibling is the youngest. The old lady hurts too much." She deserves it at all."

As soon as the words were finished, the grandma of the Zhou family shifted her gaze to Lin Fufu who was curiously looking at the little maid who was carrying all kinds of good things.

She waved at Lin Fufu with a smile, "Good boy, come here."

Lin Fufu glanced at her, smiled and walked to Grandma Zhou, "Grandma, are you giving me something to eat today?"

If it had been yesterday, Grandma Zhou would have jumped to give her a slap.

But now she won't be like this anymore. She carefully looked into Lin Fufu's eyes, and after confirming that her eyes didn't dodge at all, she looked at Mrs. Li and smiled, "This girl, why can't she forget to eat alone?"

Madam Li also laughed, and said with a loving face: "Isn't it? Don't children just want to eat one?"

"My uncle and wife are really kind people." Grandma Zhou smiled deeper, but the smile didn't reach her eyes at all.

Madam Li also started a fight with her, and said with a smile: "Our family adheres to the family motto and should be more lenient towards others. Besides, my family has a simple population, so there is no need for two women and a few girls to accompany me." Too harsh on them!"

"Sure enough, it is the family tradition of the Xinglin family." The grandma of the Zhou family praised against her will, but then looked at Lin Fufu and asked, "Good boy, tell me that you bought everything yesterday. What did you eat? Let me see what you like, so I can make it for you in the big kitchen?"

After hearing her clumsy words of coaxing children, Lin Fufu despised this shrewd Grandma Zhou in his heart.

So she deliberately angered her, "Grandma, what are you talking about, let me tell you directly, I like pea yellow, kidney bean cake, and peanut cake."

Want to talk to me? There are no doors!

After Grandma Zhou heard her words, her forehead twitched in anger, her eyeballs rolled up, and she almost fainted from anger.

"Oh, what's wrong with Grandma, why are you rolling your eyes?" Lin Fufu shouted.

Grandma Zhou took a deep breath, really wishing she could just pass out from anger, so that the old lady can't come and force her to do such a thankless thing, right?

But she can't be dizzy, so she held back her composure, Grandma Zhou quickly waved her hands and said, "I'm fine, why are you so careless, child?"

Ms. Li interjected, "I told Grandma that this child is innocent."

Grandma Zhou's eyebrows twitched: "I..."

It was speechless.

The grandma of the Zhou family asked a few more questions openly and secretly, but Lin Fufu and Mrs. Li teamed up to distract them. The grandma of the Zhou family was so angry that she was heartbroken, but there was nothing she could do.

She dragged her heavy body and went to the inner room of Mrs. Zhou's old lady with a gray face.

The old lady of the Zhou family is a kind-hearted old lady, who would have thought that she would be so cruel just by looking at her face?

"You're here, how are you doing?" Mrs. Zhou sat on the kang with a sullen old face, looking at Grandma Zhou coldly.

Grandma Zhou shook her head.

"It's useless! You can't tell me what to say? What else can you do? Don't you want to care about this?" Mrs. Zhou suddenly stood up from the kang, condescending Grandma Zhou asked.

Grandma Zhou couldn’t express her suffering, so she could only accompany her carefully and said: “Mother, don’t worry, according to my daughter-in-law, it is rumored that the matter has nothing to do with the Li family’s uncle and wife. Yes, besides knowing whether to eat or not, what can she do?"

"Hmph, the more this is the case, the more problems there will be!" Mrs. Zhou snorted coldly, then sneered and said, "Boss daughter-in-law, are you really not able to take care of this? If it doesn't work, tell me as soon as possible." Come out, I will let the third daughter-in-law take care of it!"

Grandma Zhou's face turned pale. The third daughter-in-law had been fighting with her for half her life. It was not good for the old lady to choose the third daughter-in-law. Would she really want to **** her off?

"But...but mother, even if it was the little uncle and wife of the Li family, how did she know about it?" Grandma Zhou asked this question again, and she and Mrs. Zhou did the same thing earlier. Said, but Mrs. Zhou decided that it was that woman.

The old lady of the Zhou family sneered again, "You ask me, who am I? So I asked you to check, but you couldn't find anything!"

Grandma Zhou said: "Mom, now that this matter has come out, it's useless for us to find out who it is, we still have to find a way to deal with it."

The old lady of the Zhou family was actually helpless, so she forced the grandma of the Zhou family to investigate and solve the matter.

Seeing the eldest daughter-in-law mentioning this issue again, she said angrily, "Don't just talk about it, but talk about how to solve this matter?"

Facing her mother-in-law's domineering tone, Grandma Zhou really wanted to turn around and leave, but she couldn't.

Because the old four's mess happened, but all the men of the Zhou family followed him, so it's not about Zhou Laosi alone, but about the whole Zhou family.

Now the old lady of the Zhou family was confused a few years ago. The affairs of the Zhou family are decided by this seemingly kind-hearted old lady who is actually kind-hearted. what else can we do?

The grandma of the Zhou family closed her eyes, and then, as if she had made up her mind, she looked deeply at the old lady Zhou: "Mother, in my opinion, the matter in the outer room is easy to solve."

She made a neck-slicing motion.

Madam Zhou sneered: "You know her identity, how dare you take her life? What's more, she gave me two big fat grandchildren, exactly the same big fat grandsons!"

Grandma Zhou is speechless, isn't the old lady in a daze? Do you still think about the wealth of those charming eyes?

Don't she know that since the fourth child's scandal happened, sooner or later the scandal will reach the ears of the old man of the Li family?

The one who kept this matter secret before was not afraid of the old man of the Li family, nor of the Li family.

But now that the Zhou family's faults are known to the family, can the Li family forgive the Zhou family?

You know, before the Zhou family got close to that high-ranking official, the Zhou family might not necessarily be the opponent of the Li family!

"Madam, don't move, but the most important thing right now is to keep Mrs. Li. Even if Mrs. Li really can't keep her, at least she must keep the child in her belly!" Grandma Zhou took a deep breath and said softly Said: "Otherwise, the Zhou family will really be scolded by poking their spines!"

"Stupid woman, that's all you can think of?" The old lady of Zhou's family cast a mocking glance at the elder daughter-in-law, her eyes were full of disappointment, and then she frowned, "The matter about the fourth child is ours. The fastest opportunity for my family to soar into the sky, I will never let anyone interfere with this matter! Not even the Li family!"

Grandma Zhou is speechless, the old lady is so lonely, what can she say?

Old lady Zhou suddenly laughed strangely, looked at Grandma Zhou and asked, "Eldest daughter-in-law, do you know why I didn't think of a way to send her back on the day my uncle and wife of the Li family came?"

"My daughter-in-law is stupid, please let me know." Grandma Zhou immediately said respectfully.

Actually speaking, although my mother-in-law is a bit ruthless, this old lady is really smart. She will never be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with her in this life, so this is why the old lady gave all the rewards to her. Reasons that can still suppress her.

The old lady Zhou glanced at Grandma Zhou with disdain, and raised her head arrogantly, "I have already made two-handed preparations. If something really happens, then the little uncle and wife of the Li family will be the best scapegoat! Heh heh ...Sister-in-law harming sister-in-law, this drama is really unexpected, my wife, I still want to find Mr. Li! Let him accompany me to a good daughter-in-law and a fat grandson!"

After hearing what the old lady of the Zhou family said, Grandma Zhou trembled a few times in fright, and instantly felt a chill all over her body, it was so cold to the bone!

How can the old lady be so cruel...

Grandma Zhou looked at the old lady with fear in her eyes, as if she was the one the old lady wanted to plot against.

Old lady Zhou looked down upon her eldest daughter-in-law who seemed to be stupefied with fright, so she scolded mercilessly, "Look at your talent, what's the point of such a small trick? In the future, when our Zhou family soars to the foot of the imperial city, is this what you are going to do?"

Grandma Zhou's heart shuddered, and she was irritated by the words "at the foot of the imperial city".

At this time, the old lady's method is undoubtedly the best!

"I know mother, what should I do about this matter?"

Seeing that the eldest daughter-in-law was still saved, Mrs. Zhou nodded, seeing that her expression became gentler, then sat cross-legged on the kang again, and said lightly: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I will Arranged."

This is distrust of her, and Grandma Zhou's body froze.

But Mrs. Zhou has already waved her hand impatiently at Grandma Zhou, and said, "Okay, go get busy, don't show any expressions, and entertain Mrs. Li's uncle well."

Since the grandma of the Zhou family left with a gray face, Lin Fufu's heart has been tensed. She knows that at this point, the Zhou family has only two choices.

One is to smooth out the incident in the outer room on Thursday, which may be to kill people.

There is another one, which is still to kill people, but to kill the people from their Li family, and then kill the sister-in-law of the Li family, and then report to the official, saying that Mrs. Li had a conflict with the sister-in-law and killed the sister-in-law by mistake, leaving a dead body Two lives.

Then the murderer was afraid and committed suicide himself...

The latter one is extremely vicious, even if someone suspects it, and the rumors are ugly, as long as the Zhou family is impeccable, and they have a good relationship with the parents and officials in Qinglian County, they can almost certainly be convicted of suicide.

In the face of evidence, no amount of rumors will stop one day, and it will have no effect on the Zhou family for a long time.

However, the Zhou family must have never thought that they had already written to the old man of the Li family, so with this variable, it is easy to say.

Lin Fufu decided to act by ear.

Once she found out that the Zhou family had plans to kill people, she would go all out to let the Zhou family taste her power.

Of course it is impossible for her to get out of the Zhou Mansion now, but outsiders can still sneak in.

For example, the people Liu Qin found.

It's time for lunch again. This time, the grandma of the Zhou family personally took the meal with others, and for the first time, invited the Li family's sister-in-law out to have dinner with Mrs. Li.

Lin Fufu stood behind Mrs. Li, and when she saw the flowing food being served on the table, the little aunt of the Li family sat on the side talking to Mrs. Li with a smile, and her heart arose.

This is unusual. As far as she knows, Aunt Li's meals are specially prepared by the big kitchen of the Zhou family. I'm afraid it will make her feel bad.

But why did you change this rule today? No sign yet.

Lin Fufu glanced coldly at the food on the table. Could it be that there is something wrong with the food on the table? Don't be another "Hongmen Banquet"!

Grandma Zhou has already sat down, Mrs. Li sits at the head, Aunt Li sits at the second seat, and Grandma Zhou sits at the bottom.

With a smile on her face, she picked up an exquisite white porcelain jug, stood up and poured wine for Mrs. Li, "Mrs. Uncle, I will have a few drinks with you today, as an apology for my ignorance yesterday! " After finishing speaking, he poured a glass of wine for Mrs. Li.

Although Mrs. Li didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in her gourd, she stretched out her hand not to hit the smiling face, so she had no choice but to say: "It's serious."

The grandma of the Zhou family looked at the little aunt of the Li family again and said, "Fourth brother and sister, you are pregnant, so you don't drink this wine, and drinking tea is not good either. You can drink a little of the Rose Fragrance Dew you bought with your uncle and wife, and you can be regarded as an apology for my sister-in-law."

The little sister of the Li family who said this was puzzled, she still didn't know how her mother-in-law's sister-in-law offended her natal sister-in-law.

So the face is embarrassing.

Also, she doesn't like to drink that rose dew at all, she drank it when she was in her natal family.

But it's not appropriate to say it on this occasion.

She is in trouble.

Lin Fufu said with a smile: "Look, the Fourth Young Mistress doesn't like to drink it, so why don't the Fourth Young Mistress give it to me?"

"What's going on..." Grandma Zhou's expression changed, and she wanted to stop her.

Li's sister-in-law smiled and said: "If the child likes it, then give it to the child. The sister-in-law is fine. I will drink some water and accompany the two sisters-in-law."

Li Fufu happily took the red bottle of rose dew, quickly unscrewed the cork, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, and then his face changed...
