Chapter 38: Pandan died suddenly


To show his gratitude, Yao Shanhu specially invited Jiang Xiaolou and set a table for a banquet. His voice was soft: "Thanks to my sister this time."
Jiang Xiaolou's eyes fell on her face, and he smiled brightly: "Sister, you are welcome."
Yao Shanhu wears a water-red embroidered dress with a lotus flower. He only wears a pearl hairpin. His face is like a crystal plum blossom. He is youthful and pure, making people unable to look away.
"My sister helped me like this, so I don't know how to repay it." She was grateful, and she wanted to toast a glass of wine, but Jiang Xiaolou gently shook her head, stopped her hand, and said: "I am unwell. , Can’t drink.

Yao Shanhu was stunned, then reacted, quickly put down his hand, and said in a dull manner: "Oh, Lily only said yesterday that your sister can't eat raw or cold food when your monthly letter comes... You see, I'm confused, so stop drinking. !" Immediately turned around and told Lily to put away all the flasks.
Jiang Xiaolou just smiled and was not angry, but Yao Shanhu repeatedly blamed himself for failing to think about it, and always looking unhappy. When Jiang Xiaolou was about to rest when he returned to the house, Lily knocked on the door immediately.
Lily slightly apologized: "The lady said that she was afraid that you were not used to the ones used by the servants, and sent new ones to you." She said, she handed over a tray.
Jiang Xiaolou saw that a well-crafted ribbon product was placed on the tray, and he was surprised.
In the previous dynasty, if women came to the moon letter, they would usually put plant ash into small cloth strips and tie the two ends with thin threads around their waists, forming the so-called red plum belt. If it is dirty and need to be replaced, discard the ash inside, wash it with water and saponaria, and then air dry before using. Women from wealthy families will use clean cotton instead of plant ash. But because new cotton is not easy to absorb water, plant ash is still the first choice. In the Great Monday dynasty, most of the girls like to use straw paper in the red plum ribbon, and Jin Yu specially ordered people to make the most high-end red plum ribbon, using the soft white paper used for rituals of ordinary large families, with a satin texture. It is also the best, with regular supply every month. However, due to the high price of this paper, only the most popular girl in Guose Tianxiang Lou has the right to use it.
Rare things are precious. Jinyu always distinguishes grades from all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, and the results are really remarkable.
Now, the red plum belt has been given to Jiang Xiaolou by Yao Shanhu, which is no ordinary favor. Jiang Xiaolou's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled decisively: "Thank you, Miss." After speaking, he closed the door.
Lily choked on what Lily was about to say, and suddenly lost her face, shaking her sleeves and leaving with a cold snort.
Of course, Jiang Xiaolou would not use the red plum ribbons sent by Yao Shanhu, but she would wash it every day and then dry it in the yard, and hung it in a particularly conspicuous place, as if it was deliberately shown to everyone. One night, the ribbon suddenly disappeared. Such a good thing was stolen. Jiang Xiaolou apologized to Yao Shanhu. Although the other party said it's okay, but his expression couldn't hide his uncomfortableness. After that, he did everything possible to send Lily out to find out if the ribbon was stolen. Eventually But got nothing.
Three days later, in the morning, Jiang Xiaolou was awakened by a loud noise. As soon as he got up, he heard someone screaming loudly: "No, come here, dead, dead, come on!"
She listened attentively, and the voice seemed to come from the east.
Opening the door, Yao Shanhu stood at the door with a panic expression: "Sister, did you hear that, something happened outside!"
They hurried to Biyue Pavilion, so everyone saw it. Li Xianglan lay on her back on the bed, her face half rouge, her eyes wide open, her upper body was only a shirt, three or two buttons were unbuttoned, revealing the snow-white fragrant shoulders, and one foot faintly hanging Embroidered shoes with bright red satin, the upper embroidered with lifelike mandarin ducks playing in the water, while the other one was lying alone on the edge of the bed.
Jade knelt and sat on the side, so scared that he had lost his words, his face was white.
Li Xianglan died overnight, Yao Shanhu's eyes were hazy, and tears filled his eyelashes: "It's terrible, how could this happen!"
Jin Yu's face was full of frost, and everyone else looked worried.
Li Xianglan died suddenly when she was about to go to bed in the middle of the night. She had only half of her shoes taken off. When Jade discovered that morning, she had become a stiff corpse.
Jiang Xiaolou remained motionless, hiding himself in the shadows, like a sculpture.
Yao Shanhu took a courageous look, only to see the freshly cleaned red plum belt next to the pillow, his complexion changed drastically. The snow-colored shell teeth bit her vermilion lips, immediately clutching her veil, and weeping in mourning, "Sister Xianglan died so miserably!" With a shaky appearance, Lily quickly helped Yao Shanhu out.
Jiang Xiaolou saw all this in his eyes, and the corner of his lips provoked a cold smile.
With a look of disgust, Jin Yu told Mother Lu: "This girl died too unlucky, so she should be dragged out and buried, quietly, don't disturb the overnight guests in the building!"
Mother Lu responded, Jin Yu could no longer bear the stale air in the room, and quickly led people away.
Mother Lu looked back at Li Xianglan on the bed, trying to capture the gold chain around her neck, but her stern eyes stared at her, making her uneasy, so she waved her hand and told Jade: "I'm going to die. Take off all the valuable jewelry from your master and send her on the road!"
"Yes." Emerald sobbed authentically.
"Wait a minute!" Jiang Xiaolou suddenly stepped forward.
Mother Lu squinted at her: "What are you doing?!"
Jiang Xiaolou whispered softly: "Mother Lu, the red plum belt was originally given to me by coral. Can the property be returned to the original owner?"
Jade was very nervous: "Miss Taoyao, my lady has used this belt twice..."
Mother Lu frowned in disgust: "Take it away, you want this kind of filthy thing, it's really not on the stage!"
Jiang Xiaolou wrapped it in cloth and put it away, but smiled and said, "Thank you, Mother Lu." After speaking, she turned and left.
Yao Shanhua was so scared that Huarong was pale, and he immediately invited Doctor Wang to see her. The doctor saw the disease and prescribed medicine, and then detoured to Jiang Xiaolou to see her old illness. Jiang Xiaolou took advantage of others not paying attention, and quietly took the red plum out to Doctor Wang.
The man was really unlucky when he encountered this kind of thing. He frowned for a long time, but he checked it carefully, and soon his whole face turned pale: "This ribbon is coated with Nantianzhu juice. If you wear it on your body, the medicine will quickly It penetrates into the body through the skin, the faster the blood flow, the faster the poisoning, and the more serious it will cause cramps, respiratory failure and death. You must not touch this thing!"
When it comes to crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, Yao Shanhu recognizes the second, I am afraid no one dares to recognize the first. Just finished painting that picture, and in a blink of an eye, she wanted her life, and still prescribed medicine in a place that ordinary people couldn't beware of.
The sharpness of Jiang Xiaolou's eyes narrowed, and his eyes were cold: "Li Xianglan is just for the dead ghost..."
