Chapter 29: A bowl of seafood soup

Mu Yunxiao would be so good, he even ordered the kitchen to improve the food for their mother and daughter? In Mu Yingxue's impression, her father was not such a person. First release EbookFREE.me
Don't say that Mu Yueli wronged her yesterday, even if he wronged her himself, I'm afraid he wouldn't lower her posture like this and show her kindness. Observed over the past few days, various behaviors have shown that Mu Yunxiao is a very male chauvinist, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a straight male patient with advanced cancer. Would such a man spend his time trying to please his wives and daughters? What's more, this kind of flattery is obviously an act of showing weakness.
No, it shouldn't be Mu Yunxiao's style.
"Liu'er, help me get the silver needle!"
"Madam..." Liu'er looked at Ouyang Ruo, obviously surprised at this order from her own lady.
"Go and get it." Ouyang Ruo's inner surprise was no less than Liu'er, but since she had decided that Mu Yingxue would be the backbone of everything in the future, she would not doubt her decision. What's more, there are too many intrigues in the backyard of the Hou Mansion. It will not be too surprising to see what happened.
Liuer Yiyan went to the inner room to get the silver needle and handed it to Mu Yingxue.
Without hesitation, Mu Yingxue picked up the silver needle and started testing with the nearest pot of braised carp.
Insert the silver needle into the fish belly, then pull it out, and then wait for the silver needle to change.
For a moment, except for a little soy sauce stain on the silver needle, there was no obvious color change. Seeing this picture, Ouyang Ruo secretly breathed a sigh of relief for some reason.
Although she is ready to be poisoned, she does not want this to happen, because once it happens, it means that their mother and daughter are not only the objects of others' calculations, but some people want to get rid of them. The goal.
That would be terrible.
But Mu Yingxue did not relax like her, her intuition and analysis of reality told her that this feast must be weird.
Sure enough, when the last pot of seafood soup was tested, the problem came. The original silver needle body of the silver needle turned black in an instant.
"You do evil, you do evil!" Mother Qiao stomped her feet in a hurry, patted her heart heavily with her hands, kneeled with her knees and folded her hands to the sky, "Bodhisattva Bless, Amitabha."
She got these meals from the kitchen, and when she thought that if the wife and the young lady had eaten these dishes, she would really have given up this old life and couldn't explain it to the two of them, and she was thrilled at the moment.
"Mother Qiao, don't do this, it's not your fault, you have to take care of your body." Liu Er helped her rub his heart, carefully comforting.
Mu Yingxue looked at the table of dishes coldly, her hands at the bottom of her sleeves were already clenched into fists, deceiving people too much! She looked at the three people around her and couldn't imagine that if she hadn't treated this matter with such care today, all of them would have eaten these dishes, then the consequences, the consequences...
Who on earth is thinking about her so much and wanting to kill her?
"Yingxue?"
Ouyang Ruo cautiously came over to hold her palm hurting because of being pulled too tightly, and gently broke her palm apart, "Who is so cruel to poison us?"
Seeing her lowered her head in tears, Mu Yingxue suddenly felt anguish in her heart. She stretched out her hand and gently patted her back and said, "Mother, don't be afraid. I am here, and everyone will be safe."
"Mother believes you." Ouyang Ruo wiped the corners of her eyes with his sleeves and smiled at her, "Mother believes you!"
A meal that was originally good was soaked in soup because it was poisoned. Mu Yingxue asked Liu'er to carry the pot of poisonous seafood soup and followed herself to the kitchen.
The cook ladies are eating. Because there were only a few of them here, the atmosphere was very enthusiastic, and no one noticed their arrival.
Mu Yingxue stood at the door for a while, listening to the content of the chat was nothing more than nasty among the subordinates, but these women were so embarrassed that they were mixed with narrow laughter from time to time.
Seeing this, Liu Er looked at her lady nervously, but she was angry with the cooks in her heart. A bunch of shameless old people, such nasty words, how could her young lady be able to hear this.
"Miss?" Seeing her standing motionless at the door, Liu Er thought she must be angry.
Unexpectedly, a faint smile appeared on Mu Yingxue's face, with a slight sarcasm at the corner of her mouth: "Sisters, really have a good time. What's the matter, having such a good chat?"
The ladies of the cook were chatting up, and they didn't expect someone to break in. They looked up and were stunned. They didn't expect it to be the fourth lady who was in the limelight during this time.
Although no one cared about a fool before and looked down upon Mu Yingxue mother and daughter, but now is not what it used to be. The prince, King Rui and even the emperor have shown their respect for this former fool. Who dares to despise her, at least On the surface, he dared not neglect.
Mother Li, the kitchen steward, reacted the fastest. She stood up and walked quickly to Mu Yingxue, smiling somewhat flatteringly: "Miss Si, why do you always come here? What's the matter, just ask someone to come over. Just give me an order, it doesn't take you to come here in person."
Mu Yingxue smiled faintly, and that smile directly taught Grandma Li to look cold: "It's nothing, but I am very satisfied with Sifang's food today. I would like to thank you all."
"Dare not, these are what we minions should do."
Grandma Li smiled wryly, but she was shocked in her heart. She didn't know why the fourth lady came here suddenly.
Mu Yingxue didn't answer her, only instructed Liuer to put the seafood soup on the table where the kitchen ladies were eating.
Liu'er was clever, put the soup and said to Grandma Li: "This is my little lady's heart."
Grandma Li looked at the big bowl of seafood soup, she was taken aback for a moment. She had already recognized that this was the bowl that Shicai had brought to Lao Sifang. Why did it look like it was brought back intact?
Mu Yingxue watched her expression and said unhurriedly: "My mothers have improved a lot in craftsmanship. Unfortunately, my mothers and I have not been very good recently. I can’t eat seafood. If the mothers don’t mind, just Help me solve this soup."
"Where can the young lady speak, the servants are too grateful, how can they afford to solve the word?"
Mother Li's flattering smile is deeper. This seafood soup is full of good products, scallops and shark fins. Usually it is difficult for them to keep some private goods for themselves, let alone such a big pot.
"Then please mothers, I will see you all before leaving after eating."
Mu Yingxue passed her, her eyes fell on the other cooks at the table, only to see that one of them heard her, and suddenly his face turned pale.
Madam Li didn't know the meaning of her words, and hurriedly said, "How can this be done? The fourth lady is really a shameless slave."
Then they brought in a clean stool and asked Mu Yingxue to sit down before returning to the dining table. After sitting down, he didn't dared to pick up the half-eaten bowl of food, I'm afraid that most of it has been cold by now.
Seeing that they were all sitting still, Mu Yingxue didn't move the chopsticks, and didn't force it. Originally, her purpose was not to let these people eat the soup. If she really wanted to eat it, she would even stop it. This trip was just a test to see if there was any ghost she was looking for.
Sure enough... still there are.
"You guys wouldn't be embarrassed just because I'm here?" She looked at her mouth coolly, with a smiling expression. In the eyes of the caring person, it looked like the snow and ice in the cold winter, and she would freeze people into ice for no reason.
At this moment, a slightly fat cook girl said with a blank face, and said with a dry smile: "Miss Si, the slave and maid are a little impatient, do you think..."
Mu Yingxue stared at her, her eyes were neither cold nor hot, and there was an unexplained smile at the corner of her mouth. She was so scared that the cook was already trembling with her legs in her wide-leg pants, sweating like rain.
Unexpectedly, Mu Yingxue did not promise her to do it or not, but instead looked at a dog who was eating crumbs in a swill bucket.
The dog's fur was shiny and shiny, and he knew it was a lot of oil and water on weekdays, and he was chubby and chubby.
Mu Yingxue said suddenly: "This dog is raised by one of you, it's really nice."
Madam Li hurriedly smiled and replied: "Just a stray dog. The servants will keep it when they see it pitifully. If the fourth lady looks in the way, the servants will take it to the house in two days."
"Where did the mother say, I like such a cute dog, but it's too late, what do you do to give it away?"
As she said, Mu Yingxue mimicked the sound of calling a dog, and went to the table, picked up a spoon on the table, scooped a spoonful of scallops in the seafood soup, and threw it on the muddy ground not far away.
When the dog heard the call and smelled the fragrance of the scallops, he ran over immediately, sniffed the nose, and licked the scallops with his tongue.
When everyone saw Mu Yingxue teasing the dog with such a good interest, they all watched with a smile, watching, but the smile slowly condensed on their faces.
It turned out that after the dog licked the food for a while, he flexed his forelegs and fell down slowly, foaming at the mouth and twitching his limbs. In the end he bleeds and lay motionless on the ground.
Everyone looked at the dog without knowing it, and for a long time looked at Mu Yingxue in horror. How could this good-looking dog be killed by her!
Only the chubby cook who was crying urinary urgency in advance sat staggered on the ground, her face pale and frightened, and her whole body was shaking.
The chefs who originally thought that Mu Yingxue killed a good dog, finally realized that this bowl of seafood soup was made by Mother Rong, that is, the chef on the paralyzed ground. See her now. Looks like, thinking of the sudden visit of the four young ladies today, there is no doubt in his heart.
"Miss Si, this, this...this doesn't care about our business!"
As a kitchen steward, Madam Li had a problem with the lady’s meal, so she was the first to ask the crime. At this time, there is still reason for not arguing.
All the cooks knelt down and shouted injustices one after another: "It doesn't matter what our business is, Miss Si, you are aware of the details and don't care about our business."
In a panic shouting for grievances, someone suddenly reacted quickly and hurriedly pulled the limp maternal grandmother, pointed her nose to her and asked angrily: "Is it you? Did you harm us all?"
