Yao Hongwen cried louder and went to complain to Xu Xuniang again.
Xu Xuniang felt sorry for her daughter and was even more dissatisfied with Mrs. Yao.
I knew before that these two immortals were partial to other people's granddaughters, but they still protected their own granddaughters after being beaten like this.
"Mother, I'm so miserable. You must help me... Can you ask the people in the courtyard to beat Meng Zhuo'er up?"
Xu Xuniang frowned: "What's the use of saying that you can be beaten in your own home? Is it strange that Meng Zhuoer was born as a general and knows martial arts? Why didn't you bring more people from your own courtyard to beat her? Now you want to beat her It’s too late.”
Yao Hongwen didn't know why her mother suddenly lost her temper: "Mother, why are you talking about your daughter like that...Aren't you doing this because you hate Meng Zhuo'er?"
Xu Xuniang sneered: "I am here for you and your brother. Meng Zhuoer is nothing. She is not worthy of my efforts for her. Now that the housekeeper is no longer in my hands, do you know how outsiders laugh at your mother?"
If I become the head mistress of this Yao family, we can have nothing, no matter how much money we want to spend, how can we live a tight life with the monthly salary now? "
Yao Hongwen was stunned: "You... didn't you put windmill jasmine in grandma's jasmine tea because you wanted to teach Meng Zhuo'er a lesson?"
"What your mother wants is to be the housekeeper of this family, so that when you get married, I can prepare ten miles of red makeup for you, and win over the officials of the court to pave the way for your brother. Do you understand?"
Yao Hongwen was speechless for a long time.
She really hadn't thought about this.
Xu Xuniang felt that her daughter could not hold up the wall, but she was glad that her son was not like this.
Her eyes became sinister: "But since Meng Zhuoer is so arrogant, then the matter of killing the old woman will be her fault."
Yao Hongwen suddenly broke into a cold sweat: "Mother, what are you going to do?"
"Don't those old immortals like Meng Zhuo'er very much? I would like to see if the old woman was killed by Meng Zhuo'er, if the old man could still be so kind to Meng Zhuo'er."
Xu Xuniang smiled coldly, "I've had enough over the years."
Yao Hongwen was horrified: "But that is my grandmother after all, she is my father's mother... Mother, you didn't mean to just make my grandmother sick and let Meng Zhuoer be punished. When my grandmother is sick and has no time to take care of the family affairs, you can take power." ah."
"But didn't you hear what your grandfather said in the front hall? He said that he invited a miracle doctor. If that person is really a miracle doctor, it would be a matter of time for your grandmother to get better. Then how long do I have to stay up... until five or six Ten years old, are you waiting for that dead old woman to die?"
Xu Xuniang roared, she had already done her job, so she was not afraid of drugging the old woman to death.
Yao Hongwen looked at her twisted mother tremblingly, not even recognizing her.
"I'm warning you, it's okay if you are useless. Don't hurt me or your brother."
Xu Xuniang saw Yao Hongwen's timidity, and she despised her even more.
In her opinion, even if it was for the sake of her son's career, she still had to hold on to the power of the housekeeper.
That old woman must die.
Xu Xuniang immediately asked someone to buy medicine. She was worried that Yao Hongwen would do something bad and locked him up.
She went to the kitchen to send away Mrs. Yao's confidant, Aunt Su.
Aunt Su didn't doubt that he was there, so she handed the medicine pot to Xu Xuniang.
After Nanny Su left, for the sake of safety, she ran to the door and made sure no one was around before taking out the medicine.
Looking at the boiling soup on the stove, Xu Xuniang felt nervous.
But the idea of killing Mrs. Yao was particularly firm.
For the sake of her son and daughter, so what if she became a murderer.
She shakily took out a packet of medicine, tore open the package and sprinkled the white powder into the boiling medicine.
Xu Xuniang's whole body tensed up and she murmured to herself: "Old lady, don't blame me. If you do, blame yourself for refusing to delegate power even at your age. You have caused me to be laughed at by so many people over the years, and you have also taken my life away from me." Send He'er away. If you don't die, my son won't be able to come back, and I won't have the money to pave the way for my son..."
She kept talking, as if she wanted to make herself feel more at ease, but because she was too panicked, she even sprinkled the powder on the edge of the medicine pot.
The white powder fell on the mud-colored medicine pot, which was obvious.
Xu Xuniang was in a panic and subconsciously wiped it with her hands. She was so hot that she felt cold and had a big blister.
"Get the rag, it's so hot!"
Suddenly someone kindly reminded me, and the other person even thoughtfully handed me a rag.
"Oh, I forgot...thank you."
Xu Xuniang tremblingly took the other party's rag and wiped the powder on the medicine pot.
She wiped it twice before realizing something was wrong.
…
Xu Xuniang suddenly turned her head and found that it was Meng Zhuoer.
Meng Zhuoer stood next to her, smiling brightly: "You're welcome!"
"M-Meng Zhuo'er, why are you here..."
Xu Xuniang was so frightened that the medicine bag in her hand fell to the ground, she stumbled back and hit the table.
"Let me pass you the rag. Didn't you accidentally get burned when you were applying the medicine?"
Meng Zhuoer looked innocent and picked up a new rag, "I have some more, do you want it?"
"I, I wasn't burned..." Xu Xuniang defended in a panic, then changed her words when she realized something was wrong, "No, I didn't drug, I didn't drug my mother..."
"No?" Meng Zhuoer opened Kazilan's big eyes, blinked, squatted on the ground and picked up the medicine bag, "Then what is this?"
Her smile was weird: "You don't mean to say that there is no medicine in this, right?"
Xu Xuniang's face turned pale, but she quickly calmed down: "I don't know what you are talking about."
Xu Xuniang suddenly paused and started to accuse Meng Zhuoer loudly: "Okay, you ignorant Meng Zhuoer, it is in vain that my mother is so kind to you.
You just put windmill jasmine in the jasmine tea to avenge your kindness. Now you are escaping from prison and trying to poison my mother. You deserve death. "
Meng Zhuoer sneered. She stood up slowly and put her hands on her hips: "Your head is spinning very fast, and you actually know how to frame me."
Xu Xuniang pretended to be calm and looked innocent: "I don't know what you said. I just came here and saw you drugging my mother."
"What are you doing?"
A sound of scolding suddenly came, and Old Mrs. Yao and Yao Ningming suddenly appeared at the door, followed by a large number of people.
"Father, husband, you are here just in time, hurry up and arrest this Meng Zhuo'er. You don't know how vicious she is, but she is still determined to drug her mother. Look, the medicine bag is still in her hand and you are starving."
Xu Xuniang thought she had taken a preemptive strike and pointed at the medicine bag in Meng Zhuoer's hand to explain.
Meng Zhuoer shrugged and was not in a hurry to explain.
Old Mrs. Yao stared at her indifferently, raised his hand and slapped her in the face.
With a snap, Xu Xuniang was slapped and sat on the ground.
Xu Xuniang was stunned: "Father, father, you...what do you mean?"
