Chapter 574 Afraid of what the third uncle will do

"What? So fast?" Mrs. Hu was startled, and followed up: "Madam, what else do you need to prepare, and this servant will prepare it now."

"Let's go together." Ye Muyu packed up his pen and ink, took six strips of cloth, and entered the kitchen, followed closely by Mrs. Hu.

"Madam, is this jar too small?" Seeing Ye Muyu took out the smallest ceramic jar at home to hold pickles, Hu asked puzzled.

Ye Muyu explained: "These are all prepared to give away to people on Ah Heng Road. It's not safe for everyone to pick up pickles in a jar. We don't know what other people's living habits are."

"Madam is worried that someone will drug the master?" Hu asked.

Ye Muyu looked at her suspiciously: "Why do you ask such a question?"

Hu smiled: "I heard a story before, a scholar went to the exam, but had diarrhea before the exam, went to the exam room, and before he had time to answer the question, he pulled it down in his pants, causing the students in the nearby exam room to suffer from it. , did not perform properly, and the scholar was carried out by the yamen servants in the middle of the process, and the exam results of that year were invalidated."

"Because many students were affected, I took this matter as a topic of discussion."

"At that time, the servant's family was still working in a small merchant's house in Fucheng. They also heard about this incident. There is still a follow-up. I heard that when the student woke up, he was told that he had taken laxatives."

"Think about it, who would take laxatives for nothing, they must have been framed."

"The scholar later sued his fellow scholar for drugging him. I heard that although there was insufficient evidence, the world knew that it was the fellow who did it. This matter has been passed on for a long time. I heard that the drugged A scholar, very talented, everyone said that if he hadn't been drugged, he would have passed the exam on the spot."

"After that, did this scholar pass the exam?" Ye Muyu asked curiously.

Hu felt that Ye Muyu's focus was a bit strange, and said with a smile: "Madam, I don't know about this servant, should I pass the exam?"

Seeing Ye Muyu's thoughtful appearance, Hu hurriedly said: "Madam, the point is, tell the master not to eat the food given by others before the exam, for sure, there will be someone with bad thoughts."

"Well, let Ah Heng come back and talk to him."

"The madam really has the foresight. If these pickles are separated, since the master's friendship with classmates will not be broken, the master himself is safe."

"No, this thing is not going to be given away." Ye Muyu said.

"Huh?" Hu didn't respond.

Ye Muyu explained: "If you don't say it, I haven't considered it yet. Since there are examples you mentioned before, other scholars will definitely prepare their own food. I guess everyone will default to eating the food they brought to ensure safety and avoid accidents." hurt feelings."

"Then still use small jars?" After hearing this, Hu felt that it made sense.

Ye Muyu nodded: "Pack, just pack three cans."

Ye Muyu thought to himself: If something unexpected happens while dealing with the affairs of the Wang family, Chu Heng can still leave with a can of pickles and rice grains.

Of course, this is better than nothing.

"Okay." Seeing that Ye Muyu didn't say much, Hu sensibly stopped asking.

In addition to preparing pickles, Ye Muyu went to prepare some white wine, gauze and other items.

Old house.

Chu Heng's arrival made Mrs. Zhang a little guilty. She hid in the house and did not dare to come out. Seeing Chu Liushi bring Chu Heng into the main room with her own eyes, she patted her chest and stood up straight.

Chu Qingxiang was sitting by the bed making her wedding dress, and seeing Zhang's reaction, she couldn't help but ask, "Mother, what are you so afraid of third uncle?"
