Zhou Chen looked at Pei Wenlang, who had a pleading look on his face, and then looked at the members of the Pei family who were no longer fighting but were each in their own embarrassment.
He said slowly: "Everyone eats the same thing, how can they get a bad stomach? Of course it's not a bad stomach!"
Pei Wenlang's heart sank slightly. He and Pei Linxuan exchanged glances. There was something in these words!
He held his cramped stomach and tentatively said with a smile: "Steward Zhou, here, we all suddenly have a stomachache. If the pain continues like this, it will definitely affect our work. Steward Zhou, please be kind and call a doctor for us.
Right?"
Zhou Chen said calmly: "No need to call the doctor, you are not sick!"
"It's not illness, why does it hurt so much?" Pei Jinhai couldn't help it.
Zhou Chen snorted and laughed: "Aren't you familiar with this pain? Don't you know it yourself?"
Pei Shihua's previous words came to everyone's mind again, and Pei Jinchu asked: "Steward Zhou, we seem to be infected with the poison, but it doesn't take fifteen days for the poison to develop, it should take at least nine days for it to develop!"<
/p>
Zhou Chen said: "Yes, it was supposed to take nine days to develop. Oops, I forgot to remind you that this poison normally requires an antidote once every half month. However, some people don't sleep at night and take it all night."
Howl, howl, run, run, and then the poison will become disordered in the body? Isn't it normal that it will be released in advance?"
The concubine of the Pei family wants to scold: You are a normal ghost!
Do you still bring something like this? If you want to go in advance, do you have any rules?
However, they dare not say anything.
Zhou Chen added: "You have all asked, and I am also very curious. That night, you cried, made noise, ran, jumped, and danced around in a hurry. Were you collectively sleepwalking?"
Pei Wenlang immediately said: "Yes, Butler Zhou, we, we are sleepwalking. We didn't expect to be sleepwalking. This poison has spread in advance. Can Butler Zhou be kind and give us the antidote in advance?"
Zhou Chen sneered in his heart and said: "The timing of your sleepwalking is very coincidental. On the day when the master of the house fell ill, you sleepwalked? The young lady is very angry, and the consequences will be serious!"
"We were wrong, we all know we were wrong!" Pei Jinhai rolled his eyes and immediately begged: "Steward Zhou, seeing that we have been working honestly, for the sake of beating us wherever you point out, can you
Give us the antidote?"
Zhou Chen opened his eyes wide: "Do you think too highly of me? I'm just a housekeeper. Your antidote is not in my hands. The young lady hasn't given it to me yet!"
"Then can you trouble Butler Zhou to ask for a favor from the little lady?"
Zhou Chen glanced at him expectantly, looking into his eyes. He was even more surprised: "Don't you know that the antidote is freshly made? Every time, the little lady only gives it when the date has been found.
The servants go to the drug store to buy medicine and then come back to prepare the antidote."
He sighed: "Young miss is not a clairvoyant, and I didn't know that you would sleepwalk together all night long. You didn't prepare the antidote in advance at all, but you got the poison so long in advance. I don't have the antidote in my hand. How can I give it to you?"
Everyone in the Pei family's concubine was stunned. They really didn't want to endure this kind of pain anymore. They didn't care about their face. They didn't care about looking at Zhou Chen before and thought he was just a domestic slave. Now they were all pointing at Zhou Chen.
He knelt down and said in a flurry of words: "Steward Zhou, can you help me to ask the young lady to help make an antidote?"
Zhou Chen shook his head and said: "You guys, what are you talking about? Don't you know that the master of the house is sick? The young lady knew that the master of the house was sick, and she was so anxious as if she didn't even leave the house. She has been taking care of the master of the house.
What! You said that I asked the little lady to prepare the antidote now, how can I say it? What if the little lady asks why the time is still nine days away and the antidote is needed now, what should I say?"
Everyone in the Pei family: "..."
Pei Shihua is considered to be a smarter person among the younger members of the Pei family. He immediately said: "Butler Zhou, please have a kind word. I have a jade pendant here. Although it's not worth much, the butler can still exchange it for some tea money.
Of!"
As he spoke, he took out a jade pendant of good quality from his arms.
When Zhou Chen saw this jade pendant, his eyes darkened.
He is an old man from the Pei family. He has seen most of the old items in the Pei family. He knows this jade pendant. It was in the Pei family's warehouse back then.
These bastards emptied the Pei family's gold, silver, fine pearls and jade, leaving only an empty shell of the palace and large items that couldn't be taken away.
Unexpectedly, after so many years, this jade pendant would appear again.
He took the jade pendant, took a look at it, and said: "It's a good thing. I will put in a good word for you about your antidote!"
Once they heard that there was a way to do this, the people in the Pei family's concubine family all started thinking about it.
It really hurts so much. If they can exchange the pain with something, they are willing!
So, one by one started to take out things.
Every one of these people had lived in Pei's house back then. Except for the young Pei Shiyou, he actually had a few things that he had taken away from Pei's house.
After a while, Zhou Chen had more than twenty items in his hand.
Jade pendants, jade pendants, bracelets, jade rings, large gold and jade rings...
These, without exception, are all old items from the Pei Mansion.
But these are just those that are easy to carry around and are used for appearance.
The calligraphy, painting, antiques, large pieces of gold and jade, etc. are either still in Pei's hometown, or they have been sold off.
People like the concubines of the Pei family behaved disgustingly at first, but Mu Qingyu did not search them. Their wealth was all their own, so now they have something to "bribe" Zhou Chen!
Zhou Chen was secretly angry that these bastards didn't do human things back then, but on their faces they looked like they were taking people's money and helping them to eliminate disasters. He said: "Since each of you has honored me with something, I will naturally do the same for you."
Good words, I will beg the little lady to make an antidote for you!"
Everyone in the Pei family’s concubine family expressed their thanks in a hurry.
Zhou Chen sighed, looked at them with pity, and said: "Masters and young masters, I have something to say, I don't know whether to say it or not!"
At this time, the concubine of the Pei family asked for something from him. Although he disliked him for not hurrying to plead with Mu Qingyu after taking the things, he still said in a good manner: "But it doesn't matter, Butler Zhou!"
Zhou Chen looked at them again and said: "During this period, I have seen what kind of life you have been living in the house. I feel very sorry for you in my heart, and I feel a little unworthy for you! Of course, I am
It’s my duty to treat you selfishly, but I’m thinking, you also have the surname Pei, so why can’t you write two characters of Pei in one stroke?”
