Recap "The Lady in Butcher’s House" Episode 16

Apr 13, 2022

Although Hu Jiao's performance was so obvious, Xu Qingjia was still the head of a wooden fish. He didn't think of sharing the bed with her at all, but ran to the study with the quilt. It was also because of Xu Qingjia's unknowing interest that Hu Jiao came to Yuchun Building gloomily. Yuniang saw through her thoughts at a glance, and bluntly stated that she and Xu Qingjia had never had the same room so far.

At Yu Niang's suggestion, Hu Jiao dressed herself up and sat beside the bed pretending to show off her literary talent. The so-called literary talent was nothing more than reciting poetry to the moon, and she had to look at the note in her hand at all times, stammering. Xu Qingjia thought that Hu Jiao had a fever, so she wanted to take her to see Lang Zhong, so angry that Hu Jiao suddenly lost her elegance. The next morning, Gao Zheng came to Xu Qingjia angrily, scolding him for not disciplining his wife well, and letting Hu Jiao choose a son-in-law for Yu Niang outside.

Nowadays, the real account book and the silver mine have not progressed for a long time. Xu Qingjia feels shameless to face those workers, and can clearly feel the weight of the jack on his shoulders. On the way to the yamen, Xu Qingjia accidentally found Yang Zhuzhu coming out of the newly opened restaurant. He was so drunk that he needed someone to help him to go back.

For a period of time after that, Xu Qingjia went out early and returned late to be busy with official business. Even if he went home, he would spend the night in the study, so there were few opportunities to meet each other every day. That day, when Xu Qingjia came back in the middle of the night, he didn't expect Cui Wulang to wait for him at the door for a long time, just because Hu Jiao sat in the yard without a word and sharpened his knife, which made him a little horrified.

Hu Jiao also accepted it when she saw it, and didn't have to force the man to kneel down and admit her mistake, so when Xu Qingjia took the initiative to apologize to her, she was relieved a lot. Perhaps inspired by Yu Niang, Hu Jiao took the initiative to cook porridge for Xu Qingjia. She was going to send it to the yamen, but she happened to see Xu Qingjia entering Yuchun Tower.

Realizing that Xu Qingjia and Yuniang had been meeting frequently these days, Hu Jiao was very angry, sitting alone in the corner and crying bitterly. Gao Zheng saw this scene, so she ran to Yuchunlou to warn Yuniang again. Just as Yu Niang was painting a portrait, she asked Gao Zheng to sit next to her as a model, and by the way revealed her innocence with Xu Qingjia, she was just acting on Hu Jiao on purpose, so that she could see her heart as soon as possible.

In this way, Xu Qingjia asked Yu Niang to give a powerful medicine, but Yu Niang's powerful medicine was not only useful to Hu Jiao, but even made Gao Zheng difficult to control. After getting along last time, both Gao Zheng and Yu Niang had a good impression of each other, but Gao Zheng was far more dull than Xu Qingjia.

Yu Niang still persevered to bring dim sum to Xu's house. Sometimes she deliberately put a plate of carp on it. At first, Hu Jiao didn't pay attention to it. After she knew the meaning of carp, she decided to cook by herself. After trying, I finally made a qualified noodle carp.

How could she know that when Yu Niang was about to take the hairpin, Hu Jiao appeared at the door with the food box. When she saw this scene, she turned around and left, and the food box fell to the ground without knowing it. Seeing this, Xu Qingjia hurriedly chased after him, but Yu Niang stopped him first and pointed to the noodle carp in the food box, implying that this powerful medicine had an effect.

Tonight is the Qiqiao Festival. Pedestrians on the street are in pairs. Hu Jiao looks at the couplet next to her. However, she, who has little literacy, finally understands the gap between herself and Xu Qingjia. At this time, Yu Niang came with a silver hairpin and told the truth about the cause and effect of these days. As for the nerd in her eyes, she never changed her mind from beginning to end.

Xu Qingjia followed closely and confessed to Hu Jiao affectionately. At the same time, Yongshou was ordered to fetch two packets of drunk Li Tian. Only then did Hu Jiao know that Yongshou was going far away and went to Yunlai Town to find Lin Cui to get snacks. Hu Jiao, who was still in tears just now, finally burst into tears and laughed. After this incident, the relationship between the two quickly warmed up.

On the other hand, on the night of begging, Yu Niang stood alone by the window. Fortunately, Gao Zheng's appearance gave her a little comfort. Gao Zheng came here because of the whereabouts of the real account book. Yu Niang did not make it clear, but only revealed that Master Yang would secretly meet Xiaohong in Yuchun Building on the 15th day of the first lunar month. If you want to get the account book, you have to seize the opportunity of these two days.

Gao Zheng clenched his fists and thanked him. Before leaving, he put a box of dim sum on the window edge. Yu Niang was happy when she saw it, and Jiao resented that he was also an idiot. That night, Gao Zheng came to Xu's house to tell him the news, and Xu Qingjia had to see what happened next, but Xu Qingjia thought of a trick and turned to Hu Jiao for help.

Because the story of Hu Jiao taking her husband from Yuniang spread all over Shangyong, the officials and wives admired her husband's method and asked her for advice one after another, including the wife of the master bookkeeper Yang. Hu Jiao took advantage of the situation to break out the rumors of the secret meeting of the chief bookkeeper Yang, Xiaohong, and successfully won the trust of Mrs. Yang.

The magistrate of Zhu felt that Shiyangzhai needed to send some more people, and he could not count on Yang's master, so he simply handed it over to Song Yasi. Concubine Yun regarded Hu Jiao as a thorn in her side and wanted to drive her out of Shangyong County, so she mentioned the last time she heard about Heli. The magistrate Zhu thought of the man in black and planned to ask him to steal the book of Heli for her. .

In the blink of an eye, it was the day when Director Yang met Xiaohong in private. Xu Qingjia asked Cui Wulang to keep an eye on him, while Hu Jiao went to find Mrs. Yang. As for Gao Zheng, who was staying near Yuchun Building, if anything happened, he would respond in time. . Everything went according to Xu Qingjia's plan, but the appearance of the man in black caught Gao Zheng's attention.

Cui Wulang put the drug in the room of the private meeting of Director Yang. Unexpectedly, the rumored Xiaohong was actually a man. Such a preference made everyone feel uncomfortable. Cui Wulang went out to let the wind out, and Xu Qingjia changed the account book of Yang's master. In order to avoid other accidents, he first handed the account book to Yu Niang for safekeeping, trusting her as a person.

The magistrate Zhu led the yamen to Yuchun Building, stopped Hu Jiao and Mrs. Yang in time, and bumped into Xu Qingjia in the yard. Fortunately, Xu Qingjia had a lot of good hands, and beforehand replaced Helishu with Hu Jiao's calligraphy, which was worthy of escape. Song Yasi entered the room and smelled the smell of alcohol in the room, and found the ledger on the master bookkeeper Yang, so he didn't have too much suspicion. As for Gao Zheng, who was injured and poisoned, he slipped into the Yuchun Building when everyone was unprepared, and was taken care of by Yu Niang for the time being.
