469 Night Ghosts
Looking at the light back slowly walking away, hidden in the darkness outside the house, Liu Xue was stunned, as if she was hesitating to catch up and go with her, after all, as long as she was by that person's side, she would feel a kind of warmth in her heart, which was far better than being in this dark and gloomy mourning hall. But she didn't dare to go, and her sister wouldn't allow it.
Liu Ying's snow-white teeth bit her bright red lips, and slowly squeezed out a line of words with hatred between her lips and teeth: "Little slut, I went into the palace to swagger and cheat, and I cured what prince I was, and when I came back, I was taken seriously by the old man, and I was completely shaken! Look at that shameless appearance, how innocent she is! The mother was forced to death by her, and she still wants to deny it!
Liu Xue wiped a handful of tears, a little unbearable, this vicious word and sentence on the little sister-in-law's head, is it a little unfair, what people just said seems to make sense, and she doesn't fully understand the things that adults calculate and calculate, but she just thinks it's not appropriate to say this.
Xiao Xiao thought for a while before she raised her head and asked timidly: "Sister, did our mother really kill so many people? Brother Wan's mother, the eldest aunt's wife, was killed by her mother? Brother Wan's illness was really poisoned by her mother? However, her mother is so good to Brother Wan, sometimes she is better than us, why did she harm him? There are other aunts and their children......
"Smack!" A slap landed on Liu Xue's mouth, and she was gagged.
She looked stupidly at her sister, whose face was badly distorted and became very, very ugly, as hideous as a terrible ghost who wanted to eat people.
Liu Xue was so frightened that she didn't dare to cry out in pain, but the doubts in her heart couldn't be dispelled with a slap anyway, she just couldn't figure out why her mother could do so many bad things? She was her own mother, didn't she say that only bad people can do bad things? Since her mother did bad things, did she become a bad person?
When she faintly thought that her mother was really a bad person, her heart suddenly beat and she felt deeply uneasy, as if she was a bad person even with herself.
However, the atmosphere in front of the mourning hall, the attitude of everyone in the whole house towards the funeral of the mother's relatives, has repeatedly shown that she is a bad person, even if she is dead, but everyone not only does not sympathize, but also hates her more and more, although the sister-in-law personally presided over the funeral, Steward Liu led people to arrange the mourning hall, and some people with status in the clan also came to pay tribute, but everyone's expressions all showed haste and coping.
The father was also faint, it seemed that the death of his original wife, he was just a little dazed, and there was no pain on his face, he accompanied the patriarch to pay a hasty memorial and left. He should be in Aunt Jiu's courtyard now, hugging the lovely Bao'er and smiling happily, he has long forgotten that this place is so deserted.
There is also my uncle's house, here I sent my guys to report the funeral, but I didn't come to the funeral, it is said that the eldest uncle is sick, and the second uncle said that the war is raging, and it is so chaotic, they will not come, so I will watch it here. This takes matters to account.
What other affectionate relatives are there, the aunt of the Bai family in Qingzhou Mansion, she is the closest to her mother, but the person who delivered the letter not only did not pick up the aunt, but also brought back an even more terrible news, saying that the aunt's house was on fire, and a fire burned down the home, and the whole family was burned to ashes. This made Liu Ying very frustrated, could the white cousin she was thinking about in her heart also burn to death? That must have been burned, otherwise he would have gone here a long time ago.
As for the neighbors, my father said don't be alarmed, the war is going on, every family is terrified, and it is common for people to die, so don't alarm them.
It seems that the mother's funeral will be dealt with so quietly.
Liu Xue didn't think there was anything wrong with this, but her sister Liu Ying was angry, saying that her father was partial, saying that everyone was falling into the well and treating her mother poorly, and even the dead were not treated well.
During the day, Liu Xue didn't feel how serious it was, but now in the middle of the night, she finally realized that the fate of her mother after her death was really miserable, in the huge mansion, only a few people were at the door to deal with errands, and then only the two sisters kept vigil overnight, and no relatives came to accompany them.
Is this the end of doing too many bad things?
She didn't dare to think about it, but she couldn't help but think about it again and again.
Since the funeral shed was erected, except for my father who brought a few people from the clan to visit, and then my sister-in-law who came just now, I couldn't find a third person to pay respects.
The little sister-in-law came, but not to pay tribute to her mother, but to Mother Liu.
In the eyes of the sister-in-law, Mama Liu is a good person?
Liu Xue had vague and incomprehensible doubts in her heart, and fell asleep in a groggy state.
I don't know how long I slept, but a frightened cry suddenly pierced my ears and hit my heart, "Ahhh
Liu Xue woke up in fright.
Rubbing his confused eyes, the only miserable thing in front of him was his mother's mourning hall, the dark coffin, and the candle flame swaying in the wind.
Sister Liu Ying is missing.
Liu Xue was frightened, got up and stood still.
Suddenly, a soft slap covered her mouth, and a voice commanded in her ear: "Don't be afraid, it's me, follow me." ”
Listening to the sound is vaguely shallow.
Liu Xue followed in a daze, walked out of the mourning hall, and the servants who were keeping vigil at the door slept crookedly, and the screams just now did not wake them up.
Liu Xue followed Qian'er all the way, and finally entered the corner courtyard gate.
After entering the house, seeing the warmth of the lights, Liu Xue breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that from the gloomy mourning hall to the warm living environment, a heart was not beating so terribly.
A man wrapped in a wide black cloak slammed into the door with a cloud of wind, dragging another white figure behind him.
The cloak fell, and the person inside was the sister-in-law.
"Are you pretending to be a ghost?" Liu Xue was surprised.
"It's you, a little prostitute?" Liu Ying, who had been obediently following in behind her, suddenly jumped up and shouted.
"What's it called? This is the corner courtyard, and besides, the umbrella that protects you is long gone, so you should wake up too!" the little sister-in-law said in a cold voice and glared back.
Sister Liu Ying suddenly wilted, and she didn't dare to scold.
But she was unwilling: "Pretend to be a ghost to scare me first, and take advantage of my frightening confusion to bring me here, what do you mean?"
"It's not interesting. The little sister-in-law spoke lightly, sitting on the embroidery stool, her eyes shining brightly under the candlelight, but Liu Xue felt that the light was so cold, colder than the ice of the first three or nine days outside.
"It's just that I want to ask you something, there are many people during the day, and it's not good to ask about your eldest girl's reputation. I asked in the mourning hall, the dead are the greatest, and I am afraid that I will disturb them. ”
Liu Ying snorted, "If you have something to say, let it go, Miss Ben has to go back to guard her mother's spirit!"
The dumb aunt didn't beat around the bush at all, "Liu Yan, did you kill you?"
Liu Xue was frightened, what? Sister Liu Yan died, it was Sister Liu Ying who caused it? How is this possible?!"
Liu Ying was blinded by this sudden question, and asked rhetorically, "How do you know?"
The dumb aunt smiled lightly: "Just say it's not you! Give a happy word, don't try to deny it." ”
"I don't know. Liu Ying refused.
"I don't know?" the dumb aunt sneered, "I don't know! The pills I prepared for Liu Yan that day, the time to fake her death and the subsequent recovery were all carefully designed by me, but she died later." She didn't change her pills secretly, who else?"
Liu Ying also sneered: "It turned out that it was the pill you dispensed, and it was you who provoked her to fake her death?" Okay, the real culprit who killed people is you, and you are even embarrassed to give me the stolen goods here! Go, follow me to see my father, and send you to see the official!"
Liu Ying splashed, and her hands twisted the sleeves of the dumb aunt.
Qian'er didn't dare to stop it.
Liu Wan had been lying in the bed, but then he suddenly jumped down, raised the embroidery stool with both hands, and was about to slash down at Liu Ying's head: "Dare to come here to find yourself uncomfortable, believe it or not, I will kill you at once?!"
His eyes were round, and he had an expression of really daring to do it.
Liu Ying knew that this fool had dared to do anything before, so she was so frightened that she hurriedly retreated and let go of her dumb aunt's arm.
The dumb aunt was not angry, but laughed, "I pretended to be a ghost, I only scared you, a person who has done bad things, you are the biggest ghost in this house, you are at a young age, you can murder others in silence, and this victim is still your sister, you will be able to pay it back when you grow up in the future!"
Liu Ying looked disdainful, "You are a foreign child daughter-in-law, a poor girl, and it is not your turn to teach me a lesson!"
Liu Wan suddenly raised his foot, kicked Liu Ying's hind leg with a "......", and scolded, "It's shameless! She doesn't deserve to teach you, I deserve it! Then I'll clean up what you owe to your tutor!"
