523 Night Catch
Liu Wan also followed, ran out of the door and remembered that the stinky woman was still sick, returned a few steps, and pressed the dumb aunt on the pillow, "You lie down and rest, and ask someone to boil some supplements to make up for it - these things are handled by our big men, so you don't need to worry about it-"
The dumb aunt smiled, "I still have to sleep separately, look at how long it will take to return to the middle courtyard, my man will grow up, and he is still so sensible!"
Liu Wan suddenly heard her call herself her own man, her face flushed, afraid that she would see the change in herself, and deliberately snorted: "I don't know the hearts of good people-but I really can't do anything wrong with my body anymore, you see I'm tired." ”
As he spoke, he turned and left.
Looking at the figure who hurriedly stepped into the darkness, the dumb aunt's nose was a little sour, and she looked at Qian'er: "He has really grown up a lot, he was angry and peed his pants last winter, you look at it now, he has his own ideas for speaking and doing things, but he has grown up!"
Qian'er's face flushed slightly: "Thanks to you, little grandmother, if it weren't for you-"
"Don't say this again, life and death are rich and noble, which has his own efforts and your dedication, you are guarding him day and night to take care of him, and it is his blessing to meet a woman like you who treats him well. ”
Qiao's mother boiled a bowl of multigrain porridge, and the dumb aunt wanted to get up to eat, so Qian'er pressed her on the pillow and fed her spoonful by spoonful.
The dumb aunt felt that her whole body was really sore and weak, so she lay down and told her to feed.
Now she can accept the lifestyle of being served a little.
After eating a big bowl, Qiao's mother made a big quilt and came over, "Cover the heat and sweat all over, and it will be fine tomorrow." It's just a girl, I have to remind you, old woman, you really don't want to be so tired anymore in the future, you said that you haven't had a good day of rest since you came back. Even if it's to feed us, you can't exhaust yourself. ”
The dumb aunt looked at Qiao's mother's sincere gaze and felt a little moved, she really cared about herself, and from this lowest-level woman, she felt the warmth of a family.
But she was worried about the front yard in her heart, "I don't know what happened to the front yard? Even if Bai Yulin sneaked out to gamble, the government wouldn't know about it so quickly—but since the government can arrest people, it means that things are not going well—why didn't I think of this layer in the first place?"
Mrs. Liu Xiucai sat on the pillow with worry in her eyes, "Don't put the burden on your shoulders - he is the master's brother-in-law, and it is the master's decision to keep them." If the master really doesn't stay, it's useless for us to beg for it. Since there are people left, there are some hidden dangers that the lord should be considering. You should also be prepared in advance. ”
The dumb aunt smiled bitterly: "Have you noticed, these two brothers-in-law are really the same way, one is lazy and does eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling everything, and the other does not ask about the world and only seeks to be clean and sometimes scholarly and angry, it is strange that such people get together and do not have accidents." ”
Several women sat under the lamp, all preoccupied, and no one knew what the situation would be next.
"Sleep," Qian'er tucked the quilt corner for the dumb aunt, "I'm tired of a day, so I'll have a good rest first." ”
"I'm afraid I haven't been lucky enough to steal this early. The dumb aunt pushed away the quilt: "The front yard must be messed up." ”
In the front yard, there are a few more large lanterns than usual, reflecting the flowers and trees in the yard.
"Fu Wushuang doesn't come down alone, Fu Wushuang doesn't go alone-" In the study, Liu Dingmao circled on the ground, muttering and muttering in his mouth.
Bai Chen rushed to see Liu Dingmao overnight, she sat on an embroidered stool, looked at her eldest brother-in-law, tears in her eyes, "Brother-in-law, you have to give us an idea, now that Yulin is in prison, leaving us with young children, women and children, we are really desperate." ”
The black pressure at the door gathered several concubines and children of Bai Yulin.
Bai Chen's family still maintains a gentle and elegant demeanor that everyone is not surprised by when encountering problems, but Bai Yulin's aunts and wives can't be so calm, especially the second aunt is too a dusty woman, who is already spicy, and has given birth to a second son, and has always been stupid and coquettish to clean up Bai Yulin. Now that Bai Yulin is gone, she still has something to do in these days, so she seems more irritable than anyone else, wiping her tears with a piece of red handkerchief, while pulling her neck and looking into the house.
If it weren't for Bai Chen's suppression and not allowing them to enter the house to make trouble, she would have rushed in and cried and begged Liu Dingmao, and her brother-in-law was arrested and taken away, who would help if Liu Dingmao's brother-in-law didn't help?
Bai Chen's family didn't let these aunts and children enter the house to beg Liu Dingmao in person, and the second aunt could only cry in a sobbing manner, crying while complaining: "Uncle Liu, you can save our Yulin, he is the backer of our family, if he has three longs and two shorts, who will we rely on to go - we have all become helpless people-"
Angry, Bai Chen gritted his teeth and shouted softly outside the door: "Ziyuan, you help your mother back, don't embarrass the Liu family's uncle, the Liu family's uncle's husband is already thinking of a way-we can't force him too much-"
The eleven-year-old boy named Ziyuan picked up the second aunt and turned away, the second aunt didn't want to go back, but her son was stronger than her, and she dragged her away, and she didn't dare to hurt her son's face too much, so she could only cry and leave.
The other two aunts and wives didn't leave, but just stood under the flower tree and sobbed silently, as if Liu Dingmao didn't give an explanation, they wouldn't leave.
"made my brother-in-law laugh - it was because I couldn't govern the family that made these concubines have no rules. Bai Chen smiled at Liu Dingmao.
Liu Dingmao was troubled, where was he in the mood to care about this, he walked a few steps, stopped, and shouted: "Why don't you see anyone coming?" Uncle Zhong, come and help me think of an idea-oh, call Brother Wan's daughter-in-law again, this little woman is a big ghost, and she has a lot of strange ideas. ”
Lao Zhong and Liu Wan appeared at the door, and Liu Wan hurriedly replied: "My daughter-in-law is sick." I can't get up. ”
Bai Chen quietly pouted, he was a little unpleasant to the father and son, the big man's family, usually the little woman messed around, how could she still think about her when she encountered such a big thing? She is just a scheming little woman, she can deliver babies, cure children's headaches and brain fever, and also show women a gynecological disease such as menstrual blood irregularity, to put it bluntly, it is all a little woman's trick, and the doctors and midwives who generally walk the streets and alleys can do it!
Now that such a big thing has happened in the family, why are you still thinking about asking her to participate?
Bai Chen's family really can't stand it, as soon as his sister dies, this family is really not good!
"Brother-in-law, this is a big thing that you men can plan, plan and run—"
Liu Dingmao coughed: "If you can't get up, you can help me over-I really can't carry it over with a sedan chair!
Bai Chen's face turned white with anger. What does this mean? Is it because Liu Dingmao is a big man who has no brains, or does he not take the matter of his brother-in-law seriously at all? I don't pay attention to it, and I don't quickly find a way to find a way, go through the back door, and stuff silver...... Find a teenage daughter-in-law to discuss?
Bai Chen naturally couldn't burst into foul language.
But she scolded her mother fiercely in her heart.
It is estimated that the eighteenth generation of Liu Dingmao's ancestors burned their ears into Luo Tie underground.
When did the affairs of the Liu family be inseparable from a child's daughter-in-law?
It's really not true!
To say that when she first came, she was warmly received by the little woman, checking her pulse, feeding her medicine, feeding her food, and changing her clothes...... Extremely thoughtful. Bai Chen also used to be grateful to the dumb aunt. But as more and more days together, the more she can't get used to her way of acting, too casual, too lazy and too unsophisticated, and retains the stinky habits that she doesn't know where she learned them, not at all like a person who is a daughter-in-law in a wealthy family!
Old Uncle Zhong gave Liu Wan a look and motioned for him to go and call someone.
It's urgent, and it has to be carried over.
Liu Wan turned around a little reluctantly, and just walked out of the door, there were several figures standing in the darkness at the door.
Qian'er and Chang'an were holding the dumb aunt on both sides.
"Didn't you tell you to rest, why did you come by yourself?" Liu Wan was a little annoyed, angry that this woman was too stubborn and didn't take her body seriously, nor did she take what she told seriously.
The dumb aunt tried to break free of the maid's support to walk by herself, but she almost fell down as soon as she took a step, Liu Wan held on in time, pinched her arm fiercely, and scolded in a low voice: "It's really good - this is a bad death-"
"My life has nothing to do with you, it's not your turn to be a little brat!" the dumb aunt sneered.
Liu Wan was stunned, and his body had already followed the dumb aunt into the door.
When Liu Dingmao saw his daughter-in-law coming, he embroidered his fingers: "Are you really sick? Have you taken any medicine? Would you like to get a doctor to take a look?"
Old Uncle Zhong chuckled: "She herself is the best doctor, and she has already taken medicine, but this disease is like a mountain, and it is not a matter of time or a half to get better." ”
Liu Dingmao patted his head, "Also, I'm afraid that we can't find a better gynecology doctor than her in the territory of Lingzhou Mansion at present." It's just that tonight the matter is urgent, and everyone has been called, and we have to discuss it overnight to see what to do tomorrow?"
The second aunt also arrived, entered the door and sat next to the dumb aunt, reached out to touch her forehead, it was a little hot, she pinched one of the dumb aunt's hands and helped her support her body.
"Everyone knows the matter, it's that our uncle-in-law of the Bai family in Qingzhou Mansion called the official mansion suddenly arrested him. It was captured in Elm Alley. Liu Dingmao said, his face flushed in the light.
"Uncle Bai, well, why did the government arrest him? There must be a way to arrest people, right?" the second aunt said with a deep groan.
"Now this situation, everywhere is chaotic, the government is like bandits, if you want to arrest people, you will arrest people, where will you give an explanation! You are used to living a stable life in this mansion behind closed doors, and you don't know the situation outside-" Bai Chen's interface.
Liu Dingmao shook his head in distress: "The most feared place is here, the government only arrests people and does not give you an explanation." It makes people confused and anxious. ”
Uncle Zhong nodded: "Yes, after the information came, I sent someone to Elm Alley to inquire, and several people who gambled together ran away, and they said that the people from the government directly arrested the Bai family's uncle-in-law as soon as they showed up, and the others didn't mention it at all." The little one was afraid that he would not ask in detail, so he brought Li Jiu, who had been there in person, as well. ”
"Li Jiu, come in, is there a person named Avi among these people?" Liu Wan suddenly asked.
Li Jiu walked in at the door, "Young master, how do you know Avi's? There is a guy named Avi, this kid doesn't know where he got rich, and he gambles with a lot of silver." ”
The dumb aunt was so angry that the roots of her teeth itched, "What a scumbag, he actually gambled with the life price of his daughter-in-law and children!"
Liu Wan's voice overshadowed the dumb aunt, and he shouted angrily: "The Bai family's uncle-in-law is really, he actually hangs out with those street gangsters, I know why he was arrested by the government, it must be Avi's mouth that is spreading everywhere and shaking out the true identity of the Bai family's uncle." Since the last fire in the Bai family in Qingzhou Mansion, although the imperial court has not made a clear statement, the local government has issued a pursuit warrant, as long as it finds a live mouth, it will be sent to the official mansion, and there is a bounty, the Bai family's uncle-in-law must have been betrayed!"
Everyone was quiet.
Bai Chen touched his tears and looked at Liu Wan suspiciously: "Even if he is not good, he is also your uncle, how can you arrange him like this, child? ”
Liu Wan was really angry: "Auntie is still defending him? Isn't his temperament really unclear? He is used to messing around outside, and if he doesn't go out for three or five days, he will feel uncomfortable, and his mouth is not strict, and he brags everywhere that he is a rich family in Qingzhou Mansion, but he is just temporarily down, and he also pawns things in our mansion for money! Auntie, don't think that we don't know. This time, it's okay, it's hurt him, and maybe it's all of us!"
Bai Chen was so angry that he was dumbfounded.
But there was nothing to say, because what the nephew said was the truth.
"I'm miserable—" she simply cried.
"If there is really a sister, there must be a sister, a mother crawls out of her belly—" Liu Wan snorted softly. It's a pity that because Liu Dingmao is here, I can't fight against this hypocritical aunt anymore.
The dumb aunt slowly propped up her head and looked at Liu Dingmao, "The matter is urgent, so we won't go around the bend." I'll go straight to the point, the Bai family's uncle's arrest is definitely not ordinary gambling, fighting, brawls or anything else, but the government only caught it when it was accurate. So, his identity must have been exposed. What we have to do now is not to rescue him immediately, but to transfer the remaining population of the Bai family, otherwise early tomorrow morning, the people of the government may come to search, once they find someone on the spot, first, we will be implicated, harboring the imperial court to commit crimes, and the crime will not be light; second, if we are implicated, no one will be able to run for the rescue of the Bai family. Aunt Bai family, quickly find a place to hide overnight, the Liu family can't stay anymore-"
"Then where can we go? In the middle of the night—" Bai Chen was completely panicked and began to cry mournfully.
Suddenly, he rushed over and hugged the dumb aunt's arm, "Good boy, you should think of a way, I know that you are an assertive child, even your father-in-law looks down on you, and our family is about to suffer——"
The dumb girl looked coldly at the woman in front of her.
I can't be happy, and I can't hate it.
This is Bai Ziqi's mother, no matter what, Bai Ziqi's body crawled out of this woman's belly.
Even if she picks on herself a lot these days, at this moment, she still can't watch.
She raised her groggy head and smiled reluctantly: "Auntie, don't worry-"
With a bang, a dark shadow came through the door, "Old, old man—no, the people from the government are here—"
The people from the government are here so soon?!
Footsteps were chaotic, approaching the study, "Don't move—don't move—"
With a loud shout, a large area of firelight surrounded him. Under the butter torches, it was indeed a government official who was fully armed with soap clothes and soap boots.
"Which one is Aunt Tian? The one who claims to be a gynecological fairy hand, come with us!"
Bai Chen was so frightened that he slipped on the ground, but when he heard that he was here to arrest the dumb aunt, his heart fell to the ground, and he barely got up and hid behind people. It's good that I'm not here to catch her.
The dumb aunt smiled bitterly, it was still here that it was time to come.
Liu Dingmao stopped in front: "Everyone, are you mistaken, why did you catch her?"
"It's her - someone died, one corpse and two lives, if you don't arrest her, you can't be angry!"
With the scolding, a thick iron chain shook, shaking his head to cover the dumb aunt, and the two officials pushed: "Go-"
