Chapter 38: The Statue of Guanyin (4)

"Donglan, did you see anyone next to you yesterday?"

Dong Lan said: "I've seen it." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

The old lady said: "Well, when and where you saw this person, you can tell me in detail." ”

"Back to the old lady's words, the slave maid had seen this woman in the kitchen yesterday, and she also bumped into the slave maid, and she was in a hurry, cowering, as if she wanted to do something immoral. She asked the slave where she wanted to go with the green plum soup, and the slave said to go to the old lady's room and give the old lady green plum soup. The slave maid ate a bad stomach at that time, and suddenly her stomach hurt, so she went to the thatched house, and ignored her, who knew that when she came back, the green plum soup that the slave and maid put on the kitchen table was gone. ”

Song raised his head suddenly, looked at Donglan dumbfounded, and shook his head again and again: "No ...... Nothing is the ...... of the sauce purple" (no...... That's not it...... )

Dong Lan interrupted her and said, "It must be this woman who brought the slave's plate of green plum soup and found an excuse to steal things from the old lady's room." ”

Song's eyes widened in horror and shook his head violently. She tugged at Donglan's sleeve and begged her to tell her the truth.

Who knew that Donglan shook off her hand in disgust.

The old lady stopped twisting the Buddha beads and said, "Guanyin seems to have been searched from the Song family's room, and now the human and material evidence is there." Song, what else do you have to say? ”

When the Song family heard this, he kowtowed with a puff: "Sorry for the wrongs, the people of Xiufu are poor." (The concubine was wronged, and asked the lady to see it.) )

"Wronged, you still dare to shout injustice!" the old lady shouted angrily.

"Could it be that people can't even shout a sentence of wrongdoing?" The third lady sneered: "The eldest sister is too strong." ”

When the old lady heard this, her eyelids jumped, and she asked, "Bai, what do you mean?"

"It's not interesting. The third sister is to remind the eldest sister that the Guanyin statue is priceless, and the Song family's crime of stealing is big, if it is a worthless thing, it will be sent to the government to tattoo a word on her face and chop her hands. But the Guanyin statue that Shaoqing gave to the eldest sister is worth a lot of money, according to the law, I am afraid that it will be hanged, and the ancestral rules are probably a dead word. Eldest sister, don't be soft. ”

"Bai Clan, if you still know the rules of your ancestors, then keep some duty. The old lady said politely.

"Third sister, say a few words. The second lady interjected.

"I'm really not afraid. I, Bai Ruolan, have been married to the lord as the third aunt and wife, have I ever committed the rule of seven outs? Have I ever failed to abide by my duties with the four virtues? I have children for the lord, although I have no son, my daughter Huilan is also the daughter-in-law of Lord Wu in the right middle of the sixth grade. Now that the master is gone, what can you Zhao do to me?"

The second lady sighed, this Bai family's hard character can't be changed.

The old lady gritted her teeth and said, "Bai clan, don't deceive people too much. ”

"It's too much to deceive people? I'm afraid I should say that. Your Zhao family is arrogant in the Wen Mansion, all because your old Zhao family was kind to the lord back then, and the lord spoiled you like a treasure, even if you never gave birth to a boy and half a girl to the Wen family, the lord also passed on the son of the Zhou family to you and supported you to be a big lady. Don't ask me to say it too thoroughly, how Zhou died eighteen years ago, I remember it vividly......"

Zhou is Wen Shaoqing's biological mother.

"Enough. Bai Shi, are you going against me now for this?"

The third lady glanced coldly at the Song family, who kept kowtowing, and the skin on her forehead could be broken:

"Why. If I have no relatives and no reason, why should I wade into this troubled water. Zhao, I'm just reminding you that if the person is just gone in your hands, Shaoqing will come back, and according to his temper, the Wen Mansion will not be at peace. In the end, it's not the biological mother and son, Zhao, don't think too highly of yourself. I just want to be clean, is it possible or wrong?"

"You!" the old lady gritted her teeth, and had to swallow it in her stomach. She glanced at Song with hatred, very unwilling.

"Madam," Aunt Sun bowed to the old lady's ear, not slowly, and her voice was just enough for the second lady and the third lady to hear: "This god is very hot, and the sky is going to change, I'm afraid there will be a rainstorm." Let's hurry back to the yard. ”

When the old lady heard this, her eyes flashed, and she raised her voice and said, "Okay, the statues of Guanyin have been found." Dong Lan neglected her duties and went to the steward's room to get ten boards, as for the Song family," she paused, looked at the Song family mercilessly, and said: "The Song family went to the courtyard to kneel and think, without my order, you are not allowed to get up!"

Dong Lan glanced at Madame's face in surprise, and immediately lowered her head: "Yes." "Hurry up and retreat.

Song stopped kowtowing, his thin body was soft, his whole body was shaking badly, and he couldn't speak for a long time, he was frightened.

Aunt Sun instructed: "Drag her to the courtyard and kneel for reflection." ”

The maid next to her hurriedly said, "Yes." ”

"It's all gone. The old lady's sharp eyes scraped the third lady's face like a knife, and she had hated that face for many years, hung the Buddha beads between her wrists, got up, and the maid beside her hurriedly removed the chair.

The third sister retreated first. The third lady was not shocked or annoyed, nor did she look at the people in the room anymore, and walked away.

When Bai walked away, the second lady stood beside the old lady, took a sip, and scolded, "Ahhh I really thought that I had a daughter who married a good family, and it was a shameless slut. Eldest sister, don't be angry, we don't have the same knowledge as her. ”

"I don't blame others," the old lady turned her back to the second lady, watched the Bai family walk away with hatred, and said: "People have the confidence to ride on their heads and spread wild, who let my son not find an official position now, and his son was not born by himself, my family is unconvinced." Your four daughters, huh, not to mention. "Now that the old man is gone, the three of them have been fighting for so many years, and the old lady can't afford to be a snake anymore, who can she show it.

"What's wrong with my daughter...... What's the matter with my daughter......" The second lady muttered, the more she talked, the more she lost confidence.

Although Bai Ruolan has only one daughter, she is indeed good-looking, intelligent and skillful, proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was a famous local talented woman before she got married.

Look at my four fat daughters who are like them, their tempers are still so rough, how can they all come out of a litter, and the difference between themselves and others is so big.

The second lady sometimes can't figure it out. Inadvertently, I saw Song kneeling in the courtyard crying and looking at her, with blood on her forehead, her heart became more and more irritable, and she left quickly with her maid.
