Chapter 39: The Statue of Guanyin (5)

A few muffled thunders rolled over, and Song looked up at the sky with teary eyes, dark clouds were thick, and the black pressure was so suffocating that people couldn't breathe. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Smack. Her face was cold, and a drop of rain hit her cheek.

Immediately afterwards, large raindrops began to drip one after another. In the blink of an eye, the rain curtain had become a downpour.

His cheeks were already swollen, and the Song family knelt in the courtyard of the ancestral hall, facing the ancestors of the Wen family enshrined in the ancestral hall, and muttered inarticulately: "Wronged...... Wronged ......"

One by one, the cold tablets are solemnly enshrined in the ancestral hall. No one answered her, and the rain blurred her vision.

From time to time, the voice of the Song family sobbing and crying came from the courtyard of the ancestral hall: "Wronged...... A concubine is wronged......"

Song knelt in the Wen family ancestral hall for two days and one night, during which time no one dared to bring her anything to eat.

Everyone knows that the eldest lady has not spoken now, and if anyone goes, they will be punished, and even more seriously, they may end up with the Song family.

On the third day, Song finally couldn't hold it anymore and passed out on the ground unconscious. The family guarding the compound hurriedly reported to Steward Zhang.

When Steward Zhang went to the courtyard of the eldest lady to report the news, the eldest lady was chanting Buddha in the Buddhist hall in the backyard, and when she heard the news, she did not open her eyes, and ordered her subordinates to carry Song back to the courtyard where she lived.

Steward Zhang bowed down and asked tentatively, "Madam, do you want Zhang Luo to have a doctor to take a look at Song's illness?"

Presumably the Song family was infected with the wind cold, and in the past few days, I heard that no one dared to give her food, and her iron body couldn't hold it. Although it is said that she can't live because of her own sins and steals the statue of Guanyin, she can't stand it anymore. When he went to see it this morning,

When the eldest lady heard what Steward Zhang said, she stopped knocking on the wooden fish and said, "I want to come to Zhang Zhide, you are the old man in the house." The most trusted person in the old man's life is also you, Zhang Zhide, how many years have you been in Fuzhong now?"

Steward Zhang didn't expect his wife to ask him this, so he hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Don't dare, Zhide can serve the old lady as a dog and horse, which is Zhide's blessing." The old man is kind to the Zhide family, and it is difficult for Zhide to repay this kindness. Zhide has been in the government for more than 20 years now. ”

"For more than 20 years," the eldest lady opened the Buddhist scriptures, and the emerald wrench on her finger was shining: "It's time to retire." I remember that your wife died of illness and you had two children. Aunt Sun, let the account room give Steward Zhang two hundred and fifty silver taels to wrap around, and let Steward Zhang return to his hometown to live in his old age. ”

Aunt Sun: "Yes." ”

Steward Zhang panicked, knelt down and said, "This ...... Madam, Zhide has been in the Wen Mansion for more than 20 years, and he has already developed feelings for the Wen Mansion......"

Seeing that the eldest lady's face was getting worse and worse, Aunt Sun stepped forward and said, "It's a good thing for Madam to let you go back to your hometown and reunite with your children." Why, the slave still doesn't listen to his master? Could it be that he still wants to die in the Wen family with a dead face?"

Steward Zhang opened his mouth, but he was speechless. This grandmother is the eldest lady's cow ghost and snake god, and her speech is also very poisonous, and she pokes knives into people's soft hearts. The eldest lady wants to drive him away, I'm afraid that the wooden board will set the nails, and he will be iron-hearted, hey, Steward Zhang sighed, and just said: "Zhang Zhide...... Mrs. Xie's fulfillment!"

There are two housekeepers in Wen Mansion. Before the old man's death, he followed the old man to serve, big and small things were in his charge, after the old man died, the young master had a new person around him, nothing to do with him, the king housekeeper was in charge of the front yard, he had to take care of the backyard.

Steward Wang is also a kind man.

As the days passed, he was often busy with the trivial matters in hand, and it was good to go to the old man's cemetery to talk to the old man. Some time ago, he heard that Steward Wang was expelled from the house by his wife, he was still very surprised, although he didn't know what the reason was, but now he didn't expect it to be his turn. I looked forward and backward to make cattle and horses for Wenfu, but I didn't expect it to end up the same as Steward Wang.

Steward Zhang followed Aunt Sun to the account room to get a plate of money, shook his head and went to pack his things and leave.

"Ahem...... Ahem...... "The body was hot, the heat was so uncomfortable that Song was lying on the bare bed, half-asleep and half-awake talking nonsense.

Dong Lan shrunk and pulled the maid next to her: "Huazhi, do you think she will die like this?"

Song's complexion is indeed a little scary, his eyes are covered with dark circles, his face is white and blue, his lips are chapped, his cheeks are swollen high, his body is thin and petite, and he doesn't know if he can hold it or not.

Hua Zhi looked at the Song family: "Probably not, it looks like it's just a cold." The eldest lady instructed that she should not be allowed to find a doctor to see her. ”

Huazhi is Aunt Sun's girl, and the news is very reliable. I didn't expect the eldest lady to be so intolerant of the Song family, looking at the current tragic situation of the Song family, Donglan couldn't help but shudder: "Aunt Sun came to take away her bedding just now, didn't the old lady make her sick even worse......

"Shh," Hua Zhi covered her mouth, "Be quiet, why is Donglan's mouth so big, if you let Aunt Sun know, you will be punished." Aunt Sun said, this is the Song family's own finding, who taught her to dare to steal the old lady's Guanyin statue, that is the birthday gift given by Young Master Qing to the old lady. ”

"I'm not ...... yet," Donglan underestimated.

"A poor daughter's life is a poor life. A few days ago, I couldn't get used to seeing the Song family climb the high branches of Young Master Qing, but now I see her end up like this, tsk, it's better to be a girl. Donglan, the Song family took your soup plate to the eldest lady's room that day, and stole your limelight in front of the eldest lady without your consent, why didn't I see you running to her house to make trouble, it's not like your temperament, hehe. ”

"I ...... Donglan looked left and right, and said something else: "Huazhi, this meal is delivered, do you want to feed the Song family or just leave it here and wait for her to get up and eat by herself?"

"Hey her, why, she is not a serious young lady, aunt and wife, if it is about identity, she is the same as us, no matter how bad my life is, I will not serve a maid, and now she still steals the old lady's Guanyin statue," Huazhi was a little disgusted: "Really, if it were me, now it is well known, I will simply find a strong beam and a rope to break it myself." Donglan, you want to feed, you go and feed it. ”

Also, serving a maid, Donglan straightened her chest: "Hmph, I'm not going." After speaking, she glanced at the Song family with some weakness.

"Aunt Sun said that I was asked to deliver the meal so that everyone around me knew that the eldest lady sent someone to deliver the food. Originally, the Song family committed a serious crime, but the eldest lady just punished her for kneeling, and specially sent her food, reflecting the kindness of our eldest lady's sympathy for her subordinates," said, Hua Zhi straightened her voice and said loudly: "Song, the eldest lady said that you have knelt in front of the ancestral hall in the past few days and repented, and the eldest lady has not pursued you for stealing the Guanyin statue, this is the porridge and vegetables sent by the eldest lady, and they are placed here." ”

Song was lying on the bed trembling all over, talking nonsense, but did not react.
