Chapter 391: Tough
"Mrs. slandered the concubine like this, are you forcing the concubine to die immediately?"
In the midst of the crowd's discussions, the woman's eyes flashed, and she suddenly raised her head and cried out in a sad voice. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
When everyone was drawn back to attention by this shout, and stopped looking at her, she cried again, and the pear blossom with the rain looked even more lonely:
"Mrs., the concubine, was sold to the Sun family since she was a child, her husband died, and she was tortured by her in-laws' family all day long, and later they said that the concubine's life was hard, so she threw the concubine body in the mountains and forests to die, and then she was taken captive to the bandits' den, and after a while, I was fortunate to meet Lord Bai, and it was a ...... The concubine is really not such a shameless, water-based poplar person!"
The woman stopped at this, glanced at Li cautiously, wiped her tears, and gently put her hands on her bulging lower abdomen:
"When the concubine first started, she didn't know that she had this child in her womb...... Besides, Lord Bai has confessed to the concubine, and his wife's temperament is ...... has a strong temperament, so don't let the concubine come...... But the concubine is really helpless now...... They want to sink the concubine's body into the pond, and the concubine's death is nothing, but the concubine's body really can't bear to let the adult's flesh and blood die with the concubine's body! I just ask the wife to let the concubine enter the door, and when she gives birth to a child, the concubine's body will kill herself, and she will never make the wife angry! If the wife does not allow the concubine to enter the door today, the concubine will have no way to live, and can only die in front of this door, which can be regarded as an explanation to the white lord!"
As she spoke, the woman kowtowed to the ground a few more times, and her pleading appearance suddenly moved several women with compassion.
They all feel that this woman's life is also bitter, and besides, Li's jealousy is a well-known thing in Hongnong County, and Bai Bingxiong's explanation of this woman is really reasonable.
In these years, the man has three wives and four concubines, and he thinks that Bai Bingxiong is also a figure with a head and face in Hongnong County, and now he has been promoted to General Dingyuan, and he has endured the Li family for so many years, and it seems that he doesn't want to endure it anymore, so he has this one, but in the end, the Li family has been jealous for many years, and some prestige is there, Bai Bingxiong didn't dare to bring people home directly.
At this time, it must be that the paper can't contain the fire, so people came to the door.
Well, it must be so, many people automatically make up for it.
So a family next door to the Bai family's house rushed out to see the lively woman walked up to Li's side and persuaded half-truthfully:
"Xian'e, it's just that you are jealous on weekdays, at this juncture, you must not be confused! Your family Bai is also a lot older, isn't a son thin? We should be generous and virtuous, and it is common for men to have three wives and four concubines, but you can't just let Lord Bai's blood flow outside, you still have to take people in, and when the child is born in the future, I will also call you a mother, and your family Bai will also remember your goodness!" Lord Bai is also a general after all, you can't help but give him face, and you can live like before!"
When Li heard the woman crying, she was already full of coldness, and at this time, she heard someone persuade her to take the black pot for her husband, and when she turned around, she swept her eyes and forced the woman back a few steps.
"I don't know, Mrs. Zhou still has such a heart, so why don't you take more concubines for your family Lord Zhou? Why did you still collect a room for your Lord Zhou and catch him with blood marks all over his face?"
Since people came to meddle in her family's affairs, Li also unceremoniously went back, and blocked Mrs. Zhou, who had forgotten her own affairs after watching the excitement, so that her heart ached.
The woman who was also persuaded by Li before, and was also scolded by Li, also came to her senses, pulled Mrs. Zhou's sleeve, and sneered at Li:
"Li Xian'e, don't be too rampant! Okay, okay, if you have the ability today, you won't let people in, and see that your family Lord Bai won't settle accounts with you when he comes back!"
Mrs. Zhou covered her heart and nodded again and again, she didn't believe it, there are still cats in the world who don't steal fish! Since the Li family is so disobedient, then she is waiting to see what fate a woman like the Li family can end!
In fact, Li was fierce on his face, and he was really desolate and confused in his heart - was this little widow talking nonsense and slandering her husband, or did her husband really have something to do with this little widow......
She Li Xian'e has been strong all her life, but now she is beaten in the stomach like this and slapped her in the face!
For a while, the grievances and sadness accumulated over so many years of hardship suddenly came to mind, and even in an instant, he had a deep resentment towards his husband who was not at home all the year round......
"Mother, what's going on?"
Suddenly, he heard a soft call, and the Li family, who was full of confusion and sadness, was immediately pulled back to his senses, and when he turned around, he saw his son Bai Xianghuan walking to his side.
Although Bai Xianghuan has not been studying all day these days like before, he still has to run to the county school when he is free, and when he just went home, he saw the messy scene in front of his house, and directly walked through the crowd to Li's side, and helped Li with a confused and sad expression.
Li Shi froze, and his confused eyes instantly returned to clarity and coldness, no matter what kind of person her husband is, she will never let people enter the door of the Bai family like this today!
Even if Bai Bingxiong wants to take a concubine, then he must be clear and clear, and give her a piece of paper and a letter to get her wish!
She Li Xian'e has worked hard for him to manage the inner house for so many years, but she doesn't have to swallow her anger, serve a husband with others, and suffer from these idle people!
"Someone came to the door to make trouble and tried to slander us. Li straightened his mind, explained to his son lightly, and turned around to greet the person in charge who came out.
"Someone, send her to the yamen. ”
Steward Chen followed behind his wife, he was also surprised, it stands to reason that the old man is never such a person, but this woman said that she has a nose and eyes, he is afraid that his wife will be soft-hearted for a while, and he will take this woman into the door, and when the old man comes back, he will no longer be able to tell, and he is afraid that if it is really the heir of the master, it will be inappropriate not to let him enter the door.
But I didn't expect that my wife was simply neat and straightforward, and she directly sent it to the yamen!
Steward Chen's brows suddenly widened, and he bowed down and responded, "Yes!
Right and wrong, let the official master decide!
Seeing Steward Chen walking towards her with a few mothers-in-law, the woman reacted and panicked, sitting on the ground and waving her arms to dodge again and again: "Madam, the concubine is pregnant with an adult's child, you can't do this to me!"
"Who is the child you are carrying, our lord is not at home, just with your mouth, I can't just detain this unknown child on our lord, who knows if you are desperate and want to accuse our lord, send you to the yamen first, at least the people of your husband's family, but no one dares to go to the yamen to harm you, as for our lord's ......"
Li Shi walked down the steps in front of the gate, leaned down and looked at the woman, with coldness in his eyes: "Before this, you have to think about it, our master is now a general of Dingyuan from the third grade, and he can't be blamed casually, if the child in your womb is not our master's in the end, then you are a capital crime to lose your head!"
The woman winced.
Li's eyes flashed, and he had a good idea in his heart, and he didn't say anything more to her, and turned around to leave.
The woman pounced on her and grabbed the corner of Li's skirt: "Madam, you really want to put your concubine to death, how can you be so vicious?"
"Am I vicious?"
Li Shi lowered his head, glanced at the woman who lived in the corner of her skirt in disgust, and then glanced at the stunned Mrs. Zhou, raised his foot and pulled out the corner of his skirt, and smiled:
"If I am vicious, I should throw you into the mountains and forests to fend for yourself like your husband's family, after all, if you enter the door of my Bai family, but you are the slave of our Bai family, no one dares to say that I am not a word about what I do with you!"
The woman fell to the ground stunned and froze, and couldn't help but feel a little remorseful in her heart - she thought that Bai Bingxiong was not at home, and the matter of this child was not clear in any case, no matter how powerful this Li was, she had to take care of her reputation to let her enter the door, but she didn't expect that this Li was not only fierce and jealous, but also really a person who didn't care about reputation at all!
"You, how can you not have a reputation at all......"
A little sister she knew was now a concubine in a big family, and it was said that the housewife of that family was afraid that people would say that she was jealous, so she treated this concubine with good food and drink, and did not dare to occupy the old man......
"Reputation? Then before you came to the door, didn't you go out to inquire about my Li Xian'e's reputation?"
Li sneered, and then said:
"You can not be disgraceful and steal the man and then come to harm our master's reputation, but now tell me what reputation, it's really ridiculous! If you want to say that your husband's family is really not vicious at the beginning, if you really want to be vicious, then you should be sold directly, and you can get a few money back, maybe you can also do what you want, and find you a big family as a concubine as soon as possible, don't you say? You just have to rest assured, if the official master of the yamen really judges you to be the master of our family, then I will go to the people of your husband's family, spend a few taels of silver, and buy you as our Bai family's concubine, and in the future, put it in the palm of my hand and stay well, what do you think?"
Sentence after sentence, the woman's face turned from white to blue - what good could such a who didn't even want fame get if it fell into her hands?
It wasn't until the mothers-in-law brought by Steward Chen grabbed her hands and feet and wanted to take her away that she suddenly woke up and shouted:
"No, I'm not going to the yamen, I want to see the old lady, I want to see the old lady!"
This wants to kill her, but Bai Bingxiong's mother will definitely be reluctant to give up her grandson!
Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he couldn't help but look at her with admiration, this was still an idea.
However, this is in front of the Bai family, and it provokes her, but she can't help it!
She waved her hand and motioned for Steward Chen to take it away, but Bai Xianghuan stopped her with a loud voice: "Wait!"
Li Shi turned his head in surprise and looked at his son suspiciously, could it be that his son was a solid-eyed man, and he really thought that the child in this woman's womb belonged to his father?
Bai Xianghuan held his mother's hand and signaled her to be calm and not impatient, before instructing Steward Chen:
"Not only to send it to the yamen, but also to call her husband's family, after all, she is still a member of that family, so it is unreasonable not to make such a fuss and not alarm her husband's family. ”
looked at the Li family again, with a deep meaning in his eyes: "Besides, Song County Ling is afraid that he is not familiar with the affairs of these clans in our Hongnong County, and everyone is still called Qi, what is there to say." ”
When Li Shi heard this, he felt a little surprised.
It once made her think that the son with an elm head could think more about it when something happened, which is really rare!
Her heart was filled with resentment and hatred just now, but she really forgot about the county commander Song Wende.
In the past, there was nothing to do, but since the beginning of the spring this year, I don't know where he made a conflict with him, he is in trouble with his own family everywhere, and now that the master is not at home, he is not embarrassed to come to the door to find trouble, but if this person is sent to the yamen, how will it be broken, it is almost impossible to think about it.
The son is thinking of calling this woman's husband's family, at least, if this woman wants to enter the Bai family's door satisfactorily, I'm afraid it will not be so easy.
In this area of Yuzhou, everything is much more useful for the clan than the government!
Li Shi was very pleased, and nodded hurriedly: "It should be like this, Steward Chen, remember to go to the yamen with the people of her husband's family!"
Steward Chen listened to the reasonableness of his wife and the eldest young master, so he took the woman as instructed, and although the woman was very struggling and unwilling, she was firmly restrained by several mothers-in-law, but she did not hurt her, and cried unwillingly all the way.
"Mother, don't worry, my son will send you back to the house first, and my son will go to the yamen to deal with this matter in person after a while. ”
Bai Xianghuan has been studying lately, helping the Li family to take care of family affairs, and gradually understanding the hard work of his mother, and he has learned a lot of human feelings, and now when he encounters this matter, he secretly decides that no matter what, he can't let his mother support him alone, he is the eldest son in the family, and his father is not there, so he has to set up a door.
The Li family has mixed feelings, and has raised this son for more than 20 years, and now he really feels like a son has grown up.
Those onlookers didn't expect the Li family to be so tough, and they didn't want to cover up such an ugly thing, but they wanted to make trouble in the yamen, and they all gasped, and Mrs. Zhou had all kinds of feelings in her heart.
She messed with her master all day long, and she couldn't stop him from looking for those fox spirits, what confidence does Li Xian'e have to do things so desperately?
Before Li entered the door, he also glanced back at Mrs. Zhou, but he didn't say anything more.
This is also a hard-working person whose husband can't control his heart, and she doesn't want to worry about her anymore.
After sending the Li family back to the house, Bai Xianghuan went straight to the yamen.
The woman's husband's family was called, which also shows that the woman has misbehaved on weekdays since her husband's death, and has some heads and tails with several idlers.
originally wanted to find her an honest family, thinking that she would not dislike her bad reputation, but she disliked the poor family of the remarried person, and ran away from home without waiting for the day.
