Chapter 246 Design (5)
To say, in this ancestral hall where the wind gusts and the sun does not see the sun, there are tablets and incense candles, which is originally a bit cold. In addition, there is an exclamation from time to time today, and everyone's hearts will inevitably go up and down, how can it not make people feel chilled and creepy!
At this moment, everyone followed the screams, and sure enough, another strange scene appeared in front of everyone.
Taking advantage of Shen Mu's words, the large group of ants had already bypassed the corpses of the two centipedes at this moment, and lined up from both sides and walked directly to the front of the offering table.
The two neat columns were strange, as if there was something in front of them that was directing their direction and course. Everyone was amazed, and they all stared at this group of little things without blinking.
Shen Mohong spoke again: "Father, grandmother, look at these ants, this route is so firm and straight, and orderly, I'm afraid that the ancestors still show it!"
Shen Mu was a little drumming in his heart, but he didn't respond.
Sure enough, the ants quickly took their own seats on the table and stopped.
"Father, look," it was Brother Hong who spoke, "it seems to be a word!"
Hearing about such a strange thing, even the clan uncles who were standing behind came to check on it.
"Yes...... It's a 'wrong' word!" Brother Hong's voice trembled and frightened slightly, as if he couldn't believe it.
"Wrong?" When Shen Moyun heard this, he immediately turned pale, and rushed to the offering table with an excited face.
Isn't this just the word "injustice"? The offering table is peachwood-colored, and the ants' inky black bodies stop on it, and the color difference is strong. According to the formation of the ants, isn't it just a big "injustice" word with a big purpose?
In the stunned eyes of everyone, Shen Moyun knew that the time had come.
She stepped forward. Directly the whole person fell to the offering table and knelt down. When she thought of what happened to her mother, she burst into tears.
"Mother, why did Mother show a word of injustice? Mother, what grievances does Mother have to complain about? Mother, did she see the ant colony sent by the ancestors to report the news, so she deliberately drove them to shout grievances to everyone and the ancestors?" Shen Moyun's voice in this quiet ancestral hall was as shocking as a pearl falling from a jade.
Only then did everyone react, and the place where the ants surrounded the word was exactly in front of Qin Lan's tablet. No matter how you look at it, it seems that Qin Lan is using this ant colony to mean something.
"Is it possible...... Could it be Aunt Xia. Did Aunt Xia do something to you? So, she can't afford to light a good peace incense, and she can't worship it? So. You don't want her to bow down and refuse to accept her salutes, so you want to lead the ant colony to put up a word, and draw out your grievances in front of everyone?"
Shen Moyun didn't give anyone a chance to interrupt her. Almost finished this passage in one breath.
Everyone couldn't help but gasp. The ghosts and gods say that if you believe this kind of thing, you will believe it, and if you don't believe it, you won't believe it, but today's things are really weird, so that people have to believe it a little. At the beginning, it was just that after Aunt Xia came up to worship, strange things happened one after another, and even the poisonous insects and ant colonies came, which is somewhat unreasonable.
Time. Many people looked at Xia Hongsilk's gaze with some scrutiny and measurement. To say, even Xia Hongsilk really did something. It has nothing to do with others. But whoever calls today the day of ancestor worship, a little bit of inappropriateness may have a great impact on the fortune of the coming year.
Insects are in the letter, which is a big deal!
This made several uncles who were also members of the Shen family a little uneasy.
"Aunt Xia, what do you have to distinguish?" The one who spoke was the old lady's younger brother, because he had also joined the government and been a Beijing official, he was still very talkative in the family!
Aunt Xia complained bitterly in her heart, and it was just that others couldn't see it clearly in the game. But at this moment, she clearly felt that this thing was coming for herself! How could there be so many ghosts and gods in this world, so many coincidences? If Qin Lan had the ability, she should come to find herself when she was alive! Where would she come up with this kind of trick many years after her death? Shen Moyun is good at acting, and even Brother Hong is also playing with her? Brother Hong, who is usually taciturn, has so many words today, can't she be stupid?
However, Qin Lan has been dead for many years, and he wants to drag her into the water just on these trumped-up charges? Is Shen Moyun too stupid or is there something he hasn't thought about yet?
Xia Hongsilk didn't have time to think too much, so she hurriedly threw herself into the performance. Her little face suddenly turned pale, her big eyes were covered with a faint mist, revealing innocence and horror, and her thin red lips trembled slightly, interpreting "I see pity" in three points.
She immediately sat down on the ground, and met Shen Mu with her watery eyes, her voice trembled, and her whole person was like a frightened rabbit: "Master! The concubine doesn't know anything! How can these insects and ants run rampant because of the concubine? The concubine has always done good deeds and accumulated virtues, and even a mosquito dare not shoot it to death! How could it be possible to do anything bad to her sister? The concubine has been wronged! The master must make a clear decision!"
Shen Mu's favorite thing on weekdays is Xia Hongsilk's soft and helpless expression, at this time, his heart immediately softened a lot, he looked pity, and just wanted to step forward to help Xia Hongsilk, but it was Shen Mu's uncle who came up to stop him:
"Nephew! This matter is related to the fortune of the family! It is better to be safe!" As soon as the old man spoke, the rest of the uncles also spoke.
Shen Mu glanced at the injustice words that were still eye-catching on the offering table, and couldn't help but feel a little stunned in his heart, facing the misty eyes of the beauty's tears, and suddenly felt distressed.
"Master, sister, this offering table must not have been wiped clean, or ......" Xia Hongsu secretly glanced at Shen Moyun, who was still mourning, "Could it be...... The girl was greedy and accidentally left honey and the like on the table? But the eldest lady actually said it conclusively, and insisted that this matter was related to the concubine, and the concubine was not convinced! The eldest lady slandered me like this, but she didn't like me as a stepmother...... Could it be that he didn't want the old man to straighten out the concubine's body, so he did this?"
Shen Moyun's remarks about Xia Hongsilk were naturally "very surprised":
"Aunt Xia! You slander me like this! Father! Grandmother! Elders! Aunt Xia is really full of quibbles! Anyone can do something about this today, but I can't do it myself! This is my mother's tablet, my mother is living peacefully, and I am happier than anyone else! How could I do such a thing because I don't like Aunt Xia? Secondly, everyone knows that I have been lying in bed for many days, and most of the family affairs have been handed over to my aunt, and Shen Moyun doesn't understand anything about this ancestral hall, so the matter is all in charge of my aunt! I and my maid haven't set foot in this ancestral hall for half a step!"
Although Shen Moyun was full of righteous indignation, the provocation in her eyes Xia Hongsu became more and more distinct! This girl is thoughtful and never fights uncertain battles, but she is afraid that there will be a powerful move!
