250. Murder of the truth
The truth is that it is true that the carriage matter has something to do with Xiao Xizi, and he wants to ask him for clarification.
The lie is that it is not he who wants to find him, but the second grandmother who wants to find him.
"Off...... What's my business. Xiao Xizi said angrily: "You are not responsible for yourself, but on my head." ”
"Alright, whatever you want. Xiao Liu didn't argue with him: "Second grandma is now sending people everywhere to arrest me, I can't escape, I can only come to you, you find a place for me to hide." ”
"Where do I have a place? You scourge, stay away from me!" Xiao Xizi snorted in disgust, avoiding a little: "Get out!"
"I'll give you silver. Xiao Liu took out a little bit of broken silver from his arms: "You take me to your house to hide for a few days, and when the wind passes, I will leave the city." ”
"Out of the city, don't you want your old mother?" asked Xiao Xizi rhetorically.
"I can't take care of it. If I am caught by the second grandmother and she breaks a leg, will I still be alive?" Xiao Liu said from the bottom of his heart: "You can have pity on me." ”
Xiao Xizi looked at the broken silver, thinking that the opportunity to turn over the book had come, and grabbed it in his hand: "Let's go." Don't say buddies aren't righteous enough. Two days at most, and you'll have to leave after two days. ”
"It's good. Xiao Liu was like a lost dog, and he bent his waist into the third lady's house.
Xiao Xizi lived in the wing next to the stable, and it smelled terrible and messy.
"Hide, don't run out and trouble me. Kiko snorted and took the silver to the casino.
Xiao Liu lay on his bed and fell asleep after a while.
Xiao Xizi didn't come back until the evening, as if she had won money, she was very happy, and called Xiao Liu up from the bed.
Xiao Liu took out a jar of wine: "I went out to buy it just now, please drink it." ”
"You're good. Kiko was very happy.
"Did you win money?" Xiao Liu was really happy for Xiao Xizi: "I heard that you have lost dozens of taels of silver recently." ”
"Not really. Unlucky. Xiao Liu shook the little silver in his hand and smiled: "When you finish drinking, Lao Tzu will raise his spirits and go again tomorrow." ”
He's out early tomorrow morning, so he has to come back in the evening. In case, like Xiao Liu, the master has an accident while driving, it is not a matter of silver, it is a major matter that will cost him his life.
"You've been rich lately, where did you get a few dozen taels of silver? Xiao Liu asked.
Xiao Xizi was stunned for a moment, and then diverted the topic: "Don't talk about this unlucky thing, drink." ”
Two of you, you take a sip, I take a sip, and drink it from the wine jar.
After drinking too much wine, Xiao Liu asked: "Why did the third lady suddenly ask the second grandmother to borrow a carriage a few days ago, I see that your carriage is so good." ”
"What a fart, the axle is broken. "Kiko is slurred.
"Won't you fix it if it's broken?"
"What to repair, I broke it in the first place. Kiko laughed, "I can make it so bad that you can't see it at all." ”
Xiao Liu knew that He Jiaxian's explanation was half done, and continued to ask tentatively: "Why did the third lady ask you to break the carriage?
Although Xiao Xizi was drunk, she was facing a stiff face at the moment: "Don't talk nonsense, the third lady is very good to me, but don't ruin her reputation." ”
Xiao Liu sighed: "Hey, Aunt Mei is also very good to me, but it's a pity that I didn't listen to her some time ago." ”
"You?" Xiao Xizi made a look of sudden realization: "Yes, I just wondered about this matter, but I didn't think of this." ”
He patted his head: "It must be Aunt Mei who can't find you, so that's why I'm looking for me." Otherwise, why would I go to great lengths to break our carriage and yours. ”
"I'll just say it. That's how it makes sense. He pulled Xiao Liu and said seriously: "Hey, you are so stupid, I knew that this matter would still depend on you now, so you shouldn't have rejected Aunt Mei." ”
"I regret it too. So much silver for nothing. Xiao Liu sighed: "It's all my fault for being lazy, thinking that the carriage was fine, and I haven't checked it for several days." ”
This is also the reason why Xiao Xizi dared to tell Xiao Liu the truth. First, even if he broke the carriage, it was only said that it broke when he went to the temple to borrow it that day, and the main responsibility was that Xiao Liu did not inspect it, and he could justify it.
The second is that he is the third lady's person, so he will not be as fatal as Xiao Liu, at most, he found that the carriage was broken and did not tell Xiao Liu, he did not make any big mistakes.
For the sake of insurance, he still looked at Xiao Liu vigilantly: "You won't go to the second grandmother Gaomi." ”
"How can you sue you? You borrowed a carriage and it was broken, and it was nothing more than the third lady paying you some silver. It was my fault that the carriage didn't check before going out, but I was afraid that the second grandmother wouldn't let me go. Xiao Liu was a little frustrated: "If I blame you, I won't find you here." There is an old mother in my family, but I am afraid that I will be watched by the second grandmother a long time ago. ”
He paused, and there was some greedy light in his eyes: "Although I won't go to the informant, but I also need silver to run out of this Yanzhou City, Aunt Mei has given you so much, you should always share a little with me." ”
"It's only fifty taels of silver, and it's all gone!" Xiao Xizi was angry when he mentioned this.
"It's only fifty taels? Xiao Liu couldn't believe it: "When Aunt Mei asked me to do my hands and feet in the carriage and gave me two hundred taels, I didn't do it." ”
Xiao Xizi was even more angry: "Two hundred taels?"
"yes. She promised me that after the matter was completed, she would help me leave Yanzhou City and take my wife with her. Xiao Liu swore an oath: "Otherwise, fifty taels, what will I use to support my mother?"
He approached Xiao Xizi's red face, and looked very angry: "Presumably she is looking at you alone, and it doesn't cost much silver." I'm different, I still have a wife at home who needs to take medicine......"
"Hmph. Xiao Xizi snorted angrily, didn't know what he was thinking, got up and rushed out.
Xiao Liu wiped the cold sweat on his face, the house was dim, and Xiao Xizi had no money to buy an oil lamp, so he could only use the moonlight to see the light, he was really afraid that he would see that he was weak-hearted.
He Jiaxian only explained two things to him, first, it was Aunt Mei's instructions. Second, sow discord.
Although he didn't say it very well, Xiao Xizi was obviously a fool, three or two cups of cat pee, he didn't know the world, and he said it all in a few words.
In the grange, He Jiaxian fell asleep, and the moonlight shone on her quiet and fair face.
Fang Qirui hurried over when he heard the news, and just entered the house at this moment.
Sydney was waiting outside the house, and she had already made everything clear, but she didn't say anything except that the second grandmother suspected Aunt Mei's hand.
She wondered why the second grandmother had not explained to the second master what Aunt Mei had done.
It's just that she doesn't say anything, and she doesn't dare to say it easily.
The second grandmother said it was an accident, so she could only tell the second master that it was an accident.
Fang Qirui reached out and touched her leg, which was tightly bandaged.
He Jiaxian was slightly painful, woke up, and a flash of relief flashed in his eyes: "It's here!"
"Yes. You rest first, and we'll go back together tomorrow. Fang Qirui was shocked when he heard the announcement, and threw half of the business he talked about there.
After being in pain for a long time, He Jiaxian was already exhausted, so he only forced a few perfunctory words with Fang Qirui, but fell asleep again.
Early the next morning, two gorgeous and bright carriages, with thick pillows, took He Jiaxian back to Tinglan Courtyard. Sydney was accused of staying at the Grange to collect rent.
As soon as Ran Ran saw He Jiaxian's appearance, he couldn't help wiping his tears: "Mother, what's wrong?"
Qi Niangzi looked at He Jiaxian, and stopped talking.
After comforting Ran Ran and Fang Baokun, He Jiaxian left Qi Niangzi down, asked Ran Ran about the current situation, and then said: "I am like this now, and many things in the yard have to be let go." There are not many people around me who have to use it, and Sydney stays in the Grange, but on this side, I can only ask Mr. ”
Qi Niangzi hurriedly and respectfully agreed.
told Ding Yue politely, and took Zhen Xiang to go back first.
Ding Yue looked at He Jiaxian's leg and said angrily: "What an accident, there must be someone with bad intentions." How could a good carriage fall apart and fall apart like that? ”
She stared at He Jiaxian: "You have always had no quarrel with the world, who is so ruthless and wants to put you to death?"
Ding Yue's sentence was fatal, and only then did he reveal the cruelty of this plan.
In the early days, He Jiaxian didn't think so, but he just felt that Aunt Mei probably held a grudge and bought off the third lady to target her.
After all, since she took over Gongzhong, she has not been as generous as Aunt Mei in terms of accounts and silver withdrawals. Even if you make clothes, buy rice and food, etc., eighty percent of the new tables are too old and have to be replaced with new ones, she feels that it is extravagant and wasteful, so she does not allow it.
Who would have expected that the carriage would collapse from the bottom, and she and Sydney would leak directly.
The support beam at the bottom end is broken in two.
If it weren't for the fact that he happened to be in the mud, I was afraid that it would not only be my legs that were pressed, but the injury would not be so light.
Aunt Mei was bent on her suspicion of the third lady.
He Jiaxian didn't think so.
The third lady is a human being, and she is the most profitable and avoids the disadvantaged, and it is impossible to kill her because of a little bit of silver. There is not such a deep hatred between them.
Probably Aunt Mei's idea is that if she dies, there is no proof of death, and she just pushes it on the third lady.
He Jiaxian pursed the corners of his mouth. She has always been the most afraid of death, and she can't get along with her life, so don't blame her for not being able to get along with her at all.
It's just that I think so, but the means are still to be discussed.
"The person who harmed me is the biological mother of the second master, and the second master deliberately doesn't want us to fight, so I can only endure it. He Jiaxian sighed.
"What's so difficult about that?" Ding Yue seemed to see what He Jiaxian wanted to ask, and gave her guidance with a smile: "My lord has a concubine, born in a scholarly family, it is a crepe, one can cry and fight for love." But so what, this kind of person, ordinary Suli just likes to pretend to be generous and generous, and he is more polite and honest than me. Since she didn't lose anything in the big festival, I vomited her to death in the small things. She cried more than she cried, and then she defended her everywhere. After a long time, she cried again, saying that I was bullying her, and the master didn't believe it anymore. ”
He Jiaxian was thoughtful.
Ding Yue only felt that He Jiaxian, who had always been loyal and honest, had a cold light flashing in his eyes, which was extinguished in an instant, and he couldn't help but shudder.
He Jiaxian was recuperating in the house, and there was no time to arrange many things at home.
All of a sudden, there was chaos.
Aunt Mei took action at the right time to solve the situation.
Sydney wanted to come out, but was stopped by He Jiaxian, and said lightly: "She loves to take care of it, let her take care of it." ”
It didn't take long for Ah Xiu to walk sideways in the house.
He Jiaxian wanted to drink a bowl of bird's nest porridge, but the people in the kitchen hesitated for a while before saying, "The bird's nest is gone, so I have to know Aunt Mei to buy it again." ”
Mengli said angrily: "Then don't go quickly." ”
The cook cried with a sad face: "Aunt Mei said that in winter, the house has to tailor clothes, and we have to store grain, and we have to make a profit for us, and the silver can't be turned over for a while." You can only save a little. ”
Province. In Aunt Mei's eyes, there has never been such a word.
He Jiaxian smiled and didn't mention it, but endured it.
When the wound got better day by day, but it dragged on until there was no big movement after the winter, Fang Qirui frowned: "Why can't you still go to the ground?
Sydney said aggrievedly: "Aunt Mei said that there is a shortage of silver in the house, and there are many expenses in winter, so we are not allowed to use all the good ingredients." The second grandmother's injury, where can it be healed. ”
Fang Qirui frowned.
He Jiaxian grabbed him and comforted him softly: "My aunt is also very troublesome, and the silver in the public is not too much now, so it is not as rich as the previous days......
Fang Qirui's brows furrowed even tighter.
Sydney interjected angrily: "What's the trouble." Her fox fur coat is enough to buy as much ginseng as she can for her second grandmother. ”
He Jiaxian scolded Sydney: "What are you talking about? I'm not a housekeeper, how can you see those hard things." ”
Sydney sneered to the side.
Fang Qirui told her to take care of her and went out.
The two thieves looked at each other, and couldn't help laughing.
He Jiaxian got up and stood on the ground, asked Sydney to come and help, and tried to walk a few steps.
Sydney said with a smile: "Before, the slave maid always felt that the second grandmother was not like a person who should live in such a big mansion, but now she is a little similar. ”
He Jiaxian was stunned for a moment and asked Sydney: "Then how did you think of me before?"
Sydney replied honestly: "At that time, the second grandmother, well, was the person here, but the heart was not here." There is no quarrel with the world, and there is no future in sight. She paused: "Now there are a little more fireworks, and a little more of the bearing of the housekeeper." ”
Does it mean that she has finally melted into the atmosphere of the house fight?
He Jiaxian smiled dumbly.
Hearing the footsteps outside, He Jiaxian hurriedly jumped on the low couch in a few steps and lay still.
Fang Qirui came in and threw a brocade box to Sydney: "Go and boil medicine for the second grandmother." ”
Inside, however, is a fine, thumb-thick mountain ginseng.
Sydney went happily.
He Jiaxian said again: "I'm just afraid that I will have to raise it until next year, what about the marriage of the fourth brother?"
What can be done, only Aunt Mei can do it.
When Aunt Mei learned about this, she was so angry that she died.
She said why Miss Mei didn't come back after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and wrote to ask, but there was no news.
Originally, it wasn't very close, but she thought that Miss Mei was probably still young, and she was attached to her parents and refused to come.
