Chapter 18: The Price of Justice
Rui'er died a miserable death, Xin'er is a little girl, she has no skills, so she naturally can't find out the truth, no matter how sad and sad she is, she can only secretly burn more paper money for Rui'er, and by the way, curse the black-hearted mastermind behind the scenes.
When the eldest lady had an accident, the rumor of the haunting was spread, and Xin'er suddenly had an idea, thinking that it would be better to pretend to be a ghost to scare those who did evil.
Born in the troupe, she was already quicker than ordinary people, so she stepped on stilts, wore Rui'er's old clothes, and sang the mountain songs that Rui'er taught her before when she saw the opportunity.
A few days ago, Yuan Pingbo led people to ambush, because of a bunch of big men, the young maids were naturally hinted that they were not allowed to come out and walk around, and she was in the same room with everyone, and it was not easy to find a chance to steal out.
Today, the moon is dark and the wind is high, and she can't help it, so she came out, and she didn't expect to be ambushed.
Su Yiqing was speechless, I don't know whether to say that this girl is smart, or stupid, she was born in an opera troupe, she has watched a lot of dramas, she is ignorant and fearless, she is quite pitiful when she thinks about it, she has no father and no mother, it is estimated that she regards Rui'er as her own sister, her sister died so miserably, how can she be indifferent as a sister, she is young, and it is normal for people to think about it.
Seeing Xin'er's face full of grievances, she babbled about how kind Rui'er was and how innocent she died.
Su Yiqing suddenly couldn't help but say: "Do you know that the maids and mothers-in-law around Miss Su Ba in the fourth room have been sent away, and one of the maids hanged herself in Xiao Zhuangzi?"
Xin'er stopped, of course she knew about it, the housekeeper's mother used this matter to educate them about these little maids, the master did something wrong, if the subordinates did not stop them desperately, in the end it was the next person who was unlucky, Miss Eight insulted Miss Nine, and the grandmother and maid around her should have stopped at that time, not to mention that the Miss's subordinates are different from each other, seven or eight people really have a heart, where can they not control Miss's mouth.
However, everyone was afraid that the young lady would be punished afterwards, so they didn't say anything, and they were sent away together.
Some of them also secretly said that Miss Nine was not, saying that if Miss Nine hadn't made such a big fuss, Mrs. Tai would not have been so angry, Miss Nine was too vicious at a young age.
Su Yiqing said slowly: "I didn't get angry with the eighth sister, I was just unhappy for Brother Ming, Brother Ming is my brother, just like you believe that Rui'er is a good person, I also believe that Brother Ming is a good person, so I want to take the opportunity to make trouble and find out about this matter, but it turned out to be one more life, so far I don't know what the name of the hanged maid is, maybe one day she will also have a sister like you who will run out to seek revenge on me." ”
Xin'er is twelve years old, she was born in the rivers and lakes with the opera troupe since she was a child, and she was the lowest little maid, so she is naturally much more mature than others, she is also a maid, she also sympathizes with the people who are sent around Miss Eight, and the little girls whisper between each other, and they also agree that this Miss Nine is indeed a little unauthentic.
However, listening to what Su Yiqing said just now, she wanted to take the opportunity to make trouble and find out about Brother Qing'er, which was also Sister Rui'er's matter, not to mention that Miss Nine had saved her just now, so her opinion was naturally different, and she muttered: "Miss Nine also wants to give Brother Ming and Sister Rui'er justice." ”
Justice, Su Yiqing sneered, "What is justice, no one knows what the truth is, I believe in Brother Ming, but I don't dare to guarantee that there is no case, in case it is found out in the end, as everyone knows, it is Brother Ming who wants to tease Rui'er and fails, what if Rui'er jumps into the well in shame? It's okay to only be beaten on the board, those little girls like you, some of them were sold, some were casually matched, since you are from outside, you know very well how bad the environment is outside, and some people's lives have changed because of your thoughts. ”
Many times the so-called justice in the world is exchanged for blood and life, Bao Gong is very happy to have Chen Shimei, but people have thought about how Qin Xianglian and her two children should live in the future?
Xin'er is obviously also a clear maid. After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help but show a look of guilt on his face, but he still said: "Is it rare to let Sister Rui'er die in vain like this?
Su Yiqing sighed and said: "I don't know, I only know that this is an unfair world, you should think about what I said, and you are willing to take such a big risk for a person who is not related by blood, presumably you are also a chivalrous person, no matter what you plan to do in the future, for the sake of me saving you tonight, forget about tonight's events." ”
Xin'er was born in the opera troupe, she hasn't read any books, but she has heard a lot of dramas, she doesn't know why a lady who looks like a girl in the deep boudoir has such a ghostly skill, but she knows that it is not trivial for this matter to be leaked, and hurriedly said: "Miss Nine's life-saving grace, Xin'er is difficult to repay with broken bones, and she will never dare to betray Miss. ”
Looking at the serious and resolute expression on Xin'er's immature face, Su Yiqing didn't know whether to laugh or sigh, so she only said lightly: "I never believe in curses and swear, it's not that I don't believe in retribution, it's just that if curses can control people's hearts, there won't be so many evil people in this world...... Have you ever thought that if your sister Rui'er was framed and there was a master behind her, then it means that Brother Ming is also innocent, but Rui'er smashed him into a serious injury and became a fool, how should this be counted?"
"Sister Rui'er must have been forced...... "Halfway through the words, Xin'er's voice weakened, if Sister Rui'er was forced, then Brother Ming, as a victim, wouldn't it be more innocent?
Su Yiqing saw that Xin'er might not be able to figure it out for a while, and the good person did it to the end, and sent her back to the small courtyard where she lived so that she could think about it for herself and what to do in the future.
After a month like this, I didn't hear any news of a haunted ghost in the house, and I thought that Xin'er had figured it out, or maybe I didn't think it was a matter of pretending to be a ghost like this, so she stopped for the time being.
There is no need to run away in a hurry, Su Yiqing is still relieved, if she is really forced to run away unprepared, it will inevitably affect many people, and if she doesn't go, she will be in danger, she is kind-hearted, but she has not reached the point of sacrificing her life.
After a month of recuperation, Miss Su's legs were almost better, but she didn't go with the sisters to get up early to greet Mrs. Cen, saying that she didn't have a good idea, and she was afraid that she would be hurt again, but occasionally she went out to walk around the garden, and when she met the sisters, she was still laughing as before, her eyebrows were still the same eyebrows, and her smile was the same, but Su Yiqing felt that there seemed to be more or less something, maybe it was a psychological effect, and the sisters were not so enthusiastic.
It's understandable to think about it, Su Yijuan has been with her parents to other places for many years, no matter how rich she is outside, it is different from the stable after all, and there are more rules in the Bofu, Su Yijuan is not used to it, Su Yirong taught her hand-in-hand, and also took her to attend the social circle of the noble girl in the stable, and got to know a lot of handkerchiefs, so that Su Yijuan could quickly integrate, and as a result, Su Yijuan repaid her like this, which was too chilling.
