Chapter 183: Collapse
Sixi didn't believe that Sister Qiao was using her anyway, and she didn't have anything worth taking advantage of, in that case, even if it was a human trafficker, she could buy many big girls without spending money, and many people could even help escape from the war-torn Yunzhou as long as they had a stutter, and they didn't have to deceive at all.
Pang Jin calmly analyzed: "First of all, I don't know what she is returning to Yunzhou City for when she is in such chaos and the people have fled, and I don't want to guess, but obviously, two people are easier to hide than one person, if she is just a single girl, it is difficult not to make people suspicious, after all, her calm wit is difficult to hide, and there is one more you, you are a native of Yunzhou, the neighborhood knows each other, the family is innocent, what about her, not to mention that she and Xiaoqing's family have only been in Yunzhou City for two years, Even if it is the identity of Sister Qiao, it is not easy to prove it, a widow, living in a simple house, the neighbors around the left and right have really seen the familiar with her face, I am afraid that there are not many, the war is together, everyone has fled, if you are unlucky, a person who can prove that she is Sister Qiao can't find it, and people of unknown origin are even more afraid of being checked if they have secrets, and if you are dragged on, her identity will be much more credible. ”
Sixi's face gradually changed, and he said firmly: "Xianggong, I don't understand what you want to say? Do you want to say that Sister Qiao has bad intentions in Yunzhou? Do you want to do something? But it turns out that she didn't do anything, on the contrary, she also contributed to the battle to defend the city. ”
"You said she didn't say anything, what do you know?" Pang Jin grabbed Sixi's arm and asked sharply.
Sixi only felt that his arm was about to be wrenched, and said bitterly: "Xianggong, what are you doing? Don't be so hard, Sister Qiao didn't say anything to me, but I'm not a fool, there are some things that no one needs to say, you treated us like that before, let us live in a compound where only the families of soldiers can live." took care of our food and clothing, and sent us to the small courtyard near the city before the city was broken, and helped us prepare the horses to retreat, and won a victory. At first, I thought that General Zhang was interested in Sister Qiao, but you said that Sister Qiao was the lord of the county, and that she was still alive and was the enemy prince, so I felt that it was not a personal affair of my children. Sister Qiao is a woman, but she is very capable, I think she should have helped you something. ”
Pang Jin slowly let go of his hand and said in a low voice: "Who else have you sued for these things?"
Sixi waved his hand again and again, "No." No, I didn't say anything, not even my father and mother, even Xiaoqing's mother and son asked me about Sister Qiao's whereabouts, I didn't say it, no matter who asked me, I only said when the city was in turmoil. I got separated from Sister Qiao, and then I met Xianggong, and I knew that there were some things that I couldn't talk nonsense. ”
"Remember, don't talk about these things in the future, especially if you guess it, even if I'm asking you. Don't say it either. Pang Jin was very strict and whispered to Sixi.
Sixi nodded very seriously, but still said: "Xianggong, I don't know what you think of Sister Qiao, but for me, she is a benefactor." It's already benevolent and righteous to me, no matter what kind of person she is and what her purpose is, but she has done what she can, especially to help me find such a good husband, I am grateful to her all my life, without her I would have died in Yunzhou. ”
Pang Jin avoided Sixi's sincere eyes and muttered, "I'm not as good as you think." ”
Sixi said: "Xianggong, you are the best, you took care of my family, without you, my mother's family has to ask for food now, rush this grace, even if one day, you treat me badly, and want to marry another famous lady, I will not complain to you, I will invite myself to the court, and I will never embarrass you." ”
"Good manner, what are you talking about, how can I Pang Jin be the villain who abandons the chaff?" Pang Jin's eyes became a little hot, and in order to cover up, he diverted the topic and said: "By the way, I thought about it, you can divide half of the family's silver, let your father-in-law and eldest brother go to other places to buy real estate, buy more land, you know this place in Yunzhou, maybe the enemy army will fight again that day, and it is not safe to buy a house here." ”
"Okay, Xianggong, I'll listen to you. Sixi has never had any objections to Pang Jin's arrangement.
Pang Jin suddenly felt that maybe that woman was really right, this family affair was really good for him, after all, it was difficult to find such a good wife who was willing to accommodate him, and the two of them lived together, and the benefits were the most important.
Of course, this premise is that there is something crooked on his side.
Stable, Yongxiang Houfu.
Su Yirong's face was gray and haggard, and her rounded figure, which had been smooth since giving birth to two children, quickly lost weight in just two months, and she was much thinner than when she was not married.
At this time, she stood outside the small Buddha hall and waited for Mrs. Zhou to come out after chanting the Buddha.
Mrs. Zhou has not cared about anything in the past two years, but she pays great attention to health preservation, does not feel happy and sad, and maintains a peaceful state of mind.
How mean are the Marquis Xu and his wife? They don't have any vision, and the people of Yuanping Bofu have suffered a lot of white eyes, until the people of Yuanping Bofu don't expel the whole family from the stable, and Mrs. Zhou just asked people to send something, and she estimated that it was money or something.
If she is so indifferent to her own flesh and blood, will she take care of her business? Su Yirong didn't have any bottom in his heart, but if he was willing to let her wait outside the Buddhist hall, it should be a little loose, otherwise he would just say that he would not be able to do so.
Standing until her legs were numb, in order to show her sincerity, Su Yirong didn't dare to sit and wait, just stood like that, counting the fallen leaves of the plane tree at the entrance of the Buddha Hall, until she counted to three thousand, she heard that the Muyu Stone in the Buddha Hall stopped, and her spirit couldn't help but be shocked, and she quietly adjusted her standing posture, making sure that her expression and posture were perfect.
After waiting for a long time, when the respectful expression on Su Yirong's face was about to be untenable, there was a sound of gentle footsteps, and Mrs. Zhou came out with the support of her personal grandmother.
"Grandmother. Su Yirong hurriedly went up and hugged Mrs. Zhou's other side.
The old lady took a few steps back.
Since Mrs. Zhou didn't like to talk about mundane things in the Buddhist hall, Su Yirong slowly helped her back to the room.
After Mrs. Zhou sat down on the couch, Su Yirong was busy taking the cushion behind her, and then took the hot tea from the maid's hand, blew it gently, and then handed it to Mrs. Zhou.
Mrs. Zhou took a sip of tea slowly, half-squinted her eyes, as if she was tasting tea, and then said slowly: "What are you going to do now?"
Su Yirong lowered his head and said, "Daughter-in-law Sun knows that she is wrong, please ask your grandmother for forgiveness." ”
Mrs. Zhou said in a very flat tone: "You are wrong, but you don't need me to forgive, after all, most of your Qiē is your own hard work, except for the initial guidance of my wife, you have already paid off the kindness of that pointing, so between us, no one owes anyone, and it doesn't matter if you forgive." ”
"Grandmother, it's the granddaughter-in-law's fault that she didn't take care of the family. Su Yirong listened to Mrs. Zhou's words, and her heart slowly cooled down, did Mrs. Zhou mean that she didn't want to care?
"Don't be presumptuous, among the ladies in the stable, whether it is character or ability, you are top-notch, and changing someone will only do worse than you. Mrs. Zhou waved her hand, "If it weren't for your control in the past few years, this family might not have become like this, so unless you committed the crime of raiding the family and exterminating the clan, no one can blame you." ”
"No, grandmother, it's really the granddaughter-in-law's fault, it's the granddaughter-in-law who didn't listen to your old man's persuasion, which got to where you are today. ”
Su Yirong is sincere remorse, Mrs. Zhou persuaded her earlier, as long as the money is enough, it is not the best policy for a woman to show her face to do business after all, not to mention that in this world, where the return is high, the risk is also large, there is no absolute security, the outside is messy, it is better to collect the outside business, and the complex business such as restaurants and inns should not be done, and it can be transferred at a high price while there is nothing to do, and the silver is still safe in your hands.
But she didn't listen, the silver money in Yongxiang Bofu is enough, but she is not enough, she wants to take care of her mother's family, the silver gap that her mother's family needs in the past two years is very large, her sister Su Yihua remarried to other places, and the situation is not very good.
In view of the situation of the princess's mansion before, Su Yihua was really afraid of the strict mother-in-law and the difficult concubine, so she chose left and right, and chose the eldest son of an official eunuch family to fill the house, the mother-in-law died early, the father-in-law did not remarry, the concubine is there, but she is a younger brother and sister, and the age is beary, the former wife of the patriarch left a ten-year-old son, and the general girl is unwilling to marry, but Su Yihua thinks it is good, the official family does not have a title, and a bunch of people are staring at that bit of family property, and she can't do anything big, she has a lot of money to dowry, The most important point is that she has been married into the princess's mansion for three years without success, although the doctor is normal in her examination, but she is inevitably uneasy in her heart, what if she does not come out in her life? Now that the other party already has a son-in-law, he will not keep an eye on her belly, and there is really a case that one day later will be arranged to give birth to a child who will come out and be raised by her side.
After getting married, a qiē is really as Su Yihua wishes, there are no powerful people to give her a stumbling block, but there are pros and cons, there are a bunch of mediocre talents in the backyard, that younger brother and sister are young and submissive, and they want her idea for everything, and they have to find her for the affairs of the whole family, which is enough to worry about, especially Su Yihua still holds her breath and hopes that her husband will be motivated, can enter Beijing as an official, and return to the circle of noblewomen in the stable to raise her eyebrows, which requires a very important thing, money.
So Su Yihua also followed in Su Yirong's footsteps and wanted to do some business.
