Chapter 502: Saving Your Life
"You're all deaf, what are you doing in a daze? Don't you stop me from gagging her. Seeing the maids standing still, Mrs. Hong raised her eyebrows and roared at the maids.
There are one or two loyal ones, but they want to step forward again, but Hu Dongmei stood up and said softly: "Mother-in-law, don't be angry, don't want me to say that I don't say it, just this last sentence, mother-in-law, you must listen, what I said is not known to God, your son obeys me not because he is stupid, if I have something to do in the Hong family, within a day, these things will immediately spread all over the streets." ”
As soon as she said this, the maid who wanted to do it froze again, looked straight at Mrs. Hong, and waited for Mrs. Hong's next instructions.
Mrs. Hong's chest rose and fell for a while, and she couldn't make up her mind, she wanted to block Hu Dongmei's mouth, but she was afraid that things would be as Hu Dongmei said, and she really had a backhand.
When Mrs. Hong hesitated, Hu Dongmei took the opportunity to take two steps forward, lowered her voice and said a few names in Mrs. Hong's ear, and then stepped back and said with a smile: "My mother's family is a scholarly family in the end, and she wants to save face, and now it is such a situation, even if she knows, she doesn't dare to make trouble, but it is not necessarily the case with other families." ”
"You, you ......" Mrs. Hong pointed at Hu Dongmei, unable to say a word, her fingers trembled, her body was shaking, and she was about to faint.
"You are all stupid, Madame has hysteria, why don't you help Madame go back to the house to rest. Hu Dongmei said this slowly, and when Mrs. Hong heard it, she couldn't stand it, her eyelids rolled, and she fainted completely.
"Madame, ma'am. The maid in the house was in a mess. There are those who pinch people, and those who feed water.
"Eh, my mother-in-law's hysteria is committed again, why don't you go and ask the doctor soon. Hu Dongmei made a surprised expression and instructed the maid, "You, and you, go to the pharmacy at the entrance of the street and invite Dr. Lin to come, Dr. Lin is good at curing madness." You. Go and report to the master, you go and inform the young lady, and say that the lady is hysterical, not crazy......"
"Second young lady. You just don't say a word. For the sake of Madame's good treatment of you these days. Mama Ma, who was beside Mrs. Hong, was a little unbearable, and persuaded her.
"Mama Ma is so kind-hearted, I'll tell you a secret. Hu Dongmei smiled slightly, quickly approached Mama Ma, and whispered in Mama Ma's ear.
Mama Ma was caught off guard, and after reacting, she looked at the maids and mothers-in-law around her, and hurriedly said, "Second Young Madam, I didn't hear what you just said." ”
"Eh, I'm sorry, Mama Ma, I forgot for a while, there are some things you really don't know, so as not to ......" Hu Dongmei pursed her lips and became worried, "It's good if you don't hear it, it's good if you don't hear it, don't say it." ”
"Second young lady......" Mama Ma only felt a chill in her back, she reacted all of a sudden, if you say what the second young lady said, although it is not something that can be heard, but so many people have heard it, and Madame can't ...... it all But just now, she didn't hear it, only God knows that she knows, others don't know, Mrs. was able to hold on when she heard the second young lady talk about the Hu family, but after listening to the second young lady's words, she immediately couldn't hold on, and she fainted directly, which shows how terrible the words of the second young lady are later.
The other maids in the house are not stupid, seeing this, they still see what to say, without waiting for the doctor to come, they quickly helped Mrs. Hong out, this is a place of right and wrong really can't stay for a long time, just look at Mama Ma's appearance, and if you stay any longer, maybe the next unlucky person will be.
Before leaving Hu Dongmei's yard, Mrs. Hong woke up leisurely, and the first thing she said when she woke up was to let everyone not leave her for half a step, but as soon as she counted the number of people, she found that there were two little maids missing.
The two little maids should have gone to inform Hong Daotai or the eldest young lady, after all, the lady was dizzy, and the second young lady said such a thing as hysteria, so she couldn't help but ask the other masters, really according to what the second young lady said, to ask for a special treatment of madness, but looking at the means of the second young lady today, if she didn't follow what she said, maybe the second young lady would hold a grudge.
The most important thing is that sometimes if there are more people who know a secret, it is safer, anyway, they don't have the courage to blackmail Mrs. with this secret, and if the people who hear it scatter, the secret may leak out, and Mrs. can't kill everyone.
Mingren quickly chased the two maids back, and everyone was not allowed to leave the courtyard for half a step, Mrs. Hong returned to her room, this matter was too big, she didn't dare to hide it, so she could only tell Hong Daotai as it was.
As soon as Hong Daotai heard this, his eyes were dark, and he sat down on the chair, unable to get up for a long time, Mrs. Hong hurriedly said, "Master, are you okay?"
"It's still holding on. Hong Daotai hammered his forehead and muttered, "I didn't expect this rebel to be so bold, this is going to affect the whole family." ”
"How is this good?" Mrs. Hong also got anxious, remembered something, and said hurriedly, "Master, when Hu Dongmei said this, most of the maids and women around me heard it, in case it spreads, you can quickly think of a way." ”
"You just said that Hu Dongmei only said the names of the seven girls of the Hu family in public?" Hong Daotai pondered for a while before asking.
Mrs. Hong nodded: "Yes, she whispered in my ear in the back, and others didn't hear it." ”
"This is not bad, it seems that this Hu Dongmei is really smart, and it doesn't matter what he says. After Hong Daotai finished speaking, he explained to Mrs. Hong, "As Hu Dongmei said, the Hu family is about to fall, and our son is already dead, even if they know about it, they have no ability to retaliate, not to mention that this is not a glorious thing for the woman, but I am afraid that it will be spread, and the first one to pick out and deny it is the Hu family...... But other families are going to die, and they must not spread it. ”
Mrs. Hong also knew the seriousness of the matter, and responded seriously, and then asked, "What about Hu Dongmei?"
"Don't mess with her for now, we'll talk about it later. Hong Daotai thought about it, Hu Dongmei dared to threaten him, maybe he really had a backhand, and they couldn't afford to take this risk.
"It's so cheap, this little slut, let her continue to play prestige in the Hong family?" Mrs. Hong's words had a resentment that could not be concealed. remembered that she heard Hu Dongmei say that she was crazy in a daze, and she couldn't wait to tear Hu Dongmei apart.
"Otherwise, what else?" Hong Daotai sighed, "She's crazy, we can't be buried with her, you have to think about them for Da Lang." ”
Mrs. Hong also knew that this matter could only be like this, but she was unwilling in the end, so she just asked a few more words, and when she heard Hong Daotai say this, she could only endure this breath for the time being, and talk about it later.
Think of the bunch of maids who heard this, and they should warn them well. Mrs. Hong wanted to go out and warn again. Hong Daotai suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly called her back.
After Hong Daotai called Mrs. Hong back, he did not speak immediately, but walked a few steps inside the house. It's like thinking. Mrs. Hung understands her husband's habits. Don't dare to disturb while he thinks.
After a long while, Hong Daotai let out a long breath and said to Mrs. Hong, "Yin Zhuying of Yancheng Mansion." Send someone to say hello, and say that we don't want to cause more trouble, as long as we can judge a manslaughter, forget it. ”
"How can this be? My poor Hao'er is gone. When Mrs. Hong heard this, she jumped up on the spot, her son died so unjustly, how could she let go of the murderer who killed her son.
Hong Daotai said helplessly: "How can I be willing? It's just that the Meng family is not easy to mess with, if Zhihao didn't do such a thing, forget it, I don't want this black yarn, and I want to seek justice for my son, but now the government has found the Lingfutang pharmacy, if you continue to entangle, find the medicine, know the effect of the medicine, and then follow the vine to find out something, I lost the black yarn hat not to say, how those women's families are willing to give up, and then the whole family will be implicated." ”
Mrs. Hong thought of her eldest son, and she could only do it.
Immediately afterwards, Mrs. Hong found a clever subordinate and asked him to go to Zhu Ying's master and hint a few words, forget about the cheap Chu brothers.
After the man left, Mrs. Hong walked back tiredly, and at this time, her personal maid Xiaochun stepped forward and whispered a few words in her ear.
Mrs. Hong almost jumped up again, looked around, lowered her voice and asked, "What you said is true?"
Xiaochun swore that "what the slave said was true, and everyone present at the time saw it, and they could all testify." ”
Mrs. Hong frowned and ordered, "You go and find Mama Ma." ”
……
Here, Zhu Ying received the news from his master and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
The Hong family is not biting, no matter what the reason is, as long as they don't bite tightly, he can sentence the Chu family brothers to manslaughter, and send a closer boundary to exile, I believe that the Chu family will not have any opinions, after all, their brothers really killed people, even if Hong Zhihao really took any medicine in advance, it was a stubborn disease caused by the Chu family brothers.
In this way, the Chu family should not have any opinions, but for the sake of safety, he still sent his master to the Chu family and quietly passed the word to the Chu family.
As Zhu Ying thought, the second elder of the Chu family was overjoyed when he heard the news.
I thought that my son would not be able to escape death this time, but I didn't expect that he would be able to escape death, and he would only be sentenced to exile for a few years, and this master also promised that the exile would not be too far away and too bitter, what else could they ask for?
Seeing that the second elder of the Chu family was about to agree, Meng Si couldn't care about the suspicion of men and women, and the Shangjia family was not so particular, she had done rough work such as going up the mountain to chop firewood when she was still in the countryside, and she was afraid of seeing any foreign men, so she immediately walked out.
The Chu family and his wife were happy when they heard the good news, and they couldn't care about Meng Si's faux pas, besides, if this official government can give a light sentence, it must also be the credit of the Dingwang Mansion and the Meng family, and Meng Si is the great benefactor of their family.
"Da Lang's daughter-in-law, you have quickly thanked Master Liu, Da Lang and Erlang have been saved. Mrs. Chu said happily to Meng Si.
Meng Si saluted Master Liu and said, "Thank you, Master Liu." ”
"No thanks, no thanks, I'm just a messenger, if you want to thank us, thank our family. Master Liu knew that this daughter-in-law of the Chu family was Miss Meng, different from ordinary women from small families, so he didn't dare to ask for her thanks.
Meng Si then said, "Master Liu, can you allow us to discuss it and make a decision." ”
Master Liu was stunned for a moment, as the master of Yancheng Mansion Yin, he has also seen many big scenes, as soon as he heard this, he knew that it was not good, often after thinking about this kind of thing, the family would put forward an inch-by-inch request, so he reminded: " Mrs. Chu, this matter can't be delayed, if the case is not sentenced for a day, it is easy to have an accident, if there is any change, this sentence is not our master's final say, and it will be troublesome then, after all, this is a human life lawsuit, in full view of everyone, it really can't be sentenced lightly, after all, Master Hong is also a Taoist, and his official position is not low. ”
Mrs. Chu was also anxious, for fear that if something happened again, her two sons would be worried about their lives, so she hurriedly glanced at Meng Si and said: "Yes, daughter-in-law, this has been calculated, Master Liu also said that if you kill by mistake, you will be sentenced to five years at most, and strive for a light sentence, maybe two or three years, and the days will pass easily." ”
Meng Si shook his head lightly and said, "Mother-in-law, let's discuss it again, no matter how anxious we are, we are not in a hurry to do so for half a day." ”
At this time, Master Chu, who had been silent, also reacted, thinking about it, the government changed his tone so easily, maybe there was something strange, not that he was not satisfied with such a punishment, I was afraid that the Hong family saw that the wind was not in the right direction, and felt that the government could not rely on it, so they did not ask for the death penalty, but wanted to do something on the way to exile. My daughter-in-law is right, Master Liu, you can let us think about it, it won't be too long, at most tomorrow, tomorrow I will personally go to the government office to give an answer, what do you think?"
Speaking of which, Master Liu can't either, if he continues to talk about it, it will seem too eager, but it will be even more suspicious, so he can only bow his hand and say with a smile: "Okay, then I'll leave first." ”
Master Chu personally sent Master Liu out of the door, and gave him a big red envelope, and then returned.
When I returned to the flower hall, I only heard Mrs. Chu complaining about Meng Si: "...... Daughter-in-law, what are you doing? In case, as Master Liu said, something really happens again, how can this be? Although the sentence has been a few years and it has been a little hard, but we have saved our lives, what else do we have to ask for?"
Compared with before, her son's life was almost not reported, Mrs. Chu was really afraid, although she felt sorry for her son, she really didn't want to take any big risks, she would rather endure a few years of separation, and when her son came back, they bought this house and shop, and went back to the countryside to live in peace.
