Chapter 63: A Tragic Lesson

"The girl is really willing to make a move, it's three hundred taels, let's take all those belongings for her?"

At the end of winter, she exclaimed in a low voice, Li Xiaonuan turned her head, looked at her with a smile and said:

"We are sponsoring her to go to the capital to make a living, what's the use of it? What does it matter if the money is gone or it can come back? ”

The end of winter nodded helplessly,

"I listen to the girl."

The end of the winter paused, hesitated, and said worriedly:

"Girl, do you want to report the matter of Chunqiao to the ancestor and his wife?"

Li Xiaonuan was stunned, was silent for a moment, and asked in a low voice:

"If you report to the ancestor and his wife, what will the ancestor and his wife do about this?"

"I've never heard of such a thing in the house, and it's a girl in the yard of a girl who hasn't left the cabinet, I'm just afraid of ...... Spring Pretty ...... There is no way to live, and that Liu Yuanhai ......"

At the end of winter, Ai Ai said, Li Xiaonuan shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly:

"You see, we don't know how the ancestor and the lady will deal with such a thing, and we can't try it, if it is reported, maybe it is really like what you said, if so, it is better to pretend not to know about it, Chun Qiao returned home, her mother can always help her get rid of the ...... in her stomach It's better to rest for a while, and when we come back, we will give our ancestors and Mrs. again, and send her home to marry on her own, and this matter will be over. ”

Late Winter thought about it carefully, sighed, and nodded heavily.

Early the next morning, Mama Wei came in, and Li Xiaonuan instructed the end of winter to wrap the silver ticket in a piece of white silk and hand it to Mama Wei.

"There are a few taels of silver here, and Mama brought it to her, Mei'er stayed in the water and clouds, using the name of Chaoyun, and the mother-in-law in the mansion of the Marquis of Zhou, just saying that it was entrusted by the neighbors."

Mama Wei agreed, took the money and went out.

The next day, Li Xiaonuan and Gu Yunshan said that they had packed up their things, gave Chun Qiao two more money, and sent her back to recuperate.

The days slowly calmed down, and in the blink of an eye, it was September, and on the day of Lan Zhi's marriage, she had lunch, and took leave at the end of winter, and went to Liu's house to eat wine and watch the excitement with a few second-class girls such as pearls.

Li Xiaonuan sat at the table in the west chamber and wrote slowly, with a slight emotion in her heart, some people are really happy and some are worried, Chunqiao and the Liu family are next door, listening to the hustle and bustle of the Liu family next door, Chunqiao doesn't know what the discomfort is like, I don't know if her mother sent her out to avoid it.

Li Xiaonuan wrote for half an hour before putting down the pen and going to the east couch to read.

In the evening, Li Xiaonuan was about to change his clothes and go to Ruixuan Hall to ask for peace, but at the end of winter, he hurriedly entered the house, bent his knees, and directly turned around and sent a few girls out, leaving only Lan Chu.

Li Xiaonuan's face also became nervous, and at the end of the winter, his lips trembled for a moment before he could barely speak.

"Girl, something happened to Chun Qiao and died"

Li Xiaonuan jumped up in shock, and drank the residual tea on the table at the end of winter, his breath seemed to be smoother, and his words became fluent.

"It was fine earlier, before I arrived at Liu's house, I also went to Chunqiao's house to look at her, and said a few words to her, the girl knew that Chunqiao and Liu's family were next door, at that time, she was fine, talking to me or something, all right, about Shenzheng, the bride entered the door, just got off the sedan chair in front of the hall, Chunqiao rushed in, pointing at Liu Yuanhai from beginning to end and talking about the relationship between the two"

At the end of winter, she covered her face and cried, Li Xiaonuan hurriedly stuffed the handkerchief in her hand to her, and asked anxiously:

"And then? What happened? Why did you just hit it? You'll cry when you're done."

At the end of winter, I tried my tears with a veil, stopped crying, and sobbed and said:

"Girl, now that I think about it, at that time she would have had the heart to die, otherwise, she wouldn't be so ashamed to even say clearly that the two of them are together in private, and she has also said that she has a child, and she has also said that she has a fetus, and she has said this."

"There are so many people, and no one stops them? Let her say? Let her die? ”

"People are stupid, she held a pair of scissors in her hand, stood between Lan Zhi and Liu Yuanhai, pointed at Liu Yuanhai and scolded, saying that if anyone stepped forward to stop her, she would stab whoever she was, and then wiped her neck, followed Lan Zhi's bride and pulled a handful, and was pierced by her scissors on her arm, blood splashed everywhere, so she had to let people hurry up to find her father, she finished, her eyes were red, pointing at Liu Yuanhai and cursing him, saying that if she died, she would turn into a ghost and haunt him, so that he would not be at peace day and night, and then he died on the pillar in front of the hall.

"Really dead?"

Li Xiaonuan asked in a daze, wiping her tears and nodding her head at the end of winter,

"Blood was shed all over the place, and the courtyard was full of blood"

Li Xiaonuan's throat was so tight that she couldn't speak, and she stood dumbfounded, dazed and at a loss.

It seemed that after a long time, Lan Chu stepped forward to help her sit on the couch, Li Xiaonuan came to her senses, turned her head to look at the end of the winter and Lan Chu, and asked sadly:

"How so? Why can't she think like that? ”

Lan Chu hurriedly poured a cup of hot tea and handed it to Li Xiaonuan, Li Xiaonuan took the cup and drank the tea in one gulp, tears dripping down.

The three of them hung their heads and were silent for a while, Lan Chuqiang said with a smile:

"I'll ask someone to bring warm water, the girl will clean her face, and if you delay it any longer, it will be past the time to say goodbye, and the ancestor and the lady must know about it."

Li Xiaonuan nodded, Lan Chu called Xiaoyu and Xiuwen in, waited for Li Xiaonuan to clean his face, and followed Li Xiaonuan to Ruixuan Hall.

The atmosphere in Ruixuan Hall was a little gloomy, and a few people carefully accompanied the gloomy old lady Li to eat, and hurriedly withdrew.

Li Xiaonuan retreated, and glanced at Mrs. Li hesitantly, Mrs. Li looked at her, waved her hand a little tiredly, and commanded in a low voice:

"You go back and rest first, and if there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow."

Li Xiaonuan hurriedly bent his knees and retreated.

Watching the four of them leave the courtyard gate, Mrs. Li let out a long sigh, turned her head to look at Mrs. Zhou, and said sadly:

"We have been in the capital for all these years, and there is no one in this old mansion, and such a thing happened"

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly stood up and bent her knees to accompany Sin,

"Mother, this is all because my housekeeper is not strict, please punish my mother."

Mrs. Li stretched out her hand and pulled her to sit on the edge of the couch, patted her hand gently, and said gently:

"The root of this matter is not in the past two years, before we come back, we gave birth to the root, and you are no wonder about this matter."

Old Madam Li sighed, and then said:

"The tree has a lot of dead branches, there are many people, and it is difficult to ensure that all of them are good, his two families are next to each other, even if the rules in the house are strict, she can't control what her family is going to do, and she herself can make it clear, all the interactions are excuses to take leave, and you can only see each other when you go home, alas, this child, is a fierce person"

Mrs. Zhou secretly breathed a sigh of relief, her face relaxed slightly, Mrs. Li looked at her gently, and then said:

"At the beginning, Lao Liu's housekeeper was a cautious person, and his sons also taught him well, but when it came to his grandson's generation, he grew old, and this grandson grew like this"

Old Madam Li's tone came out with some disgust, paused, turned her head to look at Mrs. Zhou and asked:

"Lan Zhi and her mother have come to see you? How so? ”

"I saw it, Lan Zhi was so frightened that she only knew how to cry, and her mother didn't expect that Liu Yuanhai would dare to provoke such a debt, and she slapped her face with hatred, saying that she had no eyes. There is also Steward Liu, who is kneeling in the second gate with Liu Yuanhai, and Chunqiao's father and mother are also kneeling in the second gate. ”

"Alas"

Old Madam Li sighed heavily, shook her head slightly, was silent for a long time, and commanded in a steady voice:

"Let Lan Zhi go back to the house with her mother, this family matter, forget it, Chunqiao's father, let them go back first, those two, kneel in the second door first."

Mrs. Zhou hurriedly nodded in agreement, and let people order.

Li Xiaonuan had a **** nightmare, and the next morning, he woke up very early, stared blankly at the top of the tent, and didn't know where he was.

At the end of winter, he and Lan Chu waited for Li Xiaonuan to wash up, change his clothes, and go to Ruixuan Hall to say goodbye.

Mrs. Zhou didn't come to Ruixuan Hall in the morning, a few people accompanied Mrs. Li to breakfast, Gu Xiao went to Mr. Chen's class, Gu Yunshan and Gu Yunhuan said goodbye, Mrs. Li left Li Xiaonuan, motioned her to sit on the couch, retired the girl who was waiting in the room, looked at Li Xiaonuan, and asked gently:

"Do you know about Chunqiao in advance?"

Li Xiaonuan looked at Mrs. Li, slowly stood up and knelt on the ground, nodded, Mrs. Li stretched out her hand to pull her up, and said in a low voice:

"The ancestor doesn't blame you, don't be afraid, I just thought, you are a smart and clever person, I am afraid that I can't hide it from you in your yard, and you are also a willing character, so I asked you so."

Li Xiaonuan's tears dripped down, raised his hand and pressed the corner of his eye with a handkerchief, and replied in a low voice:

"Ancestor, it's all my fault, as soon as I know about it, I should come over and report to my ancestor, I shouldn't let her go back to find Liu Yuanhai, it's ......"

Mrs. Li gently patted Li Xiaonuan's back and said slowly:

"You know this, just let her go to Liu Yuanhai, it's also kind, but think about it, if Liu Yuanhai is a good person, when he gets married, he should make it clear, since he has hidden it at that time, what is the use of looking for him again?"

Li Xiaonuan thought about it and nodded, Old Madam Li looked down at her, and then said:

"You let her go back to recuperate, because you want her to go to the evil fetus and start from scratch, but this person has done something wrong, so he can only get up in the wrong place, and he can't pretend not to see and bypass, and he can't get around."

Li Xiaonuan looked up at Mrs. Li and nodded slowly, Mrs. Li looked down at her, paused for a moment, and then said:

"This matter, if you told me when you knew about it, it was just to point out Chunqiao to Liu Yuanhai, and then send the two of them to Zhuangzi to work as coolies for a few years, and then to marry Lan Zhi again, why did there be such a tragic thing as yesterday?"
