Chapter 099: Like a Wolf and a Tiger
Things took a turn for the worse, Mo Xiaohe couldn't keep up with the rhythm, and he couldn't believe it like everyone in the living room. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
What is the relationship between Qingli and Lao Taijun, the love between grandparents and grandchildren? This simply doesn't make sense.
Mrs. Gu opened her mouth and closed her mouth, how to behave in everyone's ladies, and just now she reprimanded the finch with a sanctimonious appearance, saying that the finch should die and should be fed to the dog, so what should be done with the matter to her?
There are many private things in the mansion, Mo Xiaohe is fortunate for the first time, his family is a small family, the population is simple, and his father does not have a messy aunt, although he will suffer a little grievance because he has no power, but it is better than shouting and shouting at every turn, and he may lose his life at any time.
"You shitty play, stain my innocence, let me not protect my old age, old lady, you died so early, look at what my children and grandchildren are doing to me now!"
The old lady shouted a few times, and when she saw that everyone didn't believe her appearance, she was so angry that she sat on the ground and rolled, thundering and not raining, pointing at the sky and scolding the earth.
At this time, Mo Xiaohe was stunned again, she finally saw the etiquette of the big family, and she was like the old lady in their village who was bound in her feet.
In the classic pose, sit on the ground, pat your knees with your hands, and beat your chest.
"Old lady, what are you doing here, how can you take it seriously if the barley is a play?"
Although the second lady of the Gu family said this, she was obviously insincere, she smiled stiffly, and stepped forward to help her with the third lady of the Gu family.
The old lady looked at the direction of the city lord with the corner of her drooping eyes, she lost a lot of face in front of her children and grandchildren, how will she serve the public in the future? Today, I have to give her an explanation.
"Qing barley, do you know what will happen if you pour sewage on the old lady?"
The second child of the Gu family coughed twice and patted his round belly, "You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." ”
"Master, please call the shots for Wanqing, she has a good daughter's house, and she has never even left the backyard of the house."
A woman ran out from behind, kneeling on the ground and crying, hugging the thigh of the city lord, miserable, looking like an aunt in the house, who should be Wanqing's biological mother.
The old lady behaved inappropriately, was confessed, and dragged her innocent granddaughter, which is really disrespectful to the old man.
"Do you know her?"
The lord of the city did not look at the woman tugging at his pants, patted the sides of his shirt, sat down in the first place again, and continued the interrogation with a blank face.
Qing Barley nodded, which made Wan Qing's heart tighten, she thought that she was going to be implicated, if she couldn't prove her innocence, she would die on the pillar cleanly.
"She is the daughter of the Gu family, and she came when she was on the stage in the Gu Mansion."
She had never spoken to him before, she didn't have any intersection, and she didn't say anything to the old lady.
Mrs. Gu's hands and feet were cold, she had never felt so cold, and her heart was full of question marks, how could Qing Barley have had anything to do with Lao Taijun? How can it be?
He said that he only loved her, and they wanted to be together, change their faces, go incognito, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and spend the rest of their lives, is it all a deception?
She thought, as long as she can save his life, even if she takes all the responsibility on herself, there is nothing, but what is the truth of the matter? She wasn't sure.
"Say, since you said that you have a paragraph with the old lady, show evidence."
The lord of the city took the bowl and tasted the tea, not looking at the people kneeling below.
"Blood spews people, blood spews people, my son wants to force his mother to death!"
The old lady made a fuss, stood up, staggered to the pillar, and halfway through, the second lady of the Gu family pulled back.
She's just pretending, a person who is bent on death, can hit a pillar slower than a snail? But all this opened Mo Xiaohe's eyes, and it is no wonder that the old lady dislikes her for growing up in the mountains and wilderness, and she has never seen the world, this is indeed the first time she has seen such a world.
"Big brother, why don't we try it again tomorrow?"
The second child of the Gu family felt bad, perfunctory, playing a round, this kind of ugly thing, so as to save face for his mother. Besides, their father has been dead for too many years, and it is not easy for their mother to be widowed in the back house, and when no one has made a mistake, they are not multi-room concubines.
"Two months ago, the Ruyi class once came to the house to sing, and afterwards, stayed here overnight."
The barley has fallen into a memory, a painful memory.
That night, he couldn't sleep, and he was reading in his room with an oil lamp, when a maid knocked on the door, saying that he had something to tell him and asked him to go.
The city lord's mansion is the emperor of the soil in Licheng, he didn't dare to offend, and hurriedly put on his clothes, although he was very curious why someone talked to him in the middle of the night, but he didn't ask anything.
The other party said that the old lady couldn't sleep and wanted to talk to someone.
Lao Taijun's ancestral home is in Bianzhou, which is close to Kyoto, and it just so happens that Qingli is also from Bianzhou, so he thinks that Lao Taijun misses his hometown, so he doesn't care much.
After following the maid to the Songhe Courtyard, he found that except for a dim oil lamp lit in the old lady's bedroom, it was quiet.
The old lady fell on the bed, it was winter, it was cold and snowy outside, and she was only wearing a red belly pocket.
There is a wall of fire in the house, steaming, and the old lady is covered with brocade, and he has no match or chat, talking about the customs of Bianzhou.
Chatting and chatting, the old lady said that his shoulders were sore and asked him to help knead them, but the barley didn't think about the rest of the place, so he did so.
He knelt on the edge of the bed and helped the old lady massage her swollen legs.
Both men and women, no matter how well they are maintained, they will have more wrinkles on their bodies when they get older.
The old lady in the age of sixtieth year, with age spots on her body, loose skin, and flirting with him, a pair of thin hands kept touching him.
Qingli is a play, and singing is a lowly industry in the ninth class, but he does not sell his art, and he is not a petty man, so he can be ravaged at will.
"If you go out, I'll call someone right away and say that you are molesting me while you are massaged."
The old lady squinted her eyes and threatened the barley, if she didn't comply, it would be ugly if she made trouble.
An old lady of the city lord's mansion, a lowly actor, even if he is persecuted, it doesn't matter, this life can't be saved.
In the end, he had no choice, so he called for water three times a night before he fell asleep.
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Qing Barley was sick for a long time, until he met Mrs. Gu, and was moved by the sorrow between her eyebrows, he hated the people of the City Lord's Mansion, and he wanted to leave here, far away, and never come back.
and the old lady, he hid it, and no one wanted to mention those nightmares and darkness.
"What I said is true, if there is a half-word lie, I am willing to be a beast in the next life, and I will never be a man!" The poisonous oath of the barley is much more serious than the thunder and thunder of the sky, and the ancients were superstitious, and the oath was never easy to say.
Mo Xiaohe rubbed her face, otherwise she really couldn't control her facial expressions, and said that women were thirty like wolves and forty like tigers, but in the year of the old lady's sixtieth birthday, this demand was like a wolf and a tiger.
actually threatens the beauty of the play, if you don't obey, shout out, saying that you are being molested, is there any credibility? It's too thick-skinned and shameless!
Facing the strange old lady among people, Mo Xiaohe suddenly felt that the unfair treatment he had received before was really nothing.
There was a long silence in the living room, and everyone stared at each other, not knowing what to say or how to end.
The old lady seemed to want to mess around, but when she saw that the situation was not good, she rubbed her forehead, her legs were weak, and she fainted directly to the ground.
This time I was prepared, and I didn't pretend to faint like last time because there was no one to help me, and I broke my head.
"The old lady fainted!"
Second Mrs. Gu screamed fakely, resentful in her heart, she had coveted barley for a long time, but the other party had always refused, who would have thought that the old pig in the family would arch the good cabbage, and use such a subordinate method!
"Put on a basin of cold water, splash it, and the person will be sober."
The city lord still said in a faint tone, and hooked the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "Then you came to the mansion tonight, but you came for the old lady?" ”
"I didn't go."
Qing Barley's mind was running rapidly, and he felt that there was something wrong with it, the relationship between the city lord and the old lady was not like mother and son, otherwise how could he be encouraged to continue talking in front of everyone?
After thinking about it for a while, he had a plan in his mind.
"After singing, I didn't leave, I hid secretly."
Qing Barley said that he was an innocent person, and he was insulted for the first time, a manly man, and it was difficult to speak, he was going crazy, so he wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge on the old lady.
"I set up a rockery, I want to secretly trick the old lady over, and then ......"
He didn't say the latter words, anyway, he was caught, and he was a death, in order to protect Jin Niang, it didn't matter what happened, he just hoped that Jin Niang could be smarter, and don't say anything.
Here, before a basin of cold water was poured on it, the old lady woke up.
She got up, stared at her round eyes and scolded angrily, "You scumbag who kills a thousand knives, you actually want to harm me when you come to the house, boss, why don't you hurry up and let the guards scratch his face, kill and chop it up and feed it to the dog!" ”
At this moment, the expressions of the second and third elders of the Gu family were ugly, their faces were hot, and they felt deeply ashamed.
In the past, there was a bit of gossip at home, saying that the old lady liked to call the guards of the house into her bedroom to reply, but everyone thought she was lonely and wanted to talk to someone.
"City Lord, the barley knows that he has a cheap life, and he just wants to die a decent way."
Qing Barley closed his eyes, forcibly not looking at Mrs. Gu's expression, his heart was down, ready to die.
Mrs. Gu's eyes turned red instantly, she pushed Cuiru away and stood up, "Master, it's our house that I'm sorry for the barley." ”
Hearing the cry of his sweetheart, Qing Barley's eyes widened in shock, looking at Mrs. Gu's direction, he was trying hard not to show a little emotion, but it was too difficult.
"That's right, barley, get up."
The city lord nodded for the first time and echoed Mrs. Gu.
"Big Brother ......"
The second child of the Gu family wanted to say something, but finally sighed, lowered his head, and was silent.
"What do you say, what about the evidence, what about the witnesses?"
The old lady of the Gu family is still resisting, when she notified the maid of the barley to commit a crime, she beat dozens of boards, and sent someone to throw the grave, the corpse should have been cold a long time ago, and the old lady next to her, she brought it from her mother's house, and followed her for nearly fifty years, she will definitely not betray.
"Bring a witness."
The lord clapped his hands, and soon a pale-faced woman appeared in the living room, about twenty years old.
"Cuiping, it's Cuiping!"
At the beginning of the unified Cui character of the Gu Mansion, Cui Ping turned out to be a first-class big girl in the Songhe Courtyard of the old lady, because she was deeply respected, the old lady stayed for a few more years, and she didn't say anything about it at twenty.
Some time ago, I heard that Cuiping committed a crime and was almost killed by the old lady, and everyone didn't investigate it.
"Okay, okay, so I'm showing this today."
The old lady was angry, pointed at Cuiping and said, "Do you know why I killed her?" ”
"Old lady, I'm alive, you're disappointed."
For more than two months, Cuiping did not recuperate, at that time, the wind and snow in the north, if it wasn't for someone passing by to save her life, she would have died a whimper, and she should not have died, and she met a nobleman, and it happened that the life-saving benefactor knew medical skills.
"City Lord, the slave maid has not yet left the slave status, and for the time being, she is still the maid of the City Lord's Mansion, I hope you will be true to your word, and after this matter is concluded, the slave and maid will be allowed to leave the country."
Cui Ping knelt down respectfully and kowtowed, glanced at the barley again, and then talked about the reason why he was killed.
She used to be by the old lady's side, doing things for the old lady, and knew too many secrets, the old lady often used the excuse of looking for someone to chat, and asked a few guards in the house to serve her, and how to serve was what everyone thought.
After going back and forth, Cui Ping and one of the guards had a relationship, he was humiliated, and she was also sad, but neither of them could resist the old lady.
Once when the two of them complained about their feelings in the back garden of the house, they were told by another maid of the old lady, so the old lady was too angry and thought that Cui Ping was coquettish, and as a maid, she did not abide by the woman's way and almost beat her to death.
She and the guard were innocent, at first sympathetic, and then they became emotional, and when she was killed, the man became a turtle with a shrunken head, and never appeared from beginning to end.
It snowed heavily that night, and she was thrown into a mass grave, frightened, desperate, Cui Ping thought she was going to die, but she was unexpectedly saved.
So, after her injuries gradually improved, she married her savior.
