Two days later, in the night, the night sky was clear and suddenly it was pouring down, and the rain was so heavy that it seemed to break the roof tiles and fall into the house.

Yi Rongxuan was woken up here, and the sound of rain hitting the eaves windowsill in his ears was in his ears, compared to the sultry heat in the first half of the night, there was more coolness in the house after the heavy rain came.

Pulling the quilt to wrap her body, Qi Xiangsi turned over, half of her voice was blocked out of the quilt, she opened her eyes in a daze and looked at the tent, it was dark, and she fell asleep again after closing her eyes.

Under the heavy rain, it was quiet everywhere, and even the wild cats who liked to walk around the eaves at night hid to avoid the rain, and at this time there was the sound of horses' hooves in the alley at the back door of Qi Mansion, mixed with the washing of the rain, and the sound of "tapping" sounded in the quiet alley.

Two people got off their horses, dressed in their robes and went to the door, one of them knocked on the door, and the mother-in-law who was hiding under the canopy suddenly woke up, yawned and asked who it was, and when she heard the name from outside, she hurriedly ran over with an umbrella and opened the door.

The two of them took off their robes, took the umbrellas, hurried into the rain, and walked towards the inner courtyard.

The rain is still falling, and from a distance, it looks like countless curtains are falling at the same time, and the air is still foggy, washing over the entire city of Kyoto in the early morning

When the rain stopped at dawn, the water was dripping under the eaves, and the big kitchen of the Qi Mansion had already begun to be busy, and in half an hour, the masters of each courtyard would get up, and soon someone would come to receive the food box.

After a night of rain, only the water surface of the lotus leaf quietly showed the tip, and the top of the pink bud leaned on the lotus leaf shyly, or it would not be long before you could enjoy the lotus here.

There were very light footsteps in the corridor, a few maids got up and started to get busy, tidying up the yard, and boiling water and waiting for the main house to get up, last night the old man slept with Aunt Lu, and today is resting, I'm afraid I won't get up so early.

The sound of hurried footsteps at the gate of Xiuhe Garden broke the silence, and in the misty sky, several strong mothers-in-law rushed towards the main house, and the two little maids who were cleaning up in the garden suddenly raised their heads to look at them, both at a loss.

Looking closely, several mothers-in-law were still holding cloth ropes in their hands, and the momentum seemed to be tying people up, and the maids on this side of the corridor hurriedly stopped them: "Mother He, what are you doing here?" ”

"Aunt Lu committed a murder case, and Mrs. sent us to get someone." Led by Mother He's strong physique, looking at the maid's eyes makes people shudder, she is usually responsible for punishing the subordinates who make mistakes, and she is very ruthless, and the maids in the house are afraid when they see her.

"Mother He, it's not dawn yet, I'm afraid that Mrs. hasn't gotten up." Yun Xia walked over, patted the maid and asked her to get busy, and looked at them with a smile, "You said that Aunt Lu committed a murder case, and even I was confused." ”

"Miss Yunxia has been serving Aunt Lu for many years." Mother He looked at her with a smile, Yun Xia chuckled in her heart, not knowing what she was going to say next, so she nodded thoughtfully, "What did Mother He say, I have been in the house for so many years, don't you know when I came to Xiuhe Garden." ”

Mother He nodded to a burly woman beside her: "Take her away too." ”

Caught off guard, Yun Xia was grabbed by his hands, and there was a pain in his shoulder, Yun Xia looked at them angrily: "Mother He, what are you going to do, the master is still resting in the house!" ”

"You don't have to worry about the master's affairs." Mother He gave a look, and the mother-in-law covered Yun Xia's mouth and dragged the person out directly.

The two little girls in the yard were stunned, and they were even more afraid that Mother He would arrest them, so they didn't dare to come out.

However, Mother He didn't pay attention to them at all, and walked towards the main house, this time no one dared to stop them, the two maids guarding the door lowered their heads to avoid them, and one of them also whispered: "Mother He, the master hasn't woken up yet, you"

Before she finished speaking, Mother He knocked on the door, her voice was not heavy, and her tone was very respectful: "Master, madam, please get up." ”

Aunt Lu had already woken up in the house, and just now she heard Yun Xia's voice, and now it was someone else, and she couldn't help but wonder: "It's not dawn, who is outside." ”

When Mother He heard that it was Aunt Lu's voice, she directly pushed open the door: "Master, the little one is here to invite you over on the order of Mrs. He." ”

"Presumptuous, I didn't let you in, you dare" Aunt Lu was about to get angry when she saw that it was Mother He who came in, and became more and more annoyed after reacting, "Mother He, the master is still resting here, you can't do it!" ”

Qi Herui woke up, looked up and saw several mothers-in-law standing there, frowning slightly: "What are you doing!" ”

"Master, they said that they came to invite you over on the order of their wife, what time is it, and they broke in so rashly before the sky was bright." Aunt Lu took the lead in suing, very aggrieved, "Madame, this is deliberately embarrassing for me, and I don't take you in my eyes." ”

"Get out!" Qi Herui waved his hand impatiently, "If there is something I have to go now." ”

Mother He didn't move at all, and was still respectful: "Madame asked the old man to go back to preside over justice, and Madame also invited the eldest master to open the ancestral hall, and the old lady also went at this time." ”

Qi Herui woke up, opened the ancestral hall, opened the ancestral hall, he was angry, and suddenly lifted the quilt: "What is she going to do early in the morning!" ”

Aunt Lu was very happy to see the old man angry, the more angry the lady was, the more the lord's heart turned to her, so she followed, took the clothes from the shelf and helped the master put them on, and said softly: "Let the eldest master open the ancestral hall, it must be a big deal." ”

"What can she do!" Woke up before dawn, Qi Herui's temper was very bad, he got dressed and strode away, Aunt Lu still smiled at him, and when she looked back and saw Mother He who was still in the house, she smiled and froze, "Why haven't you left yet." ”

The two mothers-in-law next to Mother He walked towards Aunt Lu with a cloth rope, and they were about to tie someone up without saying a word, Aunt Lu's face changed greatly: "Presumptuous!" ”

"Aunt Lu committed a murder case, and Madame ordered me to come and get someone." A smile appeared on Mother He's face, which looked terrifying, "We are all rough people, and we don't have a serious start, Aunt Lu, you'd better not struggle, otherwise we won't be responsible for hurting ourselves." ”

Aunt Lu only realized at this time why Yun Xia's voice was gone, but the old man had already walked away, and it was too late to shout again, she stared at the two mothers-in-law and took a step back: "You dare!" ”

Before she could finish speaking, the two mothers-in-law had already stepped forward and held her down

The day was just dawn, and it was not open yet, and there were many people standing in the small courtyard in front of the ancestral hall, the eldest lord and the eldest lady, Mother Lin holding the old lady, and a few children.

Qi Xiangsi raised her head and looked at her mother standing next to her uncle, when it was not dawn, Jinxiuyuan sent someone to wake her up, looking at this battle, she must have not slept all night last night.

Soon Qi Herui came, and when he saw so many people, his fire was not easy to send out in front of him, so he only scolded Gu with a calm face: "What are you doing, you have alarmed your mother and eldest brother early this morning, you can't wait for anything!" ”

Gu Shi raised his head and said lightly: "The master sleeps peacefully, and the concubine can sleep unsteadily." ”

Encountering her cold look, Qi Herui became even more angry: "You are not fooling around, you want your eldest brother to open an ancestral hall!" ”

Gu ignored him and turned to look at the eldest master: "Big brother, everyone is together, you can start." ”

Qi Hexiang nodded, glanced at his younger brother, signaled him to be restless, turned around and entered the ancestral hall, lit incense and came out to hand it to the Gu family, Gu looked at the old lady Qi after swinging, and knelt on the futon outside the ancestral hall after the old lady Qi nodded: "The ancestors of the Qi family are on top, and the wife of the great-grandson Qi Herui, Qi Gu, is guilty." ”

After Gu finished speaking, Mother He and the others brought Aunt Lu over, and Aunt Lu, who was tied behind her back with her hands tied behind her back and gagged, only a whining sound remained, she looked towards Qi Herui, and was forced to kneel on the stone path by Mother He, and her knees hurt.

Qi Herui's face was about to turn dark, he left from Xiuhe Garden with his front foot, and Aunt Lu was helped over with his back foot, she didn't care when he went to Xiuhe Garden to spend the night these days, and now she deliberately wanted to embarrass herself.

"As the wife of the master, I have allowed Aunt Lu to run rampant for more than ten years, and I have also harmed the descendants of the Qi family, and I cannot escape the blame." Gu looked at the many tablets in the ancestral hall sincerely, and his voice gradually became heavy, "Fourteen years after marrying into the Qi family, I should have opened up branches for the Qi family for the master, but I only gave birth to a pair of children, and the master was unable to take care of it during his tenure in Huizhou, which made Aunt Lu unscrupulous in Huizhou and did something to kill her own daughter." ”

Aunt Lu, who was kneeling there, whined even more, she shook her head vigorously, her undressed hair was scattered behind her, she stretched her neck to Qi Herui for help, but Mother He's hands behind her were pressed to death, and her shoulders were about to collapse.

There were faint tears in Gu's eyes: "I haven't been to Huizhou in so many years, and I haven't checked the events of the year, Aunt Wei died pitifully, but I don't know that the serious young lady of the Qi family is out, and I don't know that the descendants of the Qi family were poisoned just after birth, and they were arbitrarily discarded. ”

After Gu said, the two mothers-in-law carried a small coffin up, and what was placed inside was the bones that were tracked and found by Jade's cousin and found by the people sent by Gu's family.

Old Madam Qi got up from the chair suddenly, and the hand held by Mother Lin trembled slightly, although she already knew the ins and outs, she could hear these things from her daughter-in-law's mouth again, especially when she saw the small coffin, she couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes.

Fang Shi glanced at the coffin: "Aunt Lu didn't give birth to Brother Rong, what's the matter with this child." ”

Gu got up, and the corners of his mouth raised a touch of sarcasm: "Sister-in-law asked well, I also want to ask Aunt Lu how she snatched Aunt Wei's child back then, treating it as her own son, and how she was ruthless and killed her daughter." ”
