Chapter 32: A Conversation with Three Women

Yuanfu, Ruihuayuan. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Mrs. Lu was sitting on the couch at this time, her eyes closed, and her forehead with one hand. Her frown was as tight as the folds on the back of her hands.

After the room was quiet for a long time, Situ Chan stepped forward and spoke first: "Auntie, if you feel unwell, please go and rest first." ”

Hearing this, Old Madam Lu's brows furrowed even tighter, and her eyes opened slightly, but she didn't even look at Situ Juan, she just waved her hand, which was a response.

After a while, she slowly raised her head, only looked at Situ Juan, and spit out softly: "Juan'er, do you still have resentment about what happened back then?" ”

Situ Juan's eyes suddenly flickered, and she only replied, "Juan'er doesn't understand what aunt means by this." I really don't understand the resentment. ”

"You still want to hide from me, don't you want to put the old lady and the child to death today?" She said this to Situ Chan. She knows the temperament of these two sisters very well, and if she wants to say something or something, they can't do it without Situ Chan's planning.

The Situ Juan sisters were so red-faced by her straightforward words that they couldn't find the right words to answer for a while.

"Back then, you and the second young master of the Yuan family were about to get married, but you changed your mind and insisted on being with Lin Gongzi, who expected that Lin Gongzi would soon fall ill and die. When you turned your head and wanted to renew the relationship with the second young master of Yuan, the queen's mother came down with a decree, and actually made the most powerful female official around her become the second young grandmother of the Yuan Mansion, and you were forced by the queen's power to succumb to the position of concubine. ”

Mrs. Lu just wants to break up the past and sort it out for them at this time, but in fact, who of them doesn't know the inside story?

Yuan Keli and Cheng Qingshu had a marriage contract when they were young, but later due to many changes, and Cheng Qingshu had already become the head of the four most trusted female officials of the queen, according to the fate of the previous female officials, everyone thought that the queen would definitely assign a prince and grandson to Cheng Qingshu. The Yuan family didn't plan to mention this matter anymore, and turned around to get engaged to the second lady of the Situ family. But this second lady went to chase after Lin Gongzi, who was more talented and characterful than Yuan Keli, and she was to blame for what happened next.

But from then on, Situ Juan put all the responsibility on Cheng Qingshu's head, and felt that it was her sideways intervention that made her a joke in the eyes of everyone, and the pampered second lady of the Situ family would become a concubine.

And after Cheng Qingshu died, this hatred would be automatically transferred to Yuan Xiyue.

Situ Juan wanted to distinguish a few more words, but was stopped by Situ Chan with a look.

I saw Situ Chan immediately knelt on the ground and gave Mrs. Lu a solemn kowtow. Then he raised his head and said: "Today's incident is thanks to my aunt's relief, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Old Madam Lu didn't answer, but just exhaled lightly from her nostrils, her expression full of regret and distress.

"It's just that Chan'er has to say that Aunt Yuchai gave me one for each of my sisters last year, and Juan'er's one was indeed used to buy Hui'er this time, but it wasn't because she wanted to poison the old lady."

When Old Madam Lu heard her say this, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes.

And Situ Chan continued to say with an unchanged face: "Hui'er's poisoning has been a thing for a long time, and after her sister found out, Hui'er begged her to spare her life, saying that she could do anything to get rid of the crime. My sister was also confused for a while, so she came up with a plan to push the boat along the water, so that Hui'er took this opportunity to say that the poisoning was done by Xiyue. Seeing that he could get rid of his guilt, this Diao slave hurriedly agreed, but in the end, it was self-defeating. ”

After Situ Chan said this, they were completely unaware of the poisoning. It's also strange that Hui'er didn't do a good thing herself, and they were almost implicated. As for the planting, it can only be said that the second sister was confused for a while, and unconsciously wiped out the role she played.

"But even if you didn't do the poisoning, is it right to plant it? Do you hate that kid that much? You invited me to Yuanfu today, didn't you ask me to be a witness to this matter? Although Mrs. Lu was still questioning, her tone was no longer as blunt as it was just now.

Situ Chan heard that this was Mrs. Lu who had already believed her statement, or at least she chose to believe it.

"It's really the second sister who was confused for a while, and today's time is also chosen by Na Hui'er, thinking that she is coming to see her aunt coming, and more people will testify to her. Chan'er promised that she would be optimistic about her sister in the future, and there would be no next time for the same thing. I just ask my aunt not to worry about this matter anymore, if you are angry because of this, then our sisters will be unhappy for the rest of their lives. ”

As she spoke, Situ Chan's eyes were faintly shining with tears, and the expression on her face was also full of guilt and remorse.

Situ Juan understood even if she was confused, so she quickly knelt down next to Situ Chan, like a child who had done something wrong, and lowered her head in shame.

Mrs. Lu looked at them like this, not at all like two noble ladies in charge, but like she went back to when they were children, the sisters did something wrong, and their mother insisted on punishing them. It was I back then who tried my best to intercede for them so that I would not be beaten.

But now, do you want to be the one who punishes them?

Finally, Mrs. Lu sighed heavily and said, "That's it, it's cold on the ground, let's get up first." ”

As soon as the sisters heard this, they knew that this was Mrs. Lu who had reached an understanding with them with her compromise. Therefore, they hurriedly thanked Mrs. Lu and helped each other up.

"Today's matter, even if no one pursues it anymore, I have a few words to tell you. Don't act according to your own likes and dislikes, think more about your own shortcomings, and don't have unnecessary resentment towards others, otherwise you will end up harming yourself. ”

The sisters quickly nodded yes.

"Also, even if the poisoning has nothing to do with you, I'm afraid that the old lady won't be able to pass this hurdle in her heart. And Xiyue's kid is too sensible now, I'm afraid he will have his own plans in his heart. Speaking of her, you must remember not to think about anything that you shouldn't have. Her biological mother died, but with so much favor she could get back then, who knows when the queen mother won't remember to ask about Xiyue's situation? But if something happens to her, the queen is angry, and I am afraid that your whole family will be implicated. ”

Old Madam Lu saw that they had been listening respectfully, but how much they could listen to was not something she could control. She only hoped that the situation she had assumed would not arise, for the child's eyes, though not annoying, were inscrutable.
