"Minsheng Daily" recently published a news news about the "mysterious deaths of servants one after another". Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Liu Fu, a former Qing Han Lin family, once again stepped on the cusp of public opinion after the hot news that "the new Minister of Education Gu Rulin will marry Miss Liu Fu". The porter Chen had a personal grudge with the deceased Laifu for seven years, Chen was kind and enthusiastic on the surface, but in fact he was afraid of the deceased behind his back. Finally, in the course of an early morning quarrel between the two, the deceased was killed by Chen from behind, and Chen himself was arrested by the police station in Liu's Mansion in the early morning two days later. At the same time, within half an hour after Chen was arrested, the Nanjing Stone Town Police Department received a report from Liu Fu again, it turned out that after Chen was arrested, the servant was killed again in the corridor of the West Hall in the backyard of Liu's house, and the protagonist of this incident was a 16-year-old girl named Xiaoqing. It is reported that the deceased was also killed by a knife from behind, and the time of death was less than half an hour. What is surprising is that with the same method, the suspect of the former has just been arrested, and there is no time for the second case, but the murder methods of the two deaths are bizarrely similar. Is it a frame-up? Or does it happen to be the same?

All of a sudden, Nanjing's big newspapers and tabloids have set off a wave of national detectives, and people after tea and dinner are curiously discussing: Who is the murderer? Did Nanjing's famous Stone Town Police Department arrest the wrong person?

It's been three days since I read the newspaper.

Three days ago, after Dr. Feng answered the doubts in everyone's hearts one by one, he personally arranged acupuncture and medicine therapy for Gu Shaoqing. Subsequently, under the cover of Haizhu and Shifang, Gu Shaoqing smoothly left Liu's Mansion and returned to Ningyuan to recuperate. The next day, the third uncle's coffin was transported back to Nanjing from Shanghai and stopped in the ancestral hall of the family. One after another, people began to come to offer their condolences, and the first person to arrive was Mr. Gu, who had not appeared for 20 days -- Gu Rulin, the new minister of education, who had already taken office.

After his father came back, he wanted to give a resolute response to the news of the tabloids, but a lot of things bothered him, and before he could figure it out, Mr. Gu was the first to come to mourn like the head of his own family. Soon, the people of Nanjing City had acquiesced to the authenticity of the news on their own initiative, just waiting for the two to become a good couple.

Father and mother seemed to have received a sudden blow, and after the two saw the reports of public opinion these days, they sighed slightly, and they didn't even have the last strength to argue, and the whole person collapsed and sat on the recliner behind them.

But something worse awaited them, because by chance, I was locked up in a zen room in the garden, and I invisibly discovered the secret of my grandmother's death three years ago.

The so-called "functional failure, old age and death" is just the surface, and the truly terrible inner is still waiting for me, my sister and everyone else to dig closer.

I looked at the newspaper and couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts.

Mother Han walked in with the boiled lotus seed porridge, and after this incident, I really didn't understand how to face her identity. For three days, when the two of us were left alone, I watched her no longer laugh and scold in addition to silence and silence. Mother Han looked at me several times and stopped talking, thinking of what she had said before, and endured it again. The two of us twisted like this, holding each other's breath, but after all, we couldn't withstand the discomfort in our hearts.

"Mama Han, I have something to ask you......" I shouted.

At the same time, Han's mother also put down the lotus seed porridge and said thoughtfully, "Miss, I have something to say to you......"

We were so close that I could smell the scent of osmanthus oil on her head, the most familiar smell I had since I was a child, but I was not sure if it was reliable. Han's mother smiled and said, "What does Miss want to ask?"

I don't know how to answer.

"Miss has nothing to tell me?" Han's mother asked, "In the past, you loved to tell me interesting things that happened around you." ”

I thought about it for a while, and Mu Ran said, "In that case, let me tell you an interesting story that I learned a few days ago." I just don't know, do you want to hear it? ”

Han's mother sighed and said, "It seems that Miss is really alienated from me." She looked at the porridge in front of her and smiled helplessly: "Miss I grew up watching, no matter how much you complain about me being nosy, Mother Han still has a few words to say to Miss today."

I'd love to ask her if Laifu's death had anything to do with her, and was she the one who delivered the note to the man in black that day?

At first, my sister and I thought that Xiaoqing was the inner ghost of the family, but later when I talked to my senior brother about this and Xiaoqing was killed in a blink of an eye, we have clearly analyzed: Xiaoqing can only be a person who has been bought to run errands for others, and the real inner ghost has not appeared! Is he Han's mother?

I didn't dare bet, so I held back the question in front of me and waited for her to speak first.

Sure enough, Han's mother didn't wait for my answer to speak first, and what she said was not what I wanted to hear: "Mr. Gu has already visited the family in front of reporters, and there are so many things, he is still willing to marry the eldest lady, and the old lady will probably agree." In the past, the family would argue whether to agree with the eldest lady, but now, even if the second wife is making trouble, the old lady may not care about her. In such a situation, Miss, you have to think about your next situation. Once the eldest lady becomes Mrs. Gu, whether it is the step-room or the aunt's wife, you can't meet with Young Master Gu in private anymore, let alone let him appear in your room again, otherwise the news will leak and Miss's life will be ruined. Last time, I saw Young Master He send you back, and suddenly felt that Young Master He was also a talent, with an extraordinary family background, and he was no worse than Young Master Gu, why didn't Miss think about it? ”

"It turns out that Han's mother wants to talk to me about this?" I frowned, looking disappointed, "I'm afraid I'm going to let you worry about it in vain, I don't plan to give up Senior Brother." Even if my sister and Mr. Gu are engaged, I won't give up, as long as they are not married. ”

"Is Miss angry with me? Gambling on your own happiness? ”

I scoffed and laughed, "Why am I angry with you?"

"If you break off with Young Master Gu a day earlier, Miss will be able to suffer one less day. You are a person who has been educated in the new school of thought, and you will not be ignorant of this truth. ”

I laughed, "Mama Han, did you know me on the first day?" ”

"Although the previous young lady was naughty, she would not drill herself for love. Miss has changed! ”

When I think of my brother, I feel that all kinds of difficulties are loosened, and I don't care what others think of me. "I've changed, and I'm naughty when there are so many things happening at home, isn't it because of my grandmother's teachings. When it comes to Han's mother, she doesn't spoil me as much as before. ”

Mother Han smiled and said in a sour tone: "I hurt Miss's heart, Miss can't see it." When she saw my disapproving appearance, she sighed unconsciously, "A man's **** is like spring water, and when he is in love, he can go to heaven and earth for you, born and die." The love is weak, and it is not abandoned like a shoe, and it is thrown away like a mustard. Could it be that Young Master Gu would give up his identity as the son of the Minister of Education for you? Miss, at your age, you naturally don't understand. But if you don't understand, there are good things you don't understand, people, it's rare to be confused, so you can enjoy yourself. If you live too clearly, you will be tired of others after all! Just Miss...... Have you thought about the consequences of doing so? ”

Consequence?

The night outside the window was dark and moonless, and a thin layer of frost had formed on the window lattice. It's late autumn, and although the weather has been sunny these days, it is obviously a little colder than before. It was almost November, and the chill in Nanjing had gradually intensified in the lingering autumn rain one after another. Under the dark sky, I saw Han Ma's face haggard and her voice was hoarse, as if recalling the past, which was painful.

Fifty-three years ago, ten-year-old Han's mother and her biological parents fled from Tianjin to the capital, and met a rich son who rushed to Beijing. Later, Gongzi was successfully promoted and stayed in the capital as a Beijing official. In order to repay her son's life-saving grace to her family, Han's mother wanted to repay her for life with her life. But helplessly, the son's family already had Qingmei who had just married as his wife, and he didn't want to mistake Han's mother because of this.

Later, Han's mother's family improved because of the donations given by her son-in-law back then, and the family quickly gained a firm foothold in the capital. At this time, the son of a rich family was released by the court because he offended the officials, and Han's mother thought that with her own efforts, she could finally have a trace of almost equal status with her son. However, what awaits her is indeed a long separation between the two.

Han Ma was originally from a Manchurian background, and her family was originally considered a little wealthy, but during the Second Opium War, the British and French forces fought all the way to Dagukou, which made the originally well-off Han family defeated. In the next few years, seeing that it was becoming more and more unsupportable, Han's mother and family moved the idea of going to the capital, but unfortunately on the way to escape the famine, they met their younger brother and were deceived by human traffickers, and all the money was used by her parents to find her younger brother.

Creation always loves to make people, after the son was released, Han's mother broke off her benefactor's mind and started her own little jasper wholeheartedly. In the tenth year of Tongzhi, the fourteen-year-old Han Ma was selected as a show girl to enter the palace and became the palace maid of the Guangchu Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Three years later, Tongzhi Ye died, and all the palace maids who were elected to the palace in the Tongzhi Dynasty were released by Lafayette, and Han's mother was fortunate to see her lifelong lover again. It turned out that with the death of Emperor Tongzhi, the official transfer of the imperial court was reshuffled again, and the rich son was fortunate to return to the center stage in this personnel transfer because of his outstanding political achievements.

At this time, Han's mother returned home, and her parents were all old. In the past three years, when Han's mother entered the palace as a palace maid, his parents never gave up looking for their son who was lost in the desert. And the originally well-off family, because of the excessive payment again, can no longer be revitalized, except for the young Han Ma.

The rich boy shot again, but this time, it was the beginning of a lifetime of debt abuse. He is not her lover after all, but he is the beginning of her life's work. And the rich boy in the story is my grandfather - Liu Chongxun.
