In October 1920, the Cantonese warlord Chen Jiongming led his troops to defeat the Gui army and retake Guangdong. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info most of the reporters surrounding Jiangningfang have gone, but there will still be a few reporters who are unwilling to give up insisting on waiting at the door, wanting to explore the past and present life of the Qi family.

It was already dark, and I came out of my mother's room and walked alone with my stiff neck. The first half of the day was terrified, and the second half of the day was obviously not much better. Han's mother chattered for a long time, judging from her understanding of the maid at home, she could basically rule out the possibility of sprinkling the girl, and the woman said in the morning that she heard the news from the conversation of the kitchen man, so the possibility of the cook was much smaller. In this way, the target can basically be locked on the two daughters-in-law of the concierge.

Tonight's moon has come up, the yellow round cake is like the jade satin in the mother's hand during the day, and like the evening laurel in the courtyard of the west hall is stained with a layer of falling flowers reflected in the well, I walked quietly on the way back to the embroidery building, and I was surprised that I could be so calm and clear.

Some people say that the ultimate happiness exists in the deep sea of loneliness.

Our family has lived a peaceful and prosperous life for decades, although we have experienced a few twists and turns in the past, but we have never had such a situation of internal and external troubles as we are now.

I can't help but think of my grandmother who taught me to embroidery when I was young, and I was impatient at that time, so I always took advantage of the gap between her and Han's mother to play a few points of incense ash on the embroidery shelf, and when the silk was burned, I didn't have to be forced to learn to be a virtuous lady.

When my grandmother found out and poked me on the forehead and scolded, I would always shake my head and tell her: "The Art of War says: Put yourself to death and then live." I burned the silk, and my grandmother didn't ask me to spoil the good stuff anymore for the sake of other good materials. ”

I have forgotten what my grandmother said at that time. It's just that tonight's moonlight reminds me of the past.

When I got up the next day, my whole body was sore and my head was swollen. In the water tank in the house, one of the two small golden fish was lying straight in the water, as if it was dead. I sat on the edge of the bed for a while, feeling less uncomfortable, and then got up and walked to the main room.

There was a buzzing voice, and in the courtyard stood a row of servants in blue cotton clothes, men and women standing side by side, talking to each other. The mother sat in the middle, with a solemn and solemn face. After a while, Han's mother came in from outside, holding a cyan porcelain jar in her hand. The mother exclaimed, "What else do you have to say?"

"What's going on?"

"You're here." When my mother saw me coming over, she got up and said to Mother Han, "Bring a bowl of porridge to the second lady."

"Mother, what are you doing here?"

"There was a thief in the house, your father's study was burglarized last night, and a vase from Zhuzhishan in the Ming Dynasty was lost, as well as an ancient book from the former Qing Dynasty. Han's mother took two little servants to check and found this porcelain jar in Chen Qing's bedroom. ”

"Madam, we are being blamed!" As his mother was talking, Chen Qing and his daughter-in-law had already knelt on the bluestone slab with a thud, kowtowing incessantly.

I just told my mother about that incident yesterday, and today there is such a situation, and I am a little confused for a while, I wonder if my mother is singing on stage. Cold sweat broke out in his head, and the discomfort of waking up in the morning came alive again.

Mother's loud words sounded in my ears: "Now it is an eventful time at home, although I am tolerant of you on weekdays, it does not mean that I, the housewife, am just a decoration." If you expect that the old man is not at home and think that I am a woman and a Taoist family, then you have the wrong idea. Now that I stand up and take the initiative to admit my mistakes, I can consider not being responsible for the past mistakes, otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face and ruthlessly settling new accounts and old accounts together. ”

After waiting for his mother to finish speaking, Mu Bo asked someone to bring a bench and put it in the middle of the courtyard, and two people stood next to him with boards. When everyone saw this battle, they were startled, and two of them were not convinced, so they muttered quietly: "What's the matter, I don't usually practice people, but now my family is like this, and they actually opened a knife on us."

When the mother heard this, she was not angry: "You are right, I don't embarrass you on weekdays, I think that home and everything is prosperous, and some things can pass and pass." Now that my family is in an eventful time, I have become a thief, which I absolutely cannot tolerate. ”

I didn't approve of such a blatant approach, but now that the matter had become a big deal, my mother began to carefully recognize everyone's obedient expressions at that time.

This scene has already alarmed my sister. It was difficult for her to come out today, and when she saw a group of people standing in the courtyard, she couldn't help but ask in surprise: "What's wrong today?" Singing Church? ”

The mother was about to answer, when a little servant hurriedly ran in and hurriedly said, "Mrs., Mrs., Laifu was not found, but his body was found in the backyard."

"You...... What do you say......"
