Three days later, at nightfall, Xiao Xia and a few people were having dinner when they suddenly heard that Uncle Wu was coming.

Several people got up to greet each other, but saw Uncle Wu carrying a thin and shriveled old woman in her forties and fifties and throwing it in.

Because it came suddenly, the old woman's appearance was shriveled and ugly, which frightened Xiao Xia and the others.

Yu Xiangxiang complained: "What are you doing, we are eating, isn't it unappetizing for you to bring such a person?" ”

Uncle Wu glanced at the table, scratched his head and smiled: "This ...... I don't know you're eating, Xiangxiang, what you asked me to do for you is done. ”

"It's done? My eldest sister was rescued. ”

"No, I found out the cause of your eldest brother-in-law's death, oh, it's this mother-in-law, who colluded with the old lady Naluo, first killed your eldest brother-in-law and his mother-in-law, and then killed your eldest brother-in-law, and your eldest sister and his father-in-law were all killed by these two femme fatales!"

"Huh? You... You... What do you say? I didn't understand! ”

"It's okay, let the old woman say it herself."

Uncle Wu kicked the old woman on the ground without pity, and said viciously: "Mrs. Wang, you honestly explain the reason for the matter, maybe I can let you go, otherwise none of your sons, grandsons, and even your whole family will be able to escape." ”

The old woman was so frightened that she trembled, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly: "The old man spares his life, the young lady spares his life, the old body will say everything, say everything!" I just ask you to let go of my children and grandchildren, every qiē is the old woman's own sin, the old body deserves to die! Damn the old body! ”

"Okay, as long as you explain honestly and cooperate with the identification, I won't touch your children and grandchildren, but if you have the slightest bit to hide, hum!"

Yu Xiangxiang, Xiao Xia and Laifu looked at each other. Uncle Wu's news came too suddenly, or too scary, Mrs. Luo killed her father-in-law's son, and the tiger poison does not eat children, so how ruthless does Mrs. Luo have to be? It's unbelievable.

However, after listening to the old lady's statement in front of them, several people will be shocked again.

According to this Mrs. Wang, at first, she and the current old lady of the Luo family, Liu Xiaoqin, were both the maids of the Huang family in the old lady of the Luo family, Luo Ming. And this winery was originally not surnamed Luo and Huang.

Huang's father and mother are extremely affectionate. It's a pity that the heirs are thin, and they only gave birth to a daughter, so they recruited a young and honest Luo Ming to take charge of the family business and take care of their daughter.

This Luo Ming seems to be honest and honest on the surface. In fact, it may not be peaceful.

After joining the Huang family, he openly respected his elders, loved his wife and children, and took care of the winery, and he did a good job, but in private, whenever someone mentioned his identity, he was a little ridiculed. This made him quite dissatisfied, and he was bent on getting rid of this so-called shame. I want to be the master of the house, and change the Huangjia Liquor Workshop to the Luo Family Liquor Workshop.

Liu Xiaoqin, the maid of the Huang family, is the current old lady of the Luo family who accidentally learned of her uncle's thoughts, not only did she not report her own miss, but secretly hooked up with Luo Ming. Privately plotting how to seize the Huang family's property.

After the Huang family became pregnant, Liu Xiaoqin used her identity to give medicine to the second elder of the Huang family, so that they slowly became sick and weakened. finally got to the Huang family to give birth to a son, and the two elders of the Huang family were happy. I went in peace.

In this way, the Huangjia Distillery changed its surname to Luo smoothly.

This result made Luo Ming very satisfied, but Liu Xiaoqin was not satisfied, because Luo Ming promised to leave the Huang family and straighten her up once he took the family property, but when the matter was done, Luo Ming regretted it.

only said that everyone already had a lot of complaints about him changing the surname of the winery, if he took a break from the Huang family at this time, wouldn't he be convicted of stealing the family property, in case the Huang family went to the government to shout grievances, wouldn't he be busy this trip in vain?

Anyway, the family property is in hand, the Huang family is low-key and virtuous, and he gave birth to a son for him, so there is no reason to have another incident.

Liu Xiaoqin didn't comply, she cried every day, and when she was in a hurry, Luo Ming promised to give her the name of a concubine, and she didn't even give her the deed of sale, for fear that she would know too much and go out and talk bad things.

Liu Xiaoqin hated it very much at that time but had no choice but to endure it, usually she was friendly with the Wang family, who was also a maid, and when she couldn't hold it back, she would complain to the Wang family, and then Liu Xiaoqin directly promised benefits and took the Wang family for her own use.

When Huang's son was half a year old, Liu Xiaoqin was also pregnant, and she was restless when she thought that she was still a slave, even if she gave birth to a son, she would not be able to share the family property, and she would have to give Huang's son a slave and a maid.

finally gritted his teeth, promised five hundred taels of silver to get rid of the benefits of slavery, and let the Wang family drug the Huang family, so that the originally happy Huang family only had one son, that is, the eldest sister Yu's father-in-law.

As soon as Huang died, Liu Xiaoqin was pregnant, Luo Ming had no reason to shirk, so he straightened Liu Xiaoqin by taking advantage of the situation, but there were conditions, she must treat her eldest son Luo Gang well, just like her own son, if there is anything wrong, even if he dies, Liu Xiaoqin's mother and daughter will not want to get half of the family property.

Luo Ming is so clear-eyed, and he is obviously aware of Liu Xiaoqin's methods and is still a little taboo, Liu Xiaoqin hates it in his heart, showing that he only promises and plans secretly.

Because the Huang family went early, the eldest son Luo Gang has not remembered, Luo Gang is equivalent to being raised by Liu Xiaoqin, and it is impossible to say that there is no emotion at all, otherwise Liu Xiaoqin would not have watched Luo Gang grow up and married her own son.

As for why Liu Xiaoqin wanted to attack Luo Ming and Luo Gang's father and son later, most likely because Luo Ming insisted on leaving all the family business to his eldest son Luo Gang, and the younger son only gave him a hundred or ten taels of silver to let him go out on his own, and then he didn't care.

No matter how close Luo Gang is, after all, he is not his own son, Liu Xiaoqin finally made a move, and now the Huang family has completely fallen into the hands of Liu Xiaoqin's mother and son, and the daughter-in-law and grandson of the Huang family, the young lady Liu Xiaoqin served back then, have now become the most inferior servants in the wine shop, and their identities are reversed, compared to Liu Xiaoqin, they are very hateful, right?

It's just that Liu Xiaoqin is using such a method, and no one in the Huang family will notice it? Just let her run wild? Luo Ming knew that this woman was a femme fatale, how could he rest assured that she would stay by his side? What's more, Luo Ming's eldest son Luo Gang obviously died before him, was he not alert at all? Still let Liu Xiaoqin kill herself?

Of course, this is just a question in Xiao Xia's heart, Yu Xiangxiang and Laifu were dumbfounded after hearing this, and stared at the honest and thin little pitiful Mrs. Wang on the ground with an incredible expression:

"You...... What you say is true? Yu Xiangxiang reconfirmed incredibly.

Mrs. Wang peeked at Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu's eyes were glaring, and she was so frightened that she shrunk her neck and kowtowed again and again: "It's really, it's definitely true." The old body didn't dare to tell half a lie. ”

The room was silent for a while, Yu Xiangxiang gritted her teeth and scolded: "This litter of wolves and dogs, there is no good thing from top to bottom, Dad, what are you going to do?" ”

Uncle Wu was stunned: "What do you call me?" ”

Yu Xiangxiang blushed and glanced at him unhappily: "What are you going to do later?" ”

Uncle Wu smiled and said, "The original story of the matter has been clarified, and it is up to you to do the rest." It's up to you to decide. ”

"Me?"

"You want to help your eldest sister. But your eldest sister has nothing to do with me, I only have my daughter. ”

Yu Xiangxiang didn't think so, but she was very happy in her heart. She grew up so big, and for the first time, she felt her father's love and concern, and that full of happiness filled her heart.

She pursed her lips and thought about it: "Liu Xiaoqin has harmed so many lives, she must not be let go." The winery originally belonged to the Huang family, so it should be inherited by my nephew Luo Xiaogang. No, the Luo family is not a thing, and he should be allowed to change his surname to Huang. My eldest sister...... Naturally, he wanted to break away from the Luo family and drive out all the snakes and scorpions. ”

Uncle Wu nodded thoughtfully: "That makes sense." The evidence is conclusive, it's not difficult to take them down, it's just ...... It's fragrant. Liu Xiaoqin, her son, daughter-in-law, and grandson were not involved in this matter, what should they do? ”

Yu Xiangxiang frowned: "They haven't been nice to my eldest sister either." Let's get out together. ”

"Well, that makes sense, so do it. Xiangxiang, you rest first, and you will go to Luo's house with me tomorrow. ”

"What are you doing at Luo's house? Didn't you go directly to the yamen? ”

"No, we have to meet your eldest sister first, after all, she is the sufferer, and if she wants to sue, she has to sue, and no one can do this for her. That's it, Laifu, Xiaoxia, you should rest early! ”

Uncle Wu said goodbye to a few people and took Mrs. Wang out again.

The next morning, Uncle Wu took Yu Xiangxiang to Luo's house, Xiao Xia and Laifu didn't follow, the matter should not be a big problem at this point, and they couldn't help much, but it was the Hou Mansion here, Laifu got the news, saying that the Hou Mansion was going to pick a few maids for the new young grandmother.

It is said that the second young grandmother is from the capital, and her habits are a little different from the local Jiangzhou, and the Hou Ye and his wife are left with this son, and the daughter-in-law who married has a good family background, so naturally there will be a lot of generals.

They originally planned to let the capital send a few maids over, thinking that the capital is too far away, it will take a month to come and go, these two daughters-in-law are pregnant, and it is when they need someone to take care of them, how can they be vacant for a month?

So this time, the Hou Mansion picks a maid, as long as the maid who has served in a big family from the capital is knowledgeable and understands the rules, isn't this condition just in line with himself?

Xiao Xia was secretly happy in her heart, as soon as Xiangxiang and them left, she urged Laifu to take herself to the Hou Mansion to apply, and Laifu was a little embarrassed: "Miss Xiaoxia, can you think about it, do you really want to go alone?" ”

Xiao Xia nodded affirmatively.

"But...... But what should you do if you are bullied when you enter the house? ”

Xiao Xia smiled, took out a pen and paper and shook it, saying that he could communicate by writing, and it was no big deal.

Laifu is still not at ease: "Miss Xiaoxia, although there will be more literate people in the Hou Mansion, not everyone is literate, not to mention that the young master told the little one to take care of you, if you have something to do, you don't know how to help you?" Why don't we think of another way? At least bring Sister Xiangxiang with you, it's always good to have someone to take care of. ”

Xiao Xia lowered her eyebrows, Xiangxiang is busy now, and it is rare to find a family, she finally got out of slavery, and her father and mother will definitely not let her follow up.

Xiao Xia patted Laifu on the shoulder, saying that he would take good care of himself, and then packed up his baggage and walked out.

Laifu really couldn't persuade him, so he could only sigh and follow.

The two came to a small alley where the side gate of the Hou Mansion was located, and there were no outsiders in the Hou Mansion family in that alley.

Originally, I thought that the conditions for the Hou Mansion to find maids were harsh, and there would not be too many people to apply, but this was not the case, when they arrived, there was already a long queue in the alley, from the alley to the street, and there were people following the queue one after another.

Laifu scratched his head and muttered, "Why are there so many people?" It's just a maid, as for it? ”

Xiao Xia followed the crowd in the line, Laifu accompanied him, and the two observed and found that not only young women were coming to apply, but also middle-aged women in their thirties and forties, as well as pregnant women.

As soon as Lai Fu inquired, he learned that this time the Hou Mansion not only had to choose a maid for the second young grandmother, but also a few nurses and rough mothers-in-law, etc., and the remuneration was twice as high as that of people elsewhere. Listening to this meaning, the people around the second young grandmother have to be changed from the inside out!

Who is this second young grandmother, there is such a big battle within a few days of coming to her mother-in-law's house, isn't she afraid of offending her mother-in-law's family?

There are more people, there is more news, and Laifu is a talker, so he quickly inquired clearly, it is said that this second young grandmother is the daughter of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites in Beijing, and her surname is Zhuang Silian.

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu is a member of the first rank in the court, and his daughter is willing to marry in Jiangzhou, obviously the Hou Mansion is high, and the Hou Mansion is not allowed to hold her and let her let her? After all, the second son's foundation is weak, and if he wants to make his hereditary title and make the Hou Mansion prosperous, he has to rely on the power of the banker.

They lined up at the door for an hour, seeing that the queue was getting longer and longer, but there was no movement in front, and no one came out to say a word.

It shouldn't be, it's obviously the news released by the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, someone Yazi brought a few waves of people in before, and none of them were selected, and that person was still muttering and scolding when he went out.

Seeing that it was almost noon, some people who couldn't stand it had begun to disperse one after another, and Laifu also let Xiao Xia come back after eating, but Xiao Xia didn't move and waited.

It wasn't until after noon that the side door opened, and two middle-aged women wearing gold and silver came out, and they didn't know which master of the house they were when they were dressed and arrogant, but Xiao Xia recognized them at a glance, one of them was Mother Du, who was waiting by Mrs. Tian's side.

A woman with a loud voice stood up and shouted, "Quiet! Be quiet! Everyone, listen up, come to apply for the second young grandmother and maid stand on the left wall, apply for the nurse and the rough mother-in-law stand on the right wall, and the idle people will all withdraw. ”

Everyone made a mess, and the accompanying people left one after another, Laifu was a little worried about Xiao Xia, and persuaded for the last time: "Miss Xiao Xia, let's go back!" You can't get by. ”

Xiao Xia shook his head, and pushed him, signaling him to leave quickly, and followed the other girls against the left wall, standing with their eyebrows lowered and standing in a proper manner.

After the scene was cleared, the woman said loudly again: "This is our wife's Hongren Mother Tian and Gui's mother, the primary selection is decided by them, the selected ones stand up and gather in the alley, and those who are not selected can go home!" (To be continued.) )
