Chapter 5: The Thirty Boards of the Rod

Yongcheng Waiting House, Feiyu Temple

Qian looked at the newly painted nails and asked casually, "Is that really what Miss Fourth said?" ”

Chunzhu knelt on the ground, his forehead against the back of his hand, and looked respectful: "Yes, madam." ”

Qian glanced at Chunzhu lightly, his eyes paused on the crimson brocade white fox fur collar cloak on Chunzhu's body, and then swept past Xia He, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei who knelt in a row one by one, and the second- and third-class maids and mothers-in-law who were kneeling in the back rows and were bewitched by the four of them to leave Zhuangzi together, and returned to the mansion to complain, a flash of annoyance flashed in their eyes: "Come on, take off their clothes, drag them down, and punish them with thirty boards!" ”

…… And then what?

Is it to be kicked out of the house and never hired?

Or is it directly distributed to Zhuangzi, from a first-class maid who everyone envies, to an inferior servant who can be trampled on by anyone?

Or is it directly sold to a remote place, and from then on, no one knows about birth, old age, sickness and death, let alone return to the homeland?

Or, just kill you?

Chunzhu, who couldn't wait for the expected sentence, had a lot of speculations in his heart, the blood on his face faded, his body trembled like chaff, he was shocked and frightened, afraid and regretful, kowtowed heavily, and tried his best to argue for himself and others: "The dresses and accessories on the slave maid and others are all the rewards of the fourth lady, please ask the lady to learn from it." ”

Xia He also echoed: "Madam, the maid didn't dare to accept such a reward at first, but the fourth lady said that if the maid and the others didn't accept it, they would look down on her as the master, so the maid and the others could only accept it with trepidation." ”

Qiu Ju added: "Madam, the fourth young lady hates the General's Mansion. Initially, when she received the items sent by the General's Mansion, the fourth lady smashed all the items sent by the General's Mansion in front of the housekeeper of the General's Mansion. After that, although the General's Mansion still sent more items, it became clothes that were not easy to be damaged, and the fourth lady was unwilling to accept these items, so she specially instructed the slaves and maids to not report to her after receiving the items sent by the General's Mansion, and just distribute them by themselves. ”

Dongmei made up for the last knife: "The fourth lady has always said that she is destined to get ahead, and she has rich dowry items, so she doesn't have to rush to get close to the people in the General's Mansion." ”

……

Qian lowered his eyes slightly, and his long eyelashes covered the resentment in his eyes.

"Mama Yu, take them down!"

"Yes." The old woman, who had been standing behind Qian, in her early forties, dressed in a navy blue dress and with a straight face, gave people a gloomy feeling of approachability, and ordered the rough servants to tie up Chunzhu, Xia He, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei.

Madame...... "Spare your life!" Fourth Lady, she has always "pretended to be a pig and eats a tiger", and she has long understood your strategy of "praising and killing", but she has been pretending to be confused, and she is still infinitely powerful......

wanted to explain himself and others, and then by the way, let Qian and Du Zhixuan officially face each other, so that the words that could miss the responsibility of finding these little shrimps were still swirling in their throats, and the next moment, a group of maids and daughters-in-law led by Chunzhu were gagged, stripped of their coats, and dragged out of the courtyard.

"Smack! Syllable!! ”

Accompanied by the sound of the board repeating again, there was a thicker and thicker smell of blood in the air.

Mama Yu raised her head and found that Chunzhu and other maids-in-law had all their relatives in the mansion, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Madame is kind-hearted, let you be a ghost." In fact, before you returned to the house, the fourth lady had already sent someone to the house and asked Madame to execute you. So, if you want to complain, complain about Miss Four. When you get to the underworld, don't forget who to seek revenge on! ”

The breath that Chunzhu and the others had been choking in their throats immediately dissipated, but from the faces full of anger and grievances, and the eyelids that couldn't be closed, you could know how deep the resentment was in their hearts! Even, there is a faint ridicule and ridicule in their hearts - even if they are ghosts, they have to watch how the Qian family was torn apart by Du Zhixuan, the big-tailed wolf who "pretends to be a little sheep", and when they think about it, they feel that the scene is enough to make people happy!

"Carry it down and bury it." Mama Yu shook her head, her eyes swept over everyone's family members, and said, "Go back, and each family will find an account room to receive fifty taels of silver." ”

As soon as the words fell, Mama Yu turned around and left, and, behind her, there was a choking cry, and occasionally you could hear the low curses and resentful words of Du Zhixuan, the fourth lady who was brave and honest to wait for the governor.

Mama Yu paused as she stepped forward, and the corners of her mouth twitched, drawing a strange arc on her stern face.

……

Qian reclined in the soft collapse, holding the account book in his hand, looking at it slowly, and from time to time he picked up a pen or ticked or circled to make various marks.

It wasn't until the sun was about to set in the west that Mama Yu reminded: "Madam, it's time to go and dine with the old lady." ”

Qian answered, closed the account book in his hand, and asked casually as Mama Yu stepped forward to massage her sore forehead, "Mama Yu, what do you think about today's matter?" ”

"Madam, the old slave thinks that you don't need to focus on the fourth lady." Mama Yu thought for a while, and added with a slight hook on the corner of her mouth: "Even if the fourth lady really listens to some people's words, she only knows a little about it. "Otherwise, how could Du Zhixuan make the move of sending Chunzhu and the others back to the house directly!

This is a man, half a jar of water is not terrible, the terrible thing is that he doesn't know!

Qian nodded: "Mama Yu, what you said makes some sense, but I still keep an eye on this girl, I don't want anything to go wrong." ”

"Yes." Mama Yu answered, called the maid ring who was waiting outside the door, and after redressing the Qian family, she followed Qian Shi to Lixiang Courtyard.

Along the way, the greetings were endless, and all of them looked at Qian with a respectful, admiring and fearful gaze.

It wasn't until after seeing the Qian family enter the Lixiang Courtyard that a few people who got the hints from Mama Yu and Mama Gu, the two most trusted companions of the Qian family, mixed in the crowd and left quietly, or to prevent the other ladies from going to the Lixiang Courtyard, or to inform the mother-in-law who was guarding the door, and if Du Shilang returned to the house, he tried his best to lead him to the Lixiang Courtyard......

"Mother, I really can't do anything about Xuan'er......" Qian's face was full of bitterness, shook his head, sighed, took out an embroidered handkerchief dipped in ginger juice, wiped the corners of his eyes, and immediately turned red, and tears slipped down his cheeks.

The old lady pinched the fingers of the Buddha beads and paused, frowned slightly and looked at the Qian family, who came to her every three or five days, and turned her mind a few times, thinking of the killing of four maid rings in the yard today, and immediately understood that the Qian family wanted to borrow her land again and punish Du Zhixuan, a disobedient girl, with her son's hand.

However, on the surface, the old lady pretended not to know and asked, "What happened?" ”

Qian's fingers pinching the handkerchief tightened, and the old lady was relieved of power on the surface, but, in fact, she was still concerned about the affairs of the inner house. She ordered someone to kill four maids, how could she hide it from the old lady? And, as a stepmother, even if it is Du Zhixuan's aunt, she can't sue in front of the old lady, otherwise, if outsiders know about it, I don't know what words will come out!

While secretly hating in his heart, Qian also covered his eyes with an embroidered handkerchief again: "Alas, ......"

Mama Yu, who received the hint from Qian's eyes, took a few steps forward, lowered her head, and told the old lady the scene that happened in the yard today, including the words spoken by the four girls Chunzhu, Xia He, Qiu Ju and Dong Mei before they died.

"Mother, how I treat Xuan'er, everyone sees it, but this girl would say such a thing, so that my heart is like soaking in bitter cold water condensed from tears......"
