Chapter 233: Scrapping Chess (II)
The old house of the Chen family was quiet, and for several days people only dared to talk quietly, and if they walked faster than usual, they would have to be scolded by the steward.
When the night was dark and the sky was high, several families living in the back cover room moved someone to the empty building overnight, where did they go? Are people still alive? Was he pulled out by someone while the light was blind? Or did you run away with your own baggage?
The slaves who lived next to them didn't dare to inquire blindly, but only dared to gather together in twos and threes, and take advantage of the darkness to communicate with each other.
"It's all the people who have a good face next to the second girl and her wife, and the Xiaoque family got rid of their nationality and ran fast, and they brought their daughters here. I haven't seen the girl in the little finch for a few days, eighty percent is "the fat aunt's hand pulled to the neck," "Click" eighty percent is" and suppressed the voice again, but the words fell very seriously, "Eighty percent is a burp!" ”
has a handful of his own girl behind his back, if that maid is still alive, he will be ashamed of Chen Xian's reputation!
Everyone said yes.
Is the sparrow still alive?
Chen Wan also wanted to know, but she didn't dare to ask, her light breath could disrupt the rhythm of this hidden hut, she had been kneeling for almost three days, right? No, she didn't know how many days had passed, the window lattices of the hut were all covered with black paper, she couldn't calculate the time through the sun, moon and stars through the window, as soon as she came back from the eldest princess's mansion, she didn't even see her father's face, and was crumpled into this hut by several mothers-in-law.
The hut was empty, with no stools, no tables, no lights, and only two fierce grandmothers stood.
She had to kneel against the door, or the two mothers-in-law would bend her knees with their feet one by one. Forced her to kneel.
Chen Wan knew that this was the posture of torturing death row prisoners in the prison. It was also her father's way of expressing his anger.
Don't speak. Unable to communicate, she bent over her knees in the vast empty dark room to first break her defenses, then frustrate her sharpness, and then vent her anger at the unprovoked destruction of her plan
I can sleep at night, I am so tired that I can fall asleep even if I kneel on the ground even if I stand up, and every time I sleep for half a time, my mother-in-law will take cold water to wash my face, and a spirit will wake up.
Chen Wan lifted her chin slightly. Half-squinted, trying to catch the light through the crack in the door, the movement naturally involved the stiff back, the curled thighs, and the knees that were no longer conscious.
There was a "crunch", and the thin line of yellowish light in the crack of the door slowly became spacious.
Chen Wan's hands were tied behind her back, her body leaned forward, she slowly squinted her eyes and looked up, her pupils gradually narrowed, and her lips were hoarse and she spoke softly.
"Did Zhou Pingning come to propose?"
He spoke very slowly, and his voice was hoarse like grit under the impact of water. It was like a low murmur from the muffled sound of three feet underground.
She was taught by Chen Xian, and she understands it too well. If Zhou Pingning doesn't come to propose marriage for a long time, at most five days, she will be sent to Wanzhou, and after half a year, she will be gone, whether she dies or goes to other farther places, it all depends on whether her mother can persuade her father.
Under the backlight, the figure of the person who came was inexplicably long and thin, and Chen Wan's tone was like a question, but the words were very determined.
The figure of the person who came was stagnant, avoided his eyes and couldn't bear to look at it anymore, turned sideways and said softly: "Your father is here." ”
The black paper was torn off, and two Taishi chairs with backrests, a small wooden case, and two candlesticks were moved one after another. Chen Wan was pulled up by her mother-in-law and pressed to the stool to sit, she only felt that her legs were hanging under her waist like two wooden sticks, the candlelight mixed with the daylight, and suddenly the light brightened, Chen Wan closed her eyes tightly and opened them suddenly, and she just saw her father wearing a square scarf on his head, pacing behind his hands.
The whole body shook unconsciously.
Chen Wan lowered her head, she could even clearly smell the smell of decaying wood on her body, fortunately, what she emitted was not the smell of dead corpses.
"When did it start?"
Chen Xian's voice was very calm.
"Five years ago, when I came to Beijing from Wanzhou"
"I'm asking when that maid started to look strange!"
Chen Xian interrupted Chen Wan's words in a deep voice.
Chen Wan's hands were shaking, and after clenching them tightly into fists, her hands still couldn't stop shaking, and the torture of three days and three nights made her brain feel like a mess, and she had to wake up.
"About three days before the Spring Banquet, Xiaoque said that she was sick and couldn't come into the house to serve, so I gave her a three-day vacation."
Chen Xian curled the corners of his lips, and his expression looked sarcastic: "Do you know where you lost?" ”
Chen Wan's spine was cold, she was stunned for a while, and raised her head with a very stubborn expression: "I haven't lost yet, Zhou Pingning came to propose, you don't want to end up with the cold-blooded name of the Chen family for the sake of the reputation of the whole Chen family, and you will marry me out, it doesn't matter if you are a wife or a concubine, as long as I am alive, I will not be defeated." ”
"You're dead!"
Chen Xian was furious: "There will be no more Empress Chen in this world!" You have lost to blind trust and too much conceit! You thought the maid wouldn't be backwater, but she turned out to be the opposite. You thought that Zhou Pingning would fight all the sins on his shoulders, but he tore you off the quagmire together! In the end, you still pinned your hopes on Zhou Pingning to come to propose, so I won't be ruthless to you! Fool! Fool! You don't know that He Xingzhao should not move when he still has a backhand! Why did you put all your bets on Zhou Pingning? That maid appeared, you shouldn't have given He Xingzhao and Zhou Pingning a chance to talk directly at all! As soon as you come back from the Spring Banquet, you should show weakness, whether it is pretending to be sick or self-harming! You'll have to get my attention to make me give you one last stand! After being slapped by Zhou Pingning, he even put his hope on him. The stinks, but you eat it once and want to eat it a second time. Chen Wan, what is the difference between your mind and your sister's? ”
Chen Wan's eyes widened and she quietly stared at her angry father.
That's how she grew up, so she became so selfish, ruthless, and determined, can you blame her?
She should have been the Dinghai Divine Needle after the Chen family's victory, but now she has become the gap that broke through the Chen family's chess game
Chen Xian gradually calmed down, looked at his second daughter, and quickly moved his eyes to other places, swallowed the bitter taste in his mouth with difficulty, and said in a steady voice: "This is the last time I will teach you." The daughter of the Chen family can't be a concubine, if you die, no one is there, and all my teachings are in vain. Marrying Zhou Pingning, An An is divided into a concubine's wife, since Zhou Pingning dares to come over to propose marriage afterwards, at least it can prove that his courage is not small. If you can't even get rid of the mustard buried in Zhou Pingning's heart, I will give birth to you for nothing. ”
She went from a gap to an outcast.
Chen Wan laughed, she has no value when she dies, she can at least hold Zhou Pingning alive
Her life or death is determined by her worth.
Chen Yuan pointed out that the fourth eldest was married, and her father did not hesitate to slap the face of the fourth prince and the heavenly family in order to get the greatest benefit from this marriage.
The two lights mixed together, Chen Xian shook his robe and stood up, and said as he walked straight forward: "The news that the palace has heard is that the situation has changed. You have to hold Zhou Pingning, you want him to turn left, he can't turn right, this is your last value. Remember what I said, people are valuable in this world, the cheaper you are, the sooner you die, the more expensive you are, the longer you live, the better you live. Let me see your worth. ”
"If you can't be Queen Chen, if you become a regent princess, our Chen family will not lose." (To be continued......)
ps: A-Yuan knows that this chapter is too thin, but A-Yuan can't hold it, and then the stomach disease recurs during the New Year, and tomorrow there will be two more chapters to make up for today's difference, everyone!
