Chapter 232: Choose One of the Two Paths (Double Change in One Chapter)

"What the third lady said is extremely true, it is the slave and the maid who are wrong, and the slave and maid are at their mercy." Zizhu's tears welled up again.

She didn't think of any of this, she just wanted to be relieved.

And if the third lady didn't agree to help at that time, she would indeed hate it, or hate it deeply.

It wasn't until she saw Qi Changxin's ugly face that she realized how stupid she was, but fortunately she met the third lady and saved her life.

The third lady and the fifth lady helped her get out of the predicament, but she didn't expect to cause these troubles to the third lady.

Shen sighed, "Zizhu, in order for you not to become the object of imitation by others, and for my own own future to have less trouble, I really want to punish you, and I will punish you severely." ”

Zizhu didn't dare to object.

"Mother Yun, take Zizhu down, and send him out of the mansion after fifty canes, so far he is no longer a person from our Anning Hou Mansion." Shen said.

"Yes, ma'am." Mother Yun replied.

Fifty rods are beaten, and half a life is removed if you don't die.

Zizhu secretly gasped in his heart.

But what else can she say, the road is her own choice, and she has to bear the consequences by herself.

"Zizhu bids farewell to the third lady." Zizhu solemnly kowtowed to Shen again.

Shen Shi looked at Zizhu, sighed slightly, and said, "Zizhu, if you regret it now, there are two paths in front of you, either you may die, or you will become the concubine of An Ninghou, although it will not be infinitely beautiful, but at least you can enjoy the glory and wealth, which one do you choose?" ”

Zizhu cried and shook her head, "The slave and maid thank the third lady for her love, the slave and maid have a thin life." There is no blessing to be consumed by glory and wealth, life and death are fateful, and slaves and maids choose the first one. No regrets. ”

"I respect your choice, as long as you don't regret it, Mother Yun, take her down." Shen waved his hand.

Zizhu kowtowed to Shen again, and then went down with Yun's mother to receive the punishment.

Looking at Zizhu's thin but stubborn back, a touch of sadness slipped through Shen's eyes.

This is fate, but how unjust.

Some people don't want to be motivated. Just because he was born in a wealthy family, he is destined to be rich and glorious in his life. Some people are born proud, but their poor birth will break their proud bones.

Zizhu would rather die than be a concubine. In the eyes of some people, they may think she is stupid, think she is pretentious, and think she is ridiculous, but this is her last pride and persistence in this world. The original heart that must be held even if you die.

The news of Zizhu's reprimanding soon spread throughout the Anning Marquis Mansion. Everyone was shocked.

Especially those maids, last night they were still envious of Zizhu for getting fat, and the Shen family is willing to take such a hard time to save her, and they will definitely reuse her in the future, and they can follow the Shen family to eat and drink spicy food in the future.

Who knew that it was just one night's work, and the Shen family changed his face greatly, and he severely punished Zizhu with fifty sticks.

They all knew very well what fifty rods meant. Not to mention a delicate little girl like Zizhu, even if she is a big man and three thick. I also have to break the skin and flesh and lose half my life.

Thinking of the pain of being scolded with a stick and a cane, as well as Zizhu, whose life and death were uncertain, they couldn't help but shudder, and couldn't help muttering in their hearts, the third lady is really ruthless!

When Ma Shi learned the news, he was stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses, and a cold glint flashed in his sharp eyes.

The Shen family was really ruthless, thinking that she was going to sell her deed after saving Zizhu, because she wanted to let Zizhu out of the house, but who would have expected that she would punish Zizhu. And the punishment is so heavy, it is clearly to Zizhu to die!

It seems that the Shen family is not as benevolent as he imagined, and he is also ruthless, and this method is still as good as the old body.

As to why Shen wanted to punish Zizhu, Ma understood very well.

Alas, Zizhu, Zizhu, you think that asking for Shen's help is to find a way to survive, but in fact, you are seeking your own death.

Although Zizhu used to be the big girl by Ma's side, but now that she has been punished by the Shen family, the Ma family will not stop it, and she will not feel sorry for it.

Who made Qi Changxin take a fancy to her?

How could Ma have a good impression of the woman he liked.

On the contrary, Ma thought that if Zizhu died, it would be a good thing, at least it would break his mind permanently.

As for the reason why Chang Xin was haggard, Ma always thought that he was caused by the failure of Na Zizhu, and he didn't know that he was frightened.

However, it was said that after Zizhu was caned for fifty sticks, his flesh and blood were blurred and angry, and the Shen family had already sent someone to invite Zizhu's mother and brother to come, and prepared to give a deed of sale and let Zizhu go out of the house.

But Zizhu Niang Laozi and her brothers quit, saying that Zizhu was beaten like this, and they had to pay a sum of silver, otherwise they would go to sue the government.

Zizhu Niang sat on the ground crying and splashing.

Mother Yun asked them how much silver they wanted, and Brother Zizhu stretched out a few fingers and said that they would ask for fifty taels.

Fifty taels is not worth mentioning to the Shen family, but she doesn't plan to give this silver.

Mother Yun put away the deed of sale that she was about to hand over, and said to the three stout mothers-in-law beside her, "Carry the Zizhu girl back." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Zizhu Niang hurriedly pounced, pulled Zizhu's hand tightly, and asked Yun's mother with her eyes.

Mother Yun glanced at Zizhu and said with a smile, "Our lady originally took pity on Miss Zizhu, so she was let out of the house, since you don't know what to do, then forget it."

Madame has also changed her mind now, the Zizhu girl looks like a fairy, and when she recovers from her injuries in the future, she will definitely be able to get a good price if she sells it. ”

Zizhu's deed of sale is here with the Shen family, and it is up to her to deal with it, and others have no right to interfere, including Zizhu's family, as long as Zizhu is not killed for no reason.

Zizhu Niang Laozi and her brother saw that they couldn't threaten, although they were unwilling, but they were helpless, accepted Yun's mother's conditions, and pulled the unconscious Zizhu back.

Yun's mother returned the deed of sale in person, and gave a few taels of silver, which was regarded as the medicine needed to hire a doctor for Zizhu. At the same time, it was also made clear to them that from now on, Zizhu's life and death have nothing to do with the Anning Hou Mansion.

This matter can be regarded as having a result, Shen sighed slightly, and his heart was a little lighter.

It's almost autumn, and Li Qingyuan is going to end this year, and the Shen family is going to go to Li's mansion to give some auspicious gifts, hoping that Li Qingyuan can come out on top.

The idea is to raise your hands in agreement.

Although Xu Che has left Beijing, he is still a person according to Master Xu. He will definitely let Xu Che return to Beijing to participate in this autumn festival.

In his previous life, Xu Cheqiu won the first place, was the third place in the examination, and was appointed as the champion in the palace examination. Since then, Xu Che has always regretted that he was not the first in the examination, otherwise he would have won three yuan in a row.

Qi Miao hoped that Li Qingyuan could win this honor and trampled Xu Che under his feet.

The mother and daughter were discussing gifts with Yun's mother, and Qi Zhan came.

As soon as he came in, he said to Shen very seriously, "Mother, I have something to say to you. ”

"What's wrong?" Shen's heart suddenly went up.

It's rare to see her son talk to her so seriously. What's bothering with this?

Mother Yun wanted to avoid it, Qi Zhan waved her hand, "Mother Yun." It doesn't hurt for you to listen to that. ”

He sat down on the brocade in front of the Shen family, and said, "Mother, I don't want to study anymore." I want to go to the army. ”

"You...... What nonsense are you talking about? Shen was shocked. He slammed the cup next to him on the table, and was very dissatisfied with his son's words.

Qi Miao raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Qi Zhan slightly distracted.

My brother has lived a life of fine clothes and food since he was a child, how did he think of going to the army, isn't he afraid of hardships and hardships?

Was this a casual statement on his spur of the moment, or a decision that he made up his mind after thinking about it for a long time?

Alas, my brother had no academic achievements in his previous life, and he looked like him. He doesn't seem to have much talent for reading, if he can bear hardships and stand hard work. Going to the barracks isn't necessarily a bad thing.

But my mother will definitely not agree.

In fact, even if my mother can agree, my grandmother will not agree, and I can't pass the holy father's hurdle.

Facing his mother's sudden anger, Qi Zhan did not flinch or be afraid, he straightened his back and said seriously, "Mother, the child is not nonsense, nor is it a joke said on impulse. ”

After a slight pause, he continued, "These days I have been thinking about how to go in the future, now that I have a mother and a father, and an Anning Hou Mansion, I can live without worry, what will I do in the future?" Am I going to live on you all my life? I believe that the mother doesn't want the child to be so unproductive, right?

Since the last time you quarreled with your father, I hated myself for not being able to protect my mother and sister and let you be wronged.

Mother, what kind of character am I, I think you and my sister, as well as Mother Yun, you all know very well that I am cowardly, and after reading books for so long, I have not made any progress, and I find that I am less and less interested in reading. ”

"Mother, you only have one son, and I will support the third room alone in the future, but according to my current situation, I will definitely not be able to support it.

After careful consideration, I decided to join the army, I didn't have the luxury of hoping to make a contribution, I just wanted to hone myself, make myself strong, no longer weak, at least in the future to protect your mother and sister from being bullied. ”

Qi Miao stared at him with an unbelievable glint in her eyes.

Is this her brother?

Shibei three days, must be impressed, this is the most suitable for the elder brother.

The person who has changed the most in this life is not herself, but her brother.

In his previous life, he revolved around Bailian all day long, his studies were barren, and his six relatives were weak, not to mention her sister, even later he was very indifferent to his mother, and finally ended up miserable.

In this life, she just reminded him slightly, and he quickly recognized Bai Lian's ugly face, quickly alienated her, and gradually grew.

In this he is far superior to the Holy Father, who is far inferior to him.

Although his studies were still as bad as in his previous life, his mind had matured, and he had understood the responsibility on his shoulders and what he needed, which was more important than anything else.

If his personality is the same as that of the Holy Father, what is the use of having earth-shattering learning?

Mother Yun's eyes turned red after she was surprised.

Alas, the young master has really grown up and knows that he has to protect his wife and miss.

Shen was also shocked by his son's words, and stared at him for a long time without speaking.

At this moment, she had mixed feelings.

Annoyed that his son wants to give up his studies, and he is happy that his son is sensible, but he feels guilty, maybe he didn't quarrel with Qi Saburo last time, he wouldn't have such a thought, and soon she was distressed again, he really wanted to join the army, how hard it should be, she grew up in the army since she was a child, and she knows the hard work of being a soldier better than anyone else.

After a long time, Shen said, "Zhan'er, you have the intention of protecting your mother and sister, your mother is very relieved and happy, your mother's Zhan'er has grown up and is sensible."

But my mother still can't agree with your decision, you have to study hard, and in the future, you will be famous and honorable. ”

"Mother, why are you the same as everyone else?" Qi Zhan stood up anxiously and said, "Mother, I know you don't want me to suffer, but aren't my grandfathers and uncles all soldiers, and there are a few cousins, they are the same age as me, don't they have the intention of gaining fame, why can't I go to the army?" ”

Shen was choked.

Yes, others can not allow her son to join the army, she doesn't seem to have enough reasons, the Shen family has been in the military for generations.

She shook her head slightly, "Zhan'er, your surname is Qi, not Shen!"

"Mother, the child's mind has been decided, please fulfill it." Qi Zhan suddenly lifted his robe and knelt down in front of the Shen family.

But Shen just didn't agree.

Qi Zhan's stubborn temper came up again, and he knelt down.

But this stiffness can't solve the problem.

Qi Miao pursed her lips, looked at Mother Yun and winked.

Mother Yun nodded invisibly, and said to the Shen family, "Madam, the slave maid thinks that what the young master said is also somewhat reasonable, and he is also thinking about the future of our third room, not fooling around."

Don't be in a hurry to refuse the young master, and then think about it. ”

Shen's expression loosened slightly.

Then Mother Yun went to persuade Qi Zhan again, "Young Master, you should also be considerate of Madame's feelings, discuss and discuss, we must discuss things in trouble, but this is not the time to be vindictive."

Young master, you should also get up first, and then go back to the house to think about whether this determination is big enough, if you want to join the army, you must be prepared to endure hardships and hardships, that day is far from what you can imagine. ”

Qi Miao got up and helped Qi Zhan, "Brother, get up, I think Mother Yun is very reasonable, isn't this discussing with my mother, isn't it making my mother angry if you kneel like this." ”

She winked at him again.

Qi Zhan thought about it, too, kneeling hard like this would make her mother even more angry.

So, he kowtowed to Shen and apologized, "Mother, it's the child's mistake, please punish you." ”

"Alas, silly boy, isn't my mother angry with you......" Shen stepped forward to help him up personally, tears surging in his eyes.

All mothers in the world are the same, thinking about their children in everything, for fear that they will be wronged.

After Qi Miao accompanied Qi Zhan out of Begonia Garden, she asked him if he had really decided to join the army, and told him about the hard training of the sergeants.

Qi Zhan's mind was very resolute and did not loosen up in the slightest.

Seeing him like this, Qi Miao returned to Begonia Garden to persuade her mother.

"Mother, since my brother is no longer interested in his studies, it is no good to force him to study, it is better to let him go to the army to suffer some hardships, and if he can't persevere, he will come back and study hard." Qi Miao persuaded.

"Madam, Miss is very reasonable, if the young master can't persevere, he will come back to study diligently, if he really persists, he will definitely have some achievements in the future." Yun's mother also followed suit.

"That's right, mother, my brother is going to really persevere, and in the future, there will be a grandfather and a few uncles to take care of, are you still worried that he will suffer, it's much better than being in the Hou Mansion." Qi Miao said again.

Shen was finally persuaded to do so.

She didn't want to force her son to do something she didn't want to do, but she had to tell Ma Shi about it first, and she couldn't send her son away quietly.

When I went to Songhe Temple, Qi Changxin was also there. (To be continued.) )
