Chapter 147: People's hearts
When Mrs. Zheng said this, she finally began to look at people squarely, her right hand clenched her fist tightly, bent it on the desk, and looked at Cui Wanqing with burning eyes, her tone was full of disbelief! Anger all over the body! Wrath! Still angry!
Thinking about these questions in her heart, not for a day or two, but for a whole decade, ten years, at this point, she can finally say it freely, and the anger and grief in her heart are also burning.
Cui Wanqing has gone through countless storms, and at this time, she was also suppressed by the momentum burst out by Mrs. Zheng, and she didn't even dare to say a word of comfort, she couldn't disturb Mrs. Zheng, listen quietly, listen attentively, this is what Cui Wanqing can think of at this moment, the greatest respect for Mrs. Zheng!
From the beginning of Mrs. Zheng's story, to this moment, Cui Wanqing first confirmed that her mother did not say it in person before she died, and she wanted to give Xiangdie to her third uncle as an aunt, which was completely a big lie told by Mrs. Cao and Aunt Jiang!
As for why Aunt Jiang didn't wait for her mother's funeral, while looking for an excuse to go back to the Ming'an Hou Mansion, it was not difficult to guess at all, "This poisonous woman must have done something sorry for her mother, and she didn't have the courage to keep watch by her mother's corpse.
To say something unpleasant, if you really let Aunt Jiang keep the spirit for forty-nine days, with this city's government, guts, and the good things she has done, I am afraid that it will not take ten days, and she will have to go crazy in front of her mother's spirit on the spot!
Before today, although Cui Wanqing relied on the experience of her previous life, she was able to see from Aunt Jiang that her mother's death was greasy, but it was not until this moment that Mrs. Zheng's words were completely confirmed.
Mrs. Zheng was immersed in grief and inexplicable love, and couldn't extricate herself, she didn't care about looking at Cui Wanqing at all, or bothering to guess what Cui Wanqing was thinking in her heart?
Just took care of himself and continued to say: "In addition to the three of us, there are also cronies around us, few people know that Xiangdie fell in love with your third uncle early, and your mother doted on her, so she thought about giving her to her third brother as a concubine, and fulfilled her wishes, so as not to worry about Xiangdie's marriage in the future." β
"So after my wedding date was set, I personally talked to your third aunt and mother alone, but I didn't expect that Xiang Cheng, who has always been obedient to her, quarreled with your mother for the first time for Xiangdie's affairs, and resolutely refused to allow Xiangdie to enter the door.
"Tell me, Xiang Cheng rejected your mother so decisively, how could she suddenly be willing as soon as your mother died? And testify about former rivals and lie and deceive people? This will definitely not be discovered by any conscience, and the aunt is not a fool, so she naturally became suspicious in her heart, so she simply found the Cao family to question her. β
"Qing'er, do you know? Sometimes the truth of the truth is very cruel, really, really too cruel, Xiang Cheng was quibbling with me at the time, but the more she explained, the more suspicious I became, when I said that I was going to tell SΓΉ Cao Sange about this. β
"She was completely panicked, crying and kneeling down and begging me, saying that she and Xiangdie did have an agreement behind your mother's back, and Xiangdie helped her say good things in front of your mother, deliver news, and make her the main wife of Cao Sanye."
"Then in exchange, in the future, she promised to let Xiangdie enter the door as a concubine, and allowed her to give birth to a child, she said, this is all because she loves Cao Sange too much, so she will be so unscrupulous to achieve her goal, not to deliberately betray your mother with Xiangdie."
"She cried at the time, in my heart, Xiang Cheng has always been gentle and calm, I have never seen her such a wolf, and I was confused by her shameless pleading."
"After all, I used to be close friends with her, and the feelings I paid for her were not fake, but it is a pity that I was deceived by her coy attitude at that time, so I believed it so stupidly, she colluded with Xiangdie, just for the sake of Brother Cao."
When Cui Wanqing heard this, she couldn't help but sigh, "My aunt is too sincere, but she forgot the story of the farmer and the snake, and Mrs. Cao San is a gloomy person, I'm afraid that she pretended to be pitiful and begged for mercy at that time, and she just wanted to deal with you first, and change a little time to deal with it." β
"If my aunt had been ruthless at that time and went directly to find my third uncle, there would have been no more tragic incidents that followed, and how could the third lady Cao be at ease for so many years?"
Mrs. Zheng nodded again and again with a miserable face, and said approvingly to Cui Wanqing: "Good boy, in the end, you still see your innocence, I am still a fan of the authorities." β
"That day, after my aunt went home, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, think about it, when your mother went to tell Xiang Cheng about Xiangdie, Xiang Cheng had already married into the Ming'an Hou Mansion for more than half a year, she should have agreed to push the boat down the river, why not hesitate to fall out with your mother, or leave Xiangdie with your mother?"
When Mrs. Zheng said this, she suddenly looked up at Cui Wanqing and asked her softly: "Qing'er, tell your aunt, what is the most terrible thing in this world?" β
Although Cui Wanqing had already guessed the next thing by seven or eight points, she was still listening to Mrs. Zheng very carefully, which was suddenly asked by the new aunt, and she didn't think about it, so she said two words by the way: "People's hearts." β
Mrs. Zheng looked at Cui Wanqing and smiled, her smile was as bright as a spring flower, and the look in her eyes was full of relief, aggressive, and people didn't dare to look at it directly.
Cui Wanqing had a feeling that the whole house, at this stall, became brilliant because of her smile.
She thought about it carefully in her heart, this was the first time that Mrs. Zheng smiled from the bottom of her heart in front of her eyes, and the smile was so attractive, no wonder her mother could choose her as a friend, who could refuse a woman with such a shocking smile?
When the smile dissipated, Mrs. Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, people's hearts are separated by their bellies, who can see clearly?" I suspect Xiang Cheng and Jiang Yuejuan here, and they are bent on digging into the bottom of it, and they are also plotting against me. β
"It's a pity, I was young at the time, except for your mother, Xiang Cheng, even my fiancΓ©, I don't know much about it, and I don't even have anyone around to discuss, when I was about to take Qiaoyue to the south of the city to Vase Street, to find the Wen Po surnamed Li for verification, the nightmare quietly came."
"Then Li Wenpo led me into their door, and when I went in, I saw a young unmarried lady sitting in the main house of her house, dressed in a dazzling manner, which was in contrast to this humble realm."
"I know this aunt, she is your current mother Zhou, I was wondering why she was here, but Zhou smiled and asked me, 'Did yesterday's chicken soup taste okay?' It's ridiculous that I didn't know until this moment that someone had already planted a spy in my family. β
"Zhou's victory is in my hands, but I don't need to ask, so I sneered and said, I added a poison called 'Dream' to the chicken soup I used yesterday, if I am obedient and no longer care about the Cao family's Cui family's affairs, then someone will come to give me the antidote every month, if I am still obsessed, then not only will I die, but even my old father will suffer together."
"God knows, the chicken soup that day, because I didn't want to use it, but I rewarded Qiaoyue, and it caused Qiaoyue to suffer for me."
Qiaoyue saw that her master was sad and unbearable, and tears dripped uncontrollably on her clothes, and couldn't help but persuade: "Madam, don't be sad for Qiaoyue, this is all fate, and the maid is still glad that it was the maid who used the chicken soup at that time, not you, if it wasn't for the maid's life being pinched in their hands, with your personality, I am afraid that you will have to give up your life at that time, and you will also make a fish die and the net will be broken." β
Mrs. Zheng gently wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and said with a reluctant smile: "That's true, if they didn't pinch me with you and our old man, I would rather die than let them succeed, but this can be regarded as a providence in the dark, and God deliberately arranged it like this, I'm afraid that it was to let Qing'er personally avenge her mother." β
Cui Wanqing looked at this pair of loyal and courageous masters and servants, looking at each other and crying, so not desolate, her heart throbbed for a while, and she couldn't help but secretly think: "Why are the people I saw in my previous life all indifferent and ruthless people, this relived life, and all the people I met were affectionate and righteous?" What is the truth behind this? β
Mrs. Zheng accompanied Qiao Yue to shed tears, and vented her pain and grievances with tears, and then gradually calmed down, and then looked at Cui Wanqing and said: "Auntie, I can say for sure that there must have been a ghost in the death of your mother back then." β
"It's a pity that I'm being watched here, and I have to bother to cooperate with Qiaoyue to make a scene, hide from their eyes, where can I do anything else for a while? Before I could think of a way, Li Wenpo left the capital with her family after your mother was buried, but Zhu Wenpo suffered retribution and suffered a stroke. β
"As for the Cui family, I don't even dare to think about it, I'm afraid that if I don't even enter the gate, the old father and Qiaoyue here will suffer, so if my aunt wants to find Caidie and Mengdie to ask about it, it has become impossible."
"I had to think of a way, and begged your Uncle Zheng around the corner, so that he could keep an eye on Imperial Doctor Chen's family, and a year later, the Zhou family married into your family with the holy decree, and when she entered the door, I became more and more passive here."
"The Zhou family is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the purpose is very clear, it didn't take long to rely on the royal power to control the Cui family's West Mansion, and you should know everything in the future, otherwise you wouldn't let Fang's mother go around."
Cui Wanqing asked in surprise, "How do you know that your niece asked Fang's mother to inquire about the news?" βR1152
