Chapter 360: Jumping into the Well (1)
Chapter 300 Chapter V, I'm still quite happy to count like this, cover my face and run-
Sun only knew about these things, but he still knew about other things.
In the third room, the Zhou family had already chosen a wedding date, and they had discussed it with the Ji family, and they married Yu Cong on August 22. Because of this, the Ji family, who originally wanted to come to Yongzhou to pay New Year's greetings, also canceled the plan, although the two families are in-laws, but Yu Cong is going to get on the sedan chair for more than half a year, and it is not appropriate to go to her mother-in-law's house at this time.
Zhen Xuan glanced at the Western clock, seeing that the time was not early, and she did not leave Sun's family, so she asked Bang Qin to send her out.
In the evening, I went to Tingfeng Yuan for dinner, and listened to the discussion between the Zheng family and Mrs. Zheng, the ancestor has been in good health recently, and the family banquet on February 15 will be cancelled as usual.
Zhen Xuan took a sip of tea, after the ancestor was sick, the first and fifteenth rooms of the new year were not left behind, and only the family banquet in the evening was canceled.
The last time the family sat down to eat was a reunion dinner on Chinese New Year's Eve.
Since the spirit is better these days, the family is still more lively together, but the eldest lord and Xia Huanqing went to Yunzhou, and there are fewer people at the table.
Mrs. Zheng took the tea cup and skimmed the tea foam, but did not speak for a while.
Zheng didn't know why, and he didn't dare to urge, so he waited quietly.
Zhen Xuan glanced at it, then turned her head to look at Xia Yiqing, and saw that his eyes were heavy, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.
The most feared thing is to return to the light.
Old Mrs. Zheng let out a long sigh: "Ming'er will ask Mother Gui a question?" Look at what the ancestor means, according to the ancestor's thoughts. ”
Zheng should be down.
On the second day, I went to Changshengju to ask, but the ancestor didn't think much about it. Naturally, you have to be with your family.
Zheng sees this. I don't persuade much. Prepare as usual.
February is cold, and the sky is full moon, and it looks even colder.
When it was just a little dark, Zhen Xuan faintly heard footsteps outside.
She opened her eyes, woke up slightly, and reached out to touch the pocket watch on Xia Yiqing's chest and glanced at the hour.
It's not too early or too late, when the maids and women get up, if they want to fall asleep, they can squint for a while.
It's just that I don't know what's going on today, and there's a lot of movement outside. As if he couldn't suppress his voice, the sound of Suosuo's voice came in.
Not only did Zhen Xuan lose her sleep, but even Xia Yiqing was woken up.
Even so, she didn't sleep, Xia Yiqing held Zhen Xuan's hand and gently pecked and kissed for a while, and then opened the curtain and asked the maids to come in and serve.
I screamed twice, and waited for a while, only to see the painting come in in a hurry.
Zhen Xuan was stunned, she remembered that last night's vigil was chess.
When it was time to freshen up, Zhen Xuan didn't see the chess and piano. In the house, Zhihua and Huaixiang were busy, and from time to time there were some small voices floating in the courtyard. Words such as "in the well" and "scoop up" are blurred.
Zhen Xuan's heart was filled with some indescribable uncomfortable feelings, and she couldn't help but raise her eyes to look at Xia Yiqing.
Xia Yiqing had just changed his clothes, as if he had a good heart, and he also turned his head to look at Zhen Xuan, his eyes met in the air, and his thin lips hooked.
Zhen Xuan didn't move away, didn't move away, didn't hesitate for a while.
Xia Yiqing's eyes were stained with a smile, knowing that she was thin-faced, she didn't tease her in front of the maid, but only helped Zhen Xuan to sit down in the east room, and asked Zhihua, "What's wrong?" ”
The holding screen froze, and he looked out hesitantly, thinking that these things can't be hidden sooner or later, so it's better for her to "sue", pinching the corners of her clothes and saying ruthlessly: "It's the matter in the front yard, and the slave only heard the bits and pieces." It seems that a maid next to the fourth master jumped into the well last night, and in the morning, a mother-in-law went to the well to fetch water and found it, and just fished it up. ”
As soon as he said this, not only Zhen Xuan was startled, but the smile on Xia Yiqing's face was gone.
The rules of the Xia family, unmarried men live in the front yard, Xia Jingqing has lived alone in the front yard since he was ten years old, and Xia Keqing is the same. The two of them are surrounded by two small servants and two maids to take care of their daily life, but this is so good, why is there a jumping well next to Xia Jingqing.
Xia Yiqing instructed Zhihua to draw a few words, and asked Yun Zai to figure things out, so he went to Tingfeng Yuan with Zhen Xuan first.
Listening to the wind garden, the news has also been received.
Mrs. Zheng sat expressionlessly on the Luohan bed, Xia Huqing sat with her, the atmosphere in the room was depressing, she was really a little uncomfortable, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw the two of them coming.
Zheng was not there, probably busy dealing with the maid's affairs.
On weekdays, at this time, it was time for Mrs. Zheng to have breakfast, and Zhen Xuan asked tentatively: "Grandmother, I'll let them set the table." ”
Old Madam Zheng was just about to shake her head, but when she saw Zhen Xuan's bulging abdomen, she said, "Have you used it?" ”
Xia Huqing understood that no matter how big the matter was, Mrs. Zheng couldn't be hungry, and when she saw Zhen Xuan shaking her head, she hurriedly followed suit: "Grandmother, I haven't used it yet." ”
Seeing this, Mrs. Zheng nodded and said, "In that case, let's set the meal." Use some of them all in one piece. ”
Seeing that Mrs. Zheng was relieved, Yuzhu hurriedly went down to make arrangements, and after a while, the dishes and chopsticks were placed on the table, and the porridge was served and the side dishes were ordered.
I didn't figure out the matter, and it was useless to keep it in my heart, and after Mrs. Zheng's initial anger passed, she also had some appetite and ate breakfast according to the amount in the past.
Yuzhu was serving tea to Mrs. Zheng to rinse her mouth, and Xia Jingqing came in with a sad face.
Seeing that everyone was staring at him, Xia Jingqing raised his hand and touched his nose, and he didn't let people urge, so he explained first: "It was Su Xin who jumped down, in fact, I don't know why she jumped, it seems that she was fine yesterday, I asked Su Qin, and she didn't know." ”
Su Xin and Su Qin were both selected by the Zheng family to send to Xia Jingqing a few years ago, and what they value is honesty and diligence.
Old Mrs. Zheng glanced at Xia Jingqing: "What about your mother?" ”
Xia Jingqing lowered her head and said, "In front, Su Xin picked it up, and my mother asked me to come over first." ”
Zhen Xuan secretly looked at Xia Jingqing, his mood was low, and the whole person was stunned, obviously the people around him suddenly committed suicide and gave him a big blow. But he didn't know why, racking his brains to think, and he seemed to have no energy.
After waiting for another quarter of an hour, Zheng came back with a green face, followed by a nervous Aunt Wen.
As soon as he entered the house, Zheng suppressed his anger and asked Mrs. Zheng to say goodbye, and then glared at Xia Jingqing viciously.
Xia Jingqing was taken aback by her, shrunk her neck, and drank tea in a muffled voice without speaking.
Aunt Wen also looked at Xia Jingqing dissatisfied, she was worried in her heart, she couldn't ask Xia Jingqing carefully, but Mrs. Zheng and the Zheng family were both in the house, and it was not her turn to speak, so she could only stand aside, looking Xia Jingqing up and down with a pair of crystal eyes, wanting to see some clues.
When he saw this posture, he knew that things were not simple, so he quickly led all the maids and women in the house out and closed the door.
Zheng originally wanted Xia Huqing to go out, but then he thought that the child was also engaged and would get married in a few days, so she didn't mention it when she heard about this ugly thing in the house, so she didn't mention it.
When the doors and windows in the house were closed, Zheng stared at Xia Jingqing and asked, "Are you dizzy?" Do you know why Su Xin jumped into the well? ”
Xia Jingqing really didn't know, and shook her head blankly.
"Whose is the one in her belly?" Zheng suppressed his voice and gritted his teeth more and more, "You touched her?" ”
Zheng's voice was trembling, she was the most unaccustomed to this kind of thing, and she was extra careful to guard against it. The two sons, no matter whether they are out or behind, the people around her are all chosen by her, and what she is most afraid of is to make a scene.
I just asked someone to check Su Xin's body, who knew that she was given such a conclusion, if it wasn't for the careful maid on the side, Zheng almost stumbled and fell to the ground.
She knows that when a man reaches this age, it is not strange that he wants to try it, if he meets a maid who does not want to climb into bed shamelessly, what happens in the front yard, Zheng is beyond the reach of the whip in the backyard; Even if the maid is honest, the master is forced to be ruthless, how can they resist?
Therefore, she was careful and careful in choosing people, and she had to keep an eye on her two sons, and she also let the eldest man train her face a few times.
After all, the rules of the Xia family are here, and the concubine must not be born in front of the concubine.
The ancestor was favored like Du Yueniang, and he also drank fetal pills, not to mention a little girl.
Rather than having an accident and being a wicked person with blood on his hands, it is better to put more thought into it in the first place.
Su Xin and Su Qin, Zheng is relieved, who knows that it is Su Xin who reassures her, this kind of thing happened.
And Xia Jingqing, a child, although it didn't come out of her belly, but after being disciplined by her side for so many years, Zheng knows his character.
is bold and naughty, and he is not as cautious and steady as Xia Yiqing, but he is not a brainless person.
If you want Zheng to say it herself, she doesn't believe that Xia Jingqing will be so confused. But Su Xin is the maid next to Xia Jingqing after all, which one will reach out to his house?
As soon as Zheng's words came out, everyone in the room reacted differently, and the most surprised was Xia Jingqing, who almost jumped up: "What? Mother, do you mean she's pregnant? ”
Xia Jingqing's face was red and white, and when he caught a glimpse of Xia Yiqing's eyes looking at him, his eyes were deep and deep, faintly revealing some smell of mountain rain coming, his back was cold, and he hurriedly waved his hand: "It's definitely not me!" ”
Compared with Mrs. Zheng and the Zheng family, Xia Jingqing was more afraid of Xia Yiqing, and couldn't help shaking her head and denying: "Brother, it's really not." I haven't touched her, I swear. ”
Xia Yiqing was still unclear, Xia Jingqing was even more anxious, walked around the house quickly, stomped his feet, blushed, and said in a general manner: "I didn't bluff you, I'm just a chick, don't talk about Su Xin, I haven't touched a woman, and the one I have seen the most is the woman who tied me up on the Zhuangzi last time to jump the immortals, and there is no more."
Take another 10,000 steps back and say, if I really want to move the maid, I will definitely let her drink the soup of avoiding children, what are the rules of our family, how can I come out with a concubine without even carrying my daughter-in-law into the door? It doesn't make sense. I'm not a roundabout, Su Xin doesn't say anything else, after serving me for so many years, am I going to force her to death? (To be continued......)
