Chapter 089: Great Calamity
Xie Shuning felt that Yuan Niang was bold, and the old lady of the long house who was sick and lying on the kang even more so.
She is close to her sixtieth birthday, but she is still worried about the juniors below her every day. Yuan Niang is especially. is the eldest granddaughter, but she is also happy. But Yuan Niang was not taught well by the eldest wife Wang, and her temperament was cowardly and useless, and she seemed to be extremely unpleasant.
It's easy to grow to a good time, but the marriage has not been smooth.
The old lady of the long room turned her back and coughed heavily, only to feel that her chest was suffocated, her head was dizzy, and she didn't want to move. The old lady in the long house only knows how to read and play chess, recite poems against each other, and don't care about the trivial matters at home and the marriage of his children and grandchildren. The old lady in the long room knew that she could never count on the old man.
Just as he was thinking, there was a sound of lightened footsteps behind him.
She was tired and didn't look back.
Then the eldest lady's crying voice rang out, "Mother, you have to make an idea about this matter." ”
So far, let her have an idea?
The old lady of the long room was angry, coughed and turned her head to look at her, and said angrily: "Who let you in, don't get out quickly!" ”
A good granddaughter, she was taught to look like that when she saw it, wasn't it all the fault of the eldest lady? The more the old lady of the long room looked at her, the more angry she felt, and she couldn't wait to get off the kang immediately, grab the crutches on the side and knock her a few times to relieve her anger.
However, she was sick, and she felt as if she was going to be exhausted even when she scolded, where could she still scold her eldest daughter-in-law.
"Mother, you save your daughter-in-law, is there really no way for your daughter-in-law to do this......" The eldest lady knelt down with a "plop" and cried so much that her makeup was spent.
The old lady of the long room gasped, and her voice gradually lowered: "You stupid thing." Why don't you go and ask who that scumbag is, and kneel down in front of me to see something. ”
The eldest lady cried even harder.
She knew it all along. His daughter was a scourge, and she should have been drowned when she was born. It's good now. Such a catastrophe has occurred. She has always been a sleek person, but this time, she was completely indecisive. She came to ask the old lady of the long house for an idea, but the old lady was already angry and sick, and she didn't want to come forward at all.
But for now, this matter cannot be delayed.
She blamed the old lady of the long room for coming, but she was sick, so she had to ask someone to invite the sixth brother and his wife from the third room, and almost leaked the matter. She's so good-looking. At the moment, I just want to keep things secret.
After crying for a while, seeing that the old lady in the long room turned her back and closed her eyes as if she was silent, she couldn't help but widen her eyes and hurriedly called her: "Mother, what's wrong with you, mother?" ”
But the old woman lying on the kang turned pale, her teeth were clenched, and she was so angry that she was out a lot.
The eldest lady was shocked, got up from the ground in a panic, and shouted for someone to come in.
But Doctor Hang is outside. There is only one doctor in the house who is invited from outside, and his medical skills are not as good as that of Doctor Hang, who only knows how to prick needles and prescribe medicine. If you ask him if he can be cured and when he will get better. I didn't know what to ask, and I couldn't say anything clear for a long time.
Uncle Xie glared at the eldest lady with displeasure, thinking that she was troublesome. It made the old lady angry again.
The old lady of the long room waved his hand and drove everyone down. Leaving aside the words again, without his permission and the old lady's permission. No one is allowed to enter the plum blossom dock.
"Father......" Uncle Xie was stunned.
But the old lady made up her mind, and the sons said that it was useless, so they had to let him go.
As soon as she got out of the door of Meihuawu, the eldest lady gritted her teeth and scolded: "That little cheap. Man, you're mad at me! ”
Uncle Xie listened to her call her daughter a little cheap. People, Deng Shi shook his face to show her, and snorted coldly: "You taught it well!" ”
The couple had a lot of trouble.
The daughter did something embarrassing, and the eldest lady was even more at a loss, saying that she couldn't thank Uncle Xie, so she wiped her tears in discouragement.
The front foot only left, and the second master Xie sent someone to find Uncle Xie on the back foot. When they met, they asked, what happened to make the old lady angry like that?
Uncle Xie didn't have the face to say, and he was about to leave after a few prevarications.
Second Master Xie didn't ask any more questions, but after Uncle Xie left, he pondered with a gloomy face.
In a huge house, once something happens, rumors are always inevitable. It was just in time for the New Year's Festival, and the people in the house gathered more complete than usual. As a result, there are more gossips. It is said that the old lady was angry with the eldest lady, because the eldest lady withheld the things that were sacrificed to the ancestors; Another said that he was angry with the old man, and said that the old man was making a fuss about accepting the big girl next to the old lady, and she had no face and no skin; It is also said that it is because of the eldest lady Xie Yunruo.
There are different opinions, but no one knows the truth.
Xie Shuning was suspicious, and deliberately asked someone to take a jade plate with clouds carved on it to ask to see Yuan Niang, so she said that she had a new jade plate, and wanted to match the name of the lobby sister, so she asked someone to send it to her.
She likes to give small things to her cousins, so no one will find it strange to say this.
This was a good excuse to see Yuan Niang, but this time, the jade plate was sent out, but no one saw Yuan Niang's face.
The five points of doubt in her heart became seven or eight points.
In her previous life, she stayed in the long room much more than she stayed in the third room, so she was more familiar with several uncles and aunts in the long room. The eldest aunt looks kind, but she is never a good person. The lobby sister is under her hands, and she has always been inferior to a concubine. For the sake of a virtuous reputation, the eldest aunt will naturally not treat her children harshly, but she can ignore her own children to such an extent.
Xie Shuning never figured this out.
Tiger poison does not eat children, and the smiling tiger of the eldest lady is clearly more poisonous than the tiger.
She was a little apprehensive.
But I didn't know that the eldest lady was rare and calm this time.
The eldest lady entered Yuan Niang's room, sat down in front of her bed, stretched out her hand to wrap the scattered hair on her sideburns behind her ears, smiled kindly, and said in an almost coaxing tone: "Mother knows that Mother has always treated you badly, but I am afraid that you are also a strange mother in your heart." It's just this time, Sister Yun, you tell your mother honestly, what is going on? It's okay to say it, let's take the medicine, and in a few days my mother will help you talk about a family business, who can know? ”
Yuan Niang was silent.
The eldest lady looked at her eyes and narrowed, and said: "Mother knows that you are a good child, you must have been harmed by you, don't be afraid, tell my mother, my mother will make that life worse than death." ”
When the words fell, Yuan Niang raised her head in panic, glanced at her quickly, and lowered her head again.
How shrewd the eldest lady was, she immediately noticed that there was something wrong with it, and asked, "Are you willing to do it yourself?" ”
Yuan Niang still pursed her lips tightly and did not speak.
"Say, 'Who is that man?' The eldest lady only felt that the corners of her forehead were beating straight.
The daughter who was raised in the boudoir, but she was secretly married to the same person under her own nose, and she was too late for the old lady to find out, how could she not be angry? Seeing that she had been patiently talking for a long time, Yuan Niang still seemed to have heard a word at all, she was furious, raised her hand and slapped it, lowered her voice and scolded: "Little thing, your wings are stiff, and now you still think this thing is long-faced?" ”
But no matter what she scolded, Yuan Niang still didn't react.
The eldest lady slammed the door angrily and stood under the porch, her heart tangled in a mess of twine.
The rumors in the house became louder and louder, and the eldest lady was in a bad mood, and when she heard a sneer in her ears, she made a few ordinary maids come out, and there happened to be the maid Xie Shuning saw last time. When a few people arrived in front of the eldest lady, they naturally didn't dare to say anything.
But the eldest lady didn't care whether they said it or not, and what they said.
She pulled these out, just to make an example of the chickens and monkeys, and asked the people under her head to see what kind of disaster could be caused by touching the two mouths up and down.
So she commanded with a blank face to go down and rebuke them with thirty rods.
They were all young girls, and when they heard that they were going to take thirty hits, they all turned white at the moment.
The body is weaker, but can't you fold it on it?
Shocked, they all begged desperately for mercy. However, the eldest lady was hard-hearted, and Ben was in a bad mood, and when she heard the crying voice, she only felt more and more unhappy, so she quickly asked people to drag it down and beat her. The old lady in the partial life house was sick again, and it was not good for these people to disturb the old lady's recuperation, so they asked someone to gag her with a coarse cloth.
After beating the board, she said a few words with a cold face, and next time she dared to put the beak master at will, or kill them, and then locked them in the firewood room.
Who knows, that night, the maid who received Xie Shuning's silver that day launched a high fever, and the next day before the sky was bright, she lost her breath.
That's a bad deal!
The eldest lady cursed a few words, and then let the body be wrapped and pulled out of the city to be buried. Before the fifteenth year came out, the family saw blood and touched the mold, and then I was afraid that I would be unlucky for a whole year.
I'm afraid that's exactly the case, the old lady in the long room has no signs of getting better at all.
The bitter medicine was poured bowl after bowl, but there was no improvement.
Yuan Niang's affairs are also like stagnant water, and there are no ripples in the circle.
The eldest lady didn't care about Yuan Niang in the past, and even the maid and woman who took Yuan Niang around her didn't care about her eldest lady, and a group of people couldn't even tell where Yuan Niang was doing on weekdays, so angry that the eldest lady was angry.
Ask again, Yuan Niang's personal maid doesn't even know when Yuan Niang's menstrual affairs will come and when they will go.
At this moment, the eldest lady was really laughed at.
She didn't think it was inappropriate for her to be a mother, but she felt that Yuan Niang looked at a delicate and weak and timid person, but in fact, her heart in her stomach was very dark.
Thinking about it, her heart became more and more cold and hard.
She went to see Yuan Niang with a wooden face, and asked carefully three times if she really didn't say it.
Yuan Niang naturally remained silent.
She sneered: "It's okay, it's the same whether you say it or not, after all, I didn't give birth to your daughter." (To be continued......)
