Qing Shu bowed weakly with a tired face, "The two county assistants, today is the day of my mother's burial, but I don't want to shamelessly come to make trouble for the evil one, not to mention disturbing the soul of my mother, and trying to charge the little girl with a crime of beating her and causing her to have a miscarriage, which is really hateful, hateful and vicious." People say that the deceased is great, and there is a big grievance, and the little woman has no heart to investigate it today, and she will not start to settle it until today. ”

As he spoke, there was mist in Qing Shu's eyes, "Now there are two county assistants who testify for the little woman, and there are fathers and villagers who are close to the left to testify for the little woman, and the little woman only stopped Wu Ye's evil deeds of disturbing the soul of the deceased, and did not hurt anyone, nor did it cause Wu Ye's miscarriage to happen." The little woman was very relieved to be able to prove her innocence. At this time, she was very weak, which moved those who heard it and made those who saw it pity her. People have long forgotten the scene when she kicked Wu Ye and rolled downhill.

Bai Xianfu and Yu Xianfu only responded vaguely, and complained again and again in their hearts.

Qing Shu said goodbye, "The little woman will let Mrs. Wu and her maid and servant woman go." There are two county assistants to testify, there are fathers and villagers to testify, and there are three doctors with high moral integrity to testify, forgive them and they dare not confuse right and wrong, reverse black and white, and start the vicious intention of framing the little woman again. ”

Some of the people who were pocketed in the pocket nodded seriously, some responded vaguely, and some loudly promised to help testify because they were in a hurry to go back to gossip.

The Wu Mansion and his party were able to get out, and the subordinates escorted the faceless Wu Ye clan into the carriage and left quickly with a disgraced face.

After such a toss, it was noon. Qingshu, Qingyang and Luo Xiaorong sat in the carriage that came to pick them up, and a group of people went home. The three doctors went back with the team of the ancient mansion, but Bai Xianfu and Yu Xianfu were not together. The two of them were afraid of the speed of the brocade-clothed guards on horseback, and said that they would wait for the officials to carry the sedan chair before leaving.

The brocade-clothed guards did not force it, and did not insist on bringing the people back the way they came, but rode on horses and followed the carriage of the ancient mansion.

Gu Qiang naturally wouldn't throw the two adults in front of the general's tomb like this. He instructed Ding Jiabao to stay with four people and protect the safety of the two adults before the officials arrived.

When Qingshu and the others returned to the house, there were already flowing water seats in the open space in front of the house. The ancient government office is naturally the white joy of red and white ceremonies. There is no need for the host's special hospitality, the people who come to the table sit down to eat and leave quickly, and even if there is a conversation, it is very quiet, there is no loud noise, no laughter, all out of respect for the deceased.

In addition, a table was set up in the mansion, and Qingyang entertained Bu Wu, the two grandsons of the Chen Governor's Mansion and Zhou Boyan and others. Bu Wu and the two grandsons of Governor Chen's mansion were about to leave after sitting at the table, and they wanted to go back to Jinyang City and no longer stay overnight.

Chen Qiaojiang didn't stay, because the first seven of the Gu Ye clan hadn't passed yet, and the people of the Da'an Dynasty were very particular about these. After the first seven years, the funeral can be officially completed, and Qingyang can sit back in the school to study. At that time, Chen Qiaojiang will come back again.

In the Da'an Dynasty, when the elders died, there were strict rules for children and grandchildren to keep filial piety. Men must observe filial piety for three years, and within three years, they must not marry, conduct scientific examinations, or indulge in alcohol. Comparatively speaking, the rules for women are relatively lenient. Women generally have to keep filial piety for three years, but if a woman reaches the age of marriage, if she has been filial piety for three years and will become an old girl, then the woman can keep filial piety for one year and can get married.

The flowing water mat of Bai Xi continued, and Qing Shu was not idle, still busy. She couldn't catch her breath until it was dark, the running water was over, and the tables, chairs and benches were retracted. Before that, there were no guests in the evening, and under the guise of accumulating blessings and virtues, she put out all the dishes and leftovers on the remaining tables, stacked the dishes and chopsticks together, and let the beggars take the dishes and chopsticks to eat.

The people of Kangxi Town were stunned when they saw this scene, one was the generosity of the ancient mansion to the beggars, and the other was that the number of beggars suddenly increased several times that day.

If a person is extremely tired, he really has no appetite at all, he doesn't feel hungry, and he doesn't want to eat a bite of any food. This is the case with Qingshu. She drank a glass of warm water and collapsed on the bed, feeling so sore that she didn't even have the strength to move a finger.

Xiaoyu brought the foot-washing water, Xiaojuan helped Qingshu up, and the two were busy washing Qingshu's feet.

When the socks were taken off, Qingshu unconsciously shrank his feet.

Xiaoyu exhaled softly, "Miss, your feet." ”

Qing Shu whispered weakly, "What are you talking about?" It's just a few blisters, no big deal. ”

Lily of the valley came in with bird's nest porridge, she put the porridge down, leaned over to take a look, and was busy looking for a needlework basket, "There are still two blood blisters that have not been broken, and they must be picked open." ”

Xiaojuan helped Qingshu and couldn't see it, but she was just as anxious, "Hurry up and wash Miss's feet, and then pick it after washing." "Miss, you bear with it a little, it doesn't hurt very much, you can only get better quickly if you pick it open."

Qingshu leaned on Xiaojuan, couldn't open her eyelids, and responded lightly.

Taking advantage of the fact that Xiaoyu was washing Qingshu's feet, Lily of the Valley brought bird's nest porridge over, scooped a spoonful and handed it to Qingshu's mouth, "Miss, this is the bird's nest porridge made by Mother Su herself, eat a little bit." If you don't eat, Su's mother will have to sleep badly all night. ”

Qing Shu didn't have the strength to say anything, closed his eyes, so he had to open his mouth, take the bird's nest porridge handed by Lily of the Valley into his mouth, and swallow it. She just opened her mouth, latched in, and swallowed mechanically.

Lily of the valley carefully fed her little by little from beginning to end, until the bowl was at the bottom, and then she took a handkerchief to wipe her mouth.

At this time, Xiaoyu had already washed Qingshu's feet and dried them. As soon as Lily of the Valley took the empty bowl and made way, Xiaojuan and Xiaoyu worked together to let Qingshu lie down in the quilt.

Lily of the valley took a needle, roasted it on the fire, and walked over, "Sister Xiaoyu, help me get the oil lamp." ”

Xiao Yu said yes and took the oil lamp.

Xiaojuan lifted the quilt covering Qingshu's feet, "Pick it lightly, don't wake up Miss." ”

Xiaoyu and Lily of the Valley were busy for a while, not only picking out a few blood blisters on the soles of Qingshu's feet, but also bringing ointment to apply them carefully, and wrapping Qingshu's feet with soft cotton cloth, and finally covering the quilt.

The three of them quickly packed up their things and exited the room, washed their feet, and went back to the earroom to climb into bed. Xiaojuan's feet are fine, Lily of the Valley's feet have a big blister, and Xiaoyu's has three small blisters. Xiaojuan picked a bubble for the two of them, ignored their refusal, and smeared a little more of the remaining ointment on them, then blew out the oil lamp and climbed into bed to lie down.

Lily of the valley turned over and asked Xiaojuan in a low voice, "I have already caught Wu Ye's family, and I can obviously take revenge, why did Miss let people go again?" ”

Xiaojuan yawned and said, "I don't know, let's sleep, I'm sleepy." ”

Xiao Yu said from the side, "Miss has her own plans, don't ask, it's important to do your part." Go to sleep! ”

In the dead of night, the third watch knocked, and the sleeping Qingshu turned over, sat up in a daze, and whispered Xiaojuan twice in a daze, but no one answered. She called the fish again, but there was no movement. She lifted the covers, got out of bed and put on her shoes, and felt a tingling in the soles of her feet as she stood up. This made her sober up a bit, and she slowly walked to the table in the dark, picked up the kettle and shook it, there was water.

She sat down in a chair, took a teacup and filled it with water, drinking little by little. The cold water entered her stomach, and her whole body was awake, and all the sleepy insects ran away. With a sigh of relief, he put down his teacup and slowly walked back to the bed, and went to bed and lay down.

I couldn't sleep, probably because she was too heavy on her mind and couldn't sleep anyway. It was very uncomfortable to toss and turn, she sat up helplessly, endured the tingling sensation of the soles of her feet, went to the window, opened the bolt, and the window was pushed open halfway.

When the cool breeze hit, she shrank for a moment, looking at the stars in the sky, and her heart was quiet.

"Beautiful, isn't it?" Pure and gentle, and with a slight sense of vicissitudes, the voice came neither high nor low.

Qing Shu was frightened, but fortunately he was standing against the window frame, otherwise he would definitely fall down. She stared at the figure of the uninvited guest on the courtyard wall in horror, patted her chest, and didn't care whether the other party could see it or not, and glanced hard.

The man in white whispered softly, "Scared? I'm sorry, I thought you were bold and reckless. ”

Qing Shu's eyes searched around, and since she was wearing a white one and sitting on her wall, there was no reason why she would not be wearing a black one.

"No need to look for it. He was shy and hid on the roof and refused to come down. As he spoke, the white-clothed man did not forget to point to a certain point on the roof.

There seemed to be the sound of grinding teeth on the roof.

Although he had been mentally prepared for their arrival, Qingshu never thought that they would come so soon. Black and white two guards! Sooner or later, it will come, it is useless to escape, it will not solve anything.

The man in white asked, "Is it decided?" How to deal with Wu Fu. ”

Qing Shu lay on the windowsill a little weakly, "I thought you had already started to act." Someone had already sent the news to her, and on the second day of her mother's death, someone shot through the door plaque of the Wu Mansion, and also presented the four shocking characters of "blood debt and blood repayment" written in blood.

The man in white jumped off the wall and approached Qingshu to stand still, "In the past, without the general's instructions, we never acted on our own. Now, without a successor to the general, without a new leader, we will not act on our own, we will only hibernate. "When they returned, they had been dormant for two and a half years, almost three years. They don't want to continue to hibernate, they can't wait for the young master to grow up, they urgently need the general's successor to appear, they need to go to the front of people, and they can't hide in the shadows anymore.

Qing Shu will not believe lightly, "So, what is the blood book of 'blood debt and blood payment'? ”

The man in white said, "It wasn't us who did it, it was someone else." ”

Qing Shu looked incredulous.

"You have seen this man, dressed as a peasant, in his early twenties, riding a donkey, and yesterday he went into the house to pay homage to his wife. This person's identity is unknown, and he can't find out his true identity after two days of following, I wonder if Miss denied this person? ”

Qing Shu pursed her lips and changed her words, "Who are you?" ”
