Chapter 235: Something Wrong
Song Qinglian was not afraid that it was fake.
It is said that Zhao Canniang's kung fu is good, if Zhao Canniang starts to do it, it will be her and her mother who will suffer.
Now that her mother has been beaten by the board, she can only lie on the ground, and now she is the only one left.
Zhao Canniang glanced at Aunt Xia on the ground coldly, smiled slightly, and the corners of her mouth were a little mocking.
I only saw Aunt Xia on the ground just now, but now I found that Aunt Xia was lying on the ground because she was beaten by the board, but her upper body was twisted.
"Seeing that your mother still doesn't seem to have a long lesson after being beaten by the board, can you shrimp soldiers and crabs come to make trouble at any time in my family?"
After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Song Qinglian closely: "Give you a chance to leave me immediately, as for your father, he deserves it, I bypassed your father today, why didn't your father think about bypassing me last time." ”
Zhao Canniang spoke very coldly, beating Chen Zhongqiu like that, although they were all skin injuries, they looked very hideous.
And those dart masters don't have any mercy from their subordinates.
Song Qinglian bit her lip tightly, and then said word by word: "My father didn't want to kill Brother Zhongqiu's life, they just wanted silver, my brother caused trouble, our family's dart game has been handed over to others, if we don't pay back the silver in the short term, we will be on the streets, Zhao Canniang, I don't want to beg you, but I really can't help me now, can you help us for the sake of our former relatives." ”
The corners of Zhao Canniang's mouth mockingly hooked: "Why can't it be hard and soft, and now it's still singing bitter dramas?" ”
Zhao Canniang didn't believe what Song Qinglian said in her heart.
"What I said is true, why don't you believe me?" Song Qinglian was a little angry.
Zhao Canniang snorted coldly: "Because you are not worth believing." ”
Song Qinglian continued: "What I said is really true. You have to believe me, our family is really ...... It's already the end of the road. Otherwise, my dad wouldn't have come up with such a solution, knowing that he might go to jail but still ....... ”
Zhao Canniang sneered: "Enough is enough for Song Qinglian." To be honest, if your family really thinks that we are relatives, they will come and borrow money openly, maybe we will really lend it to you, you choose to use this method, it proves that you no longer regard us as relatives, naturally you can do this, why should we be polite to you? And what you said, I want to ask you, is it true that your family will not have any silver? You are now the fourth lady of the Ke family. How rich the Ke family is, let's not talk about this! You're embarrassed to be called poor here. ”
Zhao Canniang's tone was full of disgust, indeed in Zhao Canniang's opinion, the Ke family has a lot of money, and Song Qinglian is still the fourth lady even if she is poor, and it is impossible to have no silver on hand.
It's okay not to talk about this matter, as soon as she said this, Song Qinglian's face changed, and then she gritted her teeth and smiled bitterly.
"Fourth lady, I used to look at the Ke family's brilliance. Thinking that even if the head of the family is persuaded by the eldest brother, we can at least get a little benefit, and even a little benefit is enough for us to use the Huwei Dart Bureau, but ...... That's not the case at all. ”
Song Qinglian said this. There was a pause, and his face became more and more bitter and regretful.
"To put it bluntly, the fourth son of the Ke family is just a puppet, a puppet that makes everyone think that Ke Tianlin is a good brother. Ke Sigongzi is kept at home every day, not to mention silver. Even if it is usually used by himself, it must be agreed by Ke Tianlin. I couldn't stand it after staying at Ke's house for a few days, so I returned to my parents' house. ”
Zhao Canniang's face still didn't believe it: "Fourth Prince Ke allowed you to go?" Is the Ke family a place where you can go and go when you want? ”
Song Qinglian shook her head helplessly: "What if you don't let me go there?" I have to eat and drink there every day, I have to spend silver, and if I don't let me go, I will sell all the things in the courtyard of the fourth son of the Ke family, maybe because I am a loser, and if there is one less person, there will be less silver, so I naturally want to let me go, Xianggong felt guilty about me, so he ....... ”
Zhao Canniang stretched out her hand to let Song Qinglian stop: "Don't say it, do you know what your biggest loophole is?" Since you said that Ke Tianlin can do such a thing, how can you be allowed to take out the things in Ke Sigongzi's yard and sell them? Obviously, you are lying, I don't care what your purpose is, I just want to tell you, if you want us to go to the government to talk to your father, it is absolutely impossible. ”
After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, Song Qinglian cried: "Why are you so ruthless, do you want to see our family ruined so much." ”
"Don't say that, I think of your father kidnapping Zhongqiu, I only know that if I die of mercy, we are all selfish, I admit that I can't be selfless, and I'm not a kind-hearted person, so don't think that there can be a breakthrough in me, it was we who were kind to the Ke family back then, and we didn't beat the water dogs, and now we will be so embarrassed."
After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she said to the family behind her: "Pull it out!" ”
The family immediately stepped forward.
Mrs. Chen in the room has actually been listening carefully to the movement outside, and the conversation between Song Qinglian and Zhao Canniang is also very clear, sighing, Mrs. Chen is still soft-hearted after all.
Mrs. Chen walked out of the door, stood by the cornice and said to Zhao Canniang, "Canniang, wait a while." ”
Zhao Canniang heard that it was Mrs. Chen's voice and walked up: "What's the matter with my mother?" ”
Mrs. Chen then said, "Here are two hundred taels of silver, you can give them them!" Now that the weather is hot, it's better to see a doctor in the injured area, so that it won't be serious by then. ”
Zhao Canniang nodded, walked in front of Aunt Xia and stuffed the two hundred taels of silver tickets into Aunt Xia's hand.
Aunt Xia was briefly surprised.
But then he said to Mrs. Chen, "Please help us!" Without Song Huai, how can we live our three lives! Now the dart game looks like it's almost gone, and we ....... ”
Mrs. Chen did not relent: "I have helped you who should have helped, Canniang is right, now that we have spared you, why didn't you think about bypassing us in the first place?" If Canniang hadn't arrived in time, I want to say, would you really have left Zhongqiu's life? There is also the matter of our family's title deed, only you know, you can do something to assassinate your brother regardless of the affection of your brother and sister, don't come to us today to ask us to forgive you. We are not stupid. ”
After Mrs. Chen finished speaking, she turned around and entered the house directly, and Zhao Canniang felt that Mrs. Chen had done a good job this time.
Stretched out his hand and waved at the housekeeper. And they were escorted out.
As soon as she was disturbed by this matter, Zhao Canniang immediately felt bad. When I walked into the house, I saw that Master Chen was also in the house.
Zhao Canniang immediately understood that the two hundred taels of silver were given by Master Chen!
"Daddy."
Zhao Canniang asked for peace, and Mrs. Chen said, "Sit down and talk, I'm tired of standing outside for so long." ”
Zhao Canniang sat down and then looked at the two: "Dad and Mom have nothing to do!" ”
Zhao Canniang was worried that Aunt Xia and the two would enter the house and disturb the two.
Master Chen sighed deeply at this time, and his tone was full of helplessness: "You have handled Canniang's affairs very well today, and you just can't be merciful to the enemy, I have been in business for so many years, and I can be regarded as seeing it through." This time things are hard for you, this family will depend on you in the future, your mother and I are old, and sometimes it is inevitable to be confused when you are old. ”
Zhao Canniang understood what Master Chen meant, and Master Chen was actually afraid that he would be kind enough to help Aunt Xia when the time came!
Zhao Canniang nodded: "My daughter-in-law understands what to do, there have been too many things happening at home recently, have my father and mother ever thought about going out for a walk?" I do know of a place with beautiful mountains and waters, and it's quiet. ”
Zhao Canniang proposed.
Mrs. Chen and Master Chen looked at each other and nodded: "We also have this plan, you can help arrange it." We packed up and set off. ”
Mr. Chen didn't want to stay at home for a long time, and Mrs. Chen was also worried that Aunt Xia would continue to come to the door to entangle.
Zhao Canniang stepped back.
Inside the house, Mrs. Chen and Mr. Chen both saw helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Canniang is a good one, and I'm relieved to have her by Mid-Autumn by my side. It's Aunt Xia's matter, aren't you really going to help? "Mrs. Chen knows her father-in-law, and she knows everything in her heart for decades.
Master Chen sighed helplessly: "It's not that I don't want to help." It's that there's nothing you can do, and you know that now the government has closed the case. This matter is Song Huai's deserved, although he is related. But it's precisely because of the kinship that it's even more hateful, don't think about it, I've already figured out what to do about this matter, and now it's like this, and the affection between brothers and sisters is long gone. ”
Master Chen sighed, recalling in his mind what Aunt Xia looked like when she was a child, what a well-behaved sister she was at that time, and now she has become like this.
touched his bottom line, so no matter how miserable it was, it would not arouse Master Chen's sympathy.
When Zhao Canniang returned to her yard, she gave instructions to a more trustworthy little servant.
The child is sleeping soundly.
That little and lovely appearance is the best medicine for Zhao Canniang's spirit, as long as she sees Le'er's obedient appearance, Zhao Canniang feels that no matter how much she does, it is worth it.
"Blue Butterfly, you seem to be fifteen years old!"
Zhao Canniang sat on the soft couch with the child in her arms and asked softly.
Blue Butterfly nodded: "The slave turned fifteen years old a year ago, has the lady forgotten that you also allowed me a two-day vacation to let me go home and have a look!" ”
Blue Butterfly is very grateful to Zhao Canniang.
Lan Die never thought about climbing the bed, the more she stayed by Zhao Canniang's side, the more she didn't want to destroy the beauty that Chen Zhongqiu and Zhao Canniang saw, how enviable the two of them were in love.
Zhao Canniang smiled slightly: "I want to send you out, you are fifteen years old, it is a good year, if you wait until eighteen to be better, everyone will be picked away." ”
When Lan Die heard this, he thought he had done something wrong, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Mrs. Lan Die doesn't want to marry yet." ”
"Why?" Zhao Canniang was a little puzzled, don't women all want to be able to marry a husband who knows cold and hot?
Blue Butterfly knelt down and said very seriously: "Madam, Blue Butterfly wants to serve you by your side for the rest of my life. ”
Zhao Canniang was even more puzzled when she heard this: "Didn't you envy Luliu last time when she went out to marry?" Why did you suddenly change your mind? Is there something going on at home? ”
Blue Butterfly nodded, tears already falling: "My father went to the mountains to hunt after the New Year, but he was injured and is now lying at home." There are several younger siblings at home, all of whom are supported by my monthly salary. I don't want to lose my current job, and the young lady asks you not to drive away the slaves. Slaves....... ”
Zhao Canniang heard clearly what was going on and smiled slightly: "You get up, if you really don't want to leave, stay for another year, your father's injury is not a big deal, right?" ”
Lan Die shook her head: "It's okay, Dad's injury is almost healed, it's just that because of Dad's injury, not much crops have been planted in the field this year." ”
Zhao Canniang frowned when she heard this: "Where is your house?" ”
Zhao Canniang was thinking that if it wasn't far away, she would be able to let Blue Butterfly's family plant konjac next year.
"Twenty miles away in Wujiagou."
"Twenty miles away, that's fine." Zhao Canniang whispered a word and said to Blue Butterfly: "Blue Butterfly, you can take some time to go back another day, go back and ask your father if he is willing to plant konjac, if he is willing to plant it, I can buy it then." When the konjac seed is planted, go to Zhaojiatang to get it. ”
The harvest of planting konjac in a year is higher than planting crops, although the purchase price is a little lower now, but the income of the next year is still very objective, and the most important thing is that it does not take too much thought.
Zhao Canniang really wanted to help Lan Die: "And do you have any older brothers or older brothers in your family?" ”
Blue Butterfly said honestly: "I have a younger brother who is fourteen years old this year. ”
Zhao Canniang smiled when she heard this: "You go back and ask your brother if he is willing to work in our konjac processing workshop, if your father is injured and can do things, ask too, the wages of the konjac processing workshop are very good, if you go to work, you can still live there, and you don't have to run back and forth." You have to ask Uncle Dafu about the specific salary, he is managing the things over there, you take the time to ask, at least it's better than outside. ”
Lan Die has been by Zhao Canniang's side for more than two years, and has always been loyal and honest by Zhao Canniang's side, and Zhao Canniang is still very satisfied with Lan De.
Lan Die said to Zhao Canniang gratefully, "Thank you, madam." I'll go back and ask when I'm off in a few days. ”
Blue Butterfly has been by Zhao Canniang's side for a long time, so she naturally knows about konjac. Making money is definitely better than growing crops.
"You're welcome, I'm supposed to treat you. You have taken care of me for so many years and have done your best, and now that I know this, I will definitely help. ”
After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she put the child on the soft couch.
"After a year, when things stabilize next year, you can find a good family to marry, and if you want to stay by my side and serve, you can stay."
When Lan Die heard this, she knew that Zhao Canniang didn't dislike her, but really wanted to be good to her, and she was very grateful.
"Thank you, madam, I will definitely do things well, and I will not disappoint my madam."
"I'm going to take a break too, you look at the kid."
After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she rubbed her forehead, only to feel a little dizzy.
Chen Zhongqiu came back very late.
As soon as I came back and took a bath, I slept tired next to Zhao Canniang.
Woke up by Chen Zhongqiu, Zhao Canniang looked at Chen Zhongqiu and asked in a low voice, "Why did you come back so late today, is something wrong?" ”
Chen Zhongqiu nodded, then sighed and said, "Something happened, don't worry, it's all a small matter." ”
Zhao Canniang saw that Chen Zhongqiu was reluctant to say or ask much, and continued to sleep groggyly.
When I woke up again, it was still dark. Zhao Canniang touched the emptiness around her, and when she opened her eyes, she found that Chen Zhongqiu was no longer there.
Only then did he get up and shout to the little maid who was on night duty outside.
"Ma'am." The little maid walked in and shouted in a low voice.
Zhao Canniang rubbed her eyes and felt a little dry: "Where's the son?" ”
The little maid immediately said: "The son went out at the second watch, saying that he told me not to wake you up." ”
Zhao Canniang heard this and looked outside.
"What time is it now?"
"It's only been the third watch."
The little maid whispered.
Zhao Canniang got up: "Do you know where the son went?" ”
The little girl immediately shook her head.
Zhao Canniang sighed, put on her clothes, and walked to the edge of the small bed to look at the child who was sleeping soundly.
"Call the blue butterfly."
Zhao Canniang thinks that today's Chen Zhongqiu is too abnormal, isn't there something going on outside?
The more Zhao Canniang thought about it, the more worried she became.
Blue Butterfly came in a moment, and she was still tethering her clothes as she walked.
"Ma'am."
Lan Die walked to Zhao Canniang's side, asked An, and stood aside.
"You take care of the children at home, I'm going to go out."
After Zhao Canniang finished speaking, she handed the child to Blue Butterfly.
Zhao Canniang went out of the house directly.
At the gatehouse, I learned that Chen Zhongqiu went to the Silver Building.
Zhao Canniang directly called the coachman to drive there.
At this time, there were not many people on the street, and the carriage was running on the silent street, and all I could hear was the sound of the wheel.
The carriage arrived at the door of the silver building in a few moments.
When I raised my head, I saw that the second floor was brightly lit, and not far away, a carriage happened to be parked in a dark corner.
Things were very weird, Zhao Canniang frowned and didn't rush up, but asked the coachman to drive the car to the side of the road and observe.
After about a quarter of an hour, Chen Zhongqiu opened the door and came in from inside, followed by a young man.
Zhao Canniang's brows furrowed even more.
Almost all the people in the business know Zhao Canniang, but the man Zhao Canniang just now has not seen it, which is strange.
After Zhao Canniang waited for the man to leave, she got out of the carriage and walked towards Chen Zhongqiu.
Obviously, Chen Zhongqiu didn't expect Zhao Canniang to come.
"You saw it all?" Chen Zhongqiu asked in a low voice, his voice a little tired.
Zhao Canniang nodded: "Did something happen?" ”
If it weren't for something big, Zhao Canniang believed that Chen Zhongqiu would not be like this.
Chen Zhongqiu nodded and said, "Something big has indeed happened. (To be continued......)
