Chapter 71: Grandmother's Mind
Smiling slightly, Xiao Jinxuan's panic just now has long disappeared, but she calmly faced Xiao Jinke, which is a blessing.
Then he said with a light smile: "What the third sister said is that since the door of this room is also locked by you, then I won't play with my sister." ”
What she has to do has been done, is it really impossible to wait for death to stay.
was stunned by the other party's sudden salute, Xiao Jinke was stunned for a while.
And Xiao Jinxuan seized this opportunity, immediately got rid of the other party's entanglement, rushed towards the confession, and hugged the white jade Guanyin enshrined above into her arms, and she rushed out of the small Buddha hall without stopping.
Xiao Jinke also came back to her senses, looking at Xiao Jinxuan, who was gone, she secretly scolded the other party for being cunning, and looked around for a small columnar candlestick, held it in her hand and rushed out.
And Qiaomei, Qiaoxin, as early as when the small Buddha hall was on fire, knew that something was wrong, and had already gone out to find a water source, hoping that the fire could be controlled before it was discovered, so he also took the first step and ran out of the Buddha hall
For a while, in the Buddhist hall, people went to the empty building, except for the increasingly strong fire, there was no sound quietly.
Xiao Jinyu, who was lying on the wooden door and her neck was a little stiff, her face was puzzled, and she listened more carefully, but in addition to feeling that the wooden door was getting hotter and hotter, she couldn't hear the noisy sound just now.
Puzzled, she straightened up, she said with a puzzled face: "Baoge, you also go and listen, why is there no movement outside, could it be that Jinke kidnapped that girl?" But it's strange why there is no cry for help. ”
When Bao Ge heard this, he hurriedly leaned over to the door, but before she could listen, when she looked down, she saw that there was a thick stream of smoke pouring into their side room.
She exclaimed in surprise and shouted in panic: "Miss, get out of the way, there is a lot of smoke, don't choke on it." ”
Xiao Jinyu, who was pondering the situation outside, heard this, and quickly looked down, and when she saw that there was already a lot of black smoke pouring in, she screamed, covered her mouth and nose, and retreated.
"Bao Pigeon, open the door quickly, we have to go out, it seems that something is wrong outside, Jinke will not burn down the Buddha Hall."
She can not care about Xiao Jinxuan's life or death, the other party is burned to death to her liking, but Xiao Jinyu still cherishes her little life, so she naturally does not want to stay and die with her.
Hearing this, Bao Ge nodded in a panic, and then hurriedly pushed the door, this side room is the back of the small Buddha Hall, a small room added, basically no one lives on weekdays, so there is not even a window, if you don't go out, they really have to be trapped here.
But now the door of the room has long been locked from the outside, so the treasure pigeon has used all the strength to feed, and the door is still not moving.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Jinyu panicked, just this moment, a lot of smoke had poured into the small side room, she covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and she was already choking and coughing.
Ignoring the dignified elegance of the past, Xiao Jinyu ran to the wooden door, stretched out her hand and pounded the wooden board vigorously, her eyes didn't know whether she was frightened or choked by the smoke, and her tears couldn't stop flowing down.
"Open the door, is there anyone outside, Jinxuan, you are still there, save my sister, grandmother, where are you, Yu'er is so afraid, come quickly."
At this time, she finally remembered that Xiao Jinxuan was coming, but the other party had long since lost sight of how far she had run out, and where she could live or die.
As for the old lady who has always loved her, she won't pinch her fingers to tell fortunes, let alone know that her precious granddaughter is hovering on the line of life and death.
And now the old lady, not only does not know all this, but also calmly drinks soothing tea, behind her Aunt Jin Chuan is pinching her back, compared to Xiao Jinyu's embarrassment and despair, the old lady is quite comfortable now.
I saw that after she drank all the half cups of tea, she suddenly sighed.
"Jin Chuan, I'm really old, I drink this soothing tea three times a day, but this sleep is still very shallow, and I can't live in peace every day."
When the old lady is in front of people, she is always solemn and steady, and now she can relax and chat a few troubles, and the only one left is Jin Chuan, an old servant who has accompanied her to marry into the Shuai Mansion for more than 40 years.
When this Aunt Jinchuan entered the Shuai Mansion, she was still a nine-year-old little girl, but now she is already a Shuai Mansion, no one dares to underestimate the existence, and she is very relied on by the old lady, that is, the lady of several rooms, she has to be polite when she sees her.
After a pause in the massage action in his hand, Jin Chuan smiled.
"Don't say that, old lady, you are only nine out of fifty, you are still young, it will be difficult to sleep peacefully, and there have been many things in the house recently, and you are partial to everything, if you are willing to worry less, you are not afraid of sleeping unsteadily."
Hearing this, the old lady closed her eyes and shook her head slowly.
"Jin Shun, the mind of the old body, you know best, the four girls entered Beijing, how can I rest assured, since I decided to pick her up, I **** night, I can dream of the second child, he is covered in blood and looks at me, no matter how I shout, his ruthless little beast just refuses to take care of me."
At the end, the old lady's voice was a little choked, she picked up the handkerchief beside her, wiped the corners of her eyes, and took a few breaths, her excited expression calmed down a little.
Seeing her like this, Jin Shun sighed and comforted softly: "The second master has gone, the old lady misses him like this, the second master is the most filial, if he knows underground, he will not feel at ease." ”
The old lady's eyes turned red again, and her body trembled a little.
"I will never forget, when the news of the death of the second elder came, I felt like I was dying, but the letter of the second elder on the front foot was handed to me, and the next moment the family letter of Yangzhou Annunciation was also handed to the old body, the old man died in World War II, but Jinxuan's girl was born, the two were not only born and died on the same day, but the letter of this death and life was also transmitted to the Shuai Mansion on the same day, saying that the second child was not killed by Jinxuanke, and the old body died without believing it."
The second child in the old lady's mouth is her second son Xiao Hua, who has been killed in battle for more than ten years, and she originally did not put the other party's death on Xiao Jinxuan's body.
But later, when she knew that the other party had killed the people in the hospital as soon as she was born, from that moment on, she decided that her son was also killed by the other party, and she believed it for more than ten years.
Jin Shun poured another cup of soothing tea for the old lady, hoping to relieve the other party's excitement.
"Old lady, since this fourth lady is so obstructive to your eyes, why do you have to take her and block yourself, just let her stay with the fourth master, marry and have children in the future, and don't have this granddaughter." Xiao Heng is the fourth oldest in the family, so this fourth master refers to him.
The old lady took a sip of tea, calmed down a lot, and then snorted.
"You want to take her back when you are old, but the snow disaster in Yangzhou, this girl is out of the limelight, even the saint has spoken praise, she is now also a glory for the Xiao family, if I still don't allow her to come to Changping, how will others talk about the Shuai Mansion, and when the Shuai Ye comes back in the future, how will I explain, others will say that I am unfair, partial and disgusting, I don't want people to poke the backbone of the old body."
In fact, it is better to say that it is her husband, Marshal Xiao is what she fears the most.
thought that according to her intentions, she should have killed Xiao Jinxuan, a disaster star, but Marshal Xiao refused, the other party had been fighting horses all his life, and he had been killed and injured on the battlefield, he had seen too much, and he would not blame his son's death on an innocent baby girl, not to mention that the child was still his own granddaughter.
In the end, the old lady forced each other to die, and the old handsome man regressed and allowed Xiao Jinxuan to be sent to Zhuangzi.
has been married to the old handsome man for more than 40 years, and the old lady knows very well that if Xiao Jinxuan is meritorious and does not take it back, as long as she is partial in this matter, she has always been fair, and the handsome man who loves the younger generation will definitely be the first to get along with her.
The old lady didn't want to anger the other party's bottom line, so she couldn't help but compromise and take Xiao Jinxuan back.
When Jin Chuan heard this, he nodded approvingly, and was about to comfort the old lady with a few words and make her want to open more, but he didn't want to hear a quick knock outside the door, interrupting the conversation between the master and servant.
Jin Chuan frowned and opened the door, only then did he want to reprimand the person who came, it was too unruly, but before he could speak, the person who came rushed in and ran in.
While running, he also shouted: "Old lady, go to the small Buddha hall and take a look, there is an accident there, and the third and fourth ladies are making trouble there." ”
As soon as she left, she asked the aunt surnamed Liu to inform the ladies of each room, and she hurried to inform the old lady, as long as the masters told her, what happened over there, no one could blame her.
As soon as she heard that something had happened in the small Buddha hall, the old lady sat up immediately, don't look at her as a stern person, but she is a devout Buddhist believer, not to mention, the small Buddha hall is still offered, the white jade Guanyin given by Emperor Ming himself, if this is a little missing, how to deal with it.
The old lady was full of anger, and immediately ordered: "Jinchuan, let's go, I want to see what those two dead girls have made my Buddha hall look like, there are no rules at all, especially the four girls, who have repeatedly caused trouble when they come, and this time I don't punish her well, I'm afraid it will be difficult to remember it for a long time." ”
For fear of being criticized, she had no choice but to bring Xiao Jinxuan over, but the old lady's heart was actually very strong.
Just like now, before the matter is clear, she is already thinking about how to punish Xiao Jinxuan, as for the other party, Xiao Jinke, she didn't say anything to be punished, which shows how much this grandmother doesn't like this fourth granddaughter in her heart.
After a while, the old lady walked out of the courtyard and hurried to the small Buddha hall, because this Buddha hall is the place where she worships the Buddha on weekdays, so from her courtyard to the small Buddha hall, there is a separate straight corridor, which is very flat, and it saves time and effort to walk.
Seeing that after a corner, you can see the small Buddha hall, and the old lady walked in front, and her steps couldn't help but be a little faster.
But just as she was about to turn around, a figure suddenly appeared and crashed into her.
After all, the old lady was old and frail, and she stumbled backwards, and the maids and women around her exclaimed again and again, and they were in a hurry to help her.
Jin Chuan's brows were furrowed, his eyes were full of anger, and when he bumped into the old lady's visitor, he was about to blurt out the scolding, but after seeing the person clearly, shock flashed in her eyes, and she was completely stunned.
