Chapter 22: The Truth
The man didn't mind, just waved his hand and smiled, "It's okay." Who doesn't have a few tricky mothers-in-law, and every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. ”
Nan Wenshan didn't say anything, and laughed again and again. After all, he didn't want outsiders to see this, but he was worried that Chang Ru would not be able to handle it well when he returned to the backyard, so he handled it in the front yard.
Before Chang Ru left, Rong's mother's screams were still echoing in the courtyard. Chang Ru wanted to go and see, after all, it was her dowry, and now she was likely to be buried in the Nan family, and she felt a little guilty in her heart.
Rong's mother screamed to see Chang Ru and Nan Wenshan while being beaten, and repeatedly emphasized that she was wronged.
Chang Ru couldn't bear to go, shook the handkerchief in his hand, and took Nan Shiyu back to the backyard. Before leaving, Chang Ru remembered that there was a man sitting in the front hall who had never met before, who seemed to be a guest of Nanwenshan.
Chang Ru turned his head to look at the man, only to see that his long black hair was draped casually on both sides of his shoulders. But the man in front of him is extremely elegant, not half scattered, but has a lofty atmosphere.
He didn't notice Chang Ru and Nan Shiyu who were about to leave. His attention was completely absorbed by Rong's mother's screams.
Chang Ru frowned, turned around and was about to leave with Nan Shiyu.
At this moment, a maidservant girl stepped forward and saluted Chang Ru and said, "Third grandmother, Mother Rong didn't survive, she went." ”
Chang Ru was stunned for a moment, and her heart was very complicated. Rong's mother is her companion, and she has been with her since Changfu, and now she has died tragically......
Chang Ru gritted his teeth, this should be two hundred rods, let alone a person, even a cow would have to die. Nanwenshan is simply ruthless, Chang Ru has accelerated the pace of returning to the East Courtyard, if today's matter Rong's mother can discuss with her before doing it, she will not end up like this.
Chang Ru looked at Nan Shiyu silently, there was something else that exceeded her expectations today, that is, Nan Wenshan actually supported Nan Shiyu. If you want to attack her in the future, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.
When the two arrived at the fork of the east and west courtyards, Nan Shiyu was expressionless from hearing that Rong's mother had died to returning to the backyard, and she didn't even say a word to Chang Ru.
Nan Shiyu: "Third aunt, the niece went back to the courtyard." ”
Chang Ru: "You go." Go back and recuperate. ”
Nan Shiyu was still cold after saluting, she didn't feel the slightest guilt, nor did she feel the slightest sadness. For her, Rong's mother's death is innocent and good! If it weren't for Chang Ru's presence, she wouldn't be too happy, she couldn't wait to applaud Zhang Luo.
Nan Shiyu entered the West Courtyard with the support of Jin Zhi Yuye, Nan Shiyu covered the head injury, and only felt a little dizzy. If she hadn't been lucky enough to meet her grandfather today, I'm afraid Mother Rong's plan would have succeeded.
Back in the house, Nan Shiyu asked Yuye to go down, leaving Jin Zhi to serve him. Mother Liu had already heard about the Pure Lotus Pond and hurriedly entered Nan Shiyu's house.
Mother Liu's face was worried: "Ouch, how did you get it, my young lady?" Jin Zhi, how did you and Yuye serve Miss. ”
Jin Zhi's face was full of self-blame and he didn't say a word.
Nan Shiyu: "Okay, it's none of their business. Besides, there are three of us, Rong's mother brought a group of people, no matter how powerful these two Nizi are, they are not the opponents of a group of people. ”
Liu's mother had no choice but to say nothing, and turned around in distress and went out to find medicine for Nan Shiyu.
Jin Zhi finally opened her mouth, and tears flashed in her eyes: "Miss, Mother Rong, she ......" Even though Mother Rong was disrespectful to Nan Shiyu today, which was a capital crime, Jin Zhi still felt very sad in his heart.
Nan Shiyu didn't say anything, she understood that Jin Zhi was soft-hearted and kind-hearted, but she was not the Nan Shiyu she used to be. Nan Shiyu rubbed her head, and her thoughts drifted back to her previous life.
In her previous life, Rong's mother saw that their West Courtyard was easy to bully, and often made things difficult for the West Courtyard. Since Zhao is a good talker, Chang Ru doesn't care at all, so this Rong's mother kicks her nose and eyes and bullies Zhao all day long.
Nan Shiyu closed her eyes, she didn't want her terrible eyes to scare Jin Zhi.
If it hadn't been for Rong's mother's torture day after day in her previous life, her mother would not have passed away so early! Nan Shiyu frowned, Zhao's kindness before her death and the last overwhelm came to her mind, from this point of view, Rong's mother's death was really cheap for her.
At the thought of avenging half of the Zhao family, even though her body was in pain, Nan Shiyu still showed a relieved smile on her face.
Nan Shiyu and Chang Ru didn't find anything wrong on the way back to the backyard. This caused Nan Shiyu not to notice the man who was on her roof at the moment.
The man also laughed when he saw Nan Shiyu's relieved smile.
Mother Liu took the medicine warehouse and promoted Nan Shiyu's room: "Miss, these medicines are excellent. You have to show the slave and maid how the wound is. ”
Jin Zhi hurriedly stepped forward and untied the bandage on Nan Shiyu's head, revealing the hideous wound. The wound was like a well, hollow, and as soon as the bandage was removed, it began to bleed outward.
Mother Liu was shocked, hurriedly took the hemostatic medicine, and comforted Nan Shiyu and said, "Miss, you have to bear with it." Nan Shiyu nodded and motioned to Liu's mother to take the medicine.
Jin Zhi: "It's all to blame for the slave maid not protecting the young lady." At that time, Rong's mother and those people came out of nowhere and frightened the slave maid. And Mother Rong too, the slave maid has served the young lady for so long and has not found that Mother Rong has so much strength. She actually threw the young lady out......"
As she spoke, she was about to cry, and Nan Shiyu patted Jin Zhi's hands with one hand to show comfort.
Mother Liu: "Ouch, that young lady also has injuries on her body, and she has to let the old slave see it later." ”
Mother Liu thought about it, looked at Jin Zhi and stopped talking. She was worried about this time, she went to make cakes for Nan Shiyu for lunch in the morning, but when she came back, the master and servant were gone. When I asked, I realized that she had gone to the Pure Lotus Pond, which made her worry for a long time.
Mother Liu: "Miss, don't do these risky things in the future." Today's matter, if it weren't for Miss Willow to take care of the two servant women in advance......" Mother Liu looked at the golden branch.
Jin Zhi's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe it.
Golden Branch: "Huh? Miss already knew about today's events? No...... Miss, how do you know, those two servants were also ordered by Miss in advance? ”
Mother Liu: "Silly girl, if Miss doesn't make a point in advance, I'm afraid Miss won't be able to come back today." ”
Jin Zhi suddenly realized, and then he understood. Although Rong's mother has done a lot of evil, she has always been very good to the people in the house, and the group of people who follow Rong's mother can be trusted.
It seems that the so-called friendship is nothing more than that, and it has not been properly taken care of by Nan Shiyu.
Golden Branch: "The other two ......"
Nan Shiyu waved his hand and said with a disdainful smile: "Those two are just rudders who see the wind." Thanks to my grandfather today, if my grandfather wasn't there, maybe Rong's mother would have lived a few more days, and today's events would inevitably repeat itself. ”
"It's all about survival. In the face of life and death, people often understand......" Nan Shiyu's expression was a little lonely.
In the world, except for life and death, everything is idle. It wasn't until the death of her previous life that Nan Shiyu completely woke up to the fact that only by living could she do more.
After a while, Mother Liu and the others redressed Nan Shiyu's wounds, and helped Nan Shiyu into the inner room.
Nan Shiyu sat on the bed, this bed has been with her for many years, and every pillow and everything next to the bed is familiar to her. But why is she sitting on it so awkwardly now?
Nan Shiyu got up and walked around twice, and found that there was a mess at the head of the bed, which was obviously a trace of being moved.
Nan Shiyu: "Mother Liu, when I'm away, can someone enter the inner room?" ”
Mother Liu ran in and said, "Miss, it's Yuye who has come." Because the young lady told that if Yuye came in, there was no need to stop her, so the old slave did not stop her. and ......"
Nan Shiyu looked at Liu's mother's hesitant appearance, and said busily: "And what?" ”
Mother Liu: "Yuye took the sachet from the side of the young lady's bed. ”
Nan Shiyu nodded, and then let Liu's mother go down.
Yuye stole her sachet, and Nan Shiyu's mind spun quickly. In a few days, Tian Yuxiong will come, what will Yuye do with her sachet at this time?
The sachet sometimes has a special meaning, it seems that she and Nan Chengye are planning to do it or just her greed.
Nan Shiyu turned over on the bed, and she couldn't sleep a little. A few days ago, I talked to Liu's mother, and only then did I know that when she was away, Yuye always looked for opportunities to sneak into the inner room, so it seems that Yuye always steals her things.
Nan Shiyu looked at the roof, she really didn't want to sleep at all, and she rarely slept well since she came back. Yuye stole the sachet, no matter what it was used for, Nan Shiyu had to keep an eye on herself.
Nan Shiyu sat up, she decided to do something with this sachet. If Yuye really used it to frame her, it would be good for her to be prepared......
Early the next morning, Nan Shiyu asked Jin Zhi to dress her up after breakfast, not too grand, just plain.
Jin Zhi: "Where is Miss going today?" ”
Nan Shiyu: "Go to my grandfather's." ”
After finishing the combing, Nan Shiyu's master and servant went out and walked to the study of Nanwenshan in the front yard.
Jin Zhi snapped twice in front of the door: "Ancestor, the second lady has come to visit." After that, Nan Shiyu pushed the door open, and a burst of golden sunlight sprinkled on the ground through the door curtain, reflecting Nan Shiyu's slender figure.
Nan Shiyu walked in front of Nan Wenshan, she didn't know if she didn't enter the room, she was really shocked when she entered the room. Nan Shiyu didn't expect to meet the man who was watching the play in the front hall yesterday in Nanwen Mountain.
Why is this person still in Nanfu?
Nan Shiyu: "Grandfather Ann." ”
Nan Wenshan stretched out his hand and pulled Nan Shiyu, it was rare that he was not as serious as in the past. Nanwenshan is in a good mood today, and he treats the younger generations a lot kinder.
Nan Wenshan: "Yu'er, this is Lord Zheng Yizheng, you saw it yesterday." ”
Zheng Yi? Nan Shiyu tilted her neck, she had heard this name, but who was it...... She didn't seem to have seen this person in her previous life.
Zheng Xiang gestured to Nan Shiyu: "Second Miss makeup." ”
Seeing this, Nan Shiyu didn't care if she had seen it, and returned a salute to Zheng Yi: "Lord Zheng is safe." ”
Zheng Yi's voice was a little low and hoarse, which reminded Nan Shiyu of the man she had met in Zhao's house not long ago. Nan Shiyu's gaze stayed on Zheng Yi for a while, and after a while, Nan Shiyu could be sure that he was not that man.
That man gave her a different feeling than Zheng Yi. Nan Shiyu felt the aura of slaughter on Zheng Yi's body, could this be a killer? This person has been in Nanfu for two days in a row, and it seems that he is not a simple person.
Tianyu Xiong will arrive soon, and he doesn't know what Nanwenshan is thinking, how can he let someone with such a murderous aura be put into the mansion. Nan Shiyu didn't say anything, hoping that everything could go as planned.
If you come, you will be safe, Nan Shiyu comforted herself.
Nan Wenshan saw that today's Nan Shiyu was so generous and did not embarrass him, and he was very satisfied. In the past, he rarely paid attention to his granddaughter, who was very shy in his eyes, and often didn't know what she was thinking, so Nanwenshan snubbed Nan Shiyu.
Today's behavior of Nan Shiyu made him satisfied.
Nan Wenshan: "Yu'er, the four princes will come to the mansion in a few days to pay tribute to your mother, don't make any more trouble, otherwise you ......"
Nanwenshan is not angry but mighty.
After all, yesterday's joke is enough to happen once. If it happens on the day Tianyuxiong comes, I am afraid that the joke of Nanfu will spread to the capital.
Nan Shiyu hurriedly shrunk her neck, looking frightened: "Grandfather, don't worry, granddaughter has a sense of proportion." At all times, you must discipline your subordinates well. ”
Nan Shiyu's frightened appearance is very useful to Nan Wenshan. This is the good granddaughter he knows, probably the elders are like this.
Nan Wenshan: "Okay, since you have nothing to do, you can step down." Go and prepare your mother's memorial supplies, and don't make a mistake. ”
Nan Shiyu nodded: "My granddaughter knows." After taking a few steps back, he wanted to go back with the golden branch like this after saluting Nan Wenshan, but Nan Shiyu seemed to suddenly remember something.
Nan Shiyu looked at Nan Wenshan with tears and said, "My granddaughter still has something to ask for her grandfather." ”
Nan Wenshan: "If you don't ask for anything, you just say." ”
Nan Shiyu: "The granddaughter is afraid that her mother will be lonely, and she wants to beg her grandfather to let her granddaughter go out of the house to pray for her mother after her mother's funeral affairs are dealt with." ”
After listening to it, Zheng Yi praised Nan Shiyu again and again: "The second lady is filial, and the sun and the moon can be seen from heaven and earth." After speaking, he didn't forget to wink and smile at Nan Shiyu, and Nan Shiyu hurriedly bowed her head.
Since Zheng Yidu said so, it is not easy for Nan Wenshan to refuse, otherwise in the eyes of outsiders, it will be his harsh granddaughter who is a grandfather.
Nan Wenshan was helpless, his granddaughter was filial to him, and he didn't know. Otherwise, she wouldn't have come up with the idea of going with her mother, and she wouldn't have done the ridiculous thing of committing suicide.
Nan Wenshan: "Since Master Zheng has said so, after your mother's funeral affairs are dealt with, you can go." ”
Only then did Nan Shiyu turn around and take the golden branch back to the West Courtyard.
After Nan Shiyu walked away, Zheng Yi stepped forward and said to Nan Wenshan: "When I return to Beijing, Lord Xiao Nan ......."
