Chapter 62: The Aspirations of the People (8)

It's just that an old woman died, and the government didn't investigate it too much, and no other evidence could be found at the scene, the only evidence was that of the old woman, and all valuable things were taken away, and the government judged that it was a robbery.

Although that man also made a fuss, who would pay attention to the powerless?

Zhao Mansion.

Rouge had a different opinion on this matter, and when she was forced by her grandmother to study, she talked to Liu.

"Grandmother, this old woman died a little strangely. I seem to know something. ”

"What do you know? Let's hear it. ”

"I went out that day, when I came back from the shop. Passing by the alley, I glanced inside, and it seemed that the old woman was followed by a man dressed in black. ”

"Someone in black?"

Rouge carefully recalled the events of that day again.

She went out in the afternoon to go to the shop to see, how were the books printed? When I came back, I took a detour to Gong's pastry shop to buy some pastries and came back, and happened to pass through that alley.

The alley was very deep, so Rouge deliberately took a look inside.

At that time, Rouge saw an old woman inside, followed by a man in black. I didn't think much of it, I just thought that the person liked black clothes.

But then someone reported to the police. It is said that an old woman died in the alley, as if she had been robbed.

At this time, Rouge remembered that where someone would wear black clothes would be so black, it was black from head to toe.

There must be something greasy in this.

"Yes, grandmother. I thought it was strange at the time, but I didn't think much of it. But when this old woman died, I thought it was a little strange. Thinking of yesterday's situation, I'm afraid this old woman is not so simple. ”

Liu also thinks so, but more is better than less.

"Okay, it's none of our business, let's not meddle, so as not to cause trouble."

"But grandmother, this is a human life!"

"We say why so many people die every day in this world. If we take care of it one by one, we will manage it until the Year of the Monkey, when your grandfather fought on the battlefield, thousands of people died in a battle. If your grandfather was to take care of them one by one, would he still have to fight the battle? ”

Rouge Heart also understands. Liu's words, although they are a bit heavy, are indeed such a truth.

"I see, grandmother. I just think that the old woman died a little unjustly. ”

"Good boy, there are some things that we have more than we can do. Since you know about this matter, then put it in your heart, in case one day this old woman dies really wronged, it doesn't hurt you to talk about it again, you know? ”

"Yes, grandmother, I know!"

As he spoke, Rouge stopped and made his hand a handkerchief.

Liu Shi saw it, and naturally he was not allowed.

"Don't be lazy, embroider well, you must embroider this mandarin duck today."

"Oh."

I thought that I would not have to be a female celebrity by saying something off-topic, but I really thought too much.

Song House.

Today is the day when Song Wuyang went to visit Chu's house, and he got up early in the morning to clean up and dress himself.

Hair is meticulously combed and changed into a clean and neat robe. With a carefully selected gift.

Set off to Chu's house.

In the carriage. Mrs. Wang looked at Song Wuyang's energetic appearance. I was secretly happy.

Song Ergongzi cleaned up so neatly. It's really suave and handsome.

This Miss Chu is definitely going to fall into it, and I am afraid that she will get a lot of money when she talks about this matchmaker.

Chu Jingting also got up early in the morning to clean up herself, and the matchmaker Wang came, and the news said that Song Wuyang came to the door today.

Under the service of the maid, he combed his hair in a delicate bun, wore extraordinary jewelry, and wore beautiful clothes.

In the mirror, a lovely person of extraordinary beauty appeared.

"Whose girl is this, so beautiful."

Aunt Hu also got up early in the morning, and came over to see her daughter after cleaning up.

The mother and daughter agreed that if the second son of Song behaved well today, the marriage would be decided on the spot.

"Auntie, what are you talking about?"

"What did I say, this is really a beautiful person, like a fairy."

Sitting on the stool, there was a maid waiting for Chu Jingting, who was combing her hair in a bun, and smiled.

"No matter how beautiful a person is like a fairy, it's not the daughter you gave birth to, this daughter is like a fairy, then isn't this aunt a more beautiful fairy?"

The mother and daughter were in a good mood, and even the little maid who combed her hair couldn't help talking.

"My aunt is good-looking, and the young lady is good-looking, and they are all fairy-like people. Then our uncle is even better-looking. ”

"Say what? My uncle is a man, how can I use the word good-looking to describe it? ”

The old grandmother beside Aunt Hu "taught" the little maid.

A room full of people is lively, and listening to it makes people feel happy.

"What are you talking about, it's so lively."

Before I saw anyone, I heard the voice, wasn't it Aunt Zheng.

"Sister, why did you come so early?"

"Didn't I come to see what our Jing Ting was dressed up in? Sister, I have an idea, I wonder if you would like to hear it? ”

"Sister, just say it."

"Today, the second son of Song came to the door, I think since Jing Ting is interested in him. Then, if the marriage is good, let's settle it directly. This lady's birthday feast is coming soon. If it drags on any longer, I'm afraid we won't be able to do it. ”

Aunt Zheng's mind was thought of with the mother and daughter.

"My sister won't tell you anything, I think so too, but I haven't opened my mouth to tell you yet."

Today, the Chu family is not only busy with these three people, but also Aunt Li and Chu Wentao, the mother and son.

Before, Chu Wentao ran to question Chu Jingting, under the intimidation of Aunt Hu. I went to the old lady and told me everything about my behavior.

The old lady asked him to apologize to Chu Jingting within ten days and get her understanding.

This made Chu Wentao unable to pull this face no matter what, so as soon as the ten-day period passed, the old lady made him kneel in the ancestral hall for three days and copied ten volumes of scriptures on the grounds that the family law did not respect the eldest sister.

The punishment was not very severe, but it lost his face.

This can make the mother and son hold a grudge, thinking that Aunt Hu and their mother and daughter deliberately targeted themselves.

Aunt Li suffered a loss from Aunt Zhao before, and she also felt that the two of them had framed her.

This stupid mother and son do not find the reason from themselves, but find the reason from others and find a motivation.

knew that the second son of Song came to the door today, for the marriage with Chu Jingting.

The mother and son are going to give Aunt Zhao a big gift today, so that they can vent the evil anger in their hearts.

Song Wuyang's carriage arrived, and there were already people waiting at the gate of the Chu Mansion.

Led the two of them all the way through the cloister to the hall.

After Aunt Zheng and Aunt Hu saw Song Wuyang coming, they were still sitting there and did not get up to greet them.

Song Wuyang didn't feel anything wrong, after all, the two were elders, and this was as it should be.

Respectfully walked to the middle of the hall and bowed to the two of them.

"The younger generation Song Wuyang has seen the two ladies."

"Get up! Sit. ”

Today's protagonist is Aunt Hu, who sits in the main seat. said a word lightly, not very warm.

Song Wuyang only felt a little panicked in his heart, the two of them were really too cold about themselves, and they were worried, did they not like themselves?

"The two ladies, the juniors didn't know what to bring when they came to the door for the first time, so they prepared a little light gift and brought it to the old lady. I hope the old lady can like it. ”

Song Wuyang said this very clearly, he only brought gifts to the old lady, and the rest of the people did not bring them.

However, Aunt Zheng and Aunt Hu don't care about this gift, and it is already rare for Song Wuyang to have this heart.

"Then thank you Song Ergongzi, I think the old lady will like it very much."

This is mainly Aunt Hu's inspection of her son-in-law, and Aunt Zheng has a lot of inconvenience sitting here.

He found an excuse and said that he was going to give a gift to the old lady, and left the hall.

Chu Jingting, who was hiding behind the screen, watched. Song Wuyang's every move was the breath of a literati, and he couldn't help blushing in his heart.

If Aunt Hu saw it, she would definitely say that he was useless. I blushed just by looking at them a few times.

Aunt Zheng took the gift to the old lady's yard.

The old lady knew that today was the day when Chu Jingting looked at her husband, and she was a little strange why Aunt Zheng came here?

"Zheng, isn't today the day when Jing Ting looks at the second son of the Song Mansion? What are you doing here? Don't help watch out in the front yard? ”

Aunt Zheng smiled.

"If you go back to the old lady, I'm here to give the old lady a gift."

"Give a gift, what gift?"

"It's a gift brought by the second son of the Song Mansion, and no one else has it, just one for the old lady."

"Really? I didn't expect that I, a bad old woman, still have people worried. ”

"What do you say, old lady? We all miss you. ”

After serving the old lady to wash up for so long, the relationship between the two people is one step closer. is not as distant as before, but has a touch of intimacy.

"Bring me the present, let me see."

"Hand it to the old lady."

There are many people who give gifts to old ladies, but this is specially prepared for old ladies, and this kind of heart is rare.

When I opened the gift, I saw that it was extremely precious 100-year-old ginseng and deer antler velvet.

"He's a good young man, this kind of heart is rare!"

This ginseng and deer antler velvet are both very precious medicinal materials, especially this century-old ginseng, which is even more rare.

This hundred-year-old ginseng is the treasure of the medicinal herb store, but because the year is too big, ordinary people can't afford it. And rich families have their own langzhong, pharmacies.

Song Wuyang wanted to buy them, and he was even more eager to make a move, and he was afraid that Song Wuyang would regret it and quit.

"Yes, I also think this second son of Song is good. The key is that we Jing Ting likes him a lot, and it is a good marriage. ”

"It's good that Jing Ting likes it, but the Song family's family background is some..."

"Old lady, you don't know? The elder brother of the second prince of Song, the eldest prince of Song is a chief general in the army, and he is deeply respected by General Zhao, and his future prospects are also limitless. This second son of Song loves poetry and books, and he is a famous talent among the students. ”

"Then this Song family is indeed not bad."

"The most important point is that the Song family has no other brothers and sisters, just these two brothers. The population is simple, and Jing Ting doesn't have to be tortured by her mother-in-law after she marries. ”

"That's good. I'm afraid that there are some evil mothers-in-law, but there is a set of making things difficult for my daughter-in-law. ”

This is two different things about being a mother-in-law's family and being a mother's family.

Now is marrying her granddaughter, and the old lady must hope that her granddaughter will not be bullied after marrying.

But if you marry your granddaughter-in-law, you must want to take your granddaughter-in-law to death.
