82. Restitution
"The way to do this is to persecute the girls of the tribe. The girl who was supposed to talk about marriage at fifteen years old sold it for a daughter-in-law at the age of ten......"
"In the first year, in order to keep the eldest son from joining the army, he burned a baby to death, and in the second year, he told the mother to give birth quickly. With the same hand that pinched the baby's leg and dipped it in the boiling bucket, he took the woman's arm and forced her to have sex. If you can't give birth, pay alimony, not only pay money, break the woman's legs, lock up in the room to conceive, when to give birth, when to release. ”
"The mother who gave birth to the child went mad and grabbed it into the river. The mother who had a difficult birth was tied to the back of the cow and horse, pumped the buttocks of the cow and horse, turned the child upside down, and the mother bleed to death, so she died, and it was a big deal to bury a mother's grave. ”
Liang Jing arched his body, interlaced his five fingers, and pressed it on his head: "My mother is dead." Two months after he died, my father continued to ......"
It turned out that the mother Liang Jing was talking about was not his biological mother, but his father's wife, who was Liang Shou's biological mother.
Liang Shou ran outside the courtyard, looking at the new house he was going to move into tomorrow, it was really leisurely.
He didn't know who his birth was based on, who was free from his carefreeness, and who was shielding him from the storm.
Liang Jing looked at Liang Shou from a distance and continued: "You thought I was a little early to get married, but in fact, I already have five wives and concubines, and the clan still wants me to marry again. ”
"I only like my Rui'er, she has nothing to do, so I can take one more concubine at most. But I can't call the shots, Rui'er was forcibly sent away by them, leaving behind a group of chattering women, and the person who gave birth to my first child became my current wife. ”
Liang Jing said as he spoke, his eyes were stunned, as if he was thinking about where his beloved girl had finally gone.
"I sometimes think that the old men and women of the tribe have sand and sharp throats, their eyes are bald, and their skin hangs from their bones...... It's like a bunch of demons and monsters in the skin of old men...... Why, not dead? Why, not dead?"
Ru Sanshui's scalp tingled when he heard it. This is not the Liang family she knows, the Liang family of two hundred years ago, the Liang family of neighborliness, generosity and loyalty, has long since ceased to exist.
After a while, Liang Jing took a deep breath and sat up straight: "I'm sorry, I said something I shouldn't have said." ”
Ru Sanshui said, "It's okay. ”
The two of them remained silent and did not talk again.
Ru Sanshui did not rest this night, in order to ensure the safety of the Liang family, she went to drive all the unjust ghosts and evil ghosts she could find at the foot of the imperial city, up and down Yingtianfu, to the shore of Yanque Lake. It took another night to burn their obsessions.
On the second day, the Liang family moved to a new home, starting from the inn, for the sake of luck, pay special attention to the festivities, sprinkle and sweep clean in front of the gate, and use bamboo poles on both sides to provoke three high firecrackers each.
The wedding banquet was held in the evening, and the Bai family only left one person to congratulate them, in addition, the Liang family invited Ru Sanshui, Jiang Heng, and Ruan Hongque, and Ruan Hongque naturally brought Shen Rongkne.
After the banquet was over, Ru Sanshui didn't gossip with Shen Rongkne, nor did he pay too much attention to Jiang Heng, and came out alone.
Jiang Heng originally planned to say something to Ru Sanshui, but when he saw Ru Sanshui leave alone, his footsteps stopped again.
Ru Sanshui was about to leave early the next morning, and in the end, she didn't come up with any way to protect the Liang family.
Liang Jing came to Ru Sanshui in private, saying that he had something to discuss with her.
Ru Sanshui followed Liang Jing into the West Chamber, which was supposed to be the residence of the female dependent, she didn't understand what she was doing here at first, and after opening the door, she was even more dazed.
Liang Jing's wife and mother were also in the room, and the old woman was holding a delicate long box, and when she saw Ru Sanshui, she pulled her daughter-in-law and was about to kneel.
Ru Sanshui was at a loss. If you have to count the seniority, she can completely bear this woman's kneel without any weakness, but why do they kneel?
Before Ru Sanshui could stretch out his hand to help, Liang Jing closed the door, turned around and knelt down.
Ru Sanshui felt that he couldn't understand this scene, could it be that they knew who they were, and they would call her ancestor in the next sentence?
According to the genealogy of the Liang family, there has always been no her name. The ghost girl in the legend is also a lot of rumors, and her credibility is not high, not to mention that they probably don't know who she is.
At this moment, Ru Sanshui thought about several possibilities by herself, and the next moment the woman opened the long box, and she finally knew their intentions.
Lying quietly in the box was her old acquaintance, Bailu Sword.
Ru Sanshui helped the woman: "What do you want, get up and sit down and talk slowly." If you don't get up, I won't agree anything. ”
The three of them sat down, and the woman held the sword in her arms and gently wiped it with a soft cloth: "Doesn't the girl ask about it?"
The scabbard of black iron inlaid with white jade, the legend is engraved, and the word "deer" is dropped on it. The heavy sword of black iron is swirling, and the color is cold and hard. Although it has been passed down for many generations, it is still sharp and new, and the years have not left any traces on it, that is, the White Deer Sword is right.
"Since you have taken it out so solemnly, there is no need for me to ask again. ”
She knew that Liang Jing was the same as she thought, and they wanted to sacrifice this "bi" and avoid this "sin". But if they choose her, is it because they know something?
Liang Jing nodded: "This is the White Deer Sword, I know that you have always been a smart person." But to tell you the truth, although I trust you, I am far from the point where I can trust my life to you. ”
Ru Sanshui waited patiently for him to continue.
"We have experienced war and turmoil in people's hearts, and it is not easy to stabilize our footing, but because of this sword, we have frequently encountered treacherous things, and if we keep guarding this sword, sooner or later we will be destroyed. We sought the help of the Bai family, who were friends of the world, and in addition to letting us move our family away to avoid trouble, we also wrote a letter revealing a meaning, saying that we should give it to you. ”
Ru Sanshui frowned: "Who does the Bai family mean?"
In addition to Chen Linsheng in this world, there are also people in the Bai family who know her true origin? Why did the other party ask the Liang family to hand over the sword to her? What is the purpose? What is the reason why Liang Jing was convinced?
They looked at each other, Liang Jing had been a little tense just now, and when he heard Ru Sanshui's question, he actually relaxed a little.
"The other party also said that if you first ask, 'Why did you choose to give it to you,' you are not a person who can be trusted, and the sword cannot be given. If you ask, 'Who said he would give you the sword,' then the sword will be given to you and taken with you." ”
Ru Sanshui was a little displeased: "Yes, I know something, so I didn't ask why I gave me the White Deer Sword." Can you tell me now whose mean it is?"
Liang Jing took the White Deer Sword from the woman's hand: "We don't know. ”
Ru Sanshui chased closely: "How don't you know?"
"The messenger is a hired footman, who thinks he is hired to deliver fruits and vegetables. The letter is the seal of the Bai family, and there is no problem with the token, and the words are deliberately disguised. It's the meaning of the Bai family, I don't know who it is. ”
Ru Sanshui: "But in this way, it is inconvenient to disclose it to the outside world, which shows that there are only a few people who know." ”
"Also, the authority of the seal on the letter belongs to Bai Yige's generation, and there are other brothers and sisters in the Bai family who also have the same power. ”
Ru Sanshui: "This doesn't prove that maybe someone with higher power deliberately used the seal of the younger generation." ”
Liang Jing sighed and said: "I only know this, the letter has not been burned yet, and I can also give it to you." ”
Ru Sanshui stared at Liang Jing's eyes: "Have you seriously thought about it? This is a holy relic that will bless your Liang family's incense forever." ”
