Chapter 144: Yin and Yang are at peace
Yu Niang followed the path that the bustard said to Miss Wang's house in the afternoon of the next day. She was greeted by an old woman, although the old woman behaved politely, her eyes were red and swollen, and she had obviously cried. Yu Niang followed her into the bamboo fence courtyard, but when she entered the house, she did not see Miss Wang's body. Seeing that the old woman looked calm, Yu Niang did not speak ill of her, although she was a little relieved in her heart, but she became even more cramped. She fidgeted, her hands kept tugging at her skirt, her willow eyebrows frowned, her cherry lips biting slightly, she wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say. When the old woman saw her like this, she didn't blame her, but said, "You are the jade lady, right?" I've often heard about you. ”
Yu Niang was slightly stunned in her heart, thinking that this old woman said this, naturally she knew how she had tortured her daughter over the years, and how she had humiliated and teased Miss Wang. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shake my body. Just as he was about to speak, he heard the old woman say: "Yangyang is not often at home, but every time she goes home, she always talks to me about you." She always told me that when she saw you enter Fengyue Tower, it was like seeing yourself sold into Fengyue Tower by me. The old woman sighed and said: "There are many sufferings in the world, in the final analysis, there is no way to get around the word money. Although our family was not rich at that time, we could barely get by. It is also a joy to have a woman when you are old. I didn't expect the Son of Heaven to be easy to kill, and he was widely recruited for military service, although the age of my family was old, he was also recruited to work on the front line, and there has been no news since then. The two of us couldn't last a few years, and then we felt that we couldn't live anymore, so we had no choice but to sell her into Fengyue Building. ”
When Yu Niang heard the old woman say this, she couldn't help but feel sad, and her eyes immediately turned red. When the old woman saw her like this, she continued, "She said to me that you were a child, and you were more pitiful than she was. Because of her own heart, when she first arrived, she suffered a lot of flesh and skin. Now when I saw you come in, I couldn't bear to let you suffer any more, so I protected you everywhere. She paused and said, "Fortunately, your heart is also easy-going, not like me." I heard her say that you are very well-behaved and obedient, so you have not suffered too much grievance. Even so, she is still worried about you, so she thinks about you everywhere. Secretly, I don't know how many bustards I've been scolded, you don't know this, and she won't let me tell you. Now that they are gone, I will tell you. ”
Yu Niang heard tears like rain, gritted her teeth to prevent herself from crying, the old woman saw her like this, she couldn't help but have slightly red eyes, and continued: "Later, when you got older, my Yangyang was not as beautiful as before, and I couldn't solicit business like before." Every time she came back, she always complained to me, saying that the bustard was angry with her again and deducted her money. Fortunately, you were already the top brand of Fengyue Building at that time, and you were in charge of talking, so the old bustard didn't make it any more difficult. Several times because of the guests' picking, it was you who came forward to solve the siege. Many times, rouge gouache is also bought by you who lend money to him. Speaking of which, the old body hasn't thanked you yet, thank you for taking care of my daughter. As he spoke, he knelt down and bowed. Seeing this, Yu Niang hurriedly held on, and she was already crying silently.
"Life and death are fateful." The old woman said sincerely, but every sentence sounded like a knife to Yu Niang. Yu Niang's expression was in a trance, tears were rolling, and she was afraid that if she listened to her again, she would die of shame. hurriedly bowed to the old woman, but didn't even have time to ask where the body was buried, and ran out as if she were running away.
After running for a long time, seeing that the hut had been covered by the woods, and could not be seen clearly, Yu Niang fell to the ground all of a sudden, and cried bitterly, crying for a long time, until the evening gradually stopped, her eyes were sore, her speech was hoarse, and her expression was in a trance, her gait was shaking, as if she had lost her soul, so she returned to Fengyue Tower, and she was bedridden, and she stayed in the room for several days before she got better. Feeling that her body was slightly better, Yu Niang went out again. It's just that this time I didn't go to worship Miss Wang, but I went to find Shanxinhou.
"Sister Yangyang cares about her life, except for me and my mother, only Shanxin is left." Yu Niang touched the money bag in her arms, which was full of silver coins. Sister Yangyang's mother's side, I have already sent someone to send silver cloth. These silver coins must be given to Uncle Shan this time, so that he can take the money back to his hometown, buy some real estate and fields, and buy a few maids and servants, although he and his sister can't live in this life, but this kind of asset is enough for him to have no worries in this life. ”
Thinking like this, through the streets and alleys, wading across the bridge, three twists and nine turns have already arrived at the small dilapidated house where Shan Xinhou lives. Seeing that the dilapidated house was in front of her, Yu Niang hesitated: "If Uncle Shan didn't know that Sister Yangyang was dead, wouldn't I be so reckless to rush over like I came to see the joke?" Or maybe Uncle Shan already knows that Sister Yangyang is dead, but he doesn't want to accept the money, then what should I do? What if he pulls me to pay for my life? She hated Shanxin, but now that Sister Yangyang is dead, the resentment against the two of them in her heart has long been washed away by remorse, so she doesn't call him by his name at this moment, but calls him Uncle Shan. She hesitated again and again, her heart was down, and she said to herself: "Sister Yangyang treats you kindly, and now you will take revenge and kill your sister, even if Uncle Good asks you to pay for your life, what kind of face do you have to refuse?" I taught you to die thousands of times, and you deserve it, and you can't complain about others. Thinking like this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, took a step, and went to the room.
When she came to the house, Yu Niang was uneasy, and cautiously probed into the house, but there was no one left and right. "Could it be that Uncle Shan knows about his sister's death and now goes to wake for her?" Yu Niang sighed slightly, and when she was about to turn around, she suddenly heard someone outside the courtyard drink from a distance: "Who are you?" What are you doing here? Yu Niang was in a trance, and suddenly heard this voice, and couldn't help but tremble violently, and hurriedly turned her head around. When I looked closely, it turned out to be a passing hunter.
"I'm looking for a good person." Seeing that it was a stranger, Yu Niang hurriedly replied, "I haven't seen him for a long time, so I came to see him." ”
"Who are you?" The man was carrying firewood and grass and a yellow duck, apparently just returning from hunting in the mountains to collect firewood. He saw that Yu Niang was dressed gorgeously, not like a woman from a poor family, so he asked, "I don't remember that Shanxiu had such a rich friend as you." ”
"I... I'm his distant cousin. Yu Niang knew that if she wanted to explain it clearly, she would have to spend a lot of time, so she lied and said, "This big brother, have you ever seen my cousin?" ”
"He's dead." The man lifted the firewood on his shoulder and said, "I used to sell me firewood and grass, but now I can only chop firewood myself." ”
"Dead?" Yu Niang rumbled in her skull, only to feel that the sky was spinning, and the money bag in her hand fell to the ground unconsciously. She asked in a trembling voice, "When?" ”
"It's been days." The Orion said, "The body is buried in the back mountain." "Take a hundred plating" Guihong Sacrifice Claw Book House The latest chapter of "Guihong Sacrifice Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
