Chapter 974: Horror

Zhao Jia's family returned to Dongfu, Jinghui and Su Xin got the news, and they both came to wait in their mother-in-law's room.

Zhao Jia's deliberately played tricks, saying that when the Li family took the fourth sister and the fifth sister to the uncle's mansion for entertainment, he opened the brocade box he brought back and showed the two daughters-in-law the gorgeousness of the bracelet, as well as the color of the amber and coral on it.

In fact, Chu Yu was just modest, since it was something she was keeping, those pieces of amber and coral were no worse than those on the bracelet. The amber was golden, and it was very translucent; The coral is red, and it is not much of the highest quality.

"The eldest lady asked me to make buttons, such a precious thing, it's a pity to make buttons, or to make earrings. The beads of amber are grinded smaller, and it is also made to make a bracelet, but the same bracelet is heavier. Zhao Jia took a piece of amber and said to the two daughters-in-law.

Jinghui said with a smile: "Although the fourth sister and the fifth sister are not in time, it is also a big deal to go out to meet people, and the eldest aunt and sister-in-law love their sisters." The daughter-in-law is their own sister-in-law, and they can't look at it. Since the eldest aunt and sister-in-law both gave amber and coral, the daughter-in-law also had fun, so she gave an amber ring and a coral ring. ”

Zhao Jia's originally thought that Jing Hui, as the eldest sister-in-law, would have to take out a pair of twisted gold bracelets for the two little girls. If it is a finer one, two pairs will not use much gold, five or six taels will be enough. Even if you go out, wearing a pair of bracelets looks thin, and when you have more than two pairs of bracelets on your wrist, it will look shabby.

Unexpectedly, she said it nicely, but she was only willing to give two rings.

Not to mention the color of amber and coral, the gold of the two rings is only a few pennies.

Although they are all their own people, they are the fourth sister of their daughter on one side and their daughter-in-law on the other, so they are naturally light and heavy.

Zhao Jiashi didn't have time to put down his face, so he heard Su Xin speak: "Since everyone has added color to the two sisters, the daughter-in-law has also done her best, and the velvet flowers that the sisters wear when they go out will be handed over to the daughter-in-law." Although it's not worth a few dollars, it's good that it's made in-house, and it's a fashionable trick now. ”

Zhao Jia's was disturbed by the "stinginess" of the two daughters-in-law, and said with a smile: "You are all good sisters-in-law, I will inherit your love for the two sisters!" ”

At this time, the fourth sister and the fifth sister also arrived.

Zhao Jiashi stared at the bracelet and amber and coral material for a long time, and said to the fourth sister and the fifth son: "This is given by your eldest aunt and sister-in-law, for you to use when you go out." Your second and fifth sisters-in-law also added rings and velvet flowers to you, and you didn't hurry up to thank the two sisters-in-law. ”

The fourth sister and the fifth sister were still confused when they heard it, but they still obediently walked up to Jinghui and Su Xin, and bent their knees and said in unison: "Thank you for the second sister-in-law, thank you for the fifth sister-in-law." ”

Jinghui and Su Xin pulled them up one by one, and Zhao Jia's family couldn't help but snort coldly when they saw that they were enthusiastic.

Jinghui and Su Xin didn't move, but they both put down the hands of the fourth sister and the fifth son. The two of them glanced at each other, found an excuse, and withdrew together.

Zhao Jia's family was also worried about letting the fourth sister pick corals, wishing that they would go down early, so they went out.

By the time his gaze fell back on the brocade box, Zhao Jia's had already changed his mind.

The fourth sister is just a child, why let her choose? She can't be the master of this mother's invitation?

Amber looks warm to wear in winter, but corals are produced in the sea and are relatively scarce, and the red ones are festive.

"You take the coral, and the amber is your sister." Zhao Jiashi said to Si'er.

The fourth sister hesitated for a moment and said, "Mother, my daughter has a dark complexion and can't wear red, and my sister has a white complexion, and the coral lining looks more and more beautiful." Or, for my sister's coral, my daughter's amber? ”

Zhao Jiashi listened, looked at the slim Wu'er on the side, and became more and more unpleasant.

"What are you talking about? I left my uncle's mansion to hold a banquet, but I said that I had the time to grind my teeth with me, so I didn't hurry up to make some female celebrities. It is said that the people will cut your clothes for you, and the purse you are wearing cannot be used outside, but you have to make it yourself. Time is in a hurry, so it's better for you to prepare early. Zhao Jia said impatiently to the fourth sister.

The fourth sister was a little afraid of her mother, and when she said this, her mouth was tightly pursed, and she didn't dare to say anything else.

East across the courtyard, upper room.

The maid sent the tea down, and only Jinghui and Su Xin were talking in the room.

"The old lady seems to be annoyed, afraid that she will complain that I am stingy." Jing Hui said slowly.

Su Xin was holding the tea, took a sip of it to her mouth, and replied: "What I sent is just a velvet flower, if I say that my sister-in-law is stingy, then wouldn't I be even more stingy?" ”

Jinghui lowered her head slowly, wondering in her heart, what did her mother-in-law think, but she wanted to let the two of them go out to meet people. Wait quietly for the year of the draft, find a relationship and leave the brand, wouldn't it be more stable to marry your own family?

If you go out to see people, the fourth sister is fine, but she is virtuous and virtuous; Wu'er is lovely, she is already a beauty, and her words are terrifying, but she can't be afraid if she wants to make a brand.

Su Xin has been in the palace for many years, and he is the most fire-eyed.

Zhao Jia's surprise made Jinghui a little confused, but she saw it really. The mother-in-law did not change her surname and staged a big drama of treating her concubine as her own daughter, but because of the precedent of Wang Fujin and Cao Yi of Pingjun, she was thinking about clinging to the powerful.

Jinghui said as she spoke, and couldn't help but worry about Wu'er's fate. Xu saw Wu'er lonely and thought of her youth, which made her pay more attention to Wu'er.

It would be nice if the husband was here, the husband treats his siblings the most, and he also wants to have a lot of love for his two sisters, so he will not let his mother-in-law arrange ...... * Settle outside the door, the inner courtyard of Prince Yong's mansion.

After listening to the words of the imperial doctor, knowing that Fuhui was fine, Sifu Jin breathed a sigh of relief. The fourth elder brother was not there, she was staring at the affairs inside and out, and she was too busy.

I didn't expect Fuhui to be sick again, how can I not make people anxious.

Fuhui has been weaker than ordinary babies since she landed, crying non-stop at night; Now that he is one year old, how many good medicines have been used, so that Sifujin is also accustomed to having such a medicine jar in the house.

According to the rules, if Fuhui is sick, Fujin should be told to Sifujin, and Sifujin will ask the doctor to come over for diagnosis and treatment.

Unexpectedly, when the fourth elder brother was there, the Nian side Fujin was gentle and obedient, and he was also humble and polite in front of the Sifujin; Unexpectedly, the fourth elder brother was not in Beijing, but Nian's acted "perversely".

Not only did he not tell the four blessings, but he sent people out of the palace to invite the imperial doctor who was not commonly used in the palace; and also sent his henchmen out of the city to find the fourth elder brother.

In this way, not only did he not put Sifujin in his eyes, but he also didn't believe in Sifujin anymore.

When I got to the fourth elder brother, I don't know what the rhetoric is. In the same house for more than ten years, Sifujin has known that Nian's surname is always weak, and in fact, he doesn't eat at all.

Now that Fuhui is sick, I don't know which one she is going to have?

Earlier, there was no shortage of such precedents.

It's just that the other concubines of the fourth elder brother who were designed at that time were in the room, and the four blessings were just a lively look; Today it is different, I always feel that my eyelids are constantly picking, so I want something to happen, which makes people uneasy...... * Outside the Nanyuan Ranch, the sixteenth elder brother looked up at the sky, it was the end of the month, and there was only a thin crescent moon in the sky. It's dark in the distance, even if it's a carriage, it's uneasy to travel so late.

"Fourth brother, do you have to go at night? Although they are all official roads, the ones on the east side do not have to be flat on the south side. That is also uneasy, it is better to wait for tomorrow to return at dawn, and it will not be a few hours away. Brother Sixteen persuaded.

The fourth elder brother shook his head and said, "Go back early and rest assured." ”

Now it is the beginning of Hai (nine o'clock in the evening), starting from Nanyuan, after arriving at Nancheng, follow the official road outside the city wall, and go to Xizhimen. When you get to Xizhimen, you don't have to wait long before you have to open the gate for the water truck to go.

After receiving the news that his son was "critically ill", his first concern was not Fuhui, but that Nian's body could accept the blow.

He told himself from the bottom of his heart that he was by no means a slimy person, and his love for Nian's was just because she had a maiden relative behind her who could not be severed. Even if he cares about Nian's, it's just to make a woman happy.

He told himself so, but when he heard that his son was sick, Nian's weak figure floated in front of him, and he felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.

He didn't know if he was sad for his son or for his side room.

Until he said goodbye to the sixteenth elder brother and got into the carriage, the fourth elder brother still didn't figure out what it was.

In the middle of the night, the sound of horses' hooves on the official road became more and more "Tata".

In front of the carriage, several people rode horses and carried lamps to guide the carriage.

Suddenly, with a miserable cat meow, the carriage suddenly jolted hard and stopped.

The fourth elder brother felt a pain on his forehead, reached out and touched it, it was wet, and wiped it with his hand, isn't it blood? He held the beads on his wrist vigorously, lifted the curtain, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

The coachman's face turned pale and he stumbled back to what had happened.

It turned out that a wild cat had crossed the road, and the carriage was not in a hurry to avoid it, and the wild cat was crushed to death.

The fourth elder brother has believed in Buddhism for many years, and he has a little compassion, and when he heard that the wild cat died miserably, he also trembled in his heart.

Putting down the curtain of the carriage, the carriage continued to move forward, and the fourth elder brother closed his eyes to recuperate.

Because I was walking along the moat, I heard the sound of beating the watch from the city in the distance, and it was already a child's time.

Not far away, there are dots of torches hanging on both sides of the water truck.

A guard stepped forward to ask for instructions, whether to bring someone over first, and let the water truck make way for a way.

The fourth elder brother's mind has calmed down on this matter, and he is not as urgent as when he left Nanyuan, he waved his hand and said: "It's not more than it, it's the last in line." ”

The guards went down, and the fourth elder brother took out his pocket watch and glanced at it, and there were still two quarters of an hour (two o'clock in the morning).

He lowered his eyes slowly, deciding to take a nap.

In a daze, I heard someone shouting loudly, the fourth elder brother slowly opened his eyes, and before he understood what was going on, he heard a neighing of horses, and then the carriage moved violently, and the fourth elder brother couldn't react, he had already slipped from the seat to the ground, and his back was hit half dead by the bench.

He didn't have time to call people, the carriage had already leaned to one side, the fourth elder brother only felt a pain in the back of his head, his eyes were black, he lost his Qingming ...... * tears, his friends went to Beijing, went to visit, and on the way back, he did a taxi, first almost rear-ended, and then passed by the oncoming truck that broke the protective fence. If it weren't for the taxi driver's quick response, Xiao Cao would have been a eunuch...... Tear...... The speed of the code word is also inefficient, and it is only now that it is finished.
