Chapter 508: Death

Father Peng was so depressed that he couldn't remember how he returned to the Pingguo Mansion.

Fang Hanniang is being accompanied by Lu Ying to deal with some matters in Fuyuan Hall - the old lady of Pingguo is sick, Fang Hanniang doesn't want to trouble her grandmother with these trivial matters, there are many affairs at the moment, and some must be handled by the master, so Fang Hanniang simply took them all over.

Even said that Fang Zhiniang was pulled over by Fang Hanniang, thinking that the two sisters happened to learn from Lu Ying, which dealt with the regulations of the housekeeping of the deep house.

Although Fang Zhiniang is young, she can barely be called twelve years old after this year. In ancient times, this was already the age at which you could talk about marriage.

Fang Hanniang herself has a mature soul, and she doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with falling in love with Ji Jinxing at her age. But her sister hurts herself, and Fang Hanniang wants to stay with Fang Zhiniang for a few more years.

However, whether or not you want to stay with Fang Zhiniang for a few more years, you still have to learn how to deal with housekeeping in this house.

Fang Hanniang is a person who has been trained by modern education for more than 20 years, and she is very fast to get started, basically whatever Lu Ying says, she can draw inferences from one another, and the maids and servants next to her are shocked to look at this cousin girl like a fairy; And under the backdrop of Fang Hanniang, Fang Zhiniang's mastery is not inferior to her sister, although she is not as inferred as Fang Hanniang, but she is also a little clear and has a strong understanding.

Fang Hanniang is very proud of her sister's intelligence.

Even the green warbler couldn't help but say that at Miss Zhi's age, she had never seen anything more powerful than Miss Zhi.

Fang Zhiniang has a gentle temperament, she heard her sister and Lu Ying's praise, but she only blushed slightly, smiled and bent her eyes, and was not complacent and proud because of this.

At this moment, a servant woman in the outer courtyard came in and replied: "Father Peng asks to see the two girls." ”

Fang Hanniang sighed in her heart.

Fang Zhiniang was still a little confused, and subconsciously muttered: "Isn't this the day when Mother Peng and Lan Lan come back?" Eldest sister, you just granted Daddy Peng a few days off, why did you come back so soon? ”

She seemed to realize something, her face changed slightly, and she asked the servant, "Is it Daddy Peng alone?" ”

The servant woman didn't know why, but when the master asked, she still didn't dare to treat her lightly, and hurriedly replied: "It's a person, it looks a little ......" The servant woman stopped in embarrassment, as if she didn't know how to describe it, and held back for a long time before squeezing out a word, "It's a little miserable." ”

At this time, not only Fang Hanniang, but even the simple Fang Zhiniang realized something, and her small body suddenly froze in the huge Taishi chair.

Although Lu Ying has never seen Peng Ma and Peng Lanlan, as the eldest girl who leads the Fu Yuan Hall, she has naturally heard about Peng Ma and Peng Lanlan. As smart as she was, she immediately realized that something seemed to be wrong here.

The green warbler whispered: "It may not be that something happened......"

Seeing the expressions on the faces of the two cousins, the green warbler suddenly couldn't persuade him anymore.

These two girls in their family are extremely beautiful, but they are not so beautiful and simple-minded. They must have a good idea of what was going on, and she didn't have to say something to whitewash the peace to reassure the two cousins.

After all, Daddy Peng was waiting outside.

The green warbler didn't speak again, but sighed softly.

Fang Hanniang didn't have all those years of experience than Fang Zhiniang, she quickly calmed down: "Let Daddy Peng come in." ”

Father Peng's face was withered, and he walked in dejectedly.

As soon as he saw that the faces of the first two young ladies in the family were a little gloomy and looked at him nervously, Father Peng couldn't hold back any longer, fell to his knees, and cried bitterly.

It stands to reason that it is very taboo for a subordinate to cry so bitterly in front of the Lord's house. But for the two sisters of the Fang family, Father Peng is different from ordinary people, and the love for many years is there.

Fang Hanniang's eyes were a little red. Fang Zhiniang was young, and her emotions were still a little difficult to control, so she immediately asked with a little trembling: "Mother Peng and Lan Lan, but, what happened?" ”

Daddy Peng burst into tears, and with a rough hand, he took out the embroidered shoes with beads on the toe from his arms tremblingly, and placed them in front of him, he cried so much that he almost fell to the ground, and his speech was mostly choked and a little incoherent: "Go...... Both went...... said that he was robbed on the road, and he didn't leave anyone alive...... The local yamen collected the body and posted a notice...... The dart master went to look for the place where the accident occurred, and only found Lan Lan's embroidered shoes......"

Fang Zhiniang's whole body froze, tears involuntarily fell from her eyes, her voice was crying, and she blamed herself: "It's me who is bad, it's all my fault...... It would be nice to wait for Lan Lan at that time......"

When Daddy Peng heard this, his heart was even more like a knife.

At that time, how could he blame the second girl of his family!

The girl Lan Lan is sick and can't follow the team, it is a team of hundreds of people, and there is heavy snow blocking the mountain, if one is not good, it will be delayed for many days, how can it delay so many people's trips for Lan Lan's maid!

Father Peng didn't blame Fang Zhiniang, but he couldn't help but blame himself.

If only he had stayed with their mother and daughter at that time! Even if they can't be saved from the bandits' knife, the family can walk together neatly!

On such a cold day, their mother and daughter stayed in the ice and snow forever!

Thinking of this, Daddy Peng, a man with five big and three thick people, cried so much that he almost fainted.

Fang Hanniang wiped her tears with a handkerchief, and Tong Qiuzhu, whose voice was a little hoarse, ordered: "Go and bring a bowl of hot soup to Daddy Peng." ”

Qiuzhu's eyes are also a little red, how many masters don't treat the maid as a person, and they will beat them to death at every turn, how fortunate she is, first followed the loving old lady of Pingguo, and then followed such a kind-hearted good master!

Fang Hanniang walked up to Fang Zhiniang and hugged her sister. Fang Zhiniang was still forcibly suppressing her emotions, but she couldn't help crying there, her sister came over to comfort her, her emotions seemed to have found an outlet, and she threw herself into her sister's arms and cried loudly.

Fang Hanniang gently touched the top of her sister's hair.

Father Peng drank a bowl of hot soup, his mood stabilized a little, and when he saw that the second girl was crying so much that he was almost sobbing, his heart was even more colic, he endured the heartache, and persuaded in a somewhat choked voice: "Second Miss, don't cry...... The old slave's family should have died on the road to exile, but it was you who bought the old slave family and let the old slave live a safe and stable life for a few years, which is worth it. ”

As he spoke, his voice trembled slightly.

finally followed the master back to the capital, and seeing that the good days were long, the family was so separated from life and death......

Father Peng closed his eyes, kowtowed again, and his voice trembled: "Eldest Miss, Second Miss, the old slave wants to take a long vacation with you two and go to the place where their mother and daughter stay...... Now that they have all been buried in the ground, the old slave gave their mother and daughter an incense and asked for a tablet...... I will have an incense ...... in the future."

Fang Hanniang nodded, turned her head to Qiuzhu with red eyes and said, "Sister Qiuzhu, go get two hundred taels of silver to Father Peng." ”

Father Peng was shocked: "Miss, this ......"

Fang Hanniang interrupted Father Peng's words, and her tone was a little heavy: "You take it, repair the tomb for Peng's mother and Lan Lan, and invite some monks to recite scriptures to them, so that they can vote for a good ......family as soon as possible."

If it was Fang Hanniang in the past, she would definitely not believe in this kind of thing, but after she experienced rebirth, she felt that people have souls.

After Ruan Chubai went, Second Lady An lit a lantern for Ruan Chubai at the Pegasus Temple outside the city, invited 7749 monks, and recited the scriptures for Ruan Chubai for 7749 days.

Peng's mother and Peng Lanlan died tragically under the bandits' knives, hoping that they can live better in their next lives.

Other than that, she didn't know what she could do for their mother and daughter.

Father Peng burst into tears and kowtowed heavily to Fang Hanniang and Fang Zhiniang.

After Father Peng left, Fang Zhiniang was still very sad.

She and Peng Lanlan are close in age, and they have played together in the past few years, and their friendship is naturally deep.

Fang Zhiniang snorted and muttered to herself with a crying voice: "Is it the disaster caused by the silver I left for Lan Lan......

Fang Hanniang knew that her sister was kind, and it was difficult to get out of Peng Lanlan's death for a while, so she began to take responsibility for herself. She persuaded with some solemnity: "That's not the case. If you don't leave the money for Lan Lan and them, how can they ask the dart master to escort them back to Beijing? …… If their mother and daughter go to Beijing alone, let alone bandits, there are so many displaced people at the moment, I am afraid it will be even more dangerous. ”

persuaded this, Fang Hanniang paused slightly.

It seems that something is wrong, if the dart master does not safely escort the patron to the destination, even if the escorted dart master is all sacrificed, then the dart bureau that Peng Lanlan's mother and daughter are looking for will also hand over the news to the patron's family.

Why didn't they hear from the game in the first place?

If she hadn't asked Daddy Peng to find the dart bureau in Beijing to find out the news, she would have almost not known that Peng's mother and Peng Lanlan had been killed!

There was an unbelievable thought that flashed in Fang Hanniang's mind - could it be that Peng Ma and Peng Lanlan did not ask a dart master to escort them and went on the road alone?!

Fang Hanniang gasped.

She couldn't sit still, got up and ordered Qiu Zhu: "Sister Qiu Zhu, you help me to find out, which one of the dart bureaus went to investigate the news of Peng Ma and Peng Lanlan this time?" I want to see the darthead. ”

As one of the big girls in Fuhui Hall, Qiu Zhu is also extremely efficient.

In the afternoon, Fang Hanniang saw the dart.

The dart head obviously has never been to such a person as the Pingguo Mansion, and after coming in, his hands and feet are a little restrained, and he doesn't dare to raise his head.

Fang Hanniang was behind the screen, and after a few simple questions, she politely asked Qiuzhu to seal the gift to the dart head, and sent the dart head away.

Fang Hanniang and Fang Zhiniang sat behind the screen, looked at each other, and were speechless for a long time.

Sure enough, Peng Ma and Peng Lanlan didn't invite a dart master to escort them, and went directly on the road!

Really, I really don't know what to say......
