Chapter 068 Jin Dou is back
Although the shopkeeper did not tell Yuqing that her soap was popular.
But the soap was sold out in two days, and the shopkeeper came to buy it again, which proved that her soap was selling well.
However, Yu Qing didn't have any soap to sell to him, so he could only promise to supply him with soap after the year.
The shopkeeper got her assurances again and again before leaving.
In the evening, the whole family happily had a hearty Chinese New Year's Eve dinner.
After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, Hanshan burned silver frost charcoal, and the family sat together to keep vigil.
I don't know when it snowed outside, which made this Chinese New Year's Eve more festive, and it also lined up more and more warm and happy.
On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, there was a heart-rending cry in Jade Lane, which shocked the surrounding people to be extremely dissatisfied, and they went out to see what was going on in the wind and snow.
It's the first day of the new year, and it's like crying so much, like crying and mourning, isn't it bad luck?
When the cry of the discovery number came from the Jiang family's five-room old house, the neighbors became curious.
Guessing in my heart what happened to their family, someone actually cried on the first day of the new year, and they cried so miserably!
The neighbors stepped on the snow overnight and walked step by step towards the Jiang family's five-room old house.
Everyone met, first worshiped each other, and then gossiped about the cry of the Jiang family's five-room old house.
They all said that they hadn't heard any bad news about the Wu family, so why did they cry.
With a stomach full of question marks, the neighbors came to the old house of the Jiang family's five rooms in groups.
I saw that in the wind and snow, there was a woman in rags, with a disheveled hair and dirty body, sitting on the cold stone brick floor in front of the vermilion door of the fifth room of the Jiang family and crying loudly, and banging the door of the fifth room of the Jiang family while crying.
When a neighbor saw the woman crying sadly, they couldn't help but feel a little pity, and walked up to him and asked, "Who are you, this lady, and why are you crying at the door of the house on the first day of the Lunar New Year?" Beware of people beating you! ”
The woman, who had her back to the crowd, turned her face.
Everyone saw the face of an old woman in her forties, who had been in poverty for many years.
An elderly neighbor's eyes suddenly widened, staring at the mole on the corner of the old woman's mouth in disbelief, and asked uncertainly, "...... Are you a golden bean?
Is it the personal maid Jin Bean who married Mrs. Wu more than 20 years ago? ”
The old woman's eyes burned with rage, she smiled sarcastically, and patted the heavy door behind her: "Is that what the people here say?" ”
The elderly neighbor nodded, "That's what they said." ”
Then he sighed with emotion: "Jin Dou, what crimes have you suffered outside in the past few decades, why have you grown like this?"
If it weren't for the fact that your eyebrows and eyes are still a little similar to when you were younger, and the mole at the corner of your mouth, I wouldn't have recognized you. ”
Many older Jianfang also said that they didn't recognize her at first sight, and it took several glances to recognize who she was.
Jin Dou sneered sadly: "What crime have I suffered? I was sold to Gusu as a prostitute by Mrs. Wu, who was like a snake and scorpion.
Am I not willing to be humiliated? Want to jump off a building and escape? Who knew that he didn't run away and broke his leg? was arrested by the people of the Qinglou.
The bustard crippled himself because he hated me? I couldn't make a lot of money for her, so I tried my best to torture me.
Not only do you not feed me? still treat me as a cow and a horse, can I not be old!
But the people of this house have told you? Am I married away from home? Why didn't they wronged me for eloping with someone like they did when they wronged the eldest prince! ”
When everyone heard this, they all fried the pot.
Although half a month ago, Jiang Mingxuan's wife and children said that Jiang Mingxuan ran away from home because of the Wu family's calculations, but the Jiang family's five rooms just didn't admit it.
Is it justified to say that the public is justified? Mother-in-law says mother-in-law is reasonable? The neighbors don't know who is telling the truth and who is false.
But now Jin Dou, the party who was involved back then, said that Jiang Mingxuan was wronged by the Wu family, so this matter is not far from ten.
The neighbors asked Jin Dou about the truth of the incident back then.
Jin Dou didn't hide it, and told everyone 1510.
It turned out that the Wu family promised a hundred gold beans in order for their two concubines to be able to get ahead in the fifth room? let her slander Jiang Mingxuan for plotting against her, and wanted to use this to force Jiang Mingxuan away.
But afterwards, Wu did not fulfill his promise? Give her 100 gold and let her fly away.
Instead, he sold her to a Qinglou in Gusu? Let her live a life that is worse than death.
Many neighbors shook their heads when they heard this, and they all said that Wu's stepmother was ruthless? could not tolerate the eldest son born to the original spouse.
A few neighbors disagreed: "If Uncle Jiang hadn't gone away in anger back then?" How could the Wu clan succeed in their conspiracy?
If I were him? I will definitely stay and prove my innocence.
So Uncle Jiang ended up dying in a foreign country, leaving orphans and widows to be bullied, all of which he brought on himself! ”
Although the words of these neighbors were mean, they were not unreasonable, and everyone kept silent for a while.
Jin Dou said: "The truth is not like this, the eldest prince ran away from home not because of anger, but because he had no choice but to do so." ”
The crowd asked, "Why did he have to do it?" ”
Jin Dou said: "It's the old man who was confused, believed the words of the Wu family, and decided that the eldest prince was plotting against me, and drove him away!" ”
The neighborhood was in an uproar.
Someone said with hindsight: "Let's just say that Uncle Jiang is not an impulsive person, how can he not clear his grievances and leave the country with the crime, it turns out that he was driven away by his own father." ”
Someone shook his head and sighed: "Alas! With a stepmother, he has a father, and Uncle Jiang has a hard life! ”
Someone suddenly realized: "Old lady Jiang was seriously ill later, so if you want to see Uncle Jiang, I'm afraid he already knew that Uncle Jiang was wronged at that time." ”
Someone said faintly: "If this is the case, it will be a little strange that Old Lady Jiang died." ”
The neighbors suddenly fell silent.
In his heart, he was guessing that after Mrs. Jiang knew the truth, she wanted her eldest son to come back to inherit the family business, but she was killed by Wu's mother and son.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be so coincidental, the old lady Jiang, who had been sick for many years, would pass away suddenly before Jiang Mingxuan's wife and children came back, and there would be no signs before.
After a moment of silence, all the neighbors turned their heads and analyzed the truth of Old Lady Jiang's death.
At this time, the door of the closed five-room old mansion of the Jiang family opened, and the two evil slaves rushed out first, punching and kicking the weak golden bean.
"Where did the crazy woman come from, she dared to run to our house to mourn!"
Some neighbors hurriedly shouted: "Don't fight! She's a golden bean! ”
Jin Dou had already been beaten down the steps, spitting blood from his mouth.
She struggled to get up from the ground, sat down in the snow, and sneered: "The more you tell him that I am a golden bean, the more people will poison me, and only by beating me to death can I kill people!" ”
Jiang Mingxiao then walked out, looking at Jin Dou condescendingly as if he were looking at a dead dog.
sneered and said to the neighbors: "What if she is a golden bean?"
She was bribed and deliberately ran to my door to make trouble, and she deserved to be killed! ”
The neighbors thought of the grievances between his family and Yuqing's family, and no one dared to talk nonsense.
