Chapter 398: Hatred is not for forgiveness
It's been three days, and Xiao Shubai has not been idle for the past three days, trying every means to find the lost silver ticket, and at the same time trying every means to raise the silver for compensation. It can be said that she has already planned to enter all valuable objects, and even plans to sell a few private properties in her hand.
But private property can't be sold in a day or two, no one buys it when it's expensive, and it's reluctant to sell it if it's cheap. only sells jewelry, calligraphy and paintings, and the like, and can't make up a million taels.
But last night, Wen Yan sent someone to her room again and said that although the silver ticket stamped with the heavenly seal of Yanhua Palace was only one million taels, it could not be compared with the usual one million taels. If this kind of thing is placed in someone else's house, it must be offered as a family heirloom.
Therefore, she had to pay attention to this theft, not only to pay one million taels, but to calculate the actual value of the silver ticket.
What is the actual value? How to calculate the actual value of something from Yanhua Palace? That is, she has to give as much as people want.
But she can't make up a million taels, how can there be more?
Don't say she doesn't, and neither does the Xiao family. And this matter can't be known to her brother-in-law, so her mother can only make it up quietly, so how can she make it up? Ye Wen said that this was asking for her life!
Xiao Shubai's face was like ashes, "You just sold me, and I can't take out this silver." ”
This was said to Ye Wenyan, but the old lady of the night was anxious first, and asked at that time: "Xiao Shubai, let me ask you, how can you say that the silver ticket is lost?" Even if you fall off your walk, you should have fallen in our house, these days you almost dig three feet into the ground, you should find it wherever you throw it, right? ”
Xiao Shubai still looked desperate, "I don't know, it's obviously in my sleeve pocket, why is it gone in the blink of an eye?" I couldn't find it. As she spoke, she subconsciously looked at Ye Wenyan.
Ye Wenyan was not happy, "What do you think I'm doing?" I didn't put anything on you, and I didn't approach you that day, so don't doubt me. ”
The old lady also helped her speak: "That's right, the old man saw it clearly that day, the four girls have been sitting in the house, far away from you, and your silver ticket can't rely on her head." But your mother has always been with you, and you have been so close to each other that you have leaned on her lap several times, and you have always held hands. Xiao Shubai, you should know what you have done, right? How long do you want to deny it now? ”
Xiao Shubai gritted his teeth and cursed the old lady ten thousand times in his heart, "You mean, I stole the silver ticket to my mother?" Hum! I really hope that it was given to her, if I gave it to her, she would have taken it out immediately after knowing that it was the silver ticket of Yanhua Palace, and said that she would not have made such a mess as she is now. It's a pity that I didn't even let her see the silver ticket. ”
The old lady's words became more and more mean: "It turns out that you deserve to be a thief, and you don't even know how to subsidize your mother's family, so you just enjoy yourself." ”
Xiao Shubai took a deep breath and kept persuading himself not to entangle with this old lady. Today is to settle things, not to quarrel. She cast her gaze to Ye Wenyan again, and her mind kept recalling what the old lady had just said.
Wen Yan didn't approach her that day and night, and there was no chance to take the silver ticket at all.
Yes, it was indeed like this that day, and the loss of the silver ticket must have nothing to do with Ye Wenyan.
But for some reason, she always felt that this matter was a trap for Ye Wenyan. But when was this set placed?
The maid Jinxiu hurriedly came in from outside, and she didn't have time to salute the old lady, so she walked directly to Xiao Shubai's side, and whispered a few words in her ear, Xiao Shubai's face turned even whiter.
The old lady couldn't hear what she was saying, so she was so anxious that she asked Jun Tao beside her, "What are they talking about?" ”
Jun Tao couldn't hear clearly, so she directly scolded Jinxiu: "There are no rules, whispering in front of the old lady, don't you take the old lady in your eyes?" If you want to say anything, say generously, what else does your master have to do that he can't see? ”
Jinxiu glanced at Jun Tao, completely ignored her shouting, and just said a few words to Xiao Shubai. The old lady was so scratching her heart and liver that she couldn't wait to pounce on her and listen carefully.
But she didn't listen to what she said, but Ye Wenyan heard it clearly.
What Jinxiu said was: "Madam, it's not good, Yunchen from Yanhua Palace went to the Marquis of Ningguo Mansion together, accompanied by the fifth lady of our family." The sentence added later was, "Master Hou didn't go out today, he was in the house!" ”
Xiao Shubai was anxious, "Wen Yan, Wen Yan, I beg you, the Xiao family can't afford this, my mother has no silver, and she can't afford to pay you even if she sells all her belongings." There is also Ning Guohou, he is not my half-brother, he is a concubine, he has not been close to me since he was a child, and it is impossible to help at all. Wen Yan is doing well, let us go, I'll kneel down for you! ”
Xiao Shubai was really scared this time, and he knelt when he said that he would kneel, not only did he kneel, but he also cried to grab the corner of Ye Wenyan's clothes.
"For the sake of our family, Wen Yan will spare me this time, you let me pay it back slowly, and every penny I get in the future will be saved and sent to you, I will definitely be the talker." Wen Yan, you have pity on me, let me go! ”
Syllable!
Ye Wenyan looked at Xiao Shubai, and threw it over with an ear scraper.
This slap was really merciless, and with all his strength, he hit Xiao Shubai on the ground several times, half of his face was swollen all of a sudden, and one of his teeth fell out.
"Madame!" Jinxiu screamed and rushed forward, and at the same time turned back to ask Ye Wenyan, "Is she your elder, how can you say that you will fight?" Is there any family law in this family? ”
After saying this, the pendant who had been standing behind Ye Wenyan stepped forward and grabbed the collar of the splendid shirt and slapped ~ pop ~ pop ~ slap and fanned wildly. I had to slap it more than ten or twenty times, until I beat Jinxiu so much that my face was swollen into a pig's head, and I couldn't speak anymore, so I gave up. Then I heard Shen'er say: "Since you talk about family law, there is no rule in that family law for slaves to question their masters." These few bars are a lesson for you, the grievances between the masters are resolved by the masters themselves, if you talk about it again, I will break your mouth of teeth next time. Did you hear me clearly! ”
Shen'er's momentum directly pressed the splendid to cry, and he didn't dare to cry, but nodded subconsciously, indicating that he heard clearly.
Not only was Jinxiu suppressed, but Xiao Shubai was also suppressed, and even she felt that compared to Shen'er's violence, it was much better for Ye Wenyan to only slap her.
It's just that this slap was really hard, she looked at the tooth she lost on the ground, she wanted to pick it up, but she didn't dare to pick it up.
"Xiao Shubai, please let you go?" Ye Wenyan finally spoke again, "But when you stuffed the night red makeup into my wedding sedan chair, why didn't you plan to let me go?" You weren't as quiet as you are now. ”
"I was wrong! I was really wrong! Xiao Shubai couldn't care about her face anymore, she was now thinking that Lian Shi Yunchen had gone to the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion, and her mind was full of the expression of her brother-in-law when he heard about these things. She was really panicked, "Wen Yan, I apologize, I'll kowtow to you." Don't worry about the past, I really know it's wrong. ”
"Spread your hands out of my hands!" Ye Wenyan glanced at the hand that Xiao Shubai had grabbed, his eyes were full of disgust, "If apologies are useful, there is no such thing as revenge in this world." Xiao Shubai, listen to me, revenge is for revenge, not forgiveness, and the eighteen layers of hell under your feet are also used for judgment and punishment, not for washing away your sins. Again, spread your hands, or I'll chop off your blood-stained paws!" ”
Xiao Shubai was so frightened that he immediately took his hand back.
Ye Wenyan nodded with satisfaction, "Don't be wronged, this is all retribution." ”
And at this moment, Mu Shi came, just walked to the door, and just heard Ye Wenyan say that she had stuffed Ye Hong's makeup into her wedding sedan chair.
Mu Shi took a deep breath, and then slowly exhaled it, and her emotions surged several times, but she suppressed them.
"Retribution indeed." She said this, and then pulled Ye Qingmei into the house and sat next to Ye Wenyan.
The old lady looked at this scene and felt very uncomfortable, obviously it was morning and dusk, but she didn't say hello to her when she entered the house one by one, she didn't even look at her, she was just busy with her own work, is her sense of presence in this family too low?
Thinking like this in her heart, she wanted to say it, but Jun Tao gently pulled her, shook her head slightly, and motioned her not to speak.
The old lady also knew that she was too anxious, and today was the night of Wen Yan! Vinegar Slip Literature Fastest - Released! Cleaning up Xiao Shubai, it's none of her business, she just watches the play, what is she mixed with? This Xiao Shubai used to stutter because the second son had to rely on the support of the Marquis of Ningguo's mansion, so that the old man would not drive the second son out of the house without hesitation.
But now that the old man is dead, and this family belongs to her second son, what are they afraid of?
In this way, the role of Xiao Shubai and Ning Guohou Mansion is not very large, not to mention that Xiao Shubai has no useful children, which is not only useless, but also a burden.
She really hopes that Ye Wenyan will work hard again and drive Xiao Shubai out of the house directly, so that her son can marry a new daughter-in-law and bring back the best daughter. You don't need to have an unequal wife, just a wife, that's good.
The old lady thought a lot, even including Chang Xue Qiao and a commoner, except for being good-looking, she hardly had any background. After such a person enters the house, she will definitely obey her orders, and she will listen to whatever she says, so that she can handle it very well.
has such a daughter-in-law under his hands, which is much stronger than Xiao Shubai, who is from a noble family.
Ye Wenyan sealed his head, saying that it was impossible to forgive Xiao Shubai, and Xiao Shubai also understood that this road would not work.
But if this doesn't work, she has to think of another way, she covered her head and tried to think about it, but she couldn't figure it out.
