Chapter 237: The Storm Rises Again
There was a lot of talk about the lively people.
"What's going on?" Wei Huai'an grabbed someone and asked.
"This cloth village caught fire in the middle of the night, and everything inside burned out."
"What about the people inside?" Wei Huai'an frowned.
"The person is fine, he was rescued."
Wei Huai'an saw from a distance that Huang Weihai brought people over, and Baiweilou didn't go, so he turned around and went home.
As soon as I entered the hospital, I saw Chen Sheng and Pomegranate coming out of the room.
"You two come in." Wei Huai'an quickly stepped into the hall.
Su Muling, who had just gotten up, heard Wei Huai'an's voice upstairs, and also got dressed and went downstairs.
"Close the door." Wei Huai'an commanded, and Chen Sheng turned around and closed the door.
"The fire in Yunshang Cloth Village was put by the two of you." Wei Huai'an sat down, his face dark.
Su Muling, who had just come downstairs, paused, and then took a few steps to stare at the pomegranate: "You set the fire?" ”
This girl is getting bolder and bolder, shouldn't Ming'er go and kill someone? Su Muling's brows furrowed slightly.
Pomegranate glanced at Chen Sheng, who bowed his head and was silent, and said confidently:
"We only rule others the way they do. Wu Meiniang went to our house to set fire, but was acquitted. They are the protectors of the officials. Since being an official does not make decisions for the people, then I have to punish the evil and promote the good myself. ”
Su Muling never knew that the pomegranate, who didn't know a few words, could say such a set of idioms and allusions, and laughed angrily.
"You really set it on fire? What about people? Did you hurt anyone? ”
Pomegranate shook her head: "That's not true, we hid nearby, and when the people were stunned, they were carried out to the street." But everything in the shop burned down. ”
After Pomegranate finished speaking, he raised his eyes and peeked at Wei Huai'an, but he couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.
"Set fire to the shop, whose idea is it for the two of you?" Wei Huai'an asked.
"It's me."
"It's me."
Chen Sheng and Pomegranate spoke in unison.
"It's me, Chen Sheng listens to me." Pomegranate took a step forward to block Chen Sheng very responsibly.
Chen Sheng scooped her up, turned around and knelt down on one knee towards Wei Huai'an.
"Pomegranate is my daughter-in-law, if the son wants to blame, blame me."
"I did it, no wonder you. Shizi, the idea was thought of by me, and I pulled Chen Sheng to do it, I am the mastermind, and if you want to punish me, you will punish me. ”
"Pomegranate ......"
"Shut up!"
Two people fight in order not to let the other be punished.
"Did I say I'm going to be punished?" The corners of Wei Huai'an's mouth curled.
Chen Sheng and Pomegranate were stunned, what's the situation?
"Forget it this time. Remember: ask for advice before you do anything next time, and don't assume that I don't exist. ”
Wei Huai'an's tone was stern.
Pomegranate and Chen Sheng bowed their heads and said yes.
"However, the Wu family is too rampant, it's time to teach a lesson." Wei Huai'an got up and went back to the house after speaking.
Su Muling glared at his back: With such a master, it is not surprising that the people below kill people and set fires.
Look back at the little couple who "share the suffering": "You ......"
Su Muling wanted to teach them a few words, but thinking that the Wu family also deserved it, she opened her mouth but became: "Go." ”
"Hee-hee, miss, aren't you angry? I tell you, last night when we went......"
Seeing that Su Muling was not pursuing it, Pomegranate hurriedly came over and helped her upstairs, and proudly talked about the process of setting the fire.
Su Muling glanced downstairs, and Sister-in-law Lin, who was doing rough work in the yard, was walking here carrying a pot of hot water.
Su Muling warned in a low voice: "Keep your mouth shut, don't forget, this courtyard is not just your own people." ”
Pomegranate closed her mouth and nodded obediently.
Before, there were only their own people on Taoyuan Street. I am not afraid that outsiders will listen to anything. But now there is a cook and two rough mothers-in-law in the yard. Don't you have to be cautious when you talk again?
Wu's cloth village was burned clean by a fire, and Mr. Wu was so angry that he almost turned his back on it, and invited a doctor to come and see it, saying that it was a recurrence of an old disease that had to be taken care of for a while.
Wu Meiniang, who had just been released from the yamen, gritted her teeth and scolded hatefully: "It must be the person surnamed Wei who saw that I was released and sincerely retaliated." ”
"The surname is Wei, I, Wu Meiniang, can't spare you!" Wu Meiniang stared at the case for fear of the case.
"Madam, when the master sent the letter to Lord Huang, he also brought a message to Mrs., asking the little escort Mrs. to hurry back to Ningguo Mansion and not cause more trouble."
A house slave beside Zhou Huanjun bowed his head and bowed respectfully to warn.
"Presumptuous, when will it be your turn to be a minion to teach Mrs. Ben a lesson? Go back now and tell your lordship, that Mrs. Ben is frightened in the yamen cell, and that she will be raised here for a few days before going back. ”
Wu Meiniang squinted at the slave, and the anger on her face escalated.
She knew that Zhou Huanjun was reluctant to give her up, although she wrote a letter of resignation in a fit of anger, but she was arrested, Zhou Huanjun did not obediently send someone to rescue her, the old shop at home was burned, Wu Chun was injured, the old old disease of the old man recurred, Wu Meiniang could not leave at this time. For Zhou Huanjun, she is confident that she can still handle it.
The house slave is the old man next to Zhou Huanjun, and he can see that Zhou Huanjun is dissatisfied with what Wu Meiniang did, and when he comes, Zhou Huanjun tells him to do it:
"Madam, the little one is soft-spoken, but when the little one came, the master told me that he would take Mrs. back. Madam, the little one has already prepared the carriage and horses, Madame, please go back. "Love the Book House
The old slave is respectful on the surface, but his words are unquestionable. Wu Meiniang was confronted by Zhou Huanjun's old slave in public, and she was even more angry, throwing out the teacup in her hand and smashing it on the person.
"I think you're bold enough to have no master in your eyes. Come, get him out of here. ”
The people of the Wu family knew that this old slave was someone next to Lord Zhou, and they dared to move, so they all bowed their heads and pretended to be dead.
Wu Meiniang saw that her mother's family was also instructed not to move, and shouted loudly with a pale face:
"You don't want to stay in the Wu family, why don't you do it quickly?"
Seeing Wu Meiniang's anger, the Wu family stepped forward in cringe and pulled Zhou Huanjun's house slave out of the house:
"Madam, the old slave advises you to go back with the old slave. so as not to regret it later. The old slave followed Zhou Huanjun for decades, and finally persuaded him.
"Get me out." Wu Meiniang is already hysterical.
The old slave was driven away, Wu Meiniang sat on a chair, and Wu Chun was carried in a soft sedan chair.
"Eldest sister, you shouldn't!"
Wu Chun had just heard the news here, endured the pain, and came over to persuade him.
"Daddy is sick. You are like this again, if I don't preside over the overall situation again, will our Wu family be bullied by a foreigner? Wu Meiniang was not convinced.
"Eldest sister, what do you want?"
Wu Meiniang stood up, walked back and forth on the ground a few times, and stopped to look at Wu Chun.
"You all go down." Wu Meiniang commanded.
The people bowed their heads and went down.
Wu Meiniang walked to the door, glanced out, and closed the door......
******
During the Double Ninth Festival, Tiangu Town, like the capital, also has the habit of traveling to enjoy the scenery, climbing high and watching chrysanthemums, planting dogwoods all over the place, eating Chongyang cakes, and drinking chrysanthemum wine.
On this day, Xiangshan, the only mountain in Tiangu Town, became the first place for everyone to climb high and overlook.
Xiangshan is not high, and the mountain is full of fruit trees. In the autumn ripening season, the fragrance of flowers and fruits spreads all over the mountains and forests.
Before the time came, the foot of Xiangshan was already full of cars and people.
Wei Huai'an and Su Muling were not exempt, and they got off the car at the foot of the mountain.
Wei Huai'an helped Su Muling, who was dressed in red and wearing a red veil, to walk slowly up the mountain. The two of them picked a few flowers at one time, and picked a wild fruit at the other. Wei Huai'an also pointed to the scenery in the distance from time to time, and the two of them sighed again.
Xichun followed not far away with a food box, but he didn't see Pomegranate and Chen Sheng.
Xiangshan really lives up to its name, and the fragrance of the moving scene hits people. Su Muling and Wei Huai'an took a look and soon came to the mountainside.
Su Muling stopped and wiped the sweat on his head with a handkerchief. Wei Huai'an looked around, pointed to the pavilion not far in front and suggested, "Let's go to the front pavilion to rest for a while." ”
Su Muling nodded and followed Wei Huai'an.
Sitting in the pavilion and looking at the picturesque street scene down the hill is exhausting.
Xichun put down the food box in his hand and took out a few small snacks and chongyang cakes from it.
"Miss eat some, and climb the mountain for a while." Su Muling took a piece of Chongyang cake, carefully lifted the veil on his face, and put it in his mouth. Well, the craftsmanship of Xichun is really good. Xichun took out a teapot from the food box again, and when he took the cup, his hand slipped, and the cup didn't hold it, and it fell to the ground and shattered.
"Oops! What can I do? The teacup shattered. Xichun looked at Su Muling with some panic.
Su Muling glanced at her and didn't speak.
Seeing this, Wei Huaian comforted Xichun: "It doesn't matter, I'll go and get the set in the car." You and Miss are here to take a look at the scenery first, and I'll come when I go. ”
"I'm sorry for you." Xichun breathed a sigh of relief.
Wei Huai'an left, and Su Muling couldn't sit still after eating two pieces of dim sum. Looking at a few pomegranate trees in the distance, the fiery red pomegranates on the trees are particularly eye-catching.
Su Muling smiled, patted the residue of the dim sum in his hand and walked under the tree.
Xichun hurriedly stepped forward and stopped: "Miss, Childe told us to wait here, Miss don't run around." lest the son come back and find us in vain. ”
When Su Muling heard this, he stopped and sighed in a low voice: "It's a pity! "Big red pomegranates.
"Miss wants to eat pomegranates, and when Childe comes back, let Childe pick them."
Xichun persuaded Su Muling to come back and sit down in the pavilion again. The two of them looked around boredly. It's a remote place, with only a few people passing by occasionally.
Xi Chundong looked around, and his two eyes kept searching in the woods. After another half an hour, Xichun's eyes lit up, and he bent down with some excitement and said to Su Muling:
"Miss, there are a few orange trees over there, the slave maid will pick a few oranges for Miss to quench her thirst."
Su Muling blocked the sunlight with a handkerchief, glanced in the direction that Xichun pointed to her, and nodded: "Go ahead." ”
Xichun told Su Muling again: "Miss, I'll go." ”
Su Muling nodded and smiled at her.
Xichun then clenched his lips and walked away without looking back.
Xichun had just walked away when two figures flashed out from behind the two trees near the pavilion.
One of the lean short men walked up to Su Muling, and asked politely with both hands, "Miss, is it Su Muling, the wife of Master Wei of Baiwei Building?" ”
Su Muling stood up and stared at him for a moment and replied, "Exactly, who are you?" ”
"Wei Gongzi can't come because of something, let us take you back first."
"Who are you? I ......" Before Su Muling finished speaking, the tall man behind her suddenly slashed at her neck with a knife, and Su Muling's legs were weak and she fainted to the ground.
The short man looked around cautiously, took out a rope from his arms to trap Su Muling, gagged her mouth with rags, took out the sack that had been prepared, and covered Su Muling whole.
"Quick."
As soon as the little man spoke, the big man picked up the bag and carried it on his shoulder, and the two chose a remote path and quickly descended the mountain.
