Chapter 318: Legs Abolished
Pomegranate didn't know the relationship between Su Muling and Xiao Wenxuan in her past and present lives, she only knew that Su Muling was talking to the prince of Ningjun about buying and selling houses in Baihua Lane.
Wei Huai'an accepted Su Muling's benefits and promised to provide shelter for Miss's shop, so it would not be too much to add more people.
Pomegranate is afraid that Su Muling will be able to hide today, but he will not be able to hide tomorrow. She was okay to say, in case she was not around at any moment, Song Mingjie took the opportunity to be ruthless to Miss, then ...... Pomegranate didn't dare to imagine.
"Pomegranate, don't worry. We'll be fine. ”
Worried about pomegranates, Su Muling was completely fearless. She knew that the tile was from the hand of Shadowless. She also knew that Xiao Wenxuan and Wuying were secretly protecting themselves in a corner at the moment.
"It doesn't matter what happens to the slave maid, but if something happens to the young lady here, how can the slave and maid explain to the master? At first, Song Mingjie said that he was borrowing, but now he is shameless and wants to rob it. Hey, if it weren't for the fact that Miss was in the Song family, the slave would really want to beat him up hard......"
Hearing this, Su Muling, who had been listening to pomegranate's nagging, replied with his eyes closed: "Don't take care of me in the future, just beat me." ”
Yes?
"Really?"
The pomegranate jumped up from the ground in surprise, and the splash brought up by the water-stained handkerchief in his hand raised Su Muling's head and face.
Su Muling wiped her face and smiled at her: "Of course, you can beat as much as you want." But only if you can beat it. ”
Song Mingjie is a military attache and has some kung fu. Although Pomegranate can also martial arts, but if she really competes with Song Mingjie one-on-one, Su Muling doesn't dare to guarantee that she can beat it.
"Okay! From now on, if he dares to make trouble in front of the young lady, I will beat him all over the ground to find his teeth. ”
Pomegranate posed on the ground and threw a few more punches. Su Muling couldn't help but laugh when she looked at the pomegranate's cute appearance.
In the middle of the night, there was a noise in Leng's courtyard. Then there were shouts, cries, screams.
"What's going on?" Pomegranate put on her clothes and came to the door, opened the door and looked in the direction of Leng's courtyard. Mama Chen also dressed and came from the lower room.
"I'll take a look, you are optimistic about Miss." Mama Chen took the lantern to listen to the news.
Pomegranate closed the door, came to Su Muling's bed, and sat on the bedside chair. At this time, she has to protect the safety of the young lady.
Su Muling was not curious at all, turned over, and closed his eyes again.
Pomegranate tucked the quilt for her and returned to her chair, trying not to make a sound.
After about half an hour, there was the sound of footsteps in the courtyard. Pomegranate tiptoed to the door and opened the door, and Mama Chen waved at her excitedly.
Pomegranate walked over gently, and Mama Chen whispered a few words in her ear, and Pomegranate almost cried out excitedly.
After scolding Mama Chen away, Pomegranate happily returned to her room.
After plugging in the door, I just wanted to go back to sleep on the kang, only to hear Su Muling ask: "What's wrong?" ”
Pomegranate smiled. "The slave thinks the young lady is asleep."
Su Muling sat up: "You toss like this, who can still sleep?" ”
Pomegranate hurriedly climbed into bed, and Su Muling gave her the quilt.
"Let's talk about it."
Su Muling actually wanted to know what was going on in the cold family's courtyard in the middle of the night, crying and shouting.
Pomegranate whispered the reason in her ear: "I heard that after my uncle left Miss's place, he went outside to drink. Later, he was carried back, but both legs were discounted. The second lady invited a doctor to treat her uncle, and the doctor said that her uncle's leg was shattered and had been scrapped, and now it was only to see if he could save his life. ”
"Miss, it seems that God has eyes, seeing him bullying Miss and avenging Miss. It's a pity that I was late, and before I could beat him, he became like this. ”
When Su Muling heard this, a smile spread across his face.
She knew that Song Mingjie's two legs should be done by Xiao Wenxuan and Wuying.
Song Mingjie dared to ask for her dowry so arrogantly, and wanted to be violent against her. Xiao Wenxuan saw it in his eyes and listened to it, and it was strange that he could spare him.
"I'm afraid I won't have a chance to beat him."
Su Muling lay down again, and with this good news tonight, she could sleep well.
Su Muling slept, and Pomegranate was still pondering her words.
Yes, now that he's lying in bed, it's not up to her to decide when to beat him?
Pomegranate grinned happily, turned off the light, and fell asleep behind Su Muling.
Su Muling fell asleep peacefully, but Leng cried all night.
Early the next morning. Old Mrs. Song and Mrs. Song rushed to all the children and grandchildren of the big house with the news.
Song Mingjie was lying in Leng's room, and he had already fainted in pain several times.
The doctor invited could only use a wooden plank to fix Song Mingjie's two legs, so as not to cause him to cry out at every touch.
After taking pain-relieving and calming and decoction, Song Mingjie, who was already exhausted, finally fell asleep.
Leng cried so much that his eyes were like peaches.
“…… It must be the Dead Star...... Since she entered the door, our Song family has not had a day of peace...... O Mingjie, my poor son...... How will you live in the future......"
Leng's crying was sad, and it was useless for the old lady and the eldest lady to persuade for a long time.
Song Mingjie is now the backbone of the Song family, and the two cousins of the Song family's big house are both old men who sit and eat and wait for death. The eldest master is gone, so they gnaw on the second room.
Now that Song Mingjie has become like this, I am afraid that he will not be able to keep his official position. Without official positions, without a source of livelihood, everyone has to starve.
"Mingjie's leg is a waste. How will you live in the future? The old lady sighed and wiped her tears twice.
"Yes, it's time for the change of seasons, and there are no summer clothes in the big house. There are also a few brothers' teaching gentlemen, and it's time to give people monthly salaries. The eldest lady also added.
"The silver of the rouge gouache that should be issued in our house this month is still in arrears, and the second aunt can't ignore it." The eldest daughter-in-law, Li, also complained.
"Sister-in-law just thinks about the fat powder silver, and the old lady will celebrate her birthday next month, and this silver can't be saved."
……
As soon as the topic opened, the people in the big house began to complain as soon as you mouthed her.
The Leng clan didn't expect that at this time, they would care about this.
Wiping his tears, Leng turned around and faced everyone sad and disappointed:
"You just think about how to live, but you don't think about what Mingjie should do? It turned out that it was our Mingjie who was raising your big house, and now that Mingjie has become like this, we can't control you anymore, you big house, go on your own. ”
"What? Are you going to break up? The emperor raided our home. The big house now has nothing but the house, what do you let us take to stand on our own? Song Minglin, the eldest son of the big house, objected.
"That is, pushing us out now, it is clear that you want to monopolize the family property."
"It's okay to divide the family, and we will also divide half of the property of the second room."
"I heard that the dowry of the second young grandmother shocked the capital at the beginning. If you want to divide the family, you can divide half of the dowry of the second young grandmother. ”
……
"You guys? Are you still going to be shameless? Why do you want my daughter-in-law's dowry? Leng was shocked, she didn't expect these people to be such ungrateful wolves.
"Get out of here...... Get out of here! The Leng clan blasted out like crazy and drove everyone out.
Old Madam Song didn't want things to be too ugly, so she got up and called the people in the big house to retreat first.
Look at their backs. Leng's called the housekeeper and the account room in the second room:
"From now on, no one is allowed to enter the house without my order. From today onwards, the expenses of the big house will be borne by themselves, and we don't have to worry about them anymore. ”
As soon as Leng's order was given, the housekeeper and the bookkeeper hurriedly responded.
There is a moon door between the big room and the second room, which is convenient for people to enter and exit.
The housekeeper led people to pull bricks and mud to seal the door with only two pillars of incense/effort, and also sent two small servants to guard the door. In case the big house pushes away the bricks that have not been solidified.
In Leng's yard, the housekeeper also stepped up patrols, for fear that a dog from the big house would jump over the wall and break in again.
Su Muling listened to Mama Chen nag about these things early in the morning: "...... Wang also sued the young lady in front of the second lady, saying that the young lady knew that her uncle was injured, but she did not go to serve by her side, and also encouraged the second lady to teach the young lady a lesson with the house rules. ”
"I serve him? Hum! He also deserves it? Su Muling stuck a red bead flower on his head.
Song Mingjie is abolished, she is in a good mood, and she rarely wears flowers, and she has changed her personality today.
As soon as she finished cleaning up and dressing up, the grandmother beside the Leng family came over to pass the word and asked Su Muling to come over.
Su Muling knew that the Leng family had listened to Wang's words, and this was to make her angry.
Su Muling tidied up his clothes and went out of the house with pomegranates.
In the courtyard of the Leng family, the subordinates tiptoed lightly, for fear of displeasing the Leng family.
As soon as Su Muling entered the house, he saw Song Mingjie lying on the kang, his legs wrapped like zongzi. His face was pale and he was still in a semi-comatose state.
Su Muling saluted Leng and stood aside.
"Why did the mother call her daughter-in-law?"
Leng sat at the table, looked at her coldly and asked, "Mingming has something to do, do you know it?" ”
Su Muling tugged at the corners of her mouth and smiled secretly: This is coming.
"Yes."
"Mingjie is your husband, he was calculated and injured his leg, you, as his daughter-in-law, don't hurry up to serve, do you have no Mingjie or no Song family in your eyes?"
The mother-in-law was wronged by her daughter-in-law. When I first entered the door, the Song family angered the emperor because of the eldest master's greed for ink, and was arrested and imprisoned. Didn't the Song family put all the blame on me, saying that I was ominous and a mourning star. My grandmother and mother-in-law refused to even see me, and my daughter-in-law refused to drink the tea. For the past two months. I strictly abide by my mother-in-law's teachings and never dare to disturb my mother-in-law. Is it also wrong to do so? ”
"You?"
What a sharp mouth, Leng scolded secretly.
"I said I wouldn't let you come to ask for peace, but Mingjie is here, and you're hurt like this, and you don't come to fulfill your wife's obligations?"
Su Muling sneered: "Mother-in-law is surprised when she says this. Since I married into the Song family, Song Mingjie has never fulfilled his obligations as a husband, and he constantly asks for my dowry money from me. ”
