Chapter 123: The Girl
Lin Yingyue silently poured a cup of tea and drank it silently.
Pink Butterfly smiled, "As for that, go outside to be a serious couple." Hehe...... grandma, how can anyone like a woman who can't give birth to a son? What can you be serious? Sooner or later, you will have to take a concubine. So why am I suffering? The days of waiting for the house are just to go outside and share a poor and shabby stinky man with other women. ”
Lin Yingyue smiled, "Then according to you, what do you want?" ”
Pink Butterfly looked serious and replied: "Now, I only hope that grandma can give birth to sons, and it is best to have a few more, so as to sit firmly in the position of the housewife." In the future, I will not serve the prince, I will not let my grandmother be jealous, I will serve my grandmother alone with all my heart, and I will be content with my grandmother to enjoy a lifetime of glory and wealth. ”
Lin Yingyue said with a smile: "It's very good, I love to listen to it, but it's not very realistic." ”
Pink Butterfly hurriedly said: "Grandma, I'm telling the truth." ”
Lin Yingyue shook her head, "I'm not suspicious of you. Perhaps, you are indeed sincere now, but the red face is easy to grow old, the time is easy to pass away, and the days of being a widow alone are too lonely. ”
"Grandma'......"
"You're right." Lin Yingyue raised her hand to interrupt her and continued: "Go outside, you won't be able to find any good people." In this life, I can only stay in Houfu and follow me. ”
Pink Butterfly hurriedly said: "Grandma, you are a capable person, I will obey you." ”
Lin Yingyue shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Stupid." If a woman is capable, it means that the environment around her is harsh, forcing her to grow up. And the kind of woman who was loved by her parents when she was young, who was supported by her mother's family when she married, respected by her mother-in-law's family, and whose husband was single-minded, does not need to be capable. ”
Pink Butterfly was stunned when she heard this.
It reminded me of a sad past, and my eyes were slightly red, "Grandma is much better than us." I ......, my family couldn't afford to eat, and my mother was sold by my father. I was beaten all day long, and then I was sold like my mother. To tell you the truth, among the people I have met in this life, only my grandmother is the best ...... to me."
"Don't cry." Lin Yingyue said with a smile: "When others saw it, they thought I beat you." ”
Pink Butterfly suddenly burst into tears and laughed, and said angrily: "Grandma, you are really, you make people cry well." He took out a handkerchief, wiped his tears, and took a sip of tea, "You can reward me with something that shocks me when I turn around, otherwise I won't follow." ”
Lin Yingyue said with a smile: "Okay, go back and let the prince reward you." ”
Pink Butterfly was stunned, "Grandma, what do you mean, or ......, let the slave maid serve the prince?" ”
"Hmm." Lin Yingyue nodded in response, and said lightly: "I said, instead of others competing for favor, it is better for you to get some insurance, so I will try my best to arrange it." ”
At the bottom of my heart, a trace of pain suddenly appeared.
It's just that she didn't want Fan Die to see through her emotions, so she hurriedly said: "Besides, you are sensible, and I don't hate you." It's just that this matter is not in a hurry for now, and it will come back to see the situation. Anyway, no matter whether you serve the prince or not, as long as you are loyal to me, I will give you a lifetime of grace and honor. ”
Pink Butterfly got up and blessed and said gratefully: "Slave and maid thank grandma for her grace." ”
She was telling the truth.
If Lin Yingyue hadn't bought her from the Lin family and brought her to Houfu, she would have ridden 10,000 pillows in the Qinglou a long time ago. Wouldn't it be nice to have those days of send-off? There is nothing left that is exploited by the old bustard, and when you are old and decrepit, you will only be left with a broken mat and swept away.
Nabid, who enjoys all the glory and wealth by Lin Yingyue's side, is not beaten and scolded. How many young ladies from small families and aunts from large families are not as comfortable as she is now.
So, be blessed.
"Grandma!" Tao Xian and Ye Xian led the girls and came back in a hurry.
Lin Yingyue put away her floating sad thoughts.
She stared and asked, "How's it going?" What good things have you found? ”
Tao Xian wore a cherry-colored dress, holding a Feiyun bun, taking advantage of the snow-white goose egg face, her complexion was very good, and she looked extremely neat. She cleared her throat and said, "In addition to the account books, I also found three gold bars, five hundred taels of silver, and forbidden things such as flower dew from the emperor in the private cabinet of Zhang's mother's kitchen, several things. ”
Lin Yingyue suddenly smiled, stroked her palms and said, "This is good, I have to check." ”
Huo Yan strode in from outside, and as soon as he arrived at the courtyard, he saw a group of people, and thought that there was something wrong with Lin Yingyue's fetal image. was startled at first, and then saw her sitting in the chair with a ruddy face, and laughing again, before putting her heart back.
Lin Yingyue waved everyone away, raised her head and said with a smile: "It just so happened that the prince came back, let me be lazy." He turned his head and glanced at Peach Fairy, "You come, I'll rest for a while." ”
Taoxian shook all the things about Zhang's mother in the kitchen in one go.
Huo Yan listened, frowned, and said, "What's the matter?" Since Zhang's mother is not good, and the evidence is conclusive, she quickly called someone to get rid of her, what are you talking about? ”
"Lord Shizi, listen to me." Lin Yingyue got up and pulled him into the back room to speak, "Just now, I heard Mrs. Liu talk about Mother Zhang. Because he is the eldest lady's companion, he has done a lot of things for the eldest lady. I think ......, after so many years, there may be a lot of yin and selfishness mixed in it. ”
Huo Yan's face changed suddenly, and the clouds were thick.
Lin Yingyue was afraid that he would be angry, so she persuaded: "This is just my conjecture. After all, Zhang's mother has been in charge of the kitchen for so many years, maybe there will be some old things mixed in, which are related to your mother. Now that the eldest lady is being feared by the Hou Ye and has lost her power, it is a good time to turn her old bottom up. To put it inappropriately, Mother Zhang has nothing to do with your mother's death, and it has to be related this time. ”
Huo Yan's face gradually turned cold.
After a while, another heart was eagerly boiling, grabbed Lin Yingyue's hand, and said with a burning gaze: "Yingyue, except for you, no one can think so carefully and so properly for me!" Husband and wife don't say thank you, I remember. ”
"Look at you, so solemn." Lin Yingyue hugged his waist, pressed against his chest, and smiled softly, "You and I are husband and wife, why bother to see outside?" Whatever I can think for you, I will think for you, don't worry. ”
Huo Yan only felt that the hairs all over her body were smoothed by her, hugged her, and didn't want to say a word comfortably.
Lin Yingyue hugged for a while, let go and said, "It's just right for you to come back." It's inconvenient for me to be pregnant, and it's not appropriate to quarrel with people loudly, so I'm sorry for you. Zhang's mother's affairs will be handed over to you, I'm lazy, you feel sorry for the child. ”
"Silly girl." Seeing her so cautious, Huo Yan was distressed and laughed angrily, "Doesn't the master feel sorry for you?" Without a mother, where is the child? Okay, you've got a charter for everything, just rest. Lord, I will do it beautifully and brightly, so that the eldest grandmother is satisfied. ”
Lin Yingyue pursed her lips and smiled, "Okay, I'll wait to see you." ”
Huo Yan left her to sit down, went out by herself, and then went to the small kitchen resolutely. He came forward, and it was a hundred times more convenient than Lin Yingyue, and no one dared to disagree.
What's more, the evidence of Zhang's mother's serious crimes has been conclusive, how can she deny it?
Huo Yan said coldly: "This account book has a total deficit of 1,863 taels of silver, and it is only for the past few months this year, and it must be a big hole in the past year!" As for the extra gold bars, silver, royal flower dew, and other forbidden things, it is even more difficult to elaborate. ”
Mother Zhang suddenly stabbed such a big Louzi, and then she was shocked by Huo Yan's loud voice, she would have been stupid for a long time.
The people around who had a holiday with Zhang's mother spoke one after another.
What Zhang's mother arranged relatives in the kitchen, what Zhang's mother cut corners when cooking, and what Zhang's mother's son molested a certain girl, causing the girl to commit suicide by throwing herself into a well, and there are all kinds of crimes.
"You, you ......" Zhang's mother was so frightened that her body went weak and sat on the ground.
Huo Yan was not in a hurry to finalize the case, but ordered, "Someone!" Tie up Zhang's mother and beat her hard! Let her confess all the bad things she has done over the years! If you miss a piece, you are the only one who asks! ”
Poor Zhang's mother was first beaten with 20 boards, her whole body was paralyzed, and then she was tortured by bamboo sticks and nail, and she fainted to death in pain! However, Huo Yan didn't let her faint, let people wake up with a bucket of cold water, and continued to torture, telling Zhang's mother to survive and not to die, howling: "I'll move!" I'll recruit them all! ”
Now, there are too many beans poured into the bamboo tube.
It's a pity that Huo Yan is not interested in listening to those bits and pieces. Got rid of the person, directly stepped forward and kicked Zhang's mother, squatted down and whispered: "Back then, my mother was sick in bed, and the people in the kitchen decocted medicine every day. Ye remembers, you were doing a big steward in the kitchen at that time, but what do you remember? If you remember, the master will give you a happy reward for a whole corpse, and spare the lives of your children and grandchildren! ”
Zhang's mother was covered in blood and flesh, sweat dripping, and muttered in despair, "Remember, remember......" She is in pain now, she only wants to die quickly, and she only wants not to affect her children and grandchildren.
So, he shook off the eldest lady's private conspiracy back then.
Even if Huo Yan had already suspected and guessed, but today when he heard Zhang's mother say it herself, and then remembered that his mother died in vain, he still couldn't help but hate his eyes red! He used the only remaining reason to let Zhang's mother breathe a sigh of relief, and instructed his subordinates to immediately invite Zhennanhou to come over. Then in front of his father, he scolded Zhang's mother, "Say! Again, to be clear. ”
Mother Zhang was already angry, and gasped: "Back then, ......, Mrs. Bai gave birth to two sons, both of whom were very capable, how could the eldest lady not be jealous?" Therefore, the eldest lady thought of it, so that the eldest son and the eldest grandmother had an accident and fell off the cliff and died! And when Mrs. Bai heard about the death of her eldest son and daughter-in-law, she was naturally sad......"
Huo Yan's eyes burned red, and he gritted his teeth and roared, "Go on!" ”
Mother Zhang coughed and spurted out a cloud of blood foam, "Madame Bai was sad and needed to recuperate, so the eldest lady asked me to put something in the decoction, so that Madame Bai was in a trance every day, and she couldn't eat the medicine, and finally died." After that, the eldest lady deliberately raised the prince to be a gentleman, and then let the prince marry the Su family, only waiting for the Su family to give birth to a son, the Su family ......, and completely controlled the entire Zhennan Hou Mansion. ”
