Chapter 31 What can be done now?
Xi Hongdou was thinking about Xiao Zhi, and Xiao Zhi on the other side was squatting in prison.
Not only Xiao Zhi alone, but dozens of people from all over the family were imprisoned. Some people say that their family and King Xiang, who made a rebellion and rebellion, secretly colluded, but he didn't know whether there was collusion or not, and even his father himself didn't know, it was obvious that this was a frame-up, but unfortunately the emperor is still angry, and all the people who pleaded for mercy were deflated, not to mention the overturning of the case.
Master Xiao is almost fifty years old this year, and he can be regarded as living almost, but the disaster to his wife and children really makes him anxious, and he has suffered an injustice and his family is going to die together, and he can't accept it no matter what.
"Master, just tell you the truth, did you participate in the rebellion?" Mrs. Xiao frowned and asked, you have to die clearly, right?
Old Man Xiao snorted coldly: "If I participate, I will be the eighth calf of the king!" "How many years has he been a waiter in the household department, and it is estimated that there are many people with red eyes, and it is not surprising that he deducts the basin.
Mrs. Xiao rolled her eyes and said, "If you rebel and get your head cut off, it's worth it, if you don't do anything, you'll have to die with the wind...... "It's not worth dying."
Mrs. Xiao is old, and the prison is dark and damp, knocking on the old cold leg and saying: "The old man just left, and this kind of thing happened to the Xiao family, which is really unfortunate for the family." β
Old Man Xiao said abruptly: "Let my mother be wronged." "My mother is complaining about him.
Mrs. Tai was speechless: "Okay, it's useless to say this at this time, I'm alive enough anyway, I don't care if you two die or not, I'm blind to my eldest grandson, three generations of single transmission, and I can't pass it on in this generation...... "The grandson's life is not good, and he couldn't marry his daughter-in-law and give birth to a great-grandson earlier, I originally felt that it was a pity, but now I look at it, even if I give birth, I will be affected now."
Xiao Zhi sat in a corner of the cell, something happened at home a few days after he returned to Kyoto City, and no news could be spread, let alone report safety to Xi Hongdou, now that he is in prison, if the family does not commit any more crimes, he will be beheaded with the remnants of King Xiang after the autumn, and he doesn't know what Xi Hongdou will think of him, thinking that he and I are a negative man? Disappear after proposing?
Mrs. Xiao looked at her son so gloomy, and sighed: "I finally met someone who is harder than you." She was worried at first that Xi Hongdou and Xiao Zhi did not match, in case Xiao Zhike died again, her son would also die, and now look, Xi Hongdou's life is even harder than her son.
Xiao Zhi said: "I don't believe in Kefuke's wife, I'm just worried, if I really die, I'm afraid she won't be able to live well." "At that time, some people will say that Xi Hongdou Kefu, how will Xi Hongdou survive in the future?
Master Xiao said: "Don't talk about your marriage, so as not to disturb other girls." "It's one less dead now.
Xiao Zhi was silent, remembering that he had said that he would let Xi Hongdou live a rich life with him, but now, the slap in the face is really crackling.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Yunzhou City here is the time of grain harvest again, the three crops of rice a year make Hexi Prefecture rich, the caravans to transport goods to all parts of Yanyun one after another, the boats on the waterways are also lined up waiting to load, everywhere you can see a prosperous scene.
Xi Hongdou waited for half a month, and finally came to the day agreed with Yao San, and when he came to the Chamber of Commerce to find someone, he saw Yao San scolding, as if the goods were not pretending correctly, but when he saw Xi Hongdou coming, he shut up first.
Yao San walked over, took a piece of paper, and said, "The person you want to inquire about is a little prickly. β
Xi Hongdou opened the paper, and the news that the Xiao family was imprisoned for implication in the rebellion was written on it, which shocked her.
"What do you have to do with this surnamed Xiao?" Yao San is not a local, but he will come here every time he goes shopping, so he is not familiar with Xiao Zhi's affairs.
Xi Hongdou shook his head: "Just ask, thank you Third Brother Yao." Then she turned around and left, rebellion is not a small crime, and now she has to hurry home, and this matter must be said.
hurriedly returned home, Xi Hongdou whispered to Aunt Xi about it first, Aunt Xi almost fainted on the spot, and finally told her daughter a good family matter, and now her fiancΓ© is also involved in a rebellion, this is her life!
Xi Hongdou hurriedly helped the person up, and Aunt Xi said, "Come back to your father!" "In the past, she was in charge of the small things in the family, and her husband was in charge of the big things, but there have been no major things in the family for so many years. Now she really can't make up her mind, so she can only talk to her husband about it!
Xi Hongdou hurriedly went to the field to find someone, and when he saw that his brother and sister-in-law were also there, he found everyone back together.
Sister-in-law Xi felt that the atmosphere was not good, and she thought that the thing that Xi Hongdou was most worried about these days was Xiao Zhi's matter, and she felt that it might be related to Xiao Zhi.
Everyone sat around the room, and Daddy Xi asked, "What's the matter?" Let's talk about it! "I'm going to die in a hurry.
Xi Hongdou told the news he had inquired about, and when everyone heard it, they were all shocked.
Second sister-in-law Xi hurriedly said: "If it is related to rebellion, wouldn't everyone have to die?" β
Xi Lin hurriedly asked Xi's second sister-in-law not to say such a scary, but still said: "Although it is just a marriage, I don't know if it will be implicated. β
Aunt Xi was a little anxious, if she hadn't had a good face and had to make everyone known, there would have been such a situation.
Xi Hongdou said at this time: "After all, we are married, and I don't want to affect our family, so I will write a document to sever the relationship, if something really happens in the future, I can't affect everyone to die." As he spoke, he hurried to find a pen and paper.
"You come back first!" Daddy Xi called the person back and said, "Think of another way." "A good girl wants to cut off relations with her family, and it's a joke to say it.
Xi Hongdou sat back, but still said, "Is there any other way?" "Rebellion is not a small crime......
Daddy Xi thought about it, he was just an ordinary ordinary person who couldn't be ordinary anymore, and he would be scared to death when the word rebellion came out of his mouth, not to mention what else could he do!
The family sat for a long time and didn't think of any way, and finally sister-in-law Xi said: "There is no way to think about it, I want to see it, or I will tell Hongdou about a family matter, when someone really comes, let's say that we have not made a relationship with the Xiao family." β
Aunt Xi sighed: "The whole village knows that we have a marriage, can we deceive it?" What's more, a good family affair is here, and suddenly talk about other relatives, who can't think too much? "It's even more troublesome then.
"Alright, let's eat first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." Father Xi said, when the time comes, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth.
The family ate the same taste of chewing wax for dinner, and everyone's appetite was not very good, and the next day, Xi Hongdou still went to his own land as usual, but his heart was very messy.
She didn't believe Kefu before, but now she ...... She has to suspect that she is so unlucky because she is married......
Sister-in-law Xi went to the county seat to deliver goods, and when she passed by the Han family's grocery store, she paused, and a thought flashed in her mind, and then she hesitated for a moment and entered the Han family's grocery store.
Han Yushu was looking at the book, it seemed that people put down the book first to say hello, and when they saw that it was Sister-in-law Xi, her face was a little embarrassed, Sister-in-law Xi intended to match him and Xi Hongdou, but unfortunately, he didn't seize the opportunity.
Sister-in-law Xi could see that Han Yushu was very upset about missing Xi Hongdou, and pretended to buy something when she entered the door.
"This red bean is also a bitter life, I see her family business, and she is going to soak in soup again." After Sister-in-law Xi finished speaking, she secretly glanced at Han Yushu, wanting to see what Han Yushu's reaction was.
Han Yushu heard Sister-in-law Xi say this, so he asked, "Why do you want to make soup again?" There was also concern on his face.
Sister-in-law Xi saw that Han Yushu's reaction was what she wanted, so she continued: "The young master of the Xiao family doesn't know where he went, he said that he was going back to his hometown for the funeral, and he came back in a month, but now it's almost three months, and the person is gone!" β
Han Yushu was very surprised, so he said, "There has been no news for three months? β
"If there is, Hongdou can't be uncomfortable and anxious, and I don't know if this person is dead or alive, but if he is still alive, why don't he send a letter?!" Sister-in-law Xi said.
According to Sister-in-law Xi's idea, she wants to incite Han Yushu to take on a big responsibility at this time, as long as Han Yushu goes to propose marriage at this time, the in-laws of the family will definitely nod, and when Hongdou marries Han Yushu, it will have nothing to do with Xiao Zhi. If she can make a match for this, it will be a good thing for everyone, and her in-laws should not be able to really bear to watch her sister-in-law draw a line with her own family.
Han Yushu frowned, he knew what Xiao Zhi was from, and he didn't do the right thing before, but he could also see that Xiao Zhi was really a gentleman like he thought, especially if he didn't believe in Kefu's courage to propose marriage, no matter how he looked at it, he had a friendship with Xi Hongdou, and it was impossible to really just leave and be a negative man.
Sister-in-law Xi saw that Han Yushu had fallen into thought, so she said: "My mother-in-law is thinking about finding a good family for Hongdou again." Although the meaning she wanted to express was already very explicit, but now this juncture does not allow her to be hazy anymore, and it is only serious to let Han Yushu marry Xi Hongdou and pass the door.
Han Yushu asked, "What about the red beans, ......?" Xi Hongdou estimated that the blow was not small, and he still wanted to inquire about the situation on Xiao Zhi's side again.
Sister-in-law Xi said: "She is still young, and her family affairs are naturally the words of her parents. Speaking of which, she didn't forget to remind: "There have been a lot of turmoil in Hongdou's family affairs, and my in-laws also want to solve this matter quickly." My mother-in-law liked you very much before, and if you propose now, she will definitely go. β
Han Yushu was a little tempted, Sister-in-law Xi quickly found a reason to leave first, the matter of proposing marriage still has to be brought forward by the Han family, and this is all she can do.
