Chapter 92
Seeing Yu Wen'an saluting so solemnly, Mu Qingling hurriedly avoided the side, and excused herself: "My cousin is serious, they are all my own brothers and sisters, where is the use of this?" The third aunt has worried a lot about her cousin during this time, if you want to say that she has worked hard, what is Qingling's hard work compared to the third aunt? ”
Mu Qingling and Yu Wen'an led Mrs. Liu to sit on the Luohan bed again, and Mrs. Liu pulled Mu Qingling to her side and sat down, and said gratefully: "Don't be modest, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I'm still in the dark, and I don't even know who wants to harm us." By the way, what Wen Yuan said in Fushoutang today, but is it true? Is the Criminal Department really going to send someone to investigate this matter? ”
Yu Wenan sat down, looked at Mu Qingling, and said to Mrs. Liu: "It's true, my son doesn't dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing." Brother Wen Yuan's words are right, now that his son is famous, fraud in the imperial examination is a big deal. If someone deliberately frames it, it is not a trivial matter that can be dealt with privately, and it is imperative for the criminal department to intervene in the investigation. And ......"
"And what?" Mrs. Liu asked, Yu Wenan thought about it, but still didn't hide it, and said: "Don't hide it from my mother, Shuntianfu Yin single-handedly planned the fraud in the imperial examination, and after the incident, he sent people to kill people and kill people. In this way, it is estimated that the Holy Lord will issue an order to strictly investigate and deal with this matter in connection with our family. ”
Mrs. Liu was shocked when she heard this, and after thinking about it, she thought it was a good thing. Left and right they are victims, if there is really an external force to intervene in the investigation of the Jingyong Mansion, it is the Xu family who should have a headache and be anxious.
Mrs. Liu turned her head to look at Yu Wenan and said, "You just came back from the Criminal Department, hurry up and go back to freshen up." Even if the Criminal Department doesn't embarrass you, presumably you can't eat or sleep well, you don't have to come over to say hello these mornings, it's important to nourish your mind first. The clothes on his body, as well as all the clothes brought back from the punishment department, were put away by the people below and burned them. Staying in that kind of place for so long, it is inevitable that you will be tainted with bad luck. ”
Yu Wenan knew that Mrs. Liu had something to say to Mu Qingling, and he couldn't stay here to listen, so he got up and said goodbye. When Yu Wen'an went out, Mrs. Liu called Fang Ting again and asked her to tell the small kitchen to prepare some nourishing soup for Yu Wen'an in the past few days, and also asked Fang Ting to open her private treasury and select a lot of good medicinal materials from it to send it. Mu Qingling looked at Mrs. Liu Zhang Luo while using tea, and when Fang Ting received the order, Mu Qingling brought the tea to Mrs. Liu, and said with a smile: "The third aunt can be regarded as relieved now." ”
Mrs. Liu took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and sighed, "No, my heart is like cooking oil these days, it is scorching and painful, but I can't do anything." I can only cry and wipe my tears all day long, I am ashamed to say that you have helped me think so much because of your tiredness, but unfortunately, the inner ghost is just like hiding in my heart. These days, I haven't lost a lot of people, but I didn't turn him out. ”
Speaking of this, Mrs. Liu was depressed, knowing that there was a mouse at home, but she couldn't catch it, which was like a toad lying on her feet, and she felt sick when she thought about it. What's more, this mouse still has to bite, if you don't pull him out, don't think about living a clean life after Happy.
Seeing that Mrs. Liu was angry, Mu Qingling persuaded: "The third aunt doesn't need to be angry, that person is hiding deeply, so let him hide it first." Now this matter is no longer a family matter of the Jingyong Mansion, there are adults from the Criminal Department investigating, not to mention that the scholar who committed perjury has already been recruited, and it is not easy to find out the moths in the mansion by going through the vine? The third aunt now only has to restrain her subordinates, don't let people take advantage of the chaos to escape from the heart. ”
"That's right." Mrs. Liu nodded and said, after speaking, she patted Mu Qingling's hand again, and said with a gentle smile: "God has eyes, I actually met you." Ling'er, your great kindness to Wen'an, my aunt will remember it in my heart. If there is a ...... in the future"
"Third aunt, stop talking, where is it so serious!" Mu Qingling hurriedly interrupted Mrs. Liu's words, "Since I called my cousin, our previous blood and family relationship cannot be broken, not to mention that after so many years, the third aunt has taken care of Qingling, how can Qingling sit idly by?" ”
Mrs. Liu sighed in her heart, she took care of Mu Qingling, but it was just the icing on the cake for the sake of the old lady. In fact, it is to please the old lady and give them more attention in the third room. But Mu Qingling this time, it is indeed a real charcoal in the snow, which can be described as a great favor for the third room.
Shuangxinzhai was overjoyed because Yu Wen'an returned safely.
Mrs. Xu's side is gloomy and miserable, and the clouds are overcast. Yu Wenda followed Xu back to the room, and as soon as he entered the house, he had a seizure, smashing cups and bowls, his eyes were bloodshot, like a madman, "Damn Yu Wen'an!" How did he come back safely! The group of people in the criminal department didn't know what they were eating, so they put him back well! If you want me to say, I should be punished! Beat him so that he was not human, so he naturally recognized everything! “
"That's it! What are you crazy about here, you have the ability to go out and howl! Xu was upset, Yu Wenda was still chattering in her ear, Xu immediately lowered his face and reprimanded Yu Wenda loudly.
Yu Wenda's neck shrank, thinking that he was still unwilling, he stiffened his neck and said: "Mother, are you willing to watch Yu Wen'an's climb up to my neck?!" There is also a third room, what was the third room before, and he didn't even dare to say a hard word, but now he has to rely on Yu Wenan to stand up. Mother, you have to think of a way! “
Xu was upset and irritable by Yu Wenda, and when he saw that Yu Wenda didn't know that a catastrophe was coming, he suddenly became angry, and the tea that the little maid had just served was swept to the ground by Xu's palm and smashed at Yu Wenda's feet, "Find a way, you will know to force your mother to find a way!" If you are fighting for some anger, why did I end up where I am today?! You only know how to scold Yu Wen'an, but what about you?! “
Xu stood up, pointed at Yu Wenda and scolded: "Yu Wen'an has only studied at Qingshan Academy for a few years, and he can be promoted at a young age. What about you? I went to great lengths to send you to the National Prison, what have you achieved over the years?! You are proficient in eating, drinking, and playing with women, why can't you even pass the college exam! “
Yu Wenda was speechless when he was scolded by Xu, and stood in place and didn't dare to say anything. Xu finished his anger and sat down again. The more I thought about it, the more angry I became, and Yu Wenyuan said today that someone from the Criminal Department would intervene in the investigation in the future, and there was panic in my heart.
Seeing that Yu Wenda was still there, he was even more angry, "What are you still standing here for?" Go back to your house! Yu Wenda looked at the Xu family, but he still didn't dare to say anything, and he came out of the Xu family's house in a gloomy manner.
After Xu's anger was finished, Xu's mother came up, served new tea, looked at Xu's face, and said cautiously: "Madam, now...... What should we do? “
"What to do, you ask me what to do?" Xu sneered and looked at Mother Xu, "Now you all come to ask me what to do, who will I ask!" What did you tell me at the beginning, what is foolproof, what kind of custody can make Yu Wenan unable to eat and walk around, why don't you play with me such a package ticket now! “
Mother Xu knelt at Xu's feet and cried: "Madam, this ...... I don't want this thing to be like this, I really did what my wife told me, not to say perfect, but I never dared to slack off. This, how did this allow Yu Wenan to escape...... I really don't know! “
"That's it! Don't cry! Crying makes me have a headache......" Xu Shi propped up on the small table with one hand, rubbed his forehead, and held his heart with the other, "What's the use of crying, the top priority is to find out whether what Yu Wenyuan said today is true or false." “
"That's what the wife said...... What about the investigation of the criminal department? Xu's mother asked, Xu's eyes closed, and her heart was in a hurry.
Yu Wenan has returned, and his fame is retained. This is a matter that has been decided by the three divisions, and the decision has not changed. The scholar who fell into the hands of the Criminal Department was a talisman for her, if she didn't solve this matter first, and when the people from the Criminal Department really came to the door, it would be hopeless.
When I found someone to go to Shuangxinzhai to steal the article, it was Xu's mother who came forward to contact the student, and instructed the student to testify that Yu Wen'an was Xu's mother's husband. Case......
Xu Shi had an idea in his heart, put down his hand, took a sip of the teacup, and said slowly: "Mother Xu, you have followed me for more than 20 years, right?" Seeing that Xu's face was better, Mother Xu hurriedly took two steps, stepped forward and said, "Yes, the old slave followed his wife to the capital, and it will be twenty-seven or eight years." “
"Mother Xu, although I look at the scenery, I am the wife of the Jingyong Mansion. But you know, the master is not very effective outside, and the evaluation has been down every year in the past few years. It is impossible to expect him to be promoted. Wenda is such a temperament again, and he can't get grades in a short period of time. I don't bother to say the rest, they are not the material for the top door. If I'm not hard, we'll have a second room, I'm afraid there will be no way to live. “
"What is Mrs. talking about, with Mrs. You, the future of the second room is bright." Mother Xu hurriedly flattered, and Xu smiled, "Mother Xu, you have always been my first confidant, if I have anything to say, you can understand." Although I have the means to reach the sky, but if someone from the Criminal Department really intervenes in the house this time, I can't do anything, if I am implicated in this matter, our second room, isn't it in danger? “
Mother Xu realized the meaning of Xu's words, and she couldn't hold back her laughter anymore, so she forcibly pulled the corners of her mouth and said in a trembling voice: "Mrs., this, these things, I can listen to your orders!" “
Xu Shi picked up the teacup, skimmed the floating leaves, and said lightly, "Did I tell you anything?" It's just that I complained to you a few words about Wenda's discouragement, and I was so angry that I vomited blood. The heart is full of sorrow. You don't know who you learned it to when you go back, or if you accidentally slipped it out. “
Mother Xu was stunned, what Xu's words meant was not to give her up to take the blame, but to give up her man! Mother Xu still wanted to ask again, so she heard Xu say again: "Mother Xu, your youngest son should be fifteen this year, right?" “
Mother Xu's heart was cold, "Yes, yes." Xu put down the tea bowl in his hand, took Xu's mother's hand, and said kindly: "You are also a blessed person, you have children and daughters, the eldest son is now following the foreign steward, going all over the world, even the eldest grandson has given birth to you, and the eldest daughter has also married a housekeeper with a head and a face, and she can be regarded as able to block one side." Although the youngest son is still young, he can also see that he is a clever child, Mother Xu, we women have worked hard all our lives, what are we trying to do? Isn't it just for the sake of a good future for the children? “
"This woman, relying on heaven and earth and relying on herself, but in the end, it still depends on whether the children are filial or not. Take your eldest son as an example, he is the most powerful person to listen to when he is out of business, but who knows what will happen to these five lakes and seas and the sky to the earth? Right? Mother Xu, you are the person in front of me, if I am good, you can be good. Your sons and daughters are good, you say, right? “
Mother Xu looked at the gentle and amiable smile on Xu's face, but she couldn't stop trembling all over. She still wanted to ask again, but when she saw that Xu suddenly smiled, let go of Xu's mother's hand, and said coldly: "Either wait for the people from the Criminal Department to come and send us to prison, big and small." I'm the head wife of the second room, the Ming Media of the Jingyong Mansion is marrying in, and I have children by my side, can the old lady really let me have something? What's more, I still have Princess Yong. But Mother Xu, what about you? “
"In the prison of the Criminal Department, you two are bound to have no way to live. But your sons and daughters are still in the house, once this happens, do you think they will still have a way to live? I'm afraid it's not just them, but even those who are related to you can't stay. But don't worry, the old lady is a soft-hearted person, and she can't do anything to beat them to death, at most she's just selling. As for where it is sold, I'm afraid the old lady won't worry about it, you say, if I fall, who will preside over the internal affairs of this house, while you have time, you might as well think about it, it's a big house? Or is it a three-room one? When you think of it, you beg her not to let people sell your children and grandchildren to the kilns of the coal yard. Go down, go down and think about it. “
Xu waved her hand to let Xu's mother stand down, Xu's mother was so heartfelt by Xu's words that she stood up woodenly, took two steps out, and suddenly turned around, ran to Xu's feet and knelt down, hugged Xu's feet and cried: "Don't worry, Mrs., old slave...... The old slave must have done a good job of this. I will never implicate my wife in the slightest! The old slave's loyalty to his wife can be seen in the world. “
Hearing Xu's mother say this, Xu's face softened, helped Xu's mother up and said, "I know that you are an understanding person." Don't worry, I won't let you lose a husband in vain, Xu Da is not young, and he can't run outside all the time, and when he comes back, I will arrange for him to take over the granges everywhere. Your youngest son doesn't have to worry, let him follow Wen Min in the future, it's better than messing around outside. “
Xu knows the importance of giving a sweet jujube, and in just a few words, he arranged the future of Xu's mother and two sons. Now there are two roads in front of her, either the whole family will suffer with the Xu family, the Xu family is the wife of the Yu family, and some people help her to turn big things into small things, and then the blame will be doubled on them; Or, one person went out and confessed all the crimes, and the others continued to follow Xu's promotion to make a fortune.
Mother Xu has made a decision in her heart and no longer hesitates. Mrs. Xu achieved her goal, took a letter of silver with satisfaction, handed it to Xu's mother, and said: "There are many places to use silver in the back, although Xu Wang thought about it for a while and took the wrong idea, but he is also loyal." It's good to take care of him well, and it will be good to suffer less in the future. Alright, go down. “
