Ruohong had just looked in the mirror, and there was a red mark on her white little face, and she was startled when she saw it, and she was relieved for a while.

It's already broken, and it can't be healed right away.

However, the pomegranate is more seriously injured, and the wound is deep, I am afraid that it will leave a scar.

In the other room, Pomegranate sat on the bed with her knees crossed, and Peony sat opposite her, "Don't be sad, you are still young, you will grow up slowly in the future, and you will be a beautiful and lovely big girl as before." She said.

Pomegranate didn't think about anything at this time, and she wasn't as sad as she said, she just wanted to sit like this for a while, "You go get busy, I'm fine." She said.

"Then I'm leaving." Peony stood up and looked at her again, then turned to open the door and went out.

Dan Tang paced back and forth in the yard, and when he saw Peony coming out, he pulled her aside, "Is she still crying?" Did you say anything? ”

"You care about her so much, why don't you go in and have a look?" Peony said.

Dan Tang was choked by her words, and his face was a little embarrassed, "I had a fight with her, and I wanted to stab her when I saw her,...... Tell me how she is. She said.

Peony smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "You! She didn't say anything, she didn't sit and talk after she stopped crying, I saw that she wanted to be alone, and I came out. She said.

More than an hour later, Hao's mother, Weng's mother and others came back to return, and after some investigation, they found out that it was the two henchmen around Yang's side, who said that they had leaked their mouths before they passed it out.

It's not something to be hidden, it's normal to say it, but I don't know how to spread it.

When Yang saw that it was someone from her side, he stopped him from taking him away, but tied him up and threw him in a utility room.

"What to do, please show the eldest lady." Hao's mother said.

Ruoxue stood up, "I'll go over and take a look, call Guo Ru's sister-in-law from the outer courtyard, and ask her to bring a few Xiao Si in and wait in the second uncle's courtyard." She said.

Sitting in the hall of the second room, how could the Yang family feel that their courtyard was not their own, looking at Ruoxue sitting opposite, and the maid standing next to her, the momentum of being a family lingered on her, which made the Yang family a little stunned.

Ruoxian sat on the round stool beside Yang's side, holding a tea bowl and slowly scraping the foam on the water, not ready to drink.

Ruofei stood beside her, holding a handkerchief in her hand and twisting it vigorously, as if she was cheering herself up.

"How will the two maids be treated?" Ruoxue said that she used to call her mother when she met, but now she calls her a servant directly.

Yang's hand holding the tea bowl trembled, raised his head to look at her, and said, "I mean, it's enough to fine them for two months' monthly money." ”

"How can this be!" Ruoxue glanced at the mothers-in-law standing at the door of the house, "How can you save the Yang family's cousin from criticism with a two-month monthly penalty, and the Yang family's aunt will not agree." She said.

"Then punish them for half a year." The Yang family really didn't want to punish them too heavily, those two people were old people who came to marry with her, and they usually defended her a lot, how could she be willing to punish them heavily.

"The rumors have spread outside the house, and if you don't punish them heavily, it will be difficult to suppress the mouths of the people." Ruoxue picked up the teacup on the table next to her, lifted the lid and slowly took a small sip.

"Then what do you say, beat them for twenty boards?" Yang squatted the tea bowl on the coffee table, she was talking to her in a low voice, why wouldn't this stinky girl be obedient and listen!

Ruoxue put down the tea cup in her hand, took a handkerchief and dipped the corner of her mouth, and said, "Beat twenty boards and sell them to the bitter cold land as slaves." ”

"Nope." Yang Shihuo stood up and stared at Ruoxue deadly.

"Does the second aunt want to ruin the reputation of the Yang family's cousin like this?" Ruoxue looked at the Yang family calmly, and there was no trace of a smile on her face, "In that case, even if the Yang family's cousin comes to the Mei family in the future, she won't have face, right?!" She said.

Yang was choked, not to mention that in the future, even now, her niece's reputation will not be good.

"Then just beat them up, that's all right?" Yang said that she would back down to give an explanation to her mother's family.

Ruofei let go of the twisted handkerchief, walked over and helped Yang sit down, beat Yang's shoulder with a small fist, and then said: "Big sister, just beat them for twenty boards, those two mothers are powerful people around A-Niang, just spare them." ”

Ruoxue looked at her and said, "Your cousin has such a reputation, do you still want her to come to the house as a guest?" ”

Ruofei choked, opened her mouth twice, and didn't say anything.

When she heard her cousin say that her eldest brother was forcing her to marry her, she didn't like her eldest cousin anymore, and she didn't want to see her anymore, so why did she still want her to come to the house!

"Only by severely punishing the two of them can we show the attitude of the government." Ruoxue looked at the Yang family, "If the outside knows about it, they will feel that this matter is rumored by the people in the house, so that the reputation of the Yang family's cousin can be saved, and the Yang family's aunt's anger will be mostly gone,...... she said.

Ruoxian, who had not spoken, put down the tea bowl and said: "Auntie, what the eldest sister said makes sense, it is better to follow the eldest sister's wishes, so that you can also give your aunt an explanation, what do you think?" ”

Ruoxian didn't dare to make up her mind for the Yang family anymore, and the final decision was still handed over to her mother, and she would make the final decision.

Yang looked at Ruoxue's undoubted look, turned his head to look at his daughter Ruoxian, leaned back in the chair dejectedly, looked at Ruoxue and said, "Whatever you want!" You go and deal with it. ”

She also understood that Ruoxue was right, and only by severely punishing those two servant women could she restore Yang Wanqing's reputation.

"Okay." Ruoxue looked at Ruoxian and Ruofei, "Do you want the second sister and the fifth sister to go and see together?" She said.

Ruofei shook her head, "Don't." She said.

She didn't want to go and beat people, so what's the point? The squeaky screams are scared to death.

Ruoxian stood up and said, "My sister and I will go and have a look." ”

"Okay." Ruoxue also stood up and bowed slightly to the Yang family, then turned around and walked towards the courtyard.

When I came to the courtyard, it was already noon, and the sun was warm and pleasant in the courtyard, but the people standing here were cold and bitter.

When Ruoxue came out, a maid brought a chair and placed it at the door of the main room, and asked Ruoxue and Ruoxian to sit down.

Ruoxue walked over and sat down, Peony took the teacup from the little maid next to her, and brought it to Ruoxue's mouth, seeing that she took a small sip and waved her hand, Peony took a step back and stood still with the tea.

Ruoxian followed the example of her eldest sister, and also sat down with her waist straight on the chair.

There were two piles of people standing in the courtyard, one was the servant women and women in the second room, and on the other side was a group of maids of different sizes.

"Is Sister-in-law Guo Ru here?" Ruoxue asked.

"Here we are." Lian Xin said: "She has been waiting outside with four Xiao Si for a while. ”

Ruoxue's eyes swept over the faces of the maids and servants, "Let her take those four Xiao Si to bring the Hong family and Chen Jiuliang's family over, and fight in this courtyard, so that the people who chew the root of the tongue can take a look at the right and wrong of the masters." ”

In order to make an example of a hundred people, Ruoxue beat the two mothers-in-law for 30 boards in the courtyard of the second master in public, and sold them to the bitter cold land to do hard labor.

"There are also two gossips in the big brother's courtyard." Ruoxue said this coldly.

Ruohong was stunned for a moment before she understood what she said, "Isn't that wronging a good person?" She said.

"Those two servant women often have bad ideas around the second aunt, so it's good to clean them out this time, and the second aunt will do less foolish things." Ruoxue hugged the three-month-old white cat and gently stroked her hand on the white cat's little head.

Ruohong blinked and blinked his eyes wide, this was to secretly clean up some people who were not responsible for investigating rumors, "It's too hard to clean up two, right?" And what about the people in Big Brother's Yard? She said.

"Those two are children, and they were all present when they played the board, so I guess they won't say anything more in the future. There were also a few servant women and mothers-in-law who had never even entered the door of the inner courtyard, and they dared to spread rumors and make trouble, so they were all sent to Zhuangzi to farm. Ruoxue said.

"Sister, your heart is too good, this will encourage those who are restless in their hearts." Ruohong reminded him.

Ruohong has also read a lot of online articles about house fights, which contain plots about how to deal with people, and they are all light when they are posted to Zhuangzi, and they can't hurt at all if they don't hurt or itch.

The key ones are sold directly to the people, and then they are sold to the families who want servants, and the heavier ones are sold to the bitter cold land to do hard labor.

Ruoxue put the white cat on the ground and watched it go out with its tail wagging, "Selling them is also something to do, so it's better to let them farm for me!" Besides, they can't sell it for a few bucks, so it feels like they're losing money. She said.

Ruohong laughed when she heard this.

The afternoon sun is bright and warm, Ruohong pulls Ruoxue to the yard to take a look at the new buds on the flowers and trees, which is much better than always looking at the account book.

After walking around for half an hour, I walked to an octagonal pavilion and sat inside.

"I think it's better for cousins not to get married." Ruohong said seriously, the serious expression on her face made Ruoxue's heart nervous.

"Why?" Ruoxue asked.

Ruohong briefly talked about the harm of marriage between close relatives, she also read some reports on it, and she didn't learn this professionally, so she could only talk about it briefly.

The ancients had more intimate marriages, and it was not something that she could change with a few words.

Ruoxue also fell into deep thought when she heard what she said, there are many families in Jinling City, who have had children born in close marriage, but they will not suspect that it is the cause of inbreeding, and no one will think about it.

"Miss......"

Lian Xin trotted all the way into the octagonal gazebo, bent over and gasped for breath.

"What's wrong?" Ruohong asked.

"The ship of the prince of Jin Zhang, on the way back, was robbed by pirates, and someone just came back and forth, saying that there were already people taking silver from the Qian Village, and there were a lot of people......," Lian Xin said.

Ruoxue slowly stood up against the stone table, "Is it true?" She said.

"Definitely. I heard that the news came from the courtyard of King Jin Zhang's prince. Lian Xin said.

"Peony, let someone prepare a car to go to Qianzhuang......" Ruoxue said.

Peony answered "yes" and ran out with wind under her feet.

"I'm going too." Ruohong said.

"Big sister, you're here!" Mei Zhiyuan was led here by the maid.

Ruoxue and Ruohong walked out of the Octagonal Pavilion and walked towards the road where Mei Zhiyuan came, Lianxin and the other seven or eight maids followed closely behind, their footsteps were not messy, and they kept an appropriate distance.

"Big brother has to believe it too?" A few steps away, Ruoxue asked out loud.

"Big brother......" Ruohong shouted as a greeting.

"Big sister knows, too? Well, I just heard it on the street when I came out of the school, so I was in a hurry to come back and talk to you. He said.

"Big brother, will I go to the money village with me?" Ruoxue said.

"I ......" Mei Zhiyuan's face stiffened, and asked him to go to Qianzhuang, if he could get in touch with the family's industry, "Okay, I'll accompany you." He said.

"Then let's go."

After walking out for a while, Mei Zhiyuan realized that Ruohong was also going to go together, he calmed his heart a little, the eldest sister was willing to take the third sister with him, and he was by the way, not necessarily what he thought.

When I arrived in the front yard, I met Mei Zhigao who had changed his clothes, Ruoxue said, "It's early for you to come back, and you have changed your clothes." He asked Mei Zhiyuan if he wanted to change his clothes.

"I just wore it this morning, and I don't need to change it in a hurry." Mei Zhiyuan said.

"I left a little earlier than my eldest brother, but it's not skipping school, don't think too much!" Mei Zhigao shouted with a white face.

"Are you alright? Let's go to the money bank and have a look. Ruoxue said.

"I'm fine, is something happening to Qianzhuang?" Mei Zhigao asked.

"Someone is running on money." Ruohong said.

"What?"

When I arrived at the gate, I saw the guys from Qian Zhuang coming to the house to report the news.

The guy saw that Ruoxue didn't care about saluting, and followed them outside, while saying: "At the beginning, the shopkeeper Wei didn't know that it was a run, so he cashed out hundreds of thousands of taels, and then there were more people who came, and the shopkeeper Wei found that something was wrong, so he let us go out to inquire."

Only then did I know that there was an accident with the prince of King Jinzhang, and the news came from the son of the garrison who was fighting with the prince, and it was hard to say if it was true.

At this time, the shopkeeper has slowed down the speed of cashing, and there are a few customers who are more than 10,000 taels, all of whom are pressed to not redeem them immediately, waiting for you to discuss! ”

"How did it happen?" Mei Zhigao said.

He heard Mei Zhiyuan talk about the rumors outside just now, and he also knew that the matter was very serious, and he was worried that there would be chaos on the Qian Zhuang's side.

A few maids and servants got into the carriage, and hurriedly got into the carriage behind.

Ruoxue sat in the carriage, staring at the swinging curtains of the car all the way, and she didn't say anything and just watched.

Ruohong said: "Let the deceased be more realistic, right?" ”

"Yes. You should ask him, how can such news be allowed to get out! You should keep your mouth shut. Mei Zhigao said.

"Ordinary people are afraid that they won't be able to see that prince, right?" Mei Zhiyuan said.
