Chapter 4: A bite back
"Changning...... Master Hou! Changning must have been scared stupid, come on, take Changning back to rest. ”
Aunt Yao stepped forward to pull Rong Changning on the ground, Rong Changning hurriedly got up and took a few steps back and pushed directly behind Rong Chuan, revealing fear and despair in her cold tone: "Father, this is the person you brought back, see?" Not only did she use her son's life to accuse Ah Ruo, but she also burned me to death and Rong Ruo to death. Not only that, but she also burned down the ancestral hall. The ancestral hall of my Rong ancestors. Father, what kind of face do you have to face your mother and ancestors under the Nine Springs?! ”
"Rong Changning! You speak carefully, my aunt has been staying in Lukayuan, do you want to slander people when you touch your upper and lower lips? ”
Rong Changning seemed to have heard this sentence in the daytime, she smiled sadly, the smile was distressing, she turned her eyes to look at Rong Chuan and asked herself: "Does my father believe it?" Presumably, my father would not believe it. ”
After saying that, Rong Changning turned around and left, Xiao Dong picked up the tablet on the ground and followed behind Rong Changning, lonely and embarrassed. Aunt Xu and Rong Xin looked at Rong Chuan cautiously, Rong Chuan didn't say a word, just stared at the fire and thought: It's only been two months, how can it become like this?
By the time the fire was extinguished, it would be almost dawn.
Rong Chuan sat all night facing the objects left by his wife, and Aunt Xu knelt outside and cried and knelt all night, crying in her throat, unable to speak seriously.
The wind was cold and the night was cold, and the snow on the eaves blew away on the mother and daughter, looking really pitiful and miserable, and shouted to the house that he had been wronged, and asked Rong Chuan to see her for the sake of his son still sick in bed.
But after one night, she didn't even have the strength to be pitiful, and she knelt on the cold ground with an expressionless face and whispered viciously to Rong Xin beside her in a hoarse voice: "Rong Changning is a goblin...... I was actually calculated by her little girl......"
Rong Xin hurriedly looked around and reminded in a low voice: "Auntie, be quiet, this is the main courtyard." ”
"What happened to the main house? Your father doesn't even look at us, who can hear you? ”
"Maybe my father is really angry, plus a few words that Rong Changning's little hoof said last night...... Even if my father wants to see us, he has to think about it. Why don't we go back first? ”
"Back? Xin'er, it's the ancestral hall that is burning. I have only been the master of the backyard for less than two months, and the ancestral hall has been burned, and the murderer cannot be found, so there is really nothing left to go back. ”
"The so-called puritarian ...... himself"
"You know what?" Aunt Xu seemed to be afraid of hearing the words 'the clear self-purifying', and hurriedly interrupted Rong Xin's words: "Your father is soft-hearted, and he can't see bitter tricks the most. This will definitely feel ashamed of the two and three honors in his heart. ”
While speaking, Steward Yang had already carried the two of them to the main courtyard, and when he walked to Aunt Xu's side, he bent down and saluted, and entered the house without saying a word: "Master Hou, I found this on the little maid in the ancestral hall." ”
Rong Chuan glanced at it: "Fire Fold? ”
"It's the fire of the firewood house. The rules set by the lady are that the fire fold in the house should be wherever it should be, and the person in charge cannot take it privately or borrow it. Otherwise, it will be dealt with by family law. ”
"What do those two people say?"
The two people said that the second lady was burning paper money before, and the fire was burning from the back window, and they sat in front and thought it was the fire in the clay pot, so they didn't look at it before the fire burned bigger. Such a statement is really vague. ”
"What about Changning? Still won't see me? ”
"The second lady and the eldest lady stayed in the courtyard of the prince all night, and Xiaodong came out twice, saying that the two girls cried for a while. The second lady was awakened by a dream several times in her sleep, and refused to go back to the room, saying that she was afraid that someone would assassinate the son. ”
Hearing this, Rong Chuan sighed lightly: "This kid should hate me so much, he can do anything......"
Steward Yang lowered his head to understand what Rong Chuan was alluding to, and also caught a glimpse of the gold-clad white jade hibiscus hairpin on the desk, and couldn't help but remember the dignity and kindness of the first lady, so he secretly defended Rong Changning: "The second lady has a clear love and hate, and she will indeed do things like burning jade." But her relationship with the prince is the best, and she will not care about the safety of the prince in vain in order to export her evil anger. ”
"That's what you said, when Aruo made a mistake, she rushed to stop herself. This point can't even be compared to Rong Ling. I'd better wait for her to be discouraged before calling her to me. ”
"What should I do about the ancestral hall? Aunt Xu was still kneeling outside. ”
"Burning down the ancestral ancestral hall is not a glorious thing, the two outside are tied up to the firewood house and starved for a few days, and the ones from the Lukayuan are brought back and grounded. I'll talk about it when I see Changning. ”
"Yes."
……
"Just grounded?" Rong Changning, who was guarding Rong Ruo, was shocked by this result, and then was disappointed: "Father really doesn't believe that his Aunt Xu dares to burn the ancestral hall." ”
Rong Ling, who was sitting next to her, lifted her azure sleeves and handed it to Rong Changning as soon as she arrived at the hot tea: "Fortunately, you and Ah Ruo are fine, this move is too risky, and you can't do it again in the future." It's me who doesn't think about it. ”
Rong Changning leaned on the side of the desk and bit the corner of his mouth: "There will always be a way." The worst is the worst, I went to beg my brother to send someone to assassinate ......"
"Shhhhh Don't let people listen to the handle. If her mother is wronged, no matter what, she must go down openly and make amends to her mother. ”
Rong Changning lowered his head and held the teacup and muttered for a long time: "I know." ”
She put down the teacup in her hand: "Aunt Xu bites Ah Ruo and doesn't let go, the trick is fatal, you and I are always going to get married...... We have to hold on until Ah Ruo attacks the lord, or until Aunt Xu confesses. ”
Speaking of this, Rong Changning began to feel that her heart was astringent, the tip of her nose was sour, her eyes were red, she raised her head and said that she would not let the tears fall, and her stubborn appearance did not know who to follow, but it made people look very distressed, she smiled and said: "Why is my heart so depressed?" ”
Usually Rong Changning's temperament is always light, she has never been happy or sad, and she can make her shed tears, which should be heartbroken to the extreme.
In terms of reasoning, Rong Changning understands everything, and he doesn't need Rong Ling to say more, so he can only hold her tightly in his arms: "It will pass, she will suffer from God's curse." ”
"She will, will."
Behind the two sisters is a screen of idle clouds painted black, on which the vines and snakes climb on the carved clouds, and the light brown curtain behind them will cover Rong Ruo tightly.
Rong Changning and Rong Ling were reluctant to leave outside, waiting for him to wake up.
Rong Chuan of the main courtyard was also waiting, and asked Rong Changning by the way several times, but Xiao Dong prevaricated.
When he came over with tea, he didn't forget to mention it to Rong Changning: "The people from the main courtyard have come to ask a few times, does it seem too ...... if the young lady doesn't go?"
