Chapter 342: Bitter Life

Cheng looked at these silver tickets and breathed a sigh of relief.

She took out a hundred taels of silver tickets, handed them to Mrs. Fan, and said, "Go to the ready-to-wear shop and buy two changes of clothes and two pairs of shoes and socks for the wife and the eldest lady and the second lady." ”

As for Aunt Shen and Xi Han, Cheng didn't mention a word, as if he didn't see Aunt Shen's expectant eyes, and said, "Buy me a pair of shoes and come back, and you can watch and buy the rest." ”

One hundred taels of silver, six sets of clothes, seven or eight pairs of shoes and socks, and bedding and other items...... Where is enough?

Mrs. Fan opened her mouth and wanted to say that the silver was not enough, but it could be seen that Cheng's gloomy expression, Mrs. Fan immediately shut up and didn't dare to say anything...... But in my heart I decided, I would buy it according to the silver, and if I could not afford silk, I would buy fine cotton.

"A-Niang, Ah Han and I are in a hurry to escape, and we don't have any clothes......"

"And what's on you?"

Cheng made a straight face and glanced at the summer dress she was wearing this year.

Aunt Shen hurriedly defended, "Just this one, you can't change it, right?" ”

Cheng didn't want to buy clothes for Aunt Shen, but when she thought that the Xi family's big house still owed the Zou family 8,000 taels of silver, she changed her mind and instructed Mrs. Fan, "Buy another one for Aunt Shen and Miss San, what kind of purchase, you just look at it." ”

Mrs. Fan answered yes, took a hundred taels of silver tickets, and hurriedly retreated.

It didn't take long for the three sisters Xi Kaiyan, Xi Kailan, and Xi Kaimei to come.

They were joined by their father-in-law and their children.

The three sisters of the Xi family, watching their mother's house burned to ashes, were all stunned and didn't know what to do.

Xi Kaiyan said, "A-Niang, why did it burn, did someone deliberately set this fire?" ”

"Yes, if the oil lamp were to fall on fire, it wouldn't have burned all seven small courtyards at once." Xi Kaimei also felt that the fire was a little strange, and suspected that someone had deliberately set it on fire.

Cheng had this suspicion for a long time, and she even sent someone to report to the official, but after so long, she didn't see the official coming.

She said, "The little guy sent to report to the official has been gone for almost two hours, and the people haven't come back yet, Ah Yin, why don't you go to the yamen to have a look?" ”

Ah Yin is Wang Youyin, Xi Kailan's husband, and the head of the Wang family.

Wang Youyin said respectfully, "Mother-in-law instructed, son-in-law should run by himself, mother-in-law rest assured, son-in-law knows what to do." ”

"Well, you do something, I don't worry, you go quickly, this matter will not be a day, and my heart will not be steady."

Cheng said, glanced at Song Gaochang, and said, "Ah Chang, you go with Ah Yin, and then go to the prison to see Ah Lin by the way, I don't know how he is doing in the prison, by the way, don't tell him about the fire at home, telling him will only increase sadness, but he is tired and worried about his family, don't say anything, just say yes, on the way, buy some wine and food for him to eat." ”

If you don't go to report to the official, why did you go to visit your brother-in-law?

Wang Youyin's eyes flashed, and he nodded in response.

Song Gaochang lowered his eyes and replied yes.

After the two sons-in-law left, Cheng instructed the big housekeeper to take the little son-in-law Zhu Tingmo to sit in the back garden pavilion, and Aunt Shen and the maids and daughters-in-law were also sent out by her under her pretext, leaving only Wang and his three daughters to talk in the house.

Cheng wiped his tears and cried, "My life is hard, I'm getting old, but I have to suffer these hardships one after another." ”
