Chapter 123: Guilt

In Nanyang County at night, a strong wind blew, and the windows of the firewood house were blown and whined.

"Third sister, fourth sister, fifth sister, are you cold? I have a thick cloak here, which was secretly sent by my aunt and grandmother, and I threw it on the screen, and you should quickly surround it. "It was Gui Yinan who spoke, he was the only man here, so he naturally had to take care of the sisters.

Because of the difference between men and women, the second old lady ordered someone to place a screen in the firewood room, Gui Yi Nan knelt on one side, and the three girls knelt on the other side.

"No, we're not cold, Brother Nan, you're so clothed yourself, don't worry about us." Gui Chuying shouted on the other side of the screen.

"Sister, I'm cold ......" Gui Chuchu shuddered, holding his mouth and crying with a sad face.

"Who are you so cold? Blame yourself for being pretty, my mother obviously let us all wear thicker, you want to think that the cyan fox fur jacket is ugly and refuse to wear it, this is the firewood room, who looks at you ugly in the dark! Gui Chuying scolded in an angry low voice.

Gui Chuchu was scolded and cried, and she didn't dare to refute, but in her eyes, the cyan fox fur jacket was ugly!

"The wind is a little stronger tonight, and there are no stars outside, it's weird and scary, listen to the sound." Diancui couldn't help but feel a little numb in her scalp, this scene actually reminded her of the books about ghosts and spirits that she got from Yuan Zhiheng......

When she was in Qianjia Village before, she had seen darker and colder nights, but at that time she didn't read those scary books, the so-called ignorant are the most fearless, and now she is still fearless.

"Otherwise, let's hug together, and it will probably be warmer to huddle together......" Diancui said with a sad face, in fact, she is not particularly cold, it is cold here, but the Buddhist hall where her grandmother punished her to kneel before is even more gloomy and cold, this time she listened to the whining wind, and she was afraid.

"Phew! Who wants to hug you," Gui Chuyu blushed a little, but fortunately it was too dark, and no one could look at anyone's face.

Gui Chuchu, who was shivering with a little cold, had to accompany him and said carefully: "If the third sister doesn't want to hug each other, then I'll go and get Brother Nan's cloak ......."

"No way!"

"Don't go!"

Two voices came in a low voice, both of which were unquestionable.

A few of their girls are cold, they can still huddle together to keep warm, there is only one person on the other side of the screen, Gui Nan, untie the cloak and give it to them, if it really freezes out three long and two short, let them explain to the second aunt? Especially now that Brother Xuan is already freezing with a fever, the second aunt may have a little worry in her heart.

The two sons were all frozen sick all of a sudden, and a few of them were doing well, so how could they explain to their second uncle and aunt?

Gui Chu Chu is innocent where would he think so much, Diancui has naturally lived more thoroughly than others after two lives, and Gui Chuyu should have been a young lady who is ignorant of the world, but because of the experience in her early years, she was more thoughtful than others.

"Come closer, hug...... It's in one place......" Gui Chuyu said a little awkwardly.

When the other two heard this, they immediately surrounded them.

"Does this really work?" Gui Chuchu's muffled voice came, and because the two sisters were afraid that she would be cold, they squeezed her in the middle.

Gui Chuyu also wanted to know.

"It should work, you haven't seen it before, in the winter, when those chicks and chicks sleep, they are huddled together, if you touch it, it's hot." Diancui was a little sleepy, and said with a daze leaning on Gui Chuyu's shoulder.

……

Early in the morning of the second day, when Wu and Wang broke in with people, they were laughed at by the scene in front of them.

They were mothers, and they didn't sleep all night in fear.

When I came to take a look today, I saw that the three girls here were huddled together, sleeping soundly, especially the innermost one, with a red face and fine beads of sweat on their foreheads.

"Quick, go back and pour ginger soup, hug a few more soup women, get a bucket of hot water to take a bath, and then sleep for a long time, make sure there is nothing to do." Wu instructed the mother-in-law around the Wang family while directing his subordinates to do things, this is not the first time that her family has been punished and kneeling, but it is to deal with it in an orderly manner.

When Wang heard what she said, his heart settled down.

At this time, Lian Shi also came, and looked at Brother Nan, who was wrapped in a thick cloak on the side of the screen, smirking at him, and stepped forward to try his forehead, so he was relieved, and said hatefully, so that you can't look at your brother well, you deserve to be punished!

"Second aunt, Brother Xuan is all right? Wait for us to go back and change our clothes, and then come back to compensate the second aunt. Diancui leaned on Wu Shi and said pitifully.

The other two girls, like the other two girls, are generally pitiful like Xiaojing.

Lian Shi looked angry and funny, and said angrily: "None of them are worry-free, don't go back to warm up your body quickly, girls can't freeze the most, so are the three of you, Brother Nan is a boy after all, and you should give you a cloak, who wants you to apologize, just squeeze it all night." ”

When several girls saw the appearance of the second aunt, they thought that they had forgiven them, and they were all relieved, and they went back to the courtyard to drink ginger soup and hug the soup woman.

Diancui went back here, Qiuyue and Grandma Lu had already prepared hot water, soaked it beautifully, until it was sweating, and then Qiuyue quickly dried her body and changed into a clean and soft middle coat, while wringing her hair, Xin'er brought a bowl of hot chicken shredded lotus leaf glutinous rice porridge and fed her a mouthful to eat.

"Xin'er, why don't you see Madame?" It was Grandma Lu who poured hot water and left in a hurry, Dian Cui couldn't help asking.

Xin'er glanced at Qiu Yue, and Qiu Yue said: "Madame and Grandma Lu went to the second old lady to talk with them, and when they left, they instructed the young lady to finish the porridge and go to sleep quickly." ”

Dian Cui heard this, and also felt sleepy, yesterday in the field kneeling to sleep, after all, I couldn't sleep well, so I got into the warm and smoked quilt, and fell asleep after a while.

This sleep is most of the day.

When I woke up again, I saw that the sun was already setting in the west, so I called for someone, and it took a long time to see Qiuyue and Xin'er hurriedly running in from outside.

"Look at your panicked looks, but what happened?" Diancui asked, rubbing her eyes.

Qiu Yue saw that she was awake, so she immediately cleaned up and dressed her with Xin'er, and said quickly:

"There is someone in our house, it is the housekeeper who came, and the old man said that he would come in person, but he was persuaded by the old lady because of his foot injury. When the housekeeper came, he also brought the confession of the old lady to interrogate the embroidery room, saying that the matter had been clear back then, and that the Yan woman had also been sent to the official by the old lady, and because of the relationship between the Yan woman, the old lady had fallen ill angrily. ”

That Mrs. Yan is a distant relative of the old lady, who has been protected by the old lady for many years, and now she has committed a heinous crime that harms people's lives, and the old lady has also been deceived for many years, which is to slap the old lady in the face!

"The slave maid and Sister Qiuyue just went out to inquire with others, and they only inquired so much, and they didn't know what they were by." Xin'er hurriedly interjected.

"You don't need to wear a crown on your head, just insert a hairpin, let's go." Diancui hurriedly put on embroidered shoes and rushed to the courtyard of the second old lady.

"Miss, the lipstick hasn't been applied yet...... "This is too plain," Xin'er muttered.

Diancui didn't have time to explain to her, if she was still wearing a rich and elegant dress at this time, she really didn't pay attention to it, and once it was revealed at this time, it was to show the fourth aunt's family that their family had done wrong, and of course they had to use the sincerity and apology of doing the wrong thing.

When she entered the courtyard of the second old lady, she saw the two big maids at the door personally guarding the door, and saw that she was here before she solemnly let her go, but the two maids were stopped outside.

Not to mention the maids, even the young masters Gui Zhongqing and Gui Yinan were stopped outside.

When he entered the house, Rao was mentally prepared, and he was also shocked.

I saw that the fragments of the tea cup on the ground in this room were scattered all over the ground, and Gui Chuyu sat on the ground with his head, staring at the fourth aunt Wang who was sitting on it without saying a word but clearly trembling with anger.

"If I don't teach this black-hearted Nizi a lesson today, my son will be wronged for so many years!" Wang suddenly burst into tears.

"Wang, it's ......" The second old lady sighed and said helplessly: "Your eldest aunt has already interceded for her in the letter, so you can stop for the sake of your eldest aunt's face." Come! Take her out, and let the third brother of the third family take her back to Beijing as soon as possible, and let the old lady deal with it. ”

It is said that the old lady Gui was tough and shrewd, and this time she asked the housekeeper to come day and night, showing that she attached great importance to this matter, and brought two letters, one was the confession of the Yan woman, indicating that the maid died at her hands back then, not by Chu Yu, and the collusion between her and Gui Chuyu to frame and wrongfully return to Chu Yu is also clear; The other letter was written by her own hand to the second old lady, and she was not afraid of revealing the ugliness of her family, and she also explained the relationship between Chu Yu and the second son of the An family, as well as the reason why the third master was promoted.

"That's it! That's all the old lady, what about the grievances my Yu'er has suffered over the years? Wang was not angry.

She was crying angrily here, and on the other side, Diancui saw her mother caressing Gui Chuyu, and both of them were in tears.

"Yu'er is the third aunt I'm sorry for you, the third aunt is bad, I should believe your words at the time, that maid was not killed by you, it was the third aunt who was bad, ...... worse" Wu Shi has been holding back since he heard about this incident when he heard Diancui a few years ago, and he knew that now he heard the confession with his own ears, so he couldn't help crying bitterly.

Seeing that her mother was crying, Diancui suddenly felt sour, tears poured up, and she hugged Wu Shi in the past, and also cried.

"Wu Lingwei! Is it that we owe you in our last life, you say! Wang suddenly cried and pointed at Wu and scolded:

"You were strong when you were young, and Yajing and I let you everywhere. You lost your favorite little daughter, and after three years of searching, you still refuse to give up, and you want to die or live to make yourself a ghost and a ghost. I can't bear to see you continue to practice yourself, so I ruthlessly gave my smart and clever eldest daughter to you as a daughter, who knows that you are a white-eyed wolf, I don't know where to find an imposter who thinks of yourself as his own daughter, and wronged my child to kill your maid! You say, how ruthless your heart is! ”

Wu Shi was even more guilty of what she said, so guilty that he almost fainted.

At that time, she also treated Yu'er as her own daughter, Yu'er's clothes were sewn by herself, she couldn't wait to make everything she ate and drank with her hands, and when Yu'er was sick, she was also undressed day and night...... In those four or five years, she pinned her emotions of losing her daughter on Yu'er, which was very good to her, and Gui Chuyu became more and more dependent on her......

She felt guilty and uncomfortable, Gui Chuyu was hugged by her and cried, and the memory that she never wanted to remember appeared in her mind.

She has spent four years by Wu's side, and her life is very happy, and she is also sincerely admired and relied on by her to be called her mother, until that day when Chu Yu appeared with the hairpin......
