Chapter 97: Generosity
Wang Ji and the others have been invited out by the guards, and the Daxiangguo Temple with fluttering embroidery ribbons is empty and deserted.
Li Ran broke free from Zhou E's arms, hugged Mrs. Sun from the stage and cried Mrs. Chen, saw Mrs. Zhang standing next to the platform covered in blood, and then saw the loyal and brave Uncle Sun Qiang who was kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly, kowtowing to the point where his head was bleeding.
The blood on the ground slowly flowed towards Sun Qiang.
Next to him, Xie Ze stood straight, his snow-white robe stained with blood.
"Let's go." Li Ran lowered his head, turned around and walked out.
Outside the Great Xiangguo Temple, there were layers of brightly clad imperial guards, and Li Ran's car was already waiting in the layers of guards.
Li Ran got into the car, Zhou E sat next to the coachman, the car came out, and went back to the Chang'an Marquis Mansion.
Turning a street, Li Ran lifted the curtain and said to Zhou E: "I don't want to go back, just go around." ”
"Your hand is injured, you have to wash it off and take medicine quickly, and go to Sister-in-law Wu?" Zhou E looked at Li Ran and said.
"Hmm." Li Ran was silent for a moment and responded in a low voice.
The car stopped outside the side door of Wu's sister-in-law's backyard, Zhou E reached out to help Li Ran, and told the coachman to find Mama Fu and bring a green porcelain medicine jar from her bedside box.
Sister Xi opened the door and saw Li Ran's bloody skirt, her eyes were round with fright, and her face was pale.
"She's fine, she's a little broken, what about your mother? Tell her to boil some water. Zhou E pushed Sister Xi'er.
Sister Xi was pushed by Zhou E to turn around and run fast forward.
Zhou E covered the courtyard door, Li Ran stood in the courtyard, looked at Zhou E and said in a low voice: "It's here, I don't want to enter the house." ”
"Hmm." Zhou E carried a small bamboo chair from under the porch and put it under the pomegranate tree, Sister-in-law Wu had already rushed over from the front store, and Sister Xi followed closely behind.
"Girl......"
"It's okay, hurry up and boil some water, the girl's hands have to be washed, and then some soup and a bowl of tea."
Zhou E came out with a series of orders, and Wu's sister-in-law agreed repeatedly, calling Sister Xi'er, and rushed into the kitchen.
Zhou E brought a bamboo chair again, sat next to Li Ran, and motioned to her, "Show me your hand." ”
Li Ran stretched out her hand out, Zhou E held her two hands, and looked at it carefully, "It's just that the skin is broken, it's not a big deal, my medicine works very well, and it will scab over tomorrow." Alas. ”
Sister-in-law Wu's water boiled quickly, took a brass basin, scalded the basin two or three times, and then took a new handkerchief out, found another pot to boil, brought it out together, and put it on the small square table that Sister Xi moved over.
Zhou E held Li Ran's hand and scrubbed it carefully.
After washing the two hands, there was a knock on the side door, and the coachman sent a small box in, in addition to the jar of medicine that Zhou E said, there were also a few rolls of muslin soaked in medicine, and a few packets of pills with the name of the medicine written on them.
Zhou E applied medicine to Li Ran's palm, wrapped it carefully in a muslin cloth, pointed to the pill and said: "Your hand is a little broken, you don't need to take this medicine, it is a three-point poison." ”
Then turned to Sister-in-law Wu, "You put away these medicines, keep them for later use, these are all medicines from the Tai Hospital, you can't buy them outside, you are literate, what medicine you can see." ”
Sister-in-law Wu responded repeatedly, cleaned up the table, and brought soup and tea up.
"Momonon is still coming over for dinner?" Seeing Li Ran sitting silently, looking at him in a daze, Zhou E and Sister-in-law Wu had nothing to say.
"Come here, it's time to come over in a while, she said she wanted to eat a bowl of mutton noodle soup, I asked Sister Xi and the noodles to wake up, what does the girl want to eat? What about the generals? ”
Sister-in-law Wu was full of wonder and a little timid, and then looked at Li Ran, who was stunned.
"I can't eat it, just drink some soup." Li Ran pointed to the bamboo cane soup in front of him.
"I also eat a bowl of mutton noodles." Zhou E said.
Sister-in-law Wu responded, and together with Sister Xi, she went to the kitchen to cook.
Zhou E picked up a cup of tea, just took two sips, the side door was pushed open from the outside, Tao Nong came in with a few lotus leaf bags, kicked the door with his foot, and shouted: "Something happened in Daxiangguo Temple, alas...... Hey, what's wrong with that, girl? The blood of this body ......"
"What's your name? Shut up! Zhou E glared at Tao Nong.
Tao Nong rushed over in a few steps, piled the things in his hand on the table, and stretched out his head to look at Li Ran, "Girl, what's wrong?" These two hands ......"
"It's okay, you shut up first." Zhou E looked impatient.
"I'm fine." Li Ran smiled and disappeared in a flash.
"It's okay, Sister Xi'er, take these cooked dishes in."
Momonon carried a bamboo chair herself, sat next to Li Ran, and looked at her again.
"You came from Daxiangguo Temple? I heard that there was an accident in the Great Xiangguo Temple, and half of the street was closed, from the Xuande Gate to the Great Xiangguo Temple, all the way was full of imperial troops.
How can you let the girl get hurt? Oh yes, if you don't enter Daxiangguo Temple, what the hell is going on? ”
"Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion, Mrs. Sun, in front of the Daxiong Treasure Palace, she died of poison."
Seeing that Li Ran didn't speak, Zhou E sighed and said dryly.
"Huh?" Momonong was stunned for a moment, and let out a long sigh, "Is it because of the old lady in the south of the city?" ”
"Hmm. You know that too? Zhou E was a little surprised.
Li Ran also looked at Momono.
"This kind of thing has always been unknown to the top, and no one knows about it."
Momono took a sip.
"In the past, the Niu family, who opened a big car shop, has always been regarded as a benefactor by the Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion, General Zhou must know, I heard the head of the Liwa Stone team say before, and when he saw the son of the Zhongyong Uncle's Mansion, he pointed at the nose of the Niu family and reprimanded him, saying that the Niu family went to his wife to sow discord or something. Tut! ”
The corners of Momono's mouth pulled all the way down.
"Listen to what this says, co-authoring is all about sowing discord.
The old lady in the south of the city had been doing things for forty or fifty years, and those people were not dead back then, but in the Niu family's cart shop, a few old guys were still alive.
If you want to overturn the case for their old lady and turn from a scum to a father and son, then you have to wait for everyone to die, at least wait for the old lady in their house to stretch her legs and die.
Well, now it's okay, his old lady died of poison.
Alas, looking at it like this, the day after tomorrow, will they have to beat gongs and drums to welcome their old lady back home? It's best to give a cheap girl in her teens and twenties back, and then take a ten-room and eight-room concubine, alas, this is a great filial piety, and the joy of family! ”
Momonong clapped his hands, sang like a play, and when it came to the joy of family, he took a sip.
"This time, the Niu family is miserable, the Niu family is fine, the old Fan family in Nancheng, tsk, I'm afraid that I have to pack up quickly and move for my life.
From the old lady in the south of the city to the capital, that family, I heard that they were scared and didn't dare to go out, and you definitely don't know about the old lady and the old Fan family. ”
Momonon was a little proud of this gossip that only she knew.
"Yes." Li Ran leaned back in his chair and sighed heavily.
"Before Mrs. Sun took the poison, she talked about the life-saving grace of the cattle shopkeeper, and also said about the old Fan girl, the old beast's leg was broken by the old Fan family." Zhou E looked at Tao Nong and pulled the corners of her mouth down.
"Huh? Did you say that? This old lady ...... Alas! ”
Momonong sighed meaninglessly, and stayed for a moment before continuing: "What about that?" If the old Fan family wants to survive, they still have to run away quickly, it is the old Niu family, I see, let's run quickly.
The old lady in the south of the city, the bad things of the year, those that were shaken out, not to mention much, thirty percent of them are true, that is, the scum of the scum, and there is no humanity at all.
The old lady in the south of the city, in the past half a year's hard work, has become a big boss, holding a purple sand teapot every day, striding forward, eating, drinking and having fun everywhere.
Look at it, the spirit is very good, maybe I can live for another ten or eight years.
Tsk, what a scourge that lives for thousands of years. ”
"It's not a thousand years old, it's dead, and it's split in half with a knife."
Zhou E said that the knife was split in half, and her tone was quite pleasant.
"Whew!" After Momonong exclaimed, he laughed out loud, "Who split it?" I've seen Mrs. Wu, but she doesn't look like a person who can split people, Uncle Zhongyong? ”
Zhou E glanced at her and didn't answer.
Tao Nong looked at Zhou E, and then looked at Li Ran.
"It doesn't seem to be Uncle Zhongyong, he is about reluctant, what is his father. No matter who chopped it, just chop it to death.
It seems that Lao Fan's family and Lao Niu's family don't need to move and run for their lives, it's good! ”
Momok looked very pleasant.
Sister Xi took a few side dishes that Tao Nong bought and put them on the table.
Zhou E leaned over and looked at it, and sighed, "I don't want to eat anymore, do you have any wine?" ”
Zhou E straightened up and raised her voice into the kitchen to ask.
"Yes, yes, I just sent more than a dozen jars of good Yuquan wine yesterday, Sister Xi, look at the pot."
Sister-in-law Wu responded, came out in three steps and two steps, and went to the inverted seat to move a small jar of wine out.
"I also want to have a few glasses of wine, and if I don't eat the meal, you can just stir-fry a few snacks." Momono followed.
Sister-in-law Wu responded repeatedly, and told Sister Xi to go out and buy a few more vegetables and meat, and she was busy preparing snacks in the kitchen.
Zhou E slapped open the wine jar, Tao Nong stood up, took the wine jug and glass, and poured three glasses of wine.
Li Ran held the cup in both hands and drank half a cup with her head up.
All three of them drank well and were in a bad mood.
Li Ran lowered her eyes, drank one sip after another, Zhou E raised her head for a glass, was stunned for a while, and then raised her head for a glass, Tao Nong poured wine next to each other, poured a round, held the cup, raised it to Li Ran, and then raised it to Zhou E, sighed, and raised her head to drink.
After a while, a small jar of two or three catties of Yuquan wine was drunk.
Li Ran felt a little drunk, her head rested on the back of her hand, and she didn't move.
Zhou E was stunned for a while, slapped on the arm of the chair, looked at Tao Nong, and said angrily: "You said that she is such a person, how can she be stupid like this?"
This is so angry that he poisoned himself to death, what is this? What is this called?
You say that you are not afraid of death, so you can't poison the enemy to death? All fucking poisoned!
If you are so angry, you will poison yourself, what is this called?
How could this man be so stupid? ”
"That's it, if I, the old lady in the south of the city, rushed over with a few people, and stabbed him to death on the spot, what would I do? How can it be so unproductive? Killed myself.
Fortunately, the old lady was also hacked, otherwise, wouldn't that make way for the enemy? ”
"She's ...... The heart is dead. ”
Li Ran raised her head and leaned back into the chair with a sad expression.
"Didn't she say it, her son said, without him, how can there be him, just rush this, he should honor him."
Li Ran's words paused, and he looked sarcastic, and after a moment, he continued:
In Uncle Zhongyong's mansion, about everyone is persuading her, and everyone thinks that she is not generous, stubborn, and does not think about her children and grandchildren.
Everyone thinks, no matter what, it is also his father, their grandfather, no matter how they are all a family, why can't she be generous, why can't she raise her hand and let the family reunite and celebrate?
People outside will probably persuade her: It's all over, what should be put down is still to be put down, no matter how it is, it is still a blood relative. Be generous, be forgiving, be compassionate.
You may also say that as a woman, you have to be submissive, men are like this, even if you don't think about your man, you have to think about your son and your grandson, and your son can't live without a father.
She can kill that scumbag, but what should she do with her past suffering, that hatred, and now this grievance and anger?
She's not unproductive, she's just, too angry, too aggrieved, too desperate. ”
Tao Nong and Zhou E sat in silence for a long time, Zhou E hung her head and stood up, "The wine is gone, I'll go get the jar of wine again." ”
Sister-in-law Wu and Sister Xi removed the cooked food on the table and put a few light snacks on the table.
Momonon picked up his chopsticks, spun around and ate in a circle, and then again.
Zhou E reopened a jar of wine, drank four or five glasses in one go, and slapped the cup on the table, "When I killed people back then, someone came to persuade me, saying that I am not what I used to be, and let me be generous."
I told him that I stripped him naked, called a team, not many, ten people, one by one, he could lift his pants, laugh, shake hands and unveil it, then I also unveiled it generously.
If I let people let his daughter-in-law and his daughter die in front of him, if he can expose it magnanimously, then I can too. ”
"To you!" Momonong leaned over and touched the cup against Zhou E's cup.
Li Ran also raised a glass to Zhou E.
"Persuade people to be generous, and the sky will thunder." Zhou E picked up the cup and raised her head to drink.
