Chapter 43: Red Willow's Revenge
It's been almost half a month since this happened, Hongliu listened to her mother's words, and has been embroidering dowries at home for half a month, no matter how big the fuss is, it's not her business anyway, she only cares if Wu Sanlang will come to marry her.
At the beginning, Hongliu Niang felt that even if Wu Sanlang didn't have much heart for Hongliu, she was afraid of Master Du's momentum, so she should have come to the door early to propose marriage. But half a month has passed, not only did Wu Sanlang not come over to propose marriage, but Hongliu Niang went to Master Du to say that her daughter's family affairs were also blocked by Master Du.
He was too fond of this daughter before, and a stepdaughter actually regarded herself as the real Miss Du family, causing such a trouble.
His own son knows how to be a man with his tail between his legs under the hands of the official, and if he manages this kind of temperament, he may not be able to make a big deal in the future. Master Du made up his mind to leave it alone, Hongliu Niang begged a few times and had no choice, she also had a son, and she was afraid that she would completely fall out of favor, and it would not be good to even take her son, so she didn't dare to say anything anymore.
Fortunately, on this day, the Zheng family finally came to the door with gifts, and both Hongliu and Hongliu Niang breathed a sigh of relief.
"Take a concubine!" Red willow's voice is incomparably sharp?
"Take a concubine, San Lang wants to take me as a concubine?"
Zheng was hurt by her noisy eardrums, "I don't accept you as a concubine, why don't you want to enter the door of my Wu family?" ”
She naturally wants to marry San Lang, but what she wants to do is San Lang's wife, not a concubine who can be sold at will and scolded by her mother! Hongliu looked at Zheng, "You said this is what San Lang meant, San Lang wants to take me as a concubine?" "He even wants to take her as a concubine, is what he said before all to coax her?
Zheng nodded, but Hongliu Niang was displeased, "Wu Sanlang is just a showman, our Hongliu is also an innocent daughter, why marry him as a concubine?" How much silver has Hongliu given to your family over the years, I, a mother, don't I know it, so I want to send our Hongliu like this? ”
"Mother-in-law, didn't I say it, didn't you see what the scene was that day, the red willows have been seen all, my San Lang will be an official in the future, how can there be such a wife?" Zheng said: "And no matter what, my San Lang never said that he wanted to marry Hongliu before, it was originally your daughter's wishful thinking, she was the daughter of a death row prisoner, San Lang was a scholar who went crazy to touch her, San Lang is kind-hearted, and he is willing to accept her as a concubine if something like this happens, you should be content." ”
Whoever heard this would be angry, what did Hongliu Niang quarrel about, Hongliu didn't hear it.
She felt that her heart was half cold, and the Saburo she was dedicated to had never thought of marrying her. Once some things are seen through, all the energy is gone, Hongliu looks at the mother who quarreled with the Zheng family more and more coldly, and it took a long time for her to reach out and hold her mother.
"Don't quarrel with you, San Lang is willing to marry me, I'm already very happy"
Hongliu had a stiff smile on her face, and looked at Zheng again, "I am willing to marry San Lang as a concubine." ”
Another word said: "I will serve my mother-in-law well, and if San Lang marries a wife in the future, I will also serve her well." ”
Zheng didn't hear the error in Hongliu's words, but raised his chin, "It's good to be like this earlier." ”
Hongliu Niang's face was full of anger, and Hongliu sat in place in a daze, not knowing what to think.
The marriage between the Wu family and the Du family was decided in this way, and the stepdaughter went to be a concubine for others, and Master Du didn't say anything, anyway, it was a scourge, and he burned high incense when he got married, anyway, it has nothing to do with his family in the future. However, because of Hongliu Niang, in the end, he also gave birth to a son, and it was the last time to think about it.
Master Du still gave Hongliu a lot of dowry, in fact, it is okay for the stepfather to do this, after all, Hongliu also caused such a big disaster.
——
Not long after the year, after all, Hongliu and Wu Sanlang had such a thing, and they were afraid that their stomachs would grow at home, and they would take a concubine, so they didn't need to make much pomp, and Hongliu got married in less than two months, and she was dressed in pink clothes and a small sedan chair, and she was carried out from the back door of the Du family.
Although Hongliu Niang was dissatisfied that her daughter had become someone else's concubine, whether it was a happy event to get married, or she was wearing a festive red dress, and she forced out a smiling face. However, this smiling face didn't last long, and at night, someone suddenly came to the yamen, and Hongliu poisoned the Wu family.
Wu Sanlang and the Zheng family died on the spot, and even the subordinates who took the Wu family to work died six.
The local county government has always been safe and sound, and nothing major has happened, but this time nearly ten people died in one fell swoop!
Hongliu was poisoned in the wine and food, she ate it herself and died on the spot, and if she couldn't catch Hongliu, then she could only blame her family. Although Master Du, as a stepfather, was not involved, he still entered the yamen, not to mention the commotion, and lost a lot of money to the relatives of the Wu family.
This time the red willow was completely disgusted, and even the feelings of the red willow lady were weakened, and the red willow lady was scolded when she wanted to burn paper for the red willow, "In the future, if you want to recognize this daughter, get out of the house!" ”
Hongliu Niang hugged her son and cried pitifully.
She suddenly remembered that after her original husband left, she wanted to marry Master Du, but she was married, but she didn't discipline her daughter well, and she made such a consequence now. Now that the people are gone, it is impossible to regret it, she still has a son, and she must live a good life.
As for Wu Sanlang's family, the main family died, and Wu Sanlang's relatives of the Wu family, as well as the relatives of the Zheng family's mother's family, came to divide the Wu family's property cleanly, but in the end, no one was willing to collect the bodies of these two people. Hongliu is okay, there is a mother who is worried, and the bad people buried it, Wu Sanlang and his mother's bodies are about to rot, and in the end there is really no way, the county government wants to collect the house, so they sent someone to bury the two of them.
Wu Sanlang was dead for half a month, his eyes were open, and he didn't understand until he died, how could a woman who loved him wholeheartedly and was coaxed by him dare to poison him?
Such a man who only cares about his career and treats women as tools never feels that he is wrong until he dies.
——
The Wu family was poisoned by Xinna's concubine, which is a big deal in a small place, and everyone knows about it, Hongliu has become a famous poisonous woman, and when she dies, she is used to scare disobedient children at night.
But Hui Niang felt a little uncomfortable when she heard this, I didn't kill Beren, and Beren died because of me.
Hongliu is indeed not a good thing, and it also killed the original owner, but she is still a little uncomfortable when she is really gone, and there are still ten people in a row, although the Wu family is hateful, but those subordinates are innocent, how can their children live without their family at this time?
Xuan Qi looked at this woman in a daze and knew that she was thinking a lot again, "Don't think about it, everyone in this world has a fate." ”
Hui Niang didn't pay attention to him, who said that she would forgive him now, and he kissed her before it was over.
"Why didn't Zhiyao see anyone", Hui Niang looked for a stubble, and looked back and forth in the house several times without seeing Shen Zhiyao, "It's strange, where did he go so early in the morning?" ”
Xuan Qichao knew it in his heart, but he understood that Shen Zhiyao probably didn't want Hui Niang to know, so he kept silent. Hui Niang took a piece of paper and began to write a recruitment post, now there are more patients in the hospital, and the amount of medicinal materials is also larger, not only that, there are always many big patients she can't hold, Shen Zhiyao is a scholar again, and her strength may not be as big as her.
"I want to ask him to write a job post, and when the key time comes, he will be gone?"
Hui Niang is big with the brush and ink, and she can say with her conscience that her words are okay, and the ancient traditional Chinese characters can also be recognized by the book, but this brush is uncomfortable, and she has not practiced, and she can't even recognize the glyphs when she writes out a big ink ball. After writing several pieces of paper, Xuan Qichao took the pen in her hand and said helplessly: "I'll come, you can read, and I will write." ”
Hui Niang saw him holding a pen and hanging his head, gritted her teeth, and finally endured it, writing a job notice first, and talking about the two of her later.
"You have to recruit four workers, otherwise it will be unsafe at night", there is something like Hongliu, Huiniang also put safety on her agenda, and her business is booming, and there will inevitably be thieves who are worried. Xuan San is not at home every day, and Shen Zhiyao is a weak scholar.
And Shen Zhiyao, who was nagged by Hui Niang, was really a house leak during this time, but it was raining.
He originally worked in the town, but later his sister opened a medical center and helped in the medical center. Hui Niang is a good person, since Shen Zhiyao can read, he has to provide Shen Zhiyao to continue reading, he has said this more than once, Shen Zhiyao, as a man, of course he doesn't want to let his sister keep him, so he also wants to find a job for himself.
But Liu Xiuqin's reputation is too big.
After the last sale of counterfeit medicines, most of the people in the town are familiar with her. Originally, it didn't involve Shen Zhiyao or anything, but Shen Zhiyao was seen by Liu Xiuqin when he was doing work, Liu Xiuqin now knows that Hui Niang is not easy to deal with, but Shen Zhiyao is afraid of a scholar.
Anyway, it was Xiucai who couldn't explain it when he met Bing, and he was pestered by Liu Xiuqin two or three times, but everyone nearby knew the relationship between the two.
Liu Xiuqin's character in the village and even in the town is already notorious, and even the people with the Shen family are not welcomed, although Shen Zhiyao is not her biological child, but he is also her son in name, so some people don't even have a good face for him.
Shen Zhiyao's temperament is a bit similar to Hui Niang, both sisters and brothers are so strong, although he sometimes goes to help in [Wonderful Hands Rejuvenation], but he usually spends his sister's money to buy books and papers, and he is very unhappy, so he has been writing letters to people on the street during this time, so as to earn a little money.
But now because of Liu Xiuqin, many people are reluctant to write to him, and they have lost their source of money, Shen Zhiyao is very frustrated and sad, but what is even more uncomfortable is that because of his stupidity, his sister has suffered so many bad things and troubles, and he is really useless!
Shen Zhiyao was very depressed for several days, Hui Niang saw it in her eyes, she knew that this younger brother had a lot more conscience than the two elder brothers, and he was also very ambitious, and she didn't blame him for the previous things, after all, he was young and easy to be used by bad guys.
"I see that you haven't read and written much in the past two days, haven't you abandoned your studies?" While sorting out the dried herbs, Hui Niang looked at Shen Zhiyao, who was sitting in a daze looking at the sky.
Shen Zhiyao sighed in frustration, "Sister, it's all my fault, I believe everything others say, I must stay vigilant in the future about things related to you, and I must not be used like this again, I ...... I'm so stupid! I've known Wu Saburo for so long, I didn't expect him to be such a person! ”
