Chapter 128: Final Judgment
"Get out of here!" Sheng Yanqing roared in a deep voice, he stood up, pushed away the servant who was guarding on one side, and ran towards the door.
When I opened the door, I saw the old lady's gloomy face.
"You all go down." The old lady said, and she went straight to a stool and sat down.
The door of the ancestral hall was carefully closed, and the old lady looked at Sheng Yanqing who was angry, her eyes were as deep as an ancient well, without any waves.
Old Madam Sheng has passed the age of sixties, her hair is full of silver threads and meticulously combed, and her back is as straight as a cane in her hand.
The old lady had a kind face, and when she spoke, the smile lines at the corners of her mouth rippled from time to time, and her eyes narrowed into a crescent shape, which was amiable, and the juniors of the Sheng family liked her very much.
But today, the old lady was shrouded in a murderous aura, like the cold of the recent spring, cold to the bones.
She looked at Sheng Yanqing with deep eyes, and spoke slowly, "The matter between you and the Shen family is in an uproar, and those rumors outside can't deter you, and at this point today, you can't hide it anymore." ”
"Grandmother...... It's not like that's out there! Sheng Yanqing's tone was categorical.
The old lady raised her eyes and glanced at Sheng Yanqing deeply, she snorted coldly, "You can fool others, but you can't fool my wife, is it true that I am old and frail, and my eyes are also blind?" ”
Sheng Yanqing no longer argued, his thick eyebrows twisted together.
Suddenly, he turned around and knelt down in front of the old lady.
There were dark waves surging in his glass-like eyes, "Grandmother, I have a good impression of Ayu, but we have never done anything to ruin the family style." begged grandmother to let her go this time for the sake of Ayu's dedication to the Sheng family tea house. ”
Sheng Yanqing has a tall figure, his eyes are sparse and his eyebrows are sparse, his face is like a jade crown, he has a graceful bearing, and there is a little general bookish anger in his speech and demeanor.
His appearance is somewhat similar to the previous head of the Sheng family.
Mrs. Sheng lost her son in middle age, and every time she saw the shadow of her deceased son in Sheng Yanqing, she really loved this grandson.
"Confused!" Old Madam Sheng's crutches poked the ground heavily, and she coughed involuntarily as she spoke too quickly and quickly.
Sheng Yanqing wanted to help, but the old lady raised her hand to stop him.
She took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, and said very slowly: "The Shen family is not guilty of a capital crime, but you shouldn't be entangled, you shouldn't be entangled with her." You are the one who will take over the Sheng family in the future, my wife is fighting for her life, and she will never let anyone ruin your future, and you must not have any stain on your body. ”
"Grandmother! Ayu can't die! Sheng Yanqing's calm eyes were surging, and there was a kind of earth-shaking and unrepentant determination.
Soon, this resoluteness was replaced by chagrin and loss, and the person he didn't want to harm the most was her, but he didn't expect that she would be punished for him after all.
The old lady had already stood up, and she nodded to the family outside the door.
The door creaked and was closed again.
Just after the cold wave, the lotus pond at night was still surrounded by cold wind.
Shen Yu was dressed in thin clothes, she stood quietly by the lotus pond, followed by several relatives of the Sheng family clan.
The men watched from a distance with torches in their hands, while the women gathered around Shen Yu with resentful eyes.
Someone said: "How did our Sheng family marry such a mourning star, with a seductive goblin face, not to mention her husband, but also to hook up with her brother-in-law." ”
Another humane: "She is not Miss Shen at all, who will show this picture of Cheng Tianjiao, waiting for a man to cherish it?" At the beginning, the Shen family drove her out to avoid the disaster star. ”
"That's it, what kind of identity does she have, she still dares to delusionally climb high, the second master is the future head of the family, and she is also worthy."
……
The sound of abuse behind him was endless, and Shen Yu turned her head suddenly, her ice-like eyes sharpened.
She had a heavy hemp rope tied to her hands, and the hem of her skirt fluttered in the wind.
"You say I'm a vixen, which eye saw me hook up with someone else? It's just enough to slander me, and you dare to slander the second master, are you tired of staying in Qingshui Town? ”
She raised her eyes and looked at a few men holding torches not far away, "What is the difference between you setting up a private court to ignore people's lives, and killing people and setting fires?" Don't think that Qingshui Town is the sky, the police department of Qingshui Town doesn't care, there is Tongcheng, and then in the future, there is the Nanjing government, do you really think you can escape responsibility? ”
Most of the people in Qingshui Town, like Shen Yu in the past, have stayed in the town since they were born and have never seen the world.
When she mentioned the Nanjing Military Government, the people of the clan looked at each other with uncertain expressions on their faces.
In these days, the common people are afraid of bandits, and they are also afraid of the army, and everyone is afraid of getting into trouble for no reason.
Shen Yu stood by the lotus pond, her cheeks were red in the firelight, and two steps in front of her was the bottomless lotus pond, but there was no fear on her face.
Her calmness, in the eyes of others, is a bamboo in her chest.
Several slightly older uncles were discussing in a whisper, and suddenly a woman's voice in the crowd said: "This is the order of Old Madam Sheng, and there is still the Sheng family if something happens." But if she can't die today, you don't want to continue to earn a living in Qingshui Town. ”
The woman's voice was slightly old, as if she was the same age as Tao's mother, but her voice was much louder.
Everyone turned their heads to look at the woman.
Shen Yu stood in front of a full crowd of people, and she vaguely saw that the woman was wearing a black cloak, with a black hood on the cloak, and a heavy shadow pressed on her face.
This woman was heart-wrenching, and the clan was immediately bold, walked up to Shen Yu, and stretched out her hand to push her into the lotus pond.
Shen Yu was trying to carry it with all her strength, when a gunshot suddenly rang out not far away.
Immediately afterward, a dozen masked men armed with spears and dressed in black surrounded the people by the lotus pond.
Before Shen Yu could figure out the situation, a man grabbed her arm, pulled her out, and got into the carriage.
There was a whistle in the carriage, and the man with the gun watched the carriage go away, and then withdrew his hand and followed.
The people by the lotus pond looked at each other for a long time, and then looked up at an old man standing in the pavilion not far away.
"Third uncle, what can I do? Someone actually robbed that **, how can we deal with it? ”
"She committed a capital crime and did not accept punishment obediently, and colluded with outsiders to escape, which has never happened before."
As the patriarch of the Sheng family, the third uncle, Sheng Ting, gently stroked his white goatee, and said with a sneer: "The Shen family was arguing with us just now, this time, her charges are confirmed, and I will sue the police station, and she can't say anything." ”
