149 The Truth of the Past
Aunt Lian smiled and saluted him: "Master Zhu." ”
Zhu Xizhou looked at Xu Wanxi's back, hesitated for a moment, and walked over.
"Miss Xu Er."
Xu Wanxi looked back at him with some hesitation.
"I left with my grandfather today, passing through here, and I came to bid farewell to Miss Xu Er." The boy's voice was clear.
Xu Wanxi nodded, her voice was slightly hoarse, and her eyes were slightly red.
"May Mr. Zhu and Mr. Zhu arrive home safely."
Zhu Xizhou saw that although she barely knew the etiquette, she seemed to have lost her vitality and liveliness on weekdays, thinking of the rumors she heard last night, and she couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in her heart.
My grandfather resigned in advance because he felt that he had inadvertently snooped on other people's family affairs, intending to avoid it.
"Miss Xu Er, in life, nine times out of ten things that are not satisfactory, there is no need to miss the present for the sake of old things."
Xu Wanxi was a little surprised, and he would suddenly comfort himself.
She nodded, lowered her eyes and didn't speak.
Zhu Xizhou bowed and left.
Xu Wanxi subconsciously turned her head to look at his back, and couldn't help muttering in a low voice: "How old are you, you know that nine times out of ten things in life are not satisfactory......
But then I thought that I had heard my grandfather say that he grew up with his grandfather when his parents died when he was a child......
What a poor nerd.
"What time is it?" Xu Wanxi's eyes were still a little sloppy and asked.
"Back girl, it's almost time." Aunt Lian said softly: "Girl, it's time for us to go back and have a morning meal." ”
Xu Wanxi got up and shook her head.
Aunt Lian felt uneasy in her heart.
Since the accident with Nawan, the girl has not eaten for two days.
"Then the slave maid sent someone to invite Miss Zhang to talk to the girl, okay?" Aunt Lian asked softly.
The girl didn't cry last night, but the more she did, the more uncomfortable she must have been.
Xu Wanxi shook her head again.
"I'm going to find Vera......"
She really didn't want to stay in this seemingly prosperous and stable Dingguo Mansion right now.
……
Today, the private school is closed, and Zhang Meishou doesn't have to go to the private school, but he still gets up early in the morning.
Ah Li and Mian went out early in the morning, but they didn't return yet, so Ah Dou combed Zhang Meishou's hair.
In the past, when Ah Dou was still a big girl, he took care of Zhang Meishou's daily life every day, so he also combed his hair well.
She pulled a small bun for Zhang Meishou today, and was about to get the pair of white jade bell hairpins, but was restrained by Zhang Meishou, "Change the pair of silk lilacs." ”
The jingling gadget was really noisy, and I don't know why she loved it so much when she was young.
"Girl, Miss Xu Er is here." A maid suddenly came in and said.
Zhang Meishou was slightly taken aback and immediately got up.
"Come in, please."
As soon as Xu Wanxi came in and saw her, she showed a look of crying and laughing.
"Speaking of refinement, I lost to you today." She tugged at the corner of her skirt.
She was in a hurry to get out, and she didn't have the heart to dress up.
Zhang Meishou shook his head helplessly, pulled one of her hands, and pulled the person to the inner room to speak.
Ah Dou got Zhang Meishou's order and retreated, and the green bamboo curtain fell silently.
"Didn't you say that I would go to see you today? Why did you come to me so early in the morning? Zhang Meishou asked as he looked at her expression.
In her two lifetimes, she rarely saw this girl so lonely and complicated.
is as delicate as Xu Wanxi, it is a character who has to dress up when he takes people to smash the courtyard of the husband's concubine's room.
As soon as she asked, Xu Wanxi couldn't help but puff her mouth, and her eyes suddenly turned a little red, but she couldn't hold back her tears, and only said: "Zhen Zhen, do you know that the person who wanted to poison my grandmother was actually my mother-in-law's personal mother-in-law who had to be used before her death." ”
The servant woman had seen her in the kitchen, and had taken her hand and said strange things.
Last night, she kept kowtowing to herself, saying that she was doing this to avenge her mother......
"She said that my mother was not killed four years ago, but by her grandmother." When Xu Wanxi said these words, her eyes were no longer shocked, but her voice was still a little trembling.
The Duchess of Dingguo died early in the previous life, so these things were not brought out in the previous life, and at this time, Zhang Meishou was also very surprised.
"Is this true?"
If it is true, why did the Duchess of Dingguo kill her daughter-in-law?
"I don't know." Xu Wanxi shook her head helplessly, and after a pause, she suddenly looked at Zhang Meishou, "Zhen Zhen, there are some things I have never told others, I don't want to hide it from you today, but you have to promise me that you will never say it, okay?" ”
Zhang Meishou nodded seriously.
"Actually, my mother's illness was not an ordinary illness in foreign languages, but a madness that would flare up from time to time...... Since I was born, my mother has been confined to the yard and cannot go out, and sometimes she goes crazy, even me and my brother do not recognize me. She talks nonsense, and often hurts others and herself, which is really terrible. But when she is sober, she will feel extremely guilty and blame herself. ”
She has vague memories when she was young, and she often loves and fears her mother.
Zhang Meishou didn't speak.
This secret had already been told to her in the previous life. This girl has never been able to hide any secrets in front of her, and she is not exaggerating at all, and she knows everything Wanxi knows.
Wanxi's biological mother, Nan, is not a high-ranking daughter, but an orphan girl, it is said that she was saved by the prince of Dingguo by chance, and the two formed a fate - the prince of Dingguo was determined to marry her as his wife, and it is still impressive to this day.
But outsiders secretly said that Nan's background was low, and he couldn't bear this love, so he became seriously ill after giving birth to his daughter, and finally died early after lingering on the sickbed for several years.
Only a very few people in the Dingguo Mansion knew that the Nan clan was suffering from an unsightly madness.
"The mother-in-law said that my grandmother didn't like my mother's high climbing and dragging my father down, and she had been trying to treat my mother in every way. My mother became insane because she was mad at her grandmother during confinement...... Because of this, the mother could no longer appear in front of people, and the grandmother was even more murderous, wanting to get rid of the mother and then let the father marry another high-ranking woman.
She said her mother had been poisoned by her grandmother. ”
Do you believe these words? Does she have proof? Zhang Meishou asked.
Xu Wanxi said noncommittally: "After her reminder like this, I also vaguely remember that it was not long after my grandmother left my mother's yard that my mother was gone...... I remember it well. ”
"That doesn't necessarily prove that your mother was a victim of your grandmother." Zhang Meishou's tone is objective.
"But after the mother-in-law finished speaking, for the sake of Mingzhi, she was killed on the spot......" Xu Wanxi said this, her lips were a little pale.
Zhang Meishou sighed in his heart.
is also determined to die - fooling her stupid child has no heart.
