Chapter 16: The Law of the Family
"I'm the concubine of Taifu! It's a county lord of the same rank as your wife! You dare! Song Xi was protected by a few maids, and shouted with his back against the door, "Tong Shanshan! You fatherless and motherless star! How dare you hit me! My cousin is the Queen Mother! β
"Anything else?" Shanshan tilted his head slightly and asked Su Qi, only his eyes fell on Song Xi, which was extremely cold, "She was too noisy just now to hear what you said." β
Su Qi sighed and said, "It's nothing, it's just that you don't do it yourself, I'll be measured, I'll come." β
"It's late, Rouge has already gotten started." Shanshan sat on the main seat without moving, and pointed in the direction of Song Xi with his chin, "You go and stop it, don't let Rouge really kill her, after all, it's still a baby bump of whom." β
After all, Song Xi grew up in a literati family, and the maids around him were all non-martial arts, unlike Rouge, who grew up in the arsenal with Shanshan, and a man with ordinary strength may not be able to compare, except for no measure, everything is good, no, as soon as he slapped down, Song Xi's face immediately swollen, but it scared Rouge.
When Su Qi was pushed away, Rouge said aggrievedly: "I didn't expect her to be so unbeaten......"
After Rouge took advantage of the chaos to kick Song Xi a few times, the person fainted without saying a word.
Su Qi, who had rolled up his sleeves and hadn't started beating people, looked at Rouge.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, I didn't make a heavy hand, so I couldn't get angry but wanted to be angry again." Rouge innocently blinked his big eyes with sincerity.
Shanshan laughed: "Don't be like doing willow work (talking cross talk), okay, she will wake up as soon as we leave......
Before the words fell, the sound of slamming the door outside the door and the voice of Mrs. Pan sounded one after another: "Tong Shanshan! Open the door for me! β
"Yo, there's even a tip-off?" The smile on Shanshan's face calmed down again, and he stood up from the main seat and said, "The anger is also out, open the door." β
"But......" Rouge said worriedly, "in case the old lady ......"
It's no matter what if, it's definitely going to be scolded.
As soon as Mrs. Pan entered the door, she saw Song Xi who was dead on the ground, and she almost didn't come up in one breath, and pointed to the unrepentant Shanshan who trembled for a long time before she said angrily: "A housewife! You're a housewife! You can't mess with the big things that the sky is falling! But what do you do now? Is this a housewife's doing? Good jealousy, chaotic family, which one is not enough to divorce a wife! β
Shanshan didn't have any expression: "The daughter-in-law knows her mistake." β
It's almost like to follow up with the sentence "and don't change".
"Who's doing it?" Mrs. Pan glanced at the marks on Song Xi's face, almost fainted, barely stood firm, took a breath and asked, "I asked who moved the hand!" β
Rouge knelt down and said, "Old lady, it's me." β
"I knew it was you again!" Old Madam Pan said angrily, "Isn't there anyone up and down the general's mansion who understands the rules?" If you don't persuade your master to do the wrong thing, you dare to help the abuse! β
"The old lady is angry, it was Aunt Song who made the mistake first, and my wife is just punishing." Su Qi knelt down with Rouge, "It's not our right to change the family law to a slap without authorization." β
"There's a clever one." Old Madam Pan said angrily, "Since you are so smart and know how to steal beams and change pillars, why didn't you stop your master at the beginning?" β
The person lying down on the ground woke up leisurely at this time, crying and begging for mercy: "Madam, don't beat the concubine, the concubine shouldn't let the little maid go to the door to meet you, the concubine will go to make pastries for you...... Don't ...... hit."
Rouge was angry, and he was about to get up from the ground and make up for a few more kicks, but he was pulled by Su Qi.
"Old lady forgive! My wife's ears are soft, today in the temple to listen to people's mouths, nest fire, when I came back and met Aunt Song's little maid did not know the etiquette, said that my wife did not tolerate people, I just wanted to send people back to let Aunt Song take care of people, but the two of us were angry and quarreled with Aunt Song, and we also moved...... The old lady was punished. Su Qi pinched Rouge's wrist and took her to plead guilty.
Old Madam Pan glanced at Su Qi approvingly, and said with a sigh of relief: "In this way, the sin lies with the two of you, Granny Long, take them down to receive punishment, such a girl is too ignorant of the rules!" β
"Mother, I told them to beat me." Shanshan stopped the mother-in-law who stepped forward, stood next to Su Qi and the others, and said calmly, "The reason for beating her is not a small girl, it is because she should be beaten." β
Hear this! Is it a housewife to say? It's like some kind of market hooligan said! Mrs. Pan hated iron and said, "Who in your eyes should not be beaten?" Prime Minister Li Pi, you want to fight, who else do you say you don't want to fight? β
"You said she shouldn't be beaten without asking the reason, do you think I'm being unreasonable, and everyone else has rules?"
"Madame!" No matter how fast Su Qi reacted, he couldn't stop Shanshan from choking.
Mrs. Pan also got angry: "Yes! At least Song Xi didn't move and lock the door and buckle people with people at every turn! Speaking of which, you still don't want to admit your mistakes, okay, I'll take care of you today! Someoneβ"
"Old lady, things have to start from yesterday, old lady ......" Su Qi knelt down a few steps, and was about to explain, but was stopped by Shanshan.
After glancing at each other, Su Qi opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything, no matter whether yesterday's events were successful or not, he was always ashamed to say it, especially now that no one has any evidence.
"What are you doing? Go to the ancestral hall and ask for family law! Mrs. Pan said angrily.
Pan Yan hurriedly stepped aside and made way for Granny Long.
The people in the house except for those in Xiangyun Yuan all moved, and those who went to the ancestral hall went to the ancestral hall to prepare the family law, but it was Shanshan who stood aside and was very idle. Song Xi had already been helped up at this time, she patted the ash on her knees, walked over with the swollen face of a pig's head, and cried the mouse: "Madam is wronged, I blame the concubine for not knowing what to do, I am afraid that you will be cold to the bones, so I sent someone to bring you a bowl of hot soup." β
Shanshan looked at her calmly, today's incident was her fault from beginning to end, and she was angry, there was nothing wronged, the only grievance was the attitude of the old lady, but it was not a big deal.
Thinking like this, seeing Song Xidu, he felt that he had seen it more thoroughly, and Shanshan wondered, "Why are you so happy?" Doesn't your face hurt? β
Song Xi smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said expressionlessly: "Madame has the heart to care for me, it is better to care for yourself, you will be more painful than me later." β
Shanshan raised his eyebrows, thought about it and nodded, "Yes." β
As he was talking, someone came to say: "Madam, please go to the ancestral hall." β
Shanshan sighed and walked towards the ancestral hall with bitter hatred.
Song Xi, who has not seen the family law yet, is particularly excited, even if his face is swollen and unpresentable, he has to follow behind with a veil, saying that he can't bear to be punished by Shanshan, and as a younger sister, he doesn't want to go to Yunyun, even if Shanshan says several times that she will regret going, she is still unmoved, and she has to go.
Since this is the case, Shanshan is too lazy to talk to Song Xi.
But the more Song Xi walked, the more he felt that something was wrong, didn't he go to the ancestral hall? Why is it that the flowers and plants in this ancestral hall are better than those planted in her yard? There is also the lamp under this corridor, even if the candle flame is strong, there are flowers and plants painted on the lampshade, not only does it not look like an ancestral hall but it looks like a leisure place.
Walking into the ancestral hall with questions, Song Xi felt that something was wrong, the ancestral hall was brightly lit, the charcoal fire was booming, as soon as you entered the door, you could see the hanging Jintong lotus lamp, under the lamp was the position of the spirit card of the ancestors of the Pan family, there were offerings in front of the incense case, and then there were two futons, much thicker than ordinary futons, the surface was still similar to animal fur such as fox skin, it was extraordinarily soft to look at, and the candle flame of the incense case was separated by a bamboo curtain three or four steps away from a low long table, and the door could not see clearly, Only dimly visible, the old lady and others were sitting inside and waiting.
"Not coming in yet?" Mrs. Pan said.
Shanshan walked in slowly, and reluctantly and consciously knelt down in front of the long table, and Song Xi saw that there were also a few futons that were the same as the outside.
"Okay, go to the family law."
Song Xi ignored those unreasonable places, clenched his handkerchief and waited for the family law to come up, and thought while suppressing the rise of the corners of his mouth, Pan Yueqing will only come back if he lights the blessing lamp for a day, even if he protects you again, he can't save you!
I didn't be happy for long, I saw Granny Long holding a tray less than ten inches up, and when she looked at it, there were several pieces of paper, ink, pen and inkstone on the tray, and before Song Xi could react, she heard Shanshan wail: "Mother, can't I be wrong?" Why is it not only punished for kneeling, but also copying books? β
The serious and iron-faced old lady Pan said angrily: "Punishment of kneeling is commonplace, now you are not afraid of kneeling, if you don't add more, you will have to do it?" I dare to go to the house and uncover the tiles! β
Song Xi still doesn't understand anything, she was beaten in vain! Mrs. Pan turned out to be a thunderous and rainy! Tong Shanshan beat himself up, and the so-called family law is copying books! No wonder she has no fear, and dares to come to the door to beat people without evidence!
Song Xi was so angry that he almost fainted.
In fact, Shanshan didn't expect Mrs. Pan to do this time, the family law of the Pan family is of course not such a simple thing as kneeling in the ancestral hall to copy books, but the family law is generally in the school field, if it is in the ancestral hall, it is a trivial matter of copying books. So as soon as Mrs. Pan said that she would go to the ancestral hall, Shanshan's side quieted down and didn't argue about anything.
However, seeing that Song Xi was so happy, Shanshan thought about it, and her face was a little heavy, so she was empathetic and didn't explain, she wanted to make her happy for a few more days, who knew that she had to come along, no, she could only be happy for a while.
However, although this method is painless and intentional favoritism for Song Xi, it is a real headache for Shanshan.
Shanshan, who copied books for a while and played for a while, threw down the pen and shouted tired for the one hundred and eighth time: "Do you have to copy so much, this is all a day of preparation." β
Su Qi coaxed her while grinding ink: "You can rest at night, and if you copy some more tomorrow, you can leave the ancestral hall." β
What kind of human suffering is it?
Shanshan sighed, lay on the desk and did not speak.
It's better to go to the school yard and get a few whips.
