Chapter 127: Old Confused
"You ......"
The old patriarch was obviously shocked by the news, and glared at a few nephews who showed a weak face, and wanted to open his mouth to blame, but in a flash, he saw Yu Wanning and Ye Xinmei, two daughters with a calm attitude.
Then he reacted that this was not the time to blame the clansmen, in such a situation, as the patriarch, he could only defend his family to the end.
So he turned around again, looked at Yu Wanning and said: "So that's the case, the old man knows it today, but even so, but Qiao's family, as the daughter-in-law of the Lu family, does not abide by women's morality, does not observe festivals for her deceased husband, and fornicates with others. ”
"Hmm."
Yu Wanning nodded casually, lowered his head and said, "If the truth is really as you said, patriarch, then I really can't say much, but since the matter has come to this point, I have to ask a question." ”
She raised her head, stared at the patriarch of the Lu clan with a pair of mighty phoenix eyes and said, "Tell me, who is Qiao Fuzi fornicating with?" Who is the adulterer? What is the evidence? Where are the witnesses? If you make it clear, Miss Ben will get up and go away immediately, and if you can't show it, I will definitely ask you for an explanation today. ”
"Hmm."
The old patriarch sank his face a little, glanced at the middle-aged man who had just spoken to him, and said, "Such a family ugliness should not be publicized, but since this daughter is a student of the Qiao family, if she has to come to ask, then tell her." ”
In fact, the old patriarch didn't know the inside story of this matter, he just heard that someone from the juniors came to denounce it, saying that Qiao's fornication, he immediately became angry, but because of his old age and frailty, he didn't bother to ask carefully, so he asked someone to open the ancestral hall, and the clansmen collegially convicted her directly, and let Qiao's sink into the pond.
So now that Yu Wanning asked, although he felt that the ugliness of his family should not be publicized, he was afraid of Yu Wanning's identity, so he wanted people to make it clear to her, and she would not interfere anymore.
It's just that he doesn't know that the so-called non-observance of women's morality is just the nonsense that the juniors in his clan covet other people's houses, and there is no evidence at all, let alone no witnesses.
"This ...... Seventh Uncle ......"
The man's face was so embarrassed that he couldn't speak for a long time.
The old patriarch was impatient for a while, so he said sternly: "You are also an old man, so you can talk lively." ”
"Yes."
The middle-aged man lowered his head, and his lips moved for a long time before he made a sound: "Actually...... The nephew doesn't know the details of this matter, these are all said by the Baohe brothers, and the real inside story is about a few of them who know best. ”
"Then let them come." The old patriarch said with some annoyance.
"But ......"
The middle-aged man looked at the old patriarch, then at Yu Wanning and Ye Xinmei, and said in his heart: Uncle is really old and confused, could it be that he didn't see anything outside when he entered the door?
"Since none of you, as elders, know the inside story, let it be clear."
Yu Wanning smiled coldly and ordered the government soldiers who were still guarding her side at this time: "Go, bring in those pickled things outside." ”
"Yes."
When the soldiers heard this, they bowed down and went out.
The patriarch of the Lu clan heard Yu Wanning call his family's children and grandchildren "pickled things", and he was very unhappy in his heart, but he was afraid of the power of the Yu family, and he didn't dare to deal with Yu Wanning, so he had to snort coldly in his heart and say your teacher's filthy behavior for a while, I see where your yellow-haired girl's face is still going.
Lu Baohe and the others were soon kicked and brought in, unkempt and embarrassed and thrown to the ground.
The man glanced at the patriarch, and then said angrily to the sons and nephews on the ground: "Let's talk about it, what's going on, just now the daughter of the Yu family asked, who did the Qiao family commit adultery with, where is the evidence, and where is the witness?" If you go back to the house yourself. ”
After that, he sat down on the side with some negative anger, in fact, he already knew the bottom of this matter, and knew that these goods couldn't say why.
Therefore, he was angry and glared at Lu Baohe fiercely.
Heart: You kid coveted other people's houses, poured dirty water on others, and now you want to hurt Lao Tzu to follow you to eat melons.
At this time, he really regretted his intestines, why should he covet Lu Baohe's idea for a little benefit, and make himself fishy.
"This ......"
Lu Baohu, Lu Baolin and other brothers glanced at each other, all of them speechless.
How do they know who the adulterer is? How do they know where the evidence is?
A few of them just took Lu Baohe's two taels of silver, and then went to make trouble, thinking about Qiao's orphans and widows, bullying is also bullying, not only do they get the benefits of Lu Baohe, maybe they can also grab some useful good things in Qiao's house.
At this time, let them say, what can they say?
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The old patriarch was so angry by these juniors that he felt that he was obscene and timid, which made his face gloomy, so he was a little annoyed, and knocked the crutches in his hand on the ground a few times.
He said angrily: "Let you speak, and then you will speak, you look at him, what does he see you do?" Dumb one by one? Is there a man who looks like a man? ”
Lu Baolin saw that the patriarch was angry, and knew that he couldn't pretend to be confused anymore, so he secretly glanced at Lu Baohe.
Xindao: Don't blame my brother for not carrying it for you, I really can't hold it.
He gritted his teeth, took two steps forward, kowtowed to the old patriarch and said: "Seventh Uncle Ancestor, in fact, the grandchildren are not very clear about this matter, and they were all said by the Baohe East family and the West family at first, so he is the first to know the inside story here, and he is also the clearest." ”
Lu Baohe: "......"
What about the siblings who said they were good? Sold him so soon? In vain, Lao Tzu also gave you two more old hens.
"Speak."
The old patriarch glared at Lu Baohe impatiently.
"This ...... I ......"
Lu Baohe's face was blue and red for a while, and he stammered for a long time before he stammered: "Seventh Uncle Ancestor, here's the thing, since Baoqing's death, Qiao's family is not good at being widowed at home, taking care of Lu Cheng, and even showed up to go to the General's Mansion, saying that it was to teach the daughter of the General's Mansion, but she is a widow, and she can do anything good if she goes to such a deep courtyard of Houmen?" So this is not a clear thing? ”
"I've asked you outside today."
Yu Wanning looked at Lu Baohe with a cold look in his eyes: "At this time, in front of your family and patriarch, I might as well say it again, in my general's mansion, there are only three serious male masters, my father, when the general of the dynasty; My elder brother is only thirteen years old this year, my younger brother is only seven years old, and the rest are soldiers and servants. ”
"This ......"
Lu Baohe's face turned red, and he argued: "People like you, ordinary people like me can't get in, God knows what good things Qiao's is doing inside." ”
"So, that's all your speculation?" Yu Wanning asked with a cold face.
Lu Baohe: "......"
He was speechless for a moment, so he turned his attention to the elderly patriarch for help.
