Chapter 21: The Martyr of Xianghe County (4)

Master Bai laughed and played haha: "Eat, eat first, hey, I'm starving, this Xianghe County is very rich, it looks good all the way, haha is good." ”

Zengshou sneered: "The territory of Zhili is good, after all, it is a major place in Gyeonggi." ”

The smile that Mai Xian Lingsheng squeezed out became even stiffer, and he didn't know how to answer. Master Bai stretched out his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables, and said that it was delicious and delicious, and the adults ate first.

Luo Fan also ate with him, and his movements were deliberately rude, attracting everyone's attention to his side.

He didn't see Mai Xianling as a bad person, and he didn't want him to be so embarrassed by the villain's longevity.

Zengshou didn't let it go at all: "Mai County Order, how did Guo Niangzi die?" ”

"Hanged himself."

Mai Xianling put down his chopsticks and sighed, with tears faintly flashing in his eyes: "Such a woman who understands righteousness and affection to the fullest, but committed suicide by hanging herself on the second day of Guo Si's return, leaving a young woman for Guo Si to replace herself as a wife." When he said this, his tone became excited, "Such a good woman, what more could she ask for such a husband." Guo Niangzi is benevolent and righteous and cherishes her name, what is such a woman who is not a martyr? ”

Mai Xianling is a native of Guangdong, with slightly dark skin, round and big eyes, three-layer eyelids, and round eyes when looking at people, like a fried cat.

Zengshou felt that it was very interesting to tease him, and smiled: "In my opinion, this Guo Niangzi is the first stupid person in the world." Seeing that Mai County's order was about to blow up again, he said with a smile, "Guo Si is not benevolent, the two fathers and mothers of the Guo family are not good things, even if they have arms and legs, they can also reduce the burden of their daughter-in-law by begging for food, but you see, how can they have a little backbone, hide behind their daughter-in-law, and enjoy their daughter-in-law's selling money with peace of mind, and then what?" Why did Guo Niangzi die? If he, Guo Si, had a conscience, how could he let Guo Niangzi die? I think it was the Guo family who forced her to death. ”

Luo Fan couldn't help nodding and patted the table gently: "I think so." ”

Junko muttered in a low voice on the side: "Hmph, it's not that our master is smart, our master is right about everything." ”

"It's such an adult, and many neighbors can testify to this."

Mai County ordered to tell the story.

Just five days ago, Guo Si, who had been away from home for three years, suddenly returned. Or returned to his hometown in fine clothes, brought a lot of things, and wore silk and satin, and he looked like a rich man.

Guo's family was pleasantly surprised, and Mrs. Guo was so excited that she almost fainted.

Guo Niangzi roughly asked about Guo Si's situation, and it turned out that he had an adventure after leaving home, and he actually met a silk merchant in the south of the Yangtze River, and followed that person to do some business and earn a lot of money.

"Now that Xianggong is back, I can also explain it."

Guo Niangzi turned around and went back to the room as she spoke, and led a young woman out.

The woman was dressed in cloth and had a delicate appearance, and when she saw the strange man, she hurriedly turned away and was very shy.

"Don't be afraid, girl, this is what I told you before, our father-in-law." Guo Niangzi patted the woman's hand and told her to turn her head and meet Guo Si.

"Xianggong, this is the wife I found for you."

Guo Niangzi introduced.

Guo Si was stunned: Wife? If he is not at home, it is possible for Mrs. Guo to find him a concubine, but how can she be a wife.

Guo Niangzi shed tears: "Xianggong, you can ask your in-laws and neighbors about what I have done in the past three years to support my in-laws and take care of my son." ”

The Guo family's in-laws looked at each other, and Guo Si hurriedly walked over and asked, "Daddy, what's going on?" What does this mean, lady? ”

The Guo family's in-laws looked at their daughter-in-law and sighed long, not knowing what to say.

"My body is already dirty, I can't serve you as your wife, Sister Hongying was bought by me from a kidnapper, a clean yellow flower girl, I have been raising her at home, hiding from people outside, just for fear of being looked at, because my reputation has affected her, now that you are back, I can hand over Sister Hongying to you with peace of mind. Father, mother, you and Xianggong talk slowly, I'll go back to the room first. ”

Guo Niangzi said and turned around and left.

The woman said, "Sister, I'll go with you." ”

Guo Niangzi looked at the woman, shook her head and smiled slightly: "Xiaobao will be entrusted to you, you have to take good care of him." ”

With that, he turned around and walked to the inner room.

The mother-in-law of the Guo family saw that her daughter-in-law had entered the room, so she told what Guo Niangzi had done in the past three years with tears, and the mother-in-law finally said: "The neighbors also know about this matter, and you can just inquire about it." ”

Guo Si listened to the scalp and exploded: It turns out that the lady has done it for so many years...... Dark-!

What man can stand the grass on his head.

He slammed his fist hatefully on the crooked table at home, and Xiaobao in the woman's arms hadn't seen his father for several years.

Granny Guo regarded this grandson as a baby, and hurriedly rushed over and hugged and coaxed: "Xiaobao, this is your father, your father is back." ”

"Si'er, you can't blame your daughter-in-law for this, alas, you also know what is going on in our family, my mother and I always have to eat, my daughter-in-law has suffered too many grievances, you can't blame her, without her, grass grows on my and your mother's grave."

Guo Siru woke up from a dream, knowing that he was at fault first, and hurriedly ran to the inner room to see his wife, but when he went in, he found that Guo Niangzi had fallen on the beam of the house and was out of breath.

"That's the thing, Guo Niangzi hanged herself, and before she died, she left the girl named Hongying and handed it over to Guo Si as his wife."

"What a strange woman!" Luo Fan poured a glass of wine, "When the float is white!" ”

Mai County Ling sympathized with each other: "The adult is really even a sincere gentleman." ”

Master Bai also took the cup in a funny way, took a small sip, rolled his eyes, and finally fixed on Zengshou's face, the latter thoughtfully, the corners of his mouth slightly pursed.

"Do you think anything else?" Master Bai is the best at observing words and feelings.

Shunzi picked up the wine jug and poured wine for Zengshou: "Master, drink some, this wine is not good, but it can be regarded as wine, so I can barely use it." ”

Luo Fan said in his heart, this pair of masters and servants are so uncomfortable, and they are awkward to death.

"Are you so sure that Guo Niangzi hanged herself?"

"This is what the Guo family's parents, Guo Si, and that Hongying can all testify to."

"There are so many things to hide for relatives, God knows what they are telling the truth, and that Hongying, are you sure that it was really Guo Niangzi who prepared for Guo Si?"

"The neighbors of the Guo family don't know that this person exists, but the two old people of the Guo family said very clearly, after Hongying was bought, she was raised by Guo Niangzi in the inner room, and she didn't show it to others, and it was not unusual for everyone to not know."

Mai explained: "These have been well documented. ”

"Who did Hongying buy it from, how much money did it cost, and where was the deed of sale? Where are the kidnappers? A crutch never flies out of thin air, what about witnesses? ”

Longevity continued to ask. Mai Xianling's eyes widened: "Lord Qincha, you are a strong man, the matter is already very clear, Guo Niangzi is a filial daughter and a martyr, this is a well-known thing." ”

Zengshou slapped the table: "Guo Niangzi was killed by someone, but she was pitiful that she sold herself to support her in-laws but ended up like this, how did you become a parent official?" Ridiculous! ”
