Tang Shi was cautious all the way and hurried to the firewood room.

The firewood room was unguarded, only locked.

Tang didn't know where he got the key, so he unlocked it and entered the firewood room.

When Xiao Li saw that it was the Tang family coming, he immediately had hope and said, "Second grandmother, you can be regarded as coming." ”

Tang frowned and complained in a low voice, "Why are you making trouble?" Why was he caught by Shen Qingrong? ”

As soon as Xiao Li heard Shen Qingrong's three words, he spat angrily and said angrily: "She has no evidence, she doesn't know anything, even if you let Jinxiu shut her mouth, she can't do anything to me." ”

When Tang heard this, he was greatly relieved, as long as Xiao Li didn't speak, everything would be easy.

"Pack up and get out of the house. I'll let Jinxiu arrange it for you, and I'll send you away overnight. Tang was a little anxious, and told Xiao Li: "I'll give you some more silver, and you won't come back." ”

Xiao Li didn't want to leave the house at all, she smiled coldly and said, "What? The second grandmother is afraid of Shen Qingrong? The thing was done without doing it, and Aunt Xu's child was really knocked away, the matter is over, and the second grandmother wants to cross the river and tear down the bridge? Or are you planning to kill people and kill people?? ”

Tang suddenly thought of something, and said dumbly: "You, you killed Aunt Bi?" ”

Xiao Li smiled indifferently, "She's so stupid, it's up to me to kill her." But a couple of words made her scared. ”

The Tang family is a philistine, and he is cautious and calculating. Essentially, she doesn't want to kill anyone, she's not that ruthless.

"You, how can you kill someone?"

Xiao Li sneered, "What? You asked me to find a way to get Aunt Xu's child, so it wouldn't be called murder? ”

Tang Shi trembled slightly, suppressed his fearful voice, and said in a deep voice: "Anyway, the Guogong Mansion must not be able to accommodate you, you better leave quickly!" ”

Xiao Li looked at Tang faintly and threatened her: "Why should I leave the Guogong Mansion, I won't go, I won't go anywhere!" You asked me to do it, and when I was in a hurry, I went to tell the young lady and the old lady that you had bad intentions! ”

Tang was annoyed and angry, and reminded Xiao Li: "Don't forget, you attacked Sister Yu first, such a young child, you actually pressed her into the water and threw her into the lotus pond!" ”

Qingrong listened outside the window, gritting his teeth angrily, his hands clenched into fists, and his knuckles turned white.

Xiao Li said: "Who saw it?" ”

Tang said: "Jinxiu has seen it!" ”

Xiao Li smiled fearlessly and said, "Splendid? Who knows if your second grandmother planted the blame in order to wronged me? ”

Tang Shi was very angry, and said "yes" three times in a row: "I originally wanted to save you with good intentions, but you had to make things so stiff, so let's just break up, and no one will be happy." But you have to think clearly, I am instructing you to harm Aunt Xu. But I am a wife, she is a concubine, and if I hurt her, I was punished by the old lady and annoyed by the second master. But what about you? You are a concubine, and if a concubine harms her master, it is a sin to be hanged! ”

Xiao Li's face showed fear, obviously scared.

Tang looked at Xiao Li and asked her with a sneer, "Are you going or not?" ”

Xiao Li hesitated, but he still didn't want to. Go, where can she go?

When Qingrong heard this, she said quietly: "Where can she go?" The people who can be sent by the Li family can be seen that it is not the Li family that matters. ”

Hearing Qingrong's voice, Tang and Xiao Li were all shocked, Mei Rui pushed the door open, and Qingrong entered the door generously.

Tang Shi was so frightened that his legs were weak, his face was pale, and he asked tremblingly, "You, why are you here?" ”

Qingrong looked at Tang with a solemn gaze, sighed and said, "You shouldn't collude with her." She shook her head in disappointment.

Tang Shi reacted very quickly, knelt down in front of Qingrong, and cried: "I, I also have no choice, sister-in-law, I didn't mean to." ”

Xiao Li didn't expect that Tang would kneel and beg Shen Qingrong, her heart was full of disgust, but seeing Tang like this, she felt that most of them were hopeless.

Qingrong frowned, and hid back: "What is a last resort, what is not intentional?" Did someone force you to harm Aunt Xu? Didn't you threaten her and let her do it to Aunt Xu? ”

Tang walked on his knees to hug Qingrong's legs, as if he was afraid that Qingrong would run away in the next second. She cried and wiped her tears and said, "It's my lard that blinds my heart, but I can't help it." I'm not like you, I've been married for five or six years. has never come out, but this Xu family has had a child less than a year after entering the door. What if this was a boy? ”

Qingrong didn't accept Tang's words at all, shook his head and said: "She's just a concubine, even if she gives birth to a boy, you can bring the child over, what's the difference between what she gave birth to and what you gave birth to, why should you harm others?" ”

Tang cried: "Why should I hold her child, I can also have a child." Tang almost broke down and cried, "I'm different from you, I'm not as good as you, my uncle is a cabinet bachelor, but my mother's family is nothing." My grandmother didn't dislike me, and my family didn't look down on me. Then Xu's father has been promoted again, if her father rises higher and higher, she will be a concubine in the future. Let her give birth to a child and gain a firm foothold in the house, where is my share in the second room! ”

Qingrong was full of disgust and wanted to avoid the Tang family, "You are a wife, she is a concubine, even if she has a good background and gives birth to a child, she will not replace you, the second master will not do anything to spoil the concubine and kill his wife, and the old lady will not allow it, why do you do such a bad thing?" ”

Tang cried very desolately, and pleaded with Qingrong: "There is only one such time, I only do this once." Sister-in-law, please don't tell your grandmother, if you tell your grandmother, I will be kicked out. ”

Qingrong said coldly: "Since you have done it, you should be prepared to be exposed." You're afraid of being kicked out, but what about Aunt Xu? Who will do her justice? ”

Tang said: "Aunt Bi is dead, who knows what kind of madness she is making." As long as your sister-in-law can raise your noble hand, I will never dare to do it next time. No, no, there won't be a next time. In the future, I will listen to my sister-in-law for everything, and listen to you for everything! ”

Qingrong is very conflicted, she thinks that in the unspoken rules of the inner house of the beam, this is considered a housework, and the severity of this conspiracy is probably not a big deal?

Seeing that Qingrong hesitated, Tang immediately cried again and again: "Xu's matter will come out if it doesn't come out, even if it comes to grandmother, it can only make her old man more annoyed, first there are three rooms, and then there is me, grandmother will be more sad." Sister-in-law, raise your hand, and this matter will be over. ”

Qingrong said coldly: "Mei Rui, pull the second grandmother up." ”

Xiao Li looked at it coldly, and thought to himself that if it was up to Aunt Bi, then she wouldn't have to leave.

Mei Rui and the others hurriedly stepped forward to pull the Tang family, Qingrong didn't say a word, and asked people to separate the Tang family and Xiao Li's family, and locked the door of the firewood room again.

Tang's legs were a little weak, looking at Qingrong's back, he didn't dare to shout too loudly, and said with some fear: "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law ......"

Qingrong didn't speak, and walked wordlessly all the way to the Begonia Courtyard.

When she returned to the house, Mother Yuan couldn't help but ask Qingrong in a low voice, "Young lady, what are you going to do about this?" ”

Qingrong couldn't tell her plan, and she was hesitating.

Yuan's mother said: "Actually, this kind of thing is not strange in a big house. Why didn't you have Aunt Ke in the past? ”

Qingrong said: "Wasn't Aunt Dong harmed?" ”

Mother Yuan nodded, "Thanks to Mrs. Lin's early discovery, she saved Brother You'er's life." Why didn't Mrs. Lin investigate this later? ”

Qingrong didn't understand, "Why don't you check?" ”

Mother Yuan cried and laughed: "What can I find out?" The master is bound to protect Aunt Dong, not to mention this kind of thing, everyone is gone. ”

Qingrong looked at Yuan's mother and asked her, "You don't want me to tell the old lady about the Tang family?" ”

Mother Yuan said: "The second grandmother is really lacking in virtue in this matter, but what can the old lady do?" It's just a punishment, and for the sake of an aunt, the lady of the main house can be divorced? What's more, no matter how humble the second grandmother is, she also has an uncle in the cabinet. Second Master Hui is Wenchen, and he needs Lord Tang very much. ”

This kind of truth, Yuan's mother understands, and Qingrong understands it even better.

She waved her hand at Yuan's mother and said, "I'm tired and want to sleep, let people take a good look at Aunt Xiang." Don't let anything happen again. ”

Early the next morning, the aunts of the Yayuan came to greet Qingrong as usual.

Da Li's family complained of illness and did not come, only a few people from the Qin family, the Su family, the Jiang family, and the Guan family. In the past, the house was full of warblers and swallows, but today it is significantly more deserted. A few aunts, you look at me, I look at yours, all of them are extremely respectful.

Qingrong felt for the first time that this morning was very clean. When she went out to the main courtyard, Tang was waiting at the door, looking like she had been waiting for a long time.

When Tang saw Qingrong, he subconsciously lowered his head, and whispered very anxiously: "Sister-in-law......"

"Let's go see Grandmother," Qingrong didn't let Tang finish his words, and walked out directly.

Tang ran forward and whispered to Qingrong: "Sister-in-law, I beg you, don't tell your grandmother." Tang said, looking like he was about to cry.

"The third lady wants to harm the eldest brother, and she used to ask me to follow her to make a stumbling block for you. is also about Heqiu's child, in fact, Guan Heqiu, who was deliberately picked up by the big Li family and the little Li family, if you let me go, I can tell my grandmother about it. ”

Qingrong was immediately shocked, turned his head to look at Tang, and said, "How do you know?" ”

Tang said: "I heard it in the garden, and then a child really died. It is said that Guan Heqiu strangled his child to death without evidence, but this is a piece of evidence, right? I also know that those two children were born with congenital deficiencies, and it is difficult for them to survive at all. Guan Heqiu also knows. ”

Qingrong was very surprised by Tang's ability to obtain information, but he didn't promise Tang anything, and still silently went to Shouxi Hall.
