Extra 2: Shen Ying (4)
; After Sun Jingyao's death, the second sister's heart also died. She resolutely threw away the matter of a house, went to the nunnery, and spent the rest of her life in the light of the bitter Buddha.
By the time everyone in the Jiang family knew, the second sister had even shaved off her hair. The old man was angry, fell ill in bed, and after three months, he only got a little better, and from then on, he couldn't even be interested in women's things.
It is said that mother and daughter are connected, as soon as Aunt Du heard that her daughter entered the Buddhist gate at a young age, she was so anxious that she fainted on the spot, and after waking up, there was something wrong with people, and she couldn't remember what had just happened.
At that time, I was busy with the affairs of the Shen family, and I did not go to the capital with my uncle. I only heard the uncle come back and say that the second sister said that she had sins in her life, and only by taking refuge in the Buddha could she wash away her sins.
When I heard this, I couldn't help but tears rippled, and I cried: "She is relieved, how can the three children in that house live?" ”
At that time, Xiao Cao's had already hanged himself, and Sun Jingyao's aunt Gao couldn't help being lonely after confinement, so she threw down the child and ran away. Where it went, no one knows. A good mansion, scattered and scattered, only a light breeze with three children left, I don't know what it's like to live a good life.
Yuan Qing looked at me deeply and said, "Originally, the second uncle and the eldest sister wanted to take the child over, but I didn't expect that the people in the Sun Mansion would not agree?" ”
"People from the Sun Mansion? Who is it? I exclaimed.
"I'm afraid you can't even think of it, it's that Sun Jinghui!" Yuan Qing sighed.
"It's him!" I looked up in amazement.
"That's right, it's that Sun Jinghui. He said that the Sun family had a house and food. Why should your own children be raised by others? and despite the opposition of everyone, he raised three children under his name. The child's surname is Sun, and I discussed it with my second uncle for a long time. I had to do it! ”
"Doesn't he hate ......"
"People are already like this, how can they hate him, no matter how they say, those three children also call him uncle. He is that kind of person again, raised by his side, and when he gets old in the future, he will be regarded as a queen. ”
I thought about it later. Maybe such an ending is the best for Sun Jinghui and the three poor children!
When the old lady found out about this, she didn't say anything. Only sighed again and again.
……
Last year, when I entered Beijing, I deliberately asked my eldest sister to accompany me to the nunnery to see my second sister.
Years of fasting and reciting Buddha have made this once bright woman much older, and the corners of her eyes are covered with dense wrinkles.
She saw us coming. His complexion was calm. I asked everyone in the family, and then asked her children, and when I heard that they were all safe, I didn't ask any further.
We wanted to talk to her, but she didn't want to listen to it more, so she just said that she was reciting the Sutra of Peace to her relatives in front of the Buddha, and she couldn't be distracted.
We saw that everything was fine with her, and there was nothing to say. After sitting for a while, I donated some incense money to the nunnery. He had no choice but to leave.
Unexpectedly, before leaving, she actually asked about the current situation of her fourth sister.
We picked up some important things to listen to her, and she listened, and said with deep eyes: "One of the things I regret the most in my life is that I didn't listen to her advice!" With that, he left without looking back.
I couldn't help but sigh deeply.
People, they have all come to this point, what can they do if they regret it!
……
As soon as I stepped into the courtyard, I heard Aunt Du shouting in a sharp voice: "I don't have breakfast, you don't give me food, I want to go to the lord and wife to complain." ”
When the maids saw me coming, they gathered around one after another, and their faces were full of grievances.
I got used to it, and waved my hand to signal them to disperse.
"Auntie, didn't you just eat, why did you forget it again. Today, I specially asked the kitchen to make you your favorite longan and red bean porridge, and you still tell me that it is fragrant? I stepped forward to support Aunt Du, and said while coaxing.
"I've eaten it?" Aunt Du looked at me blankly.
"After eating, I saw that you ate well, and asked the maid to add half a bowl!" I pinned a strand of hair to her ear behind her ear and whispered.
Aunt Du's chaotic eyes turned around, and after thinking for a long time, a smile slowly bloomed on her slightly chubby face.
She looked at my face and said with a smile: "Look at my memory, I forgot about it." It's really a sin for Grandma Lao to run this trip again. ”
I smiled faintly and said, "What's the matter in the future, don't mess with the maids, what do they know?" My aunt is also a master, and the legend goes, but no one says that you can't tolerate people. ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Grandma is right. "Aunt Du deserves it quite quickly.
"Auntie, rest, there are still things to do ahead, so I won't talk to my aunt!"
"Grandma, I'll go with you, I haven't asked my lord and wife to say hello today, it's so unruly, they should talk about me?"
"Auntie forgot again, just now in Guiyun Hall, my aunt is still walking in front of me." I said it very calmly.
Aunt Du's foot was about to be withdrawn, and she looked at me blankly, with doubts in her eyes.
"My aunt doesn't even believe me?" I'll add a word in due course.
"I ...... Hey, people are old, it's really useless, this front foot only does, the back foot forgets. Grandma, you walk slowly. Aunt Du said silently for a moment.
I felt a little unbearable in my heart, and said politely: "Well, auntie, go back and rest!" If there is a letter from the second sister, I will give you good news for the first one! ”
Aunt Du's eyebrows suddenly fluttered, and she smiled: "Thank you, grandma!" I'm looking forward to it! I haven't heard from you in a few days! ”
"It's not just you looking forward to it, sir, and wife are looking forward to it! Auntie, go back and rest! ”
I didn't dare to look back at Aunt Du's figure, because every time I saw it, my heart would be twisted. She closed most of the memories of her second sister, thinking that her second sister was still living comfortably in Sun's house.
Most mothers in the world are selfless, love their sons, and can force themselves into a desperate situation.
I think that if this can make Aunt Du live happily, I am willing to hide it from her for the rest of my life.
……
A morning passed like this.
Lunch. I usually put it in my own yard, and then a few children from the school will come to my yard one after another.
I ate with the children and ate for a while. It is customary to take a nap for a while.
Woman, no matter how delicate your life is, how well you maintain it, and how old you are every year, this energy is obviously not as good as when you were young.
Today, however, I have to go back to my parents' house, and I have to come back before sunset. So I had to leave earlier.
The reason why I want to go back to the Shen family is because today is the death day of my grandfather.
……
My grandfather was in the Shen family. It's a god-like being.
He was a man of great mellow and righteous deeds. When he was young, he was born in the imperial examination, climbed to a high position step by step, and created a great family business.
There are hundreds of people up and down the Shen family. There was not a single one who disobeyed him. It's my uncle who is the third grade. When he saw his grandfather, let him kneel, and the uncle would never dare to stand.
If there had not been that catastrophe, with the body of his grandfather, the Shen family would have been four generations in the same house now.
There are two things that my grandfather regretted the most when he was alive. One is to take in someone who shouldn't be; One is the rejection of someone who shouldn't be refused.
And it was precisely these two things that made him, who was supposed to live longer than Nanshan, depressed. He fell seriously ill and died.
I remember that in the early winter of that year, the first winter rain had just fallen in Jiangnan. The air is cold and damp, and pedestrians are rare on the road. I have always been afraid of the cold, so I huddled in my room and didn't want to go out.
That evening, my uncle and I were each freshened up, and our hair was loosely curled, but I saw my sister-in-law's personal maid Ziyin rushing in with her hair and falling at my feet.
I was shocked and hurriedly asked why. I only knew that in Suzhou Shen Mansion, my parents, brothers, nephews and nieces were all imprisoned.
What surprised me even more was that the people of the Shen Mansion in the capital had been imprisoned half a month ago.
I only felt that it was dark in front of me, and my body fell uncontrollably, but fortunately, Yuan Qing was quick and held on.
With tears streaming down my face, I forced myself to ask, "Do you know what the crime is?" ”
Zi Yin sobbed silently and said something that broke my heart: "Collaborating with the enemy to judge the country!" ”
Collaborating with the enemy to sentence the country?
Punish the capital offense of the Nine Clans.
My heart is dead and dusty.
……
Those who have not experienced calamity will not know what it is like for a heart to burn on fire every minute. That kind of panic, that kind of heart is like a knife, can torture people to death.
I didn't eat or drink and lay in bed, I only had one thought in my heart, if my relatives were punished by the Nine Clans, what courage would I have to live in this world.
The funny thing is that my parents-in-law, just like the people who avoided the second room back then, avoided me like a plague god, if I hadn't given birth to three children for Jiang Fu, and there was no mistake in my daily behavior, and their sons were protecting me with burning words, I was afraid that they would have left me with a letter of resignation and abandoned me out of the house.
Drowning people always hope for a straw. In despair, I didn't know where I got the courage, dressed up, went to the house of a family friend who was good friends with the Shen family, and begged for help from one family to another.
As long as they can help, I, Shen Ying, will not only be in this life, but even if I will be a slave in the next life, I will be willing to repay their great kindness.
However, I shuttled through the streets and alleys of Suzhou Mansion from morning to night, until the moonlit treetops, and I could not even enter a mansion gate.
I was sad in my heart, and I cried for a long time, and finally understood that my wishful thinking had become vulnerable in the face of reality.
It is said that money can make demons push demons, so I spent nearly a thousand taels of silver to clean up the prison, and finally asked for five minutes of visitation.
In the gloomy and damp prison, the men and women of the Shen family, old and young, were huddled together, and I cried like rain, not daring to take a step forward.
I clearly saw my sister-in-law, Zhang, holding the child in her arms with a frightened face, her face was pale and her lips were chapped.
I feel like my sky is falling.
Just when I had no way to go to the sky and no way to enter the ground, a person I didn't expect was waiting silently at the door of Jiang's mansion. (To be continued......)
