After the dowry was finalized, Lord Zheng probably felt that Meng Hui, who was as quiet as a chicken, was quite pleasing to the eye, and took out a large bag of broken silver very angrily to reward Ning Lu. Listening to the shameless Master Cui say that there was a personal maid who didn't come, he simply took out a pack and let the condensation bring the condensation.

Ning Lu held the heavy two bags of broken silver, and there was no joy in his heart. She followed Meng Hui into the courtyard, and after a long time, she mustered up the courage to speak: "Girl, can we not use this silver?" I always feel bad. ”

"Of course not." Meng Hui threw her an approving look. "You find a place to put it away, and when you leave your family, you have to return it to others."

In the end, Lord Zheng didn't do anything wrong, the candidate who was optimistic at the beginning was dropped by Master Cui, and he finally accepted it, and there was trouble in the follow-up. is a lot older, and the marriage is still full of twists and turns, and if it is delayed, it will not be able to catch up with the succession.

Meng Hui walked into the courtyard, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw Ning Zhu drinking tea, and his eyes lit up with joy, leaving the unlucky Lord Zheng behind. "Coming back? Tired or not? Would you like to go back to the house and rest? ”

Ning Zhu shook her head with a smile and said, "Look at the girl like this, where do I dare to rest, if you don't tell the matter, can you rest assured?" ”

"Hey, hey, hey...... It's a little curious. Meng Hui smiled embarrassedly, pressed her down on the beauty couch, poured a cup of hot tea and pushed it over on the small table.

Ning Lu put the silver and followed, and after closing the door, Ning Zhu began to tell about her trip to Zhangjia Village.

"I came back from burning paper on the ancestral grave and went directly to Zhangjia Village, Lian'er was beaten by her mother-in-law again, her face was full of blood marks, her eyes were swollen, and she looked weird and scary." Ning Zhu was quite embarrassed, in the past, Lian'er's nose was not a nose and eyes were not eyes, but now when she sees her like this, she still feels strange and pitiful.

"I didn't persuade her much, I just said that if the news spread, the second girl and the eldest son would definitely not be good, so Lian'er agreed without hesitation."

Meng Hui could understand Lian'er's thoughts, if it was her, he didn't want to let go when he seized such an opportunity for revenge. A good personal maid, she was kicked out of the house for some reason, and she was dragged to marry a fool, and she had to be beaten every day in addition to doing heavy work and serving and urine, and it was strange that she didn't have any grievances in her heart.

"The city she went into with you?"

"Yes, but I didn't go with her to spread the word. She knew a few women who set up stalls, and every one of them went to sit down, and I waited from afar. When she had spread the news, I went home. ”

Meng Hui asked, "What about her?" Go back to the village on your own? ”

Ning Zhu pursed her lips and said, "She took advantage of her in-laws' absence to secretly run away with me, and it is estimated that she will not go back." ”

Ning Zhu has copper coins and hairpins on her body, which Meng Hui gave her to buy Lian'er, which is inconspicuous in the official eunuch's house, and it is still a large amount in the eyes of the ordinary people.

On the way, she told me that she didn't run away from her in-laws' house because she was afraid of endangering her parents. But when she went to her mother's house to complain, she didn't even open the door at home, and only persuaded her to go back to her mother-in-law's house quickly. So I guess she'll probably sell the hairpin and leave Kyoto with the money. ”

Meng Hui nodded, thinking that this would be fine. Lian'er escaped from the sea of suffering and lived a new life, and she didn't have to worry about the news being revealed in the future.

"Do you estimate that it will take a few days for this matter to reach the Duanwang Mansion?"

"The stalls that Lian'er goes to are all from the inner city, and many people come and go, and there may be people who know the people of Duanwang's mansion. I'll see it for two or three days at most. ”

Meng Hui breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, as long as it wasn't ten days and half a month.

Today, Lord Zheng has made up his mind, and most of the days will be counted tomorrow, he, Master Cui, and the Wang family are all anxious, and they will definitely not look for a date too far away.

In this year, there are many people who have not yet married fifteen, and they sleep in separate rooms at their husband's house, and then they have the same room when they go to the house. It's just that people with skin and face can't do this kind of thing, Master Cui is afraid that the money in his hand will run away, and he wants to have one less mouth to eat early, so he can't wait to do things quickly.

"Two or three days to the palace, King Duan spent a few more days to determine and catch the traitor. In this way, half a month can make Cui Da deflated. ”

Meng Hui put his heart back in his stomach, looking forward to returning to the Hades Palace after the task was completed, and was thinking about whether he could get any task rewards when he went back, when he heard Pei'er's voice outside.

"Third girl, my lord is invited."

Meng Hui chuckled in his heart when he heard this, according to Cui Yuzhen's memory, this was a prelude to bad luck. In the blink of an eye, they looked at the condensation beads and condensation, and their faces turned white.

"Three girls, hurry up, the master is waiting in the main house, so don't change your clothes, it's all in vain anyway."

Meng Hui heard Pei'er's gloating ridicule, and knew that Master Cui was "invited" this time, it must be because he didn't dress up well when he saw Master Zheng, so he didn't have the face to ask for a high price.

Meng Hui didn't know what punishment to receive, whether she would be locked up in a small black room like before, in order not to miss the news outside, she softly told Ning Zhu and Ning Lu to stay in the courtyard and wait, and not to go with her.

Following the brisk Pei'er, all the way to the main courtyard, seeing Master Cui's swollen face expressionless, Meng Hui knew that he was not ordinary unhappy.

Before she could stand still, a teacup spun and flew towards her, hitting her shoulder and bouncing off the ground, smashing into pieces.

"Get on your knees!"

Meng Hui rubbed his shoulders expressionlessly, feeling that sooner or later he would let the rules of this dynasty suffocate him to death again. Before she could squat down slowly, Wang suddenly walked in from outside the door and helped her.

"What are you doing, sir? If you have anything to say, if you smash your face or break your knee, how will you get married at that time? After Wang finished speaking, he glanced at Cui Yuzhen, and he didn't feel very happy in his heart. In my opinion, I still punished her to live in the firewood house for three days to reflect on herself. ”

Master Cui snorted coldly, thought about it carefully, and felt that what Wang said was still reasonable, so he nodded in response. "Then lock it up for three days! There is no sense of proportion at all! Repeatedly make you remember for a long time, so that you don't look like you can't be on the stage, you look at you, what do you look like? ”

After hearing this, Meng couldn't suppress the anger in his heart, raised his head and looked at his disgusting face coldly.

"You don't care if your son molests your sister-in-law, you don't care if your aunt kills your daughter-in-law, and you still sell your daughter with an abacus, this is on the stage? You are particular about food and clothing, but you can go to my yard with a lantern to see if you can turn out something on the table! ”

Master Cui was dumbfounded, he didn't react for a long time, and Wang was even more shocked and couldn't say a word.

The dead silence lasted for a moment, and Master Cui yelled as if he was crazy: "It's the other way around!" Drag her to the firewood room for me! You are not allowed to come out until the right day! ”
