Chapter 31: The Reason for the Suspicion

The night is dark, the courtyard is deep, and all around is quiet and peaceful, some people have good dreams, and some people can't sleep.

If she sleeps the most unstable and the most anxious, it must be this Mrs. Fang, she is so angry during the day that her liver trembles, and she can't calm it down until now, the more she thinks about it, the more angry she becomes, and the more she can't sleep.

I wanted to ask Fang Jie what was going on, and carefully explain what happened to him when he entered the palace, but he was disrupted by her, the granddaughter-in-law, who must be uneasy.

Now that the knot is out, she has nothing to worry about, as long as the General's Mansion is peaceful, as long as she holds the power of the General's Mansion, this Fang family will not fall, and if she is there, she will never allow others to pollute her Fang family's door.

It's just that she didn't expect Fang Jie to ask why she hated Qi Shu so much, which also shocked her.

What she was thinking about was also the things that had been done in the past, and Mrs. Fang sometimes felt that Qi Shu had become her nightmare, and she couldn't shake it off, and of course she wouldn't tell Fang Jie what the reason for this was.

When His Majesty set the wedding date five years ago, she was indeed very satisfied with Qi Shu in all aspects.

The appearance looks Zhou Zheng is well-behaved, at first glance it is a beauty embryo, even if it grows up, it will not be wrong, reading and literacy will not be short, the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, embroidery female workers are proficient in everything, etiquette and manners are taught by special people, and they can't find fault with it.

The most important thing is that Fang Jie and her are childhood sweethearts, the two have no guesses, and they have deep feelings and know the roots, so Mrs. Fang is even more assured.

If nothing happens, it is estimated that Qi Shu has even given birth to several children in Fang Jie.

But something happened, and Fang married on the battlefield, leaving his mother and weak relatives to leave his fiancée. resolutely went to the front line, the gentleman asked for the return date, and the independent relatives wept.

Qi Shu once swore to Mrs. Fang that as long as Fang Jie did not deviate, she would not abandon her, Mrs. Fang was so moved at that time that she cherished her as her own granddaughter.

Looking back now, I am also a little embarrassed.

If you want to say that what really makes Mrs. Fang feel a little changed, is the face she saw in the discussions she heard last year. She admitted that Qi Shu had taken care of the Fang family in the past few years, but the Fang family was a little poor, and it was definitely not enough to receive the money from the previous Fang Jie's messenger every month.

Mrs. Fang and her daughter-in-law's dowry real estate can also be sold, and the life is getting tighter and tighter, but she insists that she can't shorten the offerings of the ancestors and can't lack the standing things of the square knot.

During this difficult time, Qi Shu took out a lot of the private money she had saved, and she would also smuggle some of the new things into Qi's house. Of course, how could these Qi Shangshu not know, but it was only because he took into account the future general's son-in-law that he felt that breaking a little wealth was nothing.

Openly and secretly connived at Qi Shu often went to the Fang family to help, Fang Jie's father and Qi Shangshu had a rare relationship in the court, and everyone in the world didn't know what Fang Father liked about Qi Shangshu, and the relationship was so close.

At first, Mrs. Fang was still very refusal, feeling a little grateful and a little embarrassed.

Later, the situation became more and more difficult, and he was able to accept it without changing his face and heartbeat, thinking that it was nothing to wait for Fang to come back, and it didn't matter if she was back.

It's just that once, Qi Shu came to the door with a lunch box in his hand, which contained some precious supplements, which were ready to be sent over after being stewed in the house, Qi Shu thought of Mrs. Fang and her future mother-in-law Li's hard work, and they worked very weekdays, thinking about making up for them.

It happened that the Li family and Mrs. Fang went out to the temple together to worship incense, begging the gods and Buddhas to have mercy and bless the Fang family not to break the incense, to bless Fang Jie to return safely, and to bless their Fang family as much as possible.

Qi Shu was closed, thinking that they must have gone out, and they would definitely not open the door for her.

So Qi Shu was not in a hurry, he just turned around and went back to the sedan chair and waited, estimating that he would be back in a while.

The Fang family's courtyard net is full of birds, and there are not many people coming and going, although Qi Shu often comes over, and occasionally when he sits in a sedan chair, the people around him know it, but at this time, the sedan chair stops here, and there are inevitably people around to watch the excitement.

When Mrs. Fang and her daughter-in-law Jingxiang returned, they saw the familiar sedan chair of the Qi Mansion, and they were overjoyed, knowing that Qi Shu must have come to visit them again.

When I was about to walk over, I found that there were a lot of onlookers, all of them were neighbors, ho, it was actually blocked, Mrs. Fang thought to herself that it should not be a short time, and she was afraid that Qi Shu would be in a hurry, so she thought about hurrying over.

Mrs. Fang's ears were sharp, and she heard people talking about something, and two of the women's voices were particularly sharp, and when she listened intently, she only heard the other party say this.

"Eh, you said that the grandson of this Fang family went to the battlefield or not, his marriage is really good, look at this girl from the Qi family, she is really sensible."

"Yes, it's all been up to Qi Mansion for the past few years, right?"

"Yes, yes, what money can those two women have?"

"Ah, then isn't this a person who eats white food with Lai Shangqi's family?" The woman who spoke smacked her lips, as if she was very disdainful, and Mrs. Fang followed the voice and looked at it, it was the mother-in-law who sold tofu on the street next door, and her mouth was usually very broken.

"Yes, yes, if that kid from the Fang family can't come back, it's estimated that he will eat for the rest of his life. But it's nothing, the family of Qi Shangshu has a big business, and it's nothing to raise two more. Another woman in a flowered shirt said.

"Hey, I guess I won't be able to come back." The tofu lady said nonchalantly.

Everyone looked over to look at her, and the tofu lady covered her mouth suddenly, lowered her body and ran away in shame.

Mrs. Fang was angry, and she wanted to catch up with the tofu lady and beat her, but she was forced to be pulled by her daughter-in-law Li, so she didn't succeed. This evil woman curses her own grandson, can she bear it?

glared fiercely at the people around him who had just been discussed, and the viciousness on his face was undisguisedly exposed, and everyone saw that the object of their discussion had returned, and they scattered one after another, saying in front of others that it was always bad, and it was better for neighbors to be in harmony.

Qi Shu, who was sitting in the sedan chair, felt the commotion outside, lifted the curtain and walked out, with a shallow smile on his face, looking gentle and demure, and the crowd scattered and suddenly fell into the cold. Qi Shu raised his eyes and saw Mrs. Fang and Li standing not far away with a basket in their hands, Qi Shu smiled at them, just the right amount of shyness and cuteness.

In the past, Mrs. Fang liked to see Qi Shu's smile very much, but now it is different from the past, I don't know why she feels particularly dazzling when she looks at this smile, and her eyes are full of hypocrisy.

Could it be that she sat in the sedan chair for so long just to listen to other people's praise for her?

Could it be that she also thinks that she is a charity relief family in her heart?

Mrs. Fang had no time to guess, her inside was like a mess, and she approached Qi Shu with her daughter-in-law Li, Qi Shu saluted, and entered the door of Fang's mansion with a food box.

In the past, the Fang family, which looked quite simple and comfortable, was already excellent for a single courtyard, but Mrs. Fang suddenly felt that it had become extremely crude, and it was simply not worth mentioning compared to the high-rise mansion compound of Qi Mansion.

Li saw that her mother-in-law's face was wrong, and she was also a little hesitant, she also heard what she said just now, but now there is no one at home, there is a name of a military general's family, money and power are small, how can you annoy others?

Qi Shu saw that the faces of the two people were different, and thought that something unpleasant had happened when he went out, so he couldn't help but be a little cautious.

"I brought some supplements to replenish your body, I came early, I'm afraid it's a little hot, why don't I go to the kitchen to warm it up?"

"Today I went to the temple with my mother-in-law to burn incense, and I beg Jie'er to return safely as soon as possible, come, girl sit." Seeing Mrs. Fang looking at her coldly beside her, Li wanted to ease the atmosphere, so she said something to turn around.

"Well, I'll go another day." Qi Shu smiled gracefully.

Mrs. Fang said suddenly: "Save, I can't stand it!" In fact, she didn't know what she was angry about, she just felt a little unwilling, and what she said outside was really relevant.

"This, what's going on? Qi Shu accidentally did something wrong, where did he ask his grandmother to make it clear! "When Fang Jie left Shaoliang before, he told her affectionately that there was no one in the Fang family, so he would pay her more, and she agreed.

"I ask you, outsiders say that our family eats you and uses yours, like that moth, you have been praised by a lot of kindness and kindness, but is it true? Take our current poor appearance for you to make a face, but really? "The boils on my face looked a little more horrible.

Qi Shu looked dazed, and wanted to explain for a while, where is this, how can there be such rumors.

This sullen Mrs. Fang just took it alive, and this beam was also finished.

After today, Qi Shu will come to the door as usual, and he will eat more closed-door soup, and occasionally the Li family will receive Qi Shu at the door a little, but he can't even enter the door anyway.

Qi Shu also knew that it must be some kind of rumors outside, which made Mrs. Fang uncomfortable to listen to, presumably because she usually walked too diligently with good intentions, but now it has become like this, she is really unintentional, this is really good intentions to do bad things.

Since then, Qi Shu has come less, but there will be no less things sent by the trustee in private, and the Li family knows that Mrs. Fang is dissatisfied with Qi Shu and has received a lot of benefits from Qi Shu, so he will not report to her one by one.

The consequence of this is that the Li family knows that Qi Shu really cares about their two lonely mothers-in-law, and their impression of her is very good, and Mrs. Fang saw that Qi Shu did not come to the door again, so she decided that Qi Shu was really acting on the spot, deliberately putting on a gesture of charity and superiority, and the Fang family gave her a stepping stone to her reputation, and she was bored when she looked at it with false affection, and every time she thought of her smiling appearance when she came out of the sedan chair that day, she felt sick in her heart.

This vomit has been vomited to this day, and Fang Jie has successfully sat in the position of general, and also has a luxurious general's mansion, now she should be superior in front of Qi Shu.

So some people, like Mrs. Fang, have always been kind to her, and if they didn't go well, they immediately turned over and became enemies.

Mrs. Fang, who was lying on the bed, was tormenting over and over.

Qi Shu's abacus of not marrying has failed, Qi Shu marrying into her family as a side room is subject to her abacus has also failed, and now that he has the position of the county lord, his tail must be upturned to the sky, if he sees her again, he may not be able to show off in front of him.

The night outside was as dark as ink, but Mrs. Fang didn't feel sleepy at all, and after the atmosphere was furious, her head was unusually clear.

All the way, thousands of people, looking forward and back, who may have the last laugh. With this thought, Mrs. Fang barely managed to fall asleep alive.
