Chapter 539: Trouble in the Mourning Hall

The maid mothers in the room who were crying because of the old lady's breath suddenly looked at each other, and after a while, a little maid said timidly: "Yes...... It's Mother Lee. ┏┛”

This Mother Li was soon pushed out by fear, she looked at the silent Chu Nian in front of her with a pale face, and after a while, she said: "Lady, the world can be learned, the old slave has been with the old lady for a few years, and she will never do anything to harm the old lady!" ”

Chu Nian's eyes flashed slightly, and as soon as Mother Li was pushed out, she was full of horror, and she didn't look like someone who had the courage to kill people and set fire to her eyes.

But the old lady did swallow in front of her eyes today, what was the purpose of the person who poisoned the old lady? Is it simply looking for the old lady's hatred or ...... Coming at her?

Chu Nian's face became a little more gloomy, and at the end, Fang Cai let out a long sigh and said, "That's it, Mei Xiang, the old lady's aftermath will be handled by you." ”

Saying that, she turned around and walked out of the door with a tired face, Mei Xiang behind her glanced at the maid mothers, and then said to Chu Nian's back: "Lady, the matter of the old lady's joint burial ......"

"Follow the old lady's will." Chu Nian didn't look back at this sentence, and his figure disappeared at the end of the path.

……

On the second day, I saw that the entire Chu family was covered with white silk, and there were many guests who came to mourn, until Chu Yuan and Chu Er heard the news and were invited back to the door, Chu Nian made time to return to the herb house to rest for a while.

See you here? O walked in the door, looking at Chu Nian's slightly haggard face, she stepped forward a little distressed, poured tea for Chu Nian, and sat down on the other side.

"Lady, no matter how busy you are, you should take care of your body."

Chu Nian glanced up at her, nodded coyly, and saw Ah? O stepped forward, grabbed Chu Nian's wrist unceremoniously, and stared for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief, "The lady has been really busy these days, and her body seems to have a lot of deficits. ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian nodded obediently, "I know, by the way, didn't you check the old lady's body with the Medicine King yesterday?" What's the deal with the poison? ”

Pander to? O Fang calmly lifted the pen and ink, and said without looking back: "The medicine king said, the old lady in his body is also an extremely rare poison, this poison is not a one-time meal in the old lady's meal, but an adult month - no, it is said that it must be at least a month in stages before the old lady can suddenly be poisoned." ”

One month? Chu Nian frowned, she seemed to have some inspiration in her mind, but she still couldn't grasp the clue, if she continued like this, she really couldn't figure it out.

Pander to? O dried the written ink, folded it, and handed it into the hands of a young man who followed him, and turned his eyes to look at Chu Nian, "The Medicine King only took the residue of the old lady's meal a few days ago and took it back to investigate, if there is any result, it will come out tomorrow." ”

Seeing this, Chu Nian had no choice but to nod slowly, and it seemed that the matter of the old lady could only be handed over to Ah at the moment. O and the medicine king went to deal with them, these poisons and medicines, she had never touched them.

At this time, Mei Xiang's shout suddenly came from outside the door, "Lady, it's not good, there's a commotion in the front hall." ”

Chu Nian frowned before he got up, Ah? O then stood up, "Lady, I'll go with you." ”

Seeing this, Chu Nian thought that there was no obstruction, and he was left behind. O followed him, and when he poured the front hall, the front hall was already in a mess, even the incense burner for burning incense was overturned, paper money and incense ashes fell all over the ground, and the two sides of the old lady's coffin were messy.

And the three of them were in a ball, Chu Nian looked carefully, it was Chu Yuan and Chu Er who were wearing a linen dress, and the other seemed to be a young woman, but Chu Nian didn't know it, only the red dress was dazzling.

Seeing Chu Nian come in, Chu Yuan, who was pulling the woman's hair, let go of his hand, and Chu Er also took the opportunity to push the woman away, only then did he see the woman stand up, and while tidying up her messy robe, she snorted, "You Chu family don't have any good things, one or two married people don't know how to be honest, one who is mixed with men all day long, can teach such three women, this old one is definitely not a good thing, I said that she died well, is it wrong?" ”

Chu Yuan has always been an uncontrollable temper, and this stall is to roll up his arms and sleeves and step forward, "You slut......"

Seeing that Chu Er couldn't stop Chu Yuan, Chu Nian frowned slightly and took a step forward, "The eldest sister is still so urgent, but now it is the mourning hall of the old lady, and the eldest sister hopes that the old lady will not rest in peace?" Or do you want others to say that the daughter of my Chu family is disrespectful and unfilial to the old lady? ”

Chu Yuan paused, and when he heard the sound of Chu Nian's words, Fang Cai snorted coldly, and took a step back, Chu Nian glanced at Chu Er who was tired, and then turned his eyes to look at the woman in red.

"Where are you?"

The woman saw that it was Chu Nian, and the original arrogant atmosphere finally calmed down a little, but this stall still said with a pinched voice: "Yo, it was the unequaled county lord, and I still thought that this house was clothed in linen and filial piety, but the unequaled county lord disappeared, and I think it was also because the old lady did not treat the county lord well during his lifetime, which made the county lord even disdain to stay in front of the mourning hall." ”

Chu Nian raised her eyebrows slightly, and saw that she suddenly took a few steps forward, the woman didn't have time to dodge, her fiery sleeves were pulled by Chu Nian, and her arm was raised, "How does my old lady treat me, I don't need to worry about you as an outsider, but you, my Chu family is mourning, but you are wearing a red robe to attend, what is your purpose?" ”

The woman struggled, but found that she couldn't break free from Chu Nian's hand, so she gritted her teeth and said, "It's no purpose, your family's mourning is not my family's mourning, what do I have to do with what clothes I wear?" ”

Chu Nian narrowed a pair of watery eyes slightly, pursed her red lips and did not speak, the woman was suddenly startled, and saw Chu Nian withdraw her hand, this was hard, and suddenly the woman's robe was torn off a large piece, revealing the snow-white skin inside, and the woman suddenly screamed.

I saw her helplessly covering a large piece of snow-white skin that she was exposed, and screamed repeatedly: "The unequaled county lord actually insulted people in public, you are really ......"

"Come, throw this impudent man out." Chu Nian looked at the woman in front of him expressionlessly, and a family member who had long been unable to hold back stepped forward and grabbed the woman's arm.

The woman screamed, "Ah! What are you going to do! Let go of your dirty hands! I'm the lady of the Wang family! Look at which of you dares to touch me! ”

The family members didn't pay attention to the woman's meaning, but Chu Nian raised his eyebrows slightly, and the woman at this stall was pulled out of the door, but she still roared towards the house: "Hmph! That Chu Yuan is a! All the women of your Chu family are cheap! Your Chu family ......"

Chu Nian frowned, turned his eyes to look at the family at the door, "Draw fifty slaps and throw them out." ”

"Yes!"

The guests in the hall looked at each other, and there was a crisp sound of skin-to-skin contact outside the door, accompanied by the woman's slurred curses.

Until the cursing gradually subsided, the slap did not mean to stop, and the family did not seem to have any mercilessness, the slap after slap made people's hearts feel slightly cold.

Only then did Chu Nian turn his eyes to look at Chu Yuan and Chu Er, "It is enough for the second sister to stay alone to receive the guests who came to mourn, and the eldest sister came with me." ”

Chu Yuan and Chu Er didn't dare to say anything, the two sisters glanced at each other, and Chu Yuan stubbornly followed Chu Nian's back, ah? O followed all the way, without saying a word the whole time.

It wasn't until he reached the courtyard of the Herb House that Chu Nianfang frowned and looked at Chu Yuan behind him, "What did you not tell me?" ”

Chu Yuan's expression was suddenly startled, and after a while, he looked at him again and said, "What...... How come, I have received all the things that the third sister sent to us in recent days, we are also doing well in my husband's house, and the third sister will not have to send so much in the future, the silver taels that the third sister gave us earlier, I have made a shop according to the instructions in the letter, and now I am living quite lightly, third sister, you ......"

Chu Nian shook his head slightly, "I'm not talking about this, when did you get involved with the second king's family?" ”

If she remembers correctly, the woman just now was Chu Yuan, who was named alone, and said that she was Mrs. Wang, and now Mrs. Wang, who dares to have fun in the Chu family, must be the only one in the second family of Wang who thinks she has this ability, right?

It seemed that Chu Nian's words broke his mind, Chu Yuan's face turned a little pale, and he said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that some noble lady had a party a few days ago, and I was dragged by someone, and then I met that woman." ”

Chu Nian wrinkled his brows and looked at Chu Yuan in front of him, and at the end, he sighed lightly, "It stands to reason that I have no obligation to take care of you, after all, there is still a mother of yours between you and me, but since the old lady has already told me to take care of your sisters, it is necessary for me to let the two sisters live in peace, if you hide something from me and refuse to tell me, how can I help you?" ”

When these words fell, Chu Yuan's face became a little more complicated, she also remembered that her mother had sent her a message a few years ago, saying that she was going to join their sisters, but there was no letter halfway, and later Chu Nian sent a message back saying that their mother had an affair with an outsider and was killed by that evil heart, she felt that her mother could do this kind of thing, but in the end, it was only Chu Nian who witnessed the death of Xiao Chen, if there was no depression in their hearts, it was not impossible.

But Chu Nian did take care of the two sisters, in the early years, the two sisters were misled by their mother to do so many sorry things for Chu Nian, and now Chu Nian is willing to share some of their family property, which is already benevolent and righteous, and now that he is in the deep house, Chu Yuan, who was not accidental, also understands Chu Nian's situation more clearly, although his heart is still a little depressed, he also has a little sympathy.

Now that Chu Nian has said so much and done so much, he is also a little moved in his heart.

At this time, he sighed softly, and said: "The third sister doesn't have to be like this, and I'm embarrassed to trouble the third sister with my affairs, if the third sister doesn't want to take care of it, I can solve it myself." ”

Chu Nian twisted his eyebrows, his red lips opened slightly, "What problem do you think I really want to solve for you?" I'm just afraid that you will insult the reputation of my Chu family. ”
