The small Buddha hall that Fang said was in the northwest corner of her courtyard, and it was a small cross-courtyard. There is a small Buddhist hall built there, and there are several empty houses. This is the place where the Fang clan usually worships the Buddha, and most of the time it is empty. Of course, this small hall has another purpose. Several girls of the Xun family are all in charge of the Fang family, if she wants to punish any of them, she will find out the high-sounding eyes and arrange for this one to live in the small Buddha hall.

The courtyard door of the small Buddha hall is locked all year round, and the Fang family will arrange for someone to deliver meals twice a day. Eating in the Buddhist hall, it is naturally a vegetarian dish, not only vegetarian but also coarse, as for the degree of coarseness, it is completely in Fang's hands, and some of them are good to eat, the mother-in-law who eats is deaf and dumb, and it is normal to forget to send food. Those who live in the temple have to take care of everything by themselves, and they are also responsible for cleaning the courtyard.

I don't know where Xun Shufang heard the gossip, describing this as a squatting prison. In the past, Xun Shufang, Xun Qingran and Xun Shuzhi were all imprisoned.

In the past, it was only when he offended the Fang family that he was punished like this, in the past two years, Xun Shufang had already won the favor of the Fang family, and Xun Qingran and Xun Shuzhi also listened to what the Fang family said. And as they got older, the Fang Clan rarely did this to them anymore. What is it for this time, is it still anger?

"Madam, your birthday is approaching, and the needlework to be done is not yet done." Xun Qingran reminded softly. didn't lock people in to recite scriptures, and asked people to do needlework day and night, and Zhou Papi didn't bring such a place.

"I'll arrange someone else to do the needlework. All you have to do is go to the temple and recite the scriptures for a few days. ”

Xun Qingran smiled, "Yes, I'm too stupid, and I can't do needlework well, it's time to fast and bathe and recite a few volumes of scriptures for my wife, so that the Buddha can bless my wife with a long life and good health." I wonder how many days my wife wants me to study? "When you are unjustly punished, you have to take the initiative to make excuses for the person who inflicted the punishment and smear her face. This is not enough to compromise, is it enough to be servile, in the words of this era, it has to be said that it is pure filial piety. Fang's family is a little human, so he should let her go, Xun Qingran thought.

"It's not for me this time." Fang said, "It's for Aunt Xin...... and the child in her belly. This was the master's idea, and you don't blame me. As for the number of days, I can't say for sure, but I also have to listen to the old man and Aunt Xin. ”

Kneel for your aunt, when did the Xun family have this reason? But when the Fang clan said this, Xun Qingran could only listen to it. She didn't believe that this was Master Xun's idea. Even if it was, the Fang clan was unhappy, but he could still stop it.

"Then the lady will let me go back and get the bed." Xun Qingran stood up.

Generally, when coming to Fang's yard, Xun Qingran would bring red silk. The only one who came with her today was Hongxuan, and now she is going to be locked up, and I don't know how many days she will be locked up. Naturally, she had to go back and explain a few words to Kikyo, the most important thing was to send a letter to Junhui, so that no matter what, he would not delay the entry into the family tree.

"No need, the Buddha Hall has already been prepared for you. If you don't feel at ease in the house, Hongxuan is outside, you tell her a few words, just go over with Mama Chang. ”

Xun Qing couldn't dye it, and came out to see Hongxuan: "You go back and tell Kikyo that my wife asked me to go to the small Buddha hall to recite the scriptures for a few days, let her take good care of the house, don't make a fuss, do what you have to do, don't be lazy, otherwise when I go back, she will look good." This is my words, Hongxuan, don't miss a word to tell her, I'm not here, you have to take care of everything in the house, don't be polite to her. ”

With Mama Chang watching, Xun Qingran didn't say much, she just hoped that Hongxuan could bring her words, and the bellflower could hear the meaning of her words.

"Alas, third sister, I can look forward to you too!"

followed Mama Chang into the small Buddha hall, and Xun Shufang and Xun Shuzhi greeted her. Xun Qingran automatically filtered out the schadenfreude in Xun Shufang's tone and greeted the two.

"It's been arranged, three girls in one room. The girls have all been here before, so you don't need to explain what to do. After Mama Chang arranged the room, she went back to report to the Fang family.

"I don't know what the lord and wife think, let us kneel to an aunt. She was born in a drama, can she withstand it? It's the child in her womb, hmph, I don't know if I'll give birth to it or not. You say don't you? ”

Xun Shuzhi had already started chanting, but Xun Qingran didn't speak, knelt down on the futon next to Xun Shuzhi, and recited the scriptures that she had memorized for a long time.

Seeing that no one responded to her, Xun Shufang walked around the house and simply sat on the futon.

"And no one is watching, why do you do this?"

Nobody is watching, but you are watching. It doesn't matter how unruly you are, I'm afraid that if you go out of this door, you will say that we don't follow the rules.

"Madame is not angry with us. That day at Aunt Xin's, the lord gave his wife no face on the spot, and when we saw it, my wife must have felt faceless, so she locked us here. What does this matter to me, I was dragged into it by you. Xun Shufang said to herself.

Xun Shuzhi stopped chanting and looked at Xun Shufang, "Obviously, the eldest sister pulled me over." ”

"I'm your eldest sister, what kind of truth is it that you refute me like this, and you have forgotten all the truths that your wife taught you?"

"I'm sorry, big sister."

"Hmph, I'm being implicated by you, and you go to make my bed and clean it tonight."

"Yes, big sister."

Xun Qingran watched Xun Shufang bully Xun Shuzhi and sighed in her heart. These two people are very close in blood, not only the same father, their biological mother, but also sisters. But Xun Shufang seems to be very taboo when someone mentions this, and usually treats Aunt Wu and Xun Shuzhi without the slightest intimacy, bullying Xun Shuzhi is more ruthless than bullying her.

There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, Mama Chang personally brought the food and instructed, "Mrs. said, the girls don't have to kneel in this hall today, only in their own rooms." Please ask the eldest girl to copy a volume of the Diamond Sutra, the second girl embroider a statue of Guanyin, and the third girl...... The three girls should continue to chant in the Buddhist hall. ”

In the Buddha hall, you have to continue to kneel, and in their respective rooms, at least you can sit down, Xun Shufang looked at Xun Qingran and sneered. Xun Qingran lowered her head, who made her "illiterate a few big characters" and "rough work".

Near noon, when Xun Qingran knelt on the futon, half-asleep, Mama Chang came again.

"The third girl comes with me, and the wife calls you."

Xun Qingran hurriedly agreed to stand up and rubbed his sore knees. The Buddhist hall was quiet, and I couldn't hear the movement in Xun Shufang and Xun Shuzhi's room.

"Mama, do you want to talk to the two sisters." Xun Qingran asked.

"You don't have to let them know that it's your wife who is looking for you alone." As he spoke, he approached Xun Qingran again and said in a low voice: "It's a good thing that Mrs. is looking for you." The girl should be clever, and you will do whatever your wife tells you to do, and you will have your benefits in the future. ”

Xun Qingran sighed gratefully, not knowing what tricks the Fang clan was going to play this time.

Mama Chang took Xun Qing into the Fang family's house and retreated. Fang Shi pulled Xun Qingran to sit down next to her with a smile on his face.

"I'm going to tell you a happy event. I called you that day, and you probably didn't know about it. The master finally agreed to let Junhui enter the family tree, and let him participate in this township test. In the future, no matter whether he earns fame or not, he will have a share of the Xun family's family business. After Fang finished speaking, he stared at Xun Qing's face.

Master Xun has never said that he will not let Junhui enter the family tree, no matter what, it is also his own son. Obviously, you are the one who controls the elbows everywhere, but now you are talking about it, but you have been looking forward to Junhui entering the family tree, and there is also your credit in this.

"Congratulations, ma'am. This business belongs to the lord and wife, and it is naturally the lord and the wife who have the final say. Jun Hui entered the family tree, if he has fame in the future, he can also be the arm of the eldest brother and honor the old lady. Xun Qingran said lightly.

Fang didn't expect Xun Qingran, who was usually silent, to say this great truth, and couldn't help but be stunned.

"You kid, there are no outsiders here, you are born to a mother, and you are a little closer than others. How do you say it so coldly? ”

"Please teach your wife." Xun Qing said.

Fang Shi choked for a while, and then said to Xun Qing again: "This is a good thing, yes, but I'm afraid that there will be villains to interfere." ”

Xun Qingran was at a loss and didn't understand, but he didn't speak. Fang had no choice but to continue: "Aunt Xin is pregnant with a child in her belly, saying that it is a male fetus. Her villain's mind is that she doesn't want people to share her child's share of property, and she doesn't want Junhui to enter the family tree. You know, now the lord really values her because she is pregnant. Her words, the master is willing to listen, and he killed a girl in a daze, and I can't help you if I want to. …… Your sister and brother have a good relationship, and you came out for Junhui when you were a child. Now, too, it's time for your sister to do something. In the future, Junhui will come out, and you will also have benefits. Don't worry, you are my daughter, and I won't let you suffer if anything. ”

Xun Qingran lowered his head and sneered in his heart, this is the Fang family who is from a beautiful background, virtuous and virtuous. If it's really everyone's beautiful lady, virtuous and virtuous, should I mention it in front of the girl's family if my aunt is pregnant? This explicitly implies that a girl's family should make a small calculation to harm the child in the aunt's womb, is this what a serious person would do?

Xun Qingran didn't speak for a long time, and his face was just dumbfounded.

Seeing that she was so unenlightened, Fang Shi didn't feel a little irritable. I thought that this was born stupid, or was she adjusted/taught too well, and I really didn't have any scheming at all.

Fang's coughed, Mama Chang came in with a food box, opened the food box and showed it to Fang's, and still retreated.

"Here is a bowl of tonic soup, you can send it to Aunt Xin for me. Even if it's a part of your heart, remember to watch her drink. Don't worry, if you listen to me, I naturally feel sorry for Hui'er, and the matter of his entry into the family tree is wrapped up in me. ”

This is hinting to her that if she sends soup according to what the Fang family said, Xun Junhui will be able to enter the family tree, otherwise, Junhui will not be able to enter the family tree?

What kind of soup has such a great effect? Even if you are a fool, you can't believe that the food box is an ordinary bowl of tonic soup, right?

asked her to exchange the blood of pregnant women and babies for her younger brother's future, Fang's trick was too vicious and lacking in morality. And, isn't it more than that.

Xun Qingran glanced up at Fang, and quickly lowered her head, she was afraid that she would not be able to hide the anger in her eyes.

In Fang's eyes, Xun Qingran's actions were a sign of timidity.

"Junhui is thirteen years old, what will happen to him in the future, it depends on your sister." Fang Shi pushed the food box towards Xun Qingran.

There were voices of talking and footsteps outside, and Fang Clan urged Xun Qingran with some impatience. Xun Qingran gritted his teeth, stood up, and picked up the food box.
