Chapter 116: The Arch of Chastity

The little รท said โ—Ž Net], the โ™‚ little รท said โ—Ž Net],

Lord Zhou didn't look at his wife, and asked in a cold voice: "Zhou Zhen, I'll give you another chance, why did you go to the Fuguo Marquis Mansion?" You tell the truth, if you dare to lie again, get out of the Zhou family and don't come back in the future! โ€

Hearing his father's cold questioning, Zhou Zhen's face was full of snot, and he said weakly, "It's my cousin, it's my cousin!" โ€

"She came to me before, saying that this is Tan Yuanqing's order, as long as her son does it, he will be protected by the Tan family in the court in the future, Tan Zheng is the secretary of the military department, and his son is about to enter the military department as a small official, how dare he go against Shangfeng?"

Hearing this, Lord Zhou's face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and even his niece was a little disgusted, and he hated iron and steel: "What she says is what?" If you lose your life, no matter how great the Tan family's ability is, it will not be of the slightest use, you honestly reflect at home, when you figure it out, when you go out again! โ€

At this moment, Zhou Zhen also realized that things were not as simple as he thought, but thinking of his reputation like mud, he was still a little aggrieved in his heart.

Because of the incident that Haitang made up, the daughter of the Xungui family would not marry him, so either to marry a concubine, or to marry the common people, Zhou Zhen was arrogant, the more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became, but he had no way, except for patience, there was no other way.

Early the next morning, Lord Zhou personally went to the Hou Mansion to apologize to Chu Qinghe.

His attitude was extremely sincere, without the slightest reluctance, Xue Su sat next to him for a while, and saw that the two men were talking happily, and her hanging heart finally let go, she casually found an excuse, left the hall, and went to the Minglian Courtyard where Liansheng lived.

Since Zhou Zhen came to the door yesterday, the little girl is like a frosted eggplant, unhappy, and has not shown a smile all day, in the past, she liked Xiao Ning'an the most, and now she is still concerned about taking care of her younger brother, but the sadness contained in her eyebrows and eyes makes Xue Su very distressed, and she can't wait to teach the surname Zhou a hard lesson, in order to relieve the hatred in her heart.

Pulling out a silver box from the sleeve cage, slightly smaller than a fist, Xue Su opened the lid of the box, pinched a brown sugar cube with his fingers, and stuffed it into Liansheng's mouth.

The little girl had never eaten such a sour thing, and her delicate little face wrinkled up for a while, and after a while, she tasted the sweetness, and couldn't help asking, "Auntie, what is this?" First sour and then sweet, the taste is really weird. โ€

"The plums were ripe before, and Zheng picked a lot, boiled them together with the sugar cubes, and condensed this kind of plum candy, and I ate it okay." Xue Su replied vaguely.

Being made such a fuss, Liansheng's heart was not as depressed as before, she sat on the round stool, her head leaned against the wooden frame, and said blankly, "You said that I twisted my hair to be a sister-in-law, okay?" If your name is ruined, even if you stay at home, you have to be pointed at, and you won't be able to marry a good person in the future, so it's better to cut off the three thousand troubles and always accompany the Buddha in front of you. โ€

"If you don't have a heart, you can't enter the empty door." Xue Su straightened his face and said seriously, "What's more, Zhou Zhen's slanderous words were shameless and deliberately ruined your reputation, although you are wrong, but you have changed it, why delay for a lifetime because of this kind of person?" โ€

The little girl burst into tears, "But they all say that I am not ashamed, and I have a private meeting with a foreign man, and I don't wonder that people will come to the door......"

Hearing this, Xue Su's heart swished upward, she gritted her teeth, held Liansheng's hand tightly, and asked, "Who said such things with such a broken mouth?" โ€

Lian Sheng shook his head, sobbing and not saying a word, but Mama Zhao stepped forward and said hatefully, "It's the Yang family who lives next door, his ancestors got a knighthood, and then the men died, the widows of a family, no one attacked the lord, Your Majesty pity them, didn't take back the house, how can I think that poor people must have something to hate, these long-tongued women have been staring at our family since yesterday, and today is even more excessive, the old pious woman of her family actually entered the Minglian Courtyard, and said, "

"Say what?" Xue Su asked with a twisted eyebrow.

"Say that the young lady is shameless and lewd, this kind of woman should be immersed in the pig cage and clean when she dies!"

Xue Su slapped the table hard and scolded, "I think that old pious woman is full of feces, and she just lives by guarding the archway of chastity, and she still wants to buckle the basin on other people's heads, which is really shameless!" โ€

Qiu Ju hurriedly sent the goat's milk to the master, and whispered, "Why do you want to be angry with that kind of person, if your body is angry, it's not worth it." What's more, there are few good goods in that family, and the slave maid heard that the daughter-in-law who married into the door at the end of their family was widowed before the round house, and she was thinking about remarrying, not wanting to put the rest of her life into it, but she didn't expect that those women were extremely ruthless, and in order to maintain the good reputation of the family, they actually forced their daughter-in-law to death......"

Xue Su used to be busy with the affairs of the private house, and after Xiao Ning'an was born, she put most of her thoughts out and put it in the back house, she was not close to the neighbors, and she didn't know that there was such a family living next door, forcing the living people to death, is it good? It's unreasonable!

"If that old woman surnamed Yang still dares to come to the door, you will go to the main courtyard to find me, but it is just a broken house, relying on the many widows in the family, I feel that I am superior, hum!"

Hearing her aunt scolding, Lian Sheng only felt much more comfortable, she stopped her tears, slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, her eyes were bright, and she stared at Xue Su tightly, the latter glanced at her, the little girl was still a little shy, pursed her lips and smiled.

When Lord Zhou left Tonghua Lane, Xue Sucai returned to the main courtyard, and when she saw the man sitting on the Eight Immortals chair, closing her eyes and recuperating, she rolled her eyes, tiptoed up to him, pinched a handful of hair in her hand, and gently swept it over Chu Qinghe's resolute face.

The itchy feeling was extremely clear, he suddenly opened his eagle eyes, looked at the woman in front of him fixedly, the movements of his hands were extremely fast, his big palm wrapped around the soft and slender waist, and directly hugged the person into his arms, his thin lips were close to the slender and fragile collarbone, leaving no gaps.

"What are you messing around with in broad daylight? If I let my subordinates see it, I won't have the face to see people......" Xue Su's voice was already very delicate, and it was probably itchy at the moment, with a smile in her watery eyes, and her sleeves scurried up, revealing her white shoulders.

"Stop making a fuss." Reaching out to straighten out the disheveled placket, she sighed, "How is Xu Cheng's skills?" โ€

Chu Qinghe raised his eyebrows, "Why are you asking this?" โ€

Xue Su didn't hide it, and directly said the matter of his neighbor Yang's family as it was, "Those old pious women deceived people too much, I really thought that the government sent down the chastity archway, and they could use it as the sword of Shang Fang, and they dared to come to the door to make trouble, I'm afraid it's not that my brain is in the water." โ€

The rough fingertips rubbed the delicate red lips, looking at the little wife's little appearance of holding grudges, Chu Qinghe was so in love, his breathing was a little short, and he said hoarsely, "What are Su Su going to do?" โ€

Xue Su shook his head and said, "You haven't answered my question yet." โ€

"Don't worry, Xu Cheng's martial arts are no worse than mine, especially light skills, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a goose without a trace."

The apricot eyes flickered slightly, the tip of the pink tongue poked out slightly, licked the lip flap, and said, "There is a good show tomorrow, if the Hou Ye is not busy, he will stay in the house, and he can also see the excitement when the time comes." โ€

Chu Qinghe naturally had no reason to refuse, and nodded with a smile.

Since her husband is gone, Mrs. Yang has been keeping a straight face all day long, with a pair of hanging eyes that are extremely mean, picking thorns when she sees people, and disciplining several daughters-in-law like quails.

She loves to go to the opera garden to listen to the play, this day she happened to take her three daughters-in-law into the pear orchard, sat in the old position, the little maid served a pot of hot tea, Mrs. Yang took a sip, her wrinkled face with a look of disdain, "The girl of the Chu family is really too disagreeable, she is not clear with her foreign man before she has finished her life, and if she marries someone in the future, she will definitely be a disobedient woman." โ€

The round-faced eldest daughter-in-law diligently peeled peanuts, put them in front of her mother-in-law, and echoed, "That's it, we entered the Hou Mansion yesterday and gave Liansheng some reason, but anyone who is a little ashamed will definitely cry bitterly and sincerely change, but looking at her thick-skinned energy, it doesn't look like a duty." โ€

The four women sat at a table, and their voices were not small, and the people at the next table couldn't help but scold when they heard it, "The old woman closes that stinky mouth, and she can't hear the play!" โ€

Old Mrs. Yang is not an angry person, she is trembling with anger at the moment, and she is staring at this person, "You are really rude in this offspring, and you are really uneducated." โ€

Xu Cheng had a beard on his face, and his skin was deliberately blackened, if he wasn't an acquaintance, he wouldn't have recognized his identity at all, so he stood up with a bang, rushed to Mrs. Yang, grabbed the old woman's collar, and pulled it up hard.

Hearing the sound of tearing, the yellow-brown silk cloth cracked a big hole, and the dirty clothes inside were also broken, and a large piece of the neck leaked.

Mrs. Yang has lived on the archway of chastity all her life, and when she saw her breasts exposed, her eyes were dark, and she almost fainted directly.

At this moment, Xue Su and Chu Qinghe walked out of the private room, and when they saw the Yang family, the woman's delicate face deliberately showed a hint of surprise, and exclaimed, "Isn't this the old lady of the Yang family?" When I was young, I got the archway of chastity, the most conservative woman, and I wouldn't have contact with a foreign man at all on weekdays, how could I end up like this? โ€

Xu Cheng sneered, "The most guarded woman? If this old pious woman really kept the woman's way, my clothes were torn by me, and she should have wiped her neck and killed herself to prove her innocence. โ€

It's better to die than to live, everyone understands this truth, even if Mrs. Yang is willing to use women's morality and chastity to oppress people, but at this moment, she can't be ruthless to herself.

The old lady took her three daughters-in-law with her, her face was red like a pig's liver, she covered her face with her hands, and she couldn't wait to come out of the opera garden immediately.
