Liu was silent for a long time, looking at the increasingly haggard bright moon, and couldn't help but feel sad.

Mingyue is her own daughter, although she never confides in her heart easily, but Liu more or less realized that the change in her daughter began with Wei Zhixing's departure, lazy, negative, and unable to smile at the bottom of her eyes, although she has not reduced her food, but she no longer has the enthusiasm of the past, and people are also seeing a decrease day by day, if Liu Fu (Wei Lai) mentions Wei Zhixing, she immediately turns her face, she is completely an irritable cat, see who scratches whom.

Such a bright moon made Liu even more self-reproachful in his heart:

Because of his incompetence, he let Mingyue show his head, so he knew Li Fang, Wei Zhixing and other unattainable and heinous wicked people;

Because of his cowardice, he let Mingyue take the lead, fight with the Liu family, break with the old house, cooperate with Zhenweifang, etc., so he encountered so many unfortunate things, and accumulated the notoriety of his daughter who is tough and difficult to marry;

Because he is widowed, he responded to the sentence that the widow has a lot of things to do, her reputation is full of twists and turns, and she is so tired that Mingyue's face is gloomy, and the Su family only wants to accept Mingyue as a concubine, and is willing to marry Mingyue's nephew who is in the main room.

All of this is just because they don't have a man, a man who can protect their mother and daughter. Perhaps, if she marries Cheng Hongluo, Mingyue and her daughters and sons can be protected, not burdened by fame, not bent over Doumi, and not worried about the future.

Besides, this adult is very gentle with himself, not as scary as he imagined, and maybe, remarrying is no longer such an embarrassing thing.

Liu Shi had a judgment in his heart, and said to Mingyue firmly: "Yue'er, you and Uncle Niu will wait for your mother for a while, your mother will go to buy some ingots and candles, and tomorrow your mother will go to your father's grave." ”

Mingyue naturally wouldn't let the Liu family show up, so she jumped out of the ox cart first, took the initiative to return to the city again, and went to the white shop.

After buying ingots, incense candles and liquor, she didn't want Liu's noodles to be tired tonight and get up early tomorrow morning to steam steamed buns, so Mingyue thought about buying ready-made buns for Yin You.

Walking and walking, I unconsciously walked to the familiar bun shop, and when I looked up, the aunt of the Qiu family was greeting the guests with a smile on her face, bowing her head and wrapping the buns in oiled paper.

Mingyue came to Aunt Qiu, smiled slightly and said hello, Aunt Qiu, who was looking up to greet the guests, looked up and saw that it was Mingyue, her face changed slightly, as if she was unaware of greeting other guests, and regarded Mingyue as air.

Begonia's appearance and personality are all with Aunt Qiu, all of them are tall and healthy, and they have a big grinning true temperament, the difference is that Begonia is straightforward and calculating; Aunt Qiu is straightforward and domineering, and her mind is simple, and Begonia has a headache when she sees her mother.

The reason why begonias are fat and ugly is mostly because of Aunt Qiu. When Begonia was five years old, Aunt Qiu had a close relationship with the butcher's wife who sold meat, and she was given a pair of piglets.

At that time, the son of Zhang Butcher was still dragging a little snot when eating, and he was so disgusting that the begonias avoided like snakes and scorpions.

The ugly begonia was a blessing in disguise, borrowed the light of the bright moon, not only found a good husband like Wei Yan, but also found a month of work with income (serving Mingyue), Aunt Qiu used to see Mingyue is far away to say hello, with a smile on her face like the most brilliant chrysanthemum in autumn, no matter whether Mingyue eats her buns or not, she always stuffs a bag full of money, and she doesn't want silver, every time because of the silver, the two push and shove as if they were fighting.

And this time, it was obvious that Mingyue was snubbed, Mingyue sighed secretly in her heart, thinking that because she drove away the begonias, the begonias went to the capital, and the mother and daughter were separated, and Aunt Qiu was angry with her, and turned around to leave.

Aunt Qiu picked up the dust of the flies, waved it on the steamed bun drawer, and said contemptuously: "This person can't be ungrateful, can't be ruthless, and harm others and himself." ”

Mingyue frowned, her good impression of Aunt Qiu plummeted, she just didn't give her money for buns before, but she folded fabrics and other things to repay the favor, as for being so bitter?

Mingyue walked to Kidnapper Street in an unhappy mood, preparing to buy it at another house.

Aunt Qiu obviously didn't let go of Mingyue, and snorted coldly from her nose: "Weak heart? Running away? My begonia is soft in personality, I don't want to settle accounts with you, but my mother is not a vegetarian, if my son-in-law has three long and two short, you will wash your face and wait for the old lady to spit on you and scratch you!! ”

Mingyue was scolded so much that she turned around unhappily, walked back to Aunt Qiu, frowned and said: "Aunt Qiu, there has to be a reason for scolding, I just let Haitang follow Wei Yan back to the capital to enjoy happiness, you don't thank me, why do you still scold me for hurting your son-in-law?" Your son-in-law is a good doctor, and he is a celebrity in front of him, why did he hurt her? ”

Aunt Qiu spat on the ground, crossed her waist and scolded: "Xiangfu went? You tiger lady don't know, do you? My daughter went home that day and cried like a tearful person, saying that her son-in-law's two arms were bitten into a sieve by scorpion poisonous insects, and life and death hung by a thread every night; and his master, who choked his breath when he saw it, not to mention the red man, even the purple man was so cold. ”

Mingyue chuckled in her heart, and hurriedly grabbed Aunt Qiu's fat hand and said hurriedly: "Auntie, what's going on?" What happened to Wei Yan? What happened to Wei Zhixing? The moment she finished speaking, her vision blurred, she didn't even understand what the phrase "I'm about to swallow" meant, didn't Luo Ping say it? Wei Zhixing is doing a good job in the capital, and he has made King Luo and Princess Lu separate, and Lang is a concubine, it must be Aunt Qiu's deception, it must be.

Aunt Qiu shook off Mingyue's tight hand, and said with a cruel look in her eyes: "Don't pretend to be garlic, the master's son in law is poisoned for you; The son-in-law tried medicine night and night in order to save his master, all because of you, they are good, and they are all gone; If they are not good, I will not spare you. ”

Mingyue looked at Aunt Qiu in despair, tears flowed down like beads with broken threads, seeing that Aunt Qiu's knowledge was limited, she stumbled straight to the county ya, and met Li Shan who went and returned to deliver medicine at the door, but Mingyue seemed to have not seen it, and went directly to the inside, the official was in a hurry, raised the knife to stop him, Mingyue didn't even dodge, and directly bumped into it with her body, fortunately, Li Shan's hand was quick, pulled the knife, and vouched to the officer, and led Mingyue into the yamen for the second time.

It's still that courtyard, the trees are shady, the flowers are budding, the spring is full of vitality, and with the intensity of early summer, Mingyue's heart is gray and cold, and he wants to push the door to ask Cheng Hongluo, but his hand is raised in the air, and he doesn't dare to push, and the sound of his heart beating almost deaf his ears.

Looking at the girl who was still happy like a rabbit in the first half an hour, at this time it was pear blossoms with rain, like white clouds blown by the autumn wind, and she couldn't help herself, although Li Shan didn't know why, he knew that he must have suffered a big blow, and he wanted to ask Cheng Hongluo, but he couldn't make up his mind.

Li Shan knocked on the door twice, and it was opened after a long time, only to see Cheng Hongluo's clothes untidy, sleepy-eyed, and full of sweat on his forehead, and he was obviously stunned when he saw Mingyue, and then realized that he tightened his clothes, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and stammered: "Ming, Mingyue, you, what are you going to do?" I took your wind and cold medicine, I was sweating all over, and I was sleepy, you take it easy, my godfather's body is not resistant to tossing. ”

Mingyue shook her head sluggishly, staring at Cheng Hongluo's eyes, as if shooting straight into the man's heart, "What's wrong with Wei Zhixing?" When exactly did he get poisoned? Is it life or death? ”

Cheng Hongluo's eyes flashed with a hint of panic, he forced himself to calm down, and was about to answer with words, but Mingyue preemptively spoke: "I want to listen to the truth, if you tell the truth, I will not stop you and my mother's affairs, and it is up to you whether it will be successful or not; If you tell a lie, even if you deceive my mother's feelings, I have a way to stop it, but it is up to me whether it will succeed or not. And Gao'er, you don't have to go to my house in the future. ”

Cheng Hongluo's eyes shrank, he groaned for a long time, and let go of his body to the side, Mingyue flashed into the room, and Li Shan was about to come in later, but was stopped by Cheng Hongluo, and his eyes signaled him to stay outside.

Li Shan stubbornly shook the medicine jar in his hand in front of Cheng Hongluo's eyes, which made Cheng Hongluo's mouth nauseous, and the jar of bitter medicine sweat he drank before almost spit out, and the sweat on his body flowed out like a flood, soaking through his middle coat and sticking to his body wet.

Li Shan looked at Cheng Hongluo, who was untidy, and his brows were furrowed like ravines.

Following Li Shan's eyes, Cheng Hongluo finally understood what Li Shan meant, his clothes were not neat, even if it was his godfather and goddaughter, it was inappropriate, if it was spread, Mingyue's reputation would be completely ruined.

Cheng Hongluo turned his body to the side and let Li Shan follow in.

Mingyue sat in front of the table, wiped the blurred tears on her face, and looked at Cheng Hongluo firmly.

Cheng Hongluo glanced at Li Shan, Li Shan put the medicine jar on the table with trouble, and blocked his ears with his two index fingers at the same time, which was a guarantee that he would not listen to the conversation between the two.

Cheng Hongluo said to Mingyue with confidence: "I don't know what happened specifically, I only know that after returning from Xiangyang Village that day, Lord Wei was unconscious and in danger. In order to grasp the amount of poison of each poison, Wei Yan ordered people to catch five kinds of poisons every day and test poisonous insects on himself every day, but with little success. Princess Wei was angry and wanted to track down the relevant people, but fortunately, Lord Wei instructed Wei Yan to block the news, but after all, the paper did not stop the fire, when Lord Wei woke up, regardless of the poisonous situation on his body, he forced Princess Lu to return to the capital together, as for what happened after returning to the capital, I don't know. ”

"Poisoned?" Mingyue's mind was confused? That day, at home in Xiangyang Village, he had also been poisoned, and it was also the "Five Poison Scatter", but except for a few moments of fainting at the beginning, he was fine? When he came to Wei Zhixing's place, why did he get into a big problem?

Mingyue racked her brains and thought about it, and suddenly remembered the medicine that Wei Zhixing gave herself, at that time, it seemed that only one was poured out of the porcelain bottle, thinking about it like this, Wei Zhixing, a fool, wouldn't it be because the antidote was given to him, and he was on the line of life and death, right? If you want to die for yourself, why do you say those heartless words.

Didn't you say, "I am the only one who can bear the world, and no one in the world can bear me." Whoever has a different thought will be punished with a short punishment; and those who reckoned with me will demand it tenfold; Those who bear my heart will snipe for thousands of miles to kill"?

So, I doubt you, how have you punished him? I have calculated against you, and how have you demanded it tenfold? I have lost you, how have you ever sniped and killed you? Perhaps, you have punished, demanded, and killed, and let yourself suffer in your heart, so cold as death.
