Before leaving the house, Du Ruo heard Cai and Song Jinhua talking about Guo Xi'er, a girl from a neighboring village, and her dowry. She strode out of the courtyard gate, and no one in the three people behind her paid a word to her, as if she didn't exist.
Maybe this time they are going to kick her out of the Song family, just wait for Song Ju'an to come back and make it clear to her.
She didn't want to make another fuss in vain, and in the end it didn't work out.
I don't know what happened to the fire in Xiuzhuang last night. At that time, the fire was so big, the flood was generally unstoppable, and the dozens of people in the yamen were of no avail, and when she thought of this, her heart ached so badly, her chest seemed to be pressed by a heavy object, and it was difficult to breathe.
The scene of yesterday's meeting with the Meng family still comes to mind from time to time, and they are the same as before, and she has not been able to see any heinous and false righteousness in their faces.
If it weren't for this, they would all be very good people in her eyes.
She is extremely lucky to be able to work in Xiuzhuang, which is a very important step for her to step out of the quagmire.
She didn't understand why Meng Yuanzhou chose such a tragic way to end everything and bury all the sins in a fire.
However, Du Ruo comforted himself that Xiuzhuang was so big, there were several ponds in it, and there was a river that ran through Zhuangzi, they should be fine, and the fire last night only burned all the evidence.
But wasn't the evidence taken out by her and handed over to Master Wu......
Her mind was in turmoil, and she refused to believe the worst, so she came up with many far-fetched reasons in the hope of coming up with a reasonable explanation.
When he walked near Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's house in a daze, Du Ruo heard a heart-rending cry from Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's house, which was the dry howl of a young woman.
There was a thud in her head, and she was a little unsteady on her feet, and for a moment all the sounds in her ears disappeared.
When he walked outside Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's house, Du Ruo saw a pitch-black coffin in the middle of the room, paper money burning in the brazier, and a pile of ashes on the ground.
A young woman knelt beside the coffin, turned her back to her and cried sadly: "Mother! The daughter is not filial...... Woowoo...... My daughter didn't take good care of you........................"
There were also two little children standing in the room, one with tears on his face, shrugging his shoulders and sobbing, and the other was too young, biting his fingers and standing next to the big one, with a little fear on his face, but very quiet, and when he saw someone outside the door, he turned his head to look at her.
Before that, Du Ruo tried his best to control himself, suppressing all his emotions, trying to calm himself down and calm down.
However, when this scene appeared in front of her, all the barriers and armor she had built in her heart were shattered, and she couldn't help but cry.
People in the village said that Zhou Ning's mother-in-law had a strong temper and was not easy to get along with, that her hands and feet were not clean, she didn't interact with her much, and she was always alone. The daughter is married and has her own home and children, and she works all day in the fields in front of the stove, and she doesn't have much time to come back to visit her.
Recalling her in the past, she was not only not as stubborn and stubborn and bad-tempered as others said, but she was kind and amiable. Every time she came here to sit, the two of them didn't say a few words, Zhou Ning's mother-in-law was old and her ears were not good, so she couldn't hear what Du Ruo was saying most of the time.
Du Ruo was upset and sad, and sat on the side and told her about it, and he didn't expect any response.
She was thinking before that if she left Donggou Village, there would be no one else for her to miss except Zhou Ning's mother-in-law, and if she had a better life one day, she would take her and take care of her.
There are few people in this world who really care about her, and now Zhou Ning's mother-in-law, who is the best to her in her heart, is gone.
The tears couldn't be stopped, the more they flowed, as if they were going to drain all the tears in this life, and every time they cried, their chests hurt and gasped.
During this period, Du Ruo crouched in front of the coffin, his voice whimpering, and he didn't know how to intermittently finish the words he heard from the Meng family yesterday to Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's coffin.
She didn't steal anything when she was working in the Meng family, but the master just wanted to cover up the ugliness of the family and out of consideration for her external reputation, so she planned to drive people away.
It's a pity that Zhou Ning's mother-in-law has been haunting the things in her heart and refusing to let go, and now she will never know the truth.
Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's daughter saw Du Ruo crying so sadly, so she came over and patted her on the back, wanting to comfort her, but she couldn't help but bow her head and cry.
Du Ruo learned from Zhou Ning's mother-in-law's daughter that when she came here to visit her mother-in-law the afternoon before yesterday, she found that the door could not be opened, so she felt that something was wrong, and slammed the door open, and saw her mother-in-law lying calmly on the bed, and the person had passed away.
Then there is the funeral and the funeral.
Du Ruo cried almost all morning, until he had no strength to cry.
She came out of there top-heavy and headed home, her heart heavy and desperate.
When she walked outside Song's house, her stomach churned, and she was uncomfortably tight, so she squatted down and retched.
It's about being too sad.
But there was nothing in his stomach, and Du Ruo vomited for a long time and didn't vomit anything.
The door of Song's house opened from the inside, and someone walked quickly towards her.
"You're back! You're not feeling well, are you? What's wrong? It was Song Ju'an's voice, "My mother and eldest sister said that you went back to your parents' house, and I was going to pick you up in a few days." ”
Seeing that her face was pale, her lips were bloodless, and her face was full of tears, he covered her chest with one hand and retched, and hurriedly wiped the sweat off her forehead with his sleeve, and patted her back again, "I'll take you to see Langzhong!" ”
"Don't touch me!" She pushed him away, but she fell to the ground unsteadily.
Probably afraid that he would come again, she sat up and moved back, trying to stay away from him.
Song Jinhua stepped out of the courtyard door, looked outside curiously, and when she saw Du Ruo sitting on the ground, she hurriedly ran out and grabbed Song Ju'an, "Ju'an, I told you that this hoof is full of lies and can't be believed!" She said early in the morning that she would go back to her parents' house, and this is back! ”
Song Ju'an raised his foot and wanted to walk over, but Du Ruo moved back a few more times, "Don't come here!" Don't touch me! ”
"She was looked at like this, and she thought that our Song family had done something to her! Ju'an, what did my mother tell you just now?! You're the wind in your ears, aren't you?! divorced her, and drove Ming'er to let people say that the matchmaker married a girl from the Guo family! Song Jinhua pouted again.
Du Ruo looked up at him and said slowly: "Let's either go to the yamen now, or you give me a letter of resignation and let me go." ”
Song Ju'an's face immediately sank, and he just looked down at her.
"Du Rulan!" Not far away, Qi shouted, grabbed Zhao Jinbao's hand with one hand and walked this way, and said resentfully: "Look at what good things you have done!" Smash such a big hole in someone's head! You want to kill someone, don't you?! ”
"Why did Jinbao offend you? You're going to stone him! I don't want to mention the things you do on weekdays between our two neighbors, and you have to smash such a big hole! Qi pulled Zhao Jinbao to them, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he didn't seem to be surprised, and scolded again: "If your Song family doesn't give me an explanation today, we'll find the village chief!" You don't care if you call this cheap hoof a bully! It's unreasonable, isn't it! ”
Qi pressed his hand on Zhao Jinbao's head again and pointed it to a few people, "Take a look!" Look at it! ”
Zhao Jinbao screamed in pain and wanted to run away, but was pulled by Qi, "What are you running?!" If you don't talk about it today, she will beat you tomorrow! ”
"Auntie, what are you talking about! Du Rulan beats your son, you fight back, you can't scold our Song family! Song Jinhua said with a straight face.
"Second sister! Why are you sitting on the ground! ”
Du Ercheng walked over from another road with a few pheasants in his hand, followed by Han Liang with hunting tools.
He shouted that voice drew everyone's attention, Du Ercheng ran over, threw the pheasants tied together on the ground, glanced at everyone again, walked to Du Ruo and bent down to help her.
Du Ruo was helped to stand up by him, and Du Ercheng looked at everyone again.
"People don't help people when they fall, what are you doing here?!" Du Ercheng was a couple of humanitarians, and turned his head to look at Du Ruo.
I don't know if I don't look at it, I was startled when I saw it, I was sick at this look, and my face was as white as white paper!
"Brother-in-law, what's the matter with my second sister?" Du Ercheng hurriedly turned around and asked Song Ju'an.
"Stay safe! You heard it just now, she just asked you to leave the book, you write to her and tell her to leave! Song Jinhua pulled Song Ju'an's sleeve.
Du Ercheng's eyes widened, "Second sister, what's going on?!" ”
"I don't care about your family's affairs, let's talk about the beating first, it's not the same time!" Qi pulled Zhao Jinbao and said.
"Hit whom? Who hit it?! Du Ercheng turned his head and asked impatiently.
"Hit our family into the treasure! Du Rulan hit! Your second sister! Qi also crossed his waist and was not to be outdone.
"He always said something unpleasant to me, so I naturally wanted to beat him." Du Ruo said hoarsely.
Du Ercheng listened and grabbed Zhao Jinbao's clothes, and punched him in the nose, Qi screamed, and hurriedly protected his son, pushing Du Ercheng, Du Ercheng grabbed Zhao Jinbao's collar and refused to let go, even kicked and beaten, Zhao Jinbao raised his head and cried wolf.
The side scuffled together, Du Ruo took a deep breath and looked at Song Ju'an: "Give me a letter of resignation!" ”
Song Ju'an's eyes were silent, and he pursed his lips and looked at her.
Seeing that he was silent, Song Jinhua hurriedly pulled his sleeve again.
Han Liang also stood aside in shock, not knowing what to say for a while.
"Since you won't let me go, that's good!" Du Ruo took out a piece of paper from his body and unfolded it and handed it to him, "This is the Hugh book, you take it." The way of husband and wife, if there is righteousness, it will be together, and if there is no righteousness, it will go, and from now on, men and women will marry, and they will have nothing to do with each other. ”
Cai Shi and Shi Wanli also walked out of their homes a long time ago and stood aside. Hearing her words, Cai's anger trembled a little, it was the first time Shi Wanli had seen such a thing, it was none of his business, and he hung up high, smiling and looking at everyone.
Song Jinhua snatched the piece of paper, flipped it over and over a few times, took a bite of Du Ruo, and tore the paper off very neatly, "You slut still want to embarrass the Song family before leaving, don't you?!" ”
