Chapter 180: Human Heart (1)
Ming Fei looked at the hair in front of him that was burned in half. (Apex hand-beaten) gray face, the unconscious golden hairpin and the white dew who was crying in a low voice next to him, the indescribable taste in his heart. Gong Jingqi didn't wait for Ming Fei's instructions, and first supported the mother-in-law and maid to bring water, to find medicine, and to ask for a doctor.
Second Mrs. Gong's face was extremely ugly, and she put on a majestic look and said to Gong Yuanhe: "What is this?" Let her collect the account books, and she will burn the account room? Fortunately, this house is far away from the other rooms, otherwise the entire Gong family would have to be burned down for her! After so many years of account books, how many important things have been burned out, what do you say? ”
Gong Yuanhe tightly held Ming Fei's hand full of cold sweat, and looked at the second Mrs. Gong who was dancing with her teeth and claws coldly: "According to Auntie's wishes, what should I do?" ”
When Second Mrs. Gong saw his careless appearance, she gritted her teeth with hatred, Aunt Zhu coughed slightly, looked at Mrs. Zhao, who stretched her neck to watch the excitement, and said with a smile: "Madam, Mother Zhao is old, and she has been on the road for a long time, but I am afraid that she is tired, how about the concubine first place her old man?" ”
Second Madam Gong glared at her fiercely. "Do you want to ask me about this?" After thinking about it, she stopped Aunt Zhu and called Gong Jingqi, "You take Mother Zhao to dinner, I have already asked people to clean up the guest room, and you can stay when you go." ”
Aunt Zhu lifted her lips, smiled faintly, and stood aside, no longer caring about this matter.
Gong Jingqi walked in front of Mrs. Zhao, half-supported her, and said with a smile: "The maid at home missed the fire, but fortunately it did not cause a major disaster. I scared my mother, and I couldn't help it. Please come down with me for dinner, so that I can rest early. ”
Mrs. Zhao didn't see enough of the excitement, but she also knew that it was inconvenient for her to stay here, so she sighed a few times in response to the situation: "It's evil, but fortunately it didn't cause a big disaster." Don't take your in-laws too seriously. ”
Second Mrs. Gong put away the hideousness on her face and said, "The subordinate is rude and makes my mother laugh." When Mrs. Zhao's back just disappeared into the courtyard, she immediately sneered and looked at Gong Yuanhe: "Your daughter-in-law's dowry maid set fire to the family's account room and silver, what should I do?" You are an official and the head of a family, don't you know what to do? ”
Gong Yuanhe lowered his head and chuckled: "Now that the matter has not been clarified, how does my aunt know that it is the account room that the golden hairpin set on fire?" What did she do in the bookkeeper? She herself was almost burned to death, was she crazy? ”
Second Mrs. Gong snorted coldly: "Do you still need to ask about this?" She was the only one left in the entire courtyard at that time, who could she be? ”
Gong Yuanhe didn't give an inch, "I'm also thinking about this question, who wants to burn the account room so much?" So many books. Who is the best friend for burning? I've never done an account before, and I want to see what is recorded in the account, and it seems that this wish will never come true. ”
Second Mrs. Gong seemed to have been stepped on by her tail and pointed at him: "What do you mean?" ”
Gong Yuanhe let go of her fingertips and said coldly, "What does Auntie think I mean?" ”
Second Mrs. Gong trembled with anger: "Your people burned my house and silver, are you justified?" If you don't beat to death that who set fire to the master's house today, I'm not human! ”
Gong Yuanhe squinted and sneered: "Kill her? I don't know if my aunt knows Dafeng Law? Even if she is a slave, she deserves death for her crimes, and it should be determined by the government. If you set up a lynching and disregard for people's lives, aren't you afraid of lawsuits? Aren't you afraid of dragging down your younger siblings? Do you want the second brother to read it to you? A few words knocked down the arrogance of Second Mrs. Gong.
Gong Yuanzhi saw that things were developing in an uncontrollable direction again, he was annoyed and afraid, and hurriedly interjected: "No one wants to see this kind of thing happen at home, this is just an accident, Jin Hairpin is not a child, what did she do when she set fire to the account room for some reason?" There was no death, isn't it just a few old houses, a few old years' account books? It's not worth much silver. What a noise! Tell people to see jokes in vain. Big brother, don't say a few words, mother, you are not well yet, hurry back and lie down, I will take someone to clean up and clean up. ”
Second Mrs. Gong couldn't say anything about Gong Yuanhe. I didn't want to quarrel with Gong Yuanzhi, so I turned my head and pointed at Ming Fei and cried: "I kindly let you follow me to learn to manage the accounts, so that I can return the family business to you, who thinks that you are a black-hearted and rotten liver, and if you accidentally burn the account room, you will burn it, right?" On the other hand, you still want to beat me upside down and kill me? Where has your conscience gone? Now I can't wash it by jumping into the river, my lord, you are majestic outside, why did you throw such a mess to me, there is no good word for being a cow or a horse, and you have to be framed. I'm not alive! ”
Gong Yuanhe took a step forward to block Ming Fei behind him, and was about to speak, Ming Fei pulled his sleeve and sighed: "Auntie, it was you who said that the golden hairpin deliberately burned the account room, and the person who said that she accidentally burned the account room is still you, and at this moment it is said that I am going to kill you and frame you, so auntie, why should I frame you?" I know you never liked me, that's why you gave me a look at me as soon as I walked through the door, and no matter how much I honored you, you always felt that I had bad intentions, and I tried to die and live for a little thing several times. I can bear anything, but the charge you gave your nephew and daughter-in-law is really unbearable. ”
She looked at Gong Yuanzhi, "Second uncle, this fire is unclear, and it has caused disharmony in our family." I'll look at the newspaper officer. If it's really the golden hairpin's fault, how to compensate, I will compensate, how to punish, I admit it! If it weren't her fault, the mad wicked man would have been brought to justice! If this person is allowed to get away with it, I am afraid that there will be no peace at home! After saying this, Gong Yuanhe squeezed her hand and shook it gently, signaling that she had spoken to his heart, and he meant the same thing.
Once this lawsuit starts, no matter what the outcome is, it will not be beneficial to the Gong family. Gong Yuanzhi saw the faces of Gong Yuan and Tie Qing, Ming Fei's broken expression, Second Mrs. Gong's eyes were a little stunned, and she already roughly understood what the so-called truth was going on, sighed, and said helplessly: "Sister-in-law, my mother is confused, I will compensate you for her!" Please also ask your sister-in-law not to take her foolish words to heart. "Dig it all in.
Ming Fei dodged sideways: "Second uncle, the three of them become tigers, and everyone is gold, if you say the same thing, you can ignore it once or twice, and then talk about the third time." The fourth time is that the heart is vicious, and his heart can be punished. Today's matter, before the truth is clarified, I don't want to say more, and I ask my aunt not to make assertions. ”
Gong Yuanhe said: "Tomorrow, I will call someone to report to the official." almost lost his life, and burned so many expensive and important things, the merits must always be investigated. Second brother, you have to stay up all night, let's list the losses first. No matter what the expressions of Second Lady Gong and Gong Yuanzhi were, they took Ming Fei's hand and ordered someone to lift the golden hairpin and leave.
Second Mrs. Gong saw that they were going to carry the golden hairpin away. Hurriedly stepped forward to stop: "Don't take this away!" How about you go and make confessions? ”
Gong Yuanhe looked at her with a smile: "Auntie, what are you afraid of?" She is a member of our family, if she wants to make a confession or something, hasn't she already made a string? Where can I wait for this time? Or auntie, you can't wait, and you want to beat the drum now? ”
Gong Yuanzhi hurriedly grabbed Second Mrs. Gong: "Big brother, sister-in-law, you go and do your work, if the medicinal materials are inconvenient and there are no ones, ask someone to come and get them." ”
Second Mrs. Gong couldn't say her suffering, her heart was beating like a drum, and she watched the big house take people away.
Gong Yuanzhi waved his hand, drove away the people around him, and helped Second Mrs. Gong back to the room, Aunt Zhu came over quietly: "Second son, let me serve Madame, right?" ”
Second Mrs. Gong didn't see her and was fine, but when she saw her, she couldn't help but jump up, and stretched out her hand and slapped her: "Slut! Watching the excitement is a pleasure, right? Earlier I told you to be good in the kitchen ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
