Chapter 116: The Dawn Emerges
Chapter 116: The light is emerging
The Hell Temple on the outskirts of Kyoto is located not far from the Chongyang Gate, and it is a courtyard with five rooms and four entrances. (Hand hitting)
The first is dedicated to the god of prison, the second is to live in charge of the incense of the prison temple, Zhu Gong and Zhu Po, and the third is to live in the Xu officials of Dali Temple.
Shen Zhen, the former head assistant of the cabinet, was not convicted, and the female dependents of the family were not imprisoned but were imprisoned here.
So when Shen Muqing went to pick up the Li family, a servant who was about forty years old respectfully led her to the gate of the courtyard and stopped: "The young grandmother walked straight forward and arrivedβthere were all female dependents inside, so it was inconvenient for us to go in." β
Shen Muqing's heart that had been hanging fell down.
Being able to treat the female dependents of the Shen family like this, it seems that the Li family and the others did not suffer much.
Ying Fan took out the silver and rewarded him, and helped Shen Muqing into the courtyard.
Two in the courtyard were dressed in coarse cloth. The strange woman was sitting on the platform and talking, and she was stunned when she saw Shen Muqing. One of them greeted him and said with a smile: "This is the aunt of the Shen family, right?" You're here to pick up Mrs. Shen, right? β
Shen Muqing smiled and nodded.
The woman smiled and said, "We are the Wang of Dali Temple. The adults called in to help with some of the rough work. β
Shen Muqing smiled and asked Ying Fan to reward the two women.
Mother Wang heard the movement and walked out, look. Seeing Shen Muqing, tears immediately fell.
Shen Muqing stepped forward and shook Wang's mother's hand: "Mom is frightened!" β
Mother Wang shook her head, took out a handkerchief and wiped her tears, revealing a smile. Come: "Grandma is okay!" β
"Good, good, good!" Shen Muqing nodded again and again, "Is Mrs. good?" β
Wang's mother said "good" and said, "Thanks to Xiao Qi, my wife's medicine has not been available. There was a break, and we took the money out to do some errands, and we were no different from at home. β
Shen Muqing was stunned.
Xiao Sa was so bold, he didn't shy away from it at all......
Wang's mother has said: "It is said that the shopkeeper has received the favor of the master. If it's inconvenient to come forward, let him help with it. β
This is how Li introduced Xiao Sa to people!
"I used to be able to never. Haven't heard of it! Wang's mother was very emotional, "When I came to the house to collect the bills, I was so fierce, who knew that it would change in a blink of an eye...... People still have to do good deeds. You see, this is where it pays off......"
Shen Muqing ignored Wang's mother's nagging, and said with a smile: "Is there still a Pang manager?" β
"Yes, I came with Xiao Qi last time to collect the bills." Mother Wang nodded, tears falling again, "I heard that except for a few of us, everyone in the family has been imprisoned in Dali Temple. Yesterday, Lord Wang came to tell us that we could go back to the old house in Shihuaqiao, but we didn't even have a caller. Fortunately, there is Pang in charge...... I went to Dali Temple early this morning and said that I would take us back to the city after lunch. As she spoke, she tiptoed and looked behind Shen Muqing, "Is my uncle here?" β
As the chief manager of the Shen family, Mr. Wang was naturally imprisoned.
Don't know when it will be released?
Shen Muqing's eyes darkened, and he quickly cheered up and smiled: "Uncle is here." The errand people were not allowed to come in, and I thought that this place was full of women, so I didn't force those who were on errands. β
Mother Wang nodded and led Shen Muqing into the house.
The house was very simple, of course, it couldn't be compared to the Shen family, but it was cleaned.
Entering the bedroom on the east side, Shen Muqing immediately smelled a strange smell.
She couldn't help frowning slightly, but she saw Li Shi snuggling on the big pillow with his eyes closed, his gray hair combed neatly, and his always pale cheeks had a faint sleeve moist, looking very energetic.
Aunt Chen was beating Li's leg on the side.
Hearing the movement, she turned around. Seeing Shen Muqing, she showed a relieved smile, and then made a gesture of "Don't alarm the Li family".
Shen Muqing saw that she could still serve the Li family wholeheartedly in this situation, and no matter what unpleasantness there was before, it had disappeared at this moment.
She and Wang's mother walked out lightly and stood on the platform to talk.
"Is my wife not sleeping well?"
This is all at the right time, how can the Li family still sleep in this situation?
Shen Muqing wondered if she hadn't slept all night.
Mother Wang laughed in a low voice: "Mrs. is sleeping well!" β
Shen Muqing raised his eyebrows.
Wang's mother said: "It was Xiao Qi who saw that his wife was not in good spirits and found a new medicine, and after his wife used it, she would sleep for a while, and when she got up, her spirit became very good." There was joy in his tone.
Shen Muqing was quite surprised. I thought about the foot injury that I had been unable to heal......
Or, there are really remedies.
"Really?" She said happily: "Hurry up and show me, what medicine did Xiao Qi find for his wife?" β
Mother Wang shook her head and said with a smile: "That medicine is in the hands of Steward Pang, and I haven't seen it either." I just know that I have to add it to my cigarette and inhale it......"
Shen Muqing's smile froze on his face, and the green tendons on his sideburns slowly bulged: "Which Xiao Qi?" Where are the people? β
The sound was as cold as the weather for three or nine days.
Wang's mother was stunned, and only said after a while: "He has only been here twice, and he is usually the ...... of Mr. Pang."
Shen Muqing looked up at the sky, let out a long sigh of relief, and couldn't say a word for a long time.
Mother Wang saw that she was very angry, and when she thought about it, her face changed greatly, and she said in a slur manner: "Grandma, could it be that there is something wrong with this medicine...... I've never seen it before, and every time it's the Pang steward who brings it little by little...... I saw that something was wrong with these two people, but my wife nodded, and I couldn't say anything......"
Shen Muqing was very angry. She walked back and forth in the courtyard twice, and when she turned around, she saw Chengxin standing at the gate of the courtyard.
"What's the matter?" She had a bad tone.
The third young grandmother, who usually has a smiling face, glared at her eyes, and her eyebrows immediately revealed a bit of majestic majesty...... It's a bit like the appearance of the Hou Ye and the eldest young master......
Cheng Xin couldn't help but be verbose, and said softly: "The third young master asked, when will we leave?" β
Yesterday, I said that I would pick up the Li family today, but early in the morning, Chen Yazi asked the little maid to send a note, saying that when I was shopping on West Street yesterday, I saw a broken monument, which seemed to be the authentic work of Liu Gongzhi, and asked Liang Jimin to help identify it.
Liang Jimin began to fidget when he saw it.
Shen Muqing looked a little worried, and repeatedly told him: "Today's situation is special, we will pick up my wife and come back early, and let Baimu send you over quickly when the time comes...... Even if it is delayed, it will not be delayed for a long time. β
Liang Jimin nodded again and again at that time, but after waiting for a long time, he became impatient.
Thinking that the Li family was still flying through the clouds and fog, Shen Muqing's anger did not come to a place, and he said sharply: "If the third young master has something, please go first, and I will go back after I settle my wife." β
Wang's mother stopped: "If you have anything to say, you can say it." My uncle specially accompanied you to see your wife. Seeing that it's noon, where do you want your uncle to eat? β
"Wait!" Shen Muqing stopped Cheng Xin, who was about to turn around, "The housekeeper and the little servant at home are still locked up in Dali Temple, tell the third young master, and leave Baimu for me as an envoy." β
Mother Wang heard that her tone was not good, so she shouted "Grandma" with dissatisfaction.
Cheng Xin looked at Wang's mother, and then at Shen Muqing, unable to advance or retreat.
"Leave my uncle here, what are you going to eat?" Shen Muqing deliberately glanced at the humble courtyard, and then instructed Cheng Xin, "Go!" β
Mother Wang's expression darkened when she heard this, she lowered her head slightly, and did not say anything more.
Cheng Xin saw it and went away.
"When will my wife wake up?" Shen Muqing asked Wang's mother.
Mother Wang said in a lonely tone: "Usually you should wake up at the end of the day." β
Shen Muqing saw that the two rough envoys sent by Lord Wang were standing in the corner of the wall looking at them a little helplessly, she sighed softly and said, "Let people start cooking!" β
Mother Wang hesitated: "Auntie, do you want to take a look at the menu, Xiao Qi also sent two buckets of yellow eels two days ago, saying that he would replenish his wife's blood and qi!" β
Shen Muqing was about to answer, but Chengxin ran in: "Third young grandmother, third young grandmother, my uncle said that he will go to Songshu Hutong to pick you up in the afternoon." β
******
When Li "woke up" and knew that his daughter was coming to pick her up, he was naturally overjoyed.
As soon as Shen Muqing saw Li, he explained Liang Jimin's whereabouts to her: "...... I heard that my house was raided, and I was not feeling well for several days. He took a leave of absence to take care of me at home, and he was really embarrassed to take any more leave...... Send me here today and go back, and I'll pick me up at Pine Alley later. β
Li Shi was very happy to hear this, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Tai promised me that I would take good care of you, and I didn't break my promise." β
Shen Muqing smiled and asked Orange Xiang to set the table.
Tian's mother was also imprisoned, and she was taken care of by Aunt Chen herself during this time.
He has been timidly pulling Aunt Chen's sleeve, and Ying Fan wants to hug him, but he refuses, so that Aunt Chen is very inconvenient to act.
Li smiled: "Grandma is not an outsider, just like in the past, sit down and eat together!" β
Aunt Chen's eyes were sleeved, and she sat down at the table with Dashe in her arms.
Suckling pigeon soup, stir-fried pork slices with bracken, assorted tofu, mushroom duck paws, fried quail, stir-fried eel, fresh bean sprouts...... The rice is a green stalk, and the food is very good.
Li took a duck palm and put it in Shen Muqing's bowl: "Lord Wang used to work as an errand under the master, and the two women he found were good, and the food bought by Steward Pang was also fresh...... You taste it. β
The duck paw is bone-backed, very chewy, and the people who cook it are very attentive.
Shen Muqing nodded: "It's delicious!" β
"Then you can eat more!" Li looked at his daughter with a smile and gave her another quail.
******
When I came, I was in a hurry, and the bedding and utensils were all bought with the help of Lord Wang, and Li was not ready to take them away, and then Steward Pang sent some clothes, cushions, tea, candy, incense and other things, because everything was exquisite, and considering that the pine alley was also copied, these things can be used when brought back, Li asked Aunt Chen and Orange Xiang to clean up together, Ying Fan listened, and also rolled up his sleeves to help.
Li and Shen Muqing sat in the hall and talked.
ββ¦β¦ Look at you, you've lost a lot of weight. Frightened, right? β
Shen Muqing said with a smile: "If something so big happens, how can you not be worried and afraid?" β
"Eat a trench, grow a wisdom. You'll naturally be more calm in the future. β
Only then did Shen Muqing understand the contradictions that the Li family had always had.
Indeed, parents always hope that their children will not experience those cruel things, but when the children are really innocent because of their lack of experience, parents are worried that their children do not have enough survival ability...... It's always a puzzle.
οΌo(_)oβ¦ Ha ha...... One more today ...... The more you owe the debt, the less you owe...... οΌ()
