Chapter 157: Chips (3rd Watch)
Hua Jin walked over with a smile on the corner of his mouth......
Aunt Tong has endured and failed for many years, which made Hua Jin a little hated her, and even sympathized with this opponent.
The woman in the backyard has only two things in her life. The husband loves him, and the children are well.
But these two seemingly simple things are so rare in the backyard of this deep house, especially for an aunt like Aunt Tong.
"Five girls." Aunt Tong bowed slightly to Hua Jin, but she was neither humble nor arrogant, "I didn't expect to meet like this." ”
Hua Jin bowed, "Yes! She waved her hand and motioned to Mother Chen, Bai Tao, and Zhi Tao, "You all go out, let me talk to Aunt Tong alone." ”
"Five girls." Zhi Tao stepped forward with some anxiety, "I'm afraid of ......"
It was Mother Chen who interrupted Zhi Tao's words, "It seems that Aunt Tong has already devoted herself to cultivation, and there is nothing to be afraid of those who practice sincerely." ”
Aunt Tong also waved her hand to Xiangyun, and she took Chen's mother and others out of the inner room.
Hua Jin looked at Aunt Tong's Taoist dress and smiled unconsciously, "Aunt Tong's news is quite well-informed." Over there, Hua Wei had just been locked up in the firewood room, and she had already gotten the news and changed into a Taoist robe, it seemed that she had already thought of a way out for herself.
Hua Jin didn't say anything, Aunt Tong had already knelt on the ground with a plop, "Ask the five girls to be fulfilled!" ”
"Accomplish what?" Although Hua Jin understood what she wanted, she still wanted to hear what this woman said and what kind of story she had behind her, "Just get up and speak." ”
"The body of a sinner is inconvenient." Aunt Tong was still kneeling there, "I beg the fifth girl to take good care of the sixth girl Hua Rui in the future." After speaking, she didn't wait for Hua Jin to answer, and then kowtowed.
"Why should I take care of an enemy who gave me poisoned sachets to harm me?" Although Hua Jin is now very sure that Hua Rui should not know about the poisonous weeds, she really wants to know how Hua Rui developed such a temperament.
Aunt Tong raised her head, her face was already full of tears, "This matter really has nothing to do with the six girls, it is all done by the sinner alone." ”
"How do you prove it?"
"It was the sinner who made the sachet for the sixth girl to give to you and the seventh girl, and she really didn't know anything. The sixth girl was timid, and it was the sinner who forced her to deliver sachets. The fifth girl can now go and check it, and the sixth girl still has the scars on her body from the sinner's whipping with wattles. ”
"So that's how she came over since she was a child?"
Aunt Tong knelt on her knees and moved two steps forward, "The sinner has no choice, she is the only concubine in this Hongxun Courtyard, and being too flamboyant will do her all kinds of harm and no benefit." ”
What Aunt Tong said is not reasonable, if Hua Rui was too prominent, Luo might have pulled out this thorn in his eye a long time ago, but Hua Jin did not fully agree with this kind of suppression of human nature.
"After Luo entered the mansion, he agreed with me to keep Hua Rui by his side, and I always taught her to bow her head and not talk nonsense, as long as she didn't listen to me, I would whip her with wattles. Let her remember it for a long time, and at the same time, in order not to leave a scar on her body, he used another herb to remove the scar on her body. ”
Hua Jin thought of the background of Aunt Tong, who her brother asked people to inquire about, she opened a herbal medicine shop before her home was broken, and she liked to raise cats since she was a child, so she knew the nature of cats very well.
"You have already inquired about the eldest lady early in the morning, and the princess is going back to the house this time, and when you see this opportunity, you want to clear the two obstacles between me and Hua Wei, so that Hua Rui can get a chance? But have you ever thought that there are two girls in the third room, and the third aunt is calculating, so Hua Rui can really benefit? ”
The tears on Aunt Tong's face were half dry, and she snorted lightly and smiled. "Naturally, the sinner has some calculations."
The crystal teardrops made her face a little colored, and it could be seen that she was also a little beautiful when she was young.
"If there is only one girl left in the third room, then the sinner will go out of this room and beg the master, and the master will definitely agree."
I didn't expect Aunt Tong to have this self-confidence, but Hua Jin didn't expect it, it turned out that Aunt Tong said that it was not because she didn't dare to compete with Luo for favor, but because she was unwilling.
She was a little strange how Aunt Tong became her father's aunt back then.
"I was almost at the age of leaving the house, and I was happily waiting for that day to come and marry my cousin, but I didn't expect to meet the second master who was in a bad mood and drunk on duty that night."
There is no need for Aunt Tong to say any further, what happened later is no different from the plot in the common small talk book.
Unexpectedly, some of the women around my father wanted to get him in every possible way, and some tried every possible way to escape from him, which is really embarrassing.
Hua Jin looked at the poor woman in front of her, she was also a hateful woman, and her method of using poisonous herbs as sachets was indeed too vicious.
Aunt Tong knelt down and moved two steps on her knees, and finally bowed down and kowtowed to Hua Jin, "The sinner wants to accompany the seventh girl Hua Wei to Liuyunguan Qingxiu and ask the fifth girl to be fulfilled." ”
"Aunt Tong's abacus is quite loud." Hua Jin raised his lips and smiled, "You took the initiative to ask to go to Liuyunguan, so that your matter will be covered up, then Hua Rui is not the daughter of a sinner." But if it weren't for my great life and the resolution of such a big crisis, I would have slept in the cold ground today, why do you think I would forgive you and grant your request? ”
"Watch out for Mrs. Tai!"
Aunt Tong whispered this and raised her head to look at Hua Jin, "The sinner can see that the five girls today are different from the past, and the five girls will have a good future in the future, and they will definitely not worry about people like me." And he said no more.
Aunt Tong is really a smart person, and she knows how to use such a bargaining chip at this time, it turns out that she and her brother are not the only ones in this family who can see Mrs. Tai's evil intentions.
Hua Jin's head agreed with this bargaining chip, although she had already begun to be careful of her grandmother.
"Aunt Tong, get up, I promise you." With that, he turned around and walked out of the house.
Although Aunt Tong also murdered her like Hua Wei, this is also considered an attempted murder in modern law, and she will spend the next half of her life in that prison-like Taoist temple, which can be regarded as a reasonable punishment.
What's more, her action this time also helped her clear the obstacle of Hua Wei.
Seeing her come out, Mother Chen, Bai Tao, and Zhi Tao hurriedly surrounded her, and Xiangyun also hurriedly opened the curtain and entered the inner room, it seems that she is also a loyal protector.
"It's all settled." Hua Jin looked at the three servants who were looking at her worriedly, "Let's go back." ”
Bai Tao stepped forward to support her, Chen's mother followed behind, and Zhi Tao hurriedly carried a lantern to lead the way, "The fifth girl carefully pays attention to her steps. ”
Out of the courtyard, a cold wind blew, and Bai Tao was busy using his body to block the cold wind for Hua Jin.
Hua Jin looked around Honghun Courtyard, it will be more and more deserted here from tomorrow, but fortunately there are warm-hearted people around her.
