Chapter Seventy-Seven: Daydreaming (4)
Seeing that Sister Zhang was aggressive, Mrs. Chu was impatient, she sat back on the sofa, folded her arms in front of her chest, and said in a cold voice, "You know what your daughter looks like, I said that the weather is cold and let her wear more clothes, she herself has a cold stomach ache and wants to go back to the room to rest, how do we know that she will suddenly have a miscarriage?" To put it bluntly, your family's conditions have not been good since she was a child, her nutrition is not sufficient, and her foundation is weak, isn't it the children and grandchildren of our Chu family who are not there at this time? If you insist on us carrying this black cauldron, I will never admit it. If you feel that your daughter has been wronged, then bring her back, our family really can't afford to serve such a delicate woman! In case her own body is weak and one day disappears in our Chu family, don't you want our whole family to pay for their lives? ”
"What did you say!" The other party actually opened his mouth to curse his daughter, Sister Zhang's eyes suddenly widened, and she rolled up her sleeves and was about to rush forward, so frightened that Zhang Xiaofei's lips turned blue, and she desperately grabbed her mother's wrist with her hand, but Mrs. Chu on the opposite side said fearlessly, "It is said that there are many widows, I think what I said is not bad, not to mention that your mother and daughter are connected by blood, it is difficult to guarantee that there is no inheritance of 'Kefu', our Chu family is really blessed!" ”
I couldn't help frowning when I heard it, this Mrs. Chu was too tricky, not only cursing her daughter-in-law for her early death, but also exposing Sister Zhang's old scars, and I also heard a rough idea from their conversation.
No wonder I haven't been able to see Zhang Xiaofei's father, it turned out that he had already passed away, and it was not easy for Sister Zhang to bring up her daughter alone, but I was afraid that at that time, in order to raise her daughter, she had to go to the song hall to be a dancer. As for this Mrs. Chu, she is no better, although she lives a life of fine clothes and food, she is a nameless lady, so Chu Junxi's status in the family is not much higher, thinking about these two families is complicated enough.
"Lin Yujiao, you are cheap, since you don't treat our mother and daughter so much, then good, your son will be home in a while, you have the ability to say in front of him, as long as you dare to say let us go, our mother and daughter will never step into the Chu family again. However, in front of me, my daughter, a yellow flower girl, married into your family, and also had a miscarriage injury, this account must be settled with you no matter what, otherwise we will see you in court! Sister Zhang was also dizzy, her face was pale, her eyes seemed to be congested, and the words she said were not through her brain, but let Mrs. Chu Lin Yujiao take advantage of the loophole.
I only heard Lin Yujiao chuckle, turned her head to look at the maid standing next to the sofa and said, "Did you hear that?" How can I say it, their mother and daughter just took a fancy to our Chu family's money, and they always lived up to themselves, if they were really high, they would pack up their things and leave now, they didn't want our money. After speaking, he didn't wait for the maid to answer, don't turn his eyes to Sister Zhang's angry eyes, pull the corners of his mouth and ask with a very sarcastic smile, "How much do you want to leave the Chu family, report a number, I'll see if your daughter is worth this number!" ”
"Lin Yujiao, there is a kind of you saying it again!" Sister Zhang couldn't bear it anymore, and roared with a screaming voice.
Zhang Xiaofei behind her was frightened by this scene, and she retreated again and again with a white face, and in her terrified eyes, the surging torrent was deep despair.
When I saw her expression, my heart jumped, and I suddenly felt bad.
But the two women in the hall only cared about arguing, and no one noticed Zhang Xiaofei's expression at all.
Watching her step by step retreat, all the way to the stairs, she sat down on the stairs with a butt under her feet, but she didn't stop, but turned around and ran up the stairs quickly.
Maybe she's just scared, frightened, and doesn't know what to do with the situation, I consoled myself.
The quarrel between the two women Zhang and Lin continued to be heard in my ears, one wanted to seek justice for the grievances suffered by her daughter, and the other decided that the mother and daughter of the Zhang family were greedy for the money of the Chu family.
Syllable!
The crisp sound spread, and the hall suddenly became quiet, and I looked up in surprise, and saw that Sister Zhang's arm was still raised in the air, and Lin Yujiao, who was standing in front of her, was dumbfounded, and her face was full of disbelief.
On the right side of her face, five clear fingerprints emerged, dazzling red.
The deathly suffocation filled the air, even I couldn't believe that Sister Zhang actually slapped Mrs. Chu, after all, she was still an in-law, after all, her daughter was still a daughter-in-law in the Chu family, how could she be so impulsive? Did she ever think about what kind of embarrassment Zhang Xiaofei would put in by doing so?
My mind was so full of confusion that I couldn't imagine how things could have come to this.
"You dare to hit me?" A sharp, ugly female voice sounded, Lin Yujiao recovered from extreme shock, covered her face with her hands, and asked in disbelief.
Coincidentally, Chu Junxi's voice came from outside the door, "Mom, what's wrong?" Why didn't the door close? ”
Immediately afterward, I saw something falling rapidly from the sky outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window, and there was a loud bang, tearing the silence of the night sky, and a golden laurel tree next to it shook for a long time, and the sound sounded very loud.
I was stunned for a moment, as if my heart had been pulled hard.
The two women in the hall also froze, forgetting about the quarrel.
In the courtyard, Chu Junxi's heart-rending shout soon came, "Xiaofei, Xiaofei......!" ”
Sister Zhang reacted and stumbled towards the runner, and I ran out almost instinctively, completely ignoring Lin Yujiao's expression.
In the courtyard, the cold moonlight shrouded the earth, stretching straight from the door of the living room to the bluestone road at the door, there was Zhang Xiaofei lying motionless, red blood was constantly gushing out of the back of her head, so startled that Chu Junxi took her into his arms, and shouted with tears in his eyes, "Xiaofei, what's wrong with you?" Why are you so stupid? Why don't you wait for me to come back? Why did you jump off a building? Why? ”
By the end of the shout, the voice had become frenzied, and the waves of the boundless night were no longer as quiet and peaceful as before.
Sister Zhang, who rushed out of the hall, couldn't believe the scene in front of her, and fell to the cold ground as soon as her knees went limp.
I stood in the doorway, unable to tell what I was feeling, just sour, uncomfortable.
Because I never thought that Zhang Xiaofei would choose such a decisive way to save her life, but it is not difficult to imagine how frustrated, painful and desperate she was at that time.
She was already under boundless pressure, she suffered the first miscarriage in her life, the child was gone, and before she had time to get her husband's comfort, she encountered the confrontation between her mother and her mother-in-law, and she did not give up, even if the two of them were finally willing to compromise for the sake of their children, would she have a better life in the Chu family in the future? Excessive sadness and despair made her lose hope in life, so she chose to end it and use her life to end the cause and effect of all this!
