Chapter 205: Luring the Snake Out of the Hole
The old and young masters of a village, holding torches, searched along the official road to the town, and found the wreckage of a donkey cart hanging on the cliff on the way, as well as a little girl's shoes...... Alas! It's a pity that a lively and cute little girl! He died at such a young age......
Many families in the village quietly educate their children behind their backs: When you pass through that mountain road in the future, you must be careful, don't be like the girl of the Yu family, planting yourself under the cliff.
The next day, a small "corpse" covered with a white cloth was parked in the courtyard of the Yu family, and the entire Yu family was filled with an atmosphere of "mourning". When the news reached the Yu family's compound, Zhang's eyebrows were raised, and he almost laughed out loud: Yes! The unfilial dead girl, always against her, God can't stand it, right?
The old man staggered in the direction of the old mansion. When I entered the courtyard, I saw a figure covered with a white cloth on the wooden bed, and muttered, "What's the matter, what is this?" How is it that the road is repaired, and people still fall? My granddaughter, why is your life so miserable? ”
Yu Hai squatted beside the wooden bed, hanging his head motionless, like a sculpture. He didn't dare to look up, for fear that others would see the flaws. Under the white cloth is obviously the haystack he used to tie the grass last night, and the old house said that he wanted to pretend to be sad, why pretend......
Yu Hang stood aside, rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then raised his head and shouted at the old Yutou: "Grandpa......"
Xiaolian was really in tears, thinking of her heart palpitations last night, she always felt that something was going to happen, and sure enough, Xiaocao met bandits and almost died. How well-behaved, cute, and capable her little sister is! That bad plague actually poisoned the little sister, and if you find the real culprit, you should let her taste the taste of being thrown off the cliff!!
Xiaoshi howled vigorously at the top of his throat: "Second sister, second sister...... The little stone won't let you go, second sister, you open your eyes and look at the little stone again...... "Yes, it doesn't rain when it's dry!"
As for the Liu family, the family was afraid that she would not be able to act and show her flaws and not find the real culprit, so they asked her to hide in the house, saying that she was too sad and cried and fainted!
The house town and Mrs. Fang also stood by the little figure. One is filled with righteous indignation and wants to avenge his daughter; One wept silently, and several times cried and collapsed beside the wooden bed. Which one of those who came out of the mansion didn't have much acting skills? Mrs. Fang cried so much that several women in the village wept and comforted her again and again.
Lao Yutou looked at the sad scene in front of him, sighed deeply, squatted on the ground and hugged his head silently. This little granddaughter, although he usually doesn't care much about it, but if it's gone, it's still quite unpleasant in his heart.
By noon, all the people who had come to help were almost gone. In front of the Yu family, a familiar carriage stopped, and a slender and weak figure got off the carriage, stumbled into the Yu family, and shouted sadly: "Cousin! Why did you just go there? ”
Mrs. Fang raised her head and looked at her niece with red eyes, her eyes were deep and calm: "Furong, are you back?" Are you feeling better? Also, how do you know it's your cousin who has an accident? ”
Xia Furong whimpered for a moment, and then quickly returned to her senses, and said sadly: "Auntie, you have to mourn!" As soon as I entered the village, I heard someone talking about my cousin...... My cousin suffered such a catastrophe at a young age, which is really pitiful...... Cousin, how can you bear to let your aunt's white-haired person send a black-haired person! ”
Sure enough, it was an acting school, and tears were pouring out as if they didn't want money. Xiaocao, who was hiding in the utility room, watched Xia Furong's series of performances and admired it deeply. Sure enough, the ancient house came out, and there was no fuel-efficient lamp!
Because the "deceased" was a minor and a girl, he could not enter the ancestral grave in the village, nor could he operate it on a large scale, so he could only choose a place in the mass grave in Shannan, swept it with grass, and dug a pit to bury it. Xia Furong participated in the whole process, and after watching the "corpse" be buried, she found an excuse early the next morning and hurried back to the town.
House Town and the Yu family took the two bandits and followed Xia Furong back to the town with their feet in front and back. In the Yu family, the house town arranged for the two bandits to hide in the shadows, and confirmed that Zixiang next to Xia Furong was the one who traded with them.
Catch the thief and catch the stolen goods, in order to prevent Xia Furong from quibbling, the house town and the Yu family and others will get the stolen goods together when Zixiang gives the bandits the remaining silver taels.
When the couple of House Town, Yu Xiaocao and the rest of the Yu family dragged the two bandits and appeared in front of Xia Furong with Zixiang, this little girl who was only thirteen years old actually wanted to quibble.
She looked at Zixiang sadly, and scolded in a tone of hatred that iron is not steel: "Zixiang, you are confused! Although you and I are sisters, I didn't expect you to be angry for me in such a way! Although my cousin was at odds with me and robbed me of a lot of things that belonged to me, I ...... I really don't want her life!! ”
Mrs. Fang looked at her deeply, sneered, and said, "Furong, you said that Xiaocao robbed you of what belongs to you?" Let me ask you, what did she rob you of? When did our Fang family's belongings change their surnames to Xia? ”
Xia Furong could still calmly change her words at this time: "Auntie, it's my niece who made a mistake!" This incident was because Zixiang saw that her cousin had robbed her aunt of her favor, so she was angry for me in her heart, so she did such a wrong thing. Please aunt for the sake of her niece, give her a good time! ”
Zixiang's eyes widened with an expression of disbelief, looking at the young lady who was talking to herself. Miss is planning to put all the blame on her, she is wronged!! When Mademoiselle asked her to do this, she tried to persuade her. But at that time, the young lady's heart had already been blinded by hatred and jealousy, and no one could listen to her. I don't know how the young lady found out about the two ruffians in the town, and took her savings to let her go to the ruffians to commit murder. Why has she become the mastermind now, and the young lady has become an innocent person?
Just as he was about to argue, he saw the young lady's warning gaze. Zixiang's heart was cold for a while, she was the son of the Xia family, and Lao Tzu Niang and her younger brothers were all in the hands of the Xia family. If she tells the truth, not to mention whether she can escape the guilt, it will also affect her family......
Zixiang's heart was like ashes, her legs collapsed to the ground, and she trembled and said, "Slave...... The slave and maid deserve to die, and the slave and maid can't bear to see the young lady being wronged, so she committed a heinous disaster. Damn it......"
"Grievance? In my house, there is good food and drink, and the clothes and jewelry in every season are compared to the share of the eunuchs. I, who is an aunt, have I ever wronged you? ”
Mrs. Fang didn't seem to hear Zixiang's "confession", and looked at Xia Furong fixedly, feeling cold in her heart. After doing something wrong, after being exposed, he can still shirk it to others so calmly, and let a girl who is like a sister carry the black pot, but she has no guilt. She's raising a white-eyed wolf! Over the years, she has been too good to this niece, and she has raised the heart of this thirteen-year-old girl!
Xia Furong hurriedly said: "Although my aunt is not a mother and daughter to her niece, she is like a mother and daughter. My niece has always been grateful......"
Mrs. Fang interrupted her, and said in a deep voice: "You are right about this, we are not mother and daughter after all. Your surname is Xia, not Fang! Everything in the Fang family has nothing to do with you in the future! You have to recognize this! ”
Xia Furong's face finally changed, her face turned pale, and she said expectantly: "Why did my aunt say this, my niece never dared to have such delusions......"
"I know it's delusional, that's right!! Xiaocao is the goddaughter I admit, if the Fang family has no heirs in the future, everything in the Fang family will be hers! And you are just a relative of the Xia family living in the Fang family, that's all! What do you compare to grass? "Mrs. Fang is obviously well versed in the way of house fighting, and she hits the opponent's vital point.
After all, Xia Furong was just a teenage girl, she could no longer hold back the anger in her heart, and the expression on her face became hideous: "Why! Auntie, I've been with you for so many years, isn't it as good as a peasant girl who has just known you for less than half a year? Auntie, think about it, who has been by your side when you have been lonely all these years? Who is there to serve you when you are sick? When you're unhappy, who is pretending to be stupid and making you happy? What's so good about this stupid girl from a low background? Let you treat her one by one? I'm not reconciled!! What is she better than me? ”
After Mrs. Fang revealed her niece's true face, her expression was still indifferent and calm. The indifference in her eyes made Xia Furong's shouting gradually stop.
Mrs. Fang sighed lightly and said, "Furong, you seem to have forgotten what your parents said when I brought you back. You are nothing more than a 'pastime' they gave me. If it weren't for what you said, do you think you still have the value of staying in Fangjia? ”
"Auntie...... Aunt! Xia Furong had an expression of disbelief, she didn't expect her aunt, who loved her and doted on her, to say such hurtful words.
Mrs. Fang continued with a look of self-reproach: "Perhaps, over the years, I have been too good to you, making you forget your duty and your identity. Haven't you always had the idea of becoming Miss Fang? Don't you want to think that if I wanted to take you as a daughter, I should have let you do it many years ago! Do you have to wait until now? ”
The bubble of hope in Xia Furong's heart was punctured, and her heart was full of despair, she rushed to Xiaocao like crazy, but was swept away by the house town and fell to the ground heavily. She wailed in despair, "Why? Why!! What am I inferior to her? What the hell is so good about her......"
Mrs. Fang looked at her compassionately and said slowly: "She may not be as beautiful as you, not as elegant as you, and not as temperamental as you...... But there's one thing you can never do to her. Because, she is purer than you, purer than you! Heart, cleaner than you!! ”
Xia Furong crawled over, hugged Mrs. Fang's legs, and said loudly: "Auntie, this matter is all Zixiang's idea, and it has nothing to do with me, aunt!" ”
