Chapter 133: The Concubine Serves Chunhua
After Yin Le listened to Mu Zihui's narration. He didn't say anything. He only looked at Mu Zihui with a calm face for a while. She was angry. Although this is the way of the world. It's not the first time she's heard of something like this happening to the people. But. When things were so close to her life. She still couldn't accept it.
Mu Zihui was stared at by her. Scared in my heart. He bowed his head in fear. This woman has been humbled to this point. One eye of the kind. It can also make her tremble.
Yin Le retracted his gaze. said lightly: "What about your nieces." You take them to live in the Liu family's courtyard temporarily. Don't come back here just yet. ”
Mu Zihui's eyes were a little shocked. Eyelashes flutter. Like a frightened dog's tail grass. "This." Not so good. ”
"Do you want to be abused to death by your mother?" Yin Le asked again, "What about your sister-in-law?" ”
Mu Zihui said: "She watched the child in the back room. Make breakfast by the way. ”
"You tell her to come out. I have something to ask her. Yin Le said.
Mu Zihui hurriedly got up. Daddy Namu is one step faster than her. "I'll go." You speak. He said. Hunched in.
After a while. I saw a ten-year-old girl walking out with a few children. She was dressed in floral coarse cloth. Tied with a strap around the waist. Around his neck is a statue of Kannon. Exposed to clothing. The girl's face was dark. The facial features are not very refined. It can even be said that it is somewhat ugly. Just stood there timidly. Meet Chu Ye and Yin Le. I didn't dare to come. As for the children around her. The oldest is about seven years old. The middle is five or six years old. And the smallest one. Around four years old. They are all very skinny. The face is dirty. There are traces of soot or soot. Hands are pitch black. The nails were all covered in mud. It's pitch black. Yellowish hair. It can be seen that it is long-term malnutrition. They stood behind the concubine. The probe came out and looked. Don't dare to come over.
Yin Le felt that something was swelling in his heart. This emotion made her very uncomfortable. She knew that Mu Rentong's salary was ten taels of silver a month. This is said in the capital. He is already a high-income person. The house can be purchased and repaired. The standard of living can also be raised. Even if you really can't mention it. Children aren't going to go hungry like this.
Chu Ye never spoke. When this concubine came out with the child. He cursed in a low voice. In a commanding tone, he said to Yin Le: "Hurry up and settle them." ”
Yin Le didn't care about his tone at this time. She stepped forward and asked the concubine. "What's your name?"
The little concubine said timidly: "My name is Chunhua." ”
"Spring flowers. You tell me. What was going on in the delivery room that day. Although Yin Leshen felt that Wang Yue'e would not strangle her child. But. Ask questions about things. Let's talk later. It's also a little more confident.
Spring flowers and tears came all at once. Pumping and squirting for a while. Then he looked up. I saw that my mother-in-law was not in the house. He began to say, "That night. I heard Sister Yue'e shouting. I'll go out and have a look. Later, my mother-in-law told me that Sister Yue'e was about to give birth. Let me take the child back to the room. Children are not allowed to come out and make trouble. I'm afraid of my mother-in-law. Don't dare to disobey your mother-in-law. So he took the three children back to his room and went to sleep. Later, it was about the time of the ugly time. I was woken up by Sister Yue'e's shouting. She wailed. It's hard work. I went to see it. Mother-in-law watching the dog in the yard. Dogs also give birth to cubs. The mother-in-law said that this dog is a good breed. Giving birth to a puppy can be sold for a lot of money. Then I wasn't allowed to see Sister Yue. But Sister Yue'e really screamed in pain. I'm afraid I'll wake up the kids. I secretly went to find my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law has already been helping in the delivery room. Later, she rushed out and called her mother-in-law to ask for a stable mother-in-law. My mother-in-law said not to waste money. It is better to say that it is better to be born stillborn. It's better to be both big and small. My sister-in-law and I didn't dare to go. I had to secretly go back and boil rice soup for Sister Yue'e. But on the second day. Sister Yue'e still can't be born. The sister-in-law and mother-in-law fought again. I sneaked out the back door and asked for a stable wife. Wen Po is here. The mother-in-law would not let you in. also scolded Wen Po away. I grabbed Wen Po. I asked Wen Po for medicine. Pour it down for Sister Yue. It takes about a quarter of an hour to pour it down. Sister Yue'e rolled on the bed in pain. Not long. And the boy came out. I saw it was a boy. So he cut the umbilical cord. Take it out and show it to your mother-in-law. Who knows the mother-in-law to take a look. Let's say it's stillborn. ”
From her narrative, it can be seen that she is a completely uneducated rural girl. The logic of the speech is not clear. But. Ren is so. Yin Le still understood. Yin Le asked, "That is to say." Yue'e is from the birth of the child to the time the child is lost. She had no contact with children at all. ”
"No, I didn't. I can't even look at it. She almost passed out when she was born. Later, her mother-in-law went in and beat her. She was unconscious. Chunhua's tears and snot fell together. She was a rural girl. Although poor. But it is also pampered by parents. Nothing like this has ever happened. So this thing is for her. Also a shadow.
"Good girl. You saved Yue'e's life. Yin Le could almost imagine the situation at that time. If she hadn't gone out to find a stable woman. There was no such thing. This Wang Yue'e is probably gone.
Chunhua cried: "But Sister Yue'e was driven away. Xianggong has not returned. Mother-in-law has been fierce lately. Don't scold me in the future. Since I helped Sister Yue. She scolded me together. My sister-in-law was beaten many times. Look at my sister-in-law. It's all wounds. ”
Mu Zihui is used to being abused. Tears never fall for themselves. It's just the same woman. She felt sad for her sister-in-law. Listen to what Chunhua said. She hurriedly stepped forward to wipe away her tears. "Sister-in-law. Don't cry anymore. Don't cry anymore. Don't freak out the kids. ”
Chunhua heard Mu Zihui mention the child. Immediately stopped crying. It can be seen that she loves children very much. Although she didn't give birth to it. But she's not that old. I can play with the children again. Feelings are there.
Chu Ye asked. "Where is Wang Yue'e now?"
Mu Zihui listened to Chu Ye's words at first glance. I was so scared that I shuddered. The Lord Regent asked her. She kept her head down. stammered: "Back to ..... Return..... The Prince's ..... Words ....."
Chu Ye glanced at Yin Le impatiently. Yin Le asked Mu Zihui softly. "Is your sister-in-law in her mother's house now?"
Mu Zihui's tense expression finally relaxed. He replied, "Yes." was driven away by his mother. Now in my mother's house. ”
Yin Le frowned and said, "Drive away." Isn't she still very weak? Can you withstand such a dozen or two troubles? ”
"If you can't stand it, you can't do it. I asked the cart to pull it back. The sister-in-law is reluctant to go. Thrown into the car by two coolies. Mu Zihui said, his eyes turned red. She doesn't shed tears for herself. But it is inevitable to pity the sister-in-law.
Yin Le was worried about Wang Yue'e's body. glanced back at Chu Ye. Chu Ye said: "Let's go." Check it out. ”
Yin Le ordered Hongyan to stay here. Settle the ladies and children. As for the old woman coming back. Don't rush to clean her up yet. Wait for the Muslims to come back with them. Again, the account is settled.
