Chapter 43: Cause and Effect Antecedents

Yuan Yi hurriedly came to Beifu, just in time to see the second master Zhuang Lu's personal call for the first household to come out of it, intercept and ask, only to know that the master was talking in the discussion room.

The first household knows that Yuanyi is a big girl in Dongfu, and he wants to respect her a little on weekdays, and he flatters her and says to help deliver the words. Yuanyi was afraid that others would not be authentic, so he insisted on going by himself. So he blindly went to the Beifu council house.

It turned out that Zhuang Lu and the Cao family were arguing before, and the housekeeper hurriedly came to report something, so Zhuang Lu left the Cao family and asked the housekeeper to go to the council hall to say. Cao's vigor was vigorous, and he didn't argue about it, but when he saw Zhuang Lu leaving, his heart became more and more uneasy, and he couldn't sit still and followed him to the conference hall. Unexpectedly, when she came to the door in a huff, she heard the butler and Zhuang Lu talking.

It sounds like Zhuang Lu went to Xinjiang to collect goods, and bought and sold a woman there, because of the collusion between officials and businessmen, the people who returned to the old tribe of Xinjiang were indignant, so they chased and killed them to Kyoto. It probably sounds like it is, so the woman, Zhuang Lu had some shady relationships and slaughtered some people over there. As early as before Yu Qi entered the palace, the people who returned to the old department of Xinjiang had been waiting for an opportunity to murder and take people, but they failed to succeed. Unexpectedly, the second master was a merchant and did not walk in the official, and by mistake, there was a bloody disaster, so Yu Qi had the opportunity to enter the house.

What happened to this later, the Cao family didn't have the heart to listen, only knew that the government had arrested a few and solved it, and a few of them were seriously injured, and the eldest master clearly said that he would stay for treatment and interrogate clearly. Zhuang Lu is not good at not complying, so he can only do what the old man wants. The housekeeper behind them abused them in every way, untilβ€”

I saw the housekeeper say this to Zhuang Lu:

The housekeeper said: "I did it according to the second master's wishes." ”

Zhuang Lu said: "Are your hands and feet neat? ”

The housekeeper said: "Neat, wait for the night to be transported out of the city, find a gutter and bury it." ”

Hearing this murderous and perverted words, Cao wanted to go in and quarrel with each other, but his heart had already flown to Java, and he covered his mouth and ran out. When I got outside, I saw my two daughters Zhuang Zhuang Ying, so I cried loudly, and this attracted those mothers-in-law, so I cried and went to Zhongfu to find the old lady.

Now that the original intention has not arrived, the housekeeper is still quietly plotting with Zhuang Lu how to transport it out, how to bury it, how to use the silver and so on. All have a plan.

After the negotiation was completed, Zhuang Lu ordered the housekeeper to go out immediately, and the housekeeper turned around and went out, and saw Yuan Yi at the end.

Yuan Yi said: "The old lady invited the second master to come over, and also asked the housekeeper to come along." ”

Zhuang Lu was startled, slapped the agate bracelet on his thigh with the string in his hand, and said, "The bad thing is gone!" ”

Zhuang Lu didn't think that the Cao family heard what he said to the housekeeper, and just wanted the Cao family to sue the old lady again because of the quarrel.

Zhuang Ludun was half a minute and responded to Yuan Yi: "I know, I'll go over now." ”

The housekeeper saw Yuan Yi leaving, bent his waist, and said, "Then I ......"

Zhuang Lu said irritably: "The old lady said that you should also go over." After thinking about it again, he said, "If so...... You have to be careful in your words. ”

The butler nodded.

After a while, Zhuang Lu was in front and the housekeeper was behind, and the two hurried to Zhongfu. As soon as I entered the hall, I saw that the wives and aunts of all the houses were there. Cao Shi was on the side, her voice whimpered, Zhuang Lu's feet stepped in, and she immediately howled.

The old lady sat in the hall, full of anger. Zhuang Lu knew that today was not the same as before, and he was afraid that the Cao family would make a bad mistake.

Therefore, Zhuang Lu knelt down to the old lady and said, "Mother." ”

The old lady said angrily: "Have a face to kneel, kneel to your daughter-in-law." Your daughter-in-law said she couldn't live. ”

Zhuang Lu said: "She's messing around." ”

The old lady said, "Nonsense? Is there a reason for fooling around? ”

Zhuang Lu didn't dare to speak.

The old lady said again: "Butler, what do you say, what's going on, what do you say to the second master?" made the second wife cry to death. ”

When the housekeeper heard this, he felt eight or nine points in his heart that he had just been listening to the second master. He immediately knelt down, prostrate on the ground, and said, "Go back to the old lady, that is...... It's ......"

The old lady became more and more violent: "I can't speak clearly, I don't think you should be a housekeeper!" Seeing that Zhuang Lu was a little nervous, he knew that what Cao said was not a lie, so he eased up: "Make it clear, I will spare you." ”

The housekeeper glanced at Zhuang Lu slightly, Zhuang Lu sighed and hooked his head.

The old lady turned to Cao Shi and said, "Second wife, don't cry, listen!" ”

The housekeeper had no choice but to recruit him, and said: "On the day that Miss Qi was injured and entered the mansion, several masters in the mansion went to the palace to carry blood jade coral, and they were robbed halfway. This is a gang of bandits who have returned to Xinjiang. I framed our second master before, saying that our second master robbed someone in the old department, so I chased after ......"

The old lady shook her body angrily, pointed at Zhuang Lu and said, "You are the leader of the lies, the leader of the lying world!" ”

Cao Shi did not relent, and said: "Why is the master in Beppu not framed, just referring to the second master of this Zhuang Mansion?" ”

The housekeeper said: "A few of the bandits ran away that day, and the dead ones were carried to the recording officer." The injured ones were carried back to the house, and the eldest lord strictly ordered them to be interrogated. I asked it, and it was said to be flattering, but the second master ...... Second old man......"

Zhuang Lu took over: "A few shameless thieves want to come to extort, I'll send them a few times." Who would have thought that he would attack a few masters in the house that day? ”

The old lady said, "What kind of face do you have to tell the other masters?" Fortunately, everything is fine, if something happens, the ancestors will not spare you. so that you will fry in the oil pan for the rest of your life, and you will not die well. He was angry and hateful, and then said: "Everyone hides and deceives me and treats me as an ornament." ”

Qin Shi was puzzled, showing a worried look, and said, "Who did the bandit point to the second master and rob?" ”

Zhuang Lu sighed: "I originally bought someone in the old ministry of Xinjiang, and watched the days be included in the mansion. I thought about finding a good day to tell the old lady. One after another, I didn't say that there was no peace in the house. Who would have thought that this would happen. ”

The old lady's tears came out, and the anxious crowd wiped her tears and beat her back to comfort her, and she said, "Oops! Bastard stuff! Bastard stuff! If you want a person, you will spend money to buy one who dares to say that you are not, you are far away to please a boring child, and you will be killed! ”

Zhuang Lu was helpless and sighed: "The old lady knows, she is not dependent on life and death." If you hadn't been in the early years, you would have been a child, and you would have added a child or grandchild. Leng glanced at Cao's and said, "I'm thinking about it, I'll get one back from afar, just arrange it outside, and if the door is not seen, there will be no noise or noise." ”

The old lady said: "I also said, how did you attract a gang of thieves to rob for no reason, it turned out to be you!" ”

As he spoke, he slapped the table and scratched his chest again. The Qin family and the county lord were afraid that the old lady would die of anger, so they hurriedly let Shangcha take a breather.

Where could the old lady stop her mouth, and said, "Your daughter-in-law is crying like this, what do you think should be done?" Your third master's girl, how do you explain! ”

Zhuang Lu glanced at the county lord, full of apologies, and said: "The matter of horizontal and vertical is decided, mother, you are in charge!" No matter how he is punished, his son will be punished. ”

The old lady said, "I'm in charge, okay!" Stay away, don't let me hear these again. ”

Zhuang Lu said awe-inspiringly: "I'm just afraid that it's not easy to get rid of, and I'm pregnant." ”

The old lady was speechless for a moment, opened her mouth, and everyone was shocked. Cao's mouth opened even wider, and he forgot to cry out of his voice.

The old lady was at a loss, not knowing whether she was happy or angry, she got up from the chair tremblingly, and pointed at Zhuang Lu forcefully: "That...... That...... So where do you put people? ”

Zhuang Lu replied: "It was originally going to be arranged in the old house in the south of the city, but I didn't arrange it there because I was afraid that the old lady would go to worship the Buddha during the Dragon Boat Festival." Just settle down in that house in Phoenix Hutong. ”

When the old lady heard this, her previous anger was suppressed, and she was afraid that if she didn't explain to the Cao family, it would not end well, so she was angry again: "If the gangsters come again, you will die, don't be involved in the house." I will not spare you. ”

Cao Shi cried loudly again.

The Qin clan and the county lord glanced at each other, and both of them knew that the old lady had acquiesced to this. Qin Shi said, "Look, this is also a happy event. When the eldest master comes back, I will tell you that he will not be angry with his own brother. Look, I realized that our little aunt in Dongfu was happy, and the second master was also ......"

Hearing Cao's voice was shrill and noisy, the old lady had a headache and said, "Oh, my head hurts from crying." I said second daughter-in-law, don't cry, don't cry! ”

After such a shock, it finally calmed down.

The old lady said: "Since the family is pregnant, it is the second master." I think the second master, you will compensate your daughter-in-law. Reasoning, you should not deceive. Besides, the second daughter-in-law, the second wife, what are you crying about? Someone, really add another kid, you're smiling! In the future, children are not allowed to call you mother! ”

Between the words, no matter how tricky the Cao family was, there was no way to do it, and the old lady decided that it was a matter.

Cao Shi had no choice but to suppress his crying and choked up.

Everyone was stunned by the truth of this sudden change and sighed.

At this moment, the sun is shining outside, the wind is ringing through the forest, and the birds are singing.

Outside the door.

Yu Qi, Sanxi, and Huiyuan came to relax, happened to pass by, heard the crying, and wanted to go in, but because they heard those changes outside, they felt that it was not good to go in, so they slowly turned around and retreated.

The three of them hurriedly returned to Jinghuaxie and immediately closed the door.

Sanxi was overjoyed and said, "It turned out that the second master recruited those people." In the future, let's see what kind of face the second wife will show to the girl. ”

Yu Qi looked thoughtful, a little flustered.

Hui Yuan said: "If it weren't for the second master to support such a big thing, the girl wouldn't have had a chance to enter the mansion." ”

Zhuang Qi sat down, his face changed, and said, "It's not thrilling." Looking back on that day, if it weren't for the eldest wife and the eldest girl, I'm afraid we would all have become ghosts accompanying the funeral. ”

Sanxi smiled: "It seems that the second wife doesn't know how to make trouble!" ”

Huiyuan said: "There are so many things added to the house, so don't get involved in it." ”

Yu Qi remembered the bloody day, and was nervous for a while, but calmed down a little at the moment, and said: "I can't hide, what else do I do in it." After all, I know that this is the case, and I also know what kind of person this person is. ”

Sanxi hated and said: "Looking at the second master's smiling appearance all day long, he also does murder and robbery on the spot." This is knowing the face but not the heart, and it is a smiling tiger. ”

Huiyuan pulled the three joys slightly, signaled to pay attention to speaking, and said to Yu Li: "Girl, it's not easy to come in." With you here, we are the ones who have died twice. ”

Yu Qi said: "I don't have to die twice, four or five times are less." "I put my parents and others in my heart.

Huiyuan said: "So the girl has to pay attention to everything, the girl Bichi, the girl, you are less contaminated." ”

Yu Qi turned his hand and grabbed Huiyuan and Sanxi, and said: "In this mansion, I only have the two of you who can believe it, how can I not know this truth." ”

In this way, the three of Yu Li's master and servant did not leave the house, and they did not go to Shouzhongju to have dinner in the evening, so they sent Huiyuan to reply. During this period, Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Ju came to sit for a while, mostly talking about the second master, and listened to Zhuang Ju crying about how her mother was domineering on weekdays and how she caused her father to be annoyed, which caused such an incident. Yu Qi and Zhuang Yu persuaded for a while before they could persuade well. When the two left, Zhuang Yu came to sit for a while, and said nothing else, just to give some gifts to thank her for her birthday and eyebrow pencil. Then, Zhuang Ying and Su Yuan came over, and Yu Qi pushed away and was unhappy.

When it was time for dinner, Shou Zhongju sent Mei'er to lead the girl to deliver a brocade box of meals, and Yu Qi ate a few bites indiscriminately.

When I want to rest, I don't feel sleepy, and I can't read the book.

Huiyuan and Sanxijing accompanied one side to gossip.

Huiyuan said: "Girl, don't think about it day by day, just take your time." In the afternoon, the three girls and the four girls came, didn't they? I still talk so much to you, it can be seen that I treat the girl as my own. ”

Yu Qi said sadly: "When they are their own people, in the south, there are people who are more my own people than them." ”

Sanxi answered sadly: "The girl misses the girl, right?" ”

Yu Qi smiled slightly, looked up at Sanxi, nodded and said: "Zisu is so strong, even if there are many words, she will not cry like the third girl, no matter what she experiences, she can tell you lightly." It's just that when I saw the third girl like this, I just thought of her. ”

Sanxi said: "Yes, if Miss Zisu is here, the girl will be happier." She can talk to the girl a lot, and she has a lot of ideas. ”

Hui Yuan was slightly embarrassed and said, "This Zisu girl is a character." ”

Sanxi said: "No, the appearance and character are the same as our girls, and their temper is harder than our girls." If I had seen our girl so low-minded and angry today, I would have ...... a long time ago."

Yu Qi blamed Sanxi a little, and Sanxi didn't say it anymore.

Huiyuan was interested and relieved: "I heard Sister Xianglian in the second master's room say that the second master is often with those people in the south when he is outside, if he is free, why not ask him to inquire?" ”

Yu Qi smiled: "You are stupid. What does it mean to get to the bottom and dig a hole? Forgot about it? He asked, can we stay here? ”

Huiyuan hurriedly snorted: "Look at me, I didn't think about it thoroughly." I just told the girl to pay attention to everything, and this time she instigated the girl again. ”

Yu Qi said: "You are also concerned about me before you say this." ”

Huiyuan was shy, and said: "That day, Mr. Guan, I heard Xianglian say that the second master sent someone to the south to buy foreign medicine, and asked someone to go to Shu to give it to him." I really can't imagine that the second master is a person with such a temperament. ”

Yu Qi smiled, but didn't say anything. A little later, let Sanxi and Huiyuan go to sleep, and she read by herself with candles.

Outside, the night is getting deeper. The dew is heavy.

No matter how quiet the night is, there is also a noisy corner, such as the corner gate of the backyard of the North Mansion, where the housekeeper leads a group of people in and out, and is giving the key, and the leader of the troubles is back. Where did the leader of the troublemaker know that on the other side, a group of people were plotting things, waiting for him to bump into him and be arrested.
