Chapter Twenty-Nine: Unintentional Surprise
Zhuang Qi came out of Zhuang Hu's house and came to Nanfu to give gifts, and Zhuang Ling and Su Yuan, who were following behind him, disappeared at some point. When she arrived in Nanfu, she saw that Aunt Mi and the others were not in the house, so she left her gifts and left.
Out of Nanfu, leading to the Zhongfu trail, I want to go back to Zhongfu, at the corner of the corridor of the trail, I saw a few girls talking about the words, which roughly means talking about Zhuang Qi. So, Zhuang Qi deliberately put down his steps.
I only heard a woman in blue say: "It's not." ”
The girl in red said: "I also think it's strange, it's really true that you say that." ”
Another woman in black snorted: "This girl is of unknown origin, she is here to harm Dongfu." If you want me to say, the old lady shouldn't ......."
The girl in green signaled to whisper and said, "Mrs. Dongfu is not interested in hearing this, and she will not believe it." ”
The woman in black said: "Believe it or not, it's hard to believe it, but they all say that Miss Qi is a disaster star who entered the mansion." First is the uncle, and then the second and third masters. ”
The girl in red said: "The second master and the third master treat people well, you curse people." ”
The woman in blue said: "The number of people who hurt is indefinite, and it may be the eldest girl and the second girl." The second wife also said behind her back, for fear that it would affect the second and third girls in her Beifu......"
The yellow-clothed girl who was standing and listening stomped her foot and said, "The old lady still has to assign someone to serve Miss Qi, so it's better not to assign me." ”
The mother-in-law and girls were still chewing their tongues, and at this moment Sanxi couldn't listen to it, walked out of the corner, and coughed a few times under the porch. When those people heard this, they all turned their heads to look, and when they saw that it was Zhuang Qi and the others, they were all distracted.
Huiyuan was afraid that Zhuang Qi would be too careful, so he said: "Girl, what others say is gossip. ”
Yu Qi didn't say anything, clutched his handkerchief tightly, but with a faint smile on his face, he walked forward.
Where did Sanxi swallow this kind of anger, and said with a crossed waist and kicked: "There are many people who don't have a tongue, and they are not afraid of retribution for saying such things." Hurry up Ming'er, I will come to your master and sue you, and cut off the long tongues of you sluts and thieves. ”
Yu Qi didn't stop Sanxi, and let her mess around a few words. In the end, it was still Huiyuan who took away the three joys. The three of them returned to Zhongfu unhappily, and they were going to return to Jinghuaxie, passing by the outer courtyard of Shouzhongju, Zhuang Qi stopped, thought for half a minute, and turned to go in.
Huiyuan knew that Zhuang Qi was angry, and he probably wanted to go in and tell him.
When Zhuang Qi entered the house, he saw that it was quiet, and the old lady was lying on the bed napping. Zhu'er and the two girls put the curtain. Seeing Zhuang Qi coming in, Zhu'er made a gesture to be quieter. After the service was finished, Zhu'er crept out.
Zhu'er said: "The old lady just lay down. ”
Zhuang Qi smiled faintly, loosened the tightly clenched handkerchief, and said, "Come and see, see if the old lady is better." Then I'll go back to my room first. ”
Zhu'er saw Zhuang Qi's preoccupation and guessed that there was something to say, so she chased it out and asked, "Is there something wrong with the girl?" ”
Zhuang Qi paused slightly, and then said, "No." ”
Out of Shouzhongju, Yu Qi sat under the pine and cypress trees in the outer courtyard and did not leave. Sanxi and Huiyuan pushed each other, muttering who stepped forward to comfort the girl. I know in my heart that their girls have been greatly wronged, and they have asked people to chew their tongues for no reason, and they have thrown bad shoes indiscriminately by grabbing the shadow of the wind and claws. Not to mention this kind of gossip, the girl herself is not happy to listen, and even the girl is angry.
Sanxi is still poisonous to outsiders, and he doesn't know how to persuade his own girl at this time. She also knew that Huiyuan was the best at reasoning on weekdays, so she pushed Huiyuan to speak.
Zhuang Qi looked at Sanxi and Huiyuan, and Chechenono was relieved, and responded: "This tree has a history, it is green all year round, and it will not fall. It has its own reason for living. ”
Huiyuan and Sanxi looked at each other, stood stunned, and did not speak.
Zhuang Qi said: "This tree can withstand frost and snow, wind and rain, and it must be different from the delicate flowers in the flower garden." You see, isn't it? ”
Look up at the leaves of the tree, verdant and abnormal, can be green juice, especially the breeze blows, bounced, very vibrant.
Sanxi walked up and said, "If the girl says yes, we will say yes, and the girl says that this tree is a cattail grass, and we should be a thatched house." ”
When Zhuang Qi heard this, he actually laughed out loud.
At this time, a group of people outside the courtyard passed by in a panic, Zhuang Qi, Sanxi, Huiyuan and others looked at each other, and Huiyuan, who was standing a little farther away, was curious, and turned around and walked out to take a look.
Sanxi said: "I don't know what happened again." "Therefore go out and see.
Zhuang Qi said: "It has nothing to do with us. ”
Sanxicai's footsteps turned back, and after waiting for a while, Huiyuan trotted and said, "Oh no, the uncle is making trouble outside the house!" People are coming in. ”
When Zhuang Qi heard this, he slowly stood up, and couldn't help but go out to take a look.
Along the atrium avenue of Zhongfu, pass through the double instrument gate, and then pass a few courtyard gates, and then go to the outer gate near the front. I happened to see a few servants hanging their hands and guarding the door, Zhuang Ji was dressed in a happy dress, his heels were about to cross the threshold, scolding in his mouth, and outside the gate behind him, a large sedan chair of eight people was parked.
Zhuang Ji was sweating profusely, and said to the servants standing on the side: "I will show you today, and I will bring people back." ”
At this moment, the girl helped the Qin family, the county lord, the Cao family, Aunt Mi, Aunt Xi, Fengxian and so on; Zhuang Ying and Su Yuan were in front, and the other girls followed behind the wives, making a lot of noise.
Seeing Zhuang Hu's arrogance, Zhuang Hu stood in front of the Qin clan and shouted: "Big brother, you can come back, but people can't bring it back." ”
Zhuang Ji saw everyone and sneered: "Big sister, I don't like to hear what you say. What kind of business are you in charge of? This is a matter of our house. ”
Yes, Zhuang Hu is already married to someone else, and she shouldn't have to worry about the affairs in this Zhuang mansion. These words really hurt her, so she didn't dare to speak out again, only her eyes were red, and tears fell quickly. When Zhuang Yu saw it, he came over and grabbed Zhuang Hu to comfort him.
Qin pushed away the girl who was supporting her, pointed at Zhuang and said, "Bastard! Without your eldest sister's hard work over the years, have you a good life? He pointed to the doorman and said, "Blast me out." ”
When the servant got the word, he went to pull Zhuang Wei with fake hands and feet, and wanted to drive him out. Where is Zhuang Ji willing to follow, pushing and shoving with the doormen, but he doesn't go out, and he wants to step straight to the Qin family.
The county lord saw that this situation was not good-looking, so he stepped forward and grabbed Zhuang Ji and said, "What are you going to do?" ”
Zhuang Ji thought that the county lord would pull him out and throw her away, but the county lord's center of gravity was unstable and he was pushed to the ground. Seeing this scene, everyone was frightened and went to help the county lord.
Qin raised his hand and said to the servant: "Tie up, tie up!" ”
The county lord fell a lot, and the Qin family's thinking had to be calmed down by some powerful means, so that he could give an explanation to the county lord; He rolled up his sleeves, walked over, and twisted Zhuang Ji with his backhand, trying to catch him and not move. Unexpectedly, Qin's age and limited limb strength, and because he was his own son, his strength was only three or four points, so Zhuang even didn't recognize his six relatives, hugged Qin's family, and pushed her away heavily.
Qin Shi couldn't stand steadily, and as soon as his feet stumbled, the person fell down, and his head hit the edge of the potted pot, and the blood immediately poured out.
Zhuang Hu was just sad, and at this moment, he didn't care about having a face, so he went to help the Qin family first, and then turned his head to Zhuang Hu and said, "Big brother, do you still have a wife in your eyes!" ”
Zhuang Ji smiled: "The people in the house can't stop it, don't talk about you outside." When you talk nonsense? He beckoned outward: "Carry in." ”
Qin endured the pain, got up from the ground, and flew towards Zhuang Ji with one foot, but Zhuang Ji reached out to catch her legs and feet. Zhuang Hu was afraid that Zhuang Hu would break her wife's leg with force, so he rushed over and pushed Zhuang Xu.
Zhuang Hu spread his hand, lifted his robe, and kicked Zhuang Hu who rushed over coldly. Zhuang Hu was originally a martial artist, but at this moment, because he was a member of the family, he didn't pay attention to it, and he kicked his leg just right, and the person fell in front of the Qin family.
It's in chaos.
Zhuang Yuyang begged Su Yuan to stop it, but Su Yuan knew that he was an outsider and it was not easy to manage, so he said, "Why don't you call the old lady." ”
Hearing this, Zhuang Yu called Zhuang Hu's girl Dao Feng and said, "Don't go back to the old lady yet." ”
Dao Feng looked reckless, and retreated to return to the old lady.
Dao Feng left, and Zhuang Ji followed: "I'm going to decorate the new house today, you can't stop it!" ”
Seeing that the sedan chair outside was about to be carried in, the Qin family and Zhuang Hu and the others, no one could count them, and they all surrounded them. Zhuang Ji is playful, messing around, kicking and messing, and the posture is fierce, and many people can't help it.
Zhuang Yu was in a hurry, so he rushed over to pull Zhuang Ji away, but Zhuang Ji swept with a punch and landed on Zhuang Yu's face.
Zhuang Jue was punched, his eyes were full of stars, his tinnitus was endless, he fell to the ground, and he couldn't get up. The county lord took a breath and saw Zhuang Ying fall to the ground, and rushed over to hug Zhuang Ying regardless of the pain on his body.
Zhuang Qi watched from afar, he was really worried, not to mention that he was not from the Zhengfu, even if he was a girl from the Zhengfu, he couldn't speak at the moment, just look at what happened to Zhuang Hu just now, the other sisters were gossiping on the side, and they couldn't say a word after all.
Zhuang Qi took a closer look, and when he saw Zhuang Jue being beaten, he really sweated for him.
There, Zhuang Ji said even more cruelly, saying: "It's not a family, it's not a family!" The new sister is not a relative, but she is something, and she has laid out the pomp. I'll pick up some people and you'll stop them all. Whoever stops me is fighting with whom. ”
Qin was helpless, and beat his chest and said, "Your new sister is stronger than your prostitute!" ”
No one dares to mention this, everyone knows that Uncle Zhuang forced his aunt and grandmother to death, scattered a lot of family wealth, and wanted to marry a brothel girl. Now, it's his mother.
When Zhuang Qi heard this, he was shocked, and his heart was full of pain, in the end, he was no different from those prostitutes outside. So thinking that he had just heard those gossip, Zhuang Qi lost his mind and turned his head to leave.
Suddenly, the old lady came and shouted, "It's the opposite, it's the opposite." ”
Zhuang Qi turned around again and saw that the old lady was trembling and rushed to the place with the help of Zhu'er Mei'er. When Zhuang Ji saw the old lady arrive, she was a little timid, but she still said, "I'...... I'm just going to marry back. ”
The old lady said, "I'm dead, and you carry me over from my corpse." He shouted to everyone: "What are you doing in a daze, so many people can't stop it!" Hu'er, take the rope and tie it up. Give him dozens of big boards. Bang out! ”
Seeing that the old lady had spoken, Zhuang Hu took the rope from Daofeng, jumped over, and tied Zhuang Hu in three or two strokes.
The old lady said angrily: "Carry it to the foot board of the gate, and you are not allowed to spare it." ”
The servants carried the tightly bound Zhuang Ji to the corner gate and put it down, not daring to move.
Seeing this, the old lady was angry and said, "Don't dare to do it? Don't do any errands! ”
After listening, Qin took the lead in picking up the board and hit Zhuang Ji on the thigh a few times, but at the end he couldn't do it, so he threw the board to the servant, who took the board and stepped forward, pretending to hit it a few times.
The old lady was not satisfied, and said, "The strength is light, I will punish you together!" ”
When the servants saw that the old lady was angry, they beat them hard. Zhuang Wei was beaten and screamed, the Qin family couldn't bear to look at it, don't start crying to yourself, the county lord saw that the Qin family was distressed, and deliberately stepped forward to intercede with the old lady: "Old lady, if you beat again, you will die." ”
The old lady snorted and said, "It's too arrogant to insult the door!" Beat! Hit hard! Locked up when you're done! Then he instructed: "Keep the door closed, and not a dog or a fly will be allowed to enter or leave." ”
After the old lady finished speaking, she turned her head and left, no one persuaded anyone to say that she would not manage, and the aftersound behind her was the sound of Zhuang Xuan's ghost crying wolf.
Zhuang Ying and Fengxian supported the county lord, Aunt Qi and Aunt Xi supported the Qin family to follow, and the others also followed.
When the servants saw that everyone was gone, they hurriedly helped Zhuang Ji up.
Yu Qi watched the people in the Zhuang Mansion leave angrily, and no one noticed her, so she felt bored, so she turned around and left. Sanxi and Huiyuan were silent for a while, and followed behind. The three of them didn't return to the mirror, they were all upset and walked casually, and went to the back garden of the mansion to relax.
Next to a rockery, Hui Yuan consciously took out a handkerchief to clean the stone bench and let Zhuang Qi sit down and rest.
Huiyuan was relieved: "I have always waited for the Prime Minister's house, how can there be anything pure. The girl doesn't have to worry about that. ”
Zhuang Qi said: "The snow in front of each other's doors, how can there be a reason to worry about the sky for others." ”
Huiyuan smiled: "That's because I'm too careful." ”
Sanxi said: "It should be so troublesome, it's good for Uncle Ji to make the family dog restless." They don't have time to chew on the root of their tongues. ”
Huiyuan smiled and ignored it. Zhuang Qi said: "You talk a little more, no different from those who chew the root of your tongue." ”
Sanxi said: "The girl wants to blame me, I really hope that way." It's bullying us too much. ”
Zhuang Qi was about to reprimand Sanxi when he suddenly heard Zhuang Yu's voice from the other side of the rockery.
I only heard Zhuang Yu say: "Big sister, wait for me." ”
It turned out that Zhuang Ji made a fuss, and everyone sent the old lady back to Zhongfu, and the old lady was angry that no one was left behind, and they all drove out. Everyone dispersed and returned to the house without mentioning it, Zhuang Hu felt uncomfortable because of being beaten and scolded by Zhuang Xu, and Dongfu did not return, so he came out to cry for a while. Zhuang Yu was careful, chased out, and chased here at this moment.
Zhuang Yu took Zhuang Hu's hand and said, "Big sister, big brother is really angry today, our wife and third brother were pushed and kicked, not to mention, you see that the eldest wife was also beaten by him." hurt you with such heavy words, and clearly treat you as someone outside the house! I feel aggrieved when I think about it. I told you the perfect plan last time, so I'll tell you now. ”
Zhuang Hu knew that her fifth sister was different from others, she was high-spirited and arrogant, and she really protected her. Hearing these words, I was very moved, and tears flowed again.
Zhuang Yu said: "Mother-in-law's mother-in-law is a joke." What are you afraid of! I don't believe it, what else can the big brother do to me. ”
Zhuang Hu soothed his emotions and said slowly: "What is my sister's perfect strategy?" ”
Zhuang Yu said: "Since the eldest brother is not at peace for a prostitute and an outsider. Then why not send that shameless prostitute away. ”
Zhuang Hu was puzzled and said, "How to send it?" He worried again: "Big brother knows, it's not that he wants to resent you and me." ”
Zhuang Yu said: "Naturally, we can't do such a thing, we just have to do it thoroughly, and let him thank the two of us." My thoughts are like this......"
Zhuang Yu bowed his head and said a few words at the root of Zhuang Hu's ear, Zhuang Hu listened to it and said in shock: "Absolutely not!" ”
Zhuang Yu said angrily: "When did my sister twist and pinch." ”
Zhuang Hu persuaded: "Sister, human life is at stake, and the old lady, the wife will blame it if she knows it." ”
Zhuang Yu's eyes showed anger, his arrogance soared, and he said, "Naturally, I can't let my wife and the old lady know." ”
Zhuang Yu whispered to Zhuang Huergen again.
Behind the rockery, Yu Qi and Sanxi and Huiyuan heard it, and the three of them probed out slightly, and saw Zhuang Hu and Zhuang Yu talking about other small words in their ears, and when they heard that it was about human life, Zhuang Qi's hand on the rockery folded and fell into the gravel on the rockery.
An unexpected sound disturbed Zhuang Hu and Zhuang Yu who were strategizing, and the two looked around and saw no one.
Zhuang Qi was afraid that the two would be embarrassed when they turned around to find them, so he took the initiative to walk out of the rockery, and took Sanxi to talk and laugh.
Walking out of the rockery, Zhuang Qi smiled at each other and said to Zhuang Hu and Zhuang Yu: "Big sister, why is the fifth sister here?" Can you see the third brother? ”
Zhuang Yu and Zhuang Hu glanced at each other, full of worry.
Yu Qi pulled Sanxi and called behind him: "Huiyuan, hurry up, he may be cheating, don't look for it over there." Come over here. It means that the three of them are far away, not in front of them, so as to dispel the suspicion of eavesdropping.
Huiyuan panted, took out a handkerchief and pretended to wipe her sweat, and said coquettishly: "In a blink of an eye, the girl is gone." ”
Zhuang Hu listened to this, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "The third brother just came out of the old lady, why did he come here?" ”
Zhuang Qi was clever and said with a smile: "Then I was wrong." I'll look for it again, and the parrot he gave me has spoken, and I'll have to tell him to go. ”
Saying that, Zhuang Qi pulled Sanxi away in a grin-and-laugh manner, and Huiyuan cushioned, bowed deeply to Zhuang Hu and Zhuang Yu, and followed.
Seeing Zhuang Qi's master and servant leave, Zhuang Yu said to Zhuang Hu suspiciously: "Big sister, will Sister Qi hear it?" ”
Zhuang Ju looked uneasy, but he said cruelly, and he didn't want Zhuang Hu to underestimate her courage because of this, so he repeatedly washed and said, but Zhuang Hu listened a little bit. The two of them planned to do a big thing for the house, so that people could admire and respect them in the future.
Zhuang Qi didn't know about this, he only knew that Zhuang Hu and Zhuang Yu's conspiracy might be related to his life, and he didn't know anything else. Zhuang Wei was beaten, so he was locked up in the house, put under house arrest, and told every day that the earth should not be spiritual.
When the time was ripe, Zhuang Hu and Zhuang Yu quietly dispatched together with Dao Feng Jianqiu to rush to the old mansion on the south side of the city, which caused many incidents in the future. There is a saying: if people don't know, they can't do it unless they do.
