Chapter Two Hundred and Nine: Death!
At the end of July, the heat of the summer gradually subsided, and it was still hot under the sun during the day, but a thin quilt was no longer enough at night. The same as the heat is the hot and cold mood of the Chen family, compared to Chen Lan's beautiful birthday, Chen Yun's birthday, which was only a few days apart, passed quietly, but Chen Xi's marriage was still undecided.
After all, in a hurry, looking for a better candidate than Luo Xu, the prince of Weiguo, is almost the most difficult thing in the world. Aunt Luo, the family that Chen Ying fancies, was almost dissatisfied, and several households that Aunt Luo fancied were reprimanded by Chen Ying. As a result, this was the most harmonious couple in Yunnan, but now it is awkward. Chen Xi was not a person on both sides of the house, so he simply let go of his hand in the end, and he had more leisure time to deal with housework and get along with the two brothers.
Chen Xi's marriage is unresolved, but Chen Bing's marriage is almost ready. Due to the urgency of the Runing Bo Mansion, the first series of regulations were completed in a few days, and the dowry was given on this day. Mrs. Ma didn't know that just a few days ago, Chen Bing ran to demonstrate in front of Chen Lan, pinched the list and happily read it in front of Zhu, but the old lady had no other expression except a smile, so she had to turn around. As soon as she left, Zhu smiled at Zheng's mother.
She was carried away by the word "Shizi", and the dowry gift sent by the Runing Bo Mansion didn't know how many years it was old goods piled up in the warehouse, and she was still a treasure...... Even the geese are carved out of wood, where does it look like a noble family? β
"What the old lady said is, why is Runing Bofu in a hurry to get hired now, and he will marry in September, it is nothing more than that the year is approaching, and the account at the end of the year should be settled. At present, all kinds of activities such as border trade and sea trade are being rectified, and Hugh said that the family business of Runing Bofu is not abundant, even like our Yangning Hou Mansion, this year will inevitably have a deficit and famine, so he is counting on this dowry. β
As soon as the words fell, I only heard the voices of Heling and Mo Xiang saying hello outside. Hearing that Chen Lan was coming, Zhu gestured to Zheng's mother, and when they entered the house, she asked with a smile: "Shouldn't you be in charge of affairs in the Water Mirror Hall with the five girls at this hour?" β
"Old lady, someone handed in the post on the door, and the payment was ...... It's Kim Congyu. β
"Jin Congyu? Dongchang Hou Shizi...... No, it's Jin Liang's eldest son? Zhu Shi changed color all of a sudden, and then said sharply, "His father has already been punished, and their whole family is registered in Liaodong, what are they doing at this time, are they all eating dry rice at the door, these people should be driven away immediately."
Chen Lan hadn't seen Zhu lose such a temper for a long time, and after being stunned for a while, he hurriedly poured a glass of water and sat down beside Zhu, and coaxed her to drink some more, and then persuaded her: "If the old lady doesn't see it, she won't see it, don't be angry, I'll go to the door and give an order...... However, this post can be handed in, I asked someone to ask, and it is a lot of dots on the door. The Jin family is now completely defeated, all the way to Liaodong, there are several female dependents in the family, and they may not be able to survive on the road, I am afraid that after this cost, I am afraid that it will be even more embarrassing, and other people's families must be more down. β
The Zhu family used to have a good relationship with the wife of the Marquis of Dongchang, and the two families even almost agreed to a marriage, but once the world was turned upside down, what Dongchang Marquis Jin Liang did almost made the other three families overturn in a gutter, and she was extremely angry and resentful. Thinking that when she had a secret conversation with the county lord of Yixing in the Korean Mansion that day, the county lord of Yixing asked her to persuade the Korean duchess not to set foot in a few industries.
"You narrowly escaped your life at the beginning, it was all the fault of that family, and you still worry about these little things, it's too much...... That's it, send someone out to send him away, and send some Cheng Yi is over."
Chen Lan smiled bitterly when he heard this, thinking to himself where he was generous, but he was not used to being involved in the Nine Clans by one person in this year. Besides, spending the only remaining family funds in exchange for the cold expulsion of the Yangning Hou Mansion might as well turn people away from the door at the beginning, which may not cause more trouble. Therefore, since Zhu opened her mouth like this, she didn't say more, and went out of the house after a bow, and when she arrived in the courtyard, she called Zhang's mother over, and told Zhu's words again, and didn't forget to add two sentences at the end.
"Cheng Yi went to the tent to withdraw, in addition, the person on the door also asked his mother to warn him well, and his eyes will be brighter in the future, some money is not so easy to take, and these deeds will not be able to be eliminated for a while, but they are not allowed to cause trouble to the house for a while, so he ordered Steward Liu in the front yard to reform them for a month."
This is the Jin family's benevolence and righteousness, but the punishment on the door is not severe, so Zhang's mother changed color and agreed more respectfully. She was about to leave, when she saw Lai's mother hurriedly enter the courtyard from the side of the hall, her front was wet, and she stumbled a little when she walked. When she got closer, Lai's mother seemed to have just seen Chen Lan and Zhang's mother standing at the door of the main room, and she hurriedly stopped and smiled and saluted, but a smell of wine rushed out of her mouth on her body.
Seeing this, Chen Lan asked lightly, "Where did Mother Lai go?" β
"Hehe, it just so happened that Zi Ningju's mother asked me to ask about something, and she couldn't help but stay, so I drank two cups."
Although Lai's mother spoke neatly, her flushed face and one wine burp after another betrayed her bottom lineβnaturally, it was more than two cups. So, Chen Lan just nodded casually and ordered the little girl to help her to rest, but she asked Zhang's mother to go out with her, and when she arrived outside the hall, she stopped.
Lai's mother is not young, and Zhang's mother will persuade her to drink less in the future. The two sisters of the old lady, Green Calyx and Yushao, are almost at the age of matching, Heling and Mo Xiang are new to the world after all, Zheng's mother alone may not be busy, and Zhang's mother also please bother, these trivial matters seem small, but they are not stubborn. β
Mother Zhang and Mother Lai have always been similar identities, and they know best what hobbies they have with each other on weekdays, but at this time, seeing Chen Lan's clear and cold eyes, she was stunned for a while before she said: "What the third lady said is that the little one has been written down." β
When Zhang's mother left in a hurry, Hongluo, who had just followed behind, took two steps forward and asked in a low voice, "Does Miss want to send Lai's mother away?" β
"I like to take care of things, I am partial and greedy, there is no one on my mouth, the last time Mrs. Runingbo came to ask for marriage, she leaked out, and the second sister came to me to make a fuss, even so, the things of the past few days may be her bad mouth, and now I wish my mother to invite her to drink immediately, what is the use of such a person to keep? Retire as soon as possible, and also have the reputation of the old lady who pities the old and cherishes the poor, so that there will be no trouble in the future."
Hongluo was accustomed to seeing Chen Lan's grace and power, so he was naturally convinced at this time. The master and servant returned to the Water Mirror Hall, and the servants and wives in charge had already dispersed, only Chen Xi was waiting for Chen Lan. The two sisters said a few words, and the topic naturally turned to the Dongchang Hou family, and when it came to Jin Zhi and Jin Ming, the two of them were silent unconsciously.
They don't have a good impression of the pair of arrogant and willful sisters, but Liaodong is bitter and cold, and they are the daughters of sinners.
How Zhang's mother went to the front to send the people, Chen Lan soon heard about it. This one did more than she ordered, and directly chased back all the silver money on the door of Jin Congyouda and returned it to him, and then took out eighty taels of silver from the tent to count it as Cheng Yi, and then politely sent the person away. When Jin Congyou left, he happened to meet the next person sent by the Runing Bo Mansion to determine the marriage schedule. used to be a beautiful son, but when he left this time, he was still depressed and gloomy.
Although he was sympathetic for a while, but the heart was forgetful, whether it was Chen Lan or Zhu's family or Zhang's mother and everyone on the door, they soon forgot about the former Dongchang Marquis Jin Congyou's door, until the morning of the first day of August, a news suddenly spread into the Yangning Marquis Mansion, which was preparing to marry Chen Xi on the tenth day of the first month.
The family members of the former Dongchang Marquis Jin Liang, the day before they went on the road, from his wife Li to his son Jin Congyou Jin Congjia, and his two daughters Jin Zhi and Jin Ming, all of them hanged themselves in the rented house where they lived
"Amitabha"
Even the Zhu family, who hated the Dongchang Marquis's family, couldn't help but twist the Buddha beads and recited a long section of "The Mantra of Death", and when he opened his eyes, he recited the Buddha name again, and then sighed long, but he didn't say anything. And Chen Lan, who was standing on the side, had a pale face, and his heart seemed to be overturned, and countless thoughts were flipped up and down.
Five lives...... If it weren't for the escort officer who felt that something was wrong and reported to his boss and kicked the door open and entered, maybe it would be a long time before the five corpses were discovered, and most people in the court would feel that they deserved it, but I am afraid that many people would feel sad that the rabbit died and the fox died, as for the people...... I'm afraid that there will be a lot of discussions
Zhu rubbed his temples tiredly, and then said to Zheng's mother, "You go to Huguo Temple to put on a pillar of incense." β
After Zheng's mother left, Zhu looked at Chen Lan and said: "Listening to the news that came, it was hanged last night, and it has nothing to do with our family. The emperor is bound to be furious. But the more intense the time, the more those inconsistencies will be. β
Chen Lan felt the same way in his heart, but when he thought of the courage of that family to commit suicide, he still couldn't help but shudder. Although she has deeply realized the fragility of human life, at this moment, she truly understands what it means that human life is as humble as an ant. When the Marquis of Dongchang connived at his subordinates to slaughter the border guards and force the merchants to death in various places, he regarded others as ants; But he himself died in the East Fourth Archway, and now his family has committed suicide together, isn't it no different from ants?
