Chapter 66: The Second Lady

After the sixth lady finished speaking, she looked at the red sleeves and smiled bitterly a few times and continued: "How could he come forward and make it clear about this kind of thing that broke his face?" What's more, as soon as the girl died, our master's behavior was more in line with the second sister-in-law's statement, he didn't get his hands annoyed and angry, and he also "forced" a girl to death. ”

When Red Sleeves heard this, he felt powerless at Master Shen Liu: He is really a superb man.

"Didn't the second aunt bring this matter to the ancestor or Mrs. Tai?" Red Sleeves is very strange, how can I say that this is not a small matter, and this kind of thing has a fatal attraction to the "women" in the mansion: will they not talk about it?

But Red Sleeves had never heard of it.

"Nope." The sixth lady's brows furrowed slightly: "According to the current situation, it is only six, well, seven months, and no one in the mansion knows about it except for our two rooms; No one knows why the girl threw herself into the well - the girl is very popular on weekdays, and she has never been wronged by anyone; And no one knows about her and our father, so everyone thinks she is a stumbling block. ”

She let out a long sigh when she said this: "Although the second sister-in-law was very angry, she finally let our father go, saying that she was also a flesh and blood brother; Although I also suspected that my second sister-in-law had any intentions at the time, but then she didn't do anything, and she really didn't look like a person with any intentions. ”

When the sixth lady said this, she glanced at the red sleeves again and was a little embarrassed: "But, it's obviously her girl who is wrong, but she doesn't admit it; So I have always had a knot in my heart, and I am not so close to my second sister-in-law; And the second sister-in-law is also angry with our room, and she almost doesn't move around with us on weekdays. ”

Red Sleeves heard this and had a question in her heart: The second lady is too good to speak, that is her personal girl; But thinking about it, she was also a little relieved, it was just a girl.

She and the ancients think differently many times: the girl may not be a friend or sister to the wives of the Shen family, right?

But thinking about the second lady's usual behavior, it is not surprising that she would do this: she often said that more things are better than less; If there is anything to do, it will be settled with her, and there will be no more trouble.

No matter how much she suffers, she never complains bitterly; And there have never been many people who have come out for her, she is really an honest person who can't do her duty: she has no children, and the second master is not without concubines, but they have nothing to do in the second room.

She has been silent in the house, and a big reason is because she doesn't have a son, right? Red Sleeves felt a little sad in her heart: the daughter of the second lady is the wife of a marquis, but she still can't let her parents stand up at home.

Red Sleeves thought of his three-year period and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

She cheered up and looked at the sixth lady: "Forget it, it's just that I'm too careful; Auntie also wants to open some, come, let's have breakfast together; How about my aunt taste the food in our yard. ”

There are too many things today, since the matter is clear, the rest is for someone to investigate: of course, Red Sleeves will not ignore this matter because he believes the second lady.

Always have to investigate: it's not that I don't believe in the second lady, it's just that Red Sleeves has been harmed too many times.

The sixth lady was not polite to the red sleeves, and the two of them called the maiden mother-in-law to come in, took down some hot meals and heated them, and the two of them began to talk about the trivial things in the house while eating.

Occasionally, Redsleeves would ask about the two sons of the Sixth Lady; They were talking very speculatively.

Shen Miaoge heard that Red Sleeves had breakfast with the Sixth Lady, thinking that she was asking who the couple was last night, so she didn't come over to disturb, and she used some breakfast indiscriminately, and went to see her mother first, and then came to see Shen Laozu.

Mrs. Shen and Old Ancestor Shen were a little nervous today, and from time to time they would ask the people around them if they were from the army: she heard the sound of horses' hooves.

But it was true that no one came; But Shen Laozu and Mrs. Shen were like this, but Red Sleeves was very worried, she ordered someone to invite the doctor over, and asked Linghe to pay attention.

Red Sleeves came out of the house and let out a sullen breath, clasped his hands together and silently prayed to the heavens that Shen Hou Ye had nothing to do, otherwise the Shen family would not be alone at this time: Mrs. Shen said that she had a son to worry about; But Shen Laozu is already old, and I'm afraid he won't be able to survive.

"God will definitely bless Master Hou, and the sleeves must also pay attention to their own bodies; It's always like this, even iron men get tired. The second lady's voice sounded softly.

Red Sleeves opened his eyes and looked at the second lady a little tiredly: "God bless the Hou Ye and bless the Shen family!" "Bless your father and mother; Red Sleeves added a sentence in his heart.

"Auntie is tired too, isn't she? It's okay with the sleeves, but my aunt should pay attention to her body, and if she is too tired, she will take a rest......"

The second lady smiled softly: "It's okay." I can't help anything else, and with me taking care of you, you can be less ""; Don't think it's okay because you're young, you always have to be concerned – if you hurt your vitality, it's too late to regret it later. ”

She was very serious, and Red Sleeves could hear her hint: if she was not in good health, had no son for three years, or was weak in the future, then her hard life would be a lifetime.

Red sleeves helped the second lady and smiled: "There is an aunt who loves me, it's okay." Auntie, what are you going to do? ”

The second lady patted her red sleeves lightly: "Don't do anything, just see that you don't feel at ease to come out to see you; These days, it's really hard for you. ”

Red Sleeves smiled slightly: "It's hard work, it's also my duty; As long as the ancestor's health can get better, as long as the lady's body can get better, as long as the Hou Ye can come back safely, it is worth being tired. ”

The second lady sighed softly: "Silly child! It's really a piece of filial piety. Today, the ancestor has a fifth brother here, I will guard my sister-in-law for a while, it is better for you to find a free time in your sleeves or squint for a while - even if it is to sleep half a pillar of incense, do you hear? ”

Red Sleeves agreed, and the second lady said two more words to turn around and go back to the house, and after a while she retired to Mrs. Shen's room; But Red Sleeves didn't sleep: where could she sleep?

The sixth lady also knew that the military report would come today, so she finished the matter early and rushed over instead of returning to the room.

The family waited in anxiety, Shen Miaoge now forgot all about last night's incident, just hoping that someone would come from the army, and he was afraid that someone from the army would come.

At noon, everyone in the Shen family didn't eat much; Neither Old Ancestor Shen nor Mrs. Shen had ever used to take a break from eating, and insisted on waiting for the people in the army.

Finally, the military report arrived.

Shen Miaoge saw the people in the army, and his hands trembled slightly: his father, is he alive or dead now?

Even if it is an eight-hundred-mile rush from the border pass to Beijing, it will take ** days to travel day and night: when they learned that Shen Houye was injured and fainted, Shen Houye had been dizzy for ** days at that time.

Therefore, when he saw the man in the army now, he felt a little afraid in his heart: he was really afraid to hear and see the news of his father's misfortune.

The person who came was not the one who delivered the letter in the army, but the person who went to the military headquarters; The current person was sent by the Ministry of War.

"Little Hou Ye, Hou Ye's condition is some, some bad, and he is still in a coma." The person who came said that these words were very difficult: "Now the border war is also a little tight. ”

Shen Miaoge's body shook slightly: "It's hard for you to deliver the letter, come, serve tea in the hall to quench your thirst; Then he said to the chief steward, Laiwang, "Take some silver, and it should be the money for wine." It's hard work, it's expensive, it's a trip. ”

The messenger of the military department was stunned: he came to report this kind of news, thinking that there would be no silver reward; Hurriedly thanked him at the moment, and pushed him to where he was willing to enter the hall? At that moment, he bowed down and retreated, but was pulled by Laiwang to get the silver.

Shen Miaoge closed his eyes, Shen Houye's voice and smile seemed to appear in front of him, and as soon as he felt a pain in his heart, the blood turned into tears and was about to gush out; He raised his head and opened his eyes, and "forced" the tears back: now was not the time for him to shed tears.

He wanted to reassure his great-grandmother and mother, and not let them be stimulated in the slightest.

A small hand rested lightly on his arm, and although the visitor did not speak, he knew that it was Red Sleeves.

"I'm fine." His voice was a little hoarse.

"I know, for the sake of the Shen family, you can't have anything to do, and you can't have tears." Red Sleeves looked up at him: "No matter what, I will always be by your side." ”

Shen Miaoge did not speak, nor did she react; After a long while, he said, "Let's go, we can't let our ancestors and mothers wait too long, otherwise they will be suspicious." ”

Laiwang had already come over at this time, and he had a military report in his hand: it was forged.

Red Sleeves sighed lightly and asked Laiwang to put away the forged military newspaper: "It's best not to let the old ancestor and mother read the military newspaper carefully, otherwise they will definitely see that something is wrong; When the time comes, I'm afraid things will get worse. ”

Shen Miaoge nodded and walked towards the backyard with Red Sleeves.

When Mrs. Shen heard Shen Miaoge's words, and after taking a closer look at Shen Miaoge and Red Sleeves, she felt that the world was spinning; But she held on to her body and didn't let herself fall: "Zhi'er Mo Ruomu." Qi'er, you better tell the truth about your father's injury, mother, you can stand it. ”

As soon as Shen Miaoge wanted to speak, Red Sleeves had already preemptively opened his mouth to tell the truth, and asked Laiwang to take out the real military report and show it to Mrs. Shen.

Mrs. Shen breathed a sigh of relief after reading it: at least, not the worst news; But it is also an indisputable fact that she is more worried and anxious; She took a deep breath: "Qi'er, you are smiling too reluctantly, I'm afraid you won't be able to hide it from your ancestors." ”

"I'm going to see the ancestor with you right now, with me here, I will definitely be able to deceive for a while."

Red Sleeves looked at Mrs. Shen, her eyes couldn't help but redden, but she didn't say anything, and stepped forward to help Mrs. Shen up.

The second lady had not spoken all this time, her head slightly bowed with a worried expression; Seeing Mrs. Shen get up, she rushed up to support Mrs. Shen with Red Sleeves and gently comforted Mrs. Shen.

The red-sleeved eyebrows couldn't help frowning slightly: At this time, not leaving Shen Houye is not necessarily a comfort for Mrs. Shen; The second aunt is really a mistake.

If Mrs. Shen can't stand it at this time, something happens, Shen Ancestor can't hide it at all, and then the Shen family will really collapse half of the sky! Remember the permanent address of Q Pig Literature Station: for easy reading next time!
