Chapter 8: The General's Intercession

"How did Mama Kim die?" Wen Yukou was not surprised to hear the news of Mama Jin's death. Mama Gui said: "It seems that she can't stand the punishment, and she doesn't want to admit her guilt, so she bit her tongue and committed suicide." Because Mrs. Xie was also in the torture room, she told me something, and I heard that Mrs. Dou secretly prepared to quietly transport the bodies of Mama Jin and Shuang'er out of the palace in order not to alarm the old lady, and the people in their family sent a sum of silver, and it was over. ”

"Shuang'er is bent on death, but Mama Jin is forced to die nine times out of ten, but she didn't expect that she would die without my hands, she herself would end up in such a tragic end, or her own master's design."

"Miss, the ID card is gone, but we still can't bear it. Since Mrs. Dou wants to quietly calm things down, let's beat a gong and drum for her and catch her off guard. ”

"No, my father has just come back, and if the house makes a big fuss about this matter, I'm worried that my father will have a headache." Wen Yukou thought of his father, his father was mighty and brave, and he fought bravely on the battlefield to protect his family and defend the country, but when he returned to the mansion, he should not take these intriguing things to bother him.

"Miss......" Although Wen Yukouzhi said a word, Mama Gui fully understood her mood, and her eyes became gentle for a while, kind and sad. No matter how strong and hard-hearted the eldest lady is, in fact, her heart has not changed, from before to now, when she mentions her father, she will show a proud look...... It's a pity that the general doesn't like her, no matter how much she does, she can't get the favor of the general...... I can't ask for it, one of the seven great sufferings in the world, and it is also the most tormenting of the eldest lady.

"Alright, let this matter pass. Also, I'll give another penny to Shuang'er, but not to her gambler father, you quietly give it to her mother and her sister. Although her mother was cowardly, it was time to resist in order to save the remaining two children. If she still has soft ears and is cheated out of money by the gambler, what about the little girl? Shuang'er once told me that her little sister is the most sensible person in the family, and she will always find a way to get porridge and water when the family is hungry and screaming...... If you have a heart, the money is in her hands, I can rest assured. ”

"Miss, it's hard for you to think so thoroughly."

"Shuang'er is not bad by nature, but like me, he can't help himself. Without her family, how could she have died? Besides, the wise people will be favored by the heavens, and Shuang'er died miserably, and I can't watch her sister enter the fire pit too. Wen Yukou lowered her head and teased the magnolia petals, smelling the faint fragrance, and her heart was like a boat in the quiet sea.

At the family banquet in the evening, Wen Yukou saw her father and took her sisters to say goodbye, but General Wen's gaze directly passed over her and fell on the three daughters and four daughters, Wen Yan smiled and asked them to sit beside her. Wen Yushang was the youngest and the most coquettish, so she flew over at once, and when Wen Yuzhi walked by Wen Yukou's side, her footsteps paused, and she didn't say anything, and sat down beside General Wen.

The subordinates looked at Wen Yukou, who was standing there alone, and whispered, Xiahou Shenxiao was also in the banquet, knowing that Wen Yukou had suffered injustice, but General Wen was an old ginger after all, and he was blocked back with a word. Or the old lady didn't look right, so she called Wen Yukou to her side and added a seat.

The meal barely went well, and when drinking tea, General Wen took Xiahou Shenxiao away under the pretext of the matter of the concubine's relatives, and then bowed his head and spoke beside the old lady. Wen Chengying saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he quietly raised his hand and beckoned to his sister: "Sister, come here." ”

Wen Yukou felt uncomfortable, walked over, was pulled by him and sat beside her, and then smiled and stuffed something in her hand. Wen Yukou was surprised, and when she reached out, she saw that it was two black grains with a sweet fragrance, made into cute little balls, just one in one bite. Wen Chengying smiled and motioned for her to eat: "Just now you only ate two mouthfuls of osmanthus fish and drank a little soup, you must not have eaten enough, this is a good thing I got from my classmates, what is it called buckwheat chestnut, I heard that eating a little can quench hunger, and even better is that the entrance is bitter, the aftertaste is sweet, and it is extremely interesting." ”

"Chengying, sister is not hungry, you better keep it for yourself." Wen Yukou stuffed things back into Wen Chengying's hands. Wen Chengying took it, looked at her sister with both eyes, and was pitiful: "Then you must tell me when you are hungry." ”

"Hmm." Wen Yukou touched his head, and the sister and brother looked at each other and smiled.

General Wen just looked up, just saw this scene, his face immediately sank, and he ordered Cheng Ying to go back. Wen Chengying happily agreed: "Yes." Then he turned around: "Sister, I'll send you back." ”

"She stays, you go first." General Wen's face was majestic and he said coldly.

The sisters and brothers exchanged a look with each other, one said no, and the other said that I can deal with it if you go first, but in the end, Wen Chengying still lost to Wen Yukou, and left sullenly and worried.

Send Wen Chengying away, and Wen Yukou knew that something was coming.

Wen Yushang and Wen Yuzhi bit their ears: "My father told me that the eldest sister designed to frame Mrs. Dou and the second sister, and she was vicious, and she dared to pretend to be calm and eat together, he was very angry." ”

Wen Yuzhi didn't know what was wrong with his ears recently, he was always unclear when he was obedient, he patted his ears with his hand, and said softly: "Fourth sister, what did you say?" I can't hear it, be louder. ”

Wen Yushang said it again, Wen Yuzhi still couldn't hear it, Wen Yushang was originally a straightforward person, but now he said it louder, and the people around him, including Wen Yukou, all heard it. By the time Wen Yushang found out that something was wrong, it was too late to take it back.

"Third sister, it's all your fault, I said it so loudly, everyone heard it, the eldest sister won't let me go, and my father will blame me!" Wen Yushang was nervous in her heart, and couldn't help but complain about Wen Yuzhi.

Wen Yuzhi lowered his head and apologized gently and patiently: "I'm sorry, fourth sister, it's all my fault." ”

As he spoke, he looked up at Wen Yukou and General Wen, and a malicious smile flashed in his eyes. Wen Yukou noticed that her eyes were as quick as lightning, Wen Yuzhi didn't dodge, the two looked at each other, Wen Yuzhi blinked, her eyes became gentle and calm again, and she returned to the one who had no sense of existence.

Wen Yukou knew that her third sister was wise and close to the demon, and she was the best at killing people with a knife, since she was not ready to face the battle, it was best to hold her still.

The old lady didn't know what General Wen said, and her face was quite ugly, but she could barely maintain her apparent calm, and said: "All this has nothing to do with the girl, it was all ordered by me, don't you even believe me?" ”

"My son didn't dare. Dou's mother and daughter make you angry, and they should be punished. But the old lady should also think about it, why did her son go home? For the sake of the Dou family, the people who have already been promoted to the concubine Niangniang returned home. If the concubine knew that one of her sisters and nieces was seriously ill and relieved of power, and the other had thought about it in the Buddhist hall, I am afraid that she would be angry. General Wen: "If something goes wrong with the concubine in her anger this time, I am afraid that even my son will not be able to predict the consequences." ”

"Speaking of which, you're still going to intercede for their mother and daughter?" The old lady said it.

General Wen paused, a little hesitation appeared on his face, and after a while, he also said bluntly: "Yes." ”

"They made a big mistake!" The Buddha beads in the old lady's hand shook heavily!

"That's framed!" General Wen's eyes looked gloomily at Wen Yukou, and the more he looked at it, the more disgusted he became, needless to say, everyone knew who he was referring to.

Wen Yukou's face was pale, and the blood on her body seemed to be rapidly receding from her body, and her nails pinched the palms of her hands that were already covered with blood scabs. Only in this way can she hold back her grief and anger and stand up to argue for herself. She had to force herself to sit, even if it was full of knives.

Until, once again, my heart was painful to death.
