Chapter 209: Beauty and Rouge (6)
"The white bones are humming, there seems to be a grievance, otherwise, Chen Zhu, you should ask Miss Shen?" Bai Li pointed to the white bones under the deep pit, Chen Dahu thought for a while, and nodded solemnly.
"And what about this refined bone?" Chen Dahu asked.
"Isn't this with Bai Ze. Rest assured, we'll stay here motionless and look at these bones. Bai Li picked a slightly larger stone and sat down: "Oh, don't move, now you should rest assured." ”
"Rest assured, with Mr. Bai and Miss Bai sitting here, how can we not rest assured. The girl will sit down for a while, and I will go and ask Miss Shen. The origin of this white bone, she always has to give some explanation. ”
At this time, Miss Shen was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze, and those past events that she had deliberately forgotten emerged one by one.
She never imagined that the house would collapse. Not only did it collapse, but it also collapsed into a deep pit, revealing all the bones buried in it. Did those bones become essences, or did they just return from the underworld to ask for her life?
Miss Shen pursed her lips, and her memory suddenly returned to when she was twelve years old.
Until the age of twelve, she always felt that she was the happiest girl in Huaxi Town. My father and mother are affectionate and doted on her. But that all changed on that rainy night.
That night, she had gone to bed early, as usual. But in the middle of the night, a thunderclap sounded, which directly woke her up from her dream. She listened to the thunder outside, looked at the lightning flickering in the window, and felt uneasy, as if something was going to happen.
She was inexplicably flustered and even a little scared.
When she got up and heard the sound of the maid snoring, she was surprisingly not angry, but lightly walked around the maid's bed, opened the door, and walked towards her father's yard.
Outside, it was raining heavily.
She hit the umbrella, but the umbrella couldn't stop the wind and rain at all. Her shoes were wet, her trousers were wet, and even the tunic she wore was made of fine brocade. She didn't realize it, but walked towards her father's yard step by step.
The courtyard gate is slightly open, and standing at the courtyard gate, you can still see the lights in your father's room.
She remembers that when she was a child, her father and mother always slept late. Daddy has to read the bill every night, and my mother and mother either guard Daddy, or go to the small kitchen next to me to make supper for Daddy. My mother's craftsmanship is very good, and she can always make those seemingly ordinary ingredients into a different taste.
She thought, maybe her mother made something delicious for her father tonight, and she came over at this time, just in time.
As soon as I arrived at the door of the bedroom, I was about to knock on the door, but I heard my mother's urgent voice from the room: "What should I do?" I killed someone, I actually killed my husband. Da Kui, you tell me, what should I do now? ”
"Madame, don't worry, there will be a way, there will be a way."
Da Kui, the cook that the Shen family found from outside, is said to have come from the capital. Although his name is Da Kui, he is not the kind of honest and honest look, but a handsome and shrewd appearance.
In the middle of the night, how could this Da Kui appear in his father's bedroom, and what did his mother just say? She said she had killed her husband. Isn't my mother's husband my father? Mother killed Daddy? Mother killed daddy with this cook Da Kui?
She thought wildly, and at once pushed the door open.
The cold wind poured into the room as she pushed the door. There were four people in the range of her eyes. Two were lying, one was standing, and the other was sitting on a stool but visibly flustered, clutching the arm of the standing man with his hand.
The two people lying on the ground were also a man and a woman, her father on the left, and the one on the right made her feel a little familiar, but she couldn't remember who it was. It was Da Kui who was standing, but it was her mother who was sitting.
Seeing her, the two people who were standing and sitting were obviously flustered. As soon as she wanted to open her mouth, she saw Da Kui rushing over with a kitchen knife. Just as the bloody kitchen knife was about to slash her face, she heard her mother wail and fell to the ground and hugged Da Kui's leg with her hand.
"Da Kui, don't, it's my daughter, it's my daughter."
What happened next was like a nightmare. When Da Kui's kitchen knife was withdrawn, she was also pulled into the bedroom full of blood by her mother. Her mother closed the door in a panic and asked if she had brought the maid with her. After receiving another no-answer, her mother breathed a sigh of relief and said something that shocked her and made her unbelievable.
Her mother was originally the daughter of the richest man in Huaxi Town, and her father was just a depressed scholar. When they met for the first time, their mother fell in love with their father's talent, but their father fell in love with the wealth behind their mother. If you are talented, you can't eat it as a meal. Besides, even if you go to Beijing to catch the exam, you need accommodation and food, and you also need silver. Without money, you don't even dare to dream of being the champion, and it's in vain to do it.
My grandfather wanted my father to be rich, but my father refused, and my mother didn't marry my father, so my grandfather was forced to buy another house, so that her father married her mother in this house. Although the word Shen is written in this house, the title deed still belongs to the mother.
At the beginning, the relationship between my father and mother was indeed very good, but with the death of my grandfather, the business of the Shen family was transferred from my grandfather's hands to my father's hands, and all this wealth slowly became surnamed Shen. I don't know when my father looked for another woman outside without telling his mother, and bought another yard for that woman to live in. Later, they secretly gave birth to a son in that yard. Dad and the woman had long been in the way of their mother's parents, and they privately discussed to get rid of their mothers.
The mother is also the daughter of a businessman, so she will not be as stupid as an ordinary woman. Besides, this husband has changed his mind, and the first thing he feels must be the person next to him, his lady. The mother has already found someone to secretly investigate everything related to her father, but because of the relationship between husband and wife in the past, it has not been exposed.
Tonight, it was a Hongmen banquet deliberately set up by my father, but the praying mantis caught the cicada and the yellow finch was behind. Daddy thought he was a praying mantis and his mother was a cicada, but he didn't know that his mother was the yellow finch staring at the praying mantis. After three rounds of drinking, my father saw that his mother was slightly drunk, so he called out the woman who had hidden in the room in advance, and wanted the two to conspire to kill his mother, but he didn't expect that Da Kui, who was hiding on the beam, saw it clearly, and directly gave them the result with a kitchen knife.
Either her father died or her mother died, facing such a reality, she was completely stupid when she was only twelve years old. She just listened to her mother tell the whole thing blankly, and promised her mother that she would help her keep it a secret, and then she watched her mother and that Da Kui pack the bodies of her father and the woman into boxes, and I don't know where to transport them to at night.
On the second day, after the rain, Da Kui deliberately changed his clothes, pretending to be his father and saying that he wanted to go out to buy goods. Half a month later, the news that my father had fallen into the water with the goods came, and it was Da Kui, who had already returned home secretly, who pretended to take people to look for it. It is conceivable that it is impossible for him to find his father, so the master of the Shen family has changed from a living person to a dead person as a matter of course.
As for the child left by her father and the woman, she didn't ask, but she knew that her mother and Da Kui would never allow the child to live.
