Chapter 32: The Step-Lady Shaw

Only then did she look around, and was surprised that they were unconsciously walking towards the courtyard where Wei lived before his death, and she shouted out in a hurry: "Stop!" ”

Lin Yanzhi raised her eyebrows and looked at her in confusion, she had no choice but to say: "There is no good scenery to see ahead, just a dilapidated house, let's go back to another place." ”

"My sister thinks about it before she speaks. For me, it's the best view of the province. ”

"Sister Yanran? Is there ......?"

"The mother's former residence."

When Lin Yanzhi heard this, she took Su Yanran's hand and said, "Then sister, do you want to go now?" If you want, I'll go with you. ”

"Yanzhi, you...... Unafraid? ”

"What is there to be afraid of, since it is the best scenery in my sister's heart, I naturally want to take a look and see what memories my sister has left there?"

Su Yanran took her hand instead, said "yes" softly, and then led her forward and continued to walk.

Su Leying saw it, she was very anxious and panicked, she immediately gave Cuiru a look, Cuiru understood, and immediately ran away.

When I arrived, it was not abandoned and barren as Lin Yanzhi imagined, but it was well kept, but it was cooler and less vibrant.

Su Yanran explained: "Jinyi and I will come to sort it out every once in a while. ”

"Jinyi? It's the girl who came to find you in Lianxin Lake that day, right? But why didn't you see her today? ”

"On the day of Qixi Festival, it was rare for her to come to her township, so I asked her to go out of the house to have a good gathering with her relatives, and stay a few more days before coming back."

Suddenly, there was some banging sound and a faint voice shouting, "Help...... Save...... Help me......"

At the moment, several people looked at each other blankly, and Lin Yanzhi was the first to react and asked, "Sister, this?" ”

Su Yanran also shook her head suspiciously.

And Su Leying was eyes wandering, and she muttered: "Dead, dead?" Then he stepped forward and pulled Lin Yanzhi in a panic and said, "Ghost! It's a ghost! Aren't adults afraid? Me, let's go! ”

Lin Yanzhi stared at her and said: "Compared with ghosts, I am more afraid of evil people, and if it is really a ghost, there is a high chance that it is Sister Yanran's mother, then there is no need to be afraid." ”

Feeling that the other hand was being held hard, he turned his head and saw Su Yanran crying, and said to her: "Yanzhi, I want to see my mother again, she, was she just talking ...... Save her? ”

"Okay, let's go together, if you're scared, stay here." After she finished speaking, she shook off Su Leying, turned her head and said to Tao Xing, "Tao Xing, if you are also afraid......

"Adults are not afraid, and I am not afraid."

Mama Liu next to her saw that she was looking at the young lady who grew up like this, sighed lightly, and also stepped forward and said: "You guys walk behind me, I have eaten the old slave until this age, what is there, the old slave is blocking you." ”

So the four of them searched for the source of the sound together and came to a side room in the corner.

"This is my mother's study...... Su Yanran crossed over to Mama Liu, walked forward quickly, but found that the front of the door was bolted with a long wooden board and locked, frowning, "Who locked it?" ”

When Tao Xing heard this, she turned around and ran back to look down, and finally picked up a big stone and came back: "My lord, I'll try to see if I can smash it open." ”

After Lin Yanzhi gave Tao Xing an appreciative look, she took turns to relay with her, and after their efforts, the lock finally fell to the ground, and they hurriedly pulled out the iron chain board.

As soon as they opened the door, an object fell in front of themβ€”

It's people!

When Su Yanran saw the familiar figure and clothes, she already had an ominous feeling in her heart, and when Lin Yanzhi squatted down and turned the person over, when she saw the appearance clearly, she immediately called out: "Jinyi!" ”

She quickly stepped forward, squatted down and hugged Jinyi, looking at the pale face and chapped lips, no matter how she called or patted the person in her arms, she couldn't help crying.

Mama Liu's heart was also stinging when she saw that it was Jinyi, she didn't believe that such a smart and clever and well-behaved girl was gone, she squatted down and stretched out her slightly trembling hand and put a finger under Jinyi's nose-

And the breath!

She immediately hurriedly saluted Lin Yanzhi and said, "Lord Lin, Jinyi still has to be saved, the old slave will go to the doctor and bother the adult to take care of the eldest lady." Then he quickened his pace.

Lin Yanzhi turned her head to Tao Xing while comforting Su Yanran and said, "Pour some water into her first." ”

Tao Xing also went out to find water.

Soon, Mama Liu led a sweaty doctor back, he gave Jinyi the needle, and after taking the lower pulse, he said that the problem was not big, and asked them to warm the ginseng soup and let her drink it immediately when she woke up, so he left the prescription and left.

After a while, Jinyi finally half-raised her eyelids and woke up.

She called out weakly, "Miss......"

The big stone in Su Yanran's heart finally disappeared, and she hurriedly picked up the ginseng soup and said, "Drink the soup first, just drink it." ”

After Jinyi slowly drank the soup, she ate some hot food, and when she had the strength, she hugged Su Yanran and cried again.

Lin Yanzhi smiled and sighed, and said softly: "Okay, don't cry, cry again and wait for the ginseng soup to flow out of your eyes."

The two of them stopped crying, and Su Yanran smoothed the bangs in front of Jin Yi's forehead: "What the hell is going on, why are you locked inside?" ”

Jin Yi sniffed, choked up and said, "It's the second miss, the slave thought that she might have to go out for two or three days that day, and the first lady didn't clean it for several days, so it passed." When the slave maid was cleaning the study, the door was suddenly shut, and then I heard the second lady outside, 'Tell me not to take the bracelet!' Since you miss Wei so much, then you should accompany her here! Then the slave and maid heard the sound of the lock, and no one answered when they banged on the door and shouted. ”

"The slave maid thought about going out of the window, who knew that they even sealed the window, and they were going to give up, but when they thought that if the slave maid left, the young lady would be left alone, and the first lady treated me so well, I promised to take good care of the eldest lady for the rest of my life, so I continued to shout until the end."

She clasped her hands together and said, "It must be that the first lady blessed her in heaven, so that the eldest lady found out and came to save the slave maid." ”

"She, she...... What is this for human life?! It's just β€”β€”! After hearing this, Su Yanran became angry, and after finally stabilizing her breath, she spoke: "Mama Liu, help me bring Su Leying over, I, as the eldest sister, will do my duty as the eldest sister today!" ”

Mama Liu, who was also angry in her heart, made a straight face, and went to bring Su Leying without saying a word.

"What for! Am I what you old slave can touch casually?! Let me go! ”

"Shut up and get on your knees!"

"Delusion! Su Yanran, don't take yourself too seriously, why do you want me to kneel! Su Leying was about to rush out of the door after fighting to get out.

Mama Liu quickly stopped her and carried her back in front of Su Yanran.

"I am the eldest daughter of Su Mansion, your eldest sister, you have done something wrong, you treat human life as a child's play, I told Grandma Sun to harm me before, and now I come to harm the people around me, you say, why should I?"

"Isn't it just a slave! If it's dead, it's dead, I'll give her more paper money, and besides, I've heard the doctor say, isn't she dead?! ”

"You! You ......" Su Yanran clenched her fists and trembled, "I don't repent!" It seems that my forbearance over the years has made you forget how I used to be! ”

Then, he got up and left, and when he came back, he had a silver sword engraved with the word moon in his hand, walked in front of Su Leying step by step, and raised the sword in his hand against her shoulder with a trembling hand, and pressed it to her neck: "Kneel!" ”

"Yanran! What are you doing here?! ”

Outside the door came a well-maintained lady with delicate makeup and luxurious clothes, and she looked at the scene in front of her and was so frightened that her heart was about to jump out.

Su Leying, who almost knelt down, saw that her mother finally came and had the confidence again, but she didn't dare to move, she only reluctantly looked through the afterglow of her eyes, and her mouth trembled: "Mother! Tell her to get out of the way! ”

Xiao Shi swallowed subconsciously and persuaded: "Yanran, if you have something to say, let's sit down and talk about it, the sword has no eyes, you put it down first." ”

"According to the law of etiquette, I respect you as a mother, but what have you done? You know what a good person has been taught by you, as long as she kneels down and apologizes to my mother and Jinyi, I will naturally let her go. With that, he moved his sword again.

After Xiao Shi frowned and closed his eyes, he reluctantly raised the corners of his mouth and raised his eyes to look at her: "Yanran, no matter what, how can the master kneel to the slave?" ”

Seeing that Su Yanran didn't seem to hear it, she estimated in her heart, gritted her teeth and said, "Okay." Ying'er, get on your knees. ”

"Mother......

"Kneel!"

Su Leying suddenly cried aggrievedly, staring at the ground with a pair of eyes full of resentment, and then slowly knelt down.

The moment his knees touched the ground, the chill in his neck disappeared at the same time.

Just as she was about to get up, Xiao Shi walked over quickly, squatted in front of her and hugged her, and said in her ear: "Keep crying, this can't be in vain." ”

When Su Leying heard this, she understood, and cried: "Sister, my sister is wrong, my sister doesn't want to harm you, I really don't know about Grandma Sun, you and I have grown up together since childhood, when I was a child, my sister's birthday gift every year was stored in my room, even if the sisterhood between us is no longer what it used to be, I can't murder you." As for her, I was just jealous of my sister's kindness to her, and wanted to teach her a lesson, and I didn't want her life. ”

Seeing that Su Yanran was a little annoyed, she said to Jinyi again: "I really didn't want to take your life, and when I learned that you were okay, I was also relieved." ”

When Su Yanran heard her words, her heart was moved, and she was also reflecting on whether she was wrong back then, and blamed her, if she had taken her by her side all these years to teach her well, would she not have been taught bad by the Xiao family.

She sighed lightly and was about to reach out to help Su Leying up.

At this time, Xiao Shi suddenly stepped forward and blocked in front of Su Leying and said: "I rely on you, Yanran, I know that although you call me a mother on your lips, you hate me in your heart, and it doesn't matter how you disdain me on weekdays, but she can't!" ”

Xiao Shi pointed at Jinyi: "She stole my things, everything else is fine, but that was the first hairpin that the master gave me when he married me!" For the sake of Mrs. Xian, I just locked her up for two days as a punishment, but now you are forcing me and Yanran to kneel in front of her? ”

Everyone was stunned.

What is she talking about and what is she talking about?

Xiao Shi said again: "...... It's all up to you, as long as you are willing to accept our mother and daughter sincerely. After saying that, if you are short, you have to kneel down.

Mama Liu and Lin Yanzhi reacted quickly, feeling bad, and when they were about to step forward to lift these two up, a low and angry voice sounded outside the door: "Bastard!" ”

Su Yunqi strode across the threshold, hugged Xiao Shi distressedly to stop her movements, and went to help Su Leying up, he pointed at Su Yanran angrily: "Your father's teachings to you on weekdays have been taken as deaf ears by you?" She is the wife I am marrying, and she is also your current mother, how can you be so disrespectful! ”

Su Leying sobbed on the side and said, "Father, daughter and mother want to punish the criminal slave, is this wrong?" Why did my sister humiliate us like this? When the daughter refused, the sister took the sword and put it on her daughter's neck, but the daughter couldn't. However, fortunately, you came, father, and the father knew how scared his daughter was at that time."

Su Yunqi comforted her distressedly after hearing this, and at the same time looked at Su Yanran's hand, seeing that he was really holding a sword, he immediately roared again: "Crazy?!" How did you persecute your sister so much for the sake of a slave of sin? Come! Shut the eldest lady in her room and kneel down to meditate on yourself! ”

Su Yanran stared at Su Leying blankly: "Hopeless." Then he looked directly at Su Yunqi, for a long time, and said with sadness in his eyes: "Father only listens to their one-sided words, and doesn't ask his daughter?" ”

Su Yunqi calmed down a little, and when he heard her words, he also wanted to hear her explanation.

However, the mother-in-law in the house had already arrived, and she was almost about to meet Su Yanran, and in a hurry, Jinyi knelt at Su Yunqi's feet and said, "Master! That's not true! The slave didn't steal the lady's things, it was the second lady who wanted the eldest lady's bracelet, but the slave didn't let it, and the second lady held a grudge, so she locked up the slave and maid......"

"Joke! Yanran must have listened to your words to be like this, master, such a mouth full of nonsense, the slave who bites the master can no longer be left. ”

Su Yunqi also felt the same way, his youngest daughter had a pure character, how could she do this for the sake of just a bracelet, this person would only be a scourge if she stayed by Yanran's side.

He kicked Jin Yi away: "Drag this criminal slave down to fight, and then sell it." ”

Lin Yanzhi, who couldn't stand it, stepped forward and arched his hand: "Master Su, the lower officials can ......"

He stopped: "This is the official's family matter, don't bother with Lao Lin's orders." ”

Su Yanran hugged Jinyi tightly and didn't let her mother-in-law take her away, Xiao secretly made a look, and those mothers-in-law became bold and began to tear Su Yanran away.

"Don't hurt Yanran!" Xiao Shi blended in as he spoke, seized the opportunity, raised his hand, and slapped Su Yanran in the face.

"Smackβ€”β€”!
