Chapter Ninety-Eight: Marriage
Probably because Mo Chun went to the kitchen to serve ginger soup and was seen, Yang Zixian came before dinner.
Zhao Wanning drank the hot ginger soup and slept under the soft brocade quilt, and basically returned to normal.
As soon as Yang Zixian came, she pretended to be unwell and lay on the bed weakly.
Yang Zixian saw Zhao Wanning, who was sick, and was worried that he would ruin his good deeds, so he was about to get angry in front of Zhao Wanning.
"How did you two take care of Miss Zhao?" Yang Zixian tried to suppress the anger in his body, but he still raised his voice uncontrollably.
Mo Chun and Mo Qiu immediately knelt on the ground, and their voices trembled: "It's the slaves and maids who are not good, please punish the son!" ”
Zhao Wanning hurriedly propped herself up and pleaded for the two of them: "Engong, don't blame them, I have to go to the garden to scatter my heart......"
As soon as she heard Zhao Wanning's voice, Yang Zixian remembered her humble character in front of her, and hurriedly showed a kind smile.
Yang Zixian smiled and said, "Since it is Miss Zhao's order, you can get up." In the future, if you encounter this situation again, remember to dress the lady thicker, after all, it is freezing now, what if it freezes? ”
The latter sentence was said to Zhao Wanning.
Zhao Wanning endured the nausea and squeezed out a grateful smile: "Thank you." ”
"Hey, didn't I say that? Don't call me Engong. Yang Zixian said humbly: "Just call me Zixian." ”
Zhao Wanning thought that she was going to save the silver candle tonight, and it was difficult to refuse, so she called "Zixian" from the good.
Yang Zixian showed a satisfied smile.
He looked at Zhao Wanning, who was still a little weak lying on the pillow, her cheeks were white and red, like a red plum with snow falling, her eyes were half-closed, the corners of her eyes drooped, and the tails of her eyes were red, looking very cute.
Yang Zixian's heart was shocked, and it seemed that he had to speed up the progress.
Soon, a servant from the front yard came to look for him, Yang Zixian was worried that there was something in his family, so he comforted Zhao Wanning a few words, and then got up and left.
As he left, he glanced at Mo Chun.
Mo Chun got up and followed him out of the door.
"How is this Miss Zhao today?" Yang Zixian asked as he walked.
Mo Chun lowered her head and followed behind him, she knew what Yang Zixian wanted to know, he just wanted to confirm whether Zhao Wanning was affected by the dream incense. Therefore, Mo Chun recalled the performance of the last person who used the dream incense, made up some lies, and gave Yang Zixian an errand.
"Did she really ask you about my marriage?" Yang Zixian was overjoyed. Under what circumstances would a woman take the initiative to inquire about a man's marriage, and naturally she would be pleased with the man.
Yang Zixian hooked the corners of his mouth, the woman who disliked him extremely much twice before suddenly fell in love with him, and the pleasure of this conquest made him flutter.
"Yes, Childe." Mo Chun carefully observed Yang Zixian's expression and confirmed that he had believed it, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
Miss Zhao is going to save her maid tonight, and she must not let her son be suspicious of Miss Zhao.
Yang Zixian pondered for a moment, and then said, "Take care of Miss Zhao today, and make sure that she recovers her strength tomorrow, understand?" ”
Mo Chun's heart sank suddenly, this is a not very good signal, after the son said this in the past, he would ......
"Do you understand?" Seeing that Mo Chun did not respond, Yang Zixian repeated it impatiently.
"The slave and maid understand, understand." Mo Chun replied again and again: "Son, please rest assured, the slave and maid will not disgrace their mission." ”
Hearing this, Yang Zixian smiled with satisfaction.
"Go back and take good care of Miss Zhao."
Mo Chun told Zhao Wanning about it when he went back.
"Miss Zhao, you have to escape as soon as possible!" Mo Qiu admonished: "Son, he, he really ...... You have to be careful. ”
Mo Qiu didn't know how to continue, Yang Zixian had many ways to torture people, and she had seen many women in this courtyard who were tortured by him.
Every time, she and Mo Chun wanted to save people, but they didn't dare to intervene, and when they saw those women suffering, they always felt uneasy in their consciences, as if they were Yang Zixian's accomplices.
This time, she and Mo Chun also discussed for a long time before deciding to go out once and help Zhao Wanning.
If you can help Zhao Wanning, it would be great. If they can't help, they can do their best.
Zhao Wanning changed into the clothes she wore when she came.
Mo Chun gave his maid clothes to Zhao Wanning, Mo Chun was plumper than her, Zhao Wanning was wearing her own clothes, and Mo Chun's clothes were just right.
"After dinner, the guards in the inner courtyard will change shifts. When you follow Mo Qiu to the kitchen, it is already dark, you just have to keep your head down, those guards will not recognize you. ”
Mo Chun instructed: "The firewood room is at the back of the kitchen, and when you arrive, remember to turn into the alley on your right, where one side is against the wall, so that no one will find it." ”
Zhao Wanning nodded again and again. At last, she said gratefully, "I don't know how to thank you both, and when I escape, I'll save you both!" ”
Mo Chun shook his head and said, "After you escape, run quickly, the farther you run, the better." This Yang Mansion is not someone you and I can offend. ”
"No matter how much the Yang Mansion bullies, it's just a big merchant. When I escape, I will definitely report to the official and let the government find out how his Yang family robbed the people's daughter. Zhao Wanning said solemnly.
Mo Qiu chuckled, and she said, "Miss Zhao, you better not report to the official." No one in this Qingzhou Mansion knows who doesn't know, this Yang family has a lot of collusion with the government, and it's not nice to say it, then the Qingzhou Mansion can't wait to follow the Yang family's surname Yang! ”
"What if you go to the police? The Yang family has already taken care of all the officials, big and small, and if you go to report to the officials, you will only throw yourself into the net. If you are sent back by the government again, you may not be able to escape a second time. ”
Zhao Wanning was distracted, she knew that Pei Yue was checking the Yang family, and guessed that the Yang family might be a little unclean, but she didn't want the Yang family to be so bold and reckless.
Zhao Wanning said in disbelief: "Is this Yang Mansion really so hand-eyed? ”
Mo Chun bowed slightly, her face was embarrassed, and she spoke with some difficulty: "Miss Zhao, I can't hide it, our former master's family, the Mo family, the owner of the Qin County Salt Farm, was ruined by this Yang family. ”
"Before the Yang family took off, the Mo family was the richest man in Qingzhou Mansion, and it was also well-known in Qingzhou Mansion, and the Yang family has always followed behind the Mo family."
Later, the second master of the Yang family came to the throne and was unwilling to follow the Mo family anymore, so he had crooked thoughts. He didn't know what he did, he only knew that he later called Huang Yi'an, the Taishou of Qingzhou, a brother and sister. ”
The next year, the Mo family's salt farm was annexed by the Yang family. It was not enough for the Yang family to swallow the Mo family's salt farm, but also framed the Mo family's uncle to be imprisoned, and my uncle finally died tragically in prison. The Mo family has been ruined since then, and the children and grandchildren of the Mo family have died and fled. ”
"Even a big family like the Mo family can't escape the persecution of the Yang family, how can you, a weak woman, fight against the Yang family?"
Mo Chun said that her voice was choked up at the end, Mo Qiu hugged her and silently wiped her tears, and Mo Qiu herself burst into tears.
Zhao Wanning tried hard to digest Mo Chun's words, Mo Chun's words were sincere, and she didn't know her identity, what she said should be the truth. I don't know how many Pei Yue found out......
Zhao Wanning secretly made up her mind that when she escaped from the courtyard, she would let the eldest princess check the Yang Mansion well, and Mo Chun and Mo Qiu could be witnesses.
Seeing that Mo Chun and Mo Qiu were depressed, Zhao Wanning comforted: "You have been in this courtyard all along, you may not know." The Holy Lord had already sent a minister to Qingzhou, and Huang Yi'an, the Taishou of Qingzhou, had been arrested and imprisoned, and would soon be escorted to the capital to await trial. ”
According to Huang Yi'an's official position, he will definitely be sent to Dali Temple, Dali Temple has always enforced the law impartially, as long as Huang Yi'an enters Dali Temple, the bad things he did will be clearly investigated. At that time, the Mo family will also be able to avenge their grievances. ”
"Really?" Mo Qiu's face was delighted.
Zhao Wanning nodded.
"What about the Yang family? The Yang family will definitely bribe the minister, in case the minister is bought by the Yang family, wouldn't it be ......" Mo Chun looked sad, she was really afraid of the Yang family, and money could make the ghost grind.
Zhao Wanning soothed: "As for this Yang Mansion, the Holy Lord has sent the eldest princess of Chaoyang to Qingzhou, and she will check the Yang family." ”
Mo Chun was still frowning: "What about the eldest princess?" How much can she find out for a woman? ”
"You can't say that." Zhao Wanning raised her voice: "Why can't the woman find out the dirt under this Qingzhou Mansion?" The eldest princess is well-known for her wisdom and courage in the capital, but she is just a Yang family, so it will definitely be fine. ”
Mo Chun didn't have much hope, seeing that Zhao Wanning was so determined, but she didn't say anything, she just cleaned up the table silently.
Zhao Wanning saw that Mo Chun refused to believe herself, and she also knew that she had been oppressed by the Yang family, the Yang family had been in this Qingzhou Mansion for a long time, and the Yang family was like a mountain in her heart, and no one could move a single bit.
Zhao Wanning thought for a while, and then asked: "If there is a chance in the future, then the Yang family has been arrested, are you willing to be a witness?" ”
"What witness?" Mo Qiu asked suspiciously.
Although Mo Qiu didn't speak, he also looked confused.
Zhao Wanning explained: "That is, if the Yang family is arrested, the official uniform needs to try their evil deeds, and then they will also need human and material evidence, and only if they have all the human and physical evidence, they can be brought to justice." ”
"Are you willing to testify? Prove what the Yang family did to the Mo family, framing the Mo family's uncle to go to prison? ”
Mo Qiu nodded again and again: "Of course I do!" ”
Mo Chun also nodded slightly, and said, "If there is such a day, the two of us sisters will definitely go to the government to testify." ”
Zhao Wanning smiled and muttered, "That's good." ”
"What?" Mo Qiu didn't hear clearly, so he asked.
Zhao Wanning thought for a while and said, "I mean, I hope that day will come soon." ”
Mo Qiu also echoed: "Yes, yes." When the Yang family is imprisoned, the Mo family will be wronged, and the Mo family's son-in-law will be able to come back, right? I don't know if Miss Fifth has grown taller now, has she eaten well......"
Mo Chun on the side didn't say anything, she looked out the window in a daze, and a red plum was planted in the yard facing the window. In the cold of winter, it is the season when the red plum is in full bloom, but the red plum is bare, and there is not even a single flower bone.
It was a plum tree planted by the fifth lady of the Mo family, since she left the Mo Mansion, the plum tree was like this, it did not bloom or grow leaves, as if it had died.
Yang Zixian said that he cut down the plum tree many times, but Mo Chun and Mo Qiu tried their best to keep it.
I only hope that the plum tree will still be there when Miss Five comes back.
