Siwan looked anxious and said to the old lady: "Grandmother, did you see the slave maid outside just now?" ”

"Don't worry about her, don't worry about her, grandmother has tied her into the firewood room, let her reflect on herself first." The old lady replied, "You, you are delicate and unique in your way of doing things, but this is conducive to keeping those subordinates alive and making you more dignified in front of them. In the future, if my grandmother is gone, all the things up and down this family will have to be handed over to you, and only when you take care of it will my grandmother rest assured. ”

"No, grandmother will always be healthy and young, and you will always be with Wan'er." Siwan said.

"You, hahaha, good, grandmother, will try to stay with my granddaughter-in-law all the time." Grandmother smiled: "You are the same as when you were a child, you are still so talkative and make me happy." ”

"Then, grandmother, do you agree that Wan'er is going to deal with that slave now?" Siwan asked.

"Yes, I don't have to worry about your errands, but ah, grandmother wants to go with you and you to have a look." Grandmother said.

In the firewood room, the old grandmother sat on a chair, looking at the slave maid, her expression was gloomy and solemn, and she didn't say a word.

Siwan asked her on the side: "You are a small subordinate, with no background, no strength and no power, how can you do such a bold thing as arguing about your master?" I'm curious, can you answer me? ”

"Huh...... I won't pay attention to anyone but the old lady, because you don't deserve it! The slave was still arrogant at this time.

The old lady spoke: "Presumptuous! How can you speak so to the future head of our house? Besides, I don't have you as a slave, and I can't even do this most basic respect, so it's better to sell it to Zuichun Building and fill our family's accounts! ”

As soon as the slave maid heard this, she seemed to know the seriousness of the matter, and immediately appeared in front of the old woman: "Old lady, old lady, you can't treat Chunmei like this, I used to take care of you, you can't help but look at your feelings." ”

"Haha, affection? Are you too embarrassed to intercede with me? Who made my mother-in-law's eyeliner to spy on me in the first place? Who puts the elixir in my diet every day? Who smiled so brightly when I was kicked out of the door by her? Who did this outright betrayal? When death is dying, do you think of love? Are you qualified to mention it? The old lady said angrily, looking at the man who had betrayed her.

"You can't say that, at least, we used to live together, you have to look at the hard work if you don't look at the credit. Old lady. Chunmei grabbed the corner of her undergarment, tears streaming out.

The old lady kicked her arm away with her foot: "You should Qingxin We used to live together, and you still have a little hard work, otherwise, just the little you did, according to my previous temper, I would have sold you into the Drunken Spring Building a long time ago!" He turned to Siwan and said, "You also heard about her previous betrayal of me, right?" I'll leave the rest to you, you can do it, I don't want to talk about it. Then he got up and walked out.

When Chunmei watched the old lady walk out step by step, she was just crying there, crying very sadly.

Siwan sat on the chair where the old lady had sat just now, and looked at the embarrassed slave in front of her: "Why did you do this before?" Why bother? ”

Chunmei kept pounding the ground with her hand: "I haven't betrayed her, never, everything, it's just because I have a personal relationship." ”

Siwan heard her say this and knew that the two first met on the second day of the old lady's wedding, when they were both confidants of the same age, Chunmei watched the old lady deal with family affairs every day, and was attracted by her style and appearance, and another feeling sprouted in her heart.

Just one day, the old lady's mother-in-law found her and asked her to monitor the old lady's every move, and report what she saw and heard every day to the old lady's mother-in-law. Originally, Chunmei was very resistant to this matter, but that morning, when she wanted to report it to the old lady, when she pushed the door open, she saw the old lady and the old general lying naked on the bed, and there were still a few drops of virgin blood next to the bed.

At this time, she finally understood that she and the old lady were no longer masters and servants or friends and relatives, and Chunmei already had the most undeserved love for her, and had her own private affairs. With an inexplicable possessiveness, this possessiveness drove her thoughts, and at that time she only thought that "as long as the old lady can leave the Xie Mansion, she will be able to go to her and fly away after a while." ”

So she agreed to her mother-in-law's request, put the medicine in the old lady's soup every day, monitored the old lady's every move, and even began to fabricate the facts, in order to drive the old lady out.

The day she was looking forward to finally came, on a snowy day in the cold winter moon, she was finally swept out of the house by her mother-in-law, and a piece of paper and a book knocked her out. But it was by no means that Chunmei reported anything to her mother-in-law, it was her mother-in-law who found out the clues. When she looked at the moment she went out, Chunmei's face showed joy that she couldn't hide. She thought to herself, "As long as I behave better, I can get the slave release document in the spring of the next year, and then I can take her away and fly away!" ”

But she missed one thing, the old lady's mother-in-law was not a gentle person, she drove the old lady out first, and after a few days, she was charged with a trumped-up crime and forced her to commit suicide. Since then, she has lived this kind of life in the house every day, and she began to regret it, but she did not know the whereabouts of the old woman, and lived in the shadow of guilt and pain all day long.

However, what no one expected was that at that time, the old lady led 300 people to attack the most powerful country at that time, Dongguan, but the soldiers fell one after another because they did not have rich combat experience, and finally she returned to the barracks to think about changing the battle plan.

In the end, she used beauty to successfully attract the attention of the enemy's military advisor, accepted her as his wife, and later returned to his homeland, the unexpected gain was that the enemy's military advisor turned out to be the son of a deposed queen who was unattended in the cold palace, and the two fell in love because of the same fate. She helped his mother ascend to the throne of the emperor, and killed the tyrant with her own hands as a female general of Nanzhao in the court.

In order to express her sincere gratitude, the empress signed a treaty with her not to attack each other and invade the territory, and also generously said that the people of Nanzhao could also come to Dongguan to visit, and finally, she agreed to her son's request to marry her, and the bride price was to give Nanzhao eight cities, which were managed by the Nanzhao Emperor. The wedding of the two was blessed by all the people of Dongguan, and they are a couple that everyone will envy in Dongguan.

One day, she told her current husband about her previous marriage, and he was also very sympathetic to her, so after discussing with the empress, the empress agreed to let her son and daughter-in-law return to Nanzhao and return to Xiefu.

She first came to the court alone, and told the emperor all the things she had experienced in the past few years, word for word, and then she took the royal forbidden army to kill in Xie Mansion, and none of the people who had bullied her and insulted her were spared, but she relented before killing Chunmei and left her.

Later, she became the head of the Xie Mansion, renovated the inside and outside of the Xie Mansion, and the new slaves and maids were interrogated and tested by her every day. Finally cultivated a bunch of slaves and maids to protect the master. And what about her husband? Naturally, he stayed here as a proton of a neighboring country, but no one among the people of Nanzhao knew his real name, because he was in Xie Mansion, so people used to call him General Xie over time.

The old lady's title of "Mrs. Zhenguo" came from that time.

Siwan heard her say so many legendary stories about the old woman, and couldn't help asking, "Then, why are you talking about me and Xie Chen last night?" Let them spread rumors, do you know what the impact will be if someone here spreads it? ”

Chunmei looked at her, her eyes full of jealousy and resentment: "Because I hate!" I'm unwilling, I'm not reconciled, why did I live with her for so long before, but it could only be a master-servant relationship? I hate the old lady's mother-in-law for blocking my way to her! I hate you too! I hate you, why do you have to do nothing to gain her trust and pity? Obviously, I am the one who accompanied her all the way, why can't she see everything I do? Why should any of you stop me? Why can't she ever see how good I am to her! Why! ”

"You've been looking at these things from your point of view, so do you have the feelings of an old lady in your thoughts?" Siwan reprimanded her: "Although I am a princess, but over the years in the palace also inquired a lot of new things, since I can remember, the old lady should be attacking Dongguan at that time, according to those soldiers who have been on the battlefield, there was a little boy who had just entered the barracks with her to the battlefield, and saw the old lady killing all sides, exhausted appearance, when the old lady still held the military flag at the last moment of falling, she said, the military flag is a symbol of the country, the military flag does not fall, the country will not perish. When the soldiers were gone, it was the little boy who came back with the old lady on her back, and I had seen her with my own eyes, when she was covered in blood and still had an indomitable expression on her face. When she woke up, her first reaction was not to arrange her clothes and ask for food, but to ask the soldiers next to her if the war continued to ravage innocent people...... She is the most beloved female general I have ever met, just like you just said, she exchanged the strategy of one person for the peace and prosperity of two countries, so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. He also earnestly inspected the political governance of Dongguan, and learned from Dongguan's practice of respecting women, so as to begin to let the women of Nanzhao have their own dignity and status, and she can really be recorded in the history of Nanzhao. ”

"What's the use of saying so much?" Chunmei looked at her disdainfully.

Siwan looked at her: "What I just said was my evaluation of her as a princess of a country, and next, I want to talk about what I saw as a bystander." ”

She breathed a long sigh of relief: "In my Nanzhao country, there can be a relationship between the master and the servant, a relationship between relatives and servants, a relationship of friends, and a subordinate relationship, but there must not be more feelings, this is the first, no matter what emotions you have, from the moment you agreed to the request of the old woman's mother-in-law, you have betrayed her, according to the relevant regulations in Nanzhao, this kind of behavior is harmful to the relationship between the master and the servant and the master's own safety, this is the second, you spread the matter of the palace last night to the ears of the people in the form of rumors, tarnishing the reputation of the palace, this is the third!" If you want to calculate according to the rules of the palace, you should be on the thirty boards to show your blame! Relying on his own little deterrence in the house to casually deduct other people's food, this is the fourth, this crime, if I remember correctly, you can go directly to Dali Temple to investigate. ”

Seeing that Chunmei's body had begun to tremble slightly, Siwan thought: "I want to use it a little bit, let's squeeze the fierce medicine again" She continued to influence Chunmei: "Among them, you agreed to other people's requests, so that the old lady was swept out of the house in front of everyone, and she lost face, and when he went into battle to kill the enemy with a wound in his heart, do you know what kind of mood she had?" You keep saying you want to go away with her, but what is there in everything you do for her? Let's put it another way, I'll take 10,000 steps back and say, if, the old woman doesn't have a little kung fu and recommends herself and goes into battle to kill the enemy, in the era when women have not yet risen, do you know how difficult it will be for a divorced broken shoe to live alone and survive in the capital? You keep saying that you want to fly away with her, but you don't think about these problems at all! What does it mean? Explain that you only have yourself in your heart! Or can you say that you like her and it's just pretending, and when you insist on going your own way, do you know how many innocent people you will cause trouble? ”

Looking at her now, the collar of her blouse was already soaked, and her eyes were looking at a certain place with dull eyes, Siwan said again: "Think about it yourself, what I just said, those things you thought were very simple, have you really thought about the consequences?" ”

Chunmei knew that she shouldn't treat the old lady like this, and she was extremely ashamed, and asked the princess to let the guards take me to Dali Temple to receive the punishment. Chunmei said while crying.

"For this kind of person who can't find remorse, the biggest pain is to let her live in guilt all day long, so that she can firmly feel guilty and better wash away the crimes she once committed." Siwan thought. Then he shouted: "Come on, bring the things of the main palace in the main guest room." ”

Then I saw the guard take a piece of paper and bring it over, and then handed it to Chunmei: "This is the slave release document given to you by the old lady, take it and leave this Xie Mansion." ”

"This? This is what the old lady gave me? Chunmei asked her in disbelief.

Siwan took a long time to say: "This year's spring plum blossoms are extraordinarily beautiful, just like you." Then he gestured for the guards to drive her out of Xie's house.

I heard the old lady say that only Chunmei and herself knew what it meant. Siwan is just playing on the spot. But she firmly believes that from the moment she went out to cry loudly, she knew that she would probably live in guilt for the rest of her life and couldn't extricate herself.

"Sure enough, the cutting is constant, the reason is still messy, it is sorrowful, and it is a sea of love that cannot be crossed." Siwan sighed: "Creation makes people, providence, providence!" ”

The old lady came in at this time: "I have heard what you have just said. ”

"Grandmother, ...... now," Siwan wanted to ask, but she didn't know how to speak.

"She, she used to be my good sister, I thought she was instructed by someone to trap me, but when I heard it outside the door just now, it wasn't what I thought, okay, now she can only go to that place to miss our old bits and pieces." Grandmother said.

"In Nanzhao, Chunmei will only grow in one place, and that is ......," Siwan said.

Grandmother smiled: "That's right, that place, quiet, without the hustle and bustle of cars and horses and the lively crowd of the capital, is the most suitable for atonement and repentance." Let her stay there, too. Then he asked her: "Do you know that there are so many talented and wealthy businessmen in Beijing, why did I choose you as my daughter-in-law?" ”

Siwan shook her head: "Shu Wan'er is stupid, I don't understand the meaning, and I ask my grandmother to tell me." ”

Grandmother smiled again: "I never make a mistake in looking at people now, you, although naughty and lively, but there are really big things, but you are always the most serious, the most thoughtful person, and this quality, I found in the way I look at people, you are the only one, so I admire you very much, so that on the day of the wedding, I rushed to Xie Mansion, in order to see, do you have the motivation to achieve your goal desperately, as soon as I look at the cinnabar mole on your neck, I know that it is you, so that Xie Chen later told me that when you came to marry, Not only was I angry, but I was very happy, and I told that kid not to bully you or anything in the future. Haha, you girl, I grew up, I appreciate you as a person, and I appreciate your seriousness and unique ambition when you do things, in you, I see the shadow of myself back then, I can't say that it is particularly similar, it is exactly the same. Therefore, I will only be relieved if I hand over such a big burden as the housewife to you. ”
