Chapter 76: Sixty rods
Over the years, Wu Guoliang has been cautious and cautious as an official. Although the Wu family is a scholarly family, and several generations have been officials, but there are no big officials, he can achieve four grades, and he is already the biggest official of the Wu family.
He was able to achieve his current position, and marrying the daughter of the Zhang family as his wife was the main reason. Although the Zhang family is not very official in the court, the Zhang family has a great Confucian, the mountain chief of Shanglin Academy, which can be said to be full of peach and plums all over the world. It is precisely because of the connections of the Zhang family, coupled with his own drill camp, that he has today.
His wife-in-law is virtuous and obedient, and she puts him first in everything, except for her weak body, there is really nothing wrong with her. The daughter she gave birth to desperately, he always thought it was a good one, but he didn't expect it to be so vicious.
Feng told him before that Wu Jingshu was killed by Wu Jingyun, Wu Guoliang was in a hurry at the time, thinking that as long as the matter calmed down, no matter what grievances there were between their sisters, they were all at fault anyway. He didn't even think deeply.
But now I know that what happened to Wu Jingshu was caused by the daughter in front of her. Why? Wu Jingshu has such a thing, and she won't be good if it gets out! Why would she do such a hurtful thing to others and herself?
"You... Why are you doing that? Wu Guoliang's voice was shaking, he walked up to Wu Jingyun, squatted down and looked at her and asked puzzledly: "Although your biological mother died early, I think I have not treated you badly since I was a child." Yours... Your stepmother, although she wants to rob your family, you go home and tell me, I will naturally make decisions for you, how can you do such a thing? You won't know that once the matter is revealed, the daughters of our entire Wu family will suffer. Why the hell are you? ”
Wu Jingyun, who had lowered her head, raised it. She looked at Wu Guoliang mockingly and said, "You said you didn't treat me badly? Oh, what a joke. When I was eight years old, I was pushed into the lake by Wu Jingshu and almost drowned. After being rescued, I told you that I was pushed by Wu Jingshu, Wu Jingshu didn't admit it, although Feng said good things about me everywhere, but the meaning outside the words was that I was jealous of Wu Jingshu and framed Wu Jingshu. What happened? It's not like that's just the way it passed. ”
"When I was ten years old, I suffered from a cold and didn't get better after taking medicine for a month, do you know why?" Wu Jingyun laughed mockingly and said, "It was Feng who made people add cold things to my medicine. Because my illness has not been good, Feng Shi made it easy for me to recuperate in a quiet place, so he moved me to the remote and dilapidated courtyard where I am now. Later, Wu Jingshu moved into my original yard. ”
"This.... You didn't tell me this! Wu Guoliang looked embarrassed, he really didn't expect Feng to be so vicious.
Wu Jingyun laughed sarcastically again, "Father, did I not tell you, or did you not care at all?" ”
"This...."Wu Guoliang was speechless.
"There are so many things like this, my clothes, jewelry, and ornaments in the house look the same, but they are all picked by Wu Jingshu and Wu Jingya, and most of them are not suitable for me." Wu Jingyun said again.
At this time, Mrs. Zhang cried, pointed at Wu Guoliang and said, "You.... You don't deserve to be a father at all, why did I marry my daughter to you in the first place! ”
Zhang Wugongzi clenched his fists tightly hatefully, as if the next moment that fist would hit Wu Guoliang.
Tang Shuyi sighed heavily, she could guess that Wu Jingyun's usual life would not be easy, but when she really sounded, she knew that she was so difficult.
Xiao Yuchen was stunned, the backyard of the Hou Mansion was peaceful, he had heard that the women in the back house of some people fought fiercely, but today was the first time that he knew in such detail that the fight between the women in the back house was so ruthless.
Mrs. Zhang was already crying silently, and pulled Wu Jingyun to ask her why she didn't tell her before, but Wu Jingyun just shook her head. Tang Shuyi felt that it should be that Feng's work was not leaky, Wu Jingyun just said, and Feng also had a way to deal with it.
It's just that the Feng family is so powerful, and Wu Jingyun has suffered so much in her hands, why hasn't she learned a few tricks? Otherwise, when he fought with Liu Biqin in his previous life, he would not have lost so badly. But thinking about it again, Xiao Yuchen's heart is in Liu Biqin, and Wu Jingyun is useless even if he has a thousand means.
However, sympathy is sympathy, Wu Jingyun's experience was not caused by her, and Xiao Yuchen has already made him angry, and the grievances are over, and she has to say something.
Old Madam Zhang hugged Wu Jingyun and cried for a while, then got up and bowed deeply to Tang Shuyi, "Mrs. Hou, it was all Jingyun's fault before, and I admit my mistake on her behalf." But this time, it really has nothing to do with Jingyun, it was all done by this evil obstacle in my family. I'll give him to you, and you'll be at your mercy to fight and kill. ”
Mrs. Zhang really loves Wu Jingyun, but has Wu Jingyun thought about Mrs. Zhang and the Zhang family?
"Old lady, I didn't come today to ask the teacher for sin." Tang Shuyi said: "But if you do something wrong, you have to take responsibility." But how to punish, it's better for the old lady to come. ”
The old lady listened to her words, looked at Xiao Yuchen's pale face, and the large blood stains on her clothes, and her hands clenched into fists again. Closing her eyes, she shouted outside, "Mama Zhang." ”
A forty or fifty-year-old grandmother came in with a curtain, and Mrs. Zhang told her, "Go to the front yard and call Zhang Da Zhang Er over." ”
As he spoke, he looked at Zhang Wugongzi, and said in a resolute voice: "You have framed others for personal gain, and all these years of books have been read in vain." Sixty rods will give you a long memory. ”
"Old lady," as soon as Mrs. Zhang's voice fell, Mama Zhang knelt on the ground with a thud and said, "Old lady, that big Zhang Er has a lot of strength, and if these sixty boards go down, the fifth son must go to half his life." ”
"If he fights hard, he will have a long memory, so let's go." Mrs. Zhang said.
Mama Zhang could only stand up and go out to call someone, and when she saw the large patch of blood on Xiao Yuchen's body, she finally understood why Mrs. Zhang had such a heavy hand. Xiao Shizi, the bitter master, was so seriously injured, and the five sons of their family naturally couldn't be punished lightly.
Mama Zhang's hands and feet went out a little softly, and her heart was still complaining about Wu Jingyun, if it weren't for her, the fifth son would not have suffered such a big crime.
After a while, the two guards of the Zhang family, Zhang Da and Zhang Er, arrived, Zhang Wugongzi walked out with a sad face, and Wu Jingyun looked at his back and cried bitterly. After a while, there was the sound of the board hitting his body outside, as well as the muffled snort of Zhang Wugongzi.
Mrs. Zhang's hand has been held tightly, that is her most beloved grandson, how can she not feel distressed. But if he doesn't have a long memory this time, maybe there will be even more trouble next time.
