Chapter 39: Ancestor Worship!

Zhong Zihong took in her every move, and said in a deep voice, "Don't make trouble by yelling and screaming after coming in, no aunt should be." As soon as he finished speaking, he turned his head away from her.

Seeing Zhong Zihong's attitude, Lin Yue couldn't help but feel a little jealous in her heart, but she thought that Zhong Li would be swept out of the house soon, so she suppressed that trace of jealousy. pushed Zhong Qinghe in front of Zhong Zihong, and gave her a look from time to time, asking her to find an opportunity to put Zhong Li again.

"The ancestors and the ancestors are above, and the unfilial son Zhong Zihong brought his son-in-law Zhong Xiao, his daughter-in-law Zhong Li, his concubine Lin and his concubine Qinghe to worship. Zhong Zihong lit three incense sticks and kowtowed respectfully, "Zihong has been stationed at the border for many years, and has not been able to worship his ancestors. "Lead the people to kowtow and salute the incense.

Zhong Li knelt on the ground, silent in her heart for a long time, after two lifetimes, she didn't know how to describe her current mood. Not only did he empathize with him, but he also knew the consciousness of the original owner, and a sore heart filled with a cone in his heart, "Zhong Li, don't worry, I didn't have the slightest consciousness of you in my previous life, and although my life was wonderful, it ended up in a bleak end." Heaven has given me another chance to live, and has accepted your consciousness even more, what you have not been able to do, I swear that I will do what you wish in this life, not only for you but also for me and the unborn child. She solemnly put on a bouquet of incense, looked at the ranking in the ancestral hall, and couldn't help but wonder.

"Li'er, what are you looking at?" Zhong Xiao saw that her mood was not quite right, and asked worriedly.

Zhong Li came back to his senses and quickly wiped the tears from his cheeks, "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't been here for many years, and I didn't think there were so many changes here." As she spoke, she slowly walked to the offering table, added three glasses of wine to the ancestor, and looked at the ranking in front of her in surprise, "I just know why there is no grandmother and mother in the ranking?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhong Zihong was shocked, and then he noticed that there was indeed no spiritual seat of his mother and beloved wife Feng Tianxue in the tablet.

"What's going on at this time!" Zhong Zihong stepped forward angrily and grabbed Lin Yue's hand, looked at her angrily and asked, "You say, why is there no old lady and lady's spiritual seat in the tablet." Say......! How are you going to explain this!"

The sudden questioning caught Lin Yue off guard, and she stood up, "Master......! I don't know...... I don't know. Before she finished her words, she received a solid slap from Zhong Zihong.

"Ah~!" Lin Yue screamed, fell to the ground, and her hair was scattered, "Master, please listen to the concubine's explanation." The old man ......" she lay on the ground and grabbed the hem of Zhong Zihong's clothes and begged, "The concubine is ...... The concubine really doesn't know, she has always been good before, and the concubine is wronged...... Concubinage...... Let's check it out. ”

Zhong Qinghe stood aside, trembling and watching all this. These days, Zhong Zihong has rarely treated their mother and daughter kindly, which has made Zhong Qinghe feel dissatisfied in his heart, "Father, you can't blame your mother so much, your mother has never made a mistake in taking charge of the affairs of the house, but during this time, it is not the mother who has been asking about the affairs of the house, how can she be completely blamed for this now." There was nothing wrong with what she said.

Lin Yue stood up, and when she heard Zhong Qinghe say this, she immediately covered her mouth in horror, and looked at Zhong Li with a shocked face, "Don't worry, master! Qinghe is still a child, and if she misses her words, the concubine will go to investigate." Then she pulled Qinghe to the back hall, and called anxiously, "The housekeeper is not here, come over quickly, I have something to ask you." ”

Zhong Xiao walked to Zhong Li's side quietly and asked in a low voice, "What are your plans, now let's simply listen to it, I can also be prepared." ”

"Brother, do you think she will give up like this?" Zhong Li did not answer his question, but asked with a faint smile.

Zhong Xiao tilted his head slightly and observed, "You mean to say that they will make a fuss about the tablet." It will be even more blamed on ......"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhong Li, "Brother, it's better not to break some things, isn't it better for us to watch the play?"

Not long after, Lin Yue walked out of the back hall with a mother-in-law, and when she passed by Zhong Li's side, she snorted heavily and came to Zhong Zihong's face, "Master, the mother-in-law who takes care of the ancestral hall has found it, which can prove that the matter of the tablet has nothing to do with the concubine, and the concubine has really set up a spiritual position for the old lady and the lady." As she spoke, she pushed a mother-in-law in a dark blue cloth jacket down in front of Zhong Zihong.

"Old slave Xu, I've seen the master. The mother-in-law in a dark blue cloth jacket knelt on the ground, bowed her head and kowtowed respectfully, and then looked at Zhong Li, who was standing silent, "Miss Yan is also here, the old slave has seen Miss, Miss has entrusted the old slave has been done, please rest assured Miss ......" The words were full of flattery, but halfway through the words, she immediately kowtowed in horror, "Miss atoned for her sins, Miss told the old slave, the old slave forgot for a while, and ruined the big thing of the young lady, and asked the young lady to bypass the old slave and the old slave's family." ”

As soon as these words came out, the ancestral hall was like water entering hot oil for a while, and the ancestral hall, which was originally silent, suddenly exploded. looked at the mother-in-law who was kneeling on the ground and claimed to be Xu's, looking at Zhong Li with a frightened face, and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, which couldn't help but make people wonder. Thinking about it before, Zhong Li mentioned that he had not seen the old lady and his wife's spiritual position, which inevitably made people wonder, and even suspected that Zhong Li had deliberately done this.

"Master, the old slave didn't mean it, ask the master to be clear. Seeing that Zhong Li didn't pay attention to her pleas for mercy, Xu immediately turned his head and kept begging Zhong Zihong, "Master, today's matter is really not about the old slave, everything is sent by the young lady and ordered the old slave to do it...... , begging the old man to save the old slave and the old slave's family. ”

Xu's words and deeds did not seem to be adulterated at all, and everyone looked sideways at Zhong Li, and the original whispers gradually became louder, and everyone's statements were different.

Zhong Zihong's puzzled gaze swept towards Zhong Li, constantly looking, as if waiting for her explanation. But Zhong Li looked like he didn't care about himself, and he couldn't help but wonder, "Li'er, is this really designed by you?"

"My father thinks yes, and my father thinks it's not. Zhong Li didn't answer his question directly, said lightly, then stopped talking, and quietly looked at Xu Shi who was kneeling on the ground trembling for a long time, and then gently moved the lotus step around her and walked to the other side, took out the silk handkerchief in his sleeve, wiped it lightly in the corner of the spirit case, and handed the silk handkerchief to the cuckoo beside him.

"Miss Yan, what are you doing here?" Lin Yue stared at Zhong Li's every move from beginning to end, and when she saw her caressing the corner of the spirit case with a silk handkerchief, she was puzzled, for fear that she would find an excuse to get out, so she immediately asked.

Zhong Li turned around, and looked at the sunlight outside the courtyard with his eyes slightly closed, "Auntie didn't see it, I just saw some dust on the spirit case, so I took a silk handkerchief and wiped it off." Saying that, the corners of her mouth curled slightly, sighed, and said a little helplessly, "I think we are in a hurry, although we have sprinkled and cleaned the arrangement, but there are still some omissions, do you say it is Mama Xu?"

"Old slave...... The old slave ......" Xu didn't expect Zhong Li to suddenly ask her, and for a while she didn't know what to do, the old slave gritted her teeth and replied, "The old slave doesn't know what Miss Yan means......?"

"The old slave was ...... No...... was summoned by Aunt Lin to reply," the husband word came out, she suddenly realized her mistake, and immediately changed her words and continued, "It was said that the old man asked the old lady and the lady's spiritual position disappeared. The old slave was strange at the time, it wasn't Miss Yan who moved someone to take away the spiritual position of the old lady and the lady, and said that she would be enshrined in the ancestral hall after today, but how could it be now...... , and the young lady asked the old slave about the omission, if the old slave was angry with the old slave about this matter, then the old slave would admit it. ”

She said it with a straight face, and she looked like she was bent on dying. When people who don't know the inside story hear this, they must think that Zhong Li can't be framed, and they want to find a way to get rid of the mother-in-law in front of him who leaked her mouth because she was afraid of death. And the mother-in-law obviously didn't want to do this evil thing, but the appearance of the family being coerced and involuntarily confirmed Zhong Li's image of being a hypocrite and vicious and a femme fatale.

"Oh my God, I didn't expect Miss Chang to be such a person......

"On weekdays, she was lenient to her subordinates in the house, but it turned out that she was buying people's hearts, letting people do evil for her, and persecuting her aunt and sister-in-law!"

"Who said no, you forgot months ago...... , Aunt and Miss Shu are claustrophobic in the courtyard......"

"Yes, I also listened, and there was crying in the middle of the night in the hospital where my aunt was hospitalized......

"The lord is honored, and the emperor decrees marriage, but Miss Yan and the prince of Ling Wang have been very close in the past,...... Miss Shu has admired King Ling for a long time, but the prince of King Ling ...... Miss Shu"

"Don't chew your tongue, Miss Yan is an upright person, don't you remember what happened to the assassin?" The soldiers suffered heavy casualties, Miss Yan can mourn in person, and the injured have been treated by the Hundred Miles Divine Doctor......

Soon after the death of the lady, the aunt was dissatisfied with the old lady and Miss Yan, and forced the old lady to leave the house and live in the grange, the courtyard where the young lady lived belonged to the first lady, and there was a holy decree that she should not enter and leave at will, but the old lady left ......

"I also remember that at that time, when the first lady was married, and when the old lady got married, the jewelry given by the emperor was ......" Various voices came and went, and the subordinates argued.

Zhong Zihong listened to those remarks, annoyed, the hand hanging beside him gradually tightened, his fists made a gurgling sound, his calm face was already as dark as ink, and his body exuded a suffocating low pressure, "Enough, shut up for me!"

Like the sound of a bell, the originally noisy ancestral hall instantly quieted down, and the people below were silent one by one. Lin Yue and Zhong Qinghe, who were originally proud, also came back to their senses, restrained their wanton smiles, and put on a look of grievance. Looking at the Xu family, who was talking about the Tao just now, he was already sitting on the ground, and he didn't dare to breathe.
