Chapter 141: Because of morality
Following the steward, he walked through a long corridor, and soon, Shen Yun saw a hanging flower door with red paint and green tiles.
The steward took the bowl and walked straight in.
Where is this? Do you want to follow up? Shen Yun hesitated.
"Hey, little lock, you're here! great!" While running, he said quickly in his mouth, "Good little lock, my brother has a stomach trouble today, you help go to the top of your head for a long time." When I turn around, my brother invites you to eat and drink. ”
Shen Yun had no choice but to pretend to be a small lock.
The little servant led him through a small garden, and then ran to the back of a big house with flying eaves and arches, and his stomach "gurgled".
"Ouch, no!" the little guy clutched his stomach, turned around and ran back, "Little lock, thank you......"
Shen Yun lowered the brim of his hat, took a deep breath, and walked around to the front of the big house through the verandah.
"Dangchang", there was a sound of throwing bowls in the main room. Immediately afterwards, a dignified old man shouted: "The eldest son of the dignified son marries the daughter of our family's slave as his wife, you are really a good father!"
Shen Yun was secretly happy in his heart - there was nowhere to find him when he stepped on the iron shoes! Needless to say, this person must be Mrs. Yuan of Yuan Bancheng! Hearing the meaning, he was scolding Master Yuan.
Without hesitation, he stood under the porch, pretending to be on duty, but in fact he sounded like a corner.
That's right, the two people in the house are the father and son of Old Lady Yuan and Master Yuan.
Master Yuan's left hand was hanging from a bandage, and he stood in front of the long case with his head wilted, and retorted weakly: "That waste ......"
"Rubbish?" Old Lady Yuan, who was sitting behind the long case, sneered, "You are a genius." It's a pity that he was beaten by a waste who has been studying martial arts for less than half a year and has no power to fight back! Hehe, I was wrong. The waste in your mouth is one against three! You three geniuses have joined forces, and you have not been able to make ten moves under his hands. The wounded of the wounded, the disabled of the disabled. One by one, they are really 'talented'!"
Master Yuan closed his mouth and didn't dare to say anything more.
Old lady Yuan stood up, slowly paced to the eldest son, and stood still: "Oh, I forgot to tell you a message. I just sent it from the Immortal Mansion. Feng'er's third game was sentenced to the second class. If it weren't for what happened a few days ago, as soon as the results were announced tomorrow, he would be a junior martial artist. ”
"How could it be ......" Master Yuan raised his head in astonishment, unable to believe his ears.
Old Lady Yuan put her hands behind her back and spit out a breath of turbidity: "To be honest, I didn't expect that rotten wood can also be made into wood." He glanced at his eldest son and chuckled, "Speaking of which, you are much luckier than I am." ”
"What?" His words beat so fast that Master Yuan couldn't keep up at all.
Old lady Yuan pouted: "I mean, you have a good son who can support the door! As he spoke, he snapped his fingers and counted them one by one, "Look, in the first case, your eldest son has only been studying martial arts for half a year, and he has won in one fell swoop, but what about my eldest son?
Master Yuan blushed in shame.
However, Old Lady Yuan didn't intend to let him go at all, and continued to break his fingers, "The second case, your eldest son has grown so big, do you want to worry a little? For so many years, people have your father, it is better not to have it! People have won it in one fell swoop without making a noise! But what about me? In order to cultivate you, Lao Tzu simply broke his heart and used how many resources? As a result, in the end, except for forcing your wife to death, you have never seen you do a major event that caused a sensation in the whole city. ”
"Also, your eldest son dared to kill his father with a sword in order to seek justice for his mother. Do you dare?Did you make a head for your mother when she was alive?" Old Lady Yuan sneered, "I hope you can have this kind of heart." Even if you have a little bit of such energy, I would have handed over the family business to you a long time ago. ”
"It's a pity, you are bent on death, and you are willing to be cheap. Don't want the right wife, and don't want the sister-in-law who can support the door, but you want to treat a slave as a treasure. Seeing you licking your face and socializing everywhere with the cheap seeds born by those minions, I'm embarrassed to tell people that you are my son!"
"Father, I ......" Master Yuan was shocked, "plopped" and knelt down, holding one of Mrs. Yuan's legs with his uninjured right hand, and cried loudly, "My son is wrong......
"You said you're wrong?" Old Lady Yuan looked down at him, the expression on his face was extremely complicated.
"Yes, father, the son knows that he is wrong. Master Yuan said repeatedly, "My son was fascinated by that slut...... That's right, it's the slut who picks up the discord, causing discord between our husband and wife, and the father and son turning against each other. Speaking of this, there was ruthlessness in his eyes, "I'm going to kill her!"
Old Lady Yuan closed her eyes, two huge tears slipped from the corners of her eyes, and said in a dumb voice: "It turns out that I was also wrong." ”
"Huh?" Master Yuan was puzzled.
"De'er, over the years, you have always pampered Yuegui, I always thought that you were affectionate, in order to live up to your childhood sweetheart's lover, you did not hesitate to ignore the strong help of your wife...... This kind of you, at least affectionate and righteous, is better than your brothers who fight like black corns. It's not okay to start a business, but it can be kept. Old lady Yuan smiled bitterly, "It's a pity, I was wrong." ”
Master Yuan heard the meaning of his words, and his eyes were full of panic and uneasiness.
Sure enough, next, the words that Old Lady Yuan spit out became colder and harder every sentence, as if he was instantly beaten into the abyss:
"You are obviously selfish, inferior but conceited to the extreme, profit makes you stupid, stupid!"
"If my big family business is handed over to you, it won't take a few years for me to be defeated by you fool to the point that there is not even any scum left. ”
Old lady Yuan said, lifted his legs, and threw him to the ground, "If you know your mistakes, you have to change them, I ......"
"Father!" Master Yuan lay on the ground, screaming and begging, "Give me another chance!" Please, I was wrong, I will change, I will change." Please look at Feng'er's face and spare me this time. ”
Father and son for decades, he understands Old Lady Yuan's heart very well. Hearing the last sentence, Old Lady Yuan's face finally showed hesitation.
At that moment, a man in black walked in briskly from outside the door.
"Master. He didn't even give Master Yuan a look, he walked straight to Old Master Yuan and whispered.
While listening, Old Lady Yuan looked at Old Master Yuan, who was still lying on the ground, and his eyes became more and more unkind.
The latter couldn't help but tremble.
After the man in black finished speaking, he took a step back and lowered his hand.
"Okay, very good!" Old Lady Yuan narrowed her eyes, stared at her eldest son, and asked in a cold voice, "On the sixth night of the first month, you dispatched all the dead soldiers in the long house, yes or no?"
"Yes......" Master Yuan's face was like earth, and a bean-sized cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Old Lady Yuan asked again, "What are you sending them for?"
"I ......," Master Yuan didn't dare to answer.
Old Lady Yuan nodded again and again: "What a 'life or death'! Tiger poison does not eat children, that is your only son-in-law! Over the years, have your brothers caused fewer disasters? When did your father send dead soldiers, 'life and death' to hunt you down?"
"Father......" Master Yuan could only cry bitterly and make a statement of remorse.
Unfortunately, this time, this trick failed and no longer worked.
"Do you remember your seventh uncle?" Old Lady Yuan interrupted him with a wave of his hand. Returning to the back of the long case, the big knife sat down, looked at him, and suddenly his tone became calm again, "These days, I always dream of him at night. ”
Uncle Yuan, who was stunned on the ground with tears on his face, turned around in his head several times before he suddenly remembered who this was the sacred-there is indeed such a person on the family tree. He was the seventh brother of his father, and died when he was ten years old.
"In my dreams, he always told me that his knees were desolate,......" Old Lady Yuan whispered.
However, for Master Yuan, these words were tantamount to a thunderbolt above his head.
Sure enough, Old Lady Yuan continued: "Haven't you always disliked their mother and son, and you want to stay with Yuegui and them for a long time?" The laurel will also straighten you up. The seventh room of Yuan's family is a side branch. Yuegui's maiden family is a good citizen, and it makes sense to be a side branch housewife. Well, Mei's mother and son will also go with you. As for Feng'er's mother and son, they still stay in the long room and don't follow you. This time, the wife and concubine, the eldest son of the concubine, are all your favorites, you have to live a good life......"
"No! Father!" shouted Master Yuan in despair.
Old lady Yuan didn't look at him again, lowered her head to look through the account books in front of her, and said coldly: "Wrong, you will call me 'uncle' in the future." The Seventh Old Lady is your father. After that, he raised his voice and ordered, "Ah Yi, please ask the eldest master of the seventh room to go out." This is the long house, and in the future, don't let their family into the house without my instructions. ”
"Yes!" ordered the man in black, who had been standing with his hands down.
The freshly baked seven-room master still wanted to beg for it, but he ruthlessly clicked on the dumb hole, and then carried it out of the study like a chicken.
Shen Yun saw him carrying someone out of the door, and hurriedly lowered his head and stood straight, like a little guy on duty.
After Ah and the others left, there was no movement in the house for a long time. Shen Yun held his breath and quietly moved to the verandah, seeing that the old lady Yuan in the house still did not speak, he immediately smeared oil on the soles of his feet and slipped away from the original road.
The guard at the door in the left corner was replaced by two other people.
Shen Yun was wearing the clothes of a small house in the upper courtyard, and he was unimpeded.
When I returned to the small courtyard of the ancient family, the sun was already in the west. He hurriedly went to see Yuan Feng. The latter has woken up.
"I'm sorry, I went to your grandfather's house to deliver a letter, and I happened to run into the eldest master of Xianfu blocking the road and asking your uncles for questions. Shen Yun then said what happened to Master Yuan.
Yuan Feng smiled bitterly: "Hehe, Old Lady Yuan really took great pains to keep my reputation. It's a pity that I killed the Yuan family, and I never thought about going back to be the eldest grandson of the eldest grandson. Looking at Shen Yun, he said sincerely, "Brother Yun, you saved my life." After that, it's yours. I, Yuan Feng, obey your orders. ”
Shen Yun was stunned, and after coming back to his senses, he waved his hand again and again: "Brother Feng, you and my brother, if you say this, don't say it again in the future." Besides, I saved you and helped you because of morality. ”
That's right, it's because of morality!
On the way back, he thought so clearly for the first time:
When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help. Yuan Feng is not wrong to seek justice for his mother who was forced to die. He rescued Yuan Feng, full of brotherhood, and even more righteous heroes.
And the ten dead soldiers were ordered to kill people and act for the tiger, so they were killed, and it is not a pity to die.
This is what he understands as morality.
Therefore, if there is another chance to do it again, he will still use the contact letter to save Yuan Feng.
In this troubled world, I should do something, and I should not do something. And so it should be done in the future. Shen Yun said to himself.
