Zhangjia Jinzhi

Chapter 85
When Li Pu got the news, he hurried all the way to the mansion.

As soon as Fang entered, he met Li Yao who was guarding the door.

"Second brother!"

Li Yao cried and rushed forward, choked up and said:
"Second brother, why did you come back? Mother, her."

Li Pu held Li Yao in his arms, stroked her back, coaxed her a few words, and said:

"Don't cry, tell the second brother what's going on..."

Li Pu only heard that his mother had committed an affair with his uncle, but he didn't know the specific reason, so he dragged Li Yao to the inner room, and met Mrs. Zhao head-on.

"Uncle is back..."

Zhao's complexion was not very good, and she didn't care to avoid suspicion at this time, she glanced at the servants around her, and said slowly:
"Uncle and sister go to Qingluju and sit down, I have something to tell you."

Li Pu nodded, and led Li Yao and Mrs. Zhao back to the courtyard.

"Sister-in-law, what happened to my mother and uncle? Why did Jingzhao Mansion take it?"

"Where's my father? Where's my third uncle? Do they know?"

Li Pu was anxious in his heart, and asked out loudly.

Mrs. Zhao opened her mouth, looked at Li Yao with some embarrassment, and then gritted her teeth and told the whole story.

Li Pu froze when he heard the whole thing.

"You... you said my mother..."

Li Pu couldn't continue with the following words, his eyes were flushed red, and he waved his hands again and again as he watched Zhao's tearful acquiescence:
"No, no, no...my mother is not like that!"

"She is definitely not such a person! How could she..."

Li Yao stepped forward and held Li Pu's fingertips, crying:
"Second brother... what should we do... what should we do... what should mother do..."

Li Pushang couldn't recover, and stared at Li Yao in a daze, his face became paler.

Mrs. Zhao wiped away her tears and said with swollen eye sockets:
"Father and husband went to Jingzhao Mansion early in the morning, and haven't come back yet...Grandma also fell ill this morning, uncle, what should we do?"

Li Pu suddenly fell down on the stool, staring at Li Yao and Zhao Shi with a dazed expression, not returning to his senses for a long time.

He didn't want to believe it was true... Everyone in Shengjing City praised his mother for being obedient and gentle, how could she be such a miserable person...

no, I can not……

"Li Taiwei!"

Li Pu got up suddenly, and said with red eyes:

"I'm going to find my third sister! I'm going to ask my third aunt! They must have a way to save my mother..."

Li Yao also came back to her senses, she stepped forward and pulled Li Pu's sleeve, and said firmly:
"I'll go with you too! Let's kowtow to Third Aunt..."

Mrs. Zhao looked at the two brothers and sisters with some hesitation.She remembered the murderous look in Li Taiwei's eyes that looked at Bai Shi in Hua'an Hall in the morning, and couldn't help but clenched her handkerchief tightly...

"Ma'am, would you like to go with us?"

Li Yao looked at Zhao Shi, Weng said.

Mrs. Zhao collected herself and finally nodded.

..............................

Yunshui is in the house, and Li Taiwei is having dinner with Zhaohe.Zhaohe had no appetite, Li Taiwei persuaded her several times before she was willing to eat half a bowl of rice porridge.

After a while, the maidservant called out, saying that the second young master, the fourth young lady and the eldest young mistress had come together.

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Because of what happened to Mrs. Bai today, the people in the long room are now jealous of the second room, and the atmosphere suddenly becomes delicate.

Li Taiwei glanced at Zhaohe, and ordered outside:

"Please come in."

The three people from the second room entered the flower hall together, and knelt down facing the direction of Showa.

Zhaohe's heart was shocked, and he put one hand on his unobvious lower abdomen, finally sighed, and said:
"Everyone get up..."

"It's the adult's business...it's embarrassing for you children..."

"Mother Tian, ​​help them up."

Mother Tian responded, and before she was about to step forward, Li Pu kowtowed three times to Zhao He, and his forehead was instantly bruised.

"Auntie, please...help my mother..."

Li Yao also kowtowed to Zhaohe and said with tears:

"Third Aunt, my mother was deceived by lard to cause such a catastrophe... I beg you to remember the past love, hold your hands high, and let her go this time..."

Mrs. Zhao fell on the ground, unable to utter a word, and could only cry silently.

Li Yao and Li Pu grew up under the watchful eye of Zhaohe, and they are inseparable from each other.Seeing the two of them like this, Zhaohe felt sour and helpless, and his eyes were red when he saw the few people kneeling in front of him.

Li Taiwei got up, walked up to Li Pu, and personally reached out to help him up:
"Second Brother... Imperial Physician Fang is an official of the imperial court, and it is a matter of human life. Since this matter has reached Jingzhao Mansion, it is not for my mother to intervene at will..."

"But... but Jingzhao Mansion... is not in charge of the third uncle..."

"Second brother!"

Seeing that Li Pu still didn't give up, Li Taiwei finally got downcast. She stared at Li Pu, every word of her heart:
"Second brother, do you know what the purpose of the past life pearl is? If one is not careful today, my mother and the fetus in the womb will die at this time! At that time... will the second brother... in order to return my mother justice... kill my relatives righteously?"

Li Pu paused, looking at Li Taiwei with despair and sadness.

"lady!"

Hongzhu came in wiping her tears, glanced at the three people in the second room, kowtowed to Zhaohe, and said:
"Ma'am... Just now, Nanny Sun sent someone from Yongpingbo's mansion, saying... that the old man of the Bai family was in a hurry... It's gone..."

"what!"

Li Pu stepped forward and grabbed Hong Zhu's arm, and said with red eyes:

"What do you say about my grandfather?"

Hong Zhu covered her face and cried bitterly:

"Uncle Yongping's mansion is in a mess, the old lady told the second son to go and have a look, it's considered... to send the old man one last time..."

Amidst Li Yao's bitter cry, Li Pu slowly sat down.

"I want to see my mother..."

Li Pu clenched his fist tightly, holding back his tears and said:

"Yes! I'm going to see my mother...I'm going to ask her why this is so..."

After saying that, Li Pu got up suddenly and rushed out like an arrow.

"Hurry up! Get someone to follow the Second Young Master, don't make any mistakes!"

Seeing Li Pu's expression was wrong, Zhaohe panicked.

Hong Zhu's eyes flashed, and she hurriedly chased after her, and Li Yao also followed with her skirt lifted.

Li Taiwei looked at the backs of several people, and narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

..............................

In the prison of Jingzhao Mansion, Bai's face was haggard and her hair was disheveled. She had cried hard just now, and now she was lying motionless on the damp ground covered with hay, and her whole body looked like a broken string.

"Aunt—!"

Hearing this call, Bai's eyes rolled suddenly.She turned over, and sure enough, she saw Li Pu calling her with red eyes through the wooden fence.

Only then did Bai's eyes show a glimmer of light. She struggled to stand up, moved to Li Pu, and raised her hand to touch Li Pu's cheek.

"Auntie..."

The tears that Li Pu had suppressed for a long time welled up all at once, he stretched out his hand from the gap in the wooden fence, and hugged Bai Shi tightly in his arms, the tip of his nose still smelled like his mother, but things were different.

"Auntie... Is my son not good enough..."

Li Pu broke down in tears, crying like a helpless child, and repeated in his mouth:

"Is it because my son is not good enough... Mother... my son will be obedient in the future... Mother... my son will be obedient in the future..."

Bai's dry tears welled up again, she hugged Li Pu back forcefully, pressed her face against Li Pu's face, and shook her head desperately:
"No...no...my brother Pu is the best...it's not your fault...it's all Aniang's fault...it's Aniang's fault..."

Li Yao and Hongzhu came in on their heels, seeing Bai's ashen face, Li Yao couldn't hold back any longer, knelt in front of Bai, hugged her through the wooden railing, and burst into tears.

"Mother...I'm going to beg Third Uncle...I'm going to beg Your Majesty..."

Bai stretched out her other hand to hold her in her arms, looked deeply at Li Yao, and burst into tears:
"In the future... you must listen to your grandmother carefully so that you can marry a good family..."

Li Yao bit Chun and shook her head desperately:
"No... I just want my mother... I just want my mother..."

The mother and son cried together, and Bai's heart was broken into several petals.

After being urged several times by the jailer, the Li family brothers and sisters were willing to leave.

Hong Zhu stepped forward to kowtow to Bai Shi at last, and when she raised her eyes again, her eyes brightened.

"Madam, take care, the servant will take good care of the two masters for Madam."

Bai Shi suddenly stopped, and the last tear in her eyes finally fell.

　Oops, when I was writing a crying scene, my eyes were full of tears...
