green bamboo dream

Chapter 255 Female Praying Mantis

"Second Master..." With a cry of grief, Qiu Wentuo knelt down at Cheng Xunxun's feet precariously like a leaf fluttering in the wind.

Yuzhu looked at the nose and the heart, and sat on the sidelines—it would be better for her to be a listener at this moment.

Cheng Xunxun glanced across Qiu Wen's face, his expression relaxed, "Get up and answer."

But Qiuwen didn't get up, and even walked a few steps on Cheng Xunxun's knee, crying: "I'm afraid that the elder brother of the slave girl will not succeed..."

Cheng Xunxun didn't say a word, but let the tears of Qiu Wen soak the hem of his robe, and smudge a large dark ink blue on the royal blue satin fabric.

For a moment, needles could be heard in the room, only Qiuwen's hoarse cry and a few vague words could be heard.

Yu Zhu listened quietly, but her eyes turned to the silent man.

—what would he do?

After half a cup of tea, the crying gradually weakened, leaving only bursts of sobbing from time to time.

Cheng Xunxun was about to speak, but a woman came in and reported: "The lotus is here."

Then a woman with a smoky-colored embroidered waist and back collared a long coat came in with her head bowed. She was thin and thin, although her facial features were not outstanding, her complexion was extremely white, and her whole body was as clear as a porcelain doll.

"Greetings to the second master and wife." He Hua knelt down cautiously.

Mother Ruan got a signal, and asked, "Hehua, I have something to ask you, you have to answer truthfully."

"Yes." He Hua said respectfully, her chin slightly lifted, but her eyes were still fixed on a small spot in front of her knees.

"I heard that you usually serve alone by the bed. How hard is it to take care of the sick?" Mother Ruan's voice was very gentle: "What are your mistress and your man's old lady doing?"

A trace of panic flashed in He Huaxiuzhi's eyes, and she said in embarrassment: "It's not just mine, the mistress also takes care of it..."

"Don't help them hide it. There are so many maids in the yard who have never seen Mrs. Li and Mrs. Hua enter the house. If they haven't entered the house, how can they take care of them?" Mother Ruan said unhurriedly: "Mr. The son-in-law is seriously ill, but the wife that the media is marrying does not stay close to him, but hides from a distance, so he behaves like this, even if he divorces, it is not too much."

But He Hua didn't realize it, she just kowtowed repeatedly and insisted: "Don't dare to lie to the master, the mistress really took care of her..."

Yu Zhu looked at her expression carefully, and was surprised that she didn't waver at all, and couldn't help but wonder: Is there really such a law-abiding person?

"Do you know why Shanchang's condition deteriorated so badly?" Cheng Xunxun said suddenly after being quiet for a while.

"No... I don't know." He Hua hesitated for a moment, "Perhaps it's because he is too sick, and the medicine stone doesn't work."

The implication is—it has nothing to do with anyone, it's just that God doesn't have eyes.

Qiuwen finally stopped her sobbing completely, took out her handkerchief to wipe away the tears on her face, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Hehua, what happened to brother when you came?"

Being carried out in a coma, it can be seen how bad the situation is... She is very scared now, afraid that she will hear bad news in the next moment.

"Still asleep, almost the same as when I went out." He Hua replied in a low voice, pulling her sleeve unconsciously with her right hand, "The mistress is waiting by the side, and asked me to come in and answer well. The master also said to beg the master , so that my aunt can go to see her for the last time."

Only then did Qiuwen take a breath, and quietly knelt at Cheng Xunxun's feet.

Yuzhu guessed in his heart, from what he meant, Qiuwen's family didn't know that Shanchang's rapid deterioration was caused by stopping the medicine, otherwise they wouldn't be so peaceful.

In this way, the attitude of the lotus is worth pondering. Ruan's mother's words just hinted at such a level, which normal concubine who is bullied by the big woman all day does not want to be corrected?

She didn't move at all.

It is a fact that Li Shi did not take care of his seriously ill husband and son-in-law. There are many maids and wives who can prove it. She can vent her anger without making up excuses. Why bother to lie and insist that Li Shi participated in the care?

Unless she has any reason that cannot be resorted to.

"You lie in front of me, but do you know what the consequences are?" Cheng Xunxun's face was as deep as water, his eyes were as sharp as ice, and he drew on the lotus like a sword, which was icy cold.

He spoke this sentence very slowly, almost every word, with an unusually calm tone, but Yu Zhu knew that he was really angry...

"Second Master..." Second Master, what does this mean? How could Lotus lie?The most honest and taciturn person.Qiuwen murmured tremblingly, "Did you make a mistake, what a lie..."

"You go down first." Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Cheng Xunxun's forceful voice, and the man frowned slightly: "If you are really worried, you can go out of the house for a while."

Sure enough, they lost a little bit of knowledge, and they are still making noise.

Qiuwen had no choice but to get up from the ground with her hands on the ground, and staggered back, not daring to disobey at all.

The sky is getting gloomy, the light snow is turning heavy, and the snowflakes are blowing up like flakes. The cold wind carries the snowflakes straight into people's necks, and the women in the building are roasting and drinking tea, talking and laughing while pointing here.

Qiu Wen wrapped her cloak tightly, shrunk her body and walked into the wind and snow.

In front of an ordinary house, a small carriage with a flat roof and green mantle slowly parked, the curtain was lifted, and a petite figure stepped out.

Hua wrapped her hands in the sleeves of a thick gray cloth collared jacket, and when she saw Qiuwen get off the car, she hurriedly pulled her daughter, "You really came out, Amitabha..."

While pulling Qiuwen to run into the house.

As soon as the door was opened, a strange smell of steam came oncoming, like the smell of rotten and rancid meat, and finally added the smell of a mixture of strong spices.Caught off guard and choked, Qiu Wen almost didn't pass.

"What evil did I do in my previous life? Why did I get retribution on your elder brother?" Hua's tears fell again, "Look, how ill I have become. My poor boss..."

Li Shi had just vomited just now, her face was pale, she was drinking tea from a teacup to rinse her mouth, when she heard this, her mouth moved and she also wiped away her tears.

"That's enough, this man hasn't died yet, why are you crying?" Qiuwen's father frowned into a pimple, and said in a rough voice, "Da Nier, come out with me."

Qiu Wen looked at the shapeless elder brother on the bed, feeling extremely sour, stepped forward to help him tuck the quilt carefully, and then walked out with his father.

Seeing the two of them going out, Mrs. Li turned her worried eyes to Mrs. Hua, "Mother, what do you think He Hua is being called to do now?"

Although she is lazy, she is really timid.

"What, what, how do I know?" Hua said angrily, "If my man doesn't take good care of him, he deserves to be divorced."

Back then, she shouldn't have coveted Li's dowry and married such a lazy woman for her son.

Not only is she delicious and lazy, she is also extremely thick-skinned, no matter how you scold her, she looks like a reckless person...

Righteousness had a pain in her ribs, and suddenly she heard her son on the bed groaning in pain, she was startled, pinched her nose and moved forward, only took one step, the door creaked, and a gust of cold wind rushed in.

Qiuwen walked in with a pale face, her almond eyes were quiet, as if she hadn't recovered from a certain emotion.

But at this time, Mrs. Hua couldn't care less about her daughter, because seeing her son struggling hard, his whole body was convulsed violently, and his scorched black and thin face was in extreme pain.

"Son, what's wrong with you... don't scare mother." Huashi cried out in fright, shaking her hands to check.

I don't know if it's emotional or smelly, just as the quilt was lifted by a corner, Hua rolled his eyes and fell limply on the footrest.

When she woke up, her daughter was nowhere to be seen, while her son was already wrapped in a quilt and laid quietly on the bed.

Li's eyes were as red and swollen as walnuts from crying, and he cried intermittently: "Mother, my husband's clothes... are not easy to wear, and his body is rotten, and a piece of flesh will be torn off as soon as the inner clothes are taken off... There is no other way, so I have to use Wrapped up in a quilt."

After hearing this, Hua Shi screamed heart-piercingly, and passed out again...

In the Qingyuan courtyard, Lianhua was being dragged out with her whole body limp.

Cheng Xunxun's face was ashen, and he slapped the huanghuali single-plate cloud-patterned tooth-headed table with a palm. A bunch of lotus and ten thousand seed-patterned teacups on the table jumped, and then tilted the lid in embarrassment.

"It's really deceiving people too much." He straightened up suddenly, and Cheng Xunxun walked back and forth in the room for a few steps, his brows and eyes were dark, obviously the remaining anger was still there.

Yu Zhu tilted her head and approached the man, pulled his sleeve and laughed.

"You short-sighted person, you are still laughing after being calculated by others." Cheng Xunxun didn't hold back after all, stared at her, and pinched her face lightly, "That woman is really careless, but did she still bully you before?"

Yu Zhu let him pinch her face with a smile, and raised her chin in a very airy way: "No, this time is just a coincidence, you know? Besides, no matter how smart I am, I never thought that the lotus flower was forcibly taken by Brother Qiuwen." ?”

It turns out that Qiuwen's elder brother Shanchang has become more and more a figure of himself since he was dragged up, and he has also become a playboy. He spent a few taels of silver and forcibly bought a woman to be a concubine. publicity.

Lotus originally had a lover who was like-minded, but after being accepted by the good man, she felt resentful and resentful, but unfortunately she was controlled very strictly by the mistress, and she always swallowed her anger and endured the day, pretending to be honest and obedient.

Later, Shanchang contracted a visceral disease, the condition got worse, and the stench was so bad that Mrs. Li and Mrs. Hua only fed medicines occasionally, and left the dirty work of scrubbing and applying medicines to her... Later, even feeding medicines was impossible. Very few.As a result, the flames of hatred buried under the hot carbon in her heart gradually rose...

Anyway, no one else knew, so the medicine was poured into the flower pot, and the scrubbing ointment was poured into the dirty water basin... Who would blame her?

It's ridiculous that Shan Chang didn't know until he died, but it turned out that his docile and well-behaved concubine built him a death ladder...

Yu Zhu couldn't help but think that the female mantis will eat the male mantis after the mantis is finished.Sometimes a woman is very similar to a female praying mantis, if her heart becomes ruthless, it will only be a moment of thought.
