Fair Lady

Murong Qing suddenly burst into tears.

Mrs. Ding San replied helplessly: "It is said that when I left Jujiu Palace that night, I fell on the ground and was scratched by the frozen mud. The doctor said that because the mud seeped into the flesh, the scar may be difficult to heal. Lose."

Xiao Ding was stunned, and murmured: "Fall on the ground? How did you fall on the ground? Qing'er, tell mother, who caused you to fall?"

Mrs. Ding San hesitated to speak.

Murong Zhi curled her lips: "How can she hear you so softly? The doctor said that her left ear is deaf, and now she can only hear with her right ear."

Xiao Ding staggered back and fell to the ground...

Mrs. Ding San murmured: "You were taken away that day, and Qing'er was crying and looking for you, but her aunt slapped her, and her hands became heavy when she was angry, her left ear was bleeding, and she fell to the ground and scratched her face again. , That's it... that's it. Don't worry too much, Dr. Gao has already returned to Beijing, and the Murong Mansion invited him to treat Qing'er and Zhi'er. However, Dr. Gao's appointments are full these days, and it will take eight days Fortunately, it was the old lady of Nangong Mansion who greeted Dr. Gao and said that it was Nangong Mansion who would treat Zhi’er, otherwise it might have been half a month later.”

Murong Zhi snorted coldly: "For myself to have another son, we all suffered miserably. Eldest brother is fine. Grandma said that when the new wife comes in, the elder brother will be passed under the new wife's name. Only me and Qing'er are the worst. , all the sins you committed have been repaid on us, are you satisfied now?"

During this period of time, Murong Zhi suffered all kinds of grievances, how could she still be the spoiled young lady of the Murong Mansion?

Lord Murong strictly ordered the two sisters to recuperate in their own yard, so please do not say goodbye.The New Year's Eve dinner is eaten by the sisters alone in their own yard.The servants in the mansion have always acted according to the direction of the wind. Now, even the lowest rough envoys and maids are afraid of being hit by her disaster, so they hide away.

Once when Murong Zhi was "asleep", she heard her mother chatting with the woman who brought food, saying that Xiao Ding first harmed Zhen Zirou, and then plotted against Zhen Zirou's children again and again, but the twins It is blessed, so Xiao Ding made it up.It all came down to her own two daughters.No one can smell the smell of the seven kudzu flower at all, but it happened to be so coincident with the "Chidan" of Empress Li, and even defeated the twin dragons in the empress' belly.

Murong Zhi thought about it, didn't she?Last time in Nangong Mansion, Niang and Aunt Yu asked someone to spray Fubao's favorite scent on Xia Shuyao's rose flower, but the flower ran onto her body.This is not what is retribution?

Murong Zhi's words and Murong Qing's crying were like countless needles piercing Xiao Ding's heart, Xiao Ding's eyes were blank, she didn't know what she was thinking, she didn't speak, and she didn't coax the weeping Murong Qing.

When the Ding family saw her like this, they didn't say much.After a few words of relief, he left, Xiao Ding committed a big royal taboo.How can they behave "reluctantly"?Accidentally being covered with a hat of "collaborating with the remnants of the previous dynasty", there is no place to cry.If it wasn't for the emperor's special statement of "allowing the Ding family to visit", they would not even dare to come.

Before leaving, Ding Sanye stuffed a full purse to the jailer, so that Xiao Ding could live better in the last half month and have a good meal the night before beheading.

Until everyone was gone, the prison head locked the door of the felon's cell with a bang.Xiao Ding covered her face with her hands and burst into tears.

She still lost, completely lost.Going down to the ground, Yen Zirou doesn't even bother to fight her anymore, does she?

She kicked Zhen Zirou out of Murong Mansion and became Mrs. Murong herself, but Murong Ziye, who used to disdain Zhen Zirou, began to miss Zhen Zirou, and once got drunk and lay on her body and called "Rou'er".

She encouraged Murong Ziye to kill Zhen Zirou, but she only lived three or four years longer.Yen Zirou was "heartbroken, and followed her late husband to die of illness", but she committed a capital crime and died without a whole body. She doesn't know if anyone will dare to pay homage to her in the future.

Now the life of Zhen Zirou's children is getting better and better, and there are more and more nobles, even the empress dowager looks at them differently.And her son didn't even look at her for the last time, and would recognize another woman as his mother in the future.The two daughters are under the age of ten, both of them are disfigured, one has the reputation of "disaster", and the other is half-deaf, and with her mother who committed a capital crime, Xiao Ding can already imagine their miserable future. day.

retribution?Is it really retribution?

Xiao Ding suddenly laughed "cheecheche" and touched a silver hairpin from her head, which Mrs. Ding San had just inserted into her bun.

When she was dragged in on New Year's Eve, all the valuable jewelry and hair pins on her body were pulled out, so she could only hold the hair pins with a bamboo chopstick.

Just now the third lady asked the jailer to allow Xiao Ding to wear this silver hairpin to the execution ground, so that she could die a "decent and good-looking" death.Holding the weight of the purse in his hand, the cell boss agreed without hesitation.No matter what, the Ding family is also an official family, so they still have to give such a little face, and it is not easy to offend and hate.

"Retribution, retribution" Xiao Ding murmured, "Yen Zirou, I give you my life back, please let my two daughters go."

……

That evening, when the cell boss sent someone to deliver the food, Xiao Ding was already in a pool of blood and died long ago.

Waiting to die is a very torturous thing, so in the large prisons of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, especially in the cells of felons, countless people committed suicide before being beheaded.At the moment, he just curled his lips and reported it to the higher authorities. After the person in charge of Xiao Ding's case came to check it, he swept it with a piece of broken grass and threw it directly to the mass grave.

The Ding family members who received the letter let out a long sigh of relief. They didn't want to wait until Xiao Ding was taken to the execution ground and beheaded in full view.

The chief steward of Ding's mansion found two rough envoys, gave them ten taels of silver, and simply buried Xiao Ding's family in the dark, without even putting up a wooden sign.

The Ding family buried it secretly, but the Xia Mansion in Yulin Town dug it secretly.

On the first day of the first lunar month, they found Hongmei and Daxin Dental Shop, formally completed all the formalities, and took over the small courtyard on Xitang Street.I was so excited that I wished I could pick up the hoe and dig.

Helplessly, the custom in Dazhou is to not move the soil on the first day of the first lunar month (from the first day to the ninth day of the new year), and they can't just dig in the utility room, for fear of being suspected of something.

It lasted until the tenth day of the first lunar month, that is, today, early in the morning, Brother Xia Linyu set up an incense burner in the small courtyard to worship the Lord of the Land, and then began to carry out all-round and large-scale repairs to the small courtyard. Feng Shui map re-layout.

Aunt Li next door rolled her eyes in disdain. Since the Feng Shui of this yard is said to be good, it is natural that the original layout of Xia Tuotou and his wife was well planned, but now it is destroyed.

But the yard belongs to someone else, so it doesn't matter if the Feng Shui is good or not, as long as they don't dig into the next door, Uncle Li and Aunt Li don't have to deal with people in Xiafu.

The neighbors had the same idea as Uncle Li and Aunt Li, but no one came to watch, which relieved the people in the Xia Mansion, who were still thinking about how to drive them away.

After the ground was broken, the first target was naturally the sundry room. Xia Linyu and his brothers stood by and dug out the baskets of soil. Their hearts could hardly bear the excitement and excitement, and they waited for the hoe to come out. The sound of hitting something hard.Finally heard the sound of "Ding Dong", directing a few people to carefully hoe the soil around the thing, but it turned out to be a huge stone mill.

……

From Chenshi to Youshi, in the past five hours, the depth and size of two or three cellars have been dug out. Not to mention the two large boxes of silver and medicinal materials, not even a single piece of silver has been seen.All the soil that was dug out was carefully inspected by the confidant servant, for fear that there might be blackened silver bumps mixed in it, but unfortunately, besides the soil, it is still the soil, the most standard soil...

Seeing the baskets of mud heads lifted out of the closed yard, occasionally a neighbor laughed and said, "Isn't Xia's mansion digging a well? There is a well in the yard."

Finally, brother Xia Linyu was paralyzed. Was their work in vain again?

What about the white silver?What about precious medicinal materials?Poached by Shujie?impossible!I heard that when they built the utility room, they directly filled in the original cellar for safety, so they built it so quickly.And if two heavy boxes were dug out, how could there be no sound, no movement at all?Besides, if they had those two boxes, where would they need to sell tofu?Everyone knows that when he first started to make a tofu stall, Shujie had to work hard every morning to deliver tofu.

Ever since Shuqing reminded that the silver would not be burned, the brothers had been keeping a close eye on the small courtyard, but they never found any sign of "breaking ground".

The biggest possibility is that there has never been any silver or medicinal materials in this cellar.Thinking back, from the beginning, everyone was guessing, and no one could be sure that Yao Qianguan had indeed given Xia Linxuan a box of silver and a box of medicinal materials back then. Everyone guessed.

If Zhen's family hadn't rushed to Yulin, Brother Xia Linyu would not have believed that there were two boxes of things in the cellar.

The Zhen family?Brother Xia Linyu suddenly thought that there was another possibility, that the Zhen family had moved the two boxes of things a long time ago, and then intentionally feinted at them for fear that they would go to court.

That's right, that's it, the two of them finally figured it out, but it's too late, they are only relatives with Xia Linxuan's branch, so why bother with the Zhen family?And after such a long time, what evidence is there?

Remorseful, annoyed, and at a loss, Brother Xia Linyu returned to Xia Mansion dejectedly. They were almost unable to make ends meet, and they had to sell most of the servants.

They have nothing left to sell except servants and a small village that provides food for the family...

Mrs. Xia couldn't help being disappointed when she saw her two sons coming back weakly.She closed her eyes: Are her sons and grandsons really inferior to the humble sons and grandsons?She really shouldn't have let Xia Linxuan go out!
