Chapter 564

Mrs. Gao originally had some thoughts in her mind, so she uttered aloud in a vain attempt to muddy the water, but she forgot that Jiang Yu also came out of Yingchuan with Mrs. Wu, and she knew as much about the events of the year as they did. Therefore, Mrs. Gao's words became self-inflicted humiliation.

The wife of the main room can take on the identity of the wife without showing her face; while Mrs. Gao was just a concubine back then, so she could not enjoy such courtesy.

Qin Su bent her eyebrows and smiled, and seemed to feel that the slap was not loud enough, so she turned to Zhou Yu to ask for confirmation: "When I was in Yingchuan, did the old patriarch really make such a rule?"

Zhou Yu's complexion was serious, she nodded, but did not speak.

In fact, there is really no need for her to say anything more, her meaning at this moment is already clear enough, and everyone is not blind, so they know that what Jiang Yu said is true.

However, if Jiang Yu is not talking nonsense, new problems will follow one after another.

With such strict rules, how could Mrs. Wu go to the back mountain?Isn't she afraid of being punished?

This was a question asked by most people in the room, and Qin Su knew it well, so she asked, "Jiang Yu, I would like to ask again, since the family rules are so strict, why can grandma go to the back mountain again?" ?”

Jiang Yu sighed silently, and said: "The madam went out for a reason, and she went out out of desperation. Originally, it was our fourth room's turn to do cleaning work that day, and my wife and I went to wash clothes by the well. However, the club fell into the well, and Madam was so anxious that she shed tears. The sixth lady probably didn't know that the patriarch of the Qin clan was a very...very strict person in the past, because of...some things, The head of the patriarch had some...slight remarks to his wife. The wife also said later that if the head of the patriarch found out about this, she would punish the women and children of the fourth house. The madam felt sorry for the aunt, so she said that she would go to the mountain to find a similar firewood to make up for."

The aunt she was talking about was Qin Su's aunt—Qin Shifang.

"So that's the case." Qin Su nodded, and then said puzzledly: "But why didn't grandma ask you to take the blame, or let you go to the mountain to find wood? Why did grandma go there by herself?"

Jiang Yu then said: "I want to teach Liu Niangzi to know that the patriarch set the rules back then: no matter if the servant or the master made a mistake, everyone in this room must be punished accordingly. In fact, it is the wife, maid and maid who are mainly punished." However, Mr. Lang can be exempted from punishment. Even if I take the blame for my wife, we will not be able to get away with this punishment, and my aunt will still starve. In addition, the cleaning work is also very heavy, in addition to washing clothes , but also to clean up internal and external sundries, scrub the floor, etc. Madam can’t do these tasks by herself, but I can do them faster with my hands and feet. Only in this way, I can’t accompany Madam to the mountains.”

Qin Su smiled when she heard the words: "So there is another reason. Then, did grandma bring the wood back from the mountain?"

"In the words of Mrs. Six, Madam came back empty-handed." Jiang Yu lowered her head, staring at the brick floor under her feet, her voice was very flat: "I remember very clearly that Madam sneaked out that day, and she didn't see her for a long time. When I came back, I was anxious and afraid, and I was still thinking about finishing the work. I was really anxious. Later, my wife finally came back, but my hands were empty. I asked her why she didn’t find any firewood, but she stared blankly. , and ignored me, her complexion was even paler, very ugly. I thought Madam was not feeling well, but I really couldn't let go of the work, so I dragged Madam to the well, and I asked Madam Something happened, but Madam suddenly picked out a washed skirt from the basin, saying that the skirt on her body was too dirty, and she had to change it to wash it. Only then did I realize that Madam’s The skirt is worn backwards, because the material is very dark, so it is not easy for people to see it."

There were several indistinct gasps in the room.

Changing clothes is just an ordinary thing that can be ignored. However, after combining the rhetoric of Jiang Yu, Xia, and Wu Erwo, the matter of changing clothes is extremely unusual, even a bit sensational.

And the skirt worn backwards can explain certain problems even more.

Why wear the skirt backwards?Could it be that something was stained on the front of the skirt, making it impossible to see people, so I had to wear the skirt upside down?
Thinking about it further, Mrs. Wen died by the river bed, and Mrs. Wu said nothing after going to the river bed to see it. Why did she hide it?Is it because of fear or... for some other reason?
Everyone's eyes focused on Mrs. Wu again.

Old Mrs. Wu sat expressionless, her face was frighteningly gloomy.

At this time, Jiang Yu continued: "I didn't know what happened at the time. When I heard Madam say that I wanted to change the skirt, I said that the skirt was still wet, and I would catch cold if I wore it like this. But Madam insisted on changing it. I had no choice but to sneak inside, found a similar dress from the change of clothes, and took it to my wife. The girl probably didn't know that there was a fixed number of changes of clothes every day at that time, and the manager of the long room The woman would come to count the number every day, so after I handed over the new clothes to Madam, I found a slightly dry one from the laundry and took it back to count. When I returned to the well again, Madam had already She changed into a new skirt, but the old one was rolled up by her, as if there was a stone wrapped in it. Seeing me coming, the lady threw the changed skirt into the well and yelled at me. Say, don't tell anyone about this."

The room was extremely quiet, only Jiang Yu's deep voice, accompanied by gusts of wind, fell into my ears.

"Grandmother threw away her clothes, why?" Qin Su asked.

Rather than saying that she has doubts, it is better to say that she is asking on behalf of most of the uninformed people in this room.

Jiang Yu raised her head, her empty eyes passed by Qin Su, and she cast her eyes on the gray sky not far away, her voice became more and more cold: "At the beginning, I didn't understand why Madam threw away the clothes, I only knew that the skirt was wrapped in clothes. I'm afraid it won't sink for a while, because my wife just rolled up a few balls casually, and didn't tie the stones tightly with her belt. In the water, the clothes are light and the stones are heavy. As soon as it spreads out, it can continue to float on the water, but the stone will sink. I was a little worried that the people who washed the clothes would still fish the clothes from the well tomorrow. I wanted to remind Madam a few words, but Madam was ...The face at that time was too ugly, I didn't dare to say more, I just thought that at night, I would come quietly to fish out the clothes and find a place to bury them."
