Chapter 87
Chapter 87
"You mean...?" Song Changchun asked with some doubts.
Qiao Sirou smiled, "It's nothing. You go to inquire about the official family, and see if anyone in Heqinghou's mansion has dealt with the official family recently. Why don't I order someone to invite your father over to discuss something with him. Erlang, let's If the three of us, mother and son, want to live in peace and stability in this mansion, we must let your father stand by our side."
"You're right." Song Changchun agreed.
Mrs. Tai's ears are too soft, He Qinghou and Mrs. Su have been estranged from the second room day by day since the incident of adopting, if Song Yong doesn't agree with the mother and son, wouldn't it be too difficult.
Song Changchun went out to inquire about the situation of the official's house.
After Song Changchun left, Qiao Sirou ordered someone to invite Song Yong.
Song Yong staggered a little, and came excitedly, "Ma'am, it's really rare." He was drunk a lot by a group of relatives and friends today, and now his eyes are half closed, and his face is drunk, "It's rare that Madam wants to see me. Madam , we will be father-in-law and mother-in-law, and we will drink daughter-in-law tea tomorrow morning, which is really gratifying. Tonight... tonight, I will rest here for my husband, how about it?"
Qiao Sirou frowned, "Why are you so drunk?" He ordered the maid to bring him hangover soup, Song Yong rubbed his hands excitedly, and said repeatedly: "Madam is so considerate, so considerate." After receiving the hangover soup, Xi Zizi gulp.
This hangover soup is made from ganoderma lucidum. First slice the ganoderma lucidum, add water, simmer for an hour, then take the juice and add some honey. It is excellent for sobering up and appetizing, but the taste is a bit bitter.In recent years, Qiao Sirou has seldom been gentle towards Song Yong, but today he suddenly ordered the maid to bring over hangover soup, Song Yong was overjoyed, even forgot the bitterness in his mouth, and drank it very refreshingly.After Song Yong drank the hangover soup and became a little clearer, Qiao Sirou sent out everyone around him, leaving only her and Song Yong in the room.
"He married a daughter-in-law and came in, Madam is much closer to me!" Song Yong thought that Qiao Sirou was going to reconcile with him, and smiled happily, feeling extremely comfortable in his heart.
Qiao Sirou talked about what happened today in a calm voice, and Song Yong's eyes widened, "What? The elder brother left the table not to appreciate famous paintings with his brother-in-law, but to persuade his brother-in-law to marry his niece early?" Those who were at the banquet were drinking with a group of relatives and friends, and seeing Heqinghou Dan invited Uncle Yu out to appreciate calligraphy and painting, he felt a little strange, "When is it not possible to appreciate calligraphy and painting, today is Da Lang's wedding banquet. "However, there are many people and things are complicated, so I didn't think much about it at the time, so I was busy entertaining guests.Looking back now, even he felt that something was wrong.
Qiao Sirou said lightly: "Brother and brother-in-law have only met each other a few times? They are not familiar with each other. If you want to talk about such housework with brother-in-law, shouldn't you discuss it with you beforehand? How can we interfere in the Yu family's housework?" , it is because of the affection between relatives that if you really want to remind me, shouldn't you say it? Big brother is nothing like this."
Song Yong exploded, and asked loudly angrily: "Yeah, why didn't the eldest brother discuss with me in advance? Why didn't you let me go? He and his brother-in-law have never met a few times in total, and they are not familiar with each other!"
If he hadn't always been afraid of He Qinghou, he would have rushed out to argue with his elder brother.
Qiao Sirou raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction, "Screaming so loudly, do you want the whole family to hear it?"
"No, I'm just too angry, too angry." Song Yong was embarrassed and smiled.
Qiao Sirou was speechless for a while, then said slowly: "Brother has always been calm and prudent, you know that. The reason why he acted unexpectedly this time is nothing more than..." His voice gradually fell, and Song Yong Knowing how interesting, he hurriedly leaned over with a smiling face and listened attentively.
Qiao Sirou told him He Qinghou's worries and Linglong's response, "...Brother also had good intentions, and believed the rumors to be true, and asked my brother-in-law to promise Linglong out quickly, so as to seal the rumors. But He was also speechless when he heard Linglong's question."
In front of Song Yong, Qiao Sirou wouldn't know everything and talk endlessly, and she had to reserve her words.According to her, He Qinghou is a person who is not as smart as a little girl if he doesn't think carefully about things, but he has done bad things with good intentions.
Song Yong complained, "Brother was so smart before, but now he's getting more and more confused." Thinking that his elder brother, whom he always respected, was less concerned about things than an eleven or twelve-year-old girl like Linglong, he was a little frustrated, and felt that there was something wrong on his face. Can't get down.
Qiao Sirou smiled, "What kind of person is big brother? I just can't figure it out for a while. After Linglong said this, he should understand. It's nothing to worry about. I'm not worried about big brother, but Sister Qing and Sister Qin. Today is On a good day for Dalang to marry a wife and get married, they are the ones who entertain guests from relatives and friends. The guest was rudely provoked, and the two of them stood silently and watched the excitement. Which family's etiquette is this? What are Sister Qing and Sister Qin so concerned about?" Seeing that Song Yong's face showed anger again, he added softly, "Da Lang is their eldest brother."
Song Yong blushed, "These two...these two are worthless! They are worthless!" He looked very heartbroken.
Although Song Yong has never had great skills, he still knows a thing or two about human relationships.When the Song family held a happy event, the host of course had to be Linglong in all directions, long-sleeved and good at dancing so that all the guests were treated with courtesy. When someone attacked Linglong, Song Changqing and Song Changqin hid aside and did not show their faces. This is not the way to treat guests.What's more, it was Linglong who made things difficult, Dalang Erlang's aunt and cousin, and the one who made troubles was the daughter of a thousand households in the guard. The identities of the two were incomparable--Linglong was a relative to Heqinghoufu. The daughter of a thousand households counts which onion and which garlic.
Qiao Sirou said softly: "I was so angry that I almost couldn't come today, you know? My sister-in-law has been ill these days, and Dalang's marriage was arranged by me alone. If something like this happened at the banquet, I would be angry." I can only be bored in my heart and have no complaints. Whenever I have a half-sentence to complain, I don’t know what my sister-in-law has to say. The one who suffers is my niece, and the ones who sit idly by are Qing and Qin. My girl, anyway, I am unlucky. Alas, Sister Qing and Sister Qin grew up beside Mrs. Tai, and I can't interfere with their upbringing, which made them develop such a temperament..." When Song Changqing and Song Changqin were mentioned, she felt sad, "If Mrs. Tai or Mrs. Hou blamed me, I really have nothing to say."
Song Changqing and Song Changqin were taken away by Mrs. Tai not long after they were born, so they grew up beside Mrs. Tai.But the two of them are girls in the second bedroom in name, and any mistakes are due to Qiao Sirou's poor upbringing.
Song Yong was aroused bloody, "Exactly! We husband and wife can't get involved in the upbringing of Sister Qing and Sister Qin, it's all mother's decision, but if there is something wrong between them, it's our parents' face." Shang Wuguang! Ma’am, I’m going to talk to my mother now, or she will hand over Sister Qing and Sister Qin to us husband and wife to discipline them, or simply adopt them to my sister-in-law, depending on what mother and sister-in-law want That's all. There's just one thing, if they make any mistakes in the future, it will have nothing to do with us!"
Although he said this in a fit of anger, there is some truth to it.The upbringing of a girl should be the responsibility of the "mother". Usually, it is not under the control of the "mother". If something goes wrong, it is the responsibility of the "mother".
Qiao Sirou smiled and said: "I told you this not for anything else, but because I was afraid that you would be kept in the dark by others and suffer for nothing. Mother and elder brother are naturally doing it for your own good, but you also know that the elder brother is The first room, the second room is the second room. You, me, Da Lang, and Er Lang, we are the four closest relatives."
Song Yong said enthusiastically, "Yes, and Da Lang's wife."
——He didn't forget Xu Chuanjie who just entered the door today.
Qiao Sirou couldn't help but smile.
Song Yong got his wife's good face and was very happy. He was a man of his age and smiled like a child.
Qiao Sirou felt sore in her heart.I think that I used to be affectionate and tender with him back then, and when I saw his smiling face, I felt the sun was shining and warm like spring, but since Yan Yunqing, who had been engaged to him, entered the door, everything was different...
The maid came in and reported, "The official's wife brought the girl to come to make amends, and Mrs. Tai asked you to go there."
The tenderness in Qiao Sirou's eyes disappeared, her heart hardened, and she said coldly: "Let's go over there and listen to what mother and sister-in-law have to say." Song Yong nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay, let's go over. Madam, don't worry, what do you say? Whatever it is, I'll listen to you." Dian'er Dian'er followed beside Qiao Sirou, his face full of hospitality.
Mrs. Tai is an elderly person, and usually tends to lean on her side. There is an old mahogany bed with seven screens inlaid with mother-of-pearl in the middle of the room. She is sitting on the bed, and she is as kind as usual.There were two rows of people standing on the ground, Madam Su, Song Changqing, and Song Changqin on one side, and a young woman in her twenties on the other side, wearing a brocade beige with black magnolia flowers on a red background, and a floral skirt underneath, like a white dumpling. Round face, slightly fatter, with shrewd eyes; next to the young woman is a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, dressed in bright red, but listless, with her head bowed, and the handkerchief in her hand has been wrung out of shape up.
"Is it the second master, the second lady?" Seeing Song Yong and Qiao Sirou coming in, the young woman greeted her with a smile on her face and said, "My family is the Bao family, the wife of a thousand officials. There is a happy event in the house today. I was supposed to come to congratulate, but unfortunately, my family suffered from a headache, so I had to let her come to the banquet alone. Who knows that this girl is ignorant, but... oh, this girl lost her mother when she was young, and she was born out of education , I didn’t keep an eye on her for half a day, and she got into trouble. It’s all my fault, I’ve apologized to the second master and second lady!” Pulling the girl in red, she said sharply, “Jin Niang, Why don't you hurry up and kowtow to the second master and the second wife?" The girl named Jin Niang didn't dare to disobey, she knelt down and kowtowed a few times reluctantly, muttering a few words in her mouth, but no one could clearly hear what she was saying .
Mrs. Tai is soft-hearted, she couldn't bear to see Jinniang's aggrieved look, she smiled and looked at Qiao Sirou, "Although it's a bit hateful, you're still a child, you've always been magnanimous, look...?
Song Changqing and Song Changqin bowed their heads meekly, and laughed secretly, "Grandmother, you are too good-natured." Madam Su wanted to roll her eyes even more.Do you need to be so polite to her?She is your daughter-in-law!
"Let's not say that my younger siblings are always magnanimous, but my mother, if you open your mouth, my younger siblings will definitely listen." Mrs. Su said maliciously.
Qiao Sirou smiled slightly, took two quick steps and held Mrs. Tai's outstretched hand, and met her earnest eyes, "Mother, Miss Guan is young and ignorant, and my daughter-in-law won't be as knowledgeable as her." Mrs. Tai is very pleased, " That's right. Our Song family is a generous family, and they are so unreasonable and unforgiving. Killing people is just nodding, don't you think so?" Qiao Sirou smiled gently, "Mother said yes. Don't worry, I will ask her how much In a word, it won't be difficult for her."
"That's right, just a few questions." Song Yong agreed.
Mrs. Tai is naturally not good at what to say.
Mrs. Su smiled, "It's just a child, what is there to ask? The siblings are also too careful."
Qiao Sirou retorted gently, "Only children speak the truth, sister-in-law, don't you think so?" She looked at Mrs. Su with a smile, her expression full of sarcasm.
Mrs. Su couldn't stop her anymore, she kept a straight face, as if someone owed her two hundred dollars.
Qiao Sirou looked at Jin Niang who was kneeling on the ground, and asked gently: "You are a child, even though you are rude, I will not blame you, you don't have to be afraid. Is your name Jin Niang? Jin Niang, Tell me, where and from whom did you hear those rumors?"
A trace of panic flashed across Bao's face, and he secretly glanced at Mrs. Su.Jin Niang raised her head in astonishment, "Who did you hear about it? Ma'am, it's spread throughout the city, everyone knows it, everyone knows it!"
"Returning to Madam, even my daughter has heard of it." Song Changqing took two steps forward and said timidly.
"Did Madam tell you to talk, and you just interrupted? Who taught you the rules?" Song Yong scolded.
Song Changqing's eyes were red, and he said in a low voice, "Father taught me that." He bent his knees, bowed his head and stood back to his original position.
Mrs. Tai was very distressed, she glanced at Song Yong several times, seeing that his complexion was not good, she didn't dare to speak for Song Changqing.
Qiao Sirou frowned, "Jin Niang, who did you hear this rumor for the first time? Who did you hear it for the last time?" Shi gritted his teeth beside him, slapped Jin Niang fiercely, and scolded sharply, "How do I teach you on weekdays? If you don't do something good, you will definitely get me into trouble!" , and fanned several times.
The dowager trembled angrily, "It's not my own, so I shouldn't rub it like this!" Tremblingly pointed at Bao, obviously very angry.Song Changqin winked, and hurried over to pat her on the back, "Grandmother, don't be as knowledgeable as her, and don't be angry." Song Changqing looked a little dazed, and he recovered after a moment of daze, and went to please Mrs. Tai, "You Your body is precious, so what can you do if you get angry." Mrs. Tai's chest heaved and she gasped heavily, Song Changqing said in panic: "Grandmother, what's wrong with you, grandma?" Song Yong and Qiao Sirou approached with concern at the same time, "Mother, are you alright?" Bar?"
Jin Niang was stunned by the beating at first, and her cheeks were already flushed from the beating, so she covered her face and cried, "When my brother comes back, I'll let him kill you! I'll let him kill you!" Bao heard After hearing her words, she became more and more angry, and she pulled and beat her hard, causing Jin Niang's hair to be messed up, and howled like a pig being killed.
Mrs. Su's face sank like water, "How decent!" She ordered the maid, "Call the two wives over here, and drive this crazy mother and daughter out of the house!"
Song Yong put all his heart on Mrs. Tai, Qiao Sirou watched Mrs. Su drive Bao Shi and Jin Niang out coldly, and smiled contemptuously.
Mrs. Tai was just angry, the doctor came over to show her, and prescribed a prescription, "If the old man likes to eat, he can take two doses. If he doesn't like it, it's okay." Everyone knew that Mrs. Tai was fine, so they could rest assured.
But something happened to Jin Niang.After she followed Bao back home, she hanged herself.
At dusk, Song Changchun hurried, trotting all the way into the hall, "It's bad! The girl from the official family hanged herself after returning home. She has an older brother of the same mother, Guan Shousheng, who has a very good relationship with her brother and sister. After Guan Shousheng came home, he didn't know what Bao said, so he ordered two servants to carry the girl's body to the Hou's mansion! I have ordered the housekeeper to come over and persuade me. It may take a while. What is going on? Deal with it, and ask grandma for an idea."
Mrs. Tai was better at first, but when she heard Song Changchun's words, her face turned pale, and she said repeatedly: "It's a sin, a good child, why did you commit suicide?"
Mrs. Su raised her eyebrows, and asked coldly: "Is my brother and sister at ease now? If you are magnanimous and let that child go, she won't be..."
"Sister-in-law, please be careful!" Qiao Sirou said sternly: "I want to ask that girl a few words, isn't it right? Why did the sister-in-law she commit suicide figure out why, so she just accused me and poured dirty water on me? !"
Song Yong was very angry, and asked angrily, "Sister-in-law knows what's going on inside? Why do you think that girl's death is related to our husband and wife?" He was in a hurry to flatter, and Mrs. Su accused Qiao Sirou, but in his mouth it became "" We are husband and wife", a picture of advancing and retreating with Qiao Sirou.
Mrs. Su was so angry at Song Yong's stupidity.
He Qinghou walked into the hall in stride, "My Song family has always treated people generously, how often have they killed someone?" He glanced at Song Yong and Qiao Sirou, his face so gloomy that water dripped down his face.
"It's clearly blackmailing people!" Song Yong was furious, "His girl did something wrong to make amends, and we just asked nice words, and it has nothing to do with us whether people die or not. ?”
He hurriedly said: "Mother, madam, I'll get rid of this ugly thing, you guys wait here, don't be afraid!" He raised his foot and walked to the door.
Marquis He Qing hurriedly stopped him, "What are you doing? Do you think our family's reputation is not enough? You go and drive people away forcibly, there will be more people gossiping!"
"Then what do you think we should do?" Song Yong knocked off his hand and shouted angrily, "Today is a good day for Da Lang to get married! I can't let this unlucky person block the door, it's unlucky!"
"That's right, it's unlucky." Mrs. Tai took a breath and said in agreement.
She pityed the little girl who died in vain, but she cared more about her grandson.
"However, the reputation of the Song family is important." Song Changqing said with a clear face, "Father, if you act impulsively, the Heqinghou Mansion will inevitably bear the reputation of being a bully."
Don't mention the anger in Qiao Sirou's heart.If the farce at the wedding banquet had already made her gnash her teeth, then this scene in front of her disgusted her even more!
"Sister Qing is right." He Qinghou Mansion sighed.
He frowned, obviously very troubled by the matter in front of him.Since the old He Qinghou passed away and he took charge of the Houfu, he has experienced a lot of things, but he has always been calm, and Mrs. Tai has a good temper. This is the first time he has encountered such a life-threatening incident. Very headache.
As the head of the Marquis Mansion of Heqing, he didn't want the Hou Mansion to bear the reputation of being domineering and bullying others, and he didn't even want to be forced to carry the dead body not long after he moved to Shuntian Mansion and left the capital. Come to ask for justice.Good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles away. If the censor who has a lot of troubles hears about it, what will His Majesty think of the Heqinghou Mansion?When he was in the capital, he followed the law and obeyed the law, so he moved to Shuntian Mansion, so did people die?Were you just pretending to keep yourself safe before?
"Sister Lian Qing knows this truth." Mrs. Su said in a strange way.
Qiao Sirou ignored her sarcasm, and discussed with Song Yong, "Go and stop that person, I will order someone to go back to Qiao's Lane and let the magistrate come forward, how about it?" Song Yong strongly agreed, "very much It should be! If there is a serious matter involving human life, it should be tried by the government. The elder brother is the governor of the government, and this is his duty."
Mrs. Tai was very happy, clasped her hands together and said: "Amitabha, fortunately we have this in-law!"
Marquis He Qing pondered for a moment, then reluctantly nodded, "It would be feasible for Shuntian Mansion to come forward."
Mrs. Su had a look of resentment on her face, "This is great, even the lawsuit has been filed, the Song family is really lively." Song Changqing thought for a moment, walked up to Qiao Sirou and bowed, and said sincerely: "Accordingly, this is not something my daughter should say. However, in the current situation, as the Song family, the daughter is obliged to persuade Madam. Madam, if the lawsuit comes to Shuntian Mansion, our Song family will also gain the reputation of bullying. Our house is the residence of the Marquis, and the official family only It's just a small thousand households. Who believes that the government will report to the public to deal with the lawsuit between these two families? They will definitely criticize our family behind their backs. What's more, the uncle of the Qiao family is the prefect of the government, and the matter involves in-laws. It’s easy to decide. Isn’t this a problem for Uncle Qiao’s family? According to my daughter, it’s better to make it a big deal, let’s make it a small one.”
What she said was sincere and touching.
Mrs. Tai has already nodded repeatedly.
He Qinghou was also moved by it.
"How can a big matter be turned into a small one, and a small matter turned into a law?" Qiao Sirou asked lightly.
Song Changqing looked dignified, knelt down and bowed four times, very solemn.
Song Changchun clenched his fists.
Qiao Sirou's eyes were full of sarcasm.
Song Changqing raised his head and said loudly: "We are both members of the Song family, so we should sacrifice ourselves and self-interest for the sake of the Song family! I beg your wife to put aside worldly thoughts for a while, put down your dignity, and go and apologize to Miss Guan's brother. Comfort him with nice words, and influence him with tolerance and generosity. In this way, no one will talk about the Song family anymore, they will only praise the Song family for their virtues and good deeds, the heart of a Bodhisattva, their benevolence and righteousness..."
Qiao Sirou laughed angrily, "What a good idea you came up with!"
Evil thoughts suddenly arose in Song Changchun's heart.
He gave Song Changqing a cold look, and Song Changqing shivered uncontrollably.
His eyes were as cold as frost and snow, without a trace of warmth.
He Qinghou didn't quite agree, "In this way, it would hurt the face of the Song family." Song Yong agreed with him this time, and gave Song Changqing a look, "Don't talk nonsense if you are ignorant! With such a face, where will the Song family's face go?"
"However, the Song family has always built bridges and paved roads, cared for the old and the poor, who wouldn't boast that everyone in the Song family is a bodhisattva?" Song Changqing argued unwillingly.
Mrs. Su sneered and said: "It's a pity that I didn't cause the trouble. Otherwise, I would have given up my thin face and gone to talk nicely to Guan Shousheng! Compared with the Song family's reputation, my face is nothing ?”
Marquis He Qing was a little unsure, "If you are humbled by him, it would be disrespectful and disrespectful. But if you are too tough... Alas, His Majesty is the same as the late Emperor, he dislikes officials bullying the common people and subordinates the most." Si Lai Want to go, very hesitant.
Song Changqing walked up to Qiao Sirou on his knees, and begged: "Madam, I beg you to wrong yourself for the sake of the Song family! My daughter is willing to go with you!"
Qiao Sirou smiled, "Very good, you can go with me."
She smiled very softly, tenderly.
Mrs. Tai and Marquis Heqing were silent, obviously acquiescing.
It was clear that they both wanted to make peace.
Song Yong was indignant, "My wife has done nothing wrong, I saw it with my own eyes, it is clear! If you want to let that brat from the official's family accompany you, I will not agree!"
Qiao Sirou smiled, "Don't worry, I have my own reasons."
Seeing her confident appearance, Song Yong didn't object anymore, and muttered, "You did nothing wrong, and the Song family is too weak, and they will be looked down upon in the future..."
Qiao Sirou asked Song Changchun to whisper a few words, Song Changchun listened intently, nodded, "Yes, I'll do it right away." He walked out quickly.
"It's great to have a son." Mrs. Su saw it with envy.
She felt that she was better than Qiao Sirou in everything, but not having a son had always been a pain in her heart.
Qiao Sirou took Song Changqing and two personal maids to a secluded courtyard.
After half an hour, Song Changchun came back, "Mother, I did what you told me, Guan Shousheng really stopped making noise and came with me."
"What did you say that works so well?" Song Changqing was taken aback.
Behind Song Changchun was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, with a long face, thick eyebrows, deep eye sockets, dressed in black, and fierce eyes.After entering the door, he looked at Qiao Sirou suspiciously and angrily, "Who is the real murderer who killed my sister? Tell me!"
Qiao Sirou smiled lightly, and ordered Song Changqing to go out and wait.Song Changqing had a thousand and 1 unwillingness in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey, silently bent his knees, moved lightly with lotus steps and retreated.
Although she was withdrawing, how could she be willing to ignore it?With his ears pressed against the door, he tried his best to eavesdrop on what was being said inside.
"Nongyu, learn from Bao's and Jinniang's situation today." Qiao Sirou ordered.
A little girl learned with a clear and sweet voice what Bao and Jin Niang had said in the hall, including the words of Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Su, Qiao Sirou and others.This girl is eloquent and her narration is very clear.
There was a creaking sound of joints in the room.
That official Shousheng must have been extremely angry.
Song Changqing couldn't help shivering.
"Erlang, tell me about the wedding banquet and the relationship between the official family and Heqinghou's mansion that you have heard about." Qiao Sirou ordered again.
Song Changchun respectfully agreed, "Yes, mother." However, his next voice was extremely low, and Song Changqing listened outside with his ears open, but he couldn't hear clearly, so he could only be anxious.
The door opened abruptly, and Guan Shousheng's strong and sturdy body appeared in front of Song Changqing, which startled her.
Song Changqing stepped back subconsciously, with a smile on his face.
Guan Shousheng looked at her gloomyly. If eyes could kill, Song Changqing would have died more than once.
Guan Shousheng's tone was gloomy, "Miss Song, sister-in-law came to your residence today for a wedding, and have you been whispering with you for a long time?"
Song Changqing smiled forcefully, "Not really. I am the host, and I will entertain any little girls who come to the banquet. How can I have a long whisper with Lingmei? How can I ignore other guests."
"What if she has already arrived?" Guan Shousheng asked ruthlessly.
Song Changqing was stared at by his sharp and sharp eyes like a falcon, and shivered.
"You, what do you want?" Song Changqing dared to ask.
Guan Shousheng grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth, "I don't think so."
Song Changqing was terrified.
Chongshanhou's Mansion and Qiaojiaxiang knew that someone was going to make trouble in Heqinghou's Mansion, Chongshanhou and Qiao Siqi couldn't sit still at home, so they went to Song's house to find out what happened.These two are distinguished guests, and the Marquis of Heqing came out to greet them, and he sighed when they met, "It's such a disappointment that such a thing happened in Dalang's good life. Now that the official family is in the mansion, I hope I can persuade you Let him go, stop messing around." The three of them were walking in, when a few people walked up a small path among flowers and trees beside them, they were Qiao Sirou, Song Changchun and Song Changqing, Guan Shousheng and two maids.
The three stopped together.
Qiao Siqi looked at Guan Shousheng and frowned, "This man has a very bad face and is a difficult person to deal with."
Marquis Chongshan also felt the same way, "This man has a murderous look on his brows, he is not a good stubble."
When Song Changqing walked under the shade of the tree, somehow his feet slipped and he couldn't stand firmly.Guan Shousheng was walking in front of her, but as if he had eyes behind him, he turned around quickly, stretched out his arms, and held Song Changqing tightly in his arms.
"Let me go, let me go!" Song Changqing beat him, his face paled with shock, and he struggled desperately.
Guan Shousheng's arms were like iron tongs, she couldn't break free.
He Qinghou and the other three were dumbfounded.
Originally Song Changchun could have helped Song Changqing, but what a coincidence, he stepped on something, slipped and fell to the ground, he gasped in pain.
Poor Song Changqing was hugged tightly by Guan Shousheng for half a cup of tea, He Qinghou and others were in a daze, Song Changchun fell to the ground, and Qiao Sirou, women are timid, seeing this scene, I really can't accept it, fainted.The two maids hurriedly supported her one by one, "Ma'am, what's the matter with you, Ma'am?" They looked panic-stricken.
The scene was awkward and chaotic.
"Let go of me, or I'll grit my teeth and kill myself!" Song Changqing took a breath and shouted sharply.
"Let me let you go, but I will give you your hairpin." Guan Shousheng said rascally, and took off the gold hairpin from Song Changqing's hair.
Song Changqing's face was as white as snow.
Guan Shousheng smiled evilly and let her go.
Song Changqing stood on the ground in a daze, looked at He Qinghou and others on Yonglu Road, then at Song Changchun who fell down, and Qiao Sirou who passed out, even his lips were bloodless.
"It's over, I'm over." Song Changqing sounded a desperate voice in his heart.
(End of this chapter)
"You mean...?" Song Changchun asked with some doubts.
Qiao Sirou smiled, "It's nothing. You go to inquire about the official family, and see if anyone in Heqinghou's mansion has dealt with the official family recently. Why don't I order someone to invite your father over to discuss something with him. Erlang, let's If the three of us, mother and son, want to live in peace and stability in this mansion, we must let your father stand by our side."
"You're right." Song Changchun agreed.
Mrs. Tai's ears are too soft, He Qinghou and Mrs. Su have been estranged from the second room day by day since the incident of adopting, if Song Yong doesn't agree with the mother and son, wouldn't it be too difficult.
Song Changchun went out to inquire about the situation of the official's house.
After Song Changchun left, Qiao Sirou ordered someone to invite Song Yong.
Song Yong staggered a little, and came excitedly, "Ma'am, it's really rare." He was drunk a lot by a group of relatives and friends today, and now his eyes are half closed, and his face is drunk, "It's rare that Madam wants to see me. Madam , we will be father-in-law and mother-in-law, and we will drink daughter-in-law tea tomorrow morning, which is really gratifying. Tonight... tonight, I will rest here for my husband, how about it?"
Qiao Sirou frowned, "Why are you so drunk?" He ordered the maid to bring him hangover soup, Song Yong rubbed his hands excitedly, and said repeatedly: "Madam is so considerate, so considerate." After receiving the hangover soup, Xi Zizi gulp.
This hangover soup is made from ganoderma lucidum. First slice the ganoderma lucidum, add water, simmer for an hour, then take the juice and add some honey. It is excellent for sobering up and appetizing, but the taste is a bit bitter.In recent years, Qiao Sirou has seldom been gentle towards Song Yong, but today he suddenly ordered the maid to bring over hangover soup, Song Yong was overjoyed, even forgot the bitterness in his mouth, and drank it very refreshingly.After Song Yong drank the hangover soup and became a little clearer, Qiao Sirou sent out everyone around him, leaving only her and Song Yong in the room.
"He married a daughter-in-law and came in, Madam is much closer to me!" Song Yong thought that Qiao Sirou was going to reconcile with him, and smiled happily, feeling extremely comfortable in his heart.
Qiao Sirou talked about what happened today in a calm voice, and Song Yong's eyes widened, "What? The elder brother left the table not to appreciate famous paintings with his brother-in-law, but to persuade his brother-in-law to marry his niece early?" Those who were at the banquet were drinking with a group of relatives and friends, and seeing Heqinghou Dan invited Uncle Yu out to appreciate calligraphy and painting, he felt a little strange, "When is it not possible to appreciate calligraphy and painting, today is Da Lang's wedding banquet. "However, there are many people and things are complicated, so I didn't think much about it at the time, so I was busy entertaining guests.Looking back now, even he felt that something was wrong.
Qiao Sirou said lightly: "Brother and brother-in-law have only met each other a few times? They are not familiar with each other. If you want to talk about such housework with brother-in-law, shouldn't you discuss it with you beforehand? How can we interfere in the Yu family's housework?" , it is because of the affection between relatives that if you really want to remind me, shouldn't you say it? Big brother is nothing like this."
Song Yong exploded, and asked loudly angrily: "Yeah, why didn't the eldest brother discuss with me in advance? Why didn't you let me go? He and his brother-in-law have never met a few times in total, and they are not familiar with each other!"
If he hadn't always been afraid of He Qinghou, he would have rushed out to argue with his elder brother.
Qiao Sirou raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction, "Screaming so loudly, do you want the whole family to hear it?"
"No, I'm just too angry, too angry." Song Yong was embarrassed and smiled.
Qiao Sirou was speechless for a while, then said slowly: "Brother has always been calm and prudent, you know that. The reason why he acted unexpectedly this time is nothing more than..." His voice gradually fell, and Song Yong Knowing how interesting, he hurriedly leaned over with a smiling face and listened attentively.
Qiao Sirou told him He Qinghou's worries and Linglong's response, "...Brother also had good intentions, and believed the rumors to be true, and asked my brother-in-law to promise Linglong out quickly, so as to seal the rumors. But He was also speechless when he heard Linglong's question."
In front of Song Yong, Qiao Sirou wouldn't know everything and talk endlessly, and she had to reserve her words.According to her, He Qinghou is a person who is not as smart as a little girl if he doesn't think carefully about things, but he has done bad things with good intentions.
Song Yong complained, "Brother was so smart before, but now he's getting more and more confused." Thinking that his elder brother, whom he always respected, was less concerned about things than an eleven or twelve-year-old girl like Linglong, he was a little frustrated, and felt that there was something wrong on his face. Can't get down.
Qiao Sirou smiled, "What kind of person is big brother? I just can't figure it out for a while. After Linglong said this, he should understand. It's nothing to worry about. I'm not worried about big brother, but Sister Qing and Sister Qin. Today is On a good day for Dalang to marry a wife and get married, they are the ones who entertain guests from relatives and friends. The guest was rudely provoked, and the two of them stood silently and watched the excitement. Which family's etiquette is this? What are Sister Qing and Sister Qin so concerned about?" Seeing that Song Yong's face showed anger again, he added softly, "Da Lang is their eldest brother."
Song Yong blushed, "These two...these two are worthless! They are worthless!" He looked very heartbroken.
Although Song Yong has never had great skills, he still knows a thing or two about human relationships.When the Song family held a happy event, the host of course had to be Linglong in all directions, long-sleeved and good at dancing so that all the guests were treated with courtesy. When someone attacked Linglong, Song Changqing and Song Changqin hid aside and did not show their faces. This is not the way to treat guests.What's more, it was Linglong who made things difficult, Dalang Erlang's aunt and cousin, and the one who made troubles was the daughter of a thousand households in the guard. The identities of the two were incomparable--Linglong was a relative to Heqinghoufu. The daughter of a thousand households counts which onion and which garlic.
Qiao Sirou said softly: "I was so angry that I almost couldn't come today, you know? My sister-in-law has been ill these days, and Dalang's marriage was arranged by me alone. If something like this happened at the banquet, I would be angry." I can only be bored in my heart and have no complaints. Whenever I have a half-sentence to complain, I don’t know what my sister-in-law has to say. The one who suffers is my niece, and the ones who sit idly by are Qing and Qin. My girl, anyway, I am unlucky. Alas, Sister Qing and Sister Qin grew up beside Mrs. Tai, and I can't interfere with their upbringing, which made them develop such a temperament..." When Song Changqing and Song Changqin were mentioned, she felt sad, "If Mrs. Tai or Mrs. Hou blamed me, I really have nothing to say."
Song Changqing and Song Changqin were taken away by Mrs. Tai not long after they were born, so they grew up beside Mrs. Tai.But the two of them are girls in the second bedroom in name, and any mistakes are due to Qiao Sirou's poor upbringing.
Song Yong was aroused bloody, "Exactly! We husband and wife can't get involved in the upbringing of Sister Qing and Sister Qin, it's all mother's decision, but if there is something wrong between them, it's our parents' face." Shang Wuguang! Ma’am, I’m going to talk to my mother now, or she will hand over Sister Qing and Sister Qin to us husband and wife to discipline them, or simply adopt them to my sister-in-law, depending on what mother and sister-in-law want That's all. There's just one thing, if they make any mistakes in the future, it will have nothing to do with us!"
Although he said this in a fit of anger, there is some truth to it.The upbringing of a girl should be the responsibility of the "mother". Usually, it is not under the control of the "mother". If something goes wrong, it is the responsibility of the "mother".
Qiao Sirou smiled and said: "I told you this not for anything else, but because I was afraid that you would be kept in the dark by others and suffer for nothing. Mother and elder brother are naturally doing it for your own good, but you also know that the elder brother is The first room, the second room is the second room. You, me, Da Lang, and Er Lang, we are the four closest relatives."
Song Yong said enthusiastically, "Yes, and Da Lang's wife."
——He didn't forget Xu Chuanjie who just entered the door today.
Qiao Sirou couldn't help but smile.
Song Yong got his wife's good face and was very happy. He was a man of his age and smiled like a child.
Qiao Sirou felt sore in her heart.I think that I used to be affectionate and tender with him back then, and when I saw his smiling face, I felt the sun was shining and warm like spring, but since Yan Yunqing, who had been engaged to him, entered the door, everything was different...
The maid came in and reported, "The official's wife brought the girl to come to make amends, and Mrs. Tai asked you to go there."
The tenderness in Qiao Sirou's eyes disappeared, her heart hardened, and she said coldly: "Let's go over there and listen to what mother and sister-in-law have to say." Song Yong nodded hurriedly, "Okay, okay, let's go over. Madam, don't worry, what do you say? Whatever it is, I'll listen to you." Dian'er Dian'er followed beside Qiao Sirou, his face full of hospitality.
Mrs. Tai is an elderly person, and usually tends to lean on her side. There is an old mahogany bed with seven screens inlaid with mother-of-pearl in the middle of the room. She is sitting on the bed, and she is as kind as usual.There were two rows of people standing on the ground, Madam Su, Song Changqing, and Song Changqin on one side, and a young woman in her twenties on the other side, wearing a brocade beige with black magnolia flowers on a red background, and a floral skirt underneath, like a white dumpling. Round face, slightly fatter, with shrewd eyes; next to the young woman is a girl of twelve or thirteen years old, dressed in bright red, but listless, with her head bowed, and the handkerchief in her hand has been wrung out of shape up.
"Is it the second master, the second lady?" Seeing Song Yong and Qiao Sirou coming in, the young woman greeted her with a smile on her face and said, "My family is the Bao family, the wife of a thousand officials. There is a happy event in the house today. I was supposed to come to congratulate, but unfortunately, my family suffered from a headache, so I had to let her come to the banquet alone. Who knows that this girl is ignorant, but... oh, this girl lost her mother when she was young, and she was born out of education , I didn’t keep an eye on her for half a day, and she got into trouble. It’s all my fault, I’ve apologized to the second master and second lady!” Pulling the girl in red, she said sharply, “Jin Niang, Why don't you hurry up and kowtow to the second master and the second wife?" The girl named Jin Niang didn't dare to disobey, she knelt down and kowtowed a few times reluctantly, muttering a few words in her mouth, but no one could clearly hear what she was saying .
Mrs. Tai is soft-hearted, she couldn't bear to see Jinniang's aggrieved look, she smiled and looked at Qiao Sirou, "Although it's a bit hateful, you're still a child, you've always been magnanimous, look...?
Song Changqing and Song Changqin bowed their heads meekly, and laughed secretly, "Grandmother, you are too good-natured." Madam Su wanted to roll her eyes even more.Do you need to be so polite to her?She is your daughter-in-law!
"Let's not say that my younger siblings are always magnanimous, but my mother, if you open your mouth, my younger siblings will definitely listen." Mrs. Su said maliciously.
Qiao Sirou smiled slightly, took two quick steps and held Mrs. Tai's outstretched hand, and met her earnest eyes, "Mother, Miss Guan is young and ignorant, and my daughter-in-law won't be as knowledgeable as her." Mrs. Tai is very pleased, " That's right. Our Song family is a generous family, and they are so unreasonable and unforgiving. Killing people is just nodding, don't you think so?" Qiao Sirou smiled gently, "Mother said yes. Don't worry, I will ask her how much In a word, it won't be difficult for her."
"That's right, just a few questions." Song Yong agreed.
Mrs. Tai is naturally not good at what to say.
Mrs. Su smiled, "It's just a child, what is there to ask? The siblings are also too careful."
Qiao Sirou retorted gently, "Only children speak the truth, sister-in-law, don't you think so?" She looked at Mrs. Su with a smile, her expression full of sarcasm.
Mrs. Su couldn't stop her anymore, she kept a straight face, as if someone owed her two hundred dollars.
Qiao Sirou looked at Jin Niang who was kneeling on the ground, and asked gently: "You are a child, even though you are rude, I will not blame you, you don't have to be afraid. Is your name Jin Niang? Jin Niang, Tell me, where and from whom did you hear those rumors?"
A trace of panic flashed across Bao's face, and he secretly glanced at Mrs. Su.Jin Niang raised her head in astonishment, "Who did you hear about it? Ma'am, it's spread throughout the city, everyone knows it, everyone knows it!"
"Returning to Madam, even my daughter has heard of it." Song Changqing took two steps forward and said timidly.
"Did Madam tell you to talk, and you just interrupted? Who taught you the rules?" Song Yong scolded.
Song Changqing's eyes were red, and he said in a low voice, "Father taught me that." He bent his knees, bowed his head and stood back to his original position.
Mrs. Tai was very distressed, she glanced at Song Yong several times, seeing that his complexion was not good, she didn't dare to speak for Song Changqing.
Qiao Sirou frowned, "Jin Niang, who did you hear this rumor for the first time? Who did you hear it for the last time?" Shi gritted his teeth beside him, slapped Jin Niang fiercely, and scolded sharply, "How do I teach you on weekdays? If you don't do something good, you will definitely get me into trouble!" , and fanned several times.
The dowager trembled angrily, "It's not my own, so I shouldn't rub it like this!" Tremblingly pointed at Bao, obviously very angry.Song Changqin winked, and hurried over to pat her on the back, "Grandmother, don't be as knowledgeable as her, and don't be angry." Song Changqing looked a little dazed, and he recovered after a moment of daze, and went to please Mrs. Tai, "You Your body is precious, so what can you do if you get angry." Mrs. Tai's chest heaved and she gasped heavily, Song Changqing said in panic: "Grandmother, what's wrong with you, grandma?" Song Yong and Qiao Sirou approached with concern at the same time, "Mother, are you alright?" Bar?"
Jin Niang was stunned by the beating at first, and her cheeks were already flushed from the beating, so she covered her face and cried, "When my brother comes back, I'll let him kill you! I'll let him kill you!" Bao heard After hearing her words, she became more and more angry, and she pulled and beat her hard, causing Jin Niang's hair to be messed up, and howled like a pig being killed.
Mrs. Su's face sank like water, "How decent!" She ordered the maid, "Call the two wives over here, and drive this crazy mother and daughter out of the house!"
Song Yong put all his heart on Mrs. Tai, Qiao Sirou watched Mrs. Su drive Bao Shi and Jin Niang out coldly, and smiled contemptuously.
Mrs. Tai was just angry, the doctor came over to show her, and prescribed a prescription, "If the old man likes to eat, he can take two doses. If he doesn't like it, it's okay." Everyone knew that Mrs. Tai was fine, so they could rest assured.
But something happened to Jin Niang.After she followed Bao back home, she hanged herself.
At dusk, Song Changchun hurried, trotting all the way into the hall, "It's bad! The girl from the official family hanged herself after returning home. She has an older brother of the same mother, Guan Shousheng, who has a very good relationship with her brother and sister. After Guan Shousheng came home, he didn't know what Bao said, so he ordered two servants to carry the girl's body to the Hou's mansion! I have ordered the housekeeper to come over and persuade me. It may take a while. What is going on? Deal with it, and ask grandma for an idea."
Mrs. Tai was better at first, but when she heard Song Changchun's words, her face turned pale, and she said repeatedly: "It's a sin, a good child, why did you commit suicide?"
Mrs. Su raised her eyebrows, and asked coldly: "Is my brother and sister at ease now? If you are magnanimous and let that child go, she won't be..."
"Sister-in-law, please be careful!" Qiao Sirou said sternly: "I want to ask that girl a few words, isn't it right? Why did the sister-in-law she commit suicide figure out why, so she just accused me and poured dirty water on me? !"
Song Yong was very angry, and asked angrily, "Sister-in-law knows what's going on inside? Why do you think that girl's death is related to our husband and wife?" He was in a hurry to flatter, and Mrs. Su accused Qiao Sirou, but in his mouth it became "" We are husband and wife", a picture of advancing and retreating with Qiao Sirou.
Mrs. Su was so angry at Song Yong's stupidity.
He Qinghou walked into the hall in stride, "My Song family has always treated people generously, how often have they killed someone?" He glanced at Song Yong and Qiao Sirou, his face so gloomy that water dripped down his face.
"It's clearly blackmailing people!" Song Yong was furious, "His girl did something wrong to make amends, and we just asked nice words, and it has nothing to do with us whether people die or not. ?”
He hurriedly said: "Mother, madam, I'll get rid of this ugly thing, you guys wait here, don't be afraid!" He raised his foot and walked to the door.
Marquis He Qing hurriedly stopped him, "What are you doing? Do you think our family's reputation is not enough? You go and drive people away forcibly, there will be more people gossiping!"
"Then what do you think we should do?" Song Yong knocked off his hand and shouted angrily, "Today is a good day for Da Lang to get married! I can't let this unlucky person block the door, it's unlucky!"
"That's right, it's unlucky." Mrs. Tai took a breath and said in agreement.
She pityed the little girl who died in vain, but she cared more about her grandson.
"However, the reputation of the Song family is important." Song Changqing said with a clear face, "Father, if you act impulsively, the Heqinghou Mansion will inevitably bear the reputation of being a bully."
Don't mention the anger in Qiao Sirou's heart.If the farce at the wedding banquet had already made her gnash her teeth, then this scene in front of her disgusted her even more!
"Sister Qing is right." He Qinghou Mansion sighed.
He frowned, obviously very troubled by the matter in front of him.Since the old He Qinghou passed away and he took charge of the Houfu, he has experienced a lot of things, but he has always been calm, and Mrs. Tai has a good temper. This is the first time he has encountered such a life-threatening incident. Very headache.
As the head of the Marquis Mansion of Heqing, he didn't want the Hou Mansion to bear the reputation of being domineering and bullying others, and he didn't even want to be forced to carry the dead body not long after he moved to Shuntian Mansion and left the capital. Come to ask for justice.Good things don't go out, and bad things spread thousands of miles away. If the censor who has a lot of troubles hears about it, what will His Majesty think of the Heqinghou Mansion?When he was in the capital, he followed the law and obeyed the law, so he moved to Shuntian Mansion, so did people die?Were you just pretending to keep yourself safe before?
"Sister Lian Qing knows this truth." Mrs. Su said in a strange way.
Qiao Sirou ignored her sarcasm, and discussed with Song Yong, "Go and stop that person, I will order someone to go back to Qiao's Lane and let the magistrate come forward, how about it?" Song Yong strongly agreed, "very much It should be! If there is a serious matter involving human life, it should be tried by the government. The elder brother is the governor of the government, and this is his duty."
Mrs. Tai was very happy, clasped her hands together and said: "Amitabha, fortunately we have this in-law!"
Marquis He Qing pondered for a moment, then reluctantly nodded, "It would be feasible for Shuntian Mansion to come forward."
Mrs. Su had a look of resentment on her face, "This is great, even the lawsuit has been filed, the Song family is really lively." Song Changqing thought for a moment, walked up to Qiao Sirou and bowed, and said sincerely: "Accordingly, this is not something my daughter should say. However, in the current situation, as the Song family, the daughter is obliged to persuade Madam. Madam, if the lawsuit comes to Shuntian Mansion, our Song family will also gain the reputation of bullying. Our house is the residence of the Marquis, and the official family only It's just a small thousand households. Who believes that the government will report to the public to deal with the lawsuit between these two families? They will definitely criticize our family behind their backs. What's more, the uncle of the Qiao family is the prefect of the government, and the matter involves in-laws. It’s easy to decide. Isn’t this a problem for Uncle Qiao’s family? According to my daughter, it’s better to make it a big deal, let’s make it a small one.”
What she said was sincere and touching.
Mrs. Tai has already nodded repeatedly.
He Qinghou was also moved by it.
"How can a big matter be turned into a small one, and a small matter turned into a law?" Qiao Sirou asked lightly.
Song Changqing looked dignified, knelt down and bowed four times, very solemn.
Song Changchun clenched his fists.
Qiao Sirou's eyes were full of sarcasm.
Song Changqing raised his head and said loudly: "We are both members of the Song family, so we should sacrifice ourselves and self-interest for the sake of the Song family! I beg your wife to put aside worldly thoughts for a while, put down your dignity, and go and apologize to Miss Guan's brother. Comfort him with nice words, and influence him with tolerance and generosity. In this way, no one will talk about the Song family anymore, they will only praise the Song family for their virtues and good deeds, the heart of a Bodhisattva, their benevolence and righteousness..."
Qiao Sirou laughed angrily, "What a good idea you came up with!"
Evil thoughts suddenly arose in Song Changchun's heart.
He gave Song Changqing a cold look, and Song Changqing shivered uncontrollably.
His eyes were as cold as frost and snow, without a trace of warmth.
He Qinghou didn't quite agree, "In this way, it would hurt the face of the Song family." Song Yong agreed with him this time, and gave Song Changqing a look, "Don't talk nonsense if you are ignorant! With such a face, where will the Song family's face go?"
"However, the Song family has always built bridges and paved roads, cared for the old and the poor, who wouldn't boast that everyone in the Song family is a bodhisattva?" Song Changqing argued unwillingly.
Mrs. Su sneered and said: "It's a pity that I didn't cause the trouble. Otherwise, I would have given up my thin face and gone to talk nicely to Guan Shousheng! Compared with the Song family's reputation, my face is nothing ?”
Marquis He Qing was a little unsure, "If you are humbled by him, it would be disrespectful and disrespectful. But if you are too tough... Alas, His Majesty is the same as the late Emperor, he dislikes officials bullying the common people and subordinates the most." Si Lai Want to go, very hesitant.
Song Changqing walked up to Qiao Sirou on his knees, and begged: "Madam, I beg you to wrong yourself for the sake of the Song family! My daughter is willing to go with you!"
Qiao Sirou smiled, "Very good, you can go with me."
She smiled very softly, tenderly.
Mrs. Tai and Marquis Heqing were silent, obviously acquiescing.
It was clear that they both wanted to make peace.
Song Yong was indignant, "My wife has done nothing wrong, I saw it with my own eyes, it is clear! If you want to let that brat from the official's family accompany you, I will not agree!"
Qiao Sirou smiled, "Don't worry, I have my own reasons."
Seeing her confident appearance, Song Yong didn't object anymore, and muttered, "You did nothing wrong, and the Song family is too weak, and they will be looked down upon in the future..."
Qiao Sirou asked Song Changchun to whisper a few words, Song Changchun listened intently, nodded, "Yes, I'll do it right away." He walked out quickly.
"It's great to have a son." Mrs. Su saw it with envy.
She felt that she was better than Qiao Sirou in everything, but not having a son had always been a pain in her heart.
Qiao Sirou took Song Changqing and two personal maids to a secluded courtyard.
After half an hour, Song Changchun came back, "Mother, I did what you told me, Guan Shousheng really stopped making noise and came with me."
"What did you say that works so well?" Song Changqing was taken aback.
Behind Song Changchun was a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, with a long face, thick eyebrows, deep eye sockets, dressed in black, and fierce eyes.After entering the door, he looked at Qiao Sirou suspiciously and angrily, "Who is the real murderer who killed my sister? Tell me!"
Qiao Sirou smiled lightly, and ordered Song Changqing to go out and wait.Song Changqing had a thousand and 1 unwillingness in his heart, but he didn't dare to disobey, silently bent his knees, moved lightly with lotus steps and retreated.
Although she was withdrawing, how could she be willing to ignore it?With his ears pressed against the door, he tried his best to eavesdrop on what was being said inside.
"Nongyu, learn from Bao's and Jinniang's situation today." Qiao Sirou ordered.
A little girl learned with a clear and sweet voice what Bao and Jin Niang had said in the hall, including the words of Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Su, Qiao Sirou and others.This girl is eloquent and her narration is very clear.
There was a creaking sound of joints in the room.
That official Shousheng must have been extremely angry.
Song Changqing couldn't help shivering.
"Erlang, tell me about the wedding banquet and the relationship between the official family and Heqinghou's mansion that you have heard about." Qiao Sirou ordered again.
Song Changchun respectfully agreed, "Yes, mother." However, his next voice was extremely low, and Song Changqing listened outside with his ears open, but he couldn't hear clearly, so he could only be anxious.
The door opened abruptly, and Guan Shousheng's strong and sturdy body appeared in front of Song Changqing, which startled her.
Song Changqing stepped back subconsciously, with a smile on his face.
Guan Shousheng looked at her gloomyly. If eyes could kill, Song Changqing would have died more than once.
Guan Shousheng's tone was gloomy, "Miss Song, sister-in-law came to your residence today for a wedding, and have you been whispering with you for a long time?"
Song Changqing smiled forcefully, "Not really. I am the host, and I will entertain any little girls who come to the banquet. How can I have a long whisper with Lingmei? How can I ignore other guests."
"What if she has already arrived?" Guan Shousheng asked ruthlessly.
Song Changqing was stared at by his sharp and sharp eyes like a falcon, and shivered.
"You, what do you want?" Song Changqing dared to ask.
Guan Shousheng grinned, showing a mouthful of white teeth, "I don't think so."
Song Changqing was terrified.
Chongshanhou's Mansion and Qiaojiaxiang knew that someone was going to make trouble in Heqinghou's Mansion, Chongshanhou and Qiao Siqi couldn't sit still at home, so they went to Song's house to find out what happened.These two are distinguished guests, and the Marquis of Heqing came out to greet them, and he sighed when they met, "It's such a disappointment that such a thing happened in Dalang's good life. Now that the official family is in the mansion, I hope I can persuade you Let him go, stop messing around." The three of them were walking in, when a few people walked up a small path among flowers and trees beside them, they were Qiao Sirou, Song Changchun and Song Changqing, Guan Shousheng and two maids.
The three stopped together.
Qiao Siqi looked at Guan Shousheng and frowned, "This man has a very bad face and is a difficult person to deal with."
Marquis Chongshan also felt the same way, "This man has a murderous look on his brows, he is not a good stubble."
When Song Changqing walked under the shade of the tree, somehow his feet slipped and he couldn't stand firmly.Guan Shousheng was walking in front of her, but as if he had eyes behind him, he turned around quickly, stretched out his arms, and held Song Changqing tightly in his arms.
"Let me go, let me go!" Song Changqing beat him, his face paled with shock, and he struggled desperately.
Guan Shousheng's arms were like iron tongs, she couldn't break free.
He Qinghou and the other three were dumbfounded.
Originally Song Changchun could have helped Song Changqing, but what a coincidence, he stepped on something, slipped and fell to the ground, he gasped in pain.
Poor Song Changqing was hugged tightly by Guan Shousheng for half a cup of tea, He Qinghou and others were in a daze, Song Changchun fell to the ground, and Qiao Sirou, women are timid, seeing this scene, I really can't accept it, fainted.The two maids hurriedly supported her one by one, "Ma'am, what's the matter with you, Ma'am?" They looked panic-stricken.
The scene was awkward and chaotic.
"Let go of me, or I'll grit my teeth and kill myself!" Song Changqing took a breath and shouted sharply.
"Let me let you go, but I will give you your hairpin." Guan Shousheng said rascally, and took off the gold hairpin from Song Changqing's hair.
Song Changqing's face was as white as snow.
Guan Shousheng smiled evilly and let her go.
Song Changqing stood on the ground in a daze, looked at He Qinghou and others on Yonglu Road, then at Song Changchun who fell down, and Qiao Sirou who passed out, even his lips were bloodless.
"It's over, I'm over." Song Changqing sounded a desperate voice in his heart.
