The Ups and Downs of Mrs. Yipin

Chapter 48 Clearing the Fog ([-])

Fang Xiuyi's dream was full of evil spirits, she was so frightened that she couldn't escape even if she wanted to, and there was nowhere to hide if she wanted to.After finally waking up, he opened his eyes and saw that the light in front of him was so dark that he seemed to see that rotten face again.She sat up suddenly, and Shan Xing immediately came to the bed when she heard the sound, and lifted the bed curtain.

"Ma'am! You're awake!"

"Shanxing." Fang Xiuyi held his beating heart and said weakly, "What time is it?"

"Ma'am, it's three quarters of the unitary hour. Ma'am, let's have a sip of tea first. Mother Shi has been watching from the stove."

"Okay, you can pour me a cup of hot water, no tea, just a cup of plain water." Drinking tea, you can taste it on weekdays, but now, she just wants to drink a few sips of water to quench her thirst.

Shan Xing brought over the teacup, Shi Mama called for hot water, after Fang Xiuyi drank the water, she washed up a bit.

"What about the adults?"

"Your Excellency has been guarding Madam before, and someone came to answer at that time." Mother Shi took the cloth towel and replied.

"Oh. Mama Shi, when the guests leave, tell your lord that I'm awake." Fang Xiuyi was eager to know what happened. She obviously buried clothes, so why did she turn into a corpse.

Shan Xing brought some meals and put them on the table, "Ma'am, you haven't eaten all day, and Mama Shi said it would be better to eat some vegetarian food."

Fang Xiuyi also felt hungry, picked up a spoon and took a sip of porridge.However, as soon as she drank the porridge into her mouth, she seemed to smell that rotten smell again, and an overwhelming feeling rushed from her stomach to her throat, and she couldn't help it, so she vomited it out.

Shan Xing quickly brought the spittoon, Shi's mother also reacted quickly, immediately put the food away, and poured a glass of water over.

Fang Xiuyi felt that he had vomited out all the food he ate the day before, and in the end there was nothing but bitterness.

"Ma'am, take a sip of water." Mother Shi knew what Fang Xiuyi saw this morning, but she didn't expect such a big reaction from her.

In fact, Fang Xiuyi was not only uncomfortable seeing the rotten picture, but more because of her emotional refusal to accept it.She couldn't figure out such a weird change.

"What's going on?" At this moment, He Huai'an walked in, and he vaguely heard the commotion next door.

Fang Xiu couldn't even vomit out the bitterness, only retching.

"My lord, Madam may have some stomach discomfort."

Fang Xiuyi was finally able to take a break, and said to He Huai'an intermittently: "Master, please stay away for a while, wait for them to clean up."

"It's okay." He Huai'an didn't seem to see the stain on the ground, took the water glass, and served Fang Xiuyi to drink, "Okay, it's okay, take a few deep breaths."

He Huai'an's arrival seemed to calm Fang Xiuyi's heart, she tried to get rid of distracting thoughts, took a few deep breaths, and the nauseating feeling really faded a lot.

"Shan Xing, go and help Madam cut some fruit." Seeing Fang Xiuyi's reaction, He Huai'an also knew that she couldn't eat anything.

Mama Shi quickly cleaned the place with her hands and feet, and when she was about to light incense, she was stopped by Fang Xiuyi.

"Mother Shi, don't smoke the incense. Open the window first, let the smell go away, and smoke it later." If the fragrance is mixed with a sour smell, it may be even more unbearable.

Mother Shi opened the window lightly, and He Huai'an took a cloak and put it on Fang Xiuyi's body.

"Thank you, my lord." Fang Xiu wrapped herself tightly, "I'm sorry for making my lord tired."

"No problem." He Huai'an also sat down, "You don't have to take it to heart, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"I know, but I can't accept it." Although it's just a tomb, it was dug in the name of the deceased after all. Another corpse was put in.

"I understand." He Huai'an divided the fruits into small plates, and signaled Mama Shi and Shan Xing to retreat, "Originally, I didn't want to alarm the local government, but now, this matter must be settled by the public. We may have to keep a few more The day is here."

"I understand." Fang Xiuyi ate a piece of apple. It was soft and overheated. Although it wasn't crunchy and sweet, it was just right for the moment. "Well, have you checked your identity?"

"Not yet. But the man's clothes are of high quality, and his work is being inspected." He Huai'an seemed to be pointing to the end of his speech, and it all depended on Fang Xiu's ability to comprehend.

"Oh. What if he is not a local?" The high-quality clothing means that he is not an ordinary person, and the scope is narrow. If the person has any characteristics, it is easier to find out the identity, but if it is a foreigner, it is hard to say.

"If you are a foreigner, it is a bit difficult, but for a person with this status, the family members should be very anxious, maybe someone reported missing."

"Yes. Any accessories?"

"No." Except for a suit of clothes, there is nothing else.

"It seems that it shouldn't be some deep hatred. For love? For money?"

"Don't think too much, it will come out soon."

"Does your lord know something?" He Huai'an didn't say things that he was not sure about. The higher the official position, the more cautious he was in his speech.

He Huai'an didn't have much experience in dealing with women, but he also knew that Fang Xiuyi was smart, even if he said it so casually, he could still find loopholes.

"The local governor, the inspector, the governor of Yingtianfu, etc., I have met. The local pusher is a well-informed person. He judged from the pair of boots that they were made by a shop in Yingtianfu. .He should be local."

After Fang Xiu heard this, she felt that she should find out soon. However, He Huai'an's trip was to relocate for her mother. Now that such an accident happened, I don't know if it will have any impact.

"My lord, you have alarmed the magistrates now, does the emperor mind?"

"I've already written the memorial, and asked Wufu to send it back to the capital urgently." Although this incident caused a stir in the local area, it was generally caused by private matters. He Huai'an decided to write the memorial, and there was no official notification manage.

"Oh, I didn't expect such an accident. If I catch the damn villain, I must kick him a few times." Fang Xiuyi took a few bites of the apple resentfully. I don’t quite understand, can you explain it to me. Let’s talk about this envoy first.”

He Huaian felt that Fang Xiuyi was a very contradictory person. In terms of things, he was obviously literate and able to distinguish right from wrong, but he knew almost nothing about national policies.

"All localities announce that the chief of the government envoy department is the chief envoy. From the second rank, he is in charge of political affairs. According to the inspector, he is the third rank, and he is in charge of punishment. In Yingtianfu, the chief is Fu Yin, and the rank is the same as that of Shuntianfu. Pushing officials, the seventh rank, state The government is in charge of criminal names." He Huai'an didn't say too much, just a little bit about what is involved so far.

Fang Xiuyi listened carefully, muttering to himself, trying to write it down.

"My lord, if you have time in the future, you can tell me these things. I don't have a good memory, so I can just say a little bit every time. Before, I was mainly running around for my life every day, and I only thought about food, clothing, housing and transportation. Now, I am also Mrs. Yipin, the children all have titles, the things they need to face are different, and the things they pay attention to have also changed. So, the platform determines the vision.” Fang Xiuyi’s life has stabilized now, and her thinking The way gradually has the influence of the previous life.

"Platform?" He Huai'an didn't understand.

"Ah, the platform, the platform is, if I stand in front of the door, I can only see the yard, but if I stand upstairs, I can see things outside the yard, and if I stand higher, I can see Seeing farther and more." Fang Xiuyi didn't know what what she said would make He Huai'an think, but she could only do this, she couldn't make herself completely like a woman of this era.

He Huai'an nodded, "Okay, I will try my best to tell you."

Fang Xiuyi looked at He Huai'an under the light, her perfect face was extraordinarily illusory, she had had unreal thoughts many times, she didn't know how such an outstanding character could be born in such a remote village.

At this time, Shan Xing came in to report that someone came to see He Huai'an.

this late?Fang Xiu stood up and looked at He Huai'an, who would come here so late?Is it related to the dead man?

"You rest first, I'll go take a look." Although He Huai'an understood Fang Xiuyi's thoughts, he also knew that it must be about the case, but he hadn't seen anyone yet, so it was inconvenient for Fang Xiuyi to say anything.

"Okay, okay, go quickly." Fang Xiuyi thought that if he came so late, it might be that something had happened, "If there is any news, please let me know."

He Huai'an smiled, turned around and left.

Fang Xiuyi turned around anxiously on the ground, she wished she could eavesdrop on the door.

"Ma'am, let's rest for a while." Mother Shi said to Fang Xiuyi, after getting along for a while, she really likes this lady a little bit.

"Mother Shi, tell me, tell me, have you seen such a thing? Have you heard of such a thing?"

"Ma'am, such a thing is probably rare in a hundred years."

"Yes, yes, tell me, how did such a rare thing happen to me?" Fang Xiuyi linked the bad things to himself again.When I left Yingtian Mansion, I also left with the reputation of the God of Decline. Now, although I have returned here with glory and glory, such a bizarre thing happened. How did God arrange this?

"Ma'am, don't think so much. The matter hasn't come to light yet, Ma'am must not think wildly. Besides, there is an adult here." Mother Shi didn't know what Fang Xiuyi was worried about, but she could see that she was a little restless.

"By the way, Mama Shi, where does your lord put the old lady?" Fang Xiuyi suddenly remembered this matter.It was originally planned that when the coffin was raised, it was ready to return to the capital, but now it has been delayed so much, what will happen to the coffin?
"At the back of the yard, a vacant room was cleared up. My lord bought ice and put the old lady there first."

ice?I'm afraid it's hard to buy ice this season, and so many things happened in this day.I fainted and didn't do anything. Although there were men running errands, it was very laborious for He Huai'an to arrange everything.

Fang Xiu waited and waited until He Huai'an came over, and it was not easy to get someone to ask. She had slept a lot during the day, and now she was not sleepy at all, so she thought of her lonely mother-in-law.

"Shan Xing, help me put on my clothes, I'll go to the back to see the old lady." No, she has to go and have a look, otherwise she won't be able to sleep at night.When she was buried underground, she could still feel a little bit of comfort. The old lady went to another world, but now that she moved to the ground, she felt that her mother-in-law was still by her side, so she wanted to go and accompany her for a while.

"Madam, it's already very late, why don't we go there tomorrow." Shan Xing persuaded Fang Xiuyi to go to see a corpse that had been buried for several years at such a late hour.

"It's okay, you stay here, it's fine for Mother Shi to accompany me." Fang Xiuyi knew what Shan Xing meant, and she was not angry, after all, people have different ideas, not to mention Shan Xing also had good intentions.

"Ma'am, I, I will go with Madam too." Seeing that Fang Xiu had made up her mind, Shan Xing did not dare to stay by herself.

"Okay." As soon as Fang Xiu got dressed, Mama Shi carried a lantern, and the three of them went out to the backyard.But as soon as he went out, he met He Huai'an's guards.

"lady!"

"Four Seasons." This is one of He Huai'an's guards, who is mainly in charge of Fang Xiuyi's safety recently, "I'm going to the backyard to see the old lady."

Siji thought for a while before saying, "Okay, ma'am."

In the backyard, the main room, and under the eaves, two funeral lanterns were hung.The door of the room was open, and there were two guards standing at the door. When they saw Fang Xiuyi, they all saluted respectfully.

"You don't need to be too polite, I just came to see the old lady."

Mother Shi asked Shan Xing to put out the lantern in her hand and wait outside the door.

The mother-in-law's coffin was parked in the middle of the room, and because of the ice, a chill came over her face.Fang Xiu touched the coffin and walked around it. He Huai'an had ordered the coffin to be nailed to death.Incense was lit in front of the coffin, futons were spread on the ground, and there were ashes burned by paper in the brazier.She knelt on the futon, burned two pieces of paper, kowtowed three times, and looked at the silent coffin quietly. After a long time, she began to speak.

"Mother, please forgive me for only coming to pick you up now. Some time ago, Zhuang Zhuang and Niu Niu and I were still counting money together. We have collected enough hundreds of taels of silver, thinking that we can almost take you to the capital. But , a series of accidents happened, unexpected. Finally, I can come to pick up my mother with adults today. But, mother, something unexpected happened again. But please rest assured, the adults are already dealing with it. We are very happy. You can leave here soon, then you will see Zhuang Zhuang and Niu Niu soon." Fang Xiuyi seemed to be chatting with her mother-in-law as before, "Mother, a few days ago, I saw Niu Niu quietly I carved a small statue for you, and I pretended not to know. Niu Niu has carved it so well now, it looks real."

Someone next to him also knelt down, Fang Xiu knew it was He Huai'an as soon as he saw the hem of the clothes.

"My lord. I just came to talk to my mother."

"I know." He Huai'an looked at the coffin blankly, "I think mother must have been very angry with me when she was alive."

"No, my lord. Before she was alive, my mother always said that her longevity was blessed by heaven, and she would be fine. It was all because of the flood at home." Fang Xiuyi knew that her mother-in-law missed her son very much, but she rarely said it in front of her, and was angry. The words were never said.

"I got a good name in the exam and became a high official, but I didn't let my mother see it."

"My lord, don't blame yourself. I heard people say that the dead will become a star in the sky. So, whatever you do, mother can see it." Fang Xiuyi has the ability to comfort people since he came to this world. That is growing stronger.

"Really? You have heard many stories, but I am willing to believe this one." He Huai'an turned his face to look at Fang Xiuyi, "Why did you change your name to Xiuyi?"

Fang Xiu was taken aback for a moment, what did the topic change have to do with her name.

"Didn't I say that I always felt unlucky in the past, and wanted to change my name to see if I could change it. Xiuyi, excellent and unique, has a good meaning. It's just that I didn't expect that changing my name would not change my luck. If I used to be able to..." Fang Xiuyi didn't go on talking, in fact, this thought had occupied her mind for a long time.She regretted that she didn't learn any specialties and techniques in her previous life, and she even forgot a lot of recipes in this life.She always thinks that if she was good at singing and dancing before, as well as playing piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, she wouldn't be in such a mess, unable to support even an elderly child.

When Fang Xiu thought of this, she couldn't help crying. He Huai'an, who originally wanted to ask her something, couldn't say anything when she saw Fang Xiuyi's tears.

He Huai'an said that he would keep watch at night and let Fang Xiuyi go to rest early, but Fang Xiuyi also insisted on following, so He Huai'an had to reluctantly agree, and asked Mama Shi to bring thick clothes and quilts, etc., for fear that Fang Xiuyi would get sick.However, it was probably too comfortable, Fang Xiuyi actually knelt on the futon and fell asleep, and fell on He Huai'an's body.
