The feigned madness was exposed by Li Haitang, and Chen's wild laughter came to an abrupt end, and she finally experienced the taste of happiness and sadness."
Miss Li, are you really only ten years old?""
If Sister-in-law Chen is suspicious, you can go and invite your two masters to the ancestral hall to turn over the family tree."
Li Haitang handed the broom back to the old woman who was in charge of cleaning the yard, turned around and instructed Wu Yinling: "Sister of the Wu family, please go to the gate and invite the girls from all the provinces to come in to see the church." ”Wu Yinling bowed and led the two little maids to the gate of the Pavilion.Passing by the ginkgo tree, he squinted at the embarrassed Chen Yan, guessing that Li Haitang invited the girls from all over the province to come in, most of them wanted to deal with Chen Yan's wife in front of everyone, kill chickens and monkeys, knock on the door and shock the tiger.At dusk, the sun sets, and the night breeze in early spring is still as cool as ice.The small courtyard is lit by countless candles and lanterns, and more than 20 chairs are arranged on both sides of the stone steps outside the main house, in an orderly manner.There is a main seat in the main house, the left and right deputy seats, Li Haitang sits in the main seat, and Li Junshen and Wu Yinling are on the left and one on the right.There were more than 20 girls from various provinces, holding their breath and bowing their heads on the road in the center of the courtyard.Suddenly, I heard Yang Yan's grandmother shouting under the eaves porch outside the main house: "The girls from all the provinces have come to meet Miss Li.Etiquette ——!
”The long tail echoed in the silent courtyard, and then the restrained girls curtsied their knees and saluted in unison: "Meet Miss Fengxian!"
”"Excuse me!"
Inside the house, a young and clear voice came out slowly, and the girls still maintained the posture of Wanfu until Yang Changyan shouted loudly: "Excuse me!"
”Only then did he stand up straight without shaking his shoulders or shaking, lowering his eyes and bowing his head from beginning to end, and strictly abiding by the rules."
Throne!"
The clear voice came out again, this time there was no need to wait for Yang Yan's concubine to pass the gift, all the girls had already thanked them in unison, and they had passed the Wanfu ceremony to be considered "courtesy", and they all lowered their heads and retreated to their own chairs and sat down slowly.Li Haitang played with the jade stone carved with a bird that Mo Shenghuan gave her, and her obsidian eyes flashed with a sparkling curiosity to look at each girl, and she tilted her small body and asked Li Junshen in the left subordinate."
Brother Shen, which girl is Mrs.
Li's second daughter, Li Yunhua?"
Li Junshen's gaze swept over and pointed to the third little girl on the left side of Yonglu, "That is the second sister Yunhua, she is one year older than you, and she is the unruly lady in the family." ”Li Haitang smiled slyly and said leisurely: "Hehe, I really don't know if I should be an enemy of Mrs.
Li?"
Or are you a friend?
A few days ago, the eldest daughter suffered a big loss from me, and today I sent the second daughter as a hostage.If the second daughter is injured and goes back again, I wonder if Mrs.
Li will send the third daughter to test me again?
”Li Junshen smiled dumbly, but blamed him: "You still don't like to change people."
Didn't you have an idea you had already made?
”Li Haitang didn't admit or deny it, and sneered: "I didn't let them change, what do you blame me?"
”"Yes, yes, everything is their own decision, and it has nothing to do with you."
Li Junshen looked helplessly and dotingly at the arrogant begonia, and the more he looked at it, the more he liked it.Li Haitang raised her little face, changed her expression in the blink of an eye, and said with disgust: "Mrs.
Li is really good at raising her daughter."
The eldest daughter is rude, and the second daughter is rude and willful.If this pampered temper marries the son of the enemy family in the future, it will really take revenge and blood hatred. ”Li Junshen sighed helplessly, Wu Yinling covered his lips and snickered, and the maids waiting next to him also lowered their heads and smiled.If this word reaches the Zhongzheng Mansion of the Li family, it is estimated that Mrs.
Li will try her best to calculate her again."
The big girl is careful that there is no virtue in her mouth, and trouble comes from her mouth."
Yang Yanyan came in and reminded in a whisper, kneeling on the ground to add charcoal to the small copper furnace in Haitang's arms.Li Haitang made a soft "um" sound, and saw that more than 20 little girls outside were already shivering from the cold, their faces were pale, and the hands that were originally folded on their knees were also quietly holding each other to keep warm.Seeing that the time was almost up, Haitang instructed Yang Changchang: "Bring Chen Changyan over." ”Sister-in-law Yang responded, got up and went out to instruct the two old women to escort Sister-in-law Chen, who was tied under the magnolia tree in the backyard, to the front yard.There was silence in the small courtyard, and the cold wind of the early spring night blew the girls' little faces red, and blew up their meticulously combed black buns.A fierce wind blew, and Li Haitang finally relented, and quietly told Li Yanchang to prepare more charcoal braziers and put them next to the girls to keep warm, so as not to really freeze them.Wu Yinling praised loudly: "Miss Li is kind-hearted, it is really troublesome to prepare so many charcoal fires for the sake of our bodies. ”Li Haitang smiled and said, "It should be!"
You're welcome!
In case you get sick and stay in the Pavilion, I will pay a large amount of medical expenses, which is not cost-effective. ”"Ahem!
Ahem, ahem!
”Li Junshen, who was drinking tea, choked with a red face and a thick neck, glanced at Begonia angrily, and took a sip of tea to suppress the discomfort in his throat.He is also going to praise it, so that the girls outside know that Begonia is actually a very kind person, not as unbearable as they imagined.But the good impression was only a sip of tea, and her self-defeating miser almost killed him with half his life.Li Haitang blinked his big eyes and looked at Li Junshen with a sly smile, and quipped in a low voice: "Brother Shen looks so beautiful with his face up!"
”"Humph!
Less sycophants!
”Li Junshen reached out to touch her head, but finally landed on her shoulder and pressed it slightly."
Brother Shen, don't worry!"
Li Haitang comforted him meaningfully, and turned his head to see several old women in the courtyard kneeling on the road in the middle of the courtyard with Chen Yanchang.At this time, Chen Yan's long gray hair had been combed into a bun, revealing an ugly old face with vertical and horizontal scars, a cloth was stuffed in her mouth, her hands were tied behind her back and she was kneeling, and her dirty jacket and skirt were muddy and dry.Li Haitang coughed to remind the girls of their attention, and the obsidian eyes looked around to make sure that each girl's eyes were focused on her before she slowly spoke."
This is the old sister-in-law given to me by the second lady of the Li family's Nanfu, and I used to have a deep relationship with my master and servant.In recent days, she has bullied others, plotted to kill me, kidnapped me, and now is trying to sow discord, claiming that Mrs.
Li forced my mother to death.Naturally, I don't believe what an unfaithful and unrighteous old slave says. ”Sweeping his eyes to the girls present, Li Haitang continued: "I wanted to kill her with a rod according to the rules of the Pavilion, but I couldn't bear to do it because of my old feelings, and I wanted to spare her life.After thinking about it, I didn't have an idea, so I asked the girls from all the prefectures to discuss how to deal with the treacherous Chen Yannan. ”Li Yunhua was the first to stand up, and angrily pointed at Chen Yanyu and scolded: "When did my mother force Miss Li's mother to death, you old man spewed blood."
Obviously, you were poisoned by Mr.
Painter, and you wanted to hold Miss Li hostage in exchange for an antidote.Now that the matter is broken, you are taking my mother to blame, you are really a black-hearted slave. ”Still feeling that the scolding was not enough to vent her anger, she turned to salute Li Haitang and said loudly: "Please ask Miss Li to be the master of my mother and severely punish this black-hearted slave."
According to the rules of the Li Clan's Zhongzheng Mansion, such an unfaithful and unrighteous slave should be cut out of his tongue, gouged out his eyes, cut off his hands and feet, and thrown into a mass grave to fend for himself!
”"Presumptuous!"
