Jinghe turned her head slowly, a pearl-sized tear rolled down her eyes, "Mother," there was hope in her voice, "Is this a woman?"
” Zhou hugged her daughter, and after a while, she felt that her shoulders were wet and hot, she just patted her daughter's back gently, trying to comfort, "Good child, don't cry, don't cry, you have your mother, your mother will make decisions for you, when you give birth to a child, your mother will always be by your side, whoever dares to be unfavorable to you, my mother will fight with him!"
” The afterglow of the setting sun was sprinkled on the flowers and plants in the yard, and the remnants of the sun were like blood.
Wu's child was born and was carried to Yang's house and raised by Yang, because Mrs.
Xu was very sick and could hardly get out of bed, and the people of Jinghetang have legends that as long as Mrs.
Xu closed her eyes, she would hear that Wu came to ask for her life, and the imperial doctor came a few times, only saying that it was a heart disease, and prescribed a few pairs of decoctions, and ate slowly.
Since that day, Jinghe has also suffered from coughing and does not go out much, and Jingwan, as her granddaughter, has been very attentive to Jinghe Hall to serve the sick.
On this day, as soon as she entered the door of the weeping flowers, she heard two mothers-in-law sitting in the shadow of the sun and chattering their teeth.
"The old lady is getting sicker and sicker, and after taking a bowl of medicine yesterday, she felt useless and vomited out half a bowl," said a woman, "Yesterday I was on duty in the hugging building, and I heard the old lady tossing again in the middle of the night, thinking that I hadn't slept all night." ” "Who says it's not, I heard that I've lost a handful of bones," another mother-in-law sighed: "The old lady is such a strong person, I have never seen her like this, is it really entangled by the soul of the fifth wife?"
” "Who knows, there is more than one person in the old lady's hand," said the woman again.
Jing Wan listened to what they said more and more unspeakable, so she coughed lightly twice, and the two mothers-in-law quickly stopped whispering and came forward to say goodbye.
Jingwan got up to the platform under the eaves with her head held high, and was about to take a step, when she suddenly saw a person turn out from behind the screen in the house.
The man was wearing a gowning satin trimmed with embroidered gold peony Zhai phoenix pattern, wearing a golden phoenix treasure hairpin on his high bun, his face was light, with an indifference that was difficult to approach, who was not the third wife Yang.
Jing Wan raised her eyes and looked, and Lianbu stepped forward to ask for peace, "Say hello to my wife, I was about to serve my grandmother." ” "Don't worry," Yang's voice was flat, "Your grandmother just took medicine and slept on it, you come with me, I have a few things to tell you." ” Although Jingwan had some doubts in her heart, she didn't dare not follow, and gave Qinglu a look on the way, asking her to act when she saw the opportunity, and if there was something wrong, she would go to Xu Zhaokuan for help.
Before Qinglu left, she found that her father was sitting on the rose chair under the wall of the main hall of Jianingju.
Jing Wan had some confidence in her heart, and stepped forward to say hello to Xu Zhaokuan.
Yang shouted outside: "Someone!
” Arran came in and saluted.
"Go and invite the eldest wife, the second master, the second wife, the fourth master, and the fourth lady to come over," Yang said again, "and send someone to invite Aunt Jin." ” When she heard the words of Aunt Jin, Jingwan shivered slightly, it was clearly late autumn, but her body was cold for a while, hot for a while, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on her smooth forehead, she stood there, glancing carefully at the corner of her eyes, only to see that there were many sturdy mothers-in-law inside and outside the room, everyone was not smiling, like King Kong in the temple, she was even more flustered in her heart, but she was firmly watched, unable to move.
Yang glanced at Xu Zhaokuan, who was still in the dark, couldn't help sneering, and said with a soothing color: "Don't worry, master, there will be a good show later!"
” Involving Aunt Jin, Xu Zhaokuan can bear to wait.
Before Xu Zhaokuan could ask a question, he heard a voice outside say, "The eldest wife, the second master, and the second wife are here." ” "Please," Yang said.
When the words fell, the Jiang family and the Zhou family came in front and back, and everyone sat down, and after a while, the Yao family and Xu Zhaojia also came.
Aunt Jin was the last, she was wearing a yellow-brown placket tuanfu pattern gown, with pearls on her forehead to wipe her forehead, and she was still smiling when she entered the door, but when she saw everyone, her joy was a little more restrained.
Xu Zhaokuan felt dazzling when he saw the smile on her face, she had been against her mother for many years, didn't she just can't see their mother and son, if it weren't for so many people, Xu Zhaokuan really wanted to go up and give Aunt Jin a few kicks!
"Everyone has arrived, what's the matter, tell me quickly," Xu Zhaokuan said impatiently.
Yang stood up and spoke with a bit of coldness and majesty, "The day before yesterday, Mother He came to tell me one thing, saying that when the fourth girl went to serve the sick, she told the old lady that the fetus of the fifth brother and sister was originally handed over to the third girl to take care of, and now that such a thing has happened, the third girl is to blame, and said that she heard some rumors that the third girl did it intentionally," she said and looked at Jing Wan and asked, "Is there such a thing?"
” Jing Wan didn't know why Mother He would tell Yang's ears, could it be that the old lady was too sick to be a director?
She quickly calmed down again, the discord between the Yang family and Jing He is well known, she will not favor Xu Jinghe, she thought so, and said: "My daughter did say such a thing. ” Zhou Shi had already tightened the handkerchief in her hand, she was now more calm than ever, she knew that easy seizures would not only be useless but also self-defeating, so she only frowned and continued to listen.
Yang suddenly turned a pair of cold star-like eyes, "Tell me, why did she do this?"
” "Naturally, it's for the fifth brother!"
Jing Wan seemed to be a little excited, and the speed of her speech became faster and faster: "The fifth brother is now more and more outstanding in his knowledge and martial arts, and he is the most outstanding among the brothers in this generation, even better than Kui Xing, although the eldest brother is also good, but he is not a grandson in the end, and the fifth brother is the most promising to inherit the title, so the third sister wants to get rid of the child in the womb of the fifth aunt for the fifth brother." ” A sneer appeared on the corner of Yang's lips, and the sneer gradually spread to the entire face, and the sudden change in complexion made Jing Wan on the side shudder.
Jingwan was a little creepy, Aunt Jin felt that the situation was not quite right, she sat on an embroidery pier in the corner, and was about to slip away quietly, but when she turned her head, she saw that the door had been held by two sturdy mothers-in-law, she stood up, and was sat back on the embroidery pier by the shoulders of the two mothers-in-law.
The corner of Yang's eyes swept here, and he snorted coldly: "Reasoning, this matter involves the fifth brother and sister, and the old lady should be in charge, but the old lady is getting sicker and sicker now, so I invited the two sisters-in-law and the fourth brother and sister to come over and break this public case in front of everyone, so as not to make the fifth brother and sister go unclear." ” Xu Zhaokuan was a little impatient and asked, "Since this is the case, I will send the relevant people and others, and you will know as soon as you ask." ” "What the master said is," Yang smiled, a hint of pride flashed on his face, "I was afraid that the news would leak and make those people ruin the traces, so I grabbed people and interrogated them first," saying that, waving his hand slightly, Yalan nodded and retreated, and brought two people in after a while.
