Po Li was four days earlier than Duan Haofang.
She hurried all night. Fortunately, before leaving, she remembered to take away all the things and money she had saved over the past few years, so she didn't suffer much along the way. Whenever there was a way, she took someone’s car and walked for a while. Fortunately, she also followed Duan Zhang’s back to the Duan’s old house. After going around some roads to find a place, she then inquired and found the Duan’s new house, waiting for her to be there. When I knocked on the door at the back door and said that I wanted to see Duan Zhang, the Duan family who came to answer the door didn’t want her to come in when they saw her, so it was similar to the beggar on the side of the road. She said she used to serve Duan Zhang. , Duan’s subordinates guessed that this person came to fight Qiufeng, Duan’s grandfather had a good reputation, Duan’s subordinates let her in, fetched water, washed her face and combed her hair, and brought her hot noodle soup for her to eat. Then he smiled and told her that our master is not seeing guests. Should you go back first and come back another day
Granny Li put down the bowl and wiped her mouth, and said she wanted to see Granny Jiang next to the Duan Zhang clan. She wondered if it was better to find a woman she knew before and lead her in quietly than to talk nonsense with these people.
The mother-in-law next to Duan Zhang's had been sold a few years ago, and now she is waiting for the person whom the master Duan asked the second sister to buy newly after she came back. There is no such person.
When Mrs. Li heard this, she hurriedly said a few more people, but she was no longer there now. Hearing this, Duan's subordinates suspected that she was a liar, so they asked someone to chase her out. Madam Li just couldn't get up on the ground. She cried and patted her thighs, and refused to leave.
When Duan's subordinates saw this, they discussed whether they should just reply with three "milks" and "milks"? What if it's really an old man? It's not appropriate to drive out.
But when Mrs. Li heard the three "milks" and "milks", she woke up. She knew that the lotus was the person who belonged to these three "milks" and "milks." . When Mrs. Li saw this person, she was about to leave. She hurriedly stepped forward to stop her. Since she was going to see the noble person, she should be allowed to freshen up and change her clothes or something, so that she wouldn't be beautiful.
The man saw that this was a truth, so he asked the lady who came to the stove to take her to the house to change clothes. The woman fetched water for her, told her to pull the curtains in the room, take off her clothes, and simply scrub and change clothes. She took the opportunity to give her private money to the woman, begging her: "I do. The important matter! Never dare to lie to the old sister! Please let me see the third wife! If you don’t believe me, you can bring it to the third wife, and she must know it!" Bellyband.
The woman stuffed the money into her arms, looked at her for a few moments, but believed it three or four points, taught her to hide in the house, carried her red belly and went out, and said to the humanity who sent her: "This person is afraid of things. I went quietly just now."
The man smiled and said, "Sure enough, he is a liar!"
When the people left, the woman ran to the courtyard of the third room, and quietly saw Duan Zhangshi. There was a "woman" who was about fifty years old outside the road and said that she had served his wife before and wanted to come in and talk. But I was afraid that Duan Zhang had no time to see her, so I asked her to come in first and ask if the third wife would have time to see her.
Duan Zhangshi heard that she had served her before, so he asked who it was
The woman said she was a woman surnamed Li, looking at the black and thin, there was a big mole on her left ear.
Duan Zhangshi remembered, the woman looked at her face "color", and took out the red bellyband again. When Duan Zhangshi saw the red bellyband, her face "color" slowed down, and "touched" with a smile. : "She did it for Fang'er." He said to the woman, "You can bring her in."
The mother-in-law brought the mother-in-law Li over. Duan Zhangshi really missed it at first sight. It was the old man in the past, and he immediately pulled over and talked about the old things. She was lonely when no one talked in the room, and Lady Li came to see her'specially', which naturally moved her even more. The previous three-pointers have now been changed into tenths.
Seeing that Duan Zhangshi liked her coming so much, Old Lady Li let go of her heart, spoke with her for a while, and laughed for a while. Duan Zhangshi said that he would keep her for a few days, and then he asked Wei Yuzhen and her second sister to come over to see her, and then took the hand of the old lady Li and said, "You will get married when you go back, haven't you seen him? The daughter-in-law "women" also gave birth to two sons to Fang'er! Called over for a while, you also have a look, let the two small ones also kowtow to you, anyway, Fang'er has also eaten your "milk", you can be a thousand It’s better not to be outside!"
When Mrs. Li heard that she was going to let the second sister come over, she thought of'business' as if she had caused a whip to be drawn. I quickly stood up, tears fell out, knelt down and held Duan Zhang's leg, sobbing softly.
Duan Zhang cried when he saw this abruptly, guessing that something happened to her and begging her for help, so he hurriedly asked someone to help him and persuaded: "Get up and say anything. If you have a big "milk", I will definitely help if I can help!"
Granny Li asked Duan Zhang to drive everyone away, so she learned the things over there in a low voice.
When Duan Zhang heard that the two children in the old house where Duan Haofang had died, he was so frightened that his face turned pale, and when he heard that it was the lotus instructor from the Wu family. I won't say this anymore.
Granny Li knelt there, hugging Duan Zhang’s legs, crying, as if she hadn’t been running fast, I’m afraid she would be dead. The second master made the lotus “lost” dizzy, and just ignored it, even scolding. Did not scold her. She fled here after a lot of hardships, just to ask Duan Zhangshi to give her justice.
"Please madam for justice for the young master!" Old lady Li cried and became lively, as if she had been wronged by God.
Duan Zhangshi made her cry flustered, and was frightened by her words. What can we do if this happens? There was a mess in her mind, and she asked Wei Yuzhen to discuss it even though Mrs. Li was still alive.
Wei Yuzhen had long heard someone crying in the Duan Zhang's room next door, wondering who was so bold? When I came over, I saw an unknown woman lying on the ground and beating her thighs, crying so much that she couldn't lift her head. Duan Zhangshi over there seemed to be fidgeting, and when he saw her, he hurriedly pulled over and learned so and so and so and so, and finally took her hand and said with no idea: "You said, what can I do now?"
Wei Yuzhen was silly when she heard that she was talking about the second sister instructing the Wu family to secretly kill Duan Haofang's concubine? This is a big deal! She didn't feel completely faint, so she let Duan Zhangshi chase her old lady into the small house next to her to make her look better, and then she went outside and asked Master Duan to come back.
Duan Zhang's circling around the house like a fly without his head, and later said that I would call the second sister over first and ask! See what she has to say! After a while, I said this is no good! She must deny it!
Wei Yuzhen didn't have any idea beside her, so she could only persuade her to wait until Master Duan came back to talk about anything. At this moment, I don't know if what the woman said is true or false. What if there are other reasons
Duan Zhangshi sat down and said solemnly: "This is impossible! How dare she dare to make up such a lie? The child must have been accidentally!" Since the child is dead, there must be a saying how to die, Mrs. Li Duan Zhangshi didn't dare to believe Shifen, and he already believed it by eight minutes. What she is now embarrassing about is how to deal with such a sinister second sister! Wouldn't she ruin this home if she didn't deal with it? She has such a vicious mind, it is not impossible that one day both of them will be harmed!
Wei Yuzhen was also afraid that if this matter was true, she would really stop her from letting Duan Zhangshi deal with it. She was afraid that she would have her own business in the future. After all, it was a life. Thinking that if the second sister really dared to tell her to kill Duan Haofang's concubine secretly, how terrible this person would be! With such a person living in her own family, what should she do when she uses them to harm others
But she still persuaded Duan Zhang to wait for Master Duan to come back, and do nothing for now.
Duan Zhangshi couldn't sit still. She felt that Master Duan was not as careful as her, and he was most likely to be deceived by the second sister. If he waits for him to come back, if the second sister makes a sophistry and fools the past, wouldn't it be broken
This matter must be dealt with! Must be fast! Don't let her fool around!
Regardless of Wei Yuzhen's obstruction, Duan Zhang ran to find the second wife. Originally, this kind of important matter should be discussed with the big wife, but one, she has to prepare for this matter and there is still a little room for maneuvering. Finding the big wife is equivalent to stabbing the head of the house, so there is nothing to say. Secondly, the eldest wife is now in charge of the house, not when the second wife was the housekeeper. Duan Zhangshi used to think that the second wife was too annoying, but now he feels that the second wife is too annoying, and the second wife is close by two points.
For this kind of family matter, she still finds it appropriate to discuss with her own status and status. Wei Yuzhen is just a junior, and the idea she makes is not reliable, isn't it
The second wife saw that she came to serve tea naturally, and when she saw her face was dark and serious, she asked her to let the girl down, and closed the doors and windows before she came to talk mysteriously, thinking that this person was mad again. Is it possible to see retribution again? While still laughing, I heard Duan Zhangshi telling her about it.
The second wife was startled when she heard that, and then said: "... You said that a woman who had served you before came and told you that the second sister's family killed one of Haofang's sons?" Her first reaction: Duan Zhang Shi's crazy, nonsense. Once again, Duan Zhang’s eyes were staring at her, and he was a little drumming:… Is it true
Lord God! It's a world-shaking time!
The second wife immediately tried to pull Duan Zhang's spirits to see the old lady Li again to ask her clearly, but Duan Zhang's said that she wouldn't let her see anything, and only talked about her, you give me an idea first!
The second wife's eyes flashed in excitement, and she patted her thigh. Tell mother quickly! Is this a trivial matter? How can I hide it! Is it possible that father and mother don’t know when the officer arrives at the door
Duan Zhang's was frightened and shook his throat and shouted, "I still want to see an official!?"
The second wife didn't know about seeing officials or not, but she was just desperately trying to push the matter up in front of her, and quickly frightened her, didn't she? All killed! Do you think this is a trivial matter!
Duan Zhangshi never expected this! She refused to move as soon as she heard it, and the second wife used the strength of eating "milk" to drag her into the old lady's room. It happened that the older lady was also there and asked the old lady what to eat at night, so let the second wife poke her. Out. Duan Zhang shrank in the corner as soon as he hit the door, panicking as if she was the one who was about to be tossed to see the official. The second wife flew with her brows and said with a gesture of "Lose" dance to learn the matter again. The old lady turned pale, and the old lady went to see Duan Zhangshi.
Duan Zhangshi can only wave his hands, and even shook his head vaguely saying that I don't know anything! It's all said by the woman!
The second wife was very excited, so she wanted people to call both the wife and the second sister to confront her! The eldest lady glared at her, then turned to the old lady and said, "Mother, you can't say anything about this! If we let outsiders know about it, our family will lose face!"
This is true. The old lady naturally knows this truth when she has been a family for a lifetime. Besides, the lady Li said everything. Who knows if what she said is true or false? Seeing the second wife as if she was afraid that the world would not be "chaotic", the old woman taught her: "The second one! You heard the wind and shouted when the rain came. When can you change the "problem"? No rules!" Something really happened, not just a matter of the three-bedroom family, it was a matter of the Duan family! The second child's eyelids are too shallow!
The second wife let the lesson be taught and curled her lips and said: "This is not what I said, it was all the third younger siblings! I only listened to her..." She didn't finish her words, just glanced at Duan Zhangshi.
The old lady naturally turned her head and stared at Duan Zhangshi, cursing: "You are also a worthless man! You can believe everything if you make a fool of yourself? According to you, the woman stayed there to take care of the two children. If a child is gone, I have to ask her! She is so filthy, she actually said that another child killed this one! Can such words be taken seriously?"
Duan Zhangshi didn't understand until he heard this, but when he saw the old lady, the eldest wife, and the second lady all looked at her like a fool, it seemed that she was too stupid to be deceived by her wife, and she couldn't help but want to argue, and said:" … The lady said, it’s the lotus from the Wu family… ”
The eldest lady hurriedly intercepted her words: "Then you should also ask the lotus! What does it have to do with the second sister?"
Duan Zhangshi also wanted to say that the lotus is from the Wu family, but the old lady followed the words of the big lady: "Exactly! It's just that this old lady is a girl but it's hard to tell! Like she said, the child should just run away as soon as she died. When she comes out, what does she want to run away? Just what she wants to say, wait until the funeral is over there and come back with Haofang, it's because Haofang doesn't believe her, there are still elders there, so you can tolerate it. He is a kid hiding it?"
When Duan Zhangshi heard what he meant, it seemed that he was going to push the matter to Granny Li. Why
The second wife didn't answer the conversation, she wanted to laugh when she saw the lawsuit on Duan Zhangshi's face, this fool! So what is Mrs. Li? Who is the second sister? By comparing the two sides, you should know which head is heavier and which is lighter! Not to mention, the second sister gave birth to two great-grandchildren to the Duan family. There is Wu family behind her. She stepped back and said that this is really related to the second sister, and the Duan family will surely protect the second sister! A child born to an invisible wife is still knocked to death. Who cares? Besides, it's too late to cover up this kind of scandal, who is still yelling? She is the only fool who will yell in a panic!
The old lady had discussed with the older lady, and they all felt that this old lady was unpredictable! Do you know that she didn't come here to cheat money? It wasn't money scams, it was because of her that she spilled the sewage on the master! Both of them passed the second sister and didn't mention it.
Mrs. Dao, since this person didn't know what it meant, of course he couldn't just let her go. For any reason, he had to wait for the old lady to come back and ask how to deal with it, and then asked Duan Zhangshi if she had any physical deeds. Duan Zhangshi said yes. Although Duan Haofang asked Mrs. Li to go home, the deed was kept at Duan Zhangshi. Later, their family didn't come to redeem it, so naturally they were still there.
If you have a physical deed, you are a member of your family.
The old lady and the big lady breathed a sigh of relief.
The eldest wife said, "Then let her stay in the house first, and don't tell her anything!"
Duan Zhang's promised griefly, losing the energy he had just started. When she first heard about this, she only felt that she had the obligation and responsibility to deal with her daughter-in-law "wife"! To maintain the rules of this family! But now he just shrank to the side, full of regret, regretting that he should wait for the master Duan to come back to discuss this matter with him, regret dead!
After Mrs. Li finished speaking, the second sister was left. It’s not appropriate to say nothing. If the second sister does something like this, the old lady will have to make a deal no matter what, even if she can’t just pretend to be, she will not ask anything or say anything about her. .
But how to ask, how to say is a problem.
Dealing with the second sister, the old lady doesn't have to wait for the old lady to come back. If the old lady comes back, she will have to say something before she does it. The grandson and daughter-in-law's "women" don't have to ask the old lady about such trivial matters.
The old lady asked someone to call her second sister.
When people came to call, Changwei and Changfu had just woke up from a nap. The second sister was playing with them in the house. When they heard the call from the old lady, she asked Mama Zhang to accompany the child, and she took the safflower.
When the red flower was left in front of the house, the second sister went in alone, but saw that the old lady, the eldest wife, the second wife and Duan Zhangshi were all there, and she felt a little bit in her heart.
She went in naturally to treat the old lady with blessings first, and she also kept an eye on her, and she stood still on the spot after she was blessed.
The old lady glanced at the big lady, the big lady let the second sister kneel down, and the second sister knelt on the bare floor, knowing that this must be something to ask her, and it is a bad thing.
What will it be? The second sister turned her mind.
The eldest wife asked her if she knew Duan Haofang's two children in the old house.
The second sister replied that the clothes and some things used every year, as well as the rice noodles and oil money, are paid by people on time. There are accounts for checking.
The eldest lady looked at the old lady, and when she saw the old lady nodding, she asked the second sister to get the ledger. The second sister couldn't go by herself, and asked Hong Hua to come in and give her the key, and led the girl next to the big lady to get the account book.
Honghua was clever, taking advantage of a crack in the door curtain to see her second sister kneeling on the bare floor, she knew that something was going on! Leading the girl back, Mother Zhang naturally came to welcome her immediately. Honghua took the opportunity to find the account book while taking the opportunity to learn from Mama Zhang about the second sister kneeling in the old lady's room.
When Honghua led the people away, Mama Zhang asked Mama Hu and Qingluo to come and let Qingluo look at the child. She and Mama Hu whispered, "I'm afraid something is wrong! Three "milks" "milks" "Let the old lady call over, and Hong Hua said he was kneeling there!"
Mother Hu was anxious when she heard it, and asked, "What can it be? There is nothing wrong with the family recently? Is it the old lady?"
Mother Zhang shook her head and whispered: "I'm watching, the ledger that Honghua took away looks like those of the two children over there."
The second sister's account book is easy to say, the single one is listed separately. Since the two children were sent there, the expenses in the old house over there are listed separately, there are children, there are women, there are a few concubines, and the male servants outside.
Duan Haofang was hiding things from her, so she didn't know how many people there were there, so she just gave money and things based on the race left behind when she moved out, and because there were Yang Mingyue and pomegranate living there. There are also those two children, the second sister is not here to deny them a bad reputation, so she is the most generous, and would rather give more than a lot.
After a few years on the account, the "color" of the ink is different, and I clearly remember the things I give. In addition to the cost of each season, it is more thoughtful for the two children. If there is a happy event at home, I will also give it special. Add one over there.
Looking through such a large book, even the old lady would also admire her. Her face slowed down, and the older lady naturally became more amiable. After receiving the book, she asked her about the lotus. Thing. Asked her, this lotus was given to her by the Wu family
After hearing this, the second sister knelt down again, kowtow before saying: "Lotus is the concubine of the third master."
The elder lady was startled, and then asked: "Is she given to you by your family?"
The second sister didn't answer this, only that she didn't have the lotus bond in her hands.
Duan Zhangshi swallowed the words that came to her lips again. She vaguely understood that this matter should either be attributed to Granny Li or this lotus head, or it was the fault of the two of them, but it could not be the fault of the second sister.
No one knows that the lotus is Wu's concubine. At the time, the old lady only remembered Yang Mingyue. Naturally, lotus, a concubine, didn't have to give her to know. Lotus has never been here, even in the old house before, she never left the yard. Except for the people in the old house who knew that she was a concubine from the Wu family, no one had seen her here. In the past, the Duan’s old house was brought over by the second sister, but her people had long been sold out.
The second sister responded like this, but she followed the old lady's will. The older lady deliberately asked a few more questions and swallowed it back. She hated the second sister's mouth for being too strict and there was no seam at all.
After the second sister answered, she was also anxious. Seeing that no one asked again, she didn't know whether the answer would work or not. She vaguely guessed that the matter was related to lotus, and suddenly turned seventeen or eight thoughts in her mind.
There is nothing to ask about here. Since the second sister does not have the lotus bond in her hand, she is not sure whether she is the second sister's person.
The old lady asked the second sister to go to the ancestral hall to meditate. She didn't say what was the matter, nor did she say that it was the second sister that was shut down. She only asked her to live there for a few days. It looked like it was dealt with, but it didn't seem to be dealt with. Anyway, that's okay at that time, it was the Wu family who came to ask and then changed his words to say that the ancestor asked her to make a dream, and asked her to copy the scriptures to the ancestor.
The second wife saw that the thunder was over and the rain was over, and she was very disappointed, but she also felt happy to see Duan Zhang's desperate look. When the second master came back to learn with him in the evening, the couple had a good laugh. field.
When Wei Yuzhen saw Duan Zhang's going out, the second elder sister also called out, and later Li asked the old lady to take it away. When Duan Zhang came back, the second elder sister knew that the matter had already happened. Big. When Master Duan came back in the evening, after a while, he heard Master Duan cursing at Duan Zhangshi in the room.
Duan Haoping saw her sitting and lying restlessly and said: "What are you'fucking'? Duan Haofang is standing there, let alone the Haofang family who didn't harm the small wild seed, it is really harmful, two If it hurts her, nothing will happen!"
Wei Yuzhen looked at him anxiously. He smiled, shaking his legs and said, "Just put your heart in your stomach, and wait for Duan Haofang to come back in a few days before it's lively! He has just been out for a few days, so my mother will take his daughter-in-law. The "women" have been sent to the ancestral hall! I see what this filial son will do this time!" He was laughing and rolling, and Wei Yuzhen sat next to him and sighed.
On the other side, Zhang's mother packed Qingluo's baggage and sent her out and said, "You follow Tianhu and go back to Wu's house! Be sure to clarify this matter to the old lady!"
Qingluo agreed, and went out to Wujiatun on a donkey with Tianhu.
