Liu Qiqiao touched her little yard again this evening. She didn’t look at the yard carefully before. There were a few things in the house, and she couldn’t say that everything was missing. Originally, it wasn’t very prosperous. Now, Still deserted, went to bed and covered the quilt, Liu Qiqiao thought, what will it be like tomorrow
Liu Qiqiao didn’t know if this matter was brought about by herself, but her life was really bitter, and she got married in her natal house. He thought that when he married in Shen’s house, he would have good food and clothing. It's a good day, I don't want to, but it's better than when I was at home.
At this moment, Liu Qiqiao felt like he was walking in a small river of unknown depth. He did not touch the shore on all sides, one foot was deep and one foot was shallow, but he could not turn his head. The only way to go was that he felt restless, and he didn’t know it was. It's not the next step, just step on the air with one step, and fall into that unforgettable situation.
After these two days, Shen's mansion has become a mansion, and everyone is in danger. The servants have no intention to clean up as they did in the past. They are together in twos and threes, and they are all babbling and talking. Fortunately, there is a man in the Shen family. Good housekeeper, at this time, I can still keep calm, arrange a group of people and wait for shifts, do some work, guarantee three meals a day, and welcome delivery. Of course, now, people outside are also guessing. Seeing what happened to the Shen family, no one dared to come to the door at this time.
In the past, the front door was a busy city, and now the door can be a bird, and there are only the row of horses and two big lions in front of Shen's mansion, which are as prestigious as before.
It was okay today. Someone delivered food to Liu Qiqiao’s yard, but the attitude was not good. They came in with a food box and took out the food one by one. The servant woman saw Liu Qiqiao and her attitude was very bad, so she used chopsticks. When she reached her hand, she said annoyedly: "Eat, Aunt Liu!" After she finished speaking, she was about to leave. Liu Qiqiao hurriedly stopped her: "Dare to ask my sister, is there any movement in front of her? Release it?"
The man turned his face bitterly and said to her, "No, if you want to ask, just go ahead and ask yourself!"
Then he snorted and left, obviously because he didn't want to stay here for a while longer.
After Liu Qiqiao had eaten, it was too late to go to the front, but someone came to her.
When the two women came over, they were polite and polite to Liu Qiqiao. Liu Qiqiao responded in a panic. The two stood up straight, and one of the round-faced women smiled: "We are the old lady. In the yard, the old lady told us to invite my aunt to come over!"
Liu Qiqiao stared at them in a daze. It was the first time since something went wrong. Someone talked to her in such a pleasant way.
Liu Qiqiao followed the two women through the courtyards. On the way, he remembered, and asked, "Is the old lady all right?" The old lady fainted suddenly the night before.
"Aunt Hui, the old lady is already fine!" One of the women replied. They turned around the last doorway. Someone in front of the door opened the curtain. Liu Qiqiao looked at the room, it was still neat, and he came to Shen Mansion by himself. The most advanced one is this house.
At that time, everything in the house appeared countless times in her dreams. It was the first time she saw a big family. Now, without the decorations, the house looks much bigger. The people in the house Not many. The old lady Shen was sitting on the couch with a little girl sitting on the side. It was that Shen Xiurong. She was a bit more mature than two years ago. She was fourteen or five years old, and her hair was neatly combed. In times of disaster, he was able to maintain his composure. Only the corners of his eyes were reddened and his eyelids were swollen. I thought I had cried.
There were two rows of people sitting on either side of Ruansu. The first one on the left was Mrs. Shen, and the right was Mrs. Shen Shao Huangfu Haoyue. And further behind, Shen Yunong's six-room concubines lined up on both sides. At this moment someone couldn't help crying.
Seeing Liu Qiqiao coming in, the old lady Shen raised her hand and said, "Qiqiao sit down! Grandma has something to say!"
After this incident, the old lady had been irritated and her voice was weak. She was crooked there, showing her old attitude in just two days.
Someone led Liu Qiqiao to the side and asked her to sit down.
Liu Qiqiao sat down, and Mrs. Shen said, "I called everyone here today because of such a major incident in the mansion. I must have understood in the past two days. This is the end of the Shen family, it’s fallen..." After she said this, there were crying all around.
Mrs. Shen went on to say: "Although Master Shang Shu’s intercession has temporarily left this house for us, but there are some things, I don’t want to hide it from everyone, and the business of our Shen family outside has also been sealed. Our firm, cloth house, wine shop, etc., etc., etc., are now either closed or closed. Only the farm in the country and the second young master are temporarily in charge. I don’t know how long it will last. I don’t know. I forgot about it, but I still didn't get there!"
Liu Qiqiao raised his head and looked over carefully.
All around, she was crying, crying, shocked, she didn't recognize it completely, but she knew that Shen Yunong's concubine rooms were all sitting here now.
Liu Qiqiao was looking at everyone, but he heard Mrs. Shen continue to say: "You are all the concubines of Nong'er. If something like this happens, you can’t protect all of you. We all caught up, but we still don’t know the origin of this disaster, and no one can guarantee that there will be no changes in the future. You follow Nong'er once, and he usually does not serve you thinly, but when things happen suddenly, he does not. Confess, but I don’t want you to stay here and suffer unwarranted disasters again, so if you have a good place to go, make a living on your own now, and leave now. We Shen Mansion and Nong'er will not blame you..."
Liu Qiqiao understood this, and all the women understood.
The crying voice became louder. Someone called Shen Yunong's name. It was so sad that the first woman beside Huangfu Haoyue stood up, and the first one said: "Madam, young lady, my young lady with purple kite, There is no return for the love of the young master. I will not leave. No matter what happens to the Shen family, I will not leave!" On her side stood a little girl, who was her twin daughter.
Liu Qiqiao knew who she was after hearing her self-reported name. Although Shen Yunong had many wives and concubines, only one gave him two daughters. Her name was Ziyuan. I don’t know what her surname was. She was originally Huangfu. Haoyue's dowry girl was later taken over by Shen Yunong and her concubine's identity was lifted.
Just after she finished speaking, one stood up on the other side, and looked so beautiful, "I won't go, as long as the Shen family doesn't push me, I won't leave here!" The one next to her heard her say so, too. Immediately stood up and said, "I won't go, I have to wait for Xiang Gong to come back if I say anything!"
As soon as they finished talking about these two, people on all sides were saying: "I won't go, I'll wait for the father to come back!"
Liu Qiqiao’s eyes are not enough. I only think that these women are beautiful and their attitudes are so firm. Liu Qiqiao sighed that Shen Yunong and his concubines are all good-looking, and they are all like this. Good temperament, good character, even though Shen Yunong was arrested, and his future is uncertain, but their perseverance spirit still gives people respect.
But Liu Qiqiao didn’t know that these women were all very carefree. Although the Shen family fell, the camels were bigger than the horses. They were always raised by Shen Yunong in Shen’s mansion. Some of them were small households. The young ladies of the other family, including the young lady from the goulan, and the daughter of the teacher, who have lived in Shenjiajin for the past few years, where to go back, not to mention that they are all married people, just go back In the past, it was impossible to get through. Now, the Shen family is still staying here, and they fall down wherever they say they fall. Now they can leave without saying anything. Besides, Shen Yunong is usually right. They have always been gentle and affectionate, even if they look at his face, they don't want to leave.
How could there be such a good man to rely on them.
Thinking that Mrs. Shen had already expected such a result, she slightly nodded and looked around. When she saw Liu Qiqiao, her gaze took advantage of it, but in the end she didn't say anything. After bypassing her, she continued. "It’s rare for everyone to come together like this. It’s really hard to see people’s hearts, and it’s not worth your love. It’s just that now, the books on the business have been sealed, and the family has just been looted. This To save Yunong, it is indispensable to go up and do some work, and the money available for activities at home is limited, so..." She looked at the old lady Shen, then looked at Huangfu Haoyue: "We decided to take our body. Take it out as the fund for the event, I hope you can use some..."
Everyone looked at each other, not wanting Madam Shen to wait for them here, and before they could react, what to say, Huangfu Haoyue above took the golden hairpin from her head first, and motioned to her maid Wan'er to take a tray. There was already an exquisite wooden box inside. She put the golden hairpin on the tray and said: "My body is already here, this golden hairpin can also be used for money..."
Wan'er glanced at the master, nodded slightly, and walked towards Zi Yuan. Zi Yuan was also unambiguous. She stroked the bracelets on her head, hands, and wrists: "To save the husband!"
Turning around again, he took off the gold collars that hung around the necks of the two children. The second daughter was actually smaller, and she clung to the collars and didn't let go: "Mother, this is what Daddy gave us!"
"Hey, Lian'er, I want to save my dad. When Daddy comes out, I will give a new one to the nanny, and a better one!" Zi Yuan said as she took away her daughter's hand.
Jinjin's collar was placed on the tray, and the mother three held her head and cried bitterly.
Wan'er was holding the tray, and tears fell down. She walked to the third aunt, who was originally the daughter of a fifth-rank historian, but she was knowledgeable and reasonable. Now, she does not hesitate to transfer All the gold ornaments on the head were donated.
Walking over like this one by one, the pallets were already piled up too much.
With a faint crying, Wan'er walked to Liu Qiqiao who was sitting in the corner.
