Grandma Qin froze.
This life is very young, it seems, even younger than Xu Zhiheng, but when I look at it, it is like a cold lake and a cold bone marrow. She had never seen this person before, and did not know what the other person was, but her intuition was more dangerous than Xu Zhiheng.
Grandma Qin was a widow when she was young, but she was beautiful when she was young, and even after she died of a man, it was not impossible for her to marry. But she was reluctant to give her son to distant relatives. The man next to him wanted to marry her, but he didn’t want to raise a tow oil bottle. Only the blacksmith is willing.
But Mammoth Qin did not look at the identity of Niu Blacksmith, thinking that Niu Blacksmith was a little poor. Later, when she entered the He Mansion, the days were much better, and she thought of getting married. However… there is also an unclear relationship with the blacksmith. Grandma Qin didn’t pay much attention to the blacksmith blacksmith, but after He Wanru’s accident, the blacksmith blacksmith gave her a way of life. In the days when the two were in trouble together, Grandma Qin did indeed have a little affection for him. This young man hit a snake seven inches. He came to threaten with the life of a blacksmith. Qin’s mother was more passive.
She said: “Auntie He… Auntie He made a mistake. Her wife asked her for a family law and was hit by a board. Auntie He was weak and didn’t hold on, so she went.” After that, she looked at the young man. , Looking at each other’s look.
The other party’s expression is still faint, and the voice is calm. “I have no patience to listen to you. If you think this person’s life is not enough, I can add the life of Wu Han and his son.”
As soon as this remark came out, Grandma Qin shouted, “No!”
Wu Han is her son. This man… threatened her with his children and grandchildren. The other party was not Xu Zhiheng. If Xu Zhiheng killed her children and grandchildren, she would be afraid that Qin Ma’s mother would come to the net and tell the truth, but the strange man didn’t seem to care.
He doesn’t have any handle on himself, but he knows himself well.
Grandma Qin paused on the ground, and a moment of despair floated in her heart.
“Don’t worry, I’m not going to take your life.” He leaned forward slightly, staring at Qin Ma’s eyes, like the clear eyes of the water, with sharp edges. “Xu Zhiheng’s people have been staring at Wu Han and his son, yes In order to force you to appear. But if you tell what you know, I can keep their father and son’s lives.”
Mother Qin shocked, this condition is really tempting.
For the first time in her life, she was bold, “How do slaves believe you?”
The other party smiled indifferently, stretched out his hand, and the man in black behind stepped forward, handing a bracelet to him. The youth shook the bracelet in front of Qin’s mother.
Grandma Qin was shocked.
This bracelet was created by her entrusted person when her little grandson was born, and she asked the monk to open the light to protect the grandson’s health and well-being. Now in the hands of the other party… She knew that she had no possibility to talk to the other party about the conditions, what she could do, and nothing more than to say that the other party was satisfied, letting her family and cattle blacksmith.
“I said… I said it all.” Grandma Qin said sadly: “Aunt He was executed by his uncle. Family law is only a guise. Aunt is kept in the house, afraid that outsiders will see the doorway and take medicine every day. I went in a few days.”
The youth was not surprised, only asked: “Why did Xu Zhiheng execute He Wanru.”
“Because… because Aunt He made a big mistake and had to die.”
“What’s wrong.”
Grandma Qin shook her hand and took a deep breath, as if to give herself a little courage, before speaking for a while, “Because Aunt He killed Grandma.”
As soon as the words came out, there was a little silence in the room.
Luan Ying and Fei Nu were shocked behind them. The people of Quanshuojing knew that the grandmother of the Xu family had lost sight of the road because of blindness and accidentally fell into the pond to drown and died, but now he said that the grandmother It was ridiculous to die in the hands of the concubine? Anyway, the eldest lady of the He family, the sister of He Rufei, is not inferior in status. It is ridiculous to die if you die because of contending with the concubine.
It is no wonder that Xu Zhiheng can’t wait to execute He He with all insiders, otherwise Yu Shiyi’s unruly family members will go up and Xu Zhiheng’s black gauze hat will have to be thrown away. But if the He family does not know, and a daughter has died, why should he send another daughter in the past? If the He family knows, it is so easy to expose?
Xiao Jue’s eyes moved slightly, and Qin Ma’s words confirmed his conjecture.
“Why did He Wanru kill Grandma Xu, or rather,” he said another way, “Why did Xu Zhiheng kill Grandma Xu?”
Grandma Qin was taken aback and quickly said, “No, the son, Aunt He killed the grandmother, it’s a matter of the woman’s house, and it has nothing to do with others. So good, why does the uncle kill the grandmother? The uncle is gentle and gentle. How is it possible to do such a thing?”
Xiao Jue looked at her indifferently: “I said that, I have no patience to listen to you lie.”
At the next moment, the sword in Feinu’s hand had reached the neck of the blacksmith.
Bloodshot ran down his neck, no one could be indifferent when life and death were at stake, the calm man who had always been calm, could not help but reveal a trace of confusion at the moment. Grandma Qin was so scared that she looked pale, “No, stop!”
Fei Nu’s sword did not go further, Xiao Jue said: “I ask again, why Xu Zhiheng wanted to kill his wife.”
Qin’s mother is at this juncture, but still has some concerns and refuses to tell the truth. It seems that what is being concealed is by no means a small secret.
Grandma Qin closed her eyes, seeming to be in a state of panic. The other party’s sword was slowly pressed deep into the neck of the blacksmith Niu, and the bracelet with the scripture swayed in front of her eyes…she suddenly shouted loudly. : “I don’t know… I don’t know… I’m too scared, I persuaded her, don’t do it… But she said, this is what the uncle meant, it doesn’t matter, she did what the uncle said, no Something happened. I was far away. I was terrified at that time. I only heard vaguely heard Aunt He said to the grandmother: General He…”
Xiao Jue suddenly raised his eyes. For a moment, his eyes were as sharp as a knife, and the thorny Qin Ma’am did not dare to speak. He asked, “What did you just say?”
Grandma Qin said tremblingly: “Aunt He said to Grandma…General Wo…”
At that time she was terrified of death. Although there were many **** swords and swords in the house, Qin Ma’s mother never directly killed her. Of course, she also wanted He Wanru to have a stable position in Xu’s family, but Qin Ma’s mother clearly saw that He Wanru’s family history could never be Xu’s wife. So He Wanru told her that when he was about to kill He Yan, Grandma Qin was startled and kept trying to dissuade her from giving up the idea.
However, He Wanru seemed to be hardened and refused to listen to her. Grandma Qin felt strange, and finally He Wanru finally revealed the truth. This was Xu Zhiheng’s order, and it was Xu Zhiheng who wanted to take He Yan’s life. But why did Xu Zhiheng take the life of He Yan? For this reason, He Wanru refused to say anything, only that it was the secret between Xu Zhiheng and her.
At that time, Grandma Qin had already realized that it was wrong.
It is a pity that He Wan was spoiled by his family when he was young and married to Xu’s family. Xu Zhiheng was also a gentle man. Even the mother on the head, He Yan, was irrelevant, empty and ambitious, no brain, Qin She didn’t listen to the words of her mother, and when Mother Qin wanted to do anything, it was too late.
When He Yan was drowned, she hid in the woman-in-law outside, terrified. He Wanru’s position is too large, so many people… It seems like there is no scruples. She vaguely heard He Wanru’s dialogue with He Yan, as if playing a dumb mystery, the words are not clear, but there is one sentence Words Qin Mao remembers very clearly, He Wanru called He Yan “General He”.
“General He” is Feihong General He Rufei, and He Yan’s brother. What does this have to do with He Yan? Grandma Qin didn’t want to understand when she was in a panic. Until later, she fled the Xu’s house and went around with the blacksmith Niu. After carefully pondering the matter, she smelled something unusual. She also seems to have a glimpse of the secret of this secret, but… this is really sensational, once the secret is exposed to the world, what are the consequences and unimaginable.
So less than a last resort, Grandma Qin never said it. But now, whenever she thinks about the scene of that day, she feels cold all over.
Under the eyes of that day, Grandma Xu was forced by a stick, pressed into a pool of cold water, and never came out again. But the arrogant crowd at the time was already dead in the eyes of others. Even He Wanru did not expect that shortly after Xu Zhiheng took his wife’s life, he would strike her.
All are karmic retribution, destined for nothing.
There was no one in the room to speak, and Mother Qin couldn’t help raising her head to look at the other party. She was uneasy in her heart. This was her biggest secret. She didn’t know who the other party was, and wanted to ask what they were doing.
“Go on,” Xiao Jue said.
Someone speaks better than always being silent. Grandma Qin always said, “After Grandma died, I expected that Aunt He would be mostly killed by the uncle. I was afraid, I wanted to call Aunt He with me I ran away, but Aunt He refused. At that time, the people in the house, especially those who were present in the yard of the aunt, had already been banned from leaving the house. When I later ran away, I asked the person to inquire. The people in the courtyard of Auntie He’s home were all replaced with new ones…they were all dead.”
“Sir…” Qin Ma said, she wiped her tears. “All I know is this. Although I had previously served Aunt He, why did the uncle kill the grandmother? Aunt He always refused to tell me. It’s just a member of the Xu family. I don’t know anything. I beg you to let us go!”
Xiao Jue stood up, glanced at the two of them, and said, “You will live here temporarily.” He walked out of the house.
The guard standing outside the door followed, and Xiao Jue walked forward. This is not the Xiao family, but a courtyard. Luan Ying and Fei Nu walked on Xiao Jue’s side, shocking each other.
Xiao Jue walked to the flower wall at the end of the yard and stopped. Something has arrived, and there are only green leaves on the flower wall, and no red flowers. His voice fell in the wind, with a chill, “When is Luan Ying, He Rufei and Grandma Xu’s birthday?”
Luan Ying replied: “It is a vernal equinox. Mrs. He and Mrs. He Er gave birth at the same time, and He Rufei and Grandma Xu were born at the same time. The birthday is a vernal equinox.” After all, she and Fei Nu looked at each other, both See the surprise in the other party’s eyes.
When I was in Jinling, I learned from Huayouxian’s mouth that the “He Rufei” was a woman. Now, what He Rufei did in the war in Huayuan shows that he was indeed not the “He Rufei” at that time. If not”. Xiao Jue has always made Luan Yingchao a close woman to He Rufei, but now, it seems that there is no need to check anymore. Although Qin Ma only said “General He”, but these three words have already been said. I understand.
He Rufei at the beginning, He Rufei who studied in the Xianchang Hall, He Rufei who went to the Yunlou with the youngsters in Jinling, and He Rufei who fought hard in the Fuyue Army was actually Grandma Xu , Cousin born with He Rufei. But now, Grandma Xu is dead. No one in the world knows this secret, so He Rufei becomes a real “General Feihong”.
“You continue to collect all matters concerning Grandma Xu’s lifetime.” Xiao Jue said: “Xu Zhiheng’s relationship with He Rufei may not be simple. Xu Zhiheng should know that He Rufei and cousin exchange identities.”
Luan Ying nodded, and suddenly thought of something, hesitated a moment before speaking, “But Master, girl He bought the little servant of the Xu family gatekeeper, and wanted to inquire about Qin Ma’s whereabouts. This is what he wanted to do. He Rufei It is a secret to exchange identity with Grandma Xu, how does girl He know? And why did she want to investigate this matter, He Rufei and Xu’s family stared at girl He at the same time, the previous subordinates believed that their real purpose was the young master, but now Come, maybe not.”
“What role does girl He play in it?”
Luan Ying is much older than Xiao Jue and almost grew up watching Xiao Jue. In many cases, Xiao Jue is not as nervous as Chi Wufeinu. I thought out what I thought.
Xiao Jue didn’t say anything. On the other hand, the flying slave finally couldn’t help saying: “Girl He and Grandma Xu have the same name.”
“It was just a coincidence.” Luan Yingxiang continued without thinking: “I have checked that He girl is He girl, and has not been replaced, and the name of He girl is this name early in the morning. There is no other possibility. I I had also thought about whether Grandma Xu had twin sisters or not, but the age was not suitable, and the four neighbors of the He family could testify that the girl was born like her mother.”
Therefore, He Yan could never be the twin sister of Grandma Xu.
“About He Yan, stop here.” Xiao Jue said, “I have a point.”
Fei Nu and Luan Ying looked at each other, and no one thought that it was just one thing, which would lead to so many follow-ups. Not only did he discover the terrifying secret that He Rufei exchanged identities with his cousin, now even He Yan’s behavior has become confusing.
But Xiao Jue had already spoken, and they could only do things as instructed.
Xiao Jue said: “I am optimistic about these two people, don’t let them run away.”
The two should get off.
When Fei Nu and Luan Ying each went to work, Xiao Jue looked at the quiet sky.
On Shuojing’s winter day, the stars are only a few stars scattered on the black velvet cloth, like a certain time, at the edge of the clear spring, the shining light in the air. The lanterns are bright and lively on and off the water.
The longevity noodles on the boat were steaming hot, and the sweet syrup in the cups made of leaves was like honey. The girl’s face was hidden behind the lights. At that time, the night was too beautiful, and the wind was too cold, so that people ignored her being heated up. His eyes were a little red.
He raised his eyebrows and asked, “Isn’t it your birthday today?”
The girl’s eyes were curved, “Du Du, you are so kind to me, thank you.”
He slowly lowered his head, his eyes falling on the side of his boots, the reflection of the water in the pond.
That day was Jiyang’s Water God Festival, the vernal equinox.
…
He Yan’s mood is really bad.
The failure to find the blacksmith Niu, followed by the whereabouts of Qin’s mother, always made her have many doubts, if Xu Zhiheng first she found Qin’s mother in one step, Qin’s mother must be more and more fierce, for her, there is one important thing missing. Witness.
She originally wanted to see Fuwang, but now she is already shy in her pockets. The Xu family’s servant is extremely greedy and goes empty-handed, afraid that she will not get any useful news. So from the second day of He Yan’s return from the market, everyone in the He family discovered her low mood.
“Yan Yan, Dad passed by East Street today. I heard that the little ladies who came in Shuojing were fashionable with a kind of balm. Dad bought one for you. You always put it on your hand and it smells sweet.”
He Yan said listlessly: “Thank you dad.”
He Sui is also very distressed. Originally, his daughter had a beautiful appearance and a spoiled temperament, but the girl was charming and tender. Colleagues and friends all know that his family is soft and beautiful, and now He Yan is back. His temperament is completely different from before. He just gets up every morning to punch and firewood. The rouge gouache bought for her in the past is useless, and he has a face for a long time. , Even the skirt can not pick up the work wear.
Although this is also very good, but the gap is too big, sometimes He Yan looked at herself, and missed the daughter of Jiao Didi in the past. So he tried to buy some gadgets to remind He Yan to be a woman. Although he felt that He Yan was also very good, General Feng Yun was married, not a brother. He Yan and Xiao Jue cannot be allowed to go out. Outsiders say that He Yan is more like a man than Xiao Jue. What has this become!
He Yan did not know that what she had done had annoyed He Sui to such an extent that she was worried about Qin Ma’s affairs. Although I know that Niu Blacksmith will most likely not show up in Changmao Iron Shop anymore, there is a slight fluke in my heart. Two days later, when the morning was dark, He Sui and He Yunsheng had not yet gone out. At that time, He Yan quietly touched the black and folded the bedding, holding Xiangxiang to run to the town again.
So when Qingmei got up to feed the horse, she gave out the same exclamation as the previous days. This time, she was much more stable than the previous one. Without seeing no one in the room, she burst into tears and went to Chiwu. The room knocked on the door politely.
Chiwu opened the door: “What’s the matter?”
Qingmei accused him with a smile: “Chiwu, did you sleep too much, and the girl went out with Xiangxiang again. Did you find it?”
Chiwu: “…”
