C266

Only out of the garden and into the open space in front of my grandmother's yard, I could already see that my grandmother's yard was not quite right.

Both the inside and outside were brightly lit, and the faint sounds of arguing and crying could be heard from inside. It was even more lively than when he was at his mother's place. Even the mother guarding the gate was nowhere to be seen. A pair of red and red doors were wide open like a bloody bowl. Through the door, one could see the shadows on the snow-white walls as they bustled about.

"Take Jiayi in the back door and sit at the letter!"

Jiayi wasn't willing to stay at his mother's place obediently. I was also afraid that his mother would break down and hurt him, so I brought him along with me. At this moment, the situation inside wasn't clear, so I didn't dare to joke around with the safety of my family. Hong Rose, who followed me, said, "No matter what you see on the road, don't be curious. Just send Second Young Master there!"

Red Rose also became nervous after I said this, hurriedly nodded in agreement, took the family righteousness hand and left.

I straightened my clothes, which had been messed up by the night wind, and walked in with a smile on my face.

I have a premonition that a lot of things are going to come to light tonight.

It was the best thing that could have happened to me.

The female servants on the road didn't seem surprised at all by my arrival. When they saw me, they hurriedly smiled and knelt down to greet me. "Greetings, young mistress. After that, I'll head outside."

"What are you guys doing?"

I watched them with their upside-down umbrellas in their hands.

"This servant is under the order of Miss Lan Li to report the funeral."

A few mothers replied with smiles on their faces.

I couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Lan Li didn't send someone from the outer court, so she used someone from her grandmother's courtyard to report her death? However, these old mothers had always refused to be reprimanded. When did they end up being taken in by Lan Lingyun for their own use? Or could it be that they found their families lacking in manpower and came to help of their own accord?

Even though I have some questions, I can't stop them. If I were to stop them at this moment, they would have to mutter a few lines of 'I am young and insensible, and have set up a master in front of them. This has become the reason for Grandmother to seize the power from my hands.

I nodded to them with a smile and said, "Thank you, mothers!" He opened up a path.

The mothers were all smiling humbly today, and only after performing a salute did they walk out with lanterns in their hands. They didn't know what kind of medicine the gourds were selling.

The deeper they went, the more servants gathered around them. They no longer had their usual rules, and were merely gathered under the windows to listen out the walls. In the middle of the room, a mournful female voice kept shouting, "Mother" and "No!" "Don't" and the sound of upsetting furniture and objects, vases and bowls.

"What are you all listening to!?" "Hurry up and go back!"

I scolded the gathered servants harshly. Their bodies trembled as they turned their heads back in panic.

"Miss, Mother Du told me to wait outside."

The one who was speaking was the kitchen maid surnamed Huang in the courtyard. She was an expert in cooking fish and was very popular with her grandmother.

Would Mama Du call her servants, who were serving in the kitchen, here to hear about the matter in the master's room, instead of driving everyone away and sealing off the news?

I suddenly felt a chill in my heart.

In this situation, there was only one possibility …

It was because Grandmother had always hoped that the greater the commotion, the better it would be for the outsiders to learn about it …

When I think back to all the mothers who sneaked out of my grandmother's yard under my nose, I can't help but feel cold all over.

What was it that Grandmother wanted to make known to the entire city?

I grabbed my skirt and ran into the house.

What a sight!

I felt a chill behind my back and took a step back.

His grandmother was sitting on the brick bed with her hair in a mess. Silver hair was falling out of her head, and one piece of it was unhinged. The lilac color of her armor and the crimson carpet were covered with silver hair. At this moment, her grandmother was fighting with her over a pair of scissors. Her face was covered in tears as she panted and begged her grandmother, "Mother, don't be like this!"

Grandmother is a wonderful girl that I have never seen before in my life!

When he said he wanted to fight, he didn't care about friendship at all, and when he said he wanted to let go, he didn't care about rights at all. A person who was heartless to others and even more heartless to himself had an unstoppable willpower.

I was just thinking that my mother had gone. Since the Lu family didn't get the agreement and the account book, they definitely wouldn't let it go, and now that everything at home is in my hands, no one can control it anymore. How will my grandmother respond? At this moment, Grandmother was already prepared to cut her hair to be a sister-in-law.

What a brilliant move!

As a senior, I am a widow, and my daughter-in-law is still alive yet she wants to leave the family. No matter who it is, you have to guess that it was me, the head of the family, who did something wicked, something that even my own direct grandmother found hard to bear, and forced her to escape into the void! For the sake of my reputation, I had to pay tribute to the temple, to which my grandmother, an elderly woman with a large fortune in incense, had to pay. What did it matter to her that she had been sent to a different place of residence?

At that moment, an idea in my mind suddenly cleared up.

"Eldest Miss, come over here and persuade your grandmother!"

Aunt Wang was still fighting over the scissors with her grandmother.

Grandmother looked at me, who was standing in the doorway, and slowly revealed a smile.

There was joy in her shrewd eyes, happiness in her curved lips, and for the first time I saw her smile.

Sharp and unkind, sharp and unkind. This was her grandmother's genuine, heartfelt smile! "Hahahaha …." "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!

In the end, the winner was still Grandmother.

I walked up to her in quick steps and grabbed the scissors in her hands, throwing them to the ground with a cold sneer.

"Please go out for a walk. I have a few words to say to Grandmother!"

The smile on Grandmother's face deepened.

Aunt Wang didn't seem to understand my words as she just stood there in a daze.

"You can leave!" Grandmother, who was sitting upright on the brick bed, said in a soothing yet happy tone, "We have not had a proper conversation for a long time!"

"That's right!"

I nodded with a cold smile.

Aunt Wang walked out the door as if she had lost her soul.

After searching for a while, I picked up a brocade and sat in front of Grandmother.

"He's so young, why is he so angry!"

Grandmother smiled and poured me a cup of tea.

Shanxi Yanmen high tartar, really the scene.

I smiled wryly to myself.

"You want to go out?"

I looked at my grandmother, who had lost her hair on one side of her head.

She smiled and nodded, pouring me another cup of tea.

"You don't have any nostalgia in your heart?"

Grandmother laughed lightly and raised her eyebrows, looking like a young girl.

"The person worth thinking about has been gone for twenty-six years."

Twenty-six years ago, the Old Master of the Yang family passed away.

In other words, at that time, Grandmother no longer had any ties.

"That's true. Your family members are all gone, what else is there to stay for!"

I smiled and sighed, and my grandmother looked at me with a flash of surprise in her eyes.

"You're very smart."

Even though it was an old lady, Grandmother's smile was very beautiful.

"The older the wiser!"

I drank my second cup of tea with a wry smile.

"When did you see it?"

It never occurred to me that my grandmother and I would use such a calm tone to discuss the conflict between the two of us.

"Just now."

I couldn't help but sigh.

Grandmother chuckled lightly, as if she accepted my words.

"I've never had a child in my life." Grandmother's smile was somewhat sarcastic as she said, "But there are countless people who praise me because I envy you for having such a good pair of children."

His son had always had a reputation as a filial son of a merchant. His daughter had married into the imperial court and was adopted as an adopted daughter by the queen's mother.

For a merchant's wife, wasn't this a great honor?

"As matters stand, can you dispel my doubts?"

In fact, I am very stubborn. I have already seen the truth, but I don't know the reason. If I don't ask him now, I might even fall asleep at night and be troubled day.

I don't understand why Grandmother did this.

I don't understand why her sisters have no children, how her brothers all died early, how she managed to lure her elder sister's child, and why she fled to this northern town.

Grandmother looked at me with bright eyes, even with a sigh, she was still smiling:

"Child, although you are smart, you are too strong. You do not understand the principle that Mu Qiang would break when he breaks."

Laughing and sighing, she ran her hand through her loose hair and sighed. "Just like when I was young!"

I didn't say anything and just smiled.

"Once upon a time there was a little girl whose mother adored her father with all her heart. However, her father was a heartless man. Even after one year of marriage, his mother had still not gotten pregnant and still married a concubine.

Although she was still smiling, her grandmother's eyes were a little desolate.

"My aunt was delighted to come in, but it was a girl. By this time the wife of the family was also pregnant, the wife was eager to have a son, and the master turned his attention to the wife. Not wanting to be pregnant in October, the child landed a girl. The concubine was originally from the brothel, so she was good at seducing men. Not long after, the concubine snatched the master back. "The lady was so angry that she made a bowl of soup for the concubine to sterilize the girl. Unexpectedly, the concubine, who was born in the city, was already used to this kind of method and secretly fed the concoction to the daughter of the concubine."

It never occurred to me that this was the reason why my grandmother could not bear children.

"When that lady saw that her only daughter had turned into this kind of person, she was immediately enraged. She took advantage of the master's absence to kill that concubine. "Master came back to find out that his concubine was dead. He tied up his wife and sent her to the officials. He used silver coins to let the officials decide to strip that lady's pants twenty times."

This was simply sensational. There was actually a husband who would send his wife to the government because his wife killed his concubine? There were even a couple who wanted their wife to be stripped of her pants and tortured in public.

Not to mention the relationship between husband and wife, even the slightest trace of a person had been wiped away.

I suddenly understood the coldness and cruelty in my grandmother's bones.

Had the cool grandmother taken in to protect the abandoned adopted daughter of her husband's family also experienced this?

"That lady endured her humiliation and received a great punishment. That night, she hung herself on a beam and died, leaving behind only her ten-year-old daughter."

The young mistress, who was used to being in the inner chamber, was beaten twenty times in public. Not only was it a physical pain, it was also an internal humiliation. Her husband's original intention was to humiliate her to death!

"That little girl has the same hatred in her heart as you do now, but she knows that there is no way she can take revenge. She waited until a year later for her father to marry a new wife. That new madame was extremely fearful of her father's beloved concubines, but she did not have any good methods. This little girl took the initiative to approach her new mother and offered her advice. She allowed her two little brothers to drink a type of medicine that could not grow, and forced their three little sisters to drink the same medicine that they once drank. "

His mother had died from such humiliation, but he couldn't imagine how difficult it must have been for his grandmother when she was a teenager. The stepmother's fear of her children is far greater than her fear of having them by concubine. Even in this situation, Grandmother is still able to gain trust. Although she didn't say it out loud, I can imagine how hard it was for her to do it.

"At this time, this little girl's stepmother felt that this child knows too much. She tried several times to kill her but to no avail, she just wanted to marry her to a faraway place, to marry Zhennan Wang's silly son. But she did not expect that the bride sitting on the bridal sedan was not that girl at all, but her personal servant girl. It just so happened that at this time, the little girl's Big Sister Shu was pregnant. The little girl had rented a small house around her sister and her husband's residence, and had been hibernating all this time, waiting for an opportunity. "

A woman like her grandmother had no reason to feel uncomfortable!

"But this family is very cautious with their child. Even when the child is four years old, the little girl still won't have the chance to make a move." Later on, she bribed the concubine's elder sister's wife and took the child away while someone was taking the little young master to see the lanterns on the Spring Festival. "

Grandmother laughed, as if remembering the carefree days of her youth.

"The little girl's elder sister and brother-in-law searched everywhere for their lost child, and the little girl had no choice but to take that child and start running. Later, on the way, she met a chivalrous person. He was like her, only he was carrying a baby girl with him. In order to cover each other up, the two of them became partners. The chivalrous hero was very foolish. He knew nothing about killing people, but he treated that little girl very well. He didn't mind that she couldn't bear to have children, so the two of them had lived together for more than forty years. He is a very emotional person. He views the child that the little girl stole as his own son and hopes that his son can stay away from the underworld. It's a pity … "
