Happy Marriage

It wasn't until the sky was light and dark that someone in the house got up, only to find that the old woman, who had fainted on the ground, was pale, her eyes were still closed, and she was unconscious.

Everyone picked up Madam Lian with all her hands, put her back on the bed in the back room, and woke her up by pinching her.

As soon as she regained her breath, she closed her eyes and danced: "Madam, spare your life, it wasn't me who killed you!"

Everyone looked at each other. Someone said with a smile, "I'm afraid it's not the devil, right?"

Then he reached out and patted her face: "Lianzi, wake up, wake up!"

"There's a ghost!" Madam Lian exclaimed and opened her eyes.

Someone sneered: "The sky is not afraid, the earth is not afraid, even the old woman is afraid of ghosts."

Some people laughed: "You shouldn't have fainted from fright last night, right?"

Madam Lian was ridiculed by everyone. Looking at the already bright white sky and the sleepy servants, she felt that the yang energy had gathered around her body again, and she was no longer so frightened.

She sat up, patted her heart, and asked solemnly, "Is it because you were bored and fooled around last night?"

People snorted from their noses: "Who can hold on to nothing? I am teasing you in the middle of the night."

The old woman pointed at the door: "Who wrote that word? Who came knocking on the door in the middle of the night? There is also a ghost fire!"

Everyone turned their heads, the door was clean, where is there half a word?

Even the old lady was stunned.

She saw clearly last night, it was definitely not a hallucination!

Everyone looked at each other in dismay: "Lian Madam, you shouldn't really see a ghost, right? How could there be ghost fire here?"

Pozi Lian remembered the familiar smell of sulfur from last night. No one knew about this, so it couldn't be their prank. The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became, and she couldn't help shaking her whole body: "That means there are really ghosts, and ghosts are coming to claim their lives!"

"Don't do bad things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. When you look at you, you have done something bad, and then there are ghosts knocking on the door." Someone joked and teased.

"Bah! You just did something wrong!" Madam Lian suddenly woke up, glaring angrily to hide her guilty conscience.

Seeing her embarrassed expression, everyone laughed and dispersed.

The Xia Mansion was too small, so the story of the old lady's encounter with a ghost quickly spread to the old lady and the Xue family.

The old lady got there first and called the still-white-faced old lady to her.

Madam Lian had fainted on the ground in the middle of the night last night. She caught a cold and was a little hot. She regained her spirits in a daze, entered the old lady's room, and knelt on the ground to listen to the lecture.

The old lady snorted coldly: "I heard that you saw a ghost last night? You said that a wronged ghost wanted your life?"

Even though the old lady was scared, she was not confused. The family of this big family is taboo about these strange and disturbing things, so he trembled and replied: "Qi, old lady, the old lady was shocked and said nonsense. But what happened last night was true, someone must be deliberately playing tricks on the mother-in-law. Son, also ask the old lady to call the shots."

"You said someone was teasing you, but do you know who it is?"

Madam Lian shook her head and said honestly, "I don't know."

"I don't know how you feel that someone is trying to trick you? Run to your door in the middle of the night and write a blood letter, and then keep knocking on the door to scare you?"

"It's true, old lady." Even the old lady solemnly differentiated: "Last night, the knocking on the door kept going, and the old lady got up many times, but she didn't find out who it was. Then there were still many ghosts and fires surrounding the whole time. The old woman's door was spinning, and she was horrified. As soon as she turned around, she found the word 'injustice' written in blood on the door. Madam, this must have been someone deliberately pretending to be a ghost to scare the old woman."

The old lady stared at Mrs. Lian meaningfully: "Is this someone deliberately pretending to be a ghost to scare you, let's not mention for the time being, why did this person scare you, and why did he write a word of injustice on your door? "

Even the old woman trembled, and her face suddenly turned pale: "The old woman doesn't know either."

"As the saying goes, grievances have grievances, and debts have lords. Since they are looking for you, it must be what you did in the past, right? Otherwise, were you scared and fainted last night?"

Madam Lian shook her head like a rattle: "Wife has always done things with a clear conscience. She must have offended someone in the house in the past."

"Really?" The old lady seemed to be rubbing the gold-inlaid jade bracelet on her wrist, and she raised her eyelids and glanced at Mrs. Lian\"I'm curious about your sentence 'Madam, spare your life, it's not me who killed you' What exactly does that mean?"

Madam Lian was stunned for a moment, and then denied it: "Did I say such a thing? Maybe it was a moment of confusion, right? At that time, I was so frightened that I was already unconscious, and it was inevitable to say nonsense."

The old lady sighed softly and said meaningfully, "I hope so, otherwise I will be extremely frightened when I think about it carefully."

The old lady was sweating like rain, and she repeatedly kowtowed: "It is indeed that the old lady was frightened and talked nonsense for a while, disturbing the old lady, and asked the old lady to spare her life."

The old lady smiled slightly: "It's good that you understand it in your heart, and explain what you should explain. Don't let everyone misunderstand and spread rumors. I heard that some rumors are a bit mysterious."

The two beats made Mrs. Lian even more uneasy, thinking that the old lady had made it clear that there was something in her words. She responded hastily, begging for mercy again and again, the old lady just waved her hand and ordered her to retreat.

It is said that the Xue family is in charge of the Xia Mansion, and the news should be better than the old lady. She got up late today, and she was very angry these past two days. Even her mother-in-law had just been reprimanded and punished to do hard labor, so the others were careful to serve her, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense in front of her, so as not to cause trouble for herself.

When she found out about it, Xia Zixian hurried over to tell her.

Xue Shi couldn't help but be startled, she screened off all the servants who were serving her, and carefully asked Xia Zixian what happened.

"Is the old lady really said that?"

Xia Zixian nodded affirmatively: "It's true, many people are listening in front of them, and they are still discussing what even the old lady means by saying these words. There are all kinds of things to say. It might be thrown out."

Xue Shi suddenly stood up: "There's not even a door on the lips of the old lady! I've ruined my good things over and over again."

"Grandma has already asked her to come in and teach her a lesson, but Changjing is not guarding her, and she doesn't know what she is asking. Anyway, even the old woman knelt in front of her for a long time, and when she went out, her face was pale, and her whole figure seemed to be out of the water. It's just average."

Xue shi frowned: "She is already so old, she should know the seriousness, and she will not easily confess what happened at the beginning. Otherwise, it will not do her any good."

"Even if there is no confession, grandmother's eyes are as sharp as the Bodhisattva enshrined in the temple, and it is very vicious. He must have sensed something wrong." Xia Zixian said firmly.

"She directly passed me and interrogated Mrs. Lian. She should have suspected something. Otherwise, she would not have made a special trip to call Mrs. Lian over for questioning. However, I understand the means by which your grandmother is in charge of the family, and this matter is considered true by her. Whatever came out of the interrogation, for the reputation and peace of the Xia family, the upturned gourd would also be pressed down, and it would not be publicized.

When she did this, it was nothing more than beating me, making me fearful, in awe of her from the bottom of my heart, and obeying her honestly. "

In Xue's words, there was anger and dissatisfaction with the old lady that could not be concealed.

"It has been so many years, and it can be said to be seamless. Moreover, the old people in the house and the mother were all cleaned up, and no one will bring up the old things again. But these two days, how did the old man Doing nothing and making trouble for four times, tossing these things out?" Xia Ziwu asked suspiciously.

"Could it be that Mrs. Lian was thinking about this matter, deliberately letting out some rumors, and then blackmailing us?" Xue guessed.

Xia Zixian shook her head suspiciously: "If you really have such a plan, mother, when you punish her to do the labor work, she should take the opportunity to bring it up. Besides, even the old lady should not have ours in the hands of the old lady. What's the handle? You've spread it by word of mouth, and no one will believe what she says. What's more, she's also afraid that she'll be tangled in it, right?"

"It makes sense, then it's not intentional." Xue pondered for a moment: "Could it be that someone deliberately induced Mrs. Lian to tell what happened back then?"

"Now the entire Xia Mansion is our world, and everything is under my mother's control. Apart from Xia Ansheng, there should be no one else." Xia Zixian said firmly.

"However, when Qin Shi died, Xia Ansheng was still young. In any case, she shouldn't have known."

"It's hard to guarantee that it wasn't the words that Madam Lian said to Xia Anzheng that aroused her suspicion."

Xue Shi nodded: "It is indeed possible. She now understands the way these foods are mutually restrained, and even a few unintentional words from the old lady undoubtedly reminded her."

"Then she intends to start with Mrs. Lian to investigate the cause of Qin's death?" Xia Zixian suddenly said in shock.

Xue's body was suddenly as if facing a great enemy, she straightened her body, and said decisively: "Even the old lady is stupid and has been fooled by Xia Ansheng over and over again. If Xia Ansheng really wants to start with her, then she must not be an opponent. "

"Then what should we do? If the old man asks about this matter, even if the old lady bites us out, even if he says it's baseless, he will provoke a whole body of filth."

Xue pondered for a while: "It's really not possible, let's send Mrs. Lian to Zhuangzi to avoid the limelight for the time being."

"No, if Xia Ansheng really made up his mind to investigate, let alone Zhuangzi, it would be a disaster to escape to the horizon." Xia Zixian immediately objected.

"Then what do you say?"

Xia Zixian slightly hooked her lips, narrowed her eyes and smiled coldly: "No poison is not a husband, and there will be no future troubles!"

Xue Shi stood up suddenly, his face full of horror: "You want to kill people?"

Xia Zixian snorted coldly: "Don't my mother think that this is a good solution once and for all? As long as the mother-in-law dies, this matter will be a secret forever, and no one will know. We will be safe forever. ."

Xue Shi was still a little hesitant: "That's human life, not a kitten or a puppy."

"Mother doesn't think about it, how did you get your happy life today? Seek wealth and honor at risk, don't take risks, where is the ready-made wealth waiting for you to pick it up? Even if there was, it would have been taken away by others long ago. She has no children and no daughters, her brother asks, and gives a few taels of silver to get rid of it."

Xue Shi was stunned there, and after a while, he recovered, and nodded decisively: "Okay!"
