Brother villain, don't be black

"Xin'er, you are confused!"

"I……"

Mrs. Zhang opened her mouth, but couldn't utter a word, she couldn't help but burst into tears, she knew very well in her heart that Sister Yan would never come back, and Sister Yu didn't recognize her mother anymore.

She will lose both daughters.

"You are not feeling well. Tomorrow morning, I will send someone to take you back to the old house in the south of the Yangtze River. I will take care of you and return to Beijing when you are well." Jiang Qizheng had no choice but to make such an arrangement.

"You want to send me back to Jiangnan?!"

Shocked and sad, Mrs. Zhang turned paler and paler, lifted the quilt and walked down tremblingly, pointed at Jiang Qizheng, and said in disbelief: "Jiang Qizheng, you and I have been husband and wife for more than 20 years, you...you don't read a word at all." Husband and wife love, do you want to drive me away?"

"..."

Hearing this, Jiang Qizheng suffered another headache, softened his tone, and said: "With your current state, it is not suitable for you to stay in the capital. It is for your own good to advise you to go back to the south of the Yangtze River."

"Good, good, good!"

After saying three good words in a row, Mrs. Zhang took off her forehead and threw it on the ground, "Don't wait until tomorrow, I'll leave today, go back to Jiangnan, and I won't be here to obstruct your eyes!"

After finishing speaking, he went out angrily.

"Mother!" Jiang Feiyu called in a low voice, trying to stop and persuade her, but was held down by her father, "She feels uncomfortable, let her go!"

"Father, what about Sister Yu and Sister Yan?"

"never mind."

Jiang Qizheng let out a long sigh, with a tired look on his face, and grinned wryly, "Since Sister Yu doesn't want to see us, then let's stop watching her play the prelude. As for Sister Yan, let's go with fate!"

"Yes."

……

The father and son sat facing each other, without the mother's gentle whispers, and without Xiao Yu'er's laughter, the room seemed extraordinarily lonely and lifeless, just like this dilapidated winter day, with the chill penetrating into the bones.

**

Mrs. Zhang is pretending to be sick, but the old lady in Dingyuan Hou's Mansion is really sick. Her original hale and hearty appearance has long since disappeared, and she is slumped on the bed, not knowing what is going on.

"Madam, are you awake?"

"Ah."

The old lady glanced at the room, except for Nanny Hu, there was no one in sight. The charcoal fire was still flickering on and off, emitting black smoke, the old lady couldn't help but sullen, "What's with the carbon?"

"Returning to the old lady, this... this charcoal was sent by the lady. The old slave didn't look very good, but I didn't have to pick it. You are sick again, and you are afraid of freezing, so you just use it. "

Madam Hu said in embarrassment that it wasn't that she didn't want to use good things, but that there were really no good things to use in the house.After hearing her words, the old lady frowned even tighter.

"Where is the second daughter-in-law?"

"This... Since returning from the palace that day, the second lady has stayed behind closed doors, and she doesn't care much about the affairs of the mansion." Madam Hu sighed.

"..."

Upon hearing this, the old lady didn't ask any more questions, remembering the exceptional silence of Mrs. Guan that day, she didn't say much, she just sighed softly, glanced at the charcoal fires, and frowned even more Tighten up, "Is the eldest daughter-in-law the housekeeper now?"

"Yes."

"Is there no money in Zhongfu? Use such a charcoal fire." The old lady asked dissatisfied.Hu Nanny pursed her lips, and a wrinkle appeared on her face, "A few years ago, it was the second lady who subsidized the food and clothing of the mansion, but now...the eldest lady doesn't have so much care for herself, and the food and clothing in the mansion are all subsidized. The wearability will be worse."

"What do you mean by that?" The old lady got angry and said angrily, "Does it mean that my whole Hou's mansion has to rely on my daughter-in-law's self-sufficiency to live? Go, get some silver taels from my account, and buy some high-quality goods. Here comes the good charcoal."

"This……"

"how?"

Seeing that Madam Hu didn't move for a long time, the old lady's brows could kill a fly, "Master, we have no money in our account, and we have lost a lot of things in the warehouse."

"what!!!!"

"Why are there so few things!?" The old lady felt a little bit in her heart. The things in her warehouse have always been the only ones with keys, and no one else can get in, but the person who knows where the keys are...

Only Brother Ming!

Sin!

It is difficult to guard against house thieves by day and night...

The old lady sat there slumped, as if she was ten years old again, and she was filled with remorse. She only thought that Brother Ming was still a child, playing for a while, and supporting concubines in the mansion. How could he know that he actually stole her own things!

"Master, take care of yourself, it's not worth it to get angry!"

"Go, call the second daughter-in-law over!"

"The second lady said, no one will be seen!"

"It's against her!"

……

After receiving the old lady's order, Madam Hu came to Guan's courtyard again. There was no sound in the main room, and it was surprisingly quiet. Lord Hou had gone to court and hadn't come back yet.

Just as she was about to order someone to report, she saw a young servant rushing in in a hurry, and accidentally bumped into her when she entered the door, causing Mammy Hu to spit and scold her.

She was about to enter the courtyard when she heard an earth-shattering cry from inside, which startled her, and saw the boy running out again in a hurry, she grabbed him, "What are you panicking about? What happened!"

"Mommy, mommy, it's not good, the third young master is gone."

"what?"

Mammy Hu froze, her expression suddenly became serious, she let go, and the servant ran out, but she didn't go in, she turned her head and went back to Songhe Garden, and hurriedly reported the news to the old lady.

**

Second room, main courtyard.

Guan shi hugged the unfinished clothes, wept uncontrollably, wet the front and cried through the sleeves, almost distraught, knelt on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

I don't know how long it took before I heard the sound of hurried footsteps outside. Jiang Wenming rushed over, hugged Guan, and helped her up. Her face was pale, her eyes were dull, and she was staring straight ahead. I don't even know who's coming.

"Madam, wake up Madam!"

"..."

After yelling several times in a row, Guan Shi seemed to have regained his senses, turned his head leisurely, saw who was coming, and hugged Jiang Wenming with a wow, crying loudly.

"Master, our Brother Shu is gone, gone!"

"Ma'am~~"

The two hugged each other and cried, the pain of bereavement was like a bolt from the blue, hitting their hearts one after another, "He hasn't put on the new clothes I made for him, how could he just leave like this!"

"Ma'am, don't be sad, this is fate!" Jiang Wenming burst into tears. The daughter he cared about the most in his life committed a felony and was in the sky prison, and his only son died in a wilderness when his body was exposed.

What a trick of fate!

"I'm going to pick him up. Brother Shu must be waiting for me to pick him up. Let's go!" Mrs. Guan grabbed Jiang Wenming's arm, begged bitterly, and then got up and walked out.
