A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 23: Eating meat in Buddhist hall?
In Songhe Hall, Su Qingyu knelt at the feet of the old lady with red eyes, and the maid Feicui behind her was still holding a food box in her hand.
The old lady was twirling Buddhist beads in the bedroom at this time. Seeing Su Qingyu kneeling aside with red eyes, she hurriedly asked: "What's going on?"
Su Qingyu lowered her eyebrows and said submissively: "Grandma, I miss my third sister and my eldest brother. It's so cold today. I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it if I don't eat. What if I get sick from the cold?"
The old lady did not expect that Su Qingyu could still care about the brotherhood after going through a conspiracy, and a happy smile appeared on her face.
"It's hard for you to still think about them. You have to bear the cold. It's easy to make such a big mistake and kneel down for three days."
Su Qingyu stretched out her hand to hold the old lady's arm and said coquettishly: "Grandma, I want to ask a favor for my eldest brother and my third sister. I've made some vegetarian dishes. How about we go and have a look and let them have some food?" good?"
Su Qingyu was already bright and pretty, but this act of coquettishness revealed her little daughter's coquettishness. In addition, because of Su Qingyu's words, the old lady couldn't bear to refuse. She looked at the sky and said, "Then go now. Leave early and come back early."
Su Qingyu smiled and helped the old lady up, and the grandfather and grandson walked towards the Buddhist hall in the backyard of Songhe Hall.
As soon as I opened the door to the outer room of the Buddhist hall, I heard laughter coming from inside. It was Cheng Rujin's voice.
"Cousin, if you want to eat this crispy duck, I asked the kitchen to fry it for a while longer."
"Third cousin, this whitebait is specially made for you. Try it to see if it suits your taste."
Then came Su Yuankai's voice, "Thank you very much, cousin. Fortunately, you are thinking of us."
"That Su Qingyu, I will definitely give her no chance to stand up next time."
The old lady's face turned pale and she walked inside.
They saw three people sitting on the floor in the Buddhist hall. Su Yuankai and Su Yihui were eating with their mouths full of oil.
The old lady's traditional habit is to get up early in the morning to offer incense and kowtow, but not to come over in the evening. At this time, the three people kneeling on the ground looked at the door with shocked expressions. The old lady's frightening gaze made the three people shrink their necks unconsciously.
Cheng Rujin reacted the fastest and quickly knelt on the ground to plead guilty, "Grandma, please calm down, this matter is my fault. I was thinking about the cold weather and being hungry and hurting my body, and I forgot the rules of the Buddhist hall. Please punish my grandmother, Rujin will never do anything." Two words."
Su Yuankai and Su Yihui also reacted. They didn't even bother to wipe the greasy corners of their lips and knelt down together to apologize.
But no matter how you look at it, Cheng Rujin is not sincere. Especially Su Yuankai, while pleading guilty, he also swallowed the meat in his mouth hard.
Mrs. Su's chest heaved with anger, and she angrily ordered the maid Zhichun beside her, "Go and inform the Marquis to ask for the ancestral family law. Today I will kill these three evil obstacles in the Buddhist hall."
Su Qingyu supported the old lady, gently rubbed her back and persuaded: "Grandma, calm down. My cousin also feels sorry for my eldest brother, but she has forgotten the rules of our Su family. After all, she is not a Su family, so she is understandable. ."
The old lady thought of Cheng Rujin's life experience, and a trace of disgust subconsciously emerged in her eyes. I thought this girl was well-behaved and sensible before, but now she seems to be confused.
"Rujin, you are going to the Shen family to be a concubine. Although you are not a girl from our Su family, you grew up in the Su family. You must not act like this again after you go to the Shen family. It will lose the face of the family."
The old lady deliberately said that she was not a girl from the Su family, just to beat her up, and secretly she didn't want to admit her identity.
Cheng Rujin lowered his head and knelt on the ground, clenching his silver teeth and hating Su Qingyu in his heart. If it weren't for Su Qingyu, why would grandma come to the ancestral hall at this time?
"Yes, grandma, I don't dare anymore."
Not long after, Su Chengye, the Marquis of Pingning, walked in quickly, followed by the steward Su Zhong, who was holding a whip in both hands.
On the way here, Su Chengye already knew what was going on, so after entering the door, he pulled out the whip and hit Su Yuankai on the back first.
what.
Su Yuankai let out a scream and blood oozed out of his back.
Su Qingyu's eyes flashed with the pleasure of revenge, and she felt relaxed all over.
After three whips in a row, Su Chengye stopped what he was doing. Su Yuankai had never been punished like this before. He knelt beside Su Chengye's legs, hugged his legs and begged for mercy.
The old lady stood by without saying a word, twirling the small-leaf Buddhist beads with her eyes slightly narrowed.
Seeing Su Chengye stop, he said, "It's not easy for my daughter to be whipped. The two of them should just kneel here for three days."
"Mother Yuan, you personally lead the people here to watch. You are not allowed to give them food, and you are not allowed to be lazy. They must kneel down for three days before talking."
Punishment of kneeling in the Buddhist hall is a common punishment method in the inner houses of aristocratic families. Ordinary punishment kneeling can be used to rest from time to time, and you can even take a nap. This time the old lady was very aggressive and refused to be accommodating. Kneeling for three days in the dead of winter could kill half of a person's life.
Without waiting for the two to plead, the old lady walked out. Obviously she didn't want to say any more. Seeing this, Su Chengye ordered people to carry Su Yuankai back and left.
Only Cheng Rujin and Su Yihui were left in the Buddhist hall, as well as Aunt Yuan and her maid looking forward to summer.
"You two ladies, please kneel down properly." Aunt Yuan said in a deep voice.
The two of them had to kneel down facing the Buddha statue. Su Qingyu looked at the food box in her hand and said regretfully: "Then I can only take these vegetarian dishes back. When the two sisters go out, I will pick them up for you." "
Early the next morning, as soon as Su Qingyu got up, she heard that Songhetang had sold two gatekeepers. She smiled lightly, it was time to improve the house.
After breakfast, she went to greet the old lady again. Su Qingyu asked Pearl to call her mother's companion, Lin Er, to come in.
Lin Er is in his forties and manages Lin's other dowry assets besides the shop. For example, the farms on the outskirts of the city and the real estate in the city are all managed by Lin Er.
"Miss, what do you want from me?" Lin Er came in and bowed before asking.
Su Qingyu motioned for him to sit down, ordered someone to serve tea, and then whispered: "Second Uncle Lin, I have something to trouble you about. Help me find a safe and smart person to go to Xuan Mansion to investigate."
Seeing Su Qingyu's solemn words, Lin Er's expression became solemn, "Miss, just give me your orders."
Su Qingyu said: "I suspect that Su Yuanche is not of his father's blood. My father brought the child back from Xuan Mansion, and the concubine named Mo Yu was taken in by my father when he was sent away. I would like to invite Lin Er Uncle, please help me check whether Mo Yu is pregnant or not, as well as the details of the birth."
Since they said that Su Yuanche was the son of his concubine Mo Yu, she would just use their plan to see what they had to say in the end.
Lin Er's expression changed when he heard this, "This matter is of great importance. I will go to the Xuan Mansion in person and tell the public that something happened in my hometown and I went back to visit my relatives."
Su Qingyu thought for a while and said, "That's fine. Second Uncle Lin is careful in handling things. I will feel relieved if you go there in person."
Then he whispered: "If this child is not Mo Yu's father, then the evidence must be on paper. It is best to bring back whoever can be brought back."
"Don't be afraid of spending money. Bring more money when you go out."
"Also remember, no matter how many are found, you must come back before the Chinese New Year."
