Chapter 695: The hatred of killing a son and the hatred of a deceased mother!
At least the workshop won’t kick her out just because of a small mistake!
She had a good plan, so she asked Xiao Cuier to find out the details about Lao Hei and others.
Xiaocui didn't like her at first, so she said directly: "Sister-in-law Kong, when I asked you to come here to help with cooking and washing, didn't you dislike Brother Hei and the others for being dirty? Why are you asking these questions now?"
Sister-in-law Kong was a little shameless and said with an embarrassed smile: "I just asked casually."
Xiao Cui ignored her and continued to work.
Sister-in-law Kong was a little embarrassed, turned around and went home.
Lao Hei and others also heard that Chen Hezhi was dead in the city. Lao Hei said: "General, it can't be true, and it can't be true. Everything can pass. Don't get angry. If something happens, our brothers General, you can send out those who are able to contribute.”
"That's right, General, we can't do anything else, but we are also good at killing people. The worst we can do is copy the guy and destroy the Chen family!" A man was half drunk, so he spoke without any scruples.
Li Laosi smiled and said: "It's not a big deal. The emperor personally appointed the Ministry of War to investigate, and the Ministry of War will definitely give a result. It just so happens that I am taking advantage of this period to spend a good year at home!
“Don’t worry, if there is a place where you are needed, I will definitely not be polite to you.”
Lao Hei and others were happy when they heard this. They picked up the wine bowl and drank even more happily...
When Li Laosi came home, the wine table at home was also dispersed. Since there was nothing important, everyone went to bed.
The cold wind in the winter night made the window lattice whistle, and the moon in the sky was frozen and hidden behind the clouds. The sky and the earth became darker and darker, with only the white snow reflecting the pale light.
In the courtyard of the Chen family in Xindu, Mrs. Chen, who had been paralyzed for seven or eight years, suddenly woke up in the middle of the night.
The children and grandchildren in the family are quite filial, and she is well taken care of.
Although he can't walk and it's inconvenient for him to eat, drink or even relieve himself, he still lives a dignified and comfortable life with his maid and mother-in-law taking care of him.
During the day, she suddenly heard that her little grandson had died, and that the white-haired man was giving away the black-haired man. She was very sad.
After dinner, her youngest son was worried about her, so he came over to comfort her for a long time, and then personally fed her half a bowl of soothing soup.
Logically speaking, she should have slept until dawn, but for some reason, she suddenly woke up, her throat burning, and she was very thirsty.
The woman who was in charge of waiting heard the commotion and hurried into the room. She stood by the warm kettle and fiddled with it for a long time, and then brought a cup of warm honey water.
She put the cup to Mrs. Chen's mouth and whispered, "Old madam, drink a glass of honey water to moisten your throat."
Mrs. Chen nodded, drank half a glass of honey water in one breath, and then closed her eyes again.
The grandson died unexpectedly and could only stay at home for three days. There will be a funeral tomorrow morning.
With so many relatives and friends coming over, she had to cheer up and see her grandson off for the last time, and she couldn’t get sick and hold her sons back...
The mother-in-law stayed by the bed, and when the old lady made no movement, she took out a jade bracelet from her sleeve and stuffed it into the old lady's hand.
Then she hurriedly washed the cups and kettle, packed them up, and hurriedly retreated.
In the small penthouse at the entrance of the courtyard, someone was waiting there in the dark.
As soon as the mother-in-law passed by, the man asked in a low voice: "Is everything done?"
The mother-in-law nodded quickly and responded tremblingly: "It's done, it's absolutely right."
The man raised his legs and was about to leave, but the old woman had the courage to ask: "Master, you must not forget the promise you made to me." "Don't worry, once this matter is settled, your grandson will enter Luo'an." Academy." The man waved his hand and walked quietly into the darkness, and soon disappeared.
The mother-in-law retracted from the door, quickly went to bed and covered herself in the quilt, but she didn't fall asleep again and stared all night.
There was deathly silence in the yard until dawn, when the second-class maid who was responsible for taking care of the old lady came into the old lady's bedroom and screamed, causing everyone in the Chen family to gather in a hurry.
“Woo, eldest master, second master, third master, old lady... the old lady seems to have passed away!” The maid turned pale with fright, knelt on the ground, and could not speak completely.
The Chen family immediately rushed into the house. Sure enough, the old lady had her eyes closed, her face was ashen, and she had no breath at all.
Mr. Chen and the third Mr. Chen Chuan were the most filial. They threw themselves on the bed and cried bitterly.
Chen Chuan almost cried so much that he vomited blood. First he lost his son, and now he lost his mother. Most people simply couldn't bear it.
He hugged my mother's stiff body and cried: "Mom, wuwu, mom, why are you gone? How can you let your son live?"
Mr. Chen also cried half to death.
Their father died early, their brothers are mediocre in talent, and most of the family is supported by their mother.
It was only in the past two years that my mother lay paralyzed on the bed, finally relinquishing her responsibilities as the head of the household.
It can be said that the fact that this family has been able to survive to this day is all due to my mother-in-law.
Now that my mother is gone suddenly, my son feels reluctant to part with her and feels even more guilty!
Mr. Chen Er rubbed his eyes until they were red, and he was jumping around and yelling.
"You slaves, how on earth did you serve the old lady! When did the old lady pass away? Why didn't you call the doctor?"
A woman knelt down and cried: "The old lady kept waking up last night, and she kept talking about Master He every time. We served her carefully and persuaded her for a long time, but we didn't expect..."
The other maids were afraid of being punished, so they also agreed.
“Yes, second master. The old lady always loves Young Master He, but suddenly she heard that Young Master He was gone. The old lady couldn’t bear it, so she went with him.”
"The old lady was usually in good health, and the doctors said that the slaves took good care of her. Now that she passed away suddenly, she is so sad. It was really not that the slaves were negligent!"
“Second Master, you see that the jade string in the old lady’s hand was bought by Master He. The old lady was really reluctant to leave Young Master He, so she followed him!”
Fortunately, the second master did not insist on punishing them, and instead shouted to his elder brother and younger brother, "Brother, third brother, Brother He's death was tragic. I wish I could eat Li Qiusheng alive!"
“Now that my mother has passed away because she felt sorry for Brother He, I can’t bear this feeling!
“The Ministry of War said it was an investigation, but everyone knows that they dare not and will not convict Li Qiusheng.
“My mother and Brother He will die in vain in the end, and our Chen family will be trampled under the feet of the Li family who comes from a mud-legged background?
“How can we walk around outside in the future? Everyone will think that our family is a coward with no courage!”
Mr. Chen and Chen Chuan both had red eyes. Chen Chuan stood up and said, "Second brother, what do you think we should do about this matter?"
Mr. Chen Er shook his fist fiercely and looked crazy.
“Mother can be buried in the ancestral grave, but Brother He died suddenly and cannot be buried in it. Instead of letting Brother He be buried in a mass grave, it is better to carry the coffin to Broken Gold Beach and bury Brother He to the entrance of Lijia Village!
“Let the Li family remember the evil deeds they have done year after year, and let everyone in the Li family remember that they are the life and death enemies of the Chen family for generations!
“The imperial court does not care, the Xinting Marquis protects him, and the Ministry of War is perfunctory. He, Li Qiusheng, can rely on these to escape punishment!
“But our Chen family will never forget the hatred of killing a son and the hatred of a dead mother!”
