Riding the Pheonix Chapter 50: Grief


The ladies hurriedly left the inner room and went to the main hall to salute Mrs. Ming.

Old Madam Ming glanced over and said in a deep voice: "Second daughter-in-law, there is no need to be embarrassed. Let Xiao Qi know about this, so let her know it clearly."

The second lady breathed a sigh of relief and agreed: "Yes."

Mrs. Ming sat down in the middle and said, "Mother Tong, tell me!"

Mother Tong wiped her tears and said, "Madam, I didn't sleep well last night, so I went to the altar to sit and copy scriptures for Empress Xuannv. Until the fourth watch, Madam saw that Bing Xin was too sleepy, so she asked her to I went to bed first, saying that I would go to rest when I was sleepy. In the morning, I don’t know where the rumors came from, saying that the sixth master was injured because of his wife’s stabbing, and that the sixth master entered Yu Fang Yuan that night.”

"The servant scolded the servant who spread the gossip and didn't pay much attention. Who wants to hear the news at noon that the sixth lady went to the old lady to cause a scene..."

Everyone looked at the Sixth Madam.

The Sixth Lady lowered her head and said nothing.

"I don't know what the fuss was about, but the rumor spread even more and everyone knew about it. I felt uneasy and went to the altar to look for my wife. After calling for a long time, there was no response. I went in to see my wife. Already..."

Mother Tong cried again.

Ming Wei looked indifferent.

She has never shed a tear since she came in.

Naturally, it is not easy to talk about what happened last night in front of everyone. When Nanny Tong heard these words, it was a different situation for her.

Mrs. Mingsan woke up and found the words she left. She felt uneasy and went to the memorial hall.

As Mother Tong said, rumors spread later.

After saying this, the Sixth Madam made a "plop" sound, knelt down in front of Mrs. Ming, and lowered her head deeply: "This matter is my daughter-in-law's fault. I couldn't hold it back for a moment, and even made trouble in front of my mother, calling someone I believed the rumor that the third sister-in-law had lost her virginity. Although the third sister-in-law committed suicide, it was the daughter-in-law who killed someone with her words. After committing such a big mistake, the daughter-in-law no longer had the face to be a good wife, so she asked herself to go to court to pay for the third sister-in-law's innocence. Reputation."

"No!" the second lady blurted out. Under the eyes of everyone, she calmed down and said, "The third brother and sister have gone, and the sixth brother and sister have invited themselves to come down. What will outsiders think? It's not good to let the third brother and sister go. , are you still being gossiped about? Even if you want to be punished, think of something else that won’t attract attention."

After a pause, she also knelt down in front of Mrs. Ming: "My daughter-in-law is also at fault in this matter. She failed to restrain the servants and actually asked them to spread rumors. It is my daughter-in-law who misbehaved as a housekeeper. Please give mother a heavy punishment."

Both sisters-in-law apologized. When the fourth lady saw this situation, she also knelt down: "My nephew-in-law is in charge of the West Courtyard. It is my nephew-in-law's fault for letting people spread rumors into Yufangyuan."

The second master glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "You have made mistakes, and they are small ones. The real culprit is here!"

After saying that, he kicked the Sixth Master in the leg socket, and the Sixth Master fell to his knees with a plop.

At this time, Master Six was extremely haggard.

But I saw that his eyes were dull, with big bags under his eyes. He had lost a lot of weight. How could he still have any of his original prowess?

"It's all this bastard's fault!" The second master was filled with indignation, "If you hadn't fed me cat urine, how could such a big thing have happened? As a younger brother, it is disrespectful to my widowed sister-in-law. One. Bullying your young niece, this is the second one. It was all your fault, but your third brother and sister lost their lives! You left Xiao Qi alone and helpless! Liu, do you admit this mistake?"

The Sixth Master lowered his head and remained silent from beginning to end.

The second master was so angry that he rushed outside and shouted: "Daxing, come with the family law!"

"Yes." A male servant quickly delivered the cane.

The second master said coldly: "Sixth, my father has already gone, and the eldest brother is in the capital. I will discipline you as the second brother. Do you accept it?"

Until then, the Sixth Master finally uttered one word: "Submit."

"Okay, since you accept it, then accept the family law!"

Master Six didn't say anything, he just buried his head lower.

The second master swung the cane and hit the sixth master **** the back.

The Sixth Master groaned. He was not wearing thick clothes, and blood immediately oozed out.

Mrs. Ming closed her eyes and turned her head to the side, looking very unbearable, but she gritted her teeth and remained silent, as if she was determined to teach the Sixth Master a lesson.

No one made a sound, there were only dull slapping sounds and the Sixth Master's cry of pain.

More and more blood seeped out of the Sixth Master's back, dyeing the rattan red.

Finally, Master Six could not hold on any longer and fell down.

"Master!" The Sixth Madam exclaimed and crawled over.

"Sixth daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Ming shouted, but still turned her head away, but her tone was firm, "He deserves to suffer, even if he is beaten to death!"

The Sixth Lady cried bitterly.

The second master whipped him a few more times, and finally stopped. His tone was sad and painful: "When my grandfather was here, he made a family rule. If any descendant makes a big mistake, he will be whipped for thirty times and driven out of the house. I think of you. You have a weak wife and young children, and you have become a useless person. I will drive you out and leave you without a wife and children. I will keep you for the time being. But from now on, don’t leave the yard."

Only then did Madam Ming turn around, with tears in her eyes: "It's my fault, it's all my fault that I didn't teach him well..."

When the old lady cried, everyone burst into tears.

The second master threw away the cane and knelt down, blaming himself: "My father has passed away and my eldest brother is not here. I, the second brother, have not shouldered the responsibility of teaching and restraining me. It is also difficult for me to do this." Abstain from the blame! Ask mother to punish you. ~IndoMTL.com~ The whole room knelt on the floor, and the fourth master also knelt down silently.

But he didn't say anything, he just buried his head deeply, looking extremely guilty.

At this moment, only two people were still standing in the main hall.

One is Mingwei and the other is Nanny Tong.

Mingwei remained silent since Madam Six started speaking.

Looking at the ladies pleading guilty one by one, watching the sixth master being killed off half of his life, watching the second master grieving, watching these people, each one more sad than the last.

Mother Tong is also standing. If the young lady does not kneel down, she will not kneel down.

"Xiaoqi, Xiaoqi! My great-aunt is sorry for you!" Madam Ming burst into tears and stretched out her hand, "My great-aunt failed to teach your sixth uncle well and harmed you mother and daughter!"

Mingwei still stood motionless, with no expression on his face and no tears in his eyes.

This makes the play somewhat imperfect.

The second lady wiped her tears: "I'm afraid this child is frightened. Mother, please take care of yourself. The third brother and sister have already passed away. I still need you to look after Xiao Qi so that she can rest in peace."

Mrs. Ming didn’t say anything, but tears were streaming down her face.

"Master, Master!" Madam Six suddenly shouted.

The second master stretched out his hand and his expression changed: "Lao Liu! Lao Liu!"

The fourth lady glanced at the silent fourth master, opened her mouth, and said, "Let's treat Uncle Six's injuries first! With so much blood, I'm afraid he will die!"

"Yes!" The second lady also said, "No more lives can be lost in our family."

After several people tried to persuade her, Mrs. Ming finally nodded: "Let's carry him down first. What an evil! I wish I had never given birth to him!"

Crying again as he spoke.

People in the room were either crying or persuading.

Finally, let’s continue this scene.
