Chapter 373: Sister, don’t cry
“Sister, don’t cry, I won’t beat you.”
In the midst of the sixth lady’s tears, Li Shu walked to her side to comfort her. He stood up and stretched out his slender hand to wipe away Miss Sixth's tears.
It was okay not to reach out, but once she reached out, Miss Six couldn't stop her tears from being frightened.
"Okay, sister, don't cry. Look, sister threw away the whip." Li Shu looked like an eldest sister comforting her sister, and threw the riding crop in her hand to the ground.
Seeing this, the sixth lady's tears gradually stopped, but because she was so absorbed in crying just now, she was still sobbing uncontrollably at this moment.
"Okay, don't cry anymore." Li Shu stretched out her hands to take Miss Six into her arms and comforted her softly.
In the eyes of everyone, Li Shu was a generous and caring big sister. At this moment, when she saw her sister crying, she softened her heart and stopped pursuing her sister's fault.
Mrs. Linhuai Marquis was just thinking about how to end it. At this moment, she saw Li Shu hugging Miss Six to comfort her, and she felt relieved. Li Shu's future husband-in-law, Zhu Ping'an, had just won the first prize. If Li Shu insisted on pursuing the cause of trouble, he would not be too partial to Zhu'er.
Fortunately, Li Shu stopped in time.
In the eyes of everyone, Li Shu's gentleness continues.
After Li Shu hugged Miss Six and comforted her for a few words, she slowly lowered her head, approached Miss Six's ear with a gentle look on her face, opened her red lips slightly, whispered, and comforted softly again.
Li Shu was so gentle that no one else could hear her comforting words, only Miss Six could hear them.
"Sister, please stop crying. Crying too much will kill people. Have you heard of a story from the Three Kingdoms period? Prince Yuan Shu, have you heard of it? Yuan Shu had a little boy named Feng. Concubine, she is very beautiful, With her round little face and big eyes, she looks like she was born in the same mold as her sister. She is very beautiful. Oh, what a coincidence, this concubine of his is also from the north like her sister."
"Yuan Shu, the concubine named Feng, was originally from the north and fled to Yangzhou. Yuan Shu's hometown is in the south. Oh, just like Zhu Ping'an, she can be considered a southerner. The girl named Feng is so beautiful that she just arrived in Yangzhou to drink Yuan Shu. I'm attracted to it, flower I paid a thousand gold to buy her and kept her as a concubine in the backyard. As for Concubine Feng, she was beautiful and beautiful. She was several times more beautiful than the women in Yuan Shu's backyard. Naturally, Yuan Shu couldn't care less about Shu and doted on Concubine Feng day and night. ”
"Yuan Shu favored Feng Xiaoconcubine in this way, which naturally made other women in the backyard jealous and dissatisfied. So they thought of a way. They suppressed their dissatisfaction and put on smiles and played with Feng Xiaoconcubine every day. What's so delicious about it? It's fun, they all take care of Feng Xiaoconcubine first, even if Feng Xiaoconcubine is interested in the rarest gift given to them by Yuan Shu They gave all the rare items to Feng Xiaoconcubine without hesitation, which was even better than Yuan Shu did to Feng Xiaoconcubine. It was so good that even the stone felt warm. Slowly, Feng Xiaoconcubine also relaxed. Together they become good sisters. The backyard is harmonious and beautiful, and Yuan Shu enjoys the blessings of everyone, so he will naturally not have any objections."
"Good sisters naturally talk about anything when they are together. The other women in the backyard compliment Feng Xiaoconcubine every day, but at the same time they also analyze the future with Feng Xiaoconcubine heartily. Whenever they have the opportunity, they will Feng Xiaoconcubine whispered in her ear that a woman's appearance is temporary, and she will never have an eternal appearance, sister. You will conquer the country today and the city tomorrow, and you will be able to hold our lord's heart firmly in one year and two years. But what about our lord's ambition in the world in five years and ten years? New sisters will keep coming in the backyard. By then, can my sister still guarantee her outstanding appearance, and can she still hold the lord's heart as firmly as she does today? At this time, the other women in the backyard began to help Feng Xiaoconcubine make plans."
"These women said in front of Feng Xiaoconcubine that if they wanted to tie up the man, We must tie a man's heart. If we want to tie a man's heart, we must understand the man's heart. The world naturally likes women who have aspirations for the world. We mentally retarded women cannot gallop on the battlefield like generals, nor can we make decisions thousands of miles away like military advisors, but we can worry about the country and the people."
"Sister. If you often show concern for the country and the people when getting along with your lord, then If we shed a few more tears, our lord will definitely regard his sister as his confidant, and he will naturally love her to the core. Even if there are new people in the backyard, her sister will still be the treasure of the lord's heart."
"Sisters used to love each other. I'm so kind, so I wouldn't lie to him, so Feng Xiaoconcubine believed him every time I was with Yuan Shu. When we were together, I always acted like I was worried about the country and the people. There was a drought in Nanyang and the people didn’t have enough to eat. I was so worried, and then burst into tears. There was a flood in Shouchun, which flooded many crops. I was so poor. Crops, the people are hungry again and burst into tears; there is a plague in Huainan, and bandits are constantly closing the hills"
"As long as Yuan Shu is around, Concubine Feng will cry day and night, Nuo, just like my sister crying like this, sobbing, pear blossoms with rain."
Li Shu leaned against Miss Sixth's ear, Her smile was as bright as a flower, and her face was gentle, but her voice was eerie, just like when Zhu Pingan told her a ghost story.
"After some time, other women in the backyard took advantage of Yuan Shu's absence and strangled Feng Xiaoconcubine to death with a rope, and then hung her from the beam with a white silk ribbon. ”
Hearing this, Miss Six turned pale with fright and tried to break free, but was held tightly by Li Shu. Li Shu continued to speak gently in Miss Six’s ear.
"Then Yuan Shu came and saw Feng Xiaoconcubine hanging on the beam, and was very sad. The women in the backyard told Yuan Shu that Feng Xiaoconcubine committed suicide, saying that Feng Xiaoconcubine had heard that the people in a certain place Living in dire straits, depressed and unhappy, In the end, he couldn't think of committing suicide. Yuan Shu had known this for a long time, so he didn't have any doubts when he heard that Feng Xiaoconcubine had committed suicide. That’s it.”
"Sister, you said you love to cry so much. If you cry so sadly today, you will cry so sadly tomorrow. If one day you accidentally make the same mistake as Feng Xiaoconcubine, some jealous people will hang on you. On the rafters, what will others think? "
Li Shu asked with a smile in Miss Six's ear.
“Ah”
Miss Sixth finally couldn’t bear it anymore and pushed Li Shu away. She screamed loudly, as if she had seen something terrible, and ran away crying. It's open.
It’s so scary, wuwuwu, the fifth sister is so scary! I want to go home.
Miss Six didn't look back, she ran back to her yard crying all the way, as if there was a dog chasing her, she ran very fast.
Before the girls could react, they saw Miss Six running back to her yard without looking back.
Uh
In the eyes of everyone, the sixth lady Li Zhu almost had a guilty conscience. She was moved by someone's gentleness and cried guiltily.
"Okay, the matter is clear. This may be a misunderstanding, maybe Shu'er has misunderstood her sister. I'll come to apologize to Sister Zhu'er another day. I think I'll just let it go."
After the sixth lady left, Li Shu walked to Mrs. Linhuai Marquis, hesitated and said.
Family scandals should not be made public. Li Shuneng took the initiative to settle the matter by aggrieved herself. How could Mrs. Linhuai Marquis disagree?
So, the matter was resolved under the disposal of Mrs. Linhuai Hou. Today's poisonous soup incident was a misunderstanding and had nothing to do with Miss Six. This matter is not allowed to be mentioned again in the future. In addition, in order to comfort Li Shu, Mrs. Linhuai Marquis installed a small kitchen in Li Shu's yard. From now on, Li Shu's meals can be cooked by people in Li Shu's yard, and the expenses required will be paid to the public account. In addition, the girl who was tied to the tree was left to Li Shu at the discretion of the Marquis of Linhuai. The deed of sale was then obtained from Miss Six and given away.
After the matter was resolved, everyone dispersed, and silence returned to Li Shu's courtyard.
In Li Shu's boudoir, there were only two people, Li Shu and Little Maid Baozi. Li Shu wrote a letter at the desk and asked Little Maid Baozi to bring it to Wang Xiaoer:
She was properly placed in the Lingnan Manor and married to a simple and honest local. The dowry was a first-class maid, and she was strictly guarded. She was not allowed to go north. (End of this chapter)
