Chapter 355 Beaten to death
After Qi Lan gets married, she will definitely stay in the capital and just buy her a Zhuangzi shop in the capital.
But after Qi Mei gets married, will she stay in the capital, settle outside the customs, or live in the headquarters of the Dongfang family?
I don’t know.
She had to ask clearly before she could ask He Donglin to hurry up and buy it.
You know, a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Sisters Qi Lan and Qi Mei looked at each other and said in unison, "Master, no need."
Qi Mei said, "Master, there is no need to do anything. It really is not necessary."
"It's all thanks to you, my little master, that the slave sisters are today. If you hadn't risked your own life and pulled out a sword to help me that day, perhaps the three slaves and their family would still be performing pitifully on the street."< br>
"I have heard that you have already prepared a large dowry for my sisters, so there is no need for those shops."
Qi Lan also said, "Yes, little master, our family of three will never be able to repay your great kindness in our lifetime. You can't let us owe you more debt."
< br>
"Otherwise, we will have to work as cows and horses for you in the next life. Wuwu, I want to be your biological sister in the next life."
Qi Lan was touched and jealous at the same time, and added, "We sisters won't hide it from you. All the money we sisters have earned over the years has been used to buy shops. We only bought three or four shops on the streets of Beijing. I also bought four or five and rented them out. In the past two years, I have received a lot of rent.”
Then, he proudly told Xia Zihan, "Dongfang Yi went to Yusha Pavilion today and told the slaves that the embroidery, jewelry and clothes for our sisters' wedding were all bought from Cuiyuxuan Yusha Pavilion, and my brother-in-law paid for it."< br>
"Master." Then she whispered sneakily, "I tell you, my brother-in-law is rich. Master, you have to kill him severely when the time comes. Huh, who told him to kill me?" My sister is married off.”
He looked very unhappy.
Xia Zihan smiled at the corner of his eyes and nodded seriously, "Don't worry, I won't be soft-spoken."
A few days before the Qi Mei sisters got married, Dongfang Yi went to the Yusha Pavilion Cuiyu Pavilion to check out, and the shop steward Hu Lao opened his mouth and demanded a sum of money. Only then did he realize that he had been tricked by some little girls.
However, this amount of money is not worth a drop in the bucket for him, who is very wealthy.
Moreover, with this little money, he can make his wife happy. He spends it happily and well worth it.
Immediately, with a wave of his hand, he took out fifty thousand taels of silver, without even asking for change, and walked out of the shop in a big way.
Xia Zihan held 50,000 taels of silver in his hands, his eyes narrowed into slits with a smile.
However, she didn't earn much from the 50,000 taels of silver, because the jade, silk threads and other materials she used for clothes and jewelry for sisters Qi Lan and Qi Mei were all very valuable materials.
However, she originally wanted to take the money herself, but now that there is a big rich trap like Dongfang Yi, she will not be soft-hearted.
This is something for later, let’s not mention it for now.
Let’s talk about the three Zeng brothers and sisters first.
After Zeng's group returned from Baoxiang Temple, the three Zeng brothers and sisters settled in the Chu family. A few days later, Zeng resolutely went to school.
Mrs. Zeng also invited an old nanny who retired from the palace to come back and teach the two sisters Zeng Jing and Zeng Ning the rules.
Grandma Yang is very good at teaching rules.
When she was in the palace, she was the nun who was responsible for teaching the new maids the rules. Later, when she got older and reached the age of leaving the palace, she had to leave the palace and became a private nun.
She was notoriously strict when teaching rules. In addition, she already had a rough face and was unsmiling. With just one look, she could scare people's hearts and make them tremble with fear.
After two days of studying, the two Zeng sisters were as tired as dead dogs, and they no longer had the spirit of intrigue.
Zeng Jing saw that Xia Zihan was living a happy and comfortable life, which made her jealous, so she took Zeng's hand and said coquettishly, "Auntie, let cousin Chu Yu learn the rules with us, the two of us Stupid, some things can’t be learned even after several times. With cousin Chu Yu guiding us, we can learn faster.”
There was no need for Xia Zihan to refuse, but Zeng didn't nod, "Your cousin grew up in the capital. She has already learned everything she should learn and know."
"Besides, your cousin is in charge of the middle school in the house and the property outside the house. She is so busy that she has no time to follow you to class."
Zeng Jing snorted, her face full of disappointment.
Zeng Ning said, "After I finish learning the rules, my aunt, I also want to learn to take care of the housework with cousin Chu Yu."
"Well, you should learn a lesson. No matter who you end up with in the future, you must learn to take care of your own little life."
This means that Mr. Zeng agrees.
Zeng Jing and Zeng Ning were very happy, and even took the initiative to get close to Xia Zihan. When talking to Xia Zihan, they felt a little more intimate.
Xia Zihan didn't dislike the closeness between the two cousins of the Zeng family, but he didn't like them much either. He just maintained the superficial affection and politeness.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, the Song family sent people to bring gifts, and Zeng accepted them. With her natal family present, she didn’t want her natal nieces and nephews to see that she didn’t like the Song family, so she took a deep breath and continued to maintain a relationship with the Song family. With a lukewarm exchange.
Although she did not choose to break off relations with the Song family, she only maintained the favor in appearance.
When I returned the gift, I didn't return it double or triple as before. Instead, I accepted the gift in as much silver as I thought it would be.
When the list of return gifts from the Chu family arrived in Song Baiqing's hands, and after scanning it from beginning to end, his face turned pale. "What does that old immortal mean? During the Chinese New Year, she didn't return double the gifts we sent her, so why did she return so little during the Dragon Boat Festival?"
He didn't even think that the gifts he sent to Chu's house were as many as the orders in his hand.
Song Huai advised, "Isn't it just a few hundred taels of silver? As long as we have a shop, why do we care about these few coins?"
"You know shit." Song Baiqing was so angry that he couldn't help but swear at her, "Your great-aunt bought a lot of property when she was doing business in her youth. She had a lot of gold and silver, and she had endless money to spend."
"The Chu family has no successors, and Chu Yu is another loser. Sooner or later, he will belong to someone else's family."
"If your aunt still thinks that your grandmother is her biological sister, why would she leave some benefits to our Song family before she leaves?"
"But now..." For some reason, he felt a little uneasy and felt that something was different.
Especially this time I went to Baoxiang Temple.
Every time his aunt saw him, she had a cold and indifferent expression.
Neither close nor distant, just indifferent.
But why, he was confused.
Just when Song Boqing was puzzled, the Dragon Boat Festival arrived.
On the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, at noon, the mansion prepared New Year's Eve food and wine. Song Boqing was eating in the hall with Mudan, Song Huai and Shi Wenting.
Song Boqing, Song Huai, and Mudan were chatting and laughing while eating.
Seeing that Song Huai was so coaxed by Peony that he laughed and was blinded by a few words, Shi Wenting glanced at Peony secretly, cursed the vixen in her heart, and then immersed herself in eating.
Just when a group of people were happy, suddenly, Ms. Pei jumped in, leaning on a crutch he got from nowhere.
Seeing her husband and son smiling happily around the vixen, Mrs. Pei felt sad. Without saying a word, she stood on one foot, raised her cane and hit Peony hard.
Mudan's position was just close to the door. When Pei's crutch hit him, Mudan had no time to dodge. He only had time to dodge his head and meet his back.
The cane hit her hard on the back.
Mudan spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot and fainted.
"Danniang..."
After Song Boqing reacted, it was too late to save him, and he only had time to scream at the top of his lungs.
Seeing Mudan lying weakly on the table, with blood on the corner of her mouth, her face pale, and her life or death unclear, Song Baiqing became furious. He ignored the presence of Song Huai and Shi Wenting, rushed towards Pei, and kicked her out.
Mr. Pei screamed, and the back of his head and back hit the door frame as hard as stone. His internal organs were damaged and his head was bleeding.
There was a big hole in the back of his head, and blood was pouring out like a tide.
Song Huai, who was about to rush over to pick up Peony, saw this and turned pale with fright. He was heartbroken and rushed towards Pei, "Mother, how are you? Don't scare your son. Mother, please wake up..."
"Hurry up... call the doctor quickly, go call the doctor quickly..." He roared at the servants in the room with splitting eyes.
The housekeeper who came after hearing the news quickly sent a few guards to ask for the doctor.
Song Huai picked up Ms. Pei, whose body was getting colder and colder, and whose life breath was disappearing little by little, and ran towards the yard where Ms. Pei lived.
Song Huai was completely panicked, "Mom, I will carry you back to your room right now. You have to hold on, the doctor will be here soon."
"Mom, don't abandon me, don't abandon this family... I still need you, and dad needs you too. You can't just leave like this..."
Perhaps, the Song family has been guilty of Tai Sui in recent years.
Little Zeng left during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Mrs. Song left on the second day after the Lantern Festival, and Mrs. Pei was also beaten to death by Song Baiqing on the Dragon Boat Festival.
When the doctor arrived, Ms. Pei had just breathed her last breath.
Because all her internal organs were damaged and pretended to be broken, she was not able to say a word to Song Huai before she died, but her eyes were filled with hatred.
The baby in Mudan's belly was also aborted, and even the doctor couldn't save the fetus even after giving her an injection.
It was a wonderful holiday. A moment ago, the four of them were sitting around the table eating and laughing, but in only half a cup of tea, no, only one minute, one of Song Baiqing's two women had a miscarriage, and the other was beaten to death.
Song Baiqing was completely stunned.
He just saw Mudan, who had a big belly, being beaten by that shrew Pei. His anger rose and he kicked her subconsciously.
That kick, because he was so angry, he used all his strength to do it.
But he really never thought about beating Mr. Pei to death.
