Chapter 527 Kneel down!
After Song Pearl watched Li Sanniang's carriage go away, she turned around and went back to the Song Mansion.
But when Song Pearl returned to the main hall, there was no girl standing beside her, only Mrs. Song whose face was full of frost, and the mother-in-law standing at the door who looked over with distressed eyes, Song Pearl's little animal-like intuition knew that she had to kneel in the ancestral hall.
“Kneel down!”
Song Zhenzhu didn’t say anything, and knelt down directly on the soft cushion placed by her mother-in-law. The lady was speechless for a while.
Song Zhenzhen lowered her head and stared at the floor tiles in the house, thinking about what Li Sanniang said about something strange happening in her own palace.
“Song Pearl!”
Suddenly being called with her last name together, Song Pearl was so frightened that she suddenly looked up at Mrs. Song. Her confused look made Song, who was already angry, Madam was even more angry.
“What’s the expression on your face?
Are you looking so innocent now?
You are amazing!
Auntie, I’ve told you the truth several times before, why don’t you understand it?
You actually have the audacity to inquire about other people’s family affairs! "
Song Pearl shrank her neck and quickly lowered her head, feeling uneasy: "No wonder when I came back after seeing Li Sanniang off, I didn't see Xiaotao standing at the door!
I’m afraid not, my mother-in-law had already interrogated Xiao Tao just now, and she should have heard the things I did from Xiao Tao’s mouth.
It’s over. Grandma looks very angry. What should I do?
Is it not only necessary to kneel in the ancestral hall, but also to copy scriptures? "
Mrs. Song looked at Song Pearl, who lowered her head and looked dishonest, her eyes darting around, all her thoughts showing on her face, and she felt angry again!
“Mommy, please help me! "
"Madam!
Madam, she is still young and still needs guidance from my wife. It is a hot day, so it is not good to get hurt.
Why do you have to ask a family lawyer?
Madam, let’s go around my wife this time. "
The mother-in-law knelt down and begged Mrs. Song like this. She also turned her face and winked at Song Pearl. Song Pearl's IQ was now online. She immediately kowtowed on her forehead and said pitifully: “Aniang, Zhenniang knows she was wrong!
Aniang, Zhenniang never dares to do it again!
Grandma, please forgive Zhenniang for this. Grandma, Grandma, Zhenniang is afraid of pain. ”
As she spoke, Song Pearl’s voice sounded like she was crying. When she raised her head, tears flowed down the corners of her eyes.
It’s not that Song Pearl was timid. In fact, when Song Zhenzhen made mistakes earlier, she was mostly punished by Mrs. Song to kneel in the ancestral hall and miss a meal.
Even if the fault was bigger, it was just to kneel and copy in the ancestral hall. Just the Buddhist scriptures
But there were two times when Song Pearl made big mistakes. One time, she took her third-brother's daughter-in-law to watch fishing in the Jianhe River outside the city, and accidentally let her cousin fall. Entering the river, thanks to the help of a servant girl who knew how to drink water, disaster was avoided
But even then, the daughter-in-law of the third wife was still frightened. She contracted the cold after returning home and had to stay in bed for half a month before she recovered.
That time, Mrs. Song used a cane stick to beat Song Pearl on the palm of her hand more than twenty times. It took half a month to get over it.
The second time, Song Zhenzhen followed Mrs. Song to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet at the Princess's Mansion, and had a dispute with a certain noble girl. The two fought in the garden, and Song Zhenzhen caught the noble girl. The woman's face was scratched on the forehead, the skin was broken and bleeding, and she was considered disfigured.
Although Song Pearl's arm was also scratched by the noble girl, Song Pearl moved her hand first, and secondly, her arm is not more important than her face, right?
On that occasion, Song Pearl’s palms were also swollen from the beating. She could not hold anything for more than half a month. She was also grounded by Mrs. Song for two months. She had to kneel in the ancestral hall with her good right hand to copy scriptures every day. .
Therefore, when Song Zhenzhen heard that Mrs. Song wanted to ask for help, she was so scared that she cried just thinking about the pain.
But how could Mrs. Song bear such a tone?
“I must teach her a lesson today and let her know the importance of coming back!
Can’t coddle her in this matter!
Otherwise she will suffer a big loss in the future ! ”
Mrs. Song thought like this and looked firmly at Song Pearl, who was kneeling down and crying with a pitiful look on her face. "Please help me!"
Seeing Mrs. Song's appearance, the mother-in-law knew that she couldn't persuade her, so she had to get up and get a stick made of rattan.
“Come to me, reach out!”
Song Pearl hesitated for a moment, but looking at Mrs. Song’s appearance, she had to get up, pick up the mat, kneel in front of Mrs. Song’s heels, stretch out He took out his left hand, hesitantly pointing his palm upward.
"The mistake you made this time has caused a lot of trouble. Thirty swats will give you a long memory.
After these 30 swats, you will be grounded from tomorrow. You will be copied in the ancestral hall. After reading ten volumes of Buddhist scriptures, I really realized my mistake, let’s talk about letting you go out.
Stretch your hands straight!” He bit his lower lip with his upper teeth, and grabbed his skirt with his right hand to endure it.
Song Zhenzhu didn't dare to say a word, and held back the painful sound that was about to come out of her mouth.
Song Zhenzhu was still a girl who had been pampered since she was a child. The tears on her face looked like they were free of money. She was crying like rain. She looked very pitiful.
After thirty blows, Song Pearl let out a muffled groan.
The mother-in-law immediately stepped forward to help Song Pearl stand up, picked up the wound medicine that had been prepared long ago and applied it to Song Pearl.
Then another girl came in at the door, carrying a bowl of steaming soup.
“Madam, drink it while it’s hot, otherwise you’ll suffer a lot later.”
Song Zhenzhen knew that it was best to drink the medicine at this time, so she picked up the medicine bowl and drank it while blowing on it.
As soon as I finished drinking and put down the bowl, I was fed sugar in my mouth. "My wife, please take it to remove the bitter taste."
The mother-in-law wiped Song Pearl with a handkerchief dipped in water. After wiping away the tears on her face, she took some facial cream and applied it to her face.
"Come here, tell me the reason for the beating you received?
Explain to me all your faults!"< br>
Song Pearl had just been beaten and was in a mood. She looked away and didn't want to pay attention to Mrs. Song's words.
It was the mother-in-law who provided lubricant between mother and daughter, and Song Pearl sat down obediently in front of Mrs. Song and whispered her mistakes one by one.
“I shouldn’t have spent money in private to go to the British government to inquire about Mr. Xu Sanlang’s private affairs.
I shouldn’t have found out that Mr. Xu Sanlang had proposed to marry Li Sanniang. I can't cause trouble for Li Sanniang at the family banquet.
I can't think of trouble for her in the hospital where she is on duty just because I lost face.
I shouldn't have lost my dignity and deliberately approached Mr. Xu Sanlang on Chinese Valentine's Day to ask him for a clear explanation. "
After saying this in a low tone, Song Pearl lowered her head and said nothing.
Mrs. Song waited for a while, and when she saw that Song Pearl didn't speak anymore, she pulled out of her throat. Suddenly he uttered: "What else? "
Song Pearl raised her head and looked at Mrs. Song's sharp mouth, and reluctantly added: "I shouldn't hide all these things from my mother-in-law. I should have made it clear to my mother-in-law earlier. . ”
Today I had tuna bibimbap and spicy chicken feet. There was a lot of it and it was quite delicious.
The rice here tastes great, but I don’t know which brand it is, and I’m too embarrassed to ask.
