One hundred and thirty-one is helpless
This time he went out, he knew that the situation was much worse than he expected, outside after the thirteenth lady hanged herself, the ninth lady also hit the stone pier at the gate of the courtyard, and now she is surrounded by people, life and death are unknown.
For so many years, the Liu family had never tasted like this.
They are noble in front of people, and they are also honored after people, and people in a clan have always supported each other, given each other face, united and friendly, and have a lot of business to do.
does not treat anyone harshly or hold anyone because of intimacy.
It is precisely because of this that the Liu family has been able to respond to the call in Rongcheng and stand on it for so many years.
But now, all of a sudden, things have changed.
Everyone's trust in Liu Biping and the elders in the clan was completely exhausted because of the death of several children.
Old lady Liu herself felt uncomfortable----- one of the dead ones was still Jinshi, and maybe it would be another Liu Biping in the future, and it was the hope of the family's future.
He himself has put a lot of thought into them, hoping that they will carry forward the family.
Tears slowly appeared in his eyes, and after a long while, he sighed, and was crumblingly supported by his subordinates, and stomped on the crutches in his hand.
But the crying was too loud, and the shouting was too loud, and no one heard it.
The butler looked at his face and hurriedly shouted: "All the old ladies and gentlemen, don't make any more trouble, what will it look like if you continue to make trouble like this?" The old lady is here, what do you have to do, tell the old lady well, the old lady can always make decisions for you! ”
In the past, there were still people who believed this, but now, who still believes it?
The ninth master of the third room knelt down not far from Mrs. Liu with tears in his eyes and kowtowed, and his tone was still choked: "Old lady! To be fair, after so many years, we have done our best to do things for our clan......"
He couldn't go on, so he hid his face and cried for a while before he forced himself to say: "But now, look at us, the children who are so easy to raise, now they are gone, and they don't even have an explanation!" ”
How many twenty years does a person have in his life, he spent twenty years of energy to raise him, and he was easily a young jinshi who was one in a million, but it was gone in a blink of an eye.
The clan has to give him an explanation!
Some people cried one after another, and the old lady Liu looked at them with some difficulty, knowing that this matter was difficult to be easy to get better, sighed, and said slowly: "Biping he went to Qinghe County to deal with the matter of Haikou, and when he comes back, I will definitely ask him to give you an explanation......"
As he was talking, a small man who looked like a guy suddenly ran in outside, went straight to the seventh master, and said to him loudly: "Master! The sixteenth young master is back! The sixteenth young master is back! ”
Everyone was stunned.
Except for a few people in the clan who really couldn't help them, and some concubines who were arranged to take care of business, the other people from six to twenty-two or so all went to the post house dinner.
The Sixteenth Young Master is one of them.
said before that a few people died, but there was no sixteenth young master who recognized him, that is, he was indeed alive.
But Shen Chen looked at people so tightly, how could he let people go so easily?
Old lady Liu was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Really?!" ”
The little guy nodded his head like pounded garlic: "It's true! I really went back, they went to pick it up in person, and I picked it up from the post house! ”
Old lady Liu was stunned.
Master Liu also looked back at them with a stunned face, not knowing how to react.
Or the seventh master grabbed the placket of the little maid's clothes and asked him, "What the hell is going on?!" Are you clear? Is it only the sixteenth young master who came out? What about the others?! ”
His own son was also in it, still the youngest, and was taken by his brothers to see the excitement.
He was originally a scholar, and he didn't care about anything, if it weren't for the fact that his youngest son was involved, he wouldn't have come to make trouble today.
The little guy answered, and nodded breathlessly: "Only the sixteenth young master came out alone!" I heard it, I heard it because ..... Because the sixteenth young master begged Xu Dashanren and asked Xu Dashanren to go to the door, and saw the Hou Ye of Qincha, the Hou Ye somehow agreed to release him....."
There was a brief silence throughout the courtyard.
Asked for the Xu family?
It's really a joke, in Rongcheng, the people of the Liu family actually went to beg the Xu family one day, waiting for the Xu family to find a way for them?!
Old lady Liu felt a chill in his heart, he knew that it was over.
It's all over.
At this beginning, the clansmen will feel that Liu Biping is useless, the Liu family clan is useless, and they can't protect the younger generations, and they can't protect the people surnamed Liu. But on the side of Lord Chincha, all he had to do was ask for it and say good things.
Isn't it obvious who is more worthy of trust and who is more worthy of flattery?
No parent would be willing to gamble with their child's life.
Liu Biping didn't know about this before, but did he know how to react? In addition to angering Shen Chen and making Shen Chen kill more people, what else did he do?
He ran to Qinghe County and chose to be out of sight.
Believe him?
Old lady Liu smiled bitterly, she didn't believe it.
Sure enough, after the little guy finished speaking, the seventh master swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at the old lady Liu here.
Then, without saying a word, he suddenly knelt down and kowtowed three times to Old Lady Liu.
Everyone was stunned, and the courtyard was filled with indescribable silence and embarrassment.
It didn't take long for the Seventh Master to stand up in silence again, pick up the lady who was already crying without a sound, and slowly walked out of the courtyard together.
Their departure seemed to be a beginning, but after a while, the crowd that had been noisy just now gradually quieted down, and some people followed them out from time to time.
Old lady Liu closed her eyes painfully and didn't say a word for a while.
It wasn't until the people were almost gone that Master Liu and Mrs. Liu hurriedly shouted.
Mrs. Liu waved her hand, with helplessness and a sneering smile, looked at the empty yard, then looked at Mr. Liu and Mrs. Liu, and asked them: "What else can I do now?" Can it be retained? If you stay any longer, you will become an enemy! ”
Yes, they themselves couldn't bear it and didn't want to help them save their son, now as long as they begged Shen Chen, their son was able to come back, if the people of the Liu family wanted to stop it again, they were afraid that the clansmen would immediately become angry, which would cause a huge conflict.
It's just that now, although there is no conflict, in fact, people's hearts have been irrepressibly dissipated.
Liu Biping......
Liu Biping, this descendant he used to be the most optimistic about, but now it seems that he is no longer his favorite junior, he has become unrecognizable, so that he doesn't know him anymore.
Mrs. Liu sobbed quietly. She really felt discouraged, for so many years, she had never seen the Liu family so helpless.
