..................
The several large houses in the backyard of the Hu Mansion are the bedrooms of the master's family.
The moon flower window, the candlestick is bright, the light yarn is swaying, and the night is cool.
Mrs. Hu sat in front of the dressing table near the window, raised the bronze mirror in her hand to look at it for a while, and then dropped it and let out a soft sigh.
She was only in her early twenties, beautiful in appearance, and the head of the family, who should have been pampered and leisurely, but there was a faint melancholy between her eyebrows.
Xiu'er took a fur shawl behind her, put it on her lady gently, looked down again, and then walked to the side and said understandingly: "Don't worry, Madame, the son will turn around soon!"
"He spends his days either looking for immortals and visiting the Tao, or touring the mountains to see the scenery, and he has no intention of staying at home and keeping his business at home, even if he turns around, what can he do?"
Before Mrs. Hu finished speaking, she sighed gloomily: "My father-in-law and mother-in-law passed away one after another, and the elders of the clan forced him to marry me." And now I not only have to keep the empty house alone, but also take care of the housework, how can people live such a life......
Mrs. Hu's name is Sha Qiulan, since she married into the Hu family, she is very virtuous and hardworking, but she also has unspeakable hardships, so she complains in her spare time, just to comfort herself.
Xiu'er had the heart to persuade her, but she didn't know how to speak, so she simply pursed her mouth and sighed with a sigh.
At this time, a voice came from outside the door: "Madam, the gentleman you took in actually cast a spell to seal Gongzi's cave mansion, and didn't let anyone get close to half a step, so anti-guest-oriented, it's really unreasonable, I might as well take a few bankers to blast him out......"
Mrs. Hu was bored with herself, and raised her voice: "But all monks are pretentious and high-minded, and they have many quirks, Uncle Hu doesn't have to pay attention to them, just let him be!"
There was no movement outside the door.
And after a while, I heard Hu Bo say in a loud voice: "Oh, how is this a good ......?"
Madame Hu tore off the shawl on her body, got up and turned around and was about to have a seizure. Women are in charge of the house, and they must not be weak, otherwise there will be constant trouble, so that people will not be idle for a moment. And before she could ask aloud, she heard a woman shouting outside the door: "What about my brother......"
Sister-in-law is here?
She lives in Beishan Fort, dozens of miles away, why did she return to her parents' house at night?
Mrs. Hu was stunned and walked out the door.
I saw a woman standing in the courtyard, about twenty years old, wrapped in a cotton robe, her body was a little bloated, but she was carrying a Qingfeng sword, looking angry. When she saw Mrs. Hu, she held her long sword and shouted "sister-in-law", and said in a hurry: "What about my brother......
The person who came was Hu Yucheng's sister-in-law, Hu Shuangcheng.
Mrs. Hu was surprised: "Your brother has been out for many days and has not returned, Shuangcheng sister, you are ......"
Hu Shuangcheng waved his sword and said hurriedly: "Someone injured Yuesheng, I want my brother to avenge his sister-in-law, but he is not at home, oops, I will personally find the door......"
Yuesheng, Wu Yuesheng, Hu Shuangcheng's husband, is a scholar from a well-to-do family in Beishan Fort, who was injured for some reason and had to return to his mother's house to move the rescuers.
Mrs. Hu hurriedly walked a few steps, stretched out her hand to stop it, took a step back, and signaled: "Shuangcheng, you are already pregnant with Liujia, how can you dance with a gun and a stick, in case you have a fetal gas, it will be too late to regret it!" She turned to Hu Bo and ordered: "Order the stove room to send some hot soup and rice, and then give an order outside the hospital, Miss will stay with me to rest and return early tomorrow morning." Sister, the winter night is cold, and go into the house to keep warm, tell my sister-in-law the details......"
Hu Shuangcheng still wanted to argue, but was pulled into the house by her sister-in-law.
......
Early the next morning, Hu Shuangcheng left in a carriage.
Before leaving, Mrs. Hu gave a few words, meaning not to be angry, not to be reckless, and to wait for Hu Yucheng to return home before making a claim. And she watched the carriage go away, still uneasy, standing alone under the big tree in front of the door for a long time, and was urged by Xiu'er several times, and then sighed and gave up for the time being.
According to Hu Shuangcheng, her husband-in-law, Wu Yuesheng, although he is also handsome, is pedantic by nature, and always likes to go against a few literary friends to chant poems, which is nothing more than a vassal and elegant act, but fortunately, it is not a big problem to have a solid family background. Unexpectedly, he was playing in the suburbs recently, and was inadvertently ridiculed, so he got into an argument with someone, and was beaten up.
After he went home, he was ashamed and hateful, and he was angry with Hu Shuangcheng, only saying that the mother-in-law in the family was too rude and stupid, which caused the disaster, and so on. And the real reason is that the person who committed the murder is the son of a big family in the town near Zuo, and he can't afford to offend at all.
Hu Shuangcheng's father and mother passed away one after another, and it was also a helpless move for her and her brother to marry one after another. And she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and she is a fake man, making swords, guns, bows and arrows, but she can't hold embroidery needles. She knew that she was at a loss, and with Liujia in her body, she also returned to her heart and just wanted to live a flat life. And she was insulted for no reason, she just wanted to beat people, and she couldn't bear Wu Yuesheng's pity, so she went back to her parents' house in a rage. originally wanted to sue, but she was afraid of her sister-in-law's jokes, so she simply asked her eldest brother Hu Yucheng to come forward to take revenge, which could be regarded as adding a bit of her mother's prestige.
The children of the secular family are always inevitably disturbed by the world, which seems trivial and boring, but they are always present and cannot be avoided.
However, Mrs. Hu only cared about comforting Hu Shuangcheng, but forgot about the guests at home. Besides, the man was covered in bruises and had a strange temperament, and it was a fluke that he didn't get into trouble, and who remembered him!
And the trouble that should come, just like the wind of this season, inadvertently dyed with frost, but also withered the mountains and forests, and only then did I realize that the moment I realized it was already full of desolation in the cold winter.
Three days later, the carriage of the Wu family came again, but Hu Shuangcheng was missing, but the old man who drove the car, who was an old family member of the Wu family, smashed open the courtyard door in a panic, and collapsed to the ground when he saw Mrs. Hu.
It turned out that after Hu Shuangcheng went home, he was abused by Wu Yuesheng again. The woman was originally hot, and she couldn't bear it anymore, and in anger, she actually carried her sword and went to find someone to settle the score. The place she was going to was Zuojia Village, dozens of miles away.
It is reported that there is a son of a wealthy family in the village, named Zuo Jia, who returned from a study trip from afar. It was he who met Wu Yuesheng on the way, so he mocked wantonly, and then beat him again, which was very arrogant and unstoppable.
And Hu Shuangcheng was tired for days, coupled with the bumps in the carriage, when he arrived at Zuo's house, before he pulled out the sword to find the theory, he was pushed out of the door by several stout men, and as a result, he fell to the ground, and suddenly moved the tire and his lower body was red.
The family members who were driving the car were so frightened that they hurriedly called for help, but the Zuo family ignored them behind closed doors. The old family had to take the young lady back in a hurry, and while he was still halfway, the baby in the womb came out early and died in the middle of the road. Fortunately, Hu Shuangcheng's body was strong and he finally saved his life, but he was reprimanded by Wu Yuesheng, and the competitive woman was full of grief and anger, and finally fell on the bed......
Hearing the bad news suddenly, Mrs. Hu's face turned pale with shock.
She hurriedly asked Hu Song to drive, and Xiu'er followed the Wu family's family straight to Beishan Fort. When she arrived at Wu's house, it was already dusk, and she happened to see Wu Yuesheng sitting alone in the courtyard drinking wine. She turned to the dormitory, and ordered Xiu'er and Hu Song to stay in front of the door, not allowing anyone from the Wu family to come close for half a step, and then hurriedly rushed into the house.
Hu Shuangcheng was lying on the couch, his hair was scattered, his face was sallow, his eyes were red and swollen, he was stupid, and he didn't look like a person. Suddenly, when I saw Mrs. Hu, before she could speak, tears flowed down her face, adding to the tragedy. The sister-in-law hugged their heads and cried......
Mrs. Hu stayed at Wu's house for two days, reprimanded Wu Yuesheng, and then left Xiu'er to take care of Hu Shuangcheng, and then returned to Nanshan Fort with Hu Song. There is no master at home, and she is really lacking in skills.
However, half a month later, the real owner of the Hu family returned.
At noon, the group of three arrived at the pond in the valley. One of the men, in his twenties, had a slightly dark face, bright eyebrows, and a smile, and raised his hand to signal: "The house is simple, but it is better to be quiet, although Brother Dong and Brother Xiao live in peace, wouldn't it be nice for you and me to talk leisurely!"
The strong man accompanying him, in his thirties, was called Dong Li, and the middle-aged scholar was called Xiao Wenda. The two of them were dressed like immortal cultivators, but they cultivated as ordinary.
"Hehe, what Brother Hu said is extremely true!"
"This place is located in the mountains, but it is adjacent to Nanshan Fort, which can be described as a suitable movement and quiet, and it is really a rare place!
"Please—"
While the three of them were laughing, the gate of the courtyard not far away was wide open. Hu Song and Hu Bo greeted him, clasped their fists and saluted, calling them "Childe", and greeted the two guests. Then a woman in a silk brocade robe slowly stepped out of the threshold, it was Mrs. Hu, but there was no joy of reunion, but her pretty face was frosty. She stood in front of the door and bowed.
Hu Yucheng didn't think much about it at all, and stretched out his hand to recommend: "Brother Dong, Brother Xiao, this is Neizi Qiulan, as well as the housekeeper Hu Bo and the porter Hu Song and Brother Hu, hehe!"
Dong Li and Xiao Wenda only bowed slightly, which was regarded as a return salute, and continued to look at the scenery of the valley, not taking the three mortals in their eyes at all.
And Hu Yucheng went out for more than a month, and when he returned home today, he was in a good mood, and said with great interest: "Lan'er, my two friends are both immortal cultivators with high mana, and they can't wait for anything, and they ordered the stove room to prepare a banquet to wash the ......dust for the two of them."
When Dong Li and Xiao Wenda heard the reception, their spirits lifted, they looked at each other and smiled, and they hurriedly waved their hands and humbly claimed that they didn't need to see outside.
Mrs. Hu was indifferent, looked down at the green stone on the steps, and said word by word: "Your sister-in-law Hu Shuangcheng was beaten, causing the fetus in her womb to die and almost lose her life. And you have no home to return to, and you are free to forget yourself. Could it be that this is where your realm of cultivating immortals lies?" she said this, raised her head, her eyes were already full of tears, and she said sadly: "I am a weak woman, I have to bear the food, drink and Lazar of the family, and also take care of the crops and crops. Please also ask the son to take me off, so that I can cultivate and become an immortal with peace of mind, Sha Qiulan is here to thank you-"
The woman was speechless at the end. She endured it for many days, and finally took the opportunity to vent it, but she added a little helplessness and grievance, took two steps back, and hid behind the courtyard gate and cried.
Hu Yucheng suddenly froze in place, his face changed, he suddenly woke up, and ran into the courtyard. And he wanted to comfort Qiu Lan, but he was ashamed and anxious, and he was very flustered, turned around and went to the door, and invited Hu Bo and Hu Song to ask in front of him. But after a moment, he stomped his foot and said angrily: "My sister-in-law is incompetent, and the Zuo family is hateful!
Before his anger fell, the man had already galloped away with his wind control technique. Dong and Xiao also seemed to be indignant and followed closely behind.
In the blink of an eye, three figures left the valley.
Hu Bo raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and said with emotion: "With a huge family business, you can't live without a man!"
Hu Song spat and said, "The son and the two immortal elders are both masters, and this time they will definitely make the Zuo family suffer!"
Mrs. Hu stood against the door, tears still stained on her cheeks. She looked at her back in the distance and sighed secretly.
does not seek justice, but only asks Yucheng to live with peace of mind from now on......
