Chapter 624: The Truth Revealed
In the south of Bianjing City, in the general's mansion, Zhong Wuji hurriedly led a country woman to see Zhang Qiurong. During this period www.biquge.info of time, Zhang Qiurong was in good spirits after taking the prescription prescribed by Liu Wufei, and the time of sanity was greatly increased compared with before.
Look at this woman in her twenties, dressed plainly, it is the daughter of the midwife who delivered Zhang Qiurong back then, Xiao Liu. When he saw this country woman, Zhang Qiurong was also very puzzled, and asked, "Wuji, is this girl ......?"
Zhong Wuji bowed and responded: "Madam, she is Xiao Liu, the daughter of Grandma Liu." After almost two months of searching, Wuji finally found her. ”
Zhong Wuji's words were a little excited, but Zhang Qiurong frowned and tightened, and said suspiciously: "Grandma Liu?
The country woman respectfully bowed, "Meet Madame." According to my mother, it was thanks to my wife's intercession that my mother was able to save her life. "What this country woman said was that Grandma Liu took a dead baby for Zhang Qiurong back then, and Master Qin was sad and furious, and wanted to kill Grandma Liu to confess. Fortunately, Zhang Qiurong begged for mercy on the side, and Grandma Liu was able to save her life, get silver taels, and was sent back home safely.
Speaking of the events of that year, Zhang Qiurong shed tears on his clothes again, and choked up: "Eighteen years ago, my Ling'er died young, this is my life, I can't blame anyone, Grandma Liu is conscientious and protects me, and in the end she failed to keep the child, it is not her fault." All of this is fate. ”
The country woman said in a trembling voice: "Madame is charitable, my mother is grateful for Madame, and when she returns home, she tells me that I must remember this great kindness." If I find an opportunity in the future, I must thank my wife. ”
Zhang Qiurong sighed and said: "The matter has passed, what's the use of mentioning it again? By the way, is your mother doing well now?"
The country woman's expression was gloomy, her eyebrows lowered, Zhang Qiurong looked at Zhong Wuji in surprise, and also understood. Zhang Qiurong said: "Could it be your mother's ......"
The country woman cried: "Madame Mingjian, don't hide it from Madame, my mother was killed the day after Madame gave birth." ”
"How can this be?" Zhang Qiurong's whole body trembled in shock, she looked at Zhong Wuji in amazement, but his face was very calm, Zhang Qiurong asked him in a trembling voice: "Wuji, is this the matter...... You already knew?"
Zhong Wuji nodded indifferently and responded truthfully: "Since Miss Ling'er died, Madame has been in a state of illness, and the General's Mansion has no time to pay attention to Grandma Liu. But just about two months ago, Wuji happened to pass by Liujia Village and heard someone in a teahouse that Grandma Liu died strangely the next day. The villagers also said that on the day of Grandma Liu's death, a fierce woman broke into the village. ”
Hearing this, Zhang Qiurong's tears rolled down, she was sad, she sighed: "Grandma Liu is a kind person, she treats me wholeheartedly, and serves me wholeheartedly to give birth to Ling'er, such a good person, who killed her? Why did you kill her?"
Zhong Wuji said: "Wuji inquired in many ways, only to learn that Grandma Liu has a daughter who is married outside, that is, Xiao Liu, so Wuji quietly tracked down Xiao Liu's whereabouts, and finally, let Wuji see her as he wished." ”
This Xiao Liu answered: "Yes, madam. When Mr. Wuji found me, he asked me about the cause of my mother's death......"
Zhang Qiurong couldn't wait to say, "Tell me quickly, how did your mother die?"
Xiao Liu said slowly: "Madam, next, I want to tell you the truth, but I beg Madame not to get excited, Xiao Liu doesn't want to stimulate Madame, and I don't want Madame to be sick again." ”
Zhang Qiurong couldn't bear it anymore, clasped her hands tightly, and her heart was about to jump out with excitement, she exclaimed: "What is the truth, you kid tell it quickly." ”
Xiao Liu responded truthfully: "In my mother's clothes, I found a letter, which wrote about her delivery for his wife, to the effect that it was like this...... Back then, Miss Ling'er cried a few times after she was born, and Mrs. fainted temporarily because of weakness, and my mother was very happy, because Miss Ling'er was lively and lovely, and her eyebrows and eyes looked like Mrs. ”
Zhang Qiurong listened quietly, without blinking her eyes, the country woman changed her words and continued: "But suddenly, a gust of wind blew, and my mother fainted, and when she woke up again, Miss Ling'er had lost her breathing, and her body became stiff, no matter how she patted or called, it was useless......
At this time, Zhang Qiurong was already teary-eyed, and said slowly: "This scene has appeared thousands of times in my dreams, this is the first time I saw it after I woke up from a coma, and I will never forget this scene." ”
Xiao Liu trembled and fell to the ground, and bowed: "On the same day, my mother was sent home, I was only ten years old that year, and when my mother came home, she told me about my wife's intercession for her, and also explained other things to me. I didn't understand why my mother did this, and it wasn't until after my mother's death that I happened to see a letter she had left behind, and I didn't understand ......."
Zhang Qiurong was already immersed in the painful past and couldn't extricate himself, Xiao Liu continued: "My mother wrote in the letter that after she returned home, she calmed down and thought about it, and remembered that Miss Ling'er had a bright red, oval birthmark in the crook of her left arm, and the dead baby's arm was smooth and there was no birthmark at all, so my mother was sure that the dead baby was not Madame's child. ”
After listening to Xiao Liu, Zhang Qiurong couldn't cry anymore, patted his forehead and cried: "It's all my mother's incompetence, I also remembered that my Ling'er has a birthmark, but I just can't remember where her birthmark is, it turned out to be on her left arm...... Wuji, Wuji, do you remember? When we were at the inn, we met a woman named Feng Qianqian, and she had such a birthmark on her arm. ”
"Wuji remembers, Wuji remembers!" Zhong Wuji shouted, he patted Zhang Qiurong's back and helped her breathe, afraid that she would faint with excitement. Zhong Wuji said: "Feng Qianqian's drunkenness in the inn, and Madame's scrubbing for Feng Qianqian, Wuji remembers. ”
Xiao Liu's eyes were rosy, and he recalled: "The next day, a fierce woman suddenly broke into my house, and my mother had a premonition that there would be a disaster the night before, and was about to take me away. In desperation, my mother hid me in a water tank, and I witnessed the murder of my mother by the fierce woman. When my mother was dying, she begged her to leave her name, and the fierce woman laughed and called herself a life-seeking Yama, and she plunged a jade flute into my mother's chest. ”
Zhang Qiurong was already kneeling in front of the room, bowing to Xiao Liu, and shouting desolately: "Grandma Liu, you died so unjustly, you are guilty of crimes, I have harmed you, I have harmed you, you should not have this disaster." ”
