"Go and kneel in the ancestral hall. You can't come out without my permission." Mrs. Xu had a sullen face and hugged her daughter tightly.
Lu Yuanxiao lowered his head and let out a dejected sigh.
Then he went to kneel in the ancestral hall silently.
Dengzhi's legs and feet were so frightened that he finally came back to his senses.
[Mom, don't blame me, I really want to go out...]
Oh, kiss on Xu's face.
Mrs. Xu glanced at her daughter who was smiling heartlessly: "You are the happiest today. You scared my mother to death." Just thinking about it made her terrified.
"The young master also likes his sister, madam..." Dengzhi wanted to plead with Lu Yuanxiao.
Normally, Lu Yuanxiao was sweet-tongued and never put on airs as a young master. Several maids felt very sorry for him.
Xu gave her an angry look: "Okay, let's kneel down until after dinner."
Dengzhi immediately ordered to go down happily, and dinner will be served half an hour earlier today.
"Madam, people are always in high spirits during happy events." Dengzhi couldn't help but snicker. If madam hadn't been in such a good mood today, the young master would probably have his **** exploded.
Xu pursed her lips and smiled softly.
Early this morning, all the things that were lost in her private treasury were recovered, and a large amount of compensation was collected.
She has at least made up for her efforts in being the wrongdoer over the years in terms of money.
House's Mansion may be nothing more than an empty shell.
"Well, the old lady had dark circles under her eyes early in the morning. She said she was going to burn incense."
"I'm afraid I'm looking over there." Dengzhi was unconvinced.
"Madam, how about…"
"Let's make peace?" Dengzhi thought about it countless times and finally said this.
Lu Chaochao suddenly jumped up in his arms [Heli, Heli, Heli! ]
[Change to a new father, change to a new father! ]
"You see, the young lady is enjoying herself secretly." Dengzhi really didn't want to let his wife suffer any more.
Just thinking about living in a scam for the past seventeen years, she felt aggrieved for her wife.
Xu looked slightly startled.
"Dengzhi, I have three sons and one daughter. Since ancient times, when a woman goes home with her husband, she does not take any children with her." Unless the other party voluntarily gives up.
Now, Lu Yuanze's chips are not enough.
It was not enough for him to abandon several children.
Dengzhi saw that she didn't speak, so he ordered someone to serve dinner.
In the evening, the old lady and Lu Yuanze returned to the Hou Mansion. They both looked tired and had a faint anger in their eyes.
Hsu disrupted all their plans.
"That wife of yours is so vicious, she actually wants to destroy Jinghuai!"
"Jinghuai is the seed of my house and the hope of the house! Have you seen the way Jinghuai endures loneliness today? It makes me feel bad." The old lady held the handkerchief and cried.
Lin Yan was her confidant and was launched to be guilty. This time, she was hurting her bones.
"She is also a mother, why is she so cruel?"
"Just because the child she gave birth to is unsatisfactory, is she going to destroy other people's children?" The old lady's crutch hit the ground with a thud.
Lu Yuanze frowned.
"Mom, be careful! They are not evil, they are also my children!" Lu Yuanze looked hesitant.
The old lady slammed her cane on his head.
He covered his head in pain, and traces of blood spilled from his palms.
"Confused!"
"If it were an inkstone from back then, that would be fine. Now, he is a cripple! He is a **** who eats, drinks, poops, and needs to be taken care of!"
"Living will only bring shame to my prince's house!"
"How smart is Jing Huai? He is famous in the capital! Not to mention Jing Yao, getting a prophecy from the abbot is extremely valuable! And what about Jiao Jiao? I have followed you without any name or status, and I have been wronged for seventeen years!"
"That poisonous woman Xu Shiyun!" The old lady looked resentful. This time, Jinghuai's reputation was almost ruined and everything was lost.
"Her natal family is very powerful. I originally planned to raise Jingyao under her name if her child dies early. Put it in her name. Once I have feelings, I won't be defensive." To the Xu family, Whatever Xu Shiyun does, there is a chance.
In the future, Jingyao will gain a good reputation if he kills his relatives out of righteousness!
pity…
"If Jingyao is around, we can relieve the pain of missing each other. A good granddaughter must be raised outside and never see the light of day."
Lu Yuanze's eyes moved slightly, but he didn't say anything.
It was getting dark, and the servants in the mansion closed the doors and windows tightly and checked whether the doors and windows were affixed with door gods.
Zi Shi…
Permits of white mist appeared on the horizon, covering everything.
In the white mist, terrifying creatures of various shapes, with teeth and claws showing, loomed.
There are headless people who are aimlessly looking for their heads everywhere. There are broken arms and limbs, **** mouths, and all kinds of strange and terrifying existences.
They are all floating in the sky.
There were faint sharp sounds in my ears.
Mrs. Xu was wearing clothes. She climbed up the branch and didn't even dare to light the oil lamp. She said in the moonlight: "Madam, don't worry, there are door gods posted everywhere. There is even black dog blood sprinkled at the foot of the wall. It's completely intact."
Xu glanced at the sleeping An Ran and kicked away the brocade quilt, revealing Lu Chaochao's snow-white belly.
Xu pulled up Chaochao's clothes to cover her belly.
"Today, I'm afraid it's best to just sleep in the morning."
"Can you go out for the Lantern Festival? Has he eaten?" Mrs. Xu looked a little embarrassed.
Jue Xia chuckled and lowered his voice: "Don't worry, Brother Yuanxiao has gone back to rest long ago. Before going out, I sent someone to deliver snacks."
"It's time to go on a parade."
The sound of wind whistling outside the door was faintly mixed with the howling of ghosts and wolves, which made people's scalp numb.
"Every July and a half, people are panicked, hey." Dengzhi sighed.
"Tonight seems to be more terrifying than in previous years. This fog makes it so dark that I can't even see my fingers. It's completely white and I can't see anything." In previous years, as long as the door was closed, one could still move around in the courtyard.
But this year, white mist actually entered the house.
White mist enters the house, and it seems that many inexplicable things appear in the house.
"Have all the servants gone into the house to take shelter?" Mrs. Xu asked.
It is clearly midsummer, but now I feel a bone-crushing cold. I touched my arms and got goosebumps all over my body.
"I will order them down in the afternoon and ask them to get back to the house. There is no one in the courtyard at this time."
"I'm afraid it won't get better until dawn."
"My eyelids are twitching so much, I don't know what's going on with Yuanxiao?" This is Lu Yuanxiao's first time participating in a street parade.
Beizhao has regulations that when scholars reach the age of eight, they can participate in street parades to exorcise evil spirits.
Everything is voluntary.
"Why can't I hear the sound of reading for so long?" In previous years, the deafening sound of reading could be heard on this street. It can always dispel the terrible darkness and bring a glimmer of light.
Dengzhi's eyebrows were also a little anxious.
Today is different from previous years.
"It's okay, there are eminent monks here to guard the place, so everything will be fine." She whispered, and the two maids Yingxue and Juexia also hugged each other and trembled.
Sudden…
There was a sharp creaking sound in my ears.
The sting causes pain in the eardrum.
Several people looked towards the door suddenly.
I saw the door creaking, and there seemed to be something outside the door, trying to squeeze in.
