Being Beaten
Song Huilan has always been worried about Ling Feng, and she doesn't know whether he succeeded or not.
Qingzhu hurried in from outside, "Madam, there's a shouting outside to catch a thief."
"What?" Song Huilan's face changed. Maybe what Ling Feng did was discovered, "Go and see what's going on."
Song Huilan was extremely worried. If this matter was discovered and spread, the reputation of their mother and son would not be preserved.
Soon Qingzhu came back, "Madam, everything is fine now. It was said that a cat stole a lot of things. It was dark at night and I didn't see it, so I thought it was a thief."
"So that's it." Song Huilan breathed a sigh of relief, as long as Ling Feng wasn't discovered, "Is Feng'er back?"
"Not yet, Madam." Qingzhu said, "But the woman who arranged the night watch said that two people went out carrying sacks, but the young master was not seen."
"What about Feng'er? He didn't go out with us. Where did he go?" Song Huilan asked.
"I don't know. The young master must have gone back to rest." Qingzhu said. "Or maybe he was waiting outside the mansion and did not follow him into the mansion."
Song Huilan sat down and felt a little relieved, "This is possible. This child Feng'er really worries me."
"Madam, don't worry, the young master has always been more prudent in his work. This matter will definitely be accomplished." Qingzhu poured a cup of tea and offered it to Song Huilan.
Song Huilan waved her hand. She was not in the mood to drink tea now, "Let people keep an eye on me. If Feng'er comes back, let him come to my place."
"Yes, madam." Qingzhu said, "It's getting late, you'd better rest early."
The next morning, during breakfast, Fang Miaoran used the incident of the thief last night to ridicule Song Huilan and regain the right to keep vigil.
"That's just those women who took a wrong look. It was cold at night, and those women didn't mean it. This incident was just a false alarm, and a small punishment or a big warning will be over." Song Huilan said.
Fang Miaoran said, "This is no small matter. If you indulge once, you will fail again and again. This vigil is not a joke."
"It was noisy early in the morning, and it's getting more and more restless." Ling Yong said, it was quieter when he first returned home, and the two ladies were also gentle and carefree, but now it's getting more and more noisy.
After Ling Yong spoke, Song Huilan and Fang Miaoran shut their mouths.
But at this time, the housekeeper hurried over and said, "Master, something serious has happened. The third young master, he...he..."
"What's wrong with him?" Song Huilan suddenly stood up, a bad premonition spreading in her heart.
"The third young master was beaten half to death and was thrown at the back door." The housekeeper was sweating on his head.
"Master" Song Huilan almost fainted, but was supported by Qingzhu.
"The third young master also has a written receipt on his person." The housekeeper handed the written note to Ling Yong.
"Who dares to make such nonsense?" Ling Yong said and took the note. After reading it, his expression changed, "Feng'er actually owes the gambling house ten thousand taels of silver!"
Song Huilan's face turned pale and she insisted, "It's absolutely impossible. Someone must have deliberately framed her. How could Feng'er do such a thing? Sir, you must find out. Someone must have framed her."
"Who dares to frame the young master of the General's Mansion?" Fang Miaoran took the opportunity to say, "There must be a reason for it."
"Stop talking, let's go see how Feng'er is doing." Ling Yong put away the note. This matter still needs to be found out clearly. If Feng'er is wronged, he will never spare these casino people.
