Wen Liang didn't understand what she said. In fact, she heard every word clearly, but when those four words were connected together, he didn't understand what they meant.
He stared at her blankly, frowned, leaned forward again, then stood up straight again, as if he was dissatisfied and said: "How long have you been here in the house? Why can't you even speak clearly?"
I really don’t know how mother-in-law trains the maids in her yard! How unbecoming it is to be so flustered!"
After saying that, he stopped looking at the maid and walked out.
But he was not the only one to hear what the maid said. Yuan Xueqing, who had just finished breakfast, and Qiao Yuning, who had half-combed her hair, both ran out.
He heard the two women behind him asking the maid, "What? Please tell me more clearly, what happened to my wife? Why is she gone?"
The maid lost her mind after being scolded by him. Now she was being questioned by her grandma and aunt, and then she came to her senses and cried out: "Yesterday, the master and the wife had a big fight in our yard, and then the wife didn't
They asked us to go in and wait, oh yes, Mother Sun went in and said a few words to my wife.
Later, the wife didn't ask us to go in to serve her until dinner time. We were all worried and went in by ourselves, but the wife was already asleep in bed and kicked us out, not allowing any of us to disturb her again.
We just thought it was because we felt uncomfortable after arguing with the master, so we really didn’t dare to go. Until this morning, more than half an hour had passed since my wife got up, and there was still no movement, so we were a little worried.
…”
As she spoke, her face changed as if she thought of something terrible.
In fact, when it comes to this, everyone else has guessed the general content.
The maid endured the trembling and continued, "Unexpectedly, when we entered, there was no sound at all. Only when we opened the curtain did we see that the wife had passed away, with blood on the corners of her nose and mouth, and her lips were also dark purple.
, then I realized... my wife committed suicide last night."
Yuan Xueqing couldn't help but tremble a little. She took a deep breath to calm herself down.
If she and Mrs. Wen had any feelings, it would be false. She did not like Mrs. Wen as her mother-in-law, and this mother-in-law was not very kind to her.
But after all, she is the only biological daughter-in-law. Now that her mother-in-law has passed away, she has to take care of everything.
Unexpectedly, I encountered that the Wen family had just separated. The third bedroom was planning to move out today, and the second bedroom was almost ready.
If such news spreads, no, it doesn't even need to spread. Relatives and friends will come to express their condolences, and then everything will be known. From now on, the Wen family will really become a joke among everyone.
Yuan Xueqing couldn't help but feel resentment in her heart. She deeply felt that her decision was too hasty and she married her without thinking clearly. This was clearly a fire pit.
What good prospects can there be in the future?
But this was no longer something that needed to be thought about now. She turned back to the house almost immediately, removed all the jewelry on her head and body, then changed into simple and plain clothes, grabbed Liu'er's hand and went to the main courtyard.
Already.
When she arrived, people from other rooms had arrived. Yuan Xueqing's eyes wandered around everyone, but she didn't find Wen Qiongyu's figure.
Looking carefully, Qiao Yuyan and Wen Tingyuan were not here either.
Liufang was quicker than anyone else.
She was the eldest daughter-in-law. As soon as she arrived, the others moved out of the way. When they reached the door of the house, they heard Wen Liang's whimpering.
She took out the handkerchief, then pressed it to the corners of her eyes, and wiped it hard twice. Her eyelids immediately turned red, and then she walked in sobbing.
"Mom! Why can't you think about it anymore?"
When she raised her voice, it was as if she had torn away the fig leaf in the courtyard, and the crowd's voices began to buzz.
The maids and women in Mrs. Wen's yard also began to cry at the top of their lungs, and even sang some lyrics.
Mrs. Chen was a step behind, not because she was busy with other things. Now she still had the account books in her hands, and the separation of the family really depended on her, so she fell into a deeper sleep, and it was natural for the people in the main courtyard to report the news.
Then go to her place.
When she came, she was even more sad than Yuan Xueqing, and she started crying before she even entered the yard.
Then everyone in the second and third bedrooms also joined in. After all, he was already dead. Even if he didn't deal with it during his lifetime, now that the deceased is the most important, what else is there to worry about?
Now that we have entered the same family, there is still some sense of affection, and it is impossible to explain without crying.
As a result, the entire main courtyard became lively.
After crying for a while, Ms. Chen felt her throat was a little smokey, and then she looked towards the others with red eyes, "Who served you last night? My wife left because she was obviously wronged. I don't think there is anyone else."
Poisoning, we can't let this matter go away, let's go to the Yamen of Jingzhao Mansion and invite Wu Zuo and the Grand Master to come."
Wen Shouyi went out early in the morning to run an errand, but was called back on the way. He heard what Chen said when he got home, and quickly said: "No!"
Except for a few people, everyone looked at him.
Mrs. Chen didn't know why her husband objected, and naturally she wouldn't refute her husband's face in public, so she quickly asked: "Why is this?"
"My father is still here, so of course I have to ask his opinion on my wife's matters. How can you make your own decisions?"
As soon as he said this, Mrs. Chen suddenly remembered that she had forgotten about Wen Qiong, so she quickly sent someone away, but Wen Shouyi stopped her directly.
First he kowtowed to Mrs. Wen a few times, and then went out to the study by himself.
Mrs. Chen no longer cared about this matter and immediately got up to find the housekeeper. In any case, Mrs. Wen passed away, and the house naturally had to be organized.
The mourning clothes for the top and bottom should also be made quickly.
As for the cause of Mrs. Wen's death, that was not something she should be concerned about. She didn't even have time to be happy about it.
Qiao Yuyan hesitated in the room for a long time, counting the time, and felt that almost everyone else had gone, so she and Wen Tingyuan went out to the main courtyard.
She never thought that Mrs. Wen would leave so suddenly.
Even if she passed away in her previous life, this person has always been full of energy and glowing. In this life...
It's really quite different from the previous life.
If there was anyone she hated the most in her previous life, the top three were naturally Qiao Yuning, Wen Liang and Aunt Pei, but Mrs. Wen was also close behind.
She didn't feel very happy when such a person left, she was just relieved.
When the couple arrived, there was no special reaction because everyone was waiting for the other person.
