Chapter 102 Suifeng
When the Shaohua sisters learned that Li Xunzhuo was arrested and Ling fainted, the Shaohua sisters immediately rushed to Xiyuan. As soon as they entered the room and saw that Ling was still sleeping, they were shocked and wanted to kneel down and cry. Cui's mother hurriedly pulled her and said that the doctor had seen it and it was okay. She was just too scared and had not woken up, which made them calm down a little.
Shaohua inquired about Cui's mother's reasons, and Cui's mother wanted to cry without saying anything, "I don't know what happened. Fortunately, someone came to report that the master was arrested. It is said that the official silver was hidden and she was going to be be beheaded. The lady couldn't stand it and fainted.
"What official silver?" Shaohua was shocked. Things related to official silver are not a joke. If it is serious, they will behead and raid the house, and if it is light, they will be sent to prison. How can Dad have anything to do with Guanyin?
Is it known to the imperial court about the transportation to northern Sichuan?
But it's not right. It's a legitimate business, and it solves General Dingxi's urgent need, and it's still a matter of meritorious service. If it weren't for this matter, what else could have anything to do with official silver?
Mother Cui pulled out her handkerchief, tweaked the corners of her eyes, and said sadly, "I don't know. I only heard that even the Suifeng Tower has been sealed."
It's Suifeng Tower again! Shaohua felt that the feng shui in this place must be incompatible with Li Xunzhuo. He almost fell in last time, and now he rushed up directly.
Before Ling woke up, Cui's mother asked and didn't know. Wan Hua was at a loss like her. The more Shaohua thought about it, the more worried he became. He turned to Wanhua and said, "The third sister is here to take care of his mother. I'll go to Taiheyuan to ask my grandfather." Li Gelouo couldn't know that such a big thing happened. Presumably, Li Liangxun and others would also go to Taihe Garden as soon as they had news.
"No, you keep it. I'll go." Wanhua immediately stood up and came to block Shaohua's way. "I'm my sister. If you want to ask, I have to ask. You are here to take care of your mother."
"Why don't I go with you?" Shaohua can't sit.
"No, your foot is just right. You can't run around." Wanhua shook his head resolutely.
Just when the two sisters couldn't argue, a clear voice broke their debate, "Let me go." Both of them were stunned and turned their heads at the same time. They saw Simo's stiff face and tall and straight figure break into their eyes, which stunned them. He stepped over and said to them seriously, "Don't argue with the two sisters, let me find my grandfather." Dad is not here. I'm the only man in this room. I should go."
After saying that, he didn't wait for them to recover. He bowed to the two of them and left.
"Halang has grown up, just like the second master."
Looking at Si Mo's back, Shao Hua was slightly shocked. Hearing Cui's mother's sigh, she suddenly realized. In her memory, Si Mo has always been a clever and quiet boy. After inviting Ling on time every day, she went to school to study. There is never a need for Ling to worry. Even Mr. Liu sighed that Simo was as quiet as a little lady. Shaohua had no impression of this unusual brother, but he just listened to him and had a firm and serious expression. He couldn't help sighing that Smo was much more mature than she thought.
For a long time, Ling woke up and saw her two daughters guarding by her, and tears immediately overflowed. Wan Hua persuaded for a long time and knew that Simo had gone to Taihe Garden and other news before Ling settled down. However, Simo hasn't come back for a long time, and the mother and daughter can't sit still.
Su also came over with Jinhua. As soon as he entered the door, he fell at the head of Ling's bed and cried loudly: "Madam, what's wrong with you? Why did you get arrested? Isn't it? Was it discovered that he went to North Sichuan a year ago? I said, don't let him go. He refused. It's good now. If the master has a long and short time, what can our mother and daughter do!" Su's crying was very rhythmic, and he didn't even have to stop talking. He cried like singing.
"Shut up!" Shaohua listened and shouted at Su, "Dad hasn't heard from you yet. Why are you crying here? If you are so unlucky, let people close your mouth."
Shaohua's voice was not small and full of confidence, which made all Su's tears roar. She sat on the ground and looked at Shaohua, secretly looked at Ling's black expression, and immediately lowered her head aggrievedly to wipe her tears.
If something really happened to Li Xunzhuo, the women in this room were worried. Su cried as if only she was worried. Ling was tired and upset and didn't have the strength to speak. Wanhua was busy giving Ling a good time, only staring at Su with hatred. Shaohua's roared and understood their hatred, but Su calmed down and his heart sank again.
Simo finally came back. Shaohua caught him and asked him. He only shook his head in disappointment: "Grandpa said that the matter is not clear, and it will be known after waiting for others to investigate. However, I have entrusted someone to see my father, and the rest can only wait. Si Mo guarded Li Ge's side. Both grandparents and grandsons did not say anything and felt as heavy. However, whenever someone passed by the door, they would look up and look out at each other, and then silently withdrew their eyes. Looking at the nose and the heart, one hand keeps turning two jade balls, and one palm is gently touching the rhythm on his thigh.
This thing came suddenly, and no one expected to find Guan Yin in Suifeng Building. If you hold it down first and find out that it's okay to report it, I don't know who the news goes fast and goes straight to the sky. The emperor was worried about the failure of the official silver. Now he heard that the official silver was hidden under his eyes. How could he sit still? Without saying anything, he beat everyone into prison, even the two groups of people who made trouble were no exception.
While Wanhua and Cui's mother were taking care of Ling, Shaohua sneaked to Xuyuan. She couldn't go to Taiheyuan, at least she had to find an easy-to-know person to ask questions. How can she stand letting her guard Ling's anxiety?
"Five Lady, why are you here? Come in quickly." Hongling guarded the door and saw Shaohua trotting all the way. She was so anxious that she came forward to help her, "Slow down, you will hurt your foot."
"Where's your sister-in-law?" Shaohua grabbed Hongling's clothes and asked nervously.
"It's in the house." Hongling just sent Xu Qing's daughter-in-law away. Before she turned around, she saw Shaohua running. Carefully helped her into the room. Xin Zixuan heard the sound and was shocked to see that Shaohua had been found. You really recovered from the scar and forgot the pain. As soon as you could walk a few steps, you came so far. Don't you want this leg?
"Sister-in-law, I'm fine. My legs are not tight. I want to ask if the eldest brother has come back." As soon as Shaohua sat down, the stool was not warm, so he asked anxiously. Taoyuan is farther than Xuyuan, and at least Xuyuan is close to the gate. He thought that Xuyuan should be the first if there is news, so Shaohua came to find Xin Zixuan.
Xin Zixuan shook her head and asked Hongling to pour a glass of water for Shaohua. She frowned and pushed it away without looking at it. Xin Zixuan put the water in her hand and said, "Don't worry. Your uncle, eldest brother and second brother have gone out to find someone. Your father will be safe."
In fact, Shaohua also knows that it is useless to be anxious, but now she doesn't know what to do except worry.
As a result, I didn't expect Li Sijin to come back.
"Big brother, do you have any news about my father? Can you release it? What the hell is going on? Shaohua suddenly got up, walked over, and watched Li Sijin ask three questions in a row. Xin Zixuan quickly pulled her sleeves to calm her down. Shaohua looked at Li Sijin with firm eyes.
After Smo only came back and reported a "bad news is good news", he ran back to Taihe Garden to guard. He didn't ask what happened.
In fact, Li Sijin also came home with an urgent leave soon after he learned the news. Suddenly, Shaohua asked several questions, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment. After seeing Xin Zixuan calm Shaohua down, he said, "On the way back, I heard someone say that it was the action of the Marquis of Anqing and the Duke of Lv. They fought in the Suifeng Building and broke a lot of things in the store. I accidentally smashed several wine urn, and found that the wine urn was full of silver, and many people rushed forward to grab it. Then a large number of officers and soldiers came to arrest these trouble-rioters, and then they knew that the silver was official silver.
Li Sijin's words shocked both of her sister-in-law. Shaohua quickly reacted, "Then how did you know that this official bank was last year's disaster bank!"
Li Sijin looked at Shaohua and nodded, "Someone found many sealed boxes in the backyard firewood room. Only one box was full, and the rest were empty." The evidence was conclusive, and the officers and soldiers were happy to arrest them to ask for credit.
"But what does it have to do with my father!" Shaohua knew that this Suifeng Building was the private property of the second room, and the other two rooms were unknown.
"Naturally someone will snitch." Li Sijin didn't care about the private property of the second house, but just despised the person who betrayed his owner.
"This is definitely a planting! My father would never do such a thing!" After hearing this, Shaohua trembling with anger and pounded the table several times.
The advantages of the three brothers of the Li family are hard to say, but they are well known for their filial piety to their parents. With such a clean and honest parent like Li Ge, Li Xunzhuo dared not do such a sinful thing even if he borrowed courage from heaven.
"We know the character of the second uncle. However, I don't know who framed it. Last year, the incident of the disaster relief official's flight has caused a lot of noise all over Beijing. Among them, the water is already deep and dark, and once it is implicated, it is difficult to get out. What worries Li Sijin is that the deeds of this stolen goods are too obvious, and it must be deliberately designed by someone. I'm afraid it's not easy to find out behind the scenes. If someone deliberately framed it, I'm afraid this black hand is not easy to break it off.
"Can't there be anything about it?" Shaohua was stunned.
Li Sijin only squeezed his lips and did not answer. Xin Zixuan looked at Shaohua with a helpless face and poured her into her arms with pain and gently patted her to comfort her. Shaohua suddenly trembled like an electric shock, "Big brother, who called these officers and soldiers? What are they doing here? If it's persuasion, why do so many people appear? Suifenglou has been sealed up once. If the official silver is really hidden, why didn't they find out last time? Also, how did the people of Anqing Marquis's Mansion and Lv Guogong Mansion go to Suifeng Tower to quarrel?
Li Sijin took a deep breath and looked at Shaohua's serious face, raising these questions completely unreasonably. He sorted out the problems in his mind and seemed to have thought of a decision. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said to Shaohua, "If you and Hachiro can change, our family may not be far away."
Shaohua blinked and didn't understand Li Sijin's words. Seeing that his expression was obviously relaxed, he said to Xin Zixuan and turned out again.
