Chapter 261 It Really Happened

"Erlang, tell mother if something happened?" Old Mrs. Su called Su Laoer.

Now the old lady has her own room, which is the first room on the right side of the main hall. The rooms of Su Ying and her two sisters are right next to each other. When she wants water, she just calls and someone will bring it to her.

"Mother!" Su Lao Er lowered his head and said slowly, "Jiu Niang and He'er are gone!"

"What? Gone? Both mother and daughter are gone?" The old lady stood up suddenly. "Who said that? Mother and daughter were so resilient, how could they be gone?"

The old lady couldn't control her annoyance. She was ignorant and fearless, didn't know the difference between important and unimportant things, had no sense of reverence, was completely stupid, and never stopped doing it.

In order not to burden the family, I had to resort to this last resort.

When he was sent there, he was worried that he would bring disaster to the Feng family, but he didn't expect that he would lose his life.

People can be unscrupulous only in front of those who care about them, but in front of those who don't care about them, they are as worthless as grass.

"The bodies have been retrieved and buried in the village cemetery." Su Laoer sighed.

"Buried in the village cemetery? What do you and the Yang family say? Why not buried in the Feng family's cemetery?" the old lady asked, feeling that there was something wrong.

It’s not that she’s afraid of the Yang family, but a woman must obey her husband after marriage. She’s already a member of the Feng family, and bringing him back to be buried in the village, wouldn’t that be offensive to the Yang family?

"That Feng guy is not a human, he's worse than a beast! He bullied Cheng Er, and when pregnant Jiu Niang went to rescue her, he pushed her down, causing her to bleed profusely, and then buried her alive before she even breathed a single breath! That beast actually, actually used He Er to open the secret door..."

Every time Su Laoer mentioned it, it was as if he was being tortured to death.

Jiuniang and He'er were right to scold him. He was a coward who could not discipline or protect his wife and daughter, which led to their fate.

The old lady stood there for a long while, then sighed deeply, "What a sin, what a sin! If I had been more content, this wouldn't have happened!"

"After the death of these two, Shi Yan and Chen Yan must be filled with resentment! The two children are still thinking about making a name for themselves and taking Jiu Niang to take care of them!"

The old lady felt upset. What was going on? Death was a mess, and it left the family with no peace and tranquility.

"Mother, this matter should not be publicized for the time being. My wife is pregnant and I am afraid of disturbing her.

Shi Yan and Chen Yan are also at a critical stage. There are many vacancies in Tong County. Lord Lin appreciates them and they have got the opportunity. They can't be distracted. Let's talk about it later! If they really want to resent it, then let them resent it!" Su Lao Er said after thinking.

"Now, this is the only way! Don't rush to write to your hometown in Xingyang. Wait until your wife gives birth and then make plans. There's nothing for your mother to worry about!

"A'niang is old now, it doesn't matter whether we make enemies or not. Just tell Shi Yan and Chen Yan that it was my intention!" The old lady gritted her teeth and said.

Seeing that the second house's life was getting better and the grandson had a way out, Qin Jiuniang and her daughter suddenly received bad news. What should they do if they don't suppress it?

Let Shi Yan and Chen Yan complain all they want! A man buried up to his neck in the earth can still protect his son from disaster, so he is not a useless waste.

If I had held on a little longer and not given in, this marriage would not have been possible. How could it have ended like this?

Alas, there are some things that you really shouldn’t be soft-hearted about!

In the morning, Su Ying steamed rice cakes with a layer of rouge red in the middle, and the air was filled with sweet fragrance.

Two baskets were steamed, one of which was cut into small pieces with twine, put into a large basket, and given to Atang.

Atang skipped and jumped into the woods.

After breakfast, I started a new busy life.

The men in the village went to Jinfengzhai to continue building the road, leaving ten people to work at the vermicelli factory.

Su Laoer discussed with Yang Dalang and Yang Erlang.

The rocks have been blasted away, the route has been planned, and Su Laoer can get started.

The rest of the route was led and managed by Yang Dalang, while Su Laoer, Yang Erlang and Wang Sanlang took a few people to Qingshi Mountain to trial-produce the legendary cement.

Su Laoer held his breath and was determined to make a name for himself.

There are only a few women left in the Su family now. Su Ying went to the edge of the field to pick some mulberry leaves and carried them back to the silkworm room. The silkworms were fat and long, but slightly thinner than her fingers.

The bodies of many silkworms began to become translucent and yellow, and the color of their feet did not change, bright red, bright yellow, indigo and purple.

It hardly ate and just crawled around in the winnowing basket.

Su Ying put the silkworms on the straw mountain. The silkworms crawled around, found the most suitable position for themselves, and then began to spin silk.

Du, Wei and Su Lu each guarded a silkworm room, quietly observing the silkworms in the winnowing basket. They picked up the shiny and yellow silkworms and put them on the straw hill.

"Is it time to spin silk?" Gao pushed the door open and came in.

Following behind were the old lady, Yang Chunhua, Xiaotao, and Atang.

Seeing that Su Ying and the others had not returned for a long time, they guessed that Caner was going up the mountain. They couldn't contain their excitement and came to watch.

"Well, come in and take a look!" Su Ying waved to everyone.

Everyone held their breath and tiptoed over.

One third of the straw was missing from the winnowing basket. Some of the straw had already been tied into a frame and started to shake its head back and forth to spin silk, while some were still crawling around looking for a position.

The crystal clear silk has a red luster.

"Ah! It really worked!" Yang Chunhua exclaimed, and the red silk she spit out had different shades of red.

"It's so beautiful!" Xiao Tao looked at the beautiful red color with sparkling eyes.

Atang is not much better. Both little guys like bright and shiny things.

"Let's go and see something else!" Xiaotao pulled Atang and ran away.

The other three rooms have the same color scheme, with some shades of the same color.

Everyone was reluctant to leave, it was so interesting to watch.

"Oh, I was wondering why there was no one here. Everyone is here!" Mrs. Hu came in.

When we arrived at Su's house, it was quiet. It was already lunchtime and no one was there.

"Madam is here!" Su Ying said with a smile, "Madam, can you tell fortunes? I happened to be going up the mountain today, so you caught up with me!"

"Let me take a look!" Mrs. Hu looked at the thin red cocoon on the straw. The silkworm inside was almost wrapping itself up.

"Huh? It still hasn't changed color?" Mrs. Hu was surprised. "I thought it would turn completely red before spinning."

"That's not important. Look at the silkworm's feet. The color of the silkworm's feet determines the color of the silk it produces." Su Ying was not sure before, but now she is sure.

Mrs. Hu looked at the other colors one by one and said, "Oh, this is amazing! Who would believe it if they didn't see it with their own eyes?"

We looked at it for a long time, and the more we looked, the happier we became. We were reluctant to leave, and everyone felt a sense of accomplishment.

"Gurgle..." Yang Chunhua's stomach growled first, and she blushed with embarrassment.

"Oh, it's past noon!" Gao came back to her senses.

When the old man returned home, he found no one there and realized that he was at the Su family. Fortunately, his two daughters-in-law were at home, so the old man would not starve.

"Ah? It's past noon?" Everyone then realized that it was already past morning.

In fact, we should have realized that it was getting late when we saw Mrs. Hu, but everyone was immersed in excitement and completely forgot about the time.

"Hurry! Second Aunt, go back and eat!" Su Ying urged.

The group reluctantly left the silkworm room and returned to the kitchen, where the stove and pots were cold and empty.

I was so focused on the silkworms spinning silk that I had no time to cook.

There was still half a basket of rice cakes from the morning, so they lit a fire to steam them and cooked a pot of porridge, which everyone had just for a quick meal.
