Chapter 260 is about to be revealed
Madam Zheng was cooking vermicelli in the vermicelli factory, absent-mindedly, and occasionally listening to the noise outside.
The son and daughter went out to help with the accounts. After Mrs. Zheng's joy, she became worried.
These days, I worry about my son, then my daughter, feel regretful, and then feel proud.
My heart is really tormented.
Not only Madam Zheng, but everyone else whose daughters went out was worried.
It's easier to worry about a boy going out with his husband, but it's more worrying about a girl going out. Fortunately, someone from each family came to help.
Otherwise, these mothers will be even more worried.
As she was lost in thought, Madam Zheng suddenly heard the faint sound of horse hooves. She quickly dropped the shovel in her hand and ran out, "Qingyun is back!"
When the other women heard this, they dropped their work and ran out.
When I ran to the village entrance, I saw several ox carts slowly returning on the village road, with Su Ying's horse in the front.
"She's back!" Madam Zheng and other women hurried forward, surrounded the ox cart, and checked on their daughter.
Everyone was in high spirits, lively and confident, "Ah Niang!"
"Is everything going well?" The mother looked her daughter up and down. Apart from being a little darker, there was no other change.
"It went smoothly, mother. We helped the county government's household department a lot and completed the tax collection ten days earlier than in previous years!" The girls chattered, their faces full of excitement and happiness.
"Hey, where is your fourth uncle?" Madam Zheng noticed that a few people were missing.
"They have something to do and will be back later!" Xie Qingyun said, secretly glancing at Su Ying.
"Okay, we're home now. Let's go home with your mother!" Su Ying smiled and took her sisters home.
"Are you back? Where's your second uncle?" Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wei had just come out of the silkworm room.
"I'm behind, I'll be back soon!" Su Ying jumped off the horse.
"What's the matter? Are you in trouble?" Mrs. Du noticed that the faces of several people did not look very happy, and they did not have the excitement that they should have after returning from a long journey.
"I can't say!" Su Ying said indifferently.
"What happened?" Mrs. Du's heart was pounding.
"Aunt Qin and Ah He are dead!" Su Ying said.
In order to distinguish between the two Second Aunts, and not to bring bad luck to Yang Chunhua, she called her Second Aunt Qin.
I can't describe how I feel. I really hate both of them, but I still feel sad that they've died.
He was able to lead so many people to a good life, but why couldn't he lead these two? After leaving the Su family for only half a year, the two...
"Dead? How could that be..." Wei exclaimed and quickly covered her mouth.
He was afraid of disturbing the old lady, and even more afraid of disturbing Yang Chunhua who was pregnant. He was even more worried about how to give an explanation to the three brothers Shi Yan, Chen Yan and Zhao Yan?
"How could this be? Could it be that the hunter is really unlucky in marriage?" asked Mrs. Du.
"No, that hunter had evil intentions and raped Ah He. Second Aunt Qin, who was pregnant, tried to save Ah He but was thrown down by the hunter. She bled profusely and was buried before she died. Ah He then burned herself to death in the sea of fire."
Su Ying didn't want to reveal too much about Su He's death, she just wanted to give her some dignity.
"Oh my God! How could this happen..." Mrs. Du and Mrs. Wei's eyes were red.
After all, they have been sisters-in-law for nearly twenty years. There have been some unpleasantness and they don't like each other, but they have been living under the same roof for so long that there is more or less some affection between them.
Even strangers would shed tears of sympathy if they encountered such misfortune.
"Your second uncle is here..." Mrs. Du guessed.
"Bring back the bodies of Aunt Qin and Ah He and bury them in the cemetery outside the village."
Many people were buried there, including men who died while hunting, young boys and girls in their prime who died of illness shortly after arriving here, children who died young like Abao, and elderly people who were frail.
The coroner examined the body and found that Xiao Qin was buried alive before she died. The fetus in her belly was a skinny baby boy. Xiao Qin was twisted in pain, with broken fingers and torn straw mats. She died in a tragic way.
On the contrary, Su He was clearly burned to death by the fire, but he was very calm, with his limbs rarely bent. It can be imagined that he was determined to die.
After interrogation, it was learned that the advance payment made by those old gangsters was for prostitution.
The man who died in Feng Dazhuang's house was called Zhuer. He was Feng Dazhuang's childhood friend and also his first client.
These cases were not tried publicly, but Lao Caibangzi was given ten strokes of the cane each, which was against morals and corrupted public morals.
There was no one left at home for Feng's mother and son, or Zhu'er, so they were cremated at the charity cemetery.
"Let's go!" Yang Erlang patted his brother-in-law Su Laoer.
The two newly built tombs were close to each other, and Su Laoer was silent.
"Jiu Niang, He'er, in your next life, you should each find a good family, and don't meet a useless husband or father like me!" Su Lao Er said after a long silence.
Then he wiped the tears from his face and said, "Let's go!"
Life has to go on. I have a pregnant wife at home. I can't go back with a sad face.
"My husband is back?" Yang Chunhua heard some noise in the yard, and Su Laoer used a willow branch to brush off the dust on his body.
"Yes!" Su Lao Er took a deep breath and said in a gentle tone, "Is my wife doing well these days?"
"good!"
"I'll go take a shower and change clothes and come back to see you!" Su Laoer did not enter the house.
You just came out of the cemetery and are carrying bad luck with you. Don’t disturb the baby in your belly.
After washing his hair and taking a shower, Su Laoer went to see his wife in new clothes.
"Husband!" Yang Chunhua felt strange seeing her husband in such a state.
"My dear!" Su Lao Er gently hugged his wife, "We must be good and live a happy life together. We must teach our child well and not let her suffer any grievances or grow up in a wronged way!"
"What's wrong with my husband?" Yang Chunhua felt her husband's sadness and grief.
"It's okay! We must educate our children well in the future!" Su Laoer patted his wife gently.
"Yes! My husband is right! Boys should be like Boyan and Zhongyan, and girls should be like Aying, Xiaotao and Atang!" Yang Chunhua followed her husband's words.
During dinner, the house was unusually quiet, without any excitement of coming back from playing outside.
"What's going on today?" The old lady looked at her granddaughters and then at Su Laoer.
Because there was a pregnant woman present, everyone tacitly kept silent.
"I'm tired! Grandma, don't ask, I'm so tired! Xiaotao, Atang, have you finished eating? Let's go back to the house and rest!" Su Ying said half-truthfully.
"Do you ever get tired?" the old lady complained. "You're the only one who can jump up and down like a monkey all day long!"
Su Ying smiled and ran away with her sisters.
The tax grain collection has come to an end. My second brother Su Zhongyan will be with the boys for two or three days. After that, he will teach in the county government office. It will take at least ten days for him to come back.
The boys who went to Tong County should be back in four or five days. Shi Yan, Chen Yan and Quan Yan will be kept by County Magistrate Lin to do odd jobs in the county government office.
The colorful silkworms don't eat much. It seems that they will go up the mountain in the next two days. The results will be announced soon.
Mrs. Hu will bring her silk reeling machine and loom tomorrow, hoping to witness the birth of a miracle.
These days, Gao also came to help feed the silkworms, fearing that her daughter would not be able to control herself.
The baby in her daughter's belly is more precious and important than anything else. Gao doesn't want any accidents to happen!
