The girl who wears fast

Chapter 764 The Unlucky Sister Who Was Swapped (9)

"What shocking event do you think she will do?" Just as Liu Shichu was listening with gusto, the uncle suddenly asked her.

"She killed those who killed her son?" Liu Shichu asked curiously.

The uncle shook his head: "She is not so cruel, she just sued those who harmed her son, accusing them of hurting others without reason, disobedience, murdering brothers, disregarding brotherhood, and committing the following crimes. "

Liu Shichu's eyes widened in an instant. People in this era pay attention to "family ugliness should not be publicized", and most women regard their husbands as heaven, and dare not resist their husbands at all. However, Du Xiuzhu's grandmother dared to disregard her husband's opposition and resistance, directly Suing her husband's favorite concubines and concubines to the government, how could this not make Liu Shichu look at her with admiration?
"Didn't her husband stop her?" Liu Shichu asked.

"How to stop it? She went to the Minister of Dali Temple by herself to complain. She didn't tell anyone before, not even Master Du's father..." said the old man.

"The result?" Liu Shichu was curious.

"As a result, Lord Du's grandmother succeeded. She left evidence that those people did cause her son to fall into the pond before the imperial examination and miss the exam. Therefore, the concubines and concubines who participated were sentenced The cane punishment and imprisonment, as well as some fines, can be regarded as some justice for Mr. Du's father. It's just that Mr. Du's father's future has been ruined by them, how can these justice be repaid?" The uncle said with a sigh,
"Master Du's grandfather also blamed his grandmother for punishing his beloved concubine and son, so he treated the family members of Master Du's grandmother extremely harshly, finding faults and torturing them every day, making their life at home even more difficult. I've suffered a lot."

Liu Shichu could imagine how much resentment Du Xiuzhu's grandmother's piercing behavior would cause her husband, but her husband is still the head of the family, and he is fully capable of abusing them and taking revenge on them.

"Could it be that they can only bear it like this?" Liu Shichu didn't quite believe that a strong woman who could go all out to get justice for her son would be willing to bear these things without fighting back.

The old man smiled and said, "Of course not. One day, Mrs. Du's grandmother sent her son's family to the temple to pray for herself. It happened that night, the house caught fire, and the fire broke out so fast that the neighbors couldn't save it in time." , The fire burned the whole family to death, even his grandmother did not escape... Except Mr. Du's family who went to the temple to pray for blessings escaped, the other Du family members are all gone."

Liu Shichu looked at the uncle sharply, realizing what he meant, the uncle said mysteriously: "Everyone thinks that Mrs. Du's grandmother set the fire, but no one has any evidence, because there is no proof of death."

"That's ruthless enough." Liu Shichu thought, but if her son with a bright future was ruined, and the enemy's family continued to abuse and take revenge on her, then she might do even more ruthless. I can understand Du Xiuzhu's grandmother's approach, rather than submitting to be bullied by the enemy, it is better to drag the enemy to die together.

"After that, Master Du's family will be able to live in peace and tranquility?" Liu Shichu asked, the enemies were all dead, only his family was left, and there was nothing left to fight.

But the uncle shook his head: "No. At first Mr. Du's family lived comfortably for a few years, but his father somehow didn't have to fight with the family, so he put all his energy outside. He was outside Keeping the outer room..."

Suddenly Liu Shichu didn't know what expression was on her face, she opened her mouth, and she said in astonishment, "The outer room?!"

"Yes, Mrs. Du's mother was originally a gentle and gentle woman, but after so many years in the complex Du family, her temperament has changed a lot and she became paranoid. She disagreed with her husband taking concubines. After her husband raised a concubine outside, she became very angry, found her husband who was hanging out with the concubine, killed him and the concubine, and then committed suicide by herself..."

At this time, Liu Shichu didn't know what expression to make on his face. After a while, he calmed down his shocked mood, and then said bluntly, "Isn't this because you were too stimulated?"

The uncle said: "At that time, Master Du was only twelve or thirteen years old, and he lost his parents and other relatives around him, so he could only take care of things by himself early on, and collect the bones for his parents... After that, everyone will be together." It is said that the women in Du's family are too hot-tempered and cruel-hearted. The mother-in-law set fire to the whole family, and the daughter-in-law also killed her husband and the wife. They are ruthless in the same vein. Master Du has grown up and got it He became an official with fame and fame, and no one dares to propose marriage to him until now, because he is afraid that something unpredictable will happen to his daughter when she marries in..."

Liu Shichu was expressionless. He didn't expect Du Xiuzhu to be really miserable, but the elders in his family were like this and it didn't affect his future, so he was considered a capable person.

"How old is Master Du now?" Liu Shichu was a little curious. He looked quite young and handsome, but he couldn't get a wife because of the elders in his family. It made him sad to think about it.

"27? It's about to be a year old, isn't it?" said the uncle, "He is at his age, and his son is in his teens, but he doesn't even have a wife. The Du family is almost dead in his generation."

"He doesn't have any other siblings?" Liu Shichu asked, "Isn't he the only one left in the Du family?"

"That's not true. He also has a younger sister who married out of town a few years ago - no one dares to marry her in the local area, because she is afraid that she will inherit the temperament of her grandmother and mother..." the uncle said with emotion.

However, Liu Shichu thought that it would be good to inherit her grandmother and mother's temper. She would rather be broken than whole, so she would not be afraid of heartbreakers.

The uncle told Liu Shichu about the affairs of Du Xiuzhu's family for a long time, probably because what happened in his family in the early years was too shocking and everyone in the capital knew about it, so the uncle talked about it in detail, and Liu Shichu listened with great interest. , feeling inexplicably sympathetic to Du Xiuzhu.

So the next day, when she went to set up a stall on the street again, when Du Xiuzhu passed by her stall, she gave him a wooden fox sculpture.

"Why did Ms. Liu give me this wood carving? You can keep it and sell it." Du Xiuzhu declined.

Liu Shichu's desire to give him something was just impulsive. Now he asked the reason, but she couldn't find a suitable reason for a while. You can't say that I sympathize with you, can you?Then Du Xiuzhu must feel that she is baffled.

She is an orphan who has no one to rely on and has to make woodcarvings for sale. What qualifications does she have to sympathize with the court officials?People will feel that she has no self-awareness at all.

"Uh, I just want to thank you for your efforts in the case of Wang Erniu's abduction and trafficking of me. If you hadn't been aware of the details, Wang Erniu's family might have escaped the charges." Liu Shichu finally found an excuse.
