Chapter 2 Cell Argument
Xu Yinxi, the eldest daughter of the second room, sat curled up in the corner with a calm face. Compared to the crying and crying of everyone, her still slightly immature face was cold and silent at the moment. "Three brothers, why should you be angry? Everyone in the world is just trying to get rid of you." Those who look down on them. Yesterday it was me, today it is Qingying, and tomorrow it will be the turn of the eldest and second brothers. Who among the Xu family who are engaged can escape?"

Only then did Xu Zhenying remember that on the day Xu Jia Zhengdang was imprisoned, Xu Yinxi's fiancé's family sent a divorce letter overnight.

She vaguely remembered that the second aunt of that family had been carefully selecting for several years.

A young talent, but at the age of seventeen he was already a candidate.His family background is innocent and the population of the family is also simple. His father has reached the position of fourth-grade prefect, and his mother is famous for being gentle and gentle.Such a good son-in-law is really hard to find even with a lantern.

The second wife originally planned to hold a wedding in the spring of next year. Unexpectedly, things are unpredictable. The wedding dress is almost embroidered, and the bride is waiting in her boudoir for her husband. However, this happened to the Xu family.

"Yinxi, how could you say that?!" Second Aunt hurriedly scolded her, but she seemed to have thought of the avoidant attitude of her relatives and friends these days, and became even less confident, "Not necessarily, your father is still in court. Some old friends——"

"Isn't it?" Xu Yinxi raised her head and asked, "Although I still don't know what crime my father committed, but it must be no small matter to ransack the house and jail him overnight. Now we have asked everyone we should beg for, but there is no one who dares to pay attention to it. Who dares to wade into this muddy water, not to mention the in-laws who have nothing to do with each other, just friends and relatives? Mother, you spent so much money to send the jailer to beg my grandfather, but where is my grandfather? All this It’s been three days. If grandpa really misses you, my daughter, and my granddaughter, he should at least send a servant to ask—"

"No, no." Lian Qiuzhi shook his head, his face suddenly turned pale and weak, "This matter is of great importance. It will take time for dad to clear up the relationship. He will only wrong us for a while. Your grandfather will definitely not No matter how many of our mothers—"

"Mom! Wake up!" Xu Yinxi usually only knew that Lian was a little confused when it came to being the housekeeper, but she never expected that she would be so confused at the critical moment.

"You also said that this matter is of great importance. Even if you are a blood relative, you would not dare to intervene at will. What's more, you are just..."

Xu Yinxi originally wanted to say that Lian was just one of her grandfather's concubines who was not very favored, but she finally held back.

She didn't want to hurt her mother like this.

She controlled her emotions and said calmly: "You are just one of my grandfather's children. But my grandfather still has many children. My eldest uncle and my second uncle are now prosperous in officialdom. He can't let his two uncles take risks for our Xu family. What's more? , even if grandpa wants to save our Xu family, will grandma agree?"

Lian's face turned even paler.

She is a concubine and is naturally not loved by her aunt.On weekdays, human relationships are beneficial to each other, so naturally you are good to me and I am good to you.But once the incident comes to light and the thin layer of paper is torn away, no one will care about whom.

Seeing Lian's face, everyone's heart suddenly went cold.

Lian's father reached the third rank and was a general in the court with many disciples. He was also the Xu family's last hope.

"What does this mean?" The eldest aunt looked around and seemed to realize something. Her expression was like lightning, "Does this mean that your parents are not willing to save us? Didn't you say before that your parents would definitely send someone here? !Lian Qiuzhi, please speak!!"

Everyone in the cell was silent.

Even grandmother Huang asked tremblingly: "My in-laws... really don't care about us? Didn't they say that my in-laws are high officials in the court? Such a small matter... my in-laws can settle it with just a wave of their fingers - "

"Grandma!" Xu Yinxi also had a somewhat impatient expression, "No matter how high-ranking my grandfather was, he would always run errands for Your Majesty. Now that the Xu family has committed a crime, His Majesty also issued the imperial decree to imprison us. Could it be that you want Grandfather to do Xu's work for us?" Are you going to resist the decree? Or do you want the Lian family to be buried with our Xu family?"

Grandmother Huang sat on the ground blankly, her face full of grooves shook, and she murmured: "How could this happen..."

The eldest aunt was the first to cry, and raised her hand to tear off the second aunt's sleeves, "What sin have I done?! We usually have no share of the eldest family in enjoying the good things, but now if something happens, they will take it out on us." Come on, there is no such thing in the world. As for the second uncle, please tell me, what crime did the second uncle commit, and why did he implicate this big family in having their homes confiscated and beheaded? If you can’t explain clearly today, Don’t blame me for being rude!!”

The second aunt was so angry that her face was livid. The second daughter, Xu Lezhi, who was only 13 years old, appeared out of nowhere at this moment. She had always claimed that she was the legitimate daughter of the Xu family and had been superior to others since she was a child. She also bossed around her sisters on weekdays. Seeing that his mother's sleeves were almost torn off by her eldest aunt, whom she usually despises the most, she instantly shouted like a firecracker: "What did aunt say? What do you mean I'm not as good as you when it comes to eating well and having fun on weekdays?" As for the house, I don’t know who randomly accepted the gift the year before last. I dared to accept a solid golden Buddha statue for my father. If the fourth aunt hadn’t been clever enough to find a reason to return it, our family would have been beheaded and ransacked! I Bah, now I'm talking about getting involved. In the past, I didn't know who was out there under the banner of my father, and they all went to my house. Now, if something goes wrong, I'll beat them up. This time, I can't tell who is behind it. What kind of immoral thing did you do to implicate our second wife?!"

Xiao Huang was angry and annoyed, "You disrespectful thing, who taught you to talk to your elders like this?! It's obviously your father. Your father did something wrong. Maybe even the prison sentence is a light one. Maybe in a few days we will all be taken to the vegetable market and beheaded - Ouch... Why is my life so miserable? When I married into your Xu family, I thought I could live a good life for a few days. Who knows that every day I have to work hard in the fields to support my second uncle in his studies. I can’t even get a meal all year round, so everything goes into the hole where my second uncle studies. What kind of life am I living? Mrs. Guan just said it nicely, I’ll have to fuck more. Everyone in the second family of the two families would glare at me..."

"Nonsense... When has my mother ever treated you harshly? You are simply confusing right and wrong!!" Xu Lezhi is a young girl who has not yet left the court. How can she be so shameless as to scold an aunt who is as shameless as a hob? She was furious at the moment. Turning red, he only managed to utter a few words for a long time, "Get up, you..."

The word "shrew" was not cursed.

"I, whoever I am, will be implicated to death by your second wife, why are you not allowed to cry a few words in mourning?! I am wronged, God, why is my life so miserable! I haven't even had enough food for a few days... I have to accompany you I'm going to behead my head... God, I, Huang Cui'e, have lived a useless life in this life -" Xiao Huang rolled on the spot as she spoke. Her hair was disheveled and she began to behave. She began to curse at the sky and the earth, and began to howl like ghosts and wolves. She shed a few tears when she got to the emotional point.

It seems that this time I am really sad.

Also, being imprisoned overnight, life or death is uncertain.

Most of the men are still locked in another cell. The old, weak, women and children of the family usually stay at home until the officials come to arrest them. Everyone is blind and has no idea what is going on. .

Grandmother Huang was so angry that she beat her chest and shouted: "I've rebelled against you. After all, you have been a wife for so many years. Look what you look like now -"

"Mom, I am a mud-legged person. Didn't you have to work in the fields back then? Have you forgotten that my parents borrowed bran rice to celebrate the New Year? That winter, I have only been an old lady for a few years. , You can’t be so forgetful of your roots as a human being!”

Well, one sentence completely made my grandmother almost faint.

Faced with a scene that made people jump every moment they opened their eyes, Xu Zhenying almost couldn't help but laugh out loud.

What kind of bloody plot is this?

The eldest aunt is truly a hero among women, capable of bending and stretching, just like a knife. She is unreasonably allowed to mess with her, and the whole family cannot help her.

The second aunt is also a hidden person.

As for the taciturn fourth aunt, she hid in the corner and watched them without saying a word. It seemed that the whole process had nothing to do with her, and she must have had her own plans.

Everyone in the old Xu family is not simple.

Although they are all from the same family, Xu Zhenying's family is only hers and Old Man Xu's.Most of her relatives and friends were normal people with higher education. She had never seen such a big scene in her life, and she felt a little lively for a while.

But it took away some of the pain of separation from Old Man Xu.

However, what is the situation now?

Xu Zhenying wanted to ask a few questions, but it seemed that except for the second uncle who was imprisoned next door, everyone else had no idea why the Xu family was in prison.

Seeing that she couldn't stop looking at her, Mrs. Miao thought she was scared, so she quickly held her in her arms and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, my son. It will be fine. Although your second uncle is not an upright and good official. , but we can’t do anything big to kill the Nine Tribes... Maybe Your Majesty will lock us up for a few days and then let us out..."

Really?
Xu Huiming on the side seemed to disagree, but she pursed her lips, glanced at Mrs. Miao, lowered her head and remained silent.

Seeing this, Xu Zhenying asked: "What do you think, brother?"

Xu Huiming shook his head and smiled a little reluctantly, "It's nothing."

Xu Zhenying said seductively: "Brother, if you know something, you should communicate with your family early. The earlier we know, the better we can make early plans. If something happens, we will be very passive."

Seeing Miao and her eldest brother looking at her with doubts, Xu Zhenying's heart skipped a beat, knowing that she had been exposed.

The original owner was a shy and shy girl who never said a word.It's really not like the original owner's style to be so organized after such a sudden disaster.

She quickly added: "Mom, brother, I almost died last night, and I have already made up my mind. Don't worry, the Zheng family has humiliated the Xu family in this way, and I will never have any thoughts about him again. And now the Xu family Life and death are unpredictable, and my daughter has no extra energy to think about the long-term love between her children... She is dead, so what else is there to worry about... The most important thing right now is how our family can work together to overcome this difficulty."
