Chapter 310 Abandoning Du Heng
The current head of the Shangshu Mansion, Du Zhong, is actually the second son of Mrs. Du.

Mrs. Du's eldest son died young, and it took ten years before she had another son.

After all the calculations, the old lady is really not young now.

When a person gets old, his body cannot be compared with that of a young person.

A few days ago, this disease lasted on and off for more than a month, and it hasn't recovered yet.

Jia Shi trotted all the way to the outside of the old lady's courtyard, but was stopped by a servant girl.

The servant girl said crisply: "Is there something wrong with the second lady? The old lady just took the medicine and is now asleep. If it's not a big matter, it's better not to disturb the old lady."

Jia Shi was sweating on his forehead, he galloped all the way, his face turned pale, he said anxiously: "It's a big deal, a big deal, it's a really big deal!"

The servant girl frowned slightly, apparently in disbelief.

Jia could only swear and swear: "This time it's really a big deal. There is less cloth in the storeroom ahead, and the eldest lady and the second lady are having conflicts. It's okay for the old lady to see me, but today, it's really a big deal-it involves the emperor. , and the empress in the palace!"

Hearing what she said, the servant girl's face changed slightly, she just nodded and said: "Second madam wait for a while. This servant girl will call the old madam now."

The servant girl hurried into the courtyard, forgetting to invite Mrs. Jia in.

She was originally a small-minded person, but now she was anxious, but she didn't sulk because of it, she just walked back and forth, frowning and sighing...

After a while, the servant girl came out and said in a low voice: "Second madam, old madam let you in."

Jia said "Hey", lifted the hem of her skirt and strode into the yard.

Mrs. Du was fully dressed, and when she saw her second daughter-in-law entering the room in a hurry, she subconsciously lowered her face.

"If you have something to say, what do you do with this appearance?"

The old lady was very prestige, Jia Shi subconsciously trembled, and immediately stopped, putting away her flustered look.

Seeing her like this, Mrs. Du said calmly, "Tell me, what's the matter."

Jia Shi didn't know why, but standing in front of the old lady, she couldn't feel flustered at all.

She just spoke very fast, and said: "Brother just came back, called the eldest niece to the study, and taught her a lesson... From what that means, it is the eldest lady who has done something and let the palace know. The emperor wants to blame her Woolen cloth!"

Mrs. Du has lived most of her life, and she has seen more ups and downs than Jia can imagine.

She raised her eyelids slightly, and said solemnly: "What happened, you didn't find out clearly?"

Jia shrank her shoulders subconsciously, and said in a low voice, "Brother is angry, I, I don't dare to ask..."

Mrs. Du frowned, and the disgusted expression flashed across her face, but Mrs. Jia didn't see it.

"Forget it, Ajuan, help me up."

The servant girl who had been serving behind the old lady stepped forward, helped her up, and asked in a low voice: "Old lady, do you want to go to the front yard?"

Mrs. Du uttered an affirmative syllable from her nasal cavity, and a group of people came to the front yard in a mighty manner.

When I arrived at Du Zhong's study, I saw father and daughter, still confronting each other.

Du Zhong was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, maybe after scolding for a long time, he just gasped for breath.

Du Heng, who was kneeling on the ground with disheveled hair and swollen cheeks, was explaining something in a low voice.

The old lady looked at her coldly, and said: "What's the matter? What trouble did Ah Heng cause, are you going to beat her to death?"

Du Heng did not expect that the old lady, who had always disliked her, would actually help her with her first words.

Seeing his mother's frowning, Du Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Mother, aren't you still sick? Why did you disturb your old man?"

As he was speaking, he saw Jia Shi who was cowering behind Mrs. Du, and he knew it in his heart, and then a feeling of disgust arose.

Mrs. Du said indifferently: "Ah Heng, get up. Wipe away your tears and sit on the chair."

Du Heng stood up as he said, and Mrs. Du's maid, A Juan, stepped forward and tidied her clothes and hair.

He also listened to Mrs. Du's lesson: "Even if the eldest lady of the Shangshufu is wronged, she can't cry like this and lose the face of my Shangshufu."

Du Heng choked up and didn't speak.

Seeing Du Zhong beside him, he was so angry that his nose was not his nose, his eyes were not his eyes, and he complained: "Mother still talks about face—not to mention my own face, but the face of the entire Du family. !"

Mrs. Du glanced at her son, and said, "Ah Heng, what has happened to you? What made you so angry?"

Du Zhong immediately didn't care about the presence of the crowd, and only hated iron and steel: "She hired someone to rob other people's children, and after the matter was revealed, she asked Zhou Lai to kill people to silence it! This matter has been found out, and I will go to the court this morning. Xie Qian directly stabbed in front of the emperor! Mother said, how will the girls in my Du Mansion behave in the future?"

Jia Shi, who was standing by the side, was terrified when he heard that what Du Heng had done was not good for the reputation of the ladies in Du's mansion. She was afraid that her daughter's marriage would also be affected, so she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Ah! There are still three people in the mansion. Miss, and the second lady!"

The wrinkles between Mrs. Du's brows deepened, she ignored Jia Shi, only looked at Du Heng coldly, and asked, "Did you really do such a thing?"

Du Heng wept silently: "Yes, grandma. Ah Heng did it."

Mrs. Du was not as angry as Du Zhong, and she never scolded Du Heng.

With a particularly calm expression on her face, she said to Du Heng: "If you told the family before this happened, the family can settle it for you and wipe away the evidence. You should never be smart, After the incident was exposed, you still thought of relying on your own ability to kill people to silence the truth. Now that the trouble has come to the imperial court, no one can save you."

Du Heng had always hated his grandmother for being unfair to him in his previous life, and in this life he is always on guard against Mrs. Du.

What makes her feel the most ironic is that now that a big event is happening, the only person who will think about her is the old lady who has never pretended to her on weekdays.

At the same time, Du Heng also clearly understood that what Mrs. Du had to consider more was the Du Mansion.

But Mrs. Du's attitude finally ignited a glimmer of hope in Du Heng's heart.

She knelt down in front of Mrs. Du, with tears streaming down her face, and begged, "Grandmother, save Ah Heng... Please grandma, save Ah Heng..."

Mrs. Du looked at her granddaughter begging coldly, shook her head and said, "I can't save you."

Desperate in his heart, Du Heng looked at his father's still angry face, and then at his grandmother's indifferent expression, and finally his whole body went limp, and he fell down on the table, crying bitterly.

……

Mrs. Du waved away the crowd, leaving only Du Heng silently sad.

She and Du Zhong discussed in the study for less than half an hour. During the period, she did not avoid Du Heng, but arranged the next things one by one.

Mrs. Du said solemnly: "The second girl and the third girl don't want to communicate with each other these days, and the government has to issue a strict order to prohibit discussing this matter."

Du Zhong nodded: "What mother said is true."

Seeing Mrs. Du again disgusted: "Mr. Jia is a slobber. When the second child comes back, you can remind him and let him take care of his daughter-in-law."

The whole house has been arranged, and Du Zhong has some confidence in his heart.

Du Zhong frowned, calmed down and said: "This matter hasn't been publicized yet, but the emperor is concerned about his friendship with the imperial concubine and empress, and refuses to let her lose face. It's just that we have to express ourselves."

Mrs. Du raised her eyes: "What do you mean?"

Du Zhong and his mother looked at each other without speaking.

He didn't say it clearly, but the meaning of abandoning Du Heng was already obvious...
