old house bird thing

Chapter 14: Nightfall

The sweltering weather seemed to be against Xiangxiang on purpose. It was like taking a sauna in the small black room, and the whole body was sweating from the heat.Xiangxiang thinks that prison is nothing more than that. He eats, drinks, and sleeps in this small place of a few square meters. Flies and mosquitoes are buzzing around, surrounded by stinky hot air, which makes people want to vomit.

At noon two days later, Steward Wang came and personally helped Xiangxiang out of the firewood room. He said: "It's all right, everything has been found out. That girl broke the young master of the Li family in the city before, and many people were injured." I know. Your uncle said that your aunt took the girl back, but he didn't know, so it has nothing to do with the second aunt."

Xiangxiang smelled the air of green grass outside the house and felt his whole body come alive. He thought he would be suffocated to death in the small black room.

The noon sun made Xiangxiang dizzy for a while, a group of whistle pigeons streaked across the sky in the distance, Du Liangwen, the son of the fifth concubine, was peeking behind a black pillar, and the thin vine frame was full of ripe grapes, stinging. One fell down and fell into the deep dark well under the grape trellis.

As soon as Xiangxiang entered the hall, a woman in a green cheongsam rushed forward, hugged Xiangxiang and cried, "Son, meat!" It was the teary-eyed Second Aunt who was crying.

Master Du stood behind and said, "Okay, okay, why are you crying, and I didn't bother him much."

The second aunt cried and said: "Our Yu'er has never been willing to beat him since he was a child, and he has never suffered such grievances. Master, you have to make decisions for our Yu'er, and put the little girl who wronged our Yu'er Mrs. Chang caught it." Master Du cleared his throat, looked at Xiangxiang and said, "Yu'er, father blamed you, but it can't be all blamed on father, who told you to provoke those dirty women , and your uncle’s house, what! I thought that anyone could come in here, and I didn’t figure it out beforehand. If we lost people in our house, you would be wronged. But now that the matter is clear , don’t be wronged, I will find someone to arrest that woman surnamed Zhou, soak her in a pig cage, and vent my anger on you.”

Seeing that Xiang Xiang lowered his head and said nothing, Master Du asked, "What? What do you say?"

Xiangxiang raised his head and said seriously to Master Du: "You don't need to catch Zhou Lanxin, I don't need to catch her to vent my anger, what are you fussing about with a helpless girl like her? I'm not you, I need to step on others head to show your difference."

Master Du clicked his tongue, and he said, "Didn't Dad apologize to you just now? Why are you so angry? It's okay, you have been locked up for several days, go down and have a rest."

Xiangxiang's temper came up, he really couldn't understand Mr. Du's thought of not treating people as human beings, he stepped forward and said: "I'm not trying to be angry with you, I just want to tell you, please don't do it again for no reason. arresting and beating people, now the dynasty has changed, it is the Republic of China, there are new laws and documents, your behavior is wrong, this is not in the Qing Dynasty, you are the master, you can control everyone's life and death power."

However, Master Du seemed to have heard some joke. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he sneered and said, "I think you are stupid studying outside, the Republic of China? Code? Hmph."

Xiangxiang said: "Are you a barbarian by arresting people and soaking them in pig cages? Don't you know it's against the law?"

Master Du said, "Are you talking to your father? Are you questioning me?"

Seeing that Master Du's face changed, the second aunt immediately grabbed Xiangxiang and said, "What are you talking about, kid? Your father wanted to arrest that girl because he wanted to vent his anger on you. Apologize to your father."

Xiangxiang said to the second aunt: "Why do you even say that? I don't apologize, he should be the one who should apologize." Xiangxiang pointed to Master Du and said.

"It's wrong, it's wrong!" Master Du slapped the table and said, "You're still accusing your father, don't you know how to behave? Your books have been read into the stomach of a dog! I don't think you have learned enough. , and want to be locked up again.”

Xiangxiang said: "I have my own standards for how to behave, and I don't need you to teach me. This place is really depressing, and I can't stay there for a day." Then he turned and left.

"Evil son! Where are you going!" Master Du shouted.

"Whatever, it's not here anyway."

Seeing that Xiangxiang and Master Du were arguing fiercely, the second aunt was so frightened that she burst into tears. She pulled Xiangxiang's sleeve and begged, "Why are you so violent, go and apologize to your father."

But Xiangxiang went straight out, unable to hold back, and the second aunt went to Master Radu again when she saw this: "Master, calm down, this child has been locked up for several days, so he is angry. He didn't mean it. You call him quickly."

Master Du said angrily: "The good son you raised has resented his father. I have no temper for such a son. Isn't he unable to stay? You let him go as far away as possible. Never come back."

The second aunt pushed Master Du angrily, and turned to chase Xiangxiang, but Xiangxiang was already out of the gate.

The second aunt called the servant at the door to stop him, stepped forward to hold him and refused to let go, crying: "Where are you going to go without your mother?"

Xiangxiang lowered his head and said, "Don't stop me, I don't want to stay here."

The second aunt widened her eyes and said, "How dare you! You are not allowed to go anywhere when your mother is here!"

Xiangxiang said: "What's so good about this poor place, you can go with me."

The second aunt patted Xiangxiang's chest with hatred and said, "You stupid idiot...you, if you leave today, when will you come back? Will you come back? You don't want your mother anymore! "

Xiangxiang interrupted the second aunt and said, "Anyway, I want to leave, no one can stop me."

Xiangxiang pushed open the door and ran out, letting the second aunt cry behind him: "Come back to me, come back to me."

In the eldest wife's room in the backyard of the Du residence, Hong Xing, the little girl next to the eldest wife, was reporting: "The second young master had a quarrel with the master and ran out. The master said he should never come back. Master, pull it back."

The eldest lady sneered and said: "At first I just wanted to teach him a lesson for beating Liangmo last time, but I didn't expect him to find a way to die for himself. What an idiot, it's just right to leave, and don't even think about coming back with Liangmo in the future." Silently divide the family property."

The little maid said again: "But the master said that he would take that girl back, what if she reveals that we threatened her that the second young master is her concubine?"

The eldest lady rolled her eyes, but without speaking, she waved her hand and told the little girl to go down.

The Du house was calm again, like a pool of clear water, with the breeze blowing, the ripples gradually disappeared without a trace.
