Chapter 31 31

At eight o'clock in the evening, Jing felt that Xin was sitting alone in the room and was bored, so he burned a box of sandalwood, picked out a bunch of letter paper, and wanted to put his full of grief and anger on the paper.He wept as he wrote.Juemin, Qin, Yun, Shuying, and Shuhua sisters came to see him (Yun came this afternoon, Zhou was afraid that Yun would be bored at home alone and mourn, so she invited her to Gao's house to be with her cousins. Play and relax).When they saw this, they were amazed.They also guessed that he was writing to Juehui.Shuhua asked him for a letter to read.Juexin did not refuse, and handed the written letter to Shuhua.After reading it, Shuhua handed it to Shuying, Shuying handed it to Yun, Yun gave it to Qin, and Qin gave it to Juemin, and so on.

Juemin read Juexin's letter, as if he saw a young life gradually withering on the paper.Juexin's gentle and mournful melody pricked his heart and aroused even greater grief and indignation.He couldn't bear to think: one thing after another, one life after another, when will this tragedy end?When will the old forces that destroy youth and love be eradicated?Such a lovely victim.That beautiful face was still groaning in despair in this room a month or two ago.Now a thin coffin buried all hope.They couldn't rescue her, let her be forced step by step into the abyss, but now they have to mourn in front of her soul.He could not bear the stuffy air, he could not bear their gentle words.He read the letter aloud in a sad and indignant tone, he wanted to vent the depression in his chest, and he wanted to arouse the anger of others.He read: "...it was half past ten, and the hospital was closed. My mother and elder brother dispensed medicine for Cousin Hui from time to time. At eleven o'clock, after taking the medicine, there was no sound, and she died of collapse.

Woohoo it hurts.Immediately ordered people to report to Zheng's mansion and grandmother's house, take care of the clothes, and ordered Sister-in-law Yang and others to cleanse and rectify Cousin Hui.Everything is slightly prepared, and weep bitterly.This night everyone stayed until dawn, with teary eyes facing each other, looking back at Cousin Hui, she was not thin, and her sad and miserable eyes were not as severe as today's night.My brother was overly stimulated and had a splitting headache.He was discharged from the hospital at dawn.When my brother returned home, the family was still asleep.Brother fell asleep immediately after taking the medicine, and when he arrived at the hospital after 8 o'clock, there was nothing but tears in his eyes.Grandmother, uncle and relatives and friends all came.Entered the coffin at 2 o'clock, buried at 2:30 o'clock, discharged from the hospital at 3:30 o'clock, and was carried to Puci Temple outside the east gate for temporary posting at 3:30 o'clock.The Zheng family shirks everything and is extremely indifferent to Cousin Hui's funeral.The uncle is weak and incompetent and self-willed.Brother was very angry and sad at that time, so he returned home by himself on the way.Unexpectedly, another army was stationed in Puci Temple.The elder brother, grandmother, aunt, and mother are afraid of their harassment and insist on relocating, so they have decided on the lotus nunnery, and the relocation will take about three days.

It is now scheduled to go into service at the Zhejiang Guild Hall on the second day of the first month of next month.The third uncle and brother proposed an elegiac couplet, which is transcribed as follows: When was Guimei, Uncle Chengshun, Qi Yanqinxian, I didn’t expect the grass to be wilted and suitable for men, only a few words were left behind, and the fairy was born in the pure land. ..." Juexin's letter ended here. Everyone was waiting to read the following sentence, but he put down his pen and stopped writing. Yun wept while reading, and when she read it, she was so sad that she handed the letter to Qin , A person walked to the square table and sat down, bowed his head on the table and cried sadly.

Shuhua wanted to go over to comfort Yun, but Juexin stopped her and said, "Sanmei, just let Cousin Yun cry for a while. She needs to cry for a while to feel better." He didn't think his eyes were full of tears as he spoke. . "Brother, you can't send such a pair. This is obviously a lie." Juemin said dissatisfied. "It's a lie, I know it myself," Juexin replied painfully. "So I didn't have the courage to write any more after I wrote this. In our environment, I can only tell lies." It's gone," Juemin said angrily. "You didn't see the pair that my uncle gave me, that would be so annoying. My uncle is so embarrassed to say that everyone praises his husband and son-in-law for his talents, so he should have nothing to hate. I'm afraid he is the only one who praises Boxiong as a genius," Jue Xin Said, also a little angry.

"I have a pair to send, eight words: I have nothing to say when I am dying, but I can think about it in life. Brother, what do you think?" Juemin said seriously. "It's a pleasure." Shuhua clapped her hands and said happily. "Second brother, don't do this soon. You will cause me trouble again," Juexin said anxiously, waving his hands. "What are you afraid of? I'm just talking. I won't send it. I'm not a fool, and I don't know how to play the piano against the cow," Juemin sneered. "Don't talk about this matter anymore. Look, sister Yun is so sad, why don't you try to persuade her well?" Qin saw Yun Fu sobbing on the table, very pitiful, she couldn't bear it, so she interjected.Her own heart was troubled by nostalgia, grief and remorse.She couldn't help thinking of Hui; she couldn't help feeling wronged by Hui's tragic death.This ending of Hui was expected by her. The news of Hui's death did not surprise her, but she had expected that Hui would fall into this abyss sooner or later. I feel remorse.

"I'm not sad. I'm not sad," Yun raised her head, pleading with tears all over her face. "You still said you weren't sad. You can see that your eyes are swollen from crying," Qin said pitifully.Seeing Qixia beside her, she ordered, "Qixia, go get Miss Yun a basin of washing water." Qixia agreed and walked out immediately. Yun heard Qin's kind and gentle voice, and thought of Hui again. She cried sadly and said, "I don't believe that my sister will die. This seems to be a dream. It seems that she was with me yesterday." "I I also feel that Cousin Hui was in this room not long ago, and we were all talking and laughing, as if it happened yesterday. I didn’t expect that she would die so quickly,” Shuhua said regretfully, but this regret was immediately dismissed. Resentment was driven away.She thought of Hui's pathogen, and the days Hui lived in Zheng's family, and she couldn't help but feel extremely angry.

"I also remember that once at night I went to the elder brother's house with her, and the elder brother said: The three of us fell into the same fate... Now I can't think of her leaving us alone. Alas..." Shuying Touched to say, she wanted to hold back tears, but she finally let out a crying moan. "Cousin Hui was murdered. Someone should come out to avenge her," Shuhua yelled angrily. "Third Sister, please be quiet. Don't talk nonsense. Who do you say will take revenge? And whom?" Juexin seemed to feel that there was a fire burning in his heart, and he warned Shuhua irritably while wiping away his tears.Qixia came in with a washbasin and put it on the square table.She twisted her facekerchief and handed it to Yun.Yun wiped her face, and still sat there listening to them.

"Third Sister's words are also very reasonable. We should avenge Cousin Hui, not against people, but against the system," Juemin said suddenly with a serious expression. Juexin looked at Juexin in horror.Shuying looked at Juemin in astonishment.Qin nodded secretly beside him.Shuhua didn't quite understand Juemin's words, and she asked angrily: "Revenge? I'm afraid it's just empty talk. I always see good people suffer and bad people succeed. Isn't the second sister's marriage the same?What can you do?The Chen family is not necessarily better than the Zheng family.I heard that Chen Wenzhi is worse than Zheng Guoguang. "" Chen Wenzhi?How do you even know the name? "Juemin said in surprise.

"You think you're the only one who knows? Call Wende and ask what kind of person Chen Wenzhi is." Shuhua said half-smugly and half-angrily.She didn't mention what Wan'er said. "That's strange. How can a sister-in-law inquire about her brother-in-law's affairs..." Juemin deliberately provoked her. "Second cousin." Seeing Shuying's pitiful expression with her face reddened and her head buried, Qin interrupted Juemin's words loudly.Juemin glanced at Qin with comprehension, and then shut up. "Second Brother, I'm not afraid that you will be angry with me. I want to provoke you to see if you can help Second Sister?" Shuhua raised her head and said to Juemin in a chasing manner.

"Let's talk about it at that time, it's still early." Juemin replied as if evading.In fact, he already has a plan in mind, and even the steps to implement it are more or less determined.But he didn't want to reveal it in front of the Shuhuas. "You said it's still early? I don't think it's too early. The Chen family has already come to make a decision," Juexin was very distressed. He heard Juemin's words, and without paying attention, he revealed the news he wanted to conceal. Juexin's words surprised everyone.They had never heard of this news.Although Juemin was often worried about this level, he didn't know that the Chen family had already come to remind him.Juexin's words gave him solid evidence: the battle was about to begin.He has to be ready to fight.This time he can't fail, so he can't lose his chance.He looked at Qin with profound eyes, and Qin nodded to him knowingly. When Shuying heard Juexin's words, she uttered the word "ammonia" beside her, and then she sat down and buried her head in silence. It was Juemin who asked calmly, "When did you know?"Why not tell us?Did the third dad agree? "Juexin saw that he could no longer hide it, so he said truthfully: "One day I went to the third father's house, and the third father was reading the almanac.He wanted to choose an auspicious day to make an appointment for his second sister.Later, after I persuaded him here and there, he changed the set date to next spring..." "So did it change or not? "Juemin interrupted hastily and asked. "Listen to me, don't interrupt me," Juexin also said anxiously, "The third father agreed. He asked a matchmaker to negotiate with the Chen family. I came back from the hospital this afternoon and met the third father. He told me: The Chen family is still I hope to make a decision and pick up people sooner. The third dad also plans to hold this happy event earlier." "Then the date won't be long," Qin said anxiously. "But I'm very surprised, why didn't you tell me this news earlier? Do you remember what you promised me before? You said you would try your best to help the second sister, what are you going to do now?" Juemin complained to Juexin in surprise road. "Me? What do you think I can do? I have more energy than I want," Juexin replied dejectedly. "You don't care, so as not to cause trouble for you," Juemin said angrily; "I don't think I can't think of a way." At this time, Jueying suddenly lifted the curtain and came in, and shouted mischievously: "Second sister, three Sister, Jian Yun is here, and he tells you to go to study. Don’t skip school.” “I’ll come,” Shuying said lazily, but she didn’t stand up. Seeing Shuying's expression, Qin knew that Juexin's words had a bad influence on Shuying's heart.She wanted to clean it up, so she kindly comforted Shuying and said, "Second cousin, you should study English. We will give you some advice about your affairs." She looked at Shuying with encouraging eyes. "Sister Qin," Shuying called affectionately.She also looked back at Qin.Jean's gaze gave her a proof.She was slightly relieved.She went on to say: "Okay, third sister, let's go." She then told Qixia to go to the back to find Cuihuan and bring her English textbooks. Jueying saw that everyone shut up and didn't talk much when he came in. He only heard Qin say to Shuying: "Your matter," and asked curiously: "Sister Qin, what are you talking about?" You want to push open the door curtain and go out, and when you hear Jueying's words, you don't lose your head and answer for Qin: "Fourth brother, mind your own business." Jueying ignored Shuhua, but wrapped around Qin and asked, "Sister Qin, what happened?" What's the matter?...Is it because father doesn't allow second sister to read English?" "Fourth cousin, there is really no such thing, who did you hear?" Qin replied perfunctorily, suppressing her disgust. "I heard my father scolded my second sister for not allowing her to read English; but my father forgot about it later. I gradually got a sense of my father's temper. My father also said that I was not allowed to feed the pigeons. I just feed them anyway." As long as I don’t let him see mine, he won’t mention it any more,” Jueying said proudly. "You're so smart," Juemin said sarcastically. "It's not that I'm boasting, but I have some cleverness," Jueying thought that Juemin was praising him, and she became even more proud, so she said to Juemin with a smile; "Not to mention anything else, even fourth dad is a little afraid of me now," he said. As he spoke, he raised a thumb of his right hand. "I don't believe you're outrageous," Juemin shook his head and smiled. "You don't believe me? Let me tell you," Jueying said solemnly. "One day I went to play with my fifth brother and ran to my aunt's house. My aunt was not at home. I saw my fourth father—" He suddenly shut his mouth and turned around, and then quickly continued: "Holding Nanny Yang and touching Grandma , Nanny Yang's chest is open..." "Fourth brother, you say such things in front of your cousin. I think you should be beaten." Juexin shouted disgustedly. "I can't say no to what they did," Jueying replied confidently.He just continued happily: "Seventh Sister fell asleep on the bed. There is no one else in the room. I stood still on purpose and my fourth dad gave me two yuan and told me not to tell anyone, so I left.He often gave me snacks in the future. "When he said this, he suddenly realized that others were sternly ignoring him, so he put away his chatterbox and ran out happily. "He is really a traitor." Juemin looked at Jueying's back and cursed in disgust, "Maybe one day he will go to the fourth aunt to tell the truth." "Then the fourth father and the fourth aunt will make a big fuss again." field," Juexin said worriedly. "That's fine, don't do our business anyway," Juemin said indifferently.He added: "Maybe the third father will be invited to judge justice again." "You don't know, the fourth aunt is not as easy to deal with as the fifth aunt. Things may become big. I only worry about grandpa's reputation, our Gao family Fame," Juexin said anxiously. "I don't see that the elder brother remembers to be famous and show off his parents. It's a pity that the descendants of the Gao family are too unworthy of you. Please count how many decent people there are in the Gao family." Juemin mocked calmly, as if He himself is not a child of the Gao family. "Second cousin." Qin called out obstructively.She felt that what he said was a bit too much, and she was afraid that it would hurt Juexin's heart, so she gave him a look and asked him to stop talking. "You always say such unpleasant things. Miss Yun is here, and you don't pay attention to her. She is a guest after all, and we shouldn't neglect her like this." "Sister Qin, how do you say such words? Second cousin Where did they ever neglect me?" Yun hurriedly argued politely. "It's my fault. I only talk about myself and forget about others. Cousin Yun won't care," Juemin said apologetically.This completely changed the subject.
