Chapter 990 Don’t Reveal the Truth

Aunt Song cooked for Xia Qingran for a month, and found that there was only one girl in the house, and it seemed that this girl was used to having to stretch her hands for food and open her mouth for clothes, so she hired her to cook.

Moreover, the little girl is also very picky about her craftsmanship. It is just because there are no adults at home that she chooses to accept it temporarily. It has been a month. Seeing that the food stored in the kitchen is almost used up, the thoughts in her heart can no longer be suppressed. Living.

Aunt Song had two sons. The eldest son was drafted into the army and joined the Meng Army to guard the border. However, the eldest son's fate was not good. He only earned a centurion on the battlefield and died in the battle. The bad news came, Aunt Song He immediately fell ill.

Fortunately, she still has a younger son, and because her eldest son died in the war, there was only one adult in her family, so she was exempted from military service.

But she didn't have to serve in the military, she still had to pay taxes, and she had to do corvee labor. Her youngest son was born thin and could not be carried on her shoulders or lifted by her hands. She had even considered letting her son find someone to marry into and save her life. .

But now a little girl with no background appeared, and Aunt Song had other ideas. But just when she was about to inquire more, the little girl's mother came back, but she was a little seriously ill, and the bump on her face looked a little scary. people.

Lang Huan was not Xia Qingran. She naturally saw the calculation in Aunt Song's eyes, and then frowned, knowing that her daughter was probably being targeted. She dismissed the person on the day she came back, and then went there immediately Yaxing put the yard up for sale and agreed to hand over the house on the same day.

When Aunt Song came to the house on the pretext of leaving something behind, the house had already changed owners. Aunt Song shouted that it was a pity. If she had done it earlier, she would probably have gotten her son's wife. She could only go home dejectedly.

Aunt Song's son is called Song Shanshi. Despite his strong name, he is very thin in person, but he is very thoughtful. He hangs out all day and can get back three to five copper coins every day.

That day, when I saw my mother sighing, I asked a few words, and then I knew the whole story. Song Shanshi also complained a little about his mother. If he had told him earlier, maybe he would have become a good friend with that girl long ago, and it would have been free of charge. I got a small yard, but it’s too late to say anything now.

There were just some things that he couldn't bear to talk about. When Song Shanshi went to the car dealer to get a job the next day, he met Xia Qingran and his daughter who had rented a carriage and were going to Jiangnan. He hesitated and went home again and again to get a pack of medicinal powder. Then he also rented a carriage and followed the mother and daughter from a distance.

Lang Huan didn't know it yet, but because she felt sorry for her daughter, she asked Aunt Song to help cook, which caused trouble for herself and her daughter. Less than a day after leaving the border town, mother and daughter returned to their original place again.

But this time, fate turned to a different place. Lang Huan was sold by Song Shishan, while Xia Qingran's innocence was directly ruined by Song Shishan, and all the money of mother and daughter was also looted and became the property of the Song family. .

After Song Shishan got this windfall, he took his mother to settle down in Yucheng and used the money in his hands to buy a two-entry courtyard in Yucheng. Xia Qingran's Cuizhu's household registration fell to the Song family , became Song Shishan's wife.

Although Song Shishan had money, he also knew how to sit back and live in vain, so he bought two storefronts in Yucheng. He did not run them himself, but rented them out to collect rent, and then closed the door to live his own happy life.

And Xia Qingran also lived a miserable life. Before, she could not touch the spring water, but now she was ordered by Aunt Song to wash, cook, and serve her and Song Shanshi every day. She hated this old woman who was so kind to her before. , and even more hated Song Shanshi, the culprit who ruined her innocence and separated her mother and daughter.

It's just that she was too naive and didn't see through the calculation in Aunt Song's eyes earlier. Although Lang Huan saw through it, they didn't have enough force to protect themselves. In order to save money, they didn't hire an escort to accompany them, which gave Song Shanshi an opportunity. The mother and daughter were taken down with a packet of poison.

But it was too late to regret it now. Xia Qingran knew that resisting now would only result in a severe beating or even being forced to work hungry, so she chose to endure and lie dormant until she started to feel sick and confirmed that she was pregnant. She finally found the opportunity to leave.

After Aunt Song and Song Shanshi confirmed that Xia Qingran was pregnant, they were extremely happy. They made a table of delicious food to celebrate that day. The Song family had an heir. Song Shitou even drank too much. In the end, Aunt Song and Xia Qingran helped her back home. of the room.

In the middle of the night, Xia Qingran opened her eyes and hit Song Shanshi with a porcelain pillow under her head until her head was bleeding and bleeding. Then she quietly entered Mrs. Song's room and killed her with a kitchen knife.

After doing this, Xia Qingran sat down on the ground and cried bitterly. After she had vented enough, she began to rummage around the house and found all the banknotes that the two of them had hidden. Then she calmly shouted I took a bath, changed into clean clothes, made some dry food, and then lit the yard on fire.

Then he neatly left the second-level house and hid in a tree in the back alley, waiting for dawn.

Because it was the middle of the night and the surroundings were dark, the fire was not discovered until a long time after the fire started. He rang the gong and woke up the people around him. Everyone started to put out the fire with pots and pans, but the fire was already under control. I couldn't stand it anymore. When the fire was extinguished in the morning, only ruins were left.

Xia Qingran then jumped down from the tree and asked people all the way to find the largest escort agency in Yucheng. It happened that the escort agency wanted to escort a batch of goods to the border. Xia Qingran used the excuse that she was going to marry far away and wanted to go back to her parents' home for a funeral. She gave her money and then followed. The escort team returned to the border town.

Afraid of what would happen to Yu Cheng, she immediately returned to Xia Mansion.

Xia Meng looked at the haggard second daughter in front of him and asked with disbelief:

"Why are you here?"

"Father, you must save your daughter!"

Xia Qingran cried when she knelt down.

"Don't cry first and explain the matter clearly."

Xia Meng was not stupid, he intuitively felt that something was wrong here.

When Xia Qingran explained the cause and effect clearly, Xia Meng was shocked. His daughter and concubine were trying to kill him, but they actually let him do it quietly.

He thought that his married daughter had been defiled. Now he had killed the culprit and escaped. However, Cuizhu, the maid who had been let go in his eyes, had married into the royal family as General Meng's daughter. It was too much to think about it. absurd.

Xia Meng was ready to kill Xia Qingran, at least this way there would be less chance of exposure.

"Father, if you don't save me, General Meng will know about your marriage with your maid."

Xia Qingran saw the anger and murderous intent in his father's eyes and immediately gritted his teeth and said.

After such an experience, she was no longer the simple boudoir woman she was before. Her hands were already stained with blood. She wanted to live and live for herself.

"Okay, I'll help you! But you can never live as my daughter in this life!"
