Chapter 204 Revisiting the old place (2)
Yu Qian'er wept silently, not daring to cry out loud for fear of disturbing Ji Cheng.In fact, it doesn't bother Ji Cheng at all, she rarely wakes up.

Before Shen Che left, he gave Liu Ye'er a box of medicine pills, which were life-sustaining pills in the palace. After taking them, they could prolong their lives for a few days, but the mechanism was to make people fall into an endless deep sleep and make the body's metabolism infinite. Slow down to save your life.

"Sister Liu Ye, do you think Mr. Lang can find a way to save the young mistress?" Yu Qian'er asked, sobbing.

Liu Ye'er herself was also crying, and she heard the imperial physician and several doctors who invited her say that they were all about preparing for the funeral.Although she also had luck in her heart, she was afraid that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, but when Yu Qian'er asked this question, Liu Ye'er had to comfort her.

When the two maids were sitting and weeping in the cold night, Shen Jing was standing at the courtyard gate at the foot of Jiuliyuan Mountain. He used wine to build up his courage and mustered up a lot of courage to come here.

With Ji Cheng being so seriously ill, everyone in the Shen family naturally got the news. When Shen Jing knew that Ji Cheng was going to die soon, he couldn't believe his ears at all.

Shen Jing took a deep breath in his heart, he had seen his second elder brother Shen Che's cold treatment of Ji Cheng a few days ago and kept it in his heart. If he hadn't treated her badly, how could Ji Cheng die at such a young age? Jade death?

If Ji Cheng had a good life, Shen Jing might not miss her so much.However, Shen Jing was honest and honest, and always felt that it was because he didn't try his best to win in front of his mother that he made her marry his second brother, and finally died in depression.

Shen Jing also knew that he should avoid suspicion because Ji Cheng was his second sister-in-law, but he was afraid that if he didn't come tonight, he might never see Ji Cheng again in this life, so he mustered up the courage to come here.

When Liu Ye'er saw Shen Jing, she was very surprised and called "Four Young Masters".

"Why is Fourth Young Master here at this time? Is the banquet over?" Yu Qian'er asked.

Shen Jing said: "No. I'll come to see the second sister-in-law, how is her illness?"

Liu Ye'er looked at Shen Jing with some embarrassment, it would be okay if her husband was here at the moment, but if Shen Che was not there, it would be inconvenient for Shen Jing to enter Ji Cheng's bedroom, and it was not suitable for etiquette.But Liu Ye'er also knew that Shen Jing's trip was probably to see Ji Cheng for the last time, so she couldn't bear to refuse him.Because of Shen Jing's thoughts on Ji Cheng, Liu Ye'er, as a big girl who follows Ji Cheng every day, can still see a little bit.

However, Shen Jing didn't give Liu Ye'er a chance to refuse, he just said: "I'll go in and see her." After speaking, he walked past Liu Ye'er, Liu Ye'er couldn't stop her.

Seeing Ji Cheng's dying state, Shen Jing's eye circles turned red in an instant, and everyone said that a man does not flick his tears lightly, but he didn't reach the point of sadness.Shen Jing didn't dare to stay inside for a long time, only stood for a while, then turned and walked out: "Where is the second brother? Is he not there?"

Liu Yeer nodded.

Shen Jing felt more and more worthless for Ji Cheng, if he had married her back then, he would have treated her like a jewel, and would never have made her so sick at such a young age.

However, after Shen Jing left Jiuliyuan, he was in a daze, unable to distinguish his direction, and he didn't return to Tiemao Alley until very late.

"Why did you come back so late? I asked the girl to look everywhere but you couldn't find it." Li Rui stayed up all this time, waiting for Shen Jing.

How could Shen Jing care about Li Rui, he was feeling sad right now.

When Li Rui saw Shen Jing like this, he immediately became angry: "I'm talking to you, are you deaf?"

Shen Jing glanced at Li Rui, turned around and walked out.When they first got married, Li Rui looked pretty good, but after getting along with her now, Shen Jing felt that if she wasn't called the daughter of the Hou family, she would be a street shrew based on her temperament, which was intolerable.

Li Rui chased Shen Jing for two steps, but was persuaded by Lan's mother beside her.This mother Lan was brought from her mother's house when Li Rui sneaked back to Tiemao Alley last time.

"Young Mistress, don't quarrel with Mr. Lang right now. I think Mr. Lang's expression is very wrong. He is unhappy, and you have a violent temper. No one will see the joke." Lan's mother persuaded.

"What can he be unhappy about? I'm afraid he's drunk too much and thinks I'll lose my color after giving birth." She still looked like she was pregnant with a child, no wonder she would say that Shen Jing despised her.

Mother Lan said: "Mr. Lang is not that kind of person. I have to find someone to ask where Mr. Mr. went up tonight. Today is the fourth girl's marriage. It is not supposed to look like this."

Li Rui nodded, and only found out the next day that Shen Jing had gone to Jiuliyuan.

Li Rui felt unlucky and said: "Fortunately, he lost his temper and left as soon as he entered the door yesterday, otherwise I don't know if he will give me his sickness."

Lan's mother sighed: "Young Mistress, don't say that, it's your sister-in-law after all."

Li Rui curled her lips, and then remembered again: "What did he go to Jiuliyuan last night?"

When he met Shen Jing at night, Li Rui asked directly in front of him: "Second brother is not here, why are you going to Jiuli courtyard by yourself?"

Shen Jing raised his eyelids and said, "After eating wine, I happened to walk there, seeing that sister Cheng was going to die, so I went to see her." Blame my second brother, Ji Cheng is so sick, he is still not by her side, so he only thinks that Ji Cheng is still his cousin, his second brother doesn't cherish her, but he, the cousin, loves her sister's.

Li Rui's eyelids twitched, and the words "Sister Cheng" exploded in her mind.

The word "Sister Chen" has always been firmly engraved in Li Rui's mind, because she hasn't met any "Sister Chen" for so long, so she just endured it.

But today I realized that it was not "Sister Chen" at all, but "Sister Cheng".

Li Rui exploded immediately: "What sister Cheng? That's your second sister-in-law. You two are so shameless!" Li Rui said angrily, even spit on Shen Jing's face, "I'll just say what you did to me So indifferent, it turns out that you are thinking about your second sister-in-law. How shameless are you two goddamn adulterers and prostitutes? Come on, come and reason with my ancestors!"

Li Rui cried and cursed, and pulled Shen Jing vigorously to go outside.

Shen Jing felt that Li Rui was like a lunatic: "It's unreasonable!" Shen Jing shook his hand vigorously, and Li Rui, who was pulling him, was thrown to the ground.Although Shen Jing felt a little guilty because he fell in love with Ji Cheng, he thought he was walking upright and sitting upright, and he didn't have any issues with Ji Cheng, so naturally he refused to admit his mistakes and give in.What's more, if he has the slightest weakness at this moment, Li Rui will definitely feel that there is a ghost in his heart.Therefore, Shen Jing rebuked Li Rui confidently and said: "What nonsense are you talking about?! My second sister-in-law is seriously ill. I'll go and see what's wrong with her? Why do you say that I miss my second sister-in-law? Do you think everyone else is like you?"

Li Rui felt wronged to the sky, but was reprimanded by Shen Jing in this way, so he simply sat on the ground and couldn't get up, and began to cry: "My heart is dirty? Shen Jing, do you still have a conscience? You What did you do that you still have the face to scold me?"

Lan's mother saw that the commotion was really bad, so she hurried forward to help Li Rui up: "Lang Jun is right, young mistress don't think too much, second young mistress is so sick that she doesn't look like a human being, Lang Jun just went to see Her." Lan's mother immediately pointed out that Ji Cheng had passed away not long ago, and even if Li Rui made trouble, she could do anything, but in the end, it was not her husband and wife that hurt her relationship.

But how could Li Rui be so sensible?Ever since she married Shen Jing, she saw that he was handsome and gentle, so she had her heart attached to him. There was no room for him to have other people in his heart: "Damn! Her illness may be caused by her uncle and sister-in-law heart disease."

"Your mouth is really dirty, you should ask your mother to take you back and teach you the principles of life." Shen Jing was trembling with anger from Li Rui.

"My mouth is dirty? My mouth is not as dirty as your heart." Li Rui yelled and pushed Mother Lan away, stood up and hit Shen Jing.

Shen Jing slapped Li Rui on the face with his backhand: "You are simply crazy."

Li Rui was completely stunned by the beating, covering his face and looking at Shen Jing in disbelief: "You hit me?!"

"Not only will I beat you, I will divorce you. A woman like you who is 'talkative' should have divorced a long time ago. If you say I'm fine, now the dirty water is poured on the second sister-in-law. It's crazy to sow dissension." Shen Jing said.

Lan's mother hurried up to separate Shen Jing and Li Rui: "Mr. Lang! Even if the young lady is right, you shouldn't do it!"

Lan's mother turned her head to look at Li Rui's face, but after a while it was swollen up to the height of the steamed bun, which shows that the slap was very hard.

Li Rui's tears flowed like rain: "Divorce? Okay, I've wanted to make up with you a long time ago. But before that, we have to understand everything. It's my fault. It was you who committed adultery with your second sister-in-law!"

When Shen Jing heard the word "adultery", he wanted to slap Li Rui again, but Mother Lan quickly blocked his hand: "Mr.

Shen Jing couldn't explain clearly to the woman, so he turned around and walked out, then turned around and said: "Whatever you want. In short, I am determined to divorce my wife."

Li Rui cried like hell when she heard this, no one could stop her, she cried and ran straight to the old lady's Rui Yingtang.

Shen Xun just got married yesterday, and many guests have not left today, when Li Rui walked through the Qing Garden crying, everyone who saw her looked at her in amazement.

Li Rui didn't care about this, she only knew that she had been wronged so much and had to find a place to complain.

As soon as Li Rui entered the gate of Ruiyingtang, he cried out: "Old ancestor, old ancestor, you have to uphold justice for me!"

The old lady hurriedly said, "Ah, what's the matter, A Rui?"

Although Li Rui lost his mind a long time ago, seeing that the old lady had guests in the hall, he didn't dare to shout and just kept crying.

Seeing this, the female relatives who were guests hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Only then did the old lady softly comfort Li Rui and said, "What's the matter? But Ah Jing bullied you? Tell me if you have any grievances. If he bullies you, I will be the first to not forgive him."

Only then did Li Rui weep and say: "Your Majesty, he and the second sister-in-law don't know each other. Ah Xun got married last night. Seeing that nobody cared about him, he secretly went to the Jiuli courtyard to have a private meeting with the second sister-in-law."

Li Rui's words were really heart-breaking. What was supposed to be a normal thing was turned into a secret lover's meeting by her.But why did she insist that there is a relationship between Ji Cheng and Shen Jing?
This is because everyone knows that Shen Che neglected Ji Cheng.Li Rui took it for granted that Ji Cheng's boudoir was empty, so he couldn't help seducing his brother-in-law.Maybe it was because Shen Che knew something that he snubbed a beauty like Ji Cheng.

The old lady squinted her eyes when she heard Li Rui's words, and winked at Jinxiu who was next to her, and Jinxiu went out to send away the idlers in the yard.

Li Rui continued to sob and said: "I just said a few words to him, and he hit me." Li Rui turned the swollen side of his face to the old lady to show her, "Isn't this a ghost? "

The old lady's voice was no longer soft, and she said calmly: "A Rui, the consequences of what you said are very serious, do you know?"

Li Rui was stunned, she hadn't thought about the consequences of this incident yet.She only knew that Shen Jing was going to divorce her, and she couldn't care about the consequences.

"Do you have any evidence to prove that they don't know?" the old lady asked, "I just went to see Cheng girl yesterday morning. She is already dead, and she is relying on the life extension pill to keep her life alive." , why is it in your mouth that she was having a private meeting with Ah Jing last night?"

Li Rui was taken aback again. She knew that Ji Cheng was very ill, but she didn't know that he was so ill. She thought it was Ji Cheng who wanted to be lazy, and that's why people spread the word.She also disliked the bad luck of going to see patients, so she only asked Mother Lan to take a look at Jiuliyuan, she had never been there before.

When the old lady saw Li Rui's appearance, she knew that she had no evidence.In this world, fire can never be covered with paper. There are hundreds of people in the Shen family, and there has never been any news about Ji Cheng and Shen Jing, that is, there is nothing about Ji Cheng's indignity.

Ji Cheng himself is easy to be criticized because of his good looks, so he also pays great attention to the distance from his uncle in his daily life, and has never said any unpleasant words.

Besides, the old lady can trust Ji Cheng as a person, and it doesn't mean that she is partial, but she really doesn't think that Ji Cheng will abandon Shen Che and leave Shen Jing. Is there something wrong with Shen Jing?

"Grandfather, don't you believe me?" Li Rui said weepingly, she couldn't believe that the old lady didn't believe her.

The old lady was really bored with Li Rui, and even thought of Ji Lan.She, the third daughter-in-law, has never done anything good. Look at the daughter-in-law she picked for Shen Jing, she dared to frame her husband and second sister-in-law without any evidence, as if she wished she could pour dirty water all over the world.

"A Rui, I've already said that this matter is very serious. You have nothing to prove. How can I trust you? To catch a thief is to take the stolen goods." The old lady said.

Li Rui cried: "I'm not talking nonsense, old ancestor, Mr. Lang was drunk, and in the middle of the night he was still calling Sister Cheng. I didn't know it was Second Sister-in-law, but today he admitted it himself."

The old lady was startled, she didn't expect Shen Jing to still miss Ji Cheng.A few years ago when Ji Cheng lived in the Shen Mansion, Shen Jing did have some differences with this cousin, but there was absolutely no relationship between the two, because Shen Jing spent more than half of his time studying at Dongshan Academy, and the old lady knew about this. .She just didn't expect that after so many years, Shen Jing still had Ji Cheng in his heart.

"These are all your one-sided words. Since you want to talk about the two of them, you have to ask them to come face to face. I'm afraid Ah Cheng won't be able to do it, so you are free to say it. I will ask Ah Jing to come over and ask." The old lady said .

Shen Jing arrived soon, the old lady repeated Li Rui's words, Shen Jing almost wished to kill Li Rui: "I drank wine last night and passed by the Jiuli Courtyard, thinking that my second sister-in-law was so sick that even Lin The imperial doctors were helpless. After all, we were cousins. I was afraid that we might not see each other for the last time. That's why I went up. Li Rui was simply making trouble out of nothing. She didn't even bother about her second sister-in-law's illness, and she didn't have any family affection Said, I went to see it, but she wanted to frame me and say that I had committed adultery with my second sister-in-law. My ancestor and grandson also want you to be the master for me. Who would dare to have a daughter-in-law like her? "

The old lady sighed and said: "I went to see Cheng girl yesterday morning, I'm sorry to see you." The old lady wanted to cry when she mentioned Ji Cheng. deep.

Li Rui soon realized that the old lady didn't believe her at all, and she was still protecting her own grandson: "Why didn't you say that you were drunk and called Sister Cheng in the middle of the night?"

Shen Jing said seriously: "I don't know what I said in the middle of the night, so I can only rely on you to talk nonsense. I have never seen a woman like you. If you insist on framing me and my second sister-in-law, you will be happy, right?"

"I'm not." Li Rui began to cry, even she didn't know what she wanted at the moment.Even if she wins, it doesn't matter, Ji Cheng is going to die anyway, but she and Shen Jing no longer have a husband and wife relationship to speak of.If she loses, she will look even more human inside and out.

The old lady said: "Ah Rui, I'm still the same old saying, catch thieves and take stolen goods. Today's matter is your fault, your second sister-in-law is already sick like that, what are you trying to do like this? Think about me carefully." Say it. Our Shen family has never had such a scandal in the past hundred years, so don't just talk nonsense just because you are happy." After the old lady finished talking about Li Rui, she turned her head and said to Shen Jing, "You too , It’s because your wife is wrong, you just say she’s fine, why beat someone? Men in our family are not allowed to beat their daughter-in-law.”

Shen Jing said: "Old Ancestor, you don't even know how bad her words are. You are always suspicious."

"Okay, Ah Jing, I'm not talking about you, you don't just focus on the errands of the Imperial Academy all day long, you should spend more time with A Rui." The old lady began to make peace.
