Chapter 625 The heroine who was counterattacked (fourteen)
The speaker was a woman in her thirties or forties. She was dark and thin, with high cheekbones and shriveled cheeks. She looked like she was sarcastic.
Her eyes were full of jealousy, and there was even more malice in her eyes: "Have you forgotten? She steals people's luck. The better off she is, the more unlucky others will be!"
"Just like me, I just told a few truths and was chased and bitten by the big dog in the village."
"Aunt Feng from the west end of the village had a quarrel with Mr. He's family. She cut her hand with a knife while cutting vegetables. One finger almost cut off half of it!"
"And you, Li Xiaonuo, stole a chicken from the He family, but the chicken bones got stuck in your throat, and you almost died!"
"And, and—"
The mean woman said one sentence after another.
The people whose names were called by her also remembered the bad luck they had suffered because of Fu Bao, and their expressions changed.
"Yes! If you didn't tell me, I would have almost forgotten!"
"Yes, yes, although we are indeed at fault, we are all fellow villagers, but Erya has directly taken away our luck and made us unlucky. It's so vicious!"
"As Sanya said, real Buddhas and Bodhisattvas are compassionate, so how can they care about ordinary people?"
"Yes! Yes! Those who will be punished by Yaizi are all heretics! He Erya is a monster!"
Everyone attacked together, and the momentum frightened Mrs. Li and Yang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law into retreating.
They thought about that day a few months ago, which was also the same scene. Everyone looked at Fu Bao as if they were looking at the enemy who killed their father.
If Liang Wang hadn't come forward in the end, Fubao would have been driven out of Hejiacun even if he wasn't beaten to death by them.
Seeing this, He Yingying withdrew her steps to move forward and felt relieved——
good!
These people were successfully brainwashed by her, and the problem could be solved without her taking action again.
But a golden light flashed through Chen Fu's eyes: It turns out that what Master Huitong said was right!
Princess Liang is indeed a very lucky person. If you treat her well, you will get good luck;
And those who have malicious intentions towards her will be counterattacked!
"This noble lady, Mrs. He is really not a good person, she is a monster!"
"You, if you can see Prince Liang, you must remind him not to be harmed by the He family!"
The person who said this was the village chief of Hejia Village.
He attended private schools for several years and also went to Fucheng to gain experience.
Therefore, he thinks more and more profoundly than the villagers.
Although He Erya has left Hejia Village, her surname is He and she is a member of the He clan.
If she causes trouble outside, the entire Hejia Village will also be affected.
These days, we don't pay attention to "one person does the work and one person is responsible". Instead, we believe in continuous work and clan execution.
Prince Liang is a prince, the son of the emperor. If He Erya really used witchcraft to harm Prince Liang...
The village chief didn't dare to think about it at all. Wow, it's not enough to kill the royal family. It's not enough to kill the three clans. He probably has to kill the nine clans!
His legs couldn't help but tremble, and the village chief couldn't find a way to break the situation.
He was a small village chief who had never even been to the capital, so how could he go and remind King Liang?
He could only place his hope in the nobleman from Beijing.
"presumptuous!"
Chen Fu had already collected his thoughts, and his face was full of solemnity, "Who gave you the courage to disrespect Princess Liang?"
"Also, who said Princess Liang is a monster?"
Chen Fu's eyes scanned the entire audience, and everyone who made eye contact with him lowered their heads or retreated into the crowd.
But it was the mean woman who shouted at the beginning who had the courage to shout: "My lord, we just said it -"
With so many people testifying, why can't it be determined that He Erya is a monster?
"You said it yourself, it was you who had malicious intentions."
"Yes, but not all Bodhisattvas and Buddhas are compassionate -" the mean woman came up with this sentence that He Yingying used to criticize Fu Bao.
"Ha! You only know that Buddha is compassionate, haven't you heard that Buddhism also has the wrath of King Kong?"
"You have evil thoughts towards the good people in the world, and the good people in the world will not punish you, but if you try to harm the good people, you will naturally be repelled!"
Chen Fu scolded coldly.
Mrs. Li and Yang, who had just been frightened by the excited villagers and shrank into a corner, keenly grasped the key point: "Tired, are you a good person in your life?"
Are you talking about their Fu Bao?
"That's right, Master Huitong of Fajue Temple is the world's number one Taoist master. He personally met Princess Liang and said that she was blessed with a rich golden light of merit and virtue and that she was the reincarnation of a good person from many generations of good deeds!"
Wow!
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.
"Isn't it right? Erya is actually the reincarnation of a good man?"
"She is not an ordinary good person, but a good person who has been doing good deeds for many lifetimes. She has done good deeds for countless lifetimes, and only then has she accumulated merit!"
"Oh my god, no wonder she has such good luck. People often say that good things are rewarded for good people. She must have done good deeds for several lifetimes to have such good luck in this life!"
"...No way! Is she really not a monster? Instead, she is a good person who has lived a long life?"
"Didn't you listen to what the noble man from the capital said personally? Even the eminent Buddhist monks have criticized it, and you still don't believe it?"
"Oh, oh, oh, we offended Erya so badly before, and we still have to drive her out, we, we won't suffer retribution!"
"...I'm just telling you why our village has been so unlucky recently. When it's time to harvest the wheat, it's just one day away. The wheat to be dried has been soaked by the heavy rain! We are being punished by God!"
The villagers were talking incessantly, and some people who were good at association attributed all their recent unhappiness to offending the lucky ones!
For a time, they felt no regrets.
I hate those people who stirred up trouble in the first place.
"From the He Sheng family, you are the most arrogant. You cause quarrels between the east and west families every day, and Fu Bao backfires. You don't say you should reflect on yourself, and you slander Fu Bao as a monster!"
Someone recalled the original situation and pointed the finger at the mean woman.
Of course, the real initiator is He Yingying.
But everyone has the nature to bully the weak and fear the strong. He Yingying didn't have to do it at the beginning. Now she has opened a shop and has established a relationship with the nobles of the city.
He Yingying, and even the entire He family, were no longer someone ordinary villagers like them could easily offend.
If you don’t dare to target the chief culprit, then you should retreat to the next best thing and push out He Sheng’s wife, a foul-mouthed woman, and scold her.
The mean woman, He Sheng's wife, couldn't help but panic when she saw that everyone was targeting her.
"me……"
Her mouth was dry, and her usually sharp tongue was now stammering.
"It's not me, it's not me! It's, it's -"
In desperation, she tried her best to defend herself and involuntarily turned her attention to He Yingying.
Useless things!
Is this scary?
He Yingying cursed secretly.
After coughing a few times, He Yingying winked at He Sheng's family, not forgetting to nod the dilapidated courtyard of He's family with her chin.
He Shengjia's brain also reacts quickly, or perhaps at a critical moment, she stimulated the potential of her brain.
Gu Zhu
With He Yingying's hint, she suddenly remembered the second reason why He Yingying denied that Fubao was a lucky star -
"What kind of good person has he been doing for many lifetimes? If He Erya is really a good person and has done good deeds for several lifetimes, and now he is reincarnated, he should find a rich family!"
He Shengjia frowned, looking unbelieving.
She moved her hand in a circle in the air, and everyone's eyes followed her hand.
As a result, everyone saw the He family's not-so-exquisite courtyard and several brick and tile houses.
Perhaps, the He family's family situation has been greatly improved after Fu Bao was born, and they are living better than most other families in the village.
However, no matter how good their life is, they are still just ordinary farmers in remote mountain villages.
Not to mention compared with the rich and nobles, the He family is also far behind the rich households and officials in the city.
This is inconsistent with the Buddhist saying that by doing good deeds in this life and accumulating virtue, you will have a good pregnancy in the next life.
It doesn’t quite fit in with the setting of He Erya, a good person who has been blessed with meritorious deeds for many generations.
Chen Fu:...Hey, that seems to be the truth.
A good person should be reincarnated into a good family.
"Does a rich family mean a good family?"
At this time, the little girl who had been standing behind Chen Fu without speaking suddenly spoke.
The moment she opened her mouth, she immediately drew everyone's attention to herself.
Seeing everyone looking over, she bowed slightly and did not continue speaking in a hurry. Instead, she saluted Mrs. Li, Yang and others first.
"Slave Ji Xiang, you are the little maid beside the princess. On the order of the princess, you are here to visit some elders and take you to the capital!"
When Mrs. Li heard that the person was sent by her precious granddaughter, she was overjoyed.
In fact, when she heard Chen Fu talk about "Princess Liang's family" just now, although she had high hopes, she still felt uneasy.
Chen Fu only mentioned Princess Liang, but did not indicate that he was sent by Princess Liang.
Moreover, when he mentioned Princess Liang, his tone was respectful, but did not imply much intimacy.
Mrs. Li couldn't help but wonder, was this person sent by Fubao?
In other words, is this person from Fubao?!
He might be a servant of the palace, or someone who curry favor with the palace.
She was not Fubao's slave, and she still refused to reveal her identity, so Mrs. Li felt uneasy.
The auspicious words succeeded in appeasing Mrs. Li.
This little maid was Fu Bao's slave, and she came to visit them on Fu Bao's order.
Alas, Fu Bao is still alive and she really became Princess Liang.
She is indeed a good granddaughter whom she has loved for more than ten years. When she has a future, she immediately comes to see her elders like them.
As for not receiving any news from Fubao for several months, Mrs. Li can also understand——
"Well, after all, she is a newly married bride, and she is still married to a royal family. Fu Bao is alone, so he must slowly adapt to it!"
"After establishing a firm foothold in my husband's family, Fubao can be free to take care of his relatives back home!"
Thinking like this, Mrs. Li felt a little sorry for her precious granddaughter: "This child must have suffered a lot of grievances in the capital!"
"Even if you are lucky, you are just being someone's wife. How can you be at home and feel comfortable?"
Mrs. Li was only concerned about her heartache, and for a moment she forgot that she was still confronting the villagers.
It's still auspicious and I haven't forgotten the business.
After giving gifts to Mrs. Li, Yang and others, she continued the topic: "Are wealthy families really good families?"
"Why is it bad? You don't have to worry about food, clothing, or hard work, and you can still have people to take care of you!"
He Shengjia's face was full of envy and jealousy, and his words were full of yearning and longing.
"Yes! How nice it is to live in a wealthy family, with popular food, hot drinks, three wives and four concubines, and hordes of slaves..."
The villagers also agreed.
Ji Xiang shook his head, "You only see the good things about rich people, but you don't see the dangers of rich people!"
"Don't talk about others, just talk about me. My grandfather was once the Minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he was a third-rank official. My father was also a court official. He came from a scholarly family and had been an official for many generations!"
"But what am I now? A palace slave!"
Ji Xiang revealed his shortcomings on his own, but there was not much sadness on his face.
It seems that she has already become accustomed to her identity.
Think about it, in the past ten years, many wealthy families have been overthrown due to the struggle for the throne.
The daughter of a noble prince who was still a high-ranking prince the day before was thrown into the dust today. She was either fined and confiscated and became a palace slave, or she was sent to the Jiaofang Department.
All of them have been relegated to lowly status, and their children and grandchildren will be slaves and maids for the rest of their lives.
It is extremely difficult to become a free citizen.
When everyone heard this, they were all shocked.
Do wealthy people still have such dangers?
They simply couldn't imagine that noble people who were once so high would one day fall into the abyss.
Servant?
Official prostitute?
Actually he is not as good as ordinary people.
At least they, the mountain villagers, are still free, have good citizenship, and have the opportunity to transcend social classes.
"Even if you are not overturned, you may not be happy and peaceful if you are in a deep house."
Ji Xiang continued, "Wives and concubines are at odds with each other, concubines are fighting against each other, and even flesh and blood can turn against each other!"
"With all the filth, how can it compare to the harmony and warmth of ordinary people's homes?"
"Our princess just said that she is extremely lucky that she was reincarnated into the He family. Not only do she have parents who love her, but she also has a grandmother and grandfather who treat her as a treasure!"
"The brothers and sisters are also in harmony. She grew up carefree. All she experienced and felt was beauty and happiness!"
"If there is an afterlife, she is still willing to be a daughter to her parents and a granddaughter to her grandmother!"
These auspicious words are not fabricated out of thin air.
He Tiantian sent her to Hejia Village with Chen Fu, the steward of Cheng'en Palace, just to make her say these words in public.
After all, it doesn’t make sense for the original owner to have the good fortune of having a koi but to be reborn into a poor family.
And He Yingying grasped this point, used it as one of the reasons to criticize the original owner, and successfully turned the original owner from a lucky star into a monster!
He Tiantian asked Jixiang to say this to defend the reincarnation of the original owner.
Ahem, this is also a bit of a quibble.
However, the original character's character is that of a koi girl who "makes all her wishes come true".
He Tiantian said that she did not want to go to a complicated wealthy family, but liked the simplicity and happiness of a farm family, so she was reincarnated into the He family, which is considered to be in line with the setting.
In this way, this loophole was barely patched up!
"Yes, not all wealthy families are good. Sometimes, they are not as happy as ordinary people like us."
"Although the He family is a little poorer, Mrs. Li really loves Fubao. Tsk tsk, Fubao has never suffered hardship since she was a child, and the whole family treats her as a treasure!"
"Yes! Yes! If I have done good deeds and can choose the next life, I must find a good family who loves me and treats me as their own!"
Ji Xiang's words were actually recognized by everyone...
