For example, those few houses in Beiyuan are filled with old relatives.
As we get older, we naturally don’t sleep much anymore.
In Yingjuan Courtyard, the fifth old man and his family, except for a few young children, were basically all present.
There was an angry fifth old man sitting on the seat, and a weeping fifth old lady next to him.
Sitting below are their two sons.
There are two brothers, one resembles his father, as fat as a pig's head, and the other resembles his mother, unfeeling and unsympathetic.
I used to be called by my nickname from the fields, but after my parents went to live with my eldest uncle Shang Laogong, I naturally got the nickname.
They are cousins to the current Duke of Guo, and they are of the same generation as "Yu". One is named "Ding" and the other is named "An".
The implication is that I hope both of them can live a peaceful and peaceful life.
It's a pity that although he has a reputation, he is not honest.
The two brothers usually hang out in Qinlou and Chuguan, or hang out in gambling dens and restaurants.
Relying on the name of the Duke's Mansion, he frequently acted arrogantly and arrogantly outside.
Although it is not to the point of causing a life-threatening lawsuit, it is not much better.
My parents found me early in the morning, and I was naturally very sleepy.
Especially Shang Yuding, who didn't come back from his mischief outside until dawn.
Now I was called over before I even touched the bed.
Therefore, the yawns came one after another, which made the fifth old man very angry.
Shang Yuding was hit with a "snap" slap, which made Shang Yuding dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
Then he said fiercely.
"Nothing! Look at what your cousin is like now. He is obviously of the same blood, but he can firmly hold the position of Duke of the country. Which one of his sons and daughters is not up to expectations? Look at you again, the lives of your sons and daughters.
If you don't come out, you're still hanging around outside all day long. Is this dead look just for me to see?"
The fifth old man had a bad temper. When he went crazy, even his own son would scold him casually.
Shang Yuding felt guilty and did not dare to disobey me, so he had to endure it silently.
He reached out and touched his swollen cheek, lowered his head and bared his teeth.
Seeing how unsatisfactory he was, the fifth old man became more and more angry and dissatisfied.
Mrs. Wu Lao was moaning beside her and before she could stop crying, she was immediately scolded by him.
"Cry, cry, cry. I don't know if your husband is dead, or if you are a distant relative. Is it worth it for you to cry here again and again?"
The distant relative mentioned by the fifth old man was the steward Qi Er who was punished with fifty military sticks the night before.
When he was thrown back to Yingjuan Courtyard, he was hanging with only one breath.
So I couldn't get over it until this morning, so I just died.
Now the body is still standing stiffly in his own room, but the people who live in the same room with him are so frightened that they dare not go in.
I squatted on the porch and waited for the master to speak.
Mrs. Wu was shocked when her husband scolded her like this.
Even though I had countless grievances, I didn’t dare to say anything more.
He wrapped his left index finger with a handkerchief to wipe his tears and stuffed it into his mouth, gritting his teeth and not daring to cry any more.
Shang Yu'an on the side looked at this scene, his eyebrows turned and he agreed with his father.
"Dad, this kid Liu Lang doesn't take us in the fifth room seriously. After all, you are also his fifth uncle. Even if Qi Er has any irregularities, he should be sent back to us to deal with it.
, he was quite good, he was beaten with a military stick when he came up, and I heard that he beat Qi Er until there was no good spot on his body. Isn’t this a slap in the face of our fifth house?"
"That's right, grandpa wants to vent his anger for us in the fifth house this time. We don't have to be pressured by the people in the next door. The grandson originally had his eye on a position a few days ago and wanted to ask his uncle to arrange it.
Well, huh, I was cut off by my third cousin."
"After all, isn't it just that we have only one grandson in the fifth house, so he is easy to bully? Right, Wulang."
Upon hearing this, Shang Wulang nodded immediately.
A face full of indignation.
The fifth old man always doted on his only grandson, so when he saw that he had been wronged, he was naturally very unhappy.
Shang Yu'an and his son Shang Wulang can sing double recitals.
Every word you say and I say makes this fire grow bigger and bigger.
Although they, father and son, were not very successful people, they had lived in the house for so many years and they still knew exactly who was in the yard.
It would be best if we could use this matter to cause trouble, especially if it makes Shang Yu feel relieved and guilty.
In this way, Shang Wulang's errand will have a chance to be completed.
Beating a servant to death is not a big deal.
After all, in the deep mansion, who doesn't have the blood of their servants on their hands?
But since someone died, we have to find some benefits to make up for it.
No one in the audience really felt sad for Qi Er's death, they were all thinking about how to make up for the lost "face".
And most of the wives in the fifth house are very submissive.
Facing my father-in-law and husband, I dare not say anything.
"The third brother is so much better than us. I see that the second son and the third son together are not as good as our fifth son. It doesn't matter if we have many children and grandchildren. They are not all trash."
The fifth old man said he disliked it very much.
Shang Yu'an and Shang Wulang looked at each other and saw some excitement in each other's eyes.
So he hurriedly added to the fire and said.
"Grandpa, I heard that Liulang went out to the camp on the outskirts of the city yesterday, and he has not returned today. Then there is only that little girl Du Shi in Dongyuan. Let's take Qi Er's body there. It's scary.
Don’t worry about scaring her to death!”
"When the time comes, let's ask the eldest brother and his wife to come over. Naturally, Wu Lang's errand will be settled."
After hearing this, the fifth old man also felt that it made sense.
So he stood up as soon as he slapped the table and said to his children and grandchildren.
"You're right! It's not good that people in our fifth room are dead, and the two of them in Dongyuan are still sleeping soundly! Let's go!"
With a wave of his hand, he walked out "majesticly".
Following closely behind were Shang Yu'an, Shang Wulang and his son, as well as their wives.
As for Mrs. Wu, she was interested in following along and causing a scene.
But in the final analysis, the deceased Qi Er was a relative of hers, so her sadness must be more sincere.
On the contrary, Shang Yuding, who was slapped by the Fifth Old Lady, rubbed his cheek and said to the Fifth Old Lady.
"Mom, if nothing happens, I'll go back and rest."
This way of not caring about the matter made Mrs. Wu feel heartbroken.
He who hates iron and cannot turn it into steel said.
"As an elder brother, you don't want to find a way out for your younger brother and nephew, so you just hang out outside all day long. Is it appropriate?"
