Chapter 126
Ding Qun sees that Jun'er is upset, and his mood becomes more and more depressed.
Meng Cuiqiao said: "Think carefully about where the pendant fell."
Ding Qun said, "I've been wearing it all the time..."
Meng Cuiqiao sighed: "It must be that you have been out of your mind for several days, and you don't know when things are lost... Wait a minute, when you said that you left Yuyin Pavilion, you gave all your belongings to Miss Shan, did you even take the pendant with you?" Gave it to her?"
Ding Qun said anxiously: "The pendant was given by Juner, how could I give it away easily? Besides, I clearly remember that I never took the pendant..." Suddenly remembered, before going to Yuyin Pavilion for the last time that day, it seemed He also touched the white jade peony pendant, but he never touched it again after returning.
Meng Cuiqiao said: "Didn't you hit that Mr. Jia? Could it be that time?"
Ding Qun frowned and recalled that when he slapped Mr. Jia with his backhand, it seemed that something really flew out, but he just talked to Shanshan and didn't pay attention to it. Now that he thinks about it, the thing that flew out was probably sent by Jun'er White jade peony pendant!
Meng Cuiqiao said: "After such a long time, you didn't realize that the pendant was missing at all. It's not wrong for you to be mad at you."
Ding Qun didn't want to listen to his nagging, and said, "I'll go get it right away."
Unexpectedly, Meng Cuiqiao followed him, saying that he should not have made a decision on his own and let Shanshan down, and that he should not have been careless and annoyed Chu Juncuo...he chattered endlessly, attracting the attention of passers-by.
Ding Qun was upset, but he didn't dare to talk back, so he walked all the way to Yuyin Pavilion in embarrassment.
The janitor at the gate wanted to greet him, but seeing a handsome young man in white beside him was eloquent, training Lu Xianggong like a child, and it was difficult to intervene for a while, so he said something to the two in silence. People greeted them, and saw Ding Qun go straight up to the third floor, and reminded him: "Mr. Lu, are you looking for Miss Bai? She has gone to Mr. Jia's house."
Ding Qun felt pain in his heart, and said in a low voice, "I left something in Miss Bai's room..."
Shanshan's room was the same as before, but the beauty had gone, Ding Qun's nose was sore, and he rubbed his eyes with his hand.
Seeing him like this, Meng Cuiqiao stopped talking.
When Shanshan left, she had cleaned up the house, and the items in the house were clear at a glance, but how could there be a white jade peony pendant?
The two searched for a while, and Meng Cuiqiao said: "The house has been tidied up, and Miss Shan must have seen it and picked it up."
Ding Qun had no choice but to look for the bustard again.
The bustard saw him coming suddenly, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, why did you come here now? I saw that you had been missing for half a month, and you said that you didn't want to redeem Peony. I can't delay her. Just three days ago, I have sent her to Young Master Jia's house, please don't blame me."
Ding Qun said: "I don't blame my mother...I left something at Mudan's place, and I want to ask her to take it back...Mama, how can I get to Jia's Mansion?"
The bustard heard from Yingling that before Lu Xianggong left, he gave all the valuables on his body to the girl. He was a kind and righteous person. She was also moved when she heard it. Now that Ding Qun said that he came to get things, he secretly said: "Could it be that after a month, he suddenly felt worthless and wanted to get the item back?" He said with a smile, "What is so valuable, so important?"
Ding Qun said: "It's not very valuable...it's a gift from a friend, it's very important."
Seeing that his eyes were red, the bustard just heard a report from someone saying that he had entered Bai Mudan's room. She must have been thinking about others after seeing things. She was a little soft-hearted, so she told him the address of Jia's house and said, "You must be careful." Don't tell anyone I told you."
Jia's house is not far from Yuyin Pavilion, the two arrived there not long after walking, Meng Cuiqiao said: "You go in by yourself, I will wait for you outside."
Ding Qun worried and asked: "Will Miss Bai annoy me..." It is inconvenient to go through the main entrance and climb over the wall to enter the house.
At that time, the sky was dark and the house was quiet, there were houses everywhere, and lanterns were hung in front of the houses. I remembered that Mr. Jia had said earlier that he had arranged a separate courtyard for Shanshan, but he didn't know where the other courtyard was.
Although this Jia's mansion is not small, it is not a big mansion, and there are not many servants. Ding Qun walked around the house a few times, and occasionally saw one or two young maids talking and laughing in the house, but none of the servants patrolling the house saw it. .
After turning around for a long time, suddenly two young women came to the end of the corridor, and Ding Qun hurriedly hid behind the pillars.
The two wives were walking and talking, and the young woman in red among them said: "The whole thing is so charming, why does my husband like this?"
Another young woman in yellow sighed: "Now my husband only favors her..."
The young woman in red said: "Sanggong is just greedy for novelty, hum, after a few days, you will get tired of it."
The young woman in yellow said: "But that woman is quite beautiful."
The young woman in red said disdainfully: "So what about beauty? She's not just a lowly servant girl who can do everything she can!"
Ding Qun heard that they were talking about Shan Shan, and how could they hold back their rude words, so he jumped out, pointed at the second wife and shouted: "What are you talking about?"
Seeing him appearing suddenly, the second woman had a ferocious face, and said that it was a live yaksha approaching the door. She was so frightened that she wanted to open her mouth to scream, but the other party covered her mouth, and could only utter "uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu".
Ding Qun said: "Is the woman you mentioned just now Miss Baimudanbai? Tell me, where is she now?" He was afraid that the two women's "huh huh" would attract people from the Meng residence, and the hands covering their mouths would be even worse. I tried hard.
At this time Meng Cuiqiao also came. He waited outside for half a day without seeing Ding Qun turn around, thinking: "He must have a lot to say when he sees his sweetheart." But then he thought: "He won't even find someone See you." Feeling worried, he came in to have a look, but when he got nearby, he heard Ding Qun ask the second wife where Bai Mudan was, but he pressed the second wife's mouth to keep her from opening, what a mess!Busy walked over and said: "You press their mouths, what do they say?"
Ding Qun said anxiously: "But as soon as I let go, they will scream!"
Meng Cuiqiao said: "Madams, if you know where Miss Bai lives, please take us there."
The second woman was trembling, but she still pointed to the west.
Ding Qun escorted the second wife out of the long corridor, turned westward, and came to a separate courtyard. The courtyard was hung with red lanterns, and there were double happiness stickers on the window sills. He wondered, "So close?" He took out his handkerchief , tore it in half, and stuffed it into the mouth of the second woman.
In fact, the second wife was too frightened to make a sound, otherwise Ding Qun would have screamed when he took the handkerchief. Although their mouths were gagged, their hands and feet were not tied, but seeing Meng Cuiqiao standing aside, the second wife would not dare try to escape.
Ding Qun just walked to the door of the main room, a little flinched, hesitated, raised his hand three times, but failed to knock on the door.
Meng Cuiqiao picked up three small stones from the ground and threw them in succession. They hit the door panel with a "thud, thud, thump," and a woman in the room panicked, "Who is it?"
When Ding Qun heard Shanshan's voice, his heart melted, and he blurted out, "It's me..."
Shanshan was startled and said, "It's... Lu Xianggong?"
Ding Qun said: "Exactly."
The door opened immediately, and the person who opened the door was Yingling, who cried, "Mr. Lu, you are here!"
Seeing her bruised nose and swollen face, Ding Qun asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"
Yingling pulled him into the room, brought him in front of Shanshan and said, "Look at the girl!"
Shanshan was sitting on the bed, when she saw him coming in, she exclaimed and hurriedly put down the gauze curtain.
Yingling said anxiously: "Girl, what are you hiding? Let Lu Xianggong see you!" Lifting the gauze curtain.
But seeing that Shanshan is dressed in beautiful clothes, but her hair is messy, and her face is even more blue and purple.
Ding Qun was stunned, and said in a trembling voice: "What... what happened?" Then he said angrily, "That Jia beat you?"
With tears in her eyes, Shan Shan shook her head slightly.
Yingling cried: "Although he didn't do anything, it's almost the same as him!" Immediately, he told the whole story.
It turned out that Mr. Jia was very coquettish and lustful. He went to Yuyin Pavilion to meet Shan Shan several times, fell in love with him, and wanted to accept her as his aunt, but he neither reported this to his parents nor discussed it with his wife. Shan.
Mr. Jia's wife is a dominatrix, and the concubine only found out when she entered the house, so she was naturally furious and made a fuss.
The second elder of the Jia family was also very angry when he learned that his son was stealing a concubine from a brothel woman and refused to help him.
Mr. Jia's family is not limited to his parents and wife, but also three aunts and four maids, each of whom is full of jealousy. They don't want to find fault with the flirtatious man, but just go to Shanshan's other courtyard all day long, yelling and scolding, saying She is a whore, a whore, a slut, a vixen who specializes in seducing husbands... The words are extremely ugly.
Mr. Jia helped Shan Shan speak, but he was afraid of his wife, and once Mrs. Jia asked him to step aside, he didn't dare to stop him. Those concubines were backed by his wife, so they had nothing to fear. .
Ding Qun heard so many people beating Shanshan, and now she still has many wounds on her body, and his heart feels like a knife.
Yingling was loyal, and when Shanshan was beaten, she stood in front of her, so she also suffered a lot of punches. Looking back on the scene of being beaten, she was terrified, and cried: "Those shrews are so vicious, how will the girl live in the future? Lu Xianggong , think of something quickly!"
Ding Qun was so angry that his eyes shot fire, and he said loudly: "I'll beat him!" Then he rushed out the door.
Meng Cuiqiao has been standing in the courtyard, and has heard the conversation of the three people in the room, but it is inconvenient to go in, now Ding Qun rushed out ferociously, and hastily stopped him: "Wait a minute!"
Ding Qun said angrily: "Brother, I want to avenge Miss Bai!"
Meng Cuiqiao said: "What's the use of your revenge? If they hold a grudge, they will still vent their anger on Miss Bai in the future."
Ding Qun was shocked, and said anxiously: "Then what should I do? I... I'll beat him until he promises not to bully Miss Bai again!"
Meng Cuiqiao said: "It's not Mr. Jia who beat people, but his concubines. Besides, you forced everyone to promise not to bully Miss Bai again. If you turn around and leave, they will have new and old hatreds. I'm afraid they will bully you." Make her worse."
Ding Qun said anxiously: "How can this make... Yes, I will be Miss Bai's bodyguard and guard her. If anyone dares to move a finger of her, I will kill him!"
Meng Cuiqiao sighed: "You are such a stupid person! Everyone in the Jia family has bullied her like this, and you still want to keep her here as a husband and wife with Young Master Jia?"
Ding Qun was tongue-tied and said: "But... she is already Mr. Jia's aunt... If I take her away, it will be kidnapping, and Miss Bai will never see the light again!"
Meng Cuiqiao said: "Let him write a divorce letter." After thinking for a while, he asked Shanshan, "Miss Bai, has Mr. Jia issued a formal concubine letter for you?"
Yingling supported her own girl, and she had already come behind Ding Qun. Hearing this, she hurriedly said: "Young Master Jia didn't issue a concubine document for the girl!"
A woman with a concubine document is a decent concubine, but ordinary people cannot take concubines at will. Even if the family has money, it does not conform to the Ming law, and the government will not approve it. Although many rich families have many concubines, their families call them concubines. "Concubine" is just a nice name, but in fact these "concubine" do not have a concubine document, and the law does not recognize their status as "concubine".
Mr. Jia is not an official of the imperial court, nor is he a squire, nor is he childless at the age of forty, and has no qualifications to take concubines, but his family is rich, and he has raised many concubines privately, and these concubines have no documents, Shanshan Naturally there are no more.
Meng Cuiqiao said: "Then you don't even need a divorce letter." As he spoke, he took out a stack of bank notes from his pocket and handed it to Ding Qun.
Ding Qun took it over and took a look, and saw that each bank note was 1000 taels, ten in total, and a total of 1 taels. He was shocked and said, "Brother, this...so much money...I..."
Meng Cuiqiao said: "Don't talk about it, go and get back the deed of sale, do you want Miss Bai to be bullied here for the rest of her life?"
Ding Qun didn't hesitate when he heard the words, he strode out of the other courtyard with the bank note, and went to find Mr. Jia to redeem him.
