Mrs. Xie also realized the seriousness of the matter.
The more aristocratic the family, the more tolerant and kind they are towards their servants. If there is news of harsh treatment and torture of servants, their reputation will be greatly affected.
This must not be allowed to get out.
Before she could speak, Xie Jingyu said coldly: "Bring Jiu'er out, I want to hear why you are seeking death."
Jiu'er was taken out of the house in a state of embarrassment, and fell to the ground with an ashen face.
She was only eleven years old, a little girl who had just gained the body of a girl. She looked at Yun Chu, broke down and cried: "Madam, I really don't want to live anymore, please give me a happy life."
Yun Chu walked over and helped her up: "Jiu'er, sir, I'm here. If you have any grievances, just tell me."
Jiu'er looked at Yunchu, and she saw a firm and gentle light, which seemed to inject a force into her.
She didn't speak. She lowered her head and unbuttoned her collar, revealing her small body. On her body, whip wounds could be seen, including new wounds and old wounds, intertwined together in a shocking way.
"It's just a little whiplash, and you won't be looking for death." The old lady took a look and said warmly, "You girls are young, so there is nothing wrong with being punished by the master if you don't do things well. The second young master is a young master who doesn't know the severity of things. , it is indeed the Xie family’s failure to discipline you that hurt you, so how about I give each of you ten taels of silver for medical expenses, and then work in another yard?"
Although her voice was gentle, it actually contained a threatening tone.
These girls should have paid to let this matter go. If they keep staring at it, it won't be that simple.
Yun Chu sneered.
In her previous life, Xie Shiwei made a mistake and was fooled like this. Until her death, she did not see Xie Shiwei receive the punishment he deserved.
She looked at Xie Jingyu: "Does the old lady mean what the husband means?"
Xie Jingyu clenched his hands behind his back. He knew that he had to show his attitude, otherwise Yun Chu would no longer discipline these children in the future.
He is really too busy, and he needs to rely on Yun Chu, a good wife, to make the entire Xie family better and better.
He stared at Jiu'er and said coldly: "Do you not want to live because you were whipped by the second young master?"
Jiu'er raised her arm and pulled hard on her arm with the thumb and index finger of her other hand. She suddenly saw a silver needle on her fingertips, and a pinhole on her arm, and a few drops came out. Blood.
"The second young master said that he wanted to know how many needles can be inserted into a person's body, so he used the slave as a test." Jiu'er cried bitterly, "The second young master inserted needles into the slave half a year ago. The first time he inserted ten needles into the back. From now on, there will be one more needle every day. There are almost two hundred needles in the slave's body. The slightest movement will cause severe pain all over the body. As long as the slave dares to secretly pull out the needles, what is waiting for the slave is the second young master's whip... The slave feels those The needle has penetrated into the internal organs. It hurts so much every day. I really don’t want to live..."
The courtyard was extremely quiet.
There was only the sound of Jiu'er crying.
Even the maid who lived in the same room with her didn't know that she was called over by the second young master every night to get needles inserted into her body.
The old lady opened her lips, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Mrs. He had known for a long time that her son liked to engage in these tricks, so she was not surprised at all. She just didn't understand why this matter was such a big deal...
Aunt Tao, who was pregnant, was so frightened by this incident that she could hardly stand still.
Yun Chu's heart was shocked.
Xie Shiwei was just eight years old this year. An eight-year-old child could actually come up with such cruel tricks. She couldn't imagine what those aunts who died in Xie Shiwei's hands would go through. But even after being tortured to death, he still couldn't bear it and committed suicide, all of which were filled with despair filled with blood and tears...
"Bring that scoundrel out!"
Xie Jingyu, who was always gentle in front of others, suddenly shouted angrily.
The two women immediately pushed Xie Shiwei out of the side room, who was tied up. He put a piece of cloth in his mouth and looked at the old lady whining for help.
Before the old lady could say anything, Xie Jingyu said coldly: "Bring the second young master's whip!"
The people below immediately brought the whip.
This is a soft leather whip suitable for children to play with. Although it is not as lethal as a hard whip, the pain when it hits a person is not much lighter than a board.
Xie Jingyu picked up his whip and walked towards Xie Shiwei.
Xie Shiwei's mouth was gagged and he was in so much pain that he couldn't scream. His hands and feet were tied, and he was squirming on the ground like a bug.
"Bah bang bang!"
Xie Jingyu showed no mercy at all, and whipped him seven or eight times in a row, hitting one location. Xie Shiwei's clothes were pulled open on his back, his flesh and blood turned up, and his clothes were dyed red.
"grown ups!"
He couldn't bear it anymore, so he rushed over and threw himself on Xie Shiwei, blocking the powerful whip.
She knew not to care too much about her children in front of others, but no mother could watch her children being beaten like this.
"The second young master is still young, please show mercy!"
He hugged Xie Shiwei tightly and begged.
Only then did Mrs. Xie come back to her senses, stood up and said, "Jing Yu, with your method of fighting, the child will be beaten to death by you. What has happened has already happened, so what can you do even if you beat him to death? We should think carefully about how to educate Brother Wei, how to treat Jiuer, and how to minimize the impact of this matter..."
Xie Jingyu was a scholar, but he was not good at whipping people with a whip. He was already panting from exhaustion.
He shook off the whip and said coldly: "Xie Shiwei, your behavior really brings great shame to my father. I am ashamed to have a son like you!"
His Xie family has been studying for generations, how could such a bastard come out?
If this bastard is allowed to grow up like this, the reputation of the Xie family for three or four generations will be completely ruined.
"My Xie family can't teach you well!" Xie Jingyu's voice was fierce, "I'll send you to join the army!"
Hearing this, the old lady was horrified: "No, absolutely no. The military camp is a place for poor people. It is hard and tiring. If you go to the front line, your life will be lost accidentally."
Xie Jingyu took a deep breath: "There are so many military orders in the military camp. Only there can we change Brother Wei's temper. Otherwise, our Xie family will not be able to deal with his murders and arson in the future. Madam, my father-in-law has many cronies in the capital. Can you please invite me?" Madam came forward to find a good place for Brother Wei."
A smile appeared on Yunchu's lips.
I really didn’t expect that this scene actually happened seven or eight years earlier than in the previous life.
In the previous life, she nodded without hesitation, sent Xie Shiwei to the Yun family's camp on the outskirts of Beijing, and made Xie Shiwei a confidant of the Yun family army. The consequences were too tragic, and she would never try it again...
"My husband doesn't know something." Yun Chu said in embarrassment, "Brother Wei wanted to learn martial arts a few days ago. I asked Qiu Tong to check his muscles and bones. He has no talent for learning martial arts. He can only be a soldier when he is sent to the military camp. A small soldier in the army is like a girl with the lowest status in the house, is your husband willing to give it away?"
Before Xie Jingyu could say anything, the old lady immediately said: "Brother Wei is only eight years old. If you are sent to the military camp as a soldier, don't you expect to be bullied? Even if you have the Yun Family Army to protect you, you can't protect him all the time. What if?" What should I do if something happens if I don’t protect you?"
He hurriedly said: "My lord, the second young master promised my wife before that he would study hard. He has changed. He has really changed."
Xie Shiwei nodded desperately.
