My sister became the empress, but I'm still growing vegetables and raising chickens

Chapter 195 Did I do something wrong?

Although he did not tell his family what had happened to his second sister, there were many gossipers in the village, and soon someone heard the news and ran to the Si family to tell the story.

"Oh my, this is really terrible. The Zuo family acts like this, aren't they afraid of being struck by lightning?" The fat woman slapped her legs and sighed, "Tong girl, you don't know, those two children of Qin Gu, tut tut tut..."

Feng Zizhou couldn't help but ask, "Aunt, what happened? Don't just sigh, tell me!"

The fat woman looked left and right, and saw that most of the Si family members were looking at her curiously. Many people from the village also gathered around, and there were a few people who were equally curious. Seeing that they were about to tell the situation, she quickly straightened her body.

But you can't ask others to say it first.

"Oh, that's what I was about to say. After Zuo Er and the others were taken away the other day, the Zuo family stopped giving their daughter any food. How could the little girl possibly survive? I don't know where they found the foraged food, but not only did she get a stomachache after eating it, she even got sick yesterday, and the Zuo family didn't care..."

Feng Zizhou asked hurriedly, "Why don't you ask a doctor to see you when you're sick?"

"No!" The fat woman's face was full of heartache. "The little girl didn't cry or make a fuss. She was very sensible. She knew her mother was having a hard time and was afraid that if she made a fuss, her mother would come back. Later, she became too ill. Her brother was smart and knew that her father's family was unreliable, so he ran to the Xiang family to find someone. Several men from the Xiang family carried sticks and hoes and broke into the Zuo family, wanting to take the girl back. What a pity..."

Feng Zizhou's eyes widened. "Even after all this, the Zuo family still won't let them go? They don't care for the child themselves, and they won't let the Xiang family do that?"

The fat woman sighed, "That's the Zuo family's child. What can we do? But fortunately, after all the commotion, we still managed to find a doctor and get some medicine for the girl, so her life was saved."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. As long as the child was okay, it was good. But they just thought, the child is okay now, but what about the future? They couldn't always make such a fuss at the Xiang family. What if the Xiang family neglected something, or if the old couple were gone, would anyone really take care of the child?

"What a sin... If the child's parents were fine, this wouldn't have happened..."

"That's not true. If Qin Gu didn't divorce, how could she live in the Zuo family?"

Everyone has different opinions, but they all feel sorry for the child.

Feng Zizhou asked, "So Sister-in-law Xiang came to our house to cause trouble because she felt sorry for her daughter?"

"No way..." The fat woman shook her head. "Her daughter is fine for now, but the Zuo family couldn't swallow this. In front of the Zuo family, they slapped her son several times. The poor four-year-old boy had a swollen face, but he didn't even dare to cry."

"hiss……"

Everyone gasped, how could they be so cruel!

The fat woman sighed, "Qin Gu was there too. Seeing this scene, her heart was broken. And the Zuo family even said something cruel, saying that this was the Zuo family's child and they could torture her however they wanted, and that the divorced woman had no right to interfere."

Because of this, Xiang was helpless, filled with resentment and had nowhere to vent. She cried and thought all night, and suddenly felt that if she hadn't left, her child wouldn't have suffered this pain. This is why what happened this morning happened.

Everyone discussed the matter. Some said the Zuo family was too cruel, while others said the Xiang family should have been patient for the sake of their children. Everyone went about their own business and dispersed.

The second sister returned to her room and sat there without saying a word.

Feng Zizhou was extremely anxious and wanted to push the door open, but remembering what Si Muyan said last night, he did not dare to enter his second sister's boudoir again, so he hurriedly called Si Muyan over.

"Sister Yan, I think Sister Tong is not in good condition. Why don't you go and persuade her?"

Si Muyan wasn't a cold-hearted person, but she had no intention of getting involved in the affairs of the Zuo and Xiang families, nor did she really want her second sister to get involved. After all, it was difficult for an official to judge family affairs, let alone theirs, an ordinary family. Moreover, if they made a choice for someone, if that person got a good result, they would only express gratitude or two, but if not, they would act like they did today.

Therefore, Si Muyan originally had no intention of taking care of her second sister.

Now that I think about it, my second sister is so stubborn that she probably really thinks she was wrong in this matter.

"it is good."

Si Muyan brought a plate of snacks to her second sister's room and said, "Would you like me to try the new product I researched yesterday?"

The second sister looked up and saw the concern in her eldest sister and cousin's eyes. She forced a smile that was uglier than crying: "I... can't eat."

Si Muyan sat down beside her and flipped through the book she had bound on the table. This was the Great Zhou laws Feng Zizhou had told her. She had written them down one by one and then slowly compiled them into a book. Feng Zizhou didn't remember them all, and neither did she, but one could still see her intentions.

"Are you sad for Sister-in-law Xiang, or for the two children?"

The second sister lowered her head and whispered, "Did I...do something wrong? Maybe...if I don't meddle in other people's business, everything will be fine."

Feng Zizhou said hurriedly, "No! You saw it that day too. If we hadn't meddled, Sister-in-law Ding might have died. How can you be blamed for that?"

"But..." The second sister shook her head, "But she doesn't need our help. It's really because of our interference that the two children have become so difficult."

"This..." Feng Zizhou was speechless and looked at Si Muyan for help.

Si Muyan was very calm. "The bad guys are wrong, because they are the ones who did all the evil. Zuo Er bullied Sister Xiang and almost took her life. Now the Zuo family is unrepentant and is planning to torture Sister Xiang with the lives of two living children. They are the ones who are wrong. Sister Xiang is also wrong. She didn't know how to judge people and didn't listen to her family's advice. She chose such a bad man, gave birth to his child, and got herself stuck in the mud. Now that she has escaped from the sea of ​​suffering, she still has to atone for her past mistakes. Her pain is the root of her fault. And you, you are not wrong. You just don't have the ability to reach the sky."

When Feng Zizhou heard this, he nodded frantically and said, "That's right, Sister Tong, you are not wrong."

Si Muyan continued, "And I think that besides the fault of the Zuo and Xiang families, the laws of the Great Zhou are also at fault for this incident. Because of the imperfections of the laws, we are now in a situation where we are unable to punish those who harm children. This is a kind of imprisonment for people with conscience, while those without conscience are literally strangling the lifeblood of those with conscience."

Feng Zizhou and his second sister both looked up at Si Muyan, obviously not understanding what he said.

"However, since ancient times, children have always been the offspring of the man. Even if the law is perfect, the child will still be the man's bloodline."
