Folktale: The widow went to the toilet in the middle of the night and saw the maid slip into the uncle’s room, leading to a ugly thing

Ming Dynasty In the last year, there was a family named Lu in Shunde Prefecture. The Lu family has been in business for generations and has accumulated a wealth of ten thousand dollars, making them one of the largest households in the local area. Master Lu has only one daughter, whose name is Congyi. As the saying goes, the rich is not more than three generations, and the poor are not five servers. In Congyi's generation, the Lu family is already a little bit depressed. But the lean camel is bigger than the horse, and Congyi still leads a worry-free life.

When Cong Yi was 18 years old, she married Xiao Yilou, a local literati. I thought I had found a good home, but after less than two years of marriage, Xiao Yilou passed away unfortunately, and the young Congyi became a widow.

Not long after he died in Xiao Yilou, Congyi discovered a strange thing. One night, when she went to the yard to go to the bathroom, she accidentally saw her handmaid sneak into her uncle's room. I thought it was a trivial matter, but Congyi was surprised by the conversation between the two.

The story also starts before Cong Yi gets married. Before marrying Congyi, Xiao Yilou was just a poor scholar. He studied hard for more than ten years, but he had no money and no power, and he was still unable to get fame. Over time, he became more and more decadent, spending all his thoughts on reading in eating, drinking, and having fun.

Xiao Yilou has a younger brother named Xiao and Huang. He is an honest carpenter who keeps Xiao Yilou. Xiao Hehuang once built an ancestral house for the Lu family, and therefore met Congyi. At that time, Congyi was only sixteen years old, with a simple personality, innocent and lively. In addition, she had been in the boudoir for a long time and had no friends. Xiao Hehuang introduced her to his brother.

Xiao Yilou looks handsome and can speak well, and soon captured the heart of Cong Yi. Later, Cong Yi begged her father to help Xiao Yi up and down the building to get through the official career. In this way, with the help of Master Lu, Xiao Yilou successfully passed the examination in the national examination, passed the Juren examination, and soon married Congyi.

Accompanying Cong Yi to marry is also a maid named Huan Xi Yao,Xi Yao and Cong Yi are about the same age, and they have a good relationship. On the day of Cong Yi's marriage, Xi Yao was called to accompany him. In this way, Xi Yao followed Cong Yi to the Xiao family.

Not long after marriage, Congyi discovered a strange thing. Xi Yao didn't seem to like Xiao Yilou, and even refused to serve him. Xiao Yilou seldom looked at her directly, and the two met all day long without any communication.

One year later, the two maids who served Xiao Yilou suddenly fell ill. In addition, Xiao Yilou also stumbled into the lake during an outing, almost losing his life. Since then, Xiao Yilou has had nightmares every day, and his body has gone from bad to worse. Congyi visited famous doctors and took many tonics for her husband, but to no avail. Before long, Xiao Yilou died on the bed.

Congyi, who became a widow, was in grief and washed away with tears all day long. Fortunately, her uncles Xiao Hehuang and Xi Yao persisted in taking care of her, and she slowly walked out of the shadow of a widowed husband.

One night, Congyi woke up in a daze, ready to go to the yard to go to the toilet. As soon as she walked to the door, she heard Xi Yao's voice. Looking through the crack in the door, Xi Yao actually followed behind her uncle and sneaked into his room.

Cong Yi smiled slightly, love between men and women is normal, Xi Yao is not too young after all. After going to the toilet, Congyi passed by Xiao Hehuang's room. At this time, the sound of two people's conversation came from the room. Curious, Congyi leaned close to the door to secretly sound.

"Second son, are we too sorry for what we did? After all...."

"How come, you still don't understand the virtues of my elder brother, it will only harm Congyi!" Before Xi Yao finished speaking, Xiao and Huang interrupted her.

original,Xiao Yilou's death was not accidental, but a plot by Xi Yao and Xiao Hehuang. As a carpenter, Xiao Hehuang is proficient in the art of overcoming. He made a paper man with the birth date of Xiao Yilou and his essence and blood written on it, and he was buried under the east wall of the yard. After the spell was activated, Xiao Yilou was haunted by ghosts all day long, with Yin Qi entering his body, and he died soon after.

's words surprised Congyi. She never thought that her husband was killed by the closest person. She was trembling with anger, kicked the door open, pointed at the two of them and yelled. When Xi Yao saw Cong Yi, she sat slumped on the ground in fright. On the contrary, Xiao and Huang were very calm, until Cong Yi was tired of scolding, and then slowly spoke, exposing the scandal of Xiao Yilou.

It turned out that Xiao Yilou had known Xi Yao for a long time. Before Xi Yao entered the Lu family as a maid, the two had a life-long relationship, and they were married, and Xiao and Huang had long been married. Treat Xi Yao as his sister-in-law. Unexpectedly, after Xiao Yilou met Congyi, he took a fancy to the financial resources behind the Lu family, and for the sake of his own future, he resolutely abandoned Xi Yao.

In addition, it is not natural for Cong Yi to marry Xiao Yilou. Relying on Congyi's trust in herself, Xiao Yilou would go to Lu's house and Congyi's private meeting every night. Once, he secretly put a drug in the wine, dragged him to the bed after being dizzy, and he asked someone to call Master Lu.

When Master Lu saw this, he naturally thought that his daughter had lost his innocence, so he reluctantly agreed to their marriage. It was also Xiao Yilou's conspiracy that Master Lu could help Xiao Yilou up and down. In exchange for Congyi's innocent reputation, he asked Master Lu to help him get through the official career. It can be said that Xiao Yilou has never loved Congyi from beginning to end, but only regards him as a stepping stone in his future.

Xiao Hehuang’s words were like a bolt from the blue, Congyi did not come up in a breath and passed out. I don't know how long she woke up in a daze, and found her father sitting next to her bed.Before she could speak, her father said sadly: "Yi'er, don't blame Xi Yao and He Huang. They don't hesitate to kill your relatives for your sake. You are still young, so you can't just be ruined like this."

Cong Yi couldn't control it anymore and burst into tears. At this time, Xiao Hehuang and Xi Yao walked into the room, and Congyi found out that Xiao Hehuang had broken a leg at some point. The two said that they were ready to surrender to the county government. After all, Xiao Yilou was killed and they could not escape.

After the two were in prison, Congyi personally edited a book and explained the ins and outs of the matter to the county magistrate. The magistrate was very moved and decided to punish him lightly. Five years later, the two were released after serving their sentences, but Cong Yi took the two of them away from home and never returned.
