Chapter 48
On the way back, Wen Jianning always felt that her right eyelid had been jumping today, and she had a bad premonition inexplicably, but she really couldn't remember what else she had missed for a while. Although she had not yet had time to transfer the manuscripts and letters, the hiding place was very hidden, and it should not be discovered so quickly.
She forced herself to keep her mind and not to mess with herself.
However, as soon as she entered the living room, her hunch was confirmed.
Wen Jingshu sat in the center of the sofa expressionlessly, and saw Wan and them sitting next to her, looking at her face cautiously.
Wen Jianning looked at the posture of these three sessions and knew that something must have happened again.
Mei Shan also saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly gave her a look: "What's the matter, let's sit down and talk about it first." ”
Wen Jianning didn't listen to Mei Shan's words and sat down immediately, but subconsciously glanced at it first, and saw a brown paper bag on the lacquered gold table in front of Wen Jingshu, which looked a little familiar.
Before she could think about it, Wen Jingshu suddenly grabbed the brown paper bag on the table and smashed it at Wen Jianning.
With a bang, Wen Jianning stood still and didn't move, letting the brown paper bag smash heavily on his face. Since the seal had been opened, it would be thrown out again, and the test papers in the paper bag fell like snowflakes, falling on Wen Jianning's head and shoulders with a loud noise, and sliding to the ground.
There was silence in the living room.
Wen Jianning closed her eyes, she already knew what was in the paper bag.
What followed was like a nightmare.
Wen Jianning only felt that she was being pulled wantonly, but she didn't want to resist at all, so she let herself be pushed around. Even though the sharp nails scratched her face, her expression didn't change at all. At first, she could clearly hear Wen Jingshu's scolding in her ears, but this scolding gradually faded away, and she could only feel the blood in her body like lava at the bottom of the sea, gushing and boiling uncontrollably, and finally being evaporated into nothingness.
In the end, she was staggered and dragged upstairs.
After hearing a loud bang, the door slammed shut in front of her eyes, and all she heard was the words, "Shut her up for me!"
......
Wen Jianning was placed under house arrest.
She is not allowed to go out, she is not allowed to go to school, and she is not allowed to communicate with the outside world.
The door to the room could occasionally be opened, but her range of activities was limited to the villa, not even the garden.
Every time she went downstairs, she was followed by two maids, who could read books and newspapers, but were not allowed to write letters, let alone use the telephone in the living room.
The whole villa was shrouded in clouds, and even the young maids, who were usually noisy, did not dare to speak loudly, and held their breath every time they walked past the living room. In such an atmosphere, no one dared to speak for Wen Jianning, let alone intercede for her, even Mei Shan didn't dare to brush the tiger's whiskers on Wen Jingshu's anger.
The days of solitary confinement were more difficult than Wen Jianning imagined.
At first, she thought it was just being locked up in a room, nothing to be afraid of.
She continued to read and review her homework, but for several days, no one in the villa dared to say a word to her, only she sat alone in the room, occasionally looking at the blue sky outside the window and listening to the voices outside.
During the day, I saw that they went to school, and the maids were cleaning the rooms one by one, and there was a chaotic sound of walking in the corridor, and after a while, it was completely silent. Only the birds outside the house chirped, which made people panic.
In the evening, everyone returned.
Seeing that they were tired when they came back from shopping, they closed the door casually, leaving a dull thud. The living room downstairs is still very lively in the middle of the night, and the sound of mahjong is very crisp, and it will not stop until the second half of the night.
Every three or five days, they had another ball.
The sound of the gramophone came from downstairs, and the soft music slowly flowed into the room like water. Wen Jianning only felt as if he was lying alone on the deck, drifting with the waves. The mist rose from the surface of the sea, obscuring everything outside the ship, so that she could neither see where she was coming from nor where she was going.
This muddy state of affairs continued until the seventh day, when Wen Jianning went on a hunger strike.
She locked the door and refused to open it no matter how much she knocked, so the maid could only leave the food outside. After a while, I looked at it, and there was not a single touch on it. After two or three times of this, the maids withdrew the cold meal again, and the news spread in the villa.
No one was surprised when everyone heard the news.
With Wen Jianning's stubborn and resolute temperament, it is only a matter of time before he resorts to the trick of hunger strike.
Wen Jingshu even sneered after hearing about this: "I also said how capable she is, and in the end it's just this trick." If she wants to be a chaste martyr, I, as an aunt, naturally want to fulfill her!"
It's just that Wen Jingshu doesn't care about her life or death, and others can't really watch Wen Jianning have an accident with a big living person.
The first one to take the lead was to see the embroidery.
Wen Jianning was lying on the bed with his head covered by the quilt, and there was a knock at the door: "Jianning, it's me." ”
Seeing that Xiu paused, he said: "You haven't eaten for two days, you can't go on like this, so let's eat something first." ”
The man under the quilt did not move.
The person outside the door was silent for a moment before he said, "Even if you don't want to eat, isn't it a little bad to leave me outside the door like this." Even if you don't want to admit it, nominally I'm still your sister. ”
Wen Jianning pulled down the quilt on his body, stared at the ceiling for a moment, and then got out of bed and slowly opened the door.
As soon as the door opened, I saw that Xiu was standing outside the door with a meal.
Wen Jianning, who had not eaten a drop of water for two days, stood barefoot on the ground, her face was pale, and her whole expression was also sad: "I won't eat, you can go back." Her voice was hoarse, and it was obvious that she was not in a good mental state.
Originally, she was still a little resistant to seeing her, and her nose was sour when she looked like this. She took a breath, her voice still trembling: "Jianning, how did you make yourself like this." ”
Wen Jianning didn't know how to answer, so he could only be silent.
Jianxiu directly pushed the door open, passed over her and put the food in her hand on the desk.
Wen Jianning watched her actions and said in as calm a tone as possible: "You can go out." ”
Seeing her like this, she naturally refused to leave like this. If she puts it down and leaves, Jianning will definitely not eat, wouldn't it be a trip for nothing. But she also knew that Wen Jianning had a stubborn temper and could only take it slowly step by step.
She pretended to sit down on the chair relaxedly: "We haven't spoken for a long time, can I talk to you." ”
Wen Jianning lowered his eyelids and closed the door casually.
Seeing the embroidery did not relax, but a little unsure of what to do.
They don't really have anything to talk about.
After the incident in the Yan Mansion last time, the already precarious relationship between the two was even worse. They hadn't spoken for a while, and they hadn't even bothered each other before this incident.
She didn't know where to put her gaze, so she could only glance around casually, and said in the same relaxed tone as when they chatted in their daily chats before: "It's daytime, why did you close the curtains." ”
Seeing Xiu get up and open the curtains as he spoke, the daylight instantly penetrated the originally dark room.
Wen Jianning raised a hand to block the dazzling light.
Seeing that Xiuxiu had already bent down and began to help her clean up the house: "You haven't opened the door to let people in for the past two days, and no one has cleaned up the room, and it only took a long time for a layer of dust to fall, and I don't know how you endured it." ”
She looked left and right, and couldn't find the rag in her hand for a while, so she had to put her hand down, but glanced at the messy quilt on the bed: "You stayed in the room for a few days and didn't go out, and you didn't even fold the quilt, when did you become so sloppy." She walked to the bed as she spoke, intending to help Wen Jianning fold the quilt.
Wen Jianning squinted to get used to the light, and when she saw Xiu going to the bed, she hurriedly stopped in front of her.
She looked a little unnatural and said to Jianxiu: "You go out, it's none of your business." ”
Seeing that Xiuxiu was stunned for a moment, he smiled and said, "It's just to help you fold a quilt, it's not a big deal." She said that she was about to cross over again, but was blocked by Wen Jianning's raised arm.
Wen Jianning insisted: "No need, I'll fold it myself in a while." ”
Seeing Xiu looked at her in a daze for a moment, a hurt look appeared on her face: "You really hate me like this." ”
Wen Jianning stood in front of her helplessly, not knowing what to do for a while.
However, what she didn't expect was that when she was distracted for a while, she saw that Xiu slammed her shoulder, and wanted to lift the quilt on the bed to take a look. Wen Jianning hurriedly went up to grab it, and the two of them pulled the quilt and stalemate.
"Let go. ”
Seeing that Xiu's strength was not as strong as Wen Jianning's, the two fought hard for a long time, and when they saw Xiu, they found that they couldn't pull her at all, so they had to resort to a killer move: "Believe it or not, I'll let people call my aunt and them over now." ”
She was very familiar with Wen Jianning's temperament, if she was only suspicious, now she could confirm that Wen Jianning did not know what the hell was going on in the room, and her secret happened to be hidden under this quilt.
Wen Jianning stared at her, and then slowly let go of his hand, and let Jianxiu lift the quilt.
Half of the original sheet was torn off at some point, and the other half was gone. Seeing Xiuxiu looked around the bed again, and soon found a ball of cloth rope, which was made by tearing the other half of the sheet and other clothes into strips.
Jianxiu gasped deeply, "You, how dare you ......?"
She didn't expect it to be like this, Wen Jianning even wanted to escape.
Wen Jianning's room is on the second floor, and as long as you use a bed sheet to tie a cloth rope down from the window, you can jump into the garden. As long as she finds a way to climb over the wall, she can escape from the villa completely.
Wen Jianning, who was caught red-handed, sat down on the edge of the bed and lowered his eyes, not saying a word.
Seeing that Xiu was really angry with her, she lowered her voice and gritted her teeth: "You are really crazy, no, I am crazy." ”
She should have guessed a long time ago, although Jianning has a stubborn personality, she is not stupid, she can't naively think that she can make Wen Jingshu change her mind by using a hunger strike.
Seeing that Xiu was holding his forehead, sitting on the edge of the bed, it took a long time to barely calm down, and he couldn't help but bring a reproachful tone when he opened his mouth: "It's just a matter of bowing your head to your aunt, why do you have to make such an ugly fuss, and make everyone unhappy." If it's not me but them who are found today, how do you want to end up? ”
Wen Jianning looked at her expressionlessly: "Do you think it's any use for me to lower my head again?"
Seeing the embroidery, he was speechless for a while.
After a long time, she asked dejectedly, "Say, how are you going to run?" ”
Wen Jianning understood what she meant, and after a while, he lowered his head and said slowly: "You go to the school to contact my friend Zhong Hui and ask her to help me buy a ticket from Hong Kong to the mainland, the sooner the better, you can go anywhere." The night before leaving, ask her to find a way to hire a car and pick me up near the villa. ”
Jianxiu bowed his head and said, "I can buy the ferry ticket for you, why bother so much." ”
She had seen that Zhong Hui, and on weekdays at school, she had seen them talking and laughing side by side with books and books. She also knew that this girl was one of Jianning's few friends, but she didn't expect that the relationship between Jianning and this Zhong Hui would be so good. At such a time, Jianning could still think of her for the first time.
Wen Jianning shook his head: "In case your actions are discovered by them, the gains outweigh the losses." ”
She knew very well that she only had one chance to escape, and once she was discovered by Wen Jingshu and them, not only would her own situation be worse than the current situation, but she might even be affected by the embroidery who helped her, and the latter was the last thing she wanted to see.
Jianxiu rubbed his eyebrows tiredly: "Okay, since you have decided to leave, then you can eat something more, otherwise how can you have the strength to run." Listen to me, eat a little first. ”
Wen Jianning glanced at the door cautiously, and said in a low voice: "You don't have to worry about me, I have something to eat." ”
She just said that she was going on a hunger strike and made a fuss to show Wen Jingshu, but in fact, since the first day, she has begun to save food and hide it in the closet. After all, only when she is well fed and has enough physical strength can she escape.
Seeing the embroidery, he was speechless.
Wen Jianning was obviously determined to run, and she had planned it from the beginning, what else could she say.
She could only say in a low voice: "But you, but it's not a way for you to go on like this, otherwise it's better to give in to your aunt first, maybe you can still ...... Convenient for you to escape. ”
Seeing that Xiu originally wanted to say that maybe Wen Jingshu's anger disappeared, and she would no longer embarrass her, but when the words came to her mouth, she still changed her words.
Wen Jianning shook his head: "It's not time yet." ”
If she suddenly lowered her head, it would make Wen Jingshu and them suspicious. At least wait for another three or five days, so that Wen Jingshu thinks that she has boiled her soft, and it is logical to bow her head when the time comes.
Seeing that Xiu was completely speechless.
The two sat relatively wordless for a long time, and when they saw Xiucai, they thought that the time they had come in was not short, and they were afraid of being suspected, so they quickly got up and took the tray and prepared to go out. Wen Jianning sent her to the door, but saw her suddenly stop, turned her head, looked straight at her and said softly: "I didn't promise you anything, you told me all this, aren't you afraid that I will turn my head and tell my aunt and them?"
Wen Jianning glanced at her in surprise, and then said calmly: "You won't." ”
Although as she grew older, the two of them became worse and worse, and she sometimes couldn't understand what Jianxiu was thinking. But Wen Jianning can at least be sure of one thing, as a person who sees embroidery, he will never harm her.
But a few words, but for some reason Jianxiu suddenly had a sour nose, and said with a wry smile: "Sometimes, I really don't know where you get this kind of confidence, as if you will never look at the wrong person." That's true for Yan Tingchen, and it's true for me. ”
However, before Wen Jianning could speak again, she hurriedly wiped her eyes, turned away and said in a low voice, "But this may be one of the few things I can do for you." Don't worry, I'll help you escape. ”
