When Rong Xia heard that Aunt Hu had been sold, the first thing that came to mind in her heart was her sister Bisi.

One of them is a girl, and the other is an aunt, but in the eyes of the old lady and Mrs. Hou, they are just things that can be sold with their hands.

Human life is like grass, nothing more.

As a result, the idea in Rong Xia's heart to redeem himself for the whole family became more and more firm.

She inquired with Mrs. Li that the husband and wife sold themselves into the house and signed a death deed. In other words, if their family wants to go out, they can not only redeem it by paying back the silver, but the most important thing is to get the master's nod and agree and return their deed. Otherwise, no identity deed is equivalent to no household registration, and their whole family is homeless, unable to buy land, unable to open shops, although the world is big, but for them there is nowhere to stand.

Rong Xia wanted to go over and beg Pei Jinzhi, she only planned to wait for a few more years, when Pei Jinzhi's body was better, and she would save more money, so she cheekily begged for this grace, Rong Xia didn't plan to go too far, just live near the suburbs of Beijing, she planted vegetables in a variety of ways and supplied Pei Jinzhi, which could also solve the problem of his difficulty in eating. Although Pei Jinzhi treated her well, in this Dingyang Marquis Mansion, where her life would be taken care of at any time, Rong Xia was afraid in her heart after all.

After April, the weather is getting warmer day by day, and the pace of spring is approaching.

Rong Xia, who is already twelve years old, has also grown taller like a willow branch, and her eyebrows and eyes have gradually taken off the child's immaturity and become beautiful, and the whole person has vaguely begun to have a girlish feeling.

"The land in the garden has to be ploughed, and this year we have to expand it, plough out a hundred more ridges to the bamboo forest, and the fish pond can also be filled with water......," Rong Xia lowered his head and held the plan he had written, and explained it to Wang Dahai while instructing in detail.

Now Rong Xia has three Xiao Si in addition to Wang Dahai, all of whom are in charge of vegetable fields and fish ponds. With enough manpower, Rong Xia thought about expanding reproduction.

"Hey, come here!" a delicate female voice sounded in the distance.

Rong Xia stiffened, looked up, and sure enough, she saw the scarlet girl standing not far away, looking at her impatiently.

After hesitating, Rong Xia still walked over.

"Madame has a bad appetite today, so you can make an appetizing dish!" said the scarlet girl, frowning and very proud.

This is the seventh time this month that the young grandmother has asked her to eat.

"Okay, I know, let's go!" Rong Xia turned around and explained to Wang Dahai again, before following Fei'er to Cangmu Zhai.

Since it was appetizing, Rong Xia thought about it and made a bowl of rock sugar pumpkin porridge with round white bean paste buns, plus a few plates of fresh side dishes. The dish was made, Scarlet immediately took the food box and left, Rong Xia also went back to Luzhuxuan, who thought that it didn't take long for Miss Scarlet to bring someone to get Rong Xia.

Rong Xia was pressed to kneel on the ground, full of panic and dizzy, I don't know why, the scarlet girl slapped her delicate little face, and slapped it up, I already saw that this little slut was not pleasing to the eye, didn't she just know how to cook some food, why was she so embarrassed in front of the second master.

Rong Xia's ears were buzzing when he was beaten, and Venus appeared in front of him.

"Why did you beat me?" Rong Xia raised his head and looked at the triumphant scarlet in front of him: "Why are you beating people!"

"Why? It's just because you make the second young grandmother uncomfortable!"

Rong Xia thought, where did she make the second young grandmother uncomfortable?

If it weren't for her summons, Rong Xia would never have taken the initiative to come to Cangmu Zhai's side, and only honestly nested in Luzhuxuan, and even Pei Jinzhi was rare. Why is she in the way of the eyes of the second young grandmother?

"At noon today, the second young grandmother ate the food you cooked, and after a while, she felt sick to her stomach, and after a while, she vomited out, the meal was made by you, it's not your fault and whose fault is it?"

In fact, after Qiao Sulan vomited, the room full of people was extremely excited, and they thought that the second young grandmother was happy. Who would have thought that the doctor would come over to check the pulse, and it was just that it was just a stomach flush that led to a cold, Qiao Sulan felt embarrassed in disappointment, Rong Xia, the person who cooked, was naturally a ready-made punching bag.

After giving Rong Xia a slap, Scarlet didn't continue to move, and only let Rong Xia kneel there.

Rong Xia refused, and the mother-in-law brought by Scarlet came over to restrain her.

The place where Rong Xia knelt was very conspicuous, and the slaves and servants who came and went all coveted their eyes and looked at them secretly. Although Rong Xia suffered a lot when she was a child, after all, she came from the world of "everyone is equal", where has she experienced this kind of thing of being slapped in the face and kneeling on the street? Rong Xia's self-esteem was greatly hurt, and she was trapped with tears in her eyes, telling herself that she couldn't cry at this time.

Rong Xia knelt there for the whole afternoon, and when he was carried back, both legs were black.

Jiuxiang hugged her and cried, Rong Xia gritted her teeth, and was covered in cold sweat.

"Second young grandmother is deliberately trying to torture you!" Jiuxiang wiped Rong Xia's legs with a steaming towel while shedding tears. It is the time to grow the body, the girl's arms and legs are slender and tender, and when she kneels on the gravel road, it is cloudy and cold, and her legs can be wasted.

Rong Xia was speechless in pain, and only covered her face with her hands and rinsed her tears.

Seeing that she was so sad, Jiuxiang stopped talking, and after being busy with applying medicine to Rong Xia's blood, she coaxed Rong Xia to sleep, and then went out of the room, she glanced at the sky, muttered for a few moments, raised her feet and looked in the direction of the gate of the Hou Mansion.

"Young master......" He An shouted anxiously from behind.

Pei Jinzhi held his foot and glanced back at him.

"What's the matter?"

"Young master, young grandma punished Ah Xia, Ah Xia seems to be injured a lot!"

Pei Jinzhi stiffened, and without saying a word, he lifted his feet and went to the side of Luzhuxuan.

He An shuddered lightly, and thought: The second young master's face just now was really scary!

In [Cangmu Zhai], Qiao Sulan lazily leaned on the embroidered pillow with gold cork and jade core. Jiang Pei lifted the curtain and came in, walked to his side, and whispered: "Madam, the master went to the side of Luzhuxuan, I should have gone to see the girl." ”

"Hmph, it's really a baby!" Qiao Sulan sneered with resentment, and spit out the sour plums in her mouth, which was really unpalatable.

"The master is probing the master's bottom like this, not afraid of angering the master?"

"No matter how she is, she is just a girl, how can the second master be angry with me for her. What's more, her family did feel uncomfortable because she ate the food made by Rong Xia, and when she put it here, she made sense to say anything. Of course, Qiao Sulan saved herself from some physical discomfort.

In her eyes, Rong Xia, this little girl, is full of eccentricity, although she is just a slave, but she has the eyes of the crown princess, and she was even specially taken to Min Qing Palace to live for a short time, you must know that Qiao Sulan herself has never seen the crown princess! and his own father-in-law is also full of unusualness for this little girl, he only eats the food she cooks, and hands over the entire Luzhuxuan to her to take care of, and he is not even allowed to interfere in the affairs over there.

In this way, it is like treating a slave and maid.

While the master and servant were talking, someone outside said, "The second master is back!"

Qiao Sulan's eyes lit up, her eyebrows rolled, and her whole person became weaker by three points, leaning on the pillow sickly.

Pei Jinyi came in and saw her like this.

"Sick" his face was expressionless, and his tone was always faint as usual.

"I ate something bad today, and my stomach is quite bad, so I feel uncomfortable. Qiao Sulan smiled a little weakly.

Pei Jinzhi glanced at her deeply, and didn't know why Qiao Sulan felt a little unable to bear his gaze at this time, so her heart sank and she dodged her gaze. And Pei Jinzhi didn't seem to have the intention of asking any further at all, but just gave a faint sigh.

Washing, changing, and dinner together.

Qiao Sulan had a little cold, her body was uncomfortable, and she only used it a little, and Pei Jinzhi didn't know why she ate very little, basically only moved the chopsticks, and then put it down.

When Qiao Sulan saw it, her heart sank suddenly.

After dinner, Pei Jinzhi went to the study.

In the evening, Jiang Pei cautiously came over and said, "Madam, He An just came over and passed on a message, saying that my master will sleep in the study tonight and will not come back." ”

Qiao Sulan slammed up straight, the color on her face changed myriadly, and after a while, she sneered and said angrily: "Master is angry with me!"

"Madame......"

"It's just a slave girl, is she and the second master or me and the second master? For such a thing, the second master actually gave me a face!" Qiao Sulan angrily tore the quilt.

Jiang Pei knows the character of her master, who seems to be weak but has the right idea in her heart, and she has grown up under the doting of her parents since she was a child, but she is not very able to listen to people's persuasion. If Jiang Pei wants to say it herself, no matter how favored the girl is, she is just an eleven or twelve child, and she is not the second master's concubine, the master really doesn't have to call this tone, coax the second master a lot, give birth to a child as soon as possible, and everything will be settled, why bother to tease the second master at this time!

At night, Rong Xia began to heat up.

Mrs. Li ran over and guarded her all night, and Jiuxiang was also beside her to help decoction and wipe her body, tossing until dawn, and Rong Xia's fever subsided.

Rong Xia's two legs were swollen into mallets, bruised, bruised, and looked very scary.

As soon as she woke up, she saw Li Niangzi guarding her in a daze.

There was a sense of déjà vu to the scene.

Rong Xia thought.

Seeing that her daughter woke up, Mrs. Li hurriedly swallowed back the tears soaked in her eyes, and carefully hugged her daughter in her arms.

"Mother......" Rong Xia shouted in a hoarse voice.

"Hey, mother, don't be afraid!"

"Mother, let's get out of here...... Rong Xia said in a daze, "I'm afraid." ”

Mrs. Li choked in her throat and sobbed fiercely.

At the door, Pei Jinzhi stopped.
