Chapter 7: Accidents
When Su Qi was sent to the carriage to the Wang landlord's house, Zhang Xu did not hesitate at all. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Su Qi obediently got into the carriage, his eyes were empty, his expression was indifferent, and he was a little reluctant. This bit of reluctance is for Xiao Jiu.
Maybe if he goes, the two will never see each other again...... Su Qi, who was sitting in the humble carriage, couldn't help but think like this, but he couldn't help but hear a few familiar calls from outside the carriage!
"Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi, you must take care of yourself, promise me! Wait for me to come to you!" Xiao Jiu's voice came into Su Qi's ears through the clammy and cold wind in the morning, Su Qi hurriedly lifted the dark blue curtain to look at it, but only saw a vague shadow.
I don't know if it was at Zhang Xu's request or for another reason, the carriage ran extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, not only Xiao Jiu's figure, but even the dilapidated adobe house where she had lived for many years disappeared from her field of vision. The carriage quickly drove away from Su Qi's familiar village and drove in an unfamiliar direction, towards a future that was both familiar and unfamiliar to her.
Su Qi's body has been weak since he was a child, and he has not been nourished with fine nutrition, where can he stand the bumpy feeling brought by the carriage rushing forward. But she knew that even if she gave her own opinions, it was useless, and the coachman and the fierce-looking mother-in-law would not only ignore her, but also scolded her. Therefore, Su Qi was very acquainted, did not cry or complain, and simply closed his eyes to recuperate.
As soon as she got into the car, Su Qi was fed sweat medicine that can make people sleepy, but perhaps because the carriage was too bumpy and shook too violently, she didn't feel sleepy. On the other hand, the other people in the car were probably in the same situation as her.
There were a lot of people in this extremely simple and even somewhat dilapidated carriage, a stout mother-in-law who was about forty years old and knew that it was not easy to get along with each other by looking at her face, a coachman with dark skin with a big mole on the corner of her mouth, and the rest were all little girls of the same age as Su Qi.
Some of these little girls were sold by their families, and some were abducted by the mother-in-law, including Su Qi, there are ten of them. They come from different places, but they have a common destination - the landlord's house of Wang Wanjin Wang in Muhe Town.
"I want my mother, I want to go home......" The little girl's aggrieved cry came, and Su Qi couldn't help frowning when she heard it.
"What are you arguing about, tearing your mouth apart again!"
……
Su Qi's good-looking eyes opened and looked straight in the direction of the voice: the fierce-faced woman was sitting on a low stool, raising her hand to fan a little girl with tears on her face.
With an inaudible sigh, Su Qi opened his throat and shouted, "Stop!"
The woman didn't pay attention to her, but snorted coldly and slapped the little girl hard!
I don't know where the strength came from, Su Qi slammed into front of the little girl, and blocked the woman's slap for her with her thin shoulders. Su Qi immediately gasped in pain, and one after another exclamations rang out in the carriage.
"You cheap hooves, don't you have itchy skin?" the mother-in-law gritted her teeth, her wrinkled old face was full of gloom, and it looked a little terrifying.
Su Qi rubbed his shoulder that had just been hit, and couldn't help but raise an innocent smile at the mother-in-law, "Don't dare, don't dare, Mom, you misunderstood." I just remember that my mother once told me that when I go to the landlord's house to be a maid, I must have a good look. I looked away, and thought that my mother was going to slap that sister in the face, so I made a desperate move, and I hope my mother will not blame me. ”
Su Qi's words woke up Mrs. Fang, her task this time was to find some little girls who looked like water for the old man of the Wang family, and now she finally found some, but she couldn't teach her to be angry and break it for a while. Thinking of this, Mrs. Fang glanced at the crying little girl before, and then began to look at Su Qilai.
If you look delicate, and if you grow a little longer, you may be a beauty. The mouth is quite neat, and it doesn't look special. Mrs. Fang retracted her gaze and looked out of the carriage instead.
Su Qi sat up and slowly moved back to his position. Originally, she didn't have to suffer this for the girl, but the girl's crying reminded her of many things. Although it has been many years, she still remembers very clearly, when she got into the carriage, she also cried to ask for her mother, but was beaten by Mrs. Fang, she didn't cry again in this life, but the girl's crying reminded her of herself in her previous life.
At the beginning, I wanted to be a maid in the landlord's house and earn monthly money to supplement the family, but unexpectedly, the Wang family turned out to be a wolf's den that ate people and did not spit out bones. However, these things were only learned by chance after she entered the Su Mansion.
"Sister Fang, it's time to feed some forage after the horses have been running for a long time, there is an inn in front of us, why don't we go and rest first." Suddenly the driver's voice came from outside the curtain, which shocked the girls in the car.
After sitting in the carriage for a long time, they are all delicate and frail little girls, where is there a reason not to be tired. The girls looked at Mrs. Fang with a look of hope, hoping that she would let them go down and rest for a while.
Mrs. Fang took in the expressions of everyone in the car, but there was a mocking smile on her face.
"It's not impossible to feed the horses and eat grass, but the Wang's house is not far away, and the horses will leave immediately after eating grass. Mrs. Fang's indifferent words poured cold water on everyone in the car like ice water.
However, Su Qi's heart was like seeing the moon through the clouds, and it became clear in an instant.
The carriage traveled so fast all the way, presumably because Mrs. Fang was afraid that something would go wrong along the way, and she wanted to send them to the Wang family as soon as possible, so she had this arrangement. Unfortunately, she couldn't control the natural theorem that horses should eat grass.
The coachman answered, and after a moment the crowd felt the carriage stop.
Su Qi secretly lifted the curtain and looked out in a direction that Mrs. Fang couldn't see, and at a glance saw a plaque of 'Fuyuan Inn' hanging on a simple wooden house outside the carriage.
The wooden house is not very large, and there are not many people coming and going, so it doesn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary.
Su Qi silently recited the words 'Fuyuan Inn' in his heart, thinking that this might be God's arrangement. Fortune, fortune, she is destined to meet her fortune here!
"Master, this time I went out to collect the bills very smoothly, I think I can rush back to the house before dark, and I don't have to worry about the old lady and the lady for you. It sounded like a middle-aged man's voice.
Immediately afterwards, a low and pleasant male voice came into Su Qi's ears: "Yes, this time, our luck is really good." ”
The sound came from far and near, and seemed to have reached the side of the carriage.
Su Qi looked at Mrs. Fang with a serious expression, and the little girls who were sitting on the bottom of the carriage in the car and fell asleep because they were extremely tired, and a smile slowly spread from the corners of her lips to the tips of her eyebrows.
Mrs. Fang would never have thought that the medicinal effect of the sweat medicine would actually be shown at this time.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught a glimpse of the untimely smile on Su Qi's face, and Fang Pozi immediately realized that something was wrong, and the moment Su Qi pulled the corner of her mouth, she pounced over and made a gesture to cover her mouth!
But Mrs. Fang was still a step slower after all.
"Murder, death!" The next moment, Su Qi suddenly screamed, his tone was very poignant, and the listener was moved.
