Chapter 52: Spring Cold
The night is as cool as water. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was clear that the weather was still sunny during the day, but the temperature suddenly dropped at night, and unlike the night when the moon and stars were sparse a few days ago, the sky was cloudy tonight, and there were faint signs of rain.
After several sneezes in quick succession, a series of rain sounds followed.
"It's raining?" Su Qi put down the book in his hand, took the silk cloth handed by Cuiluo and wiped his nose, "What day is today?"
For some reason, she always felt a little tightness in her chest today, and such a feeling had not appeared for a long time.
"Today is Qingming, in previous years, it would rain before Qingming, but this year's rain is a little late. Cui Luo spoke softly, with a shallow smile on her delicate eyebrows.
During the Qingming Festival, it rains a lot, and pedestrians on the road want to break their souls. Su Qi somehow appeared these two sentences in his heart, and the rain was raining, wanting to break his soul, wanting to break his soul......
"Cuiluo. Su Qi's face was faintly pale, and his tone of voice became urgent, "Has anyone ever been to the mansion today?"
Cuiluo didn't know why, and thought about it carefully before saying: "Today, there are no special people who have come to the house, but I heard that the old man met a shopkeeper in the Su family's shop early in the morning, oh, there is also a guy in the shop." ”
Su Qiru, who heard the word "buddy", suddenly stood up suddenly, and Cuiluo on the side was so startled that he couldn't stop whispering.
"Quick, quickly find someone you can trust, bring good wound medicine and go to the Drunken Yin Pavilion near Su Ji Rice Shop!" At this time, Su Qi's little face was still half bloody, how could she forget, what day was today? How could she forget......
Without waiting for Cuiluo to react, Su Qi said again: "Just send your cousin, the sooner the better!" Because of his close relationship with Cuiluo, Su Qi naturally also knew the situation of Cuiluo's family, Cuiluo's parents died early, and there were no relatives, except for a cousin who did some rough work in the outer courtyard. It just so happened that she lacked a man who could run errands, and seeing that Cuiluo's cousin was capable and good-hearted, she often sent him to do some errand work.
Seeing Su Qiyi's anxious appearance, Cui Luo ran out without asking too much, obviously taking Su Qi's instructions to run errands.
Looking at Cuiluo's departing back, Su Qifang stroked his chest and slowly exhaled. In her previous life, she met Jiang Tiesheng who only had one breath left on a rainy night during the Qingming Festival. That day, she was looking for news for Su Fangyuan to go out of the house, because there was something to delay and miss the hour, but she never thought that she would see Jiang Tiesheng lying in a weed when she passed by the Drunken Shade Pavilion.
At that time, she was really only eight years old, and she had the courage to drag Jiang Tiesheng to the door of Su Ji Rice Shop for help, braved the rain to knock on the door of Su Ji Rice Shop, and asked the guys in the rice shop to send him to the hospital overnight, which saved one of his lives.
Since she was reborn, many things have become different from her previous life, which has also caused Su Qi to almost forget about it, but now that she thinks about it, she didn't hesitate to order someone to go to the Drunken Shade Pavilion, hoping to save him. If he has nothing to do, if he has something, she is afraid that it will be difficult to pass this level in her heart, after all, Jiang Tiesheng helped her a lot in her previous life.
Because he was worried about Jiang Tiesheng's affairs, Su Qi couldn't sleep for a long time, and in the middle of the night, he simply opened his eyes and stared at the curtain on the top of the bed.
Su Qi didn't know how long it had been, and he finally felt a little sleepy, but he heard a slight sound in his ears.
The voice was so light, so light that you couldn't hear it if you didn't pay attention.
Today's night is Qingluan and Hongcalyx, two girls, the two of them are on duty in turn, and the location is also outside the house, but listening to this sound seems to be in the house.
Could it be a mouse? This idea was vetoed by Su Qi as soon as it appeared, she still knew the voice of the mouse, held her breath and listened carefully for a while, Su Qi felt more and more surprised.
How can it seem like someone is walking in the house? Su Qi turned his head slightly, and saw an unexpectedly familiar figure through the gap in the curtain. She was hunched over and walking very slowly through the room.
Su Qi slowly reached under the pillow and held a cold dagger, which she had prepared a long time ago, in order to use it to protect herself in case of an accident.
At this hour, Zizhi's figure suddenly appeared in the room, and Su Qi didn't think it would be a coincidence.
Zizhi seemed to be looking for something, and by a faint light, Su Qi saw Zizhi squatting down in front of her suitcase, turned her head and looked around, and confirmed that there was no movement before she took out a small object from her sleeve and stretched it out against the copper lock hanging on the suitcase.
After estimating the distance between himself and Zizhi, and confirming that Zizhi was concentrating on unlocking without noticing the direction he was in, Su Qicai tiptoed out of bed, and his movements were naturally extremely light. Because he was worried that there was Zizhi's helper outside the house, Su Qi did not pounce directly on Zizhi's side, but secretly paced behind her with his waist bent.
"Don't move. With this emotionless low shout, the dagger in Su Qi's hand had already reached Zizhi's neck.
Zizhi's body trembled violently, and the object in his hand also slid to the ground, and Su Qi saw that it was a key.
"If you want to live, it's better not to be silent. Su Qi said coldly, she knew for the first time that her voice could be so cold and piercing, "I know that the one from Fuyuan Hall sent you over, no matter what conditions she has for you, I can double it for you, if she coerces your family to force you to do something, I can protect your whole family, and even let you get out of slavery and regain your freedom." ”
Zizhi's heart sank, Su Qi's words surprised her more than when she suddenly put a dagger against her neck, and she couldn't help but have a weird feeling in her heart, this feeling was like being stripped naked and exposed in front of that person's eyes, as if nothing could be hidden from that person's eyes.
Zizhi's body couldn't stop shaking, but because she was afraid that her body shaking would hit the dagger on her neck, she couldn't help it.
"Tell me your plan, you'd better not think about anything else, otherwise not only will you die a miserable death, even if Xu Lian promises to protect your family, I have ten thousand ways to make their lives more painful than death. ”
Using someone else's family to threaten a person is often more useful than threatening the person himself, and Su Qi guessed that Xu Lian was most likely also threatening Zizhi's family.
The last glimmer of light in Zizhi's heart has been extinguished, this eldest lady is too evil, how can she ......
"I've also been a maid, so I understand your feelings and am willing to sympathize with you, what's more, you don't have a choice at all!" Su Qi's voice was like a poisonous snake spitting out a letter in the quiet night, which made people shudder.
Tonight may be in the spring cold, the weather is already a little cold, Su Qi did not put on his clothes but got out of bed directly, this will be already cold hands and feet, fortunately, the light in the room is dim, only to hide her pale face.
"Do you think that if you don't complete the task, Xu Lian will be able to let you go? Seeing that Zizhi didn't react for a long time, Su Qi added another sentence in her ear.
"The slave said, the slave and the maid all said......" Zizhi said timidly, and her body collapsed to the ground as if she had lost her strength.
