18. Truth 1
The mood of entering the small black room for the second time was much better than the first time, and a light smile even appeared on the corner of Tang Qing's mouth, and Wu Xinlian, who accidentally caught a glimpse, felt cold in her heart.
Compared with the previous encounter of being dragged all the way and thrown on the ground, this time the two of them can be said to have been invited to a small black room.
"Sister Fuju, haven't you found out everything, why are you still locking up our sisters. Wu Xinlian first asked breathlessly.
"It's just that I found out and invited you here, don't you know what the two sisters have done?" Fleur said coldly, and turned away.
Even if the way of coming in is different, there is still no change in the room, it is still dark and not in the middle of winter, and there is only a small window in the whole room, which can pass through a few rays of light.
Although the window of Tianzi grid is small, it is enough for a child's body to pass through, but the top of the window is too high, and no person who is more than one meter tall can not open and close the window.
"Xiaoqing, what the hell is going on, there can't be a problem with mung bean soup, why did Sister Mei still lock us up after everything was clarified?" Wu Xinlian was worried in her heart.
"Don't worry, it's already like this, it's better to rest and recharge. Tang Qing didn't bother to explain more to Wu Xinlian.
"Don't! How can I not worry, you said before that we would be able to escape soon, but now that you are locked up in a small black room again, you are still so unhurried, you can tell me if you have any idea in your heart, you are very proud to see me jumping up and down, right? "Probably because the psychological pressure given by Mei Niang was too great before, Wu Xinlian, who had been pretending to be a good sister, finally couldn't help but break out.
"What am I worried about, what am I thinking, is it useful to sue you? I told you before that I would be able to escape soon, you don't believe it, I have some connections everywhere, so that you don't always run to Mei Niang, and you don't listen, and you have to send a mung bean soup over." Sister Xinlian, what is there in Mei Niang's place, which makes you so obsessed, even if you risk being a goof, you have to please her, you can also tell me to listen to it. Even if he was in a good mood, Tang Qing was annoyed when he was questioned by Wu Xinlian.
"I, what can I think about Mei Niang, what is she worth thinking about, what are you talking about. I'm just trying to get them to let their guard down and think we're bent on staying in the house. Wu Xinlian is a little lacking in confidence.
"I don't care what you want from Mei Niang, you remember, just don't drag me and Qi Yu down, if necessary, I won't care about you. Tang Qing patted the futon on the wooden bed, straightened his clothes, sat down and said.
Wu Xinlian gritted her teeth, endured her resentment, and was taught a lesson by a little girl who was a few years younger than herself, and she really couldn't be convinced. It was also during this time that Tang Qing's attitude made her realize that this little girl was not simple, and she was an outlier if she didn't do it.
At that moment, neither of them spoke again. Wu Xinlian also sat quietly on the other side of the creaking wooden bed.
Tang Qing turned his hands behind his head and lay on the bed with his head on his back, his face a little melancholy, as if he was thinking about something important.
It's been three days since I was locked up in a small black room, and two days ago, someone politely brought food in on time and on time. Although the food delivered in is not as rich as the one that was taken in the cafeteria before, it is much better than the first time I was locked in a small black room, at least I don't have to eat the unpalatable black steamed buns again. Sometimes it was to send a few white flour steamed buns and two dishes in, and sometimes there was white rice, Wu Xinlian almost thought that the two of them had changed places as guests.
But on the third day, I don't know if someone forgot that there were two girls locked up in the small black room. Until dinner, no one came to deliver the food.
Although the two people in the small black room are both adults psychologically, they are still children under the age of ten physically, and they can't resist the hunger of not eating a few meals. Not to mention that both of them have space, as long as they reach into the space, they can fill their stomachs, delicious food is within reach, and the temptation to resist is stronger.
But rarely, both of them would rather go hungry than reveal their secrets.
In the darkness, the broken wooden door of the house creaked open, and it was evening, and the sky was still hung with red Caixia, and the light that suddenly ran into the house pierced the two people in the room from opening their eyes.
When the door was carefully closed again, and through the light from the window, Tang Qing found that it was Aunt Chen who came in, and she was still carrying a bamboo basket in her hand.
Lifting the covered cloth, the food in the basket was still steaming, and the two people, who had not eaten since the morning, were uncomfortably hooked by the aroma of the food.
"You two are starving, everyone is busy packing up today, no one cares about you, and I have time to bring you food in the evening. A trace of guilt flashed in Aunt Chen's eyes.
Wu Xinlian smiled and took the bamboo basket in Aunt Chen's hand and took out the plates in the basket one by one. In the basket are four white flour steamed buns, and two dishes, and the dishes in the dishes look like they are mixed with a large pot of dishes. However, there have been too many days without eating, and Wu Xinlian doesn't care very much about it.
"Aunt Chen, thank you so much this time, both of us sisters have been hungry for a day, and this hungry taste is really uncomfortable. Wu Xinlian handed the bamboo basket back to Aunt Chen.
Tang Qing just smiled on the side and didn't say anything.
"Okay, I won't disturb you two eating, I'll go back to the kitchen to help first. Aunt Chen avoided Tang Qing's scrutiny, picked up the basket and walked out of the door quickly.
"Aunt Chen specially brought us food, and you didn't say thank you, at such a young age, why is your temper so weird. "It may be that during this period of time, the two of them have been acting as sisters for too long, Wu Xinlian has not yet acted, and she will never say it before when she complains so bluntly. After saying that, she couldn't wait to take out her chopsticks and want to eat the vegetables from the plate.
didn't expect Wu Xinlian to start so quickly, Tang Qing didn't have time to say anything, so she could only reach out and knock off the chopsticks in her hand first.
I haven't eaten anything for a day, so I can't help but have a kind person send food in, Tang Qing first looked at the person who delivered the food with a weird yin and yang, and even said a word of gratitude, and then he knocked off the chopsticks in his hand too much. Wu Xinlian couldn't suppress the anger in her heart, and said angrily: "What do you mean, don't eat yourself, don't let others eat, you're sick." ”
Tang Qing sighed and said, "Do you know why the two of us were locked in?"
"Why, you have to go through old accounts, yes, I shouldn't have sent mung bean soup to Mei Niang, but how did I know that sending a soup could also send disaster. Wu Xinlian was a little hysterical, since she was reborn, things have not been as smooth as she imagined. originally wanted to rely on the Tang family and go to the capital to settle down first, but he was unlucky and kidnapped halfway. wanted to please Mei Niang and get something like that, but she was framed for no reason and thrown into a small black house. It seems that the good luck before being reborn has been exhausted by a dream of going back in time.
"If I want to go through the old accounts, I will already go over with you, as for whether I am still angry with you at this time, you haven't thought about it, why Mei Niang knew that the poisoning of that person was none of our business, but still locked the two of us up; Tang Qing hated that iron could not become steel, and she didn't want to show herself in front of Wu Xinlian that she was not in line with the six-year-old child, but there must always be one person in the brains of the two people.
"Why, why, you ask me why, how do I know so much, if I knew everything, I wouldn't be locked up. Wu Xinlian was a little impatient, and it didn't take a few minutes, "Wait, the doctor diagnosed that it was poisoning, the mung bean soup I served over was fine, and the meal at noon wouldn't be so late, could it be that there was a problem with the medicine for that big villain." After being locked up for so many days, Wu Xinlian's whole person was filled with self-pity, and when she thought about it at this time, her IQ was a little back.
"But there's a problem with the medicine, what's the matter with the two of us, shouldn't we catch the person who poisoned us?" Wu Xinlian still couldn't figure it out.
"Most of the people who boil the medicine are trustworthy to Mei Niang, maybe they are the girls in her house, you have been too close to them during this time, and it is normal to worry about you. Tang Qing added lightly.
When Wu Xinlian heard this, she couldn't help but feel a little weak, and this time she was burned with a fireless fire.
In fact, the reason why Mei Niang locked up the two of them, Tang Qing also vaguely guessed something, but it was not what Wu Xinlian thought. The two of them were not implicated, but were offered under the guise of being offered, and two days ago, someone brought in good food and vegetables, and that was because the two of them still had use value. Today everyone is busy going their separate ways, who remembers the two unlucky ghosts who were locked up in a small black room.
At this point, Tang Qing was not worried that Qi Yu would not be sent food, he was too valuable in the weight of that Zeng boss, so he had to take care of him no matter what.
"No, even so, if you don't let me eat, you can't say it, why knock off my chopsticks, there is not even water here, can you still use it if you fall to the ground?" Wu Xinlian was only empty for a while, and when it came to her own survival, she was still unambiguous.
Tang Qing couldn't help but hold his forehead and sighed, if he was still the age of his previous life, he would be able to add a few more wrinkles in the past few days, and he would be angry. She paused, organized the language she wanted to speak, and calmed the anger in her heart: "What kind of person is Aunt Chen, anyone can bring us food, but she can't, she has never been profitable, we are both locked up in a small black room, what good can she do for us." ”
Wu Xinlian also understood this truth in her heart, but still defended: "Maybe she just knows that we have been wronged, and we will be released soon, so we will ask for personal favors in advance." After saying that, I also felt very far-fetched.
Tang Qing's face clearly wrote: Idiot, I really don't want to talk to you. But in view of the fact that it was a friend who fell together, he still made up a knife: "At noon on the day of the accident, we were both in the kitchen, after lunch, did Aunt Chen go out, I saw her walking in the direction of Mei Niang's house." ”
Wu Xinlian was still very confused: "But isn't Aunt Chen often like this? Doesn't she usually let you help her watch the pot when she cooks, but she goes out for a walk?"
Tang Qing thought for a while and said, "Do you remember, when the mung bean soup was served that day, she took out a Longquan porcelain bowl and said that it was given to her by Mei Niang the day before." ”
"It's just to send a bowl, what's the matter, Mei Niang has always taken care of her like this?"
"This bowl is nothing, but it definitely wasn't given to her by Mei Niang the day before. No one knows better than me what is in the kitchen cabinet, such a valuable bowl, I got it the day before, shouldn't I put it at home, and I didn't put it in the kitchen cabinet, she has been hiding it, and she is not afraid of knocking. In fact, at first, Tang Qing didn't care about it, but then Boss Zeng was poisoned, and she carefully scrutinized the conversation between Mei Niang and the doctor in the house, and she felt that it should be the most reasonable explanation.
"Isn't that right, these dishes are poisonous, she has nothing to do to harm us, she has harmed us in the small black room, and she still doesn't let us go?" Wu Xinlian picked up the dish on the table, and wanted to fall to the ground, but she was still a little reluctant in her heart, and she hadn't eaten for a day.
"It doesn't have to be Aunt Chen's hand, she may just feel guilty and come to bring us food. But she couldn't stop the people behind her. Don't eat this dish, the steamed bun should be fine, if you really don't worry, just peel the skin on the outside and eat the inside. Tang Qing took out the plate in Wu Xinlian's hand and put it back on the table.
Even if Tang Qing swore that the steamed buns were fine, Wu Xinlian was still stunned, she was already stunned by the truth revealed layer by layer, and she refused to reach out to take the steamed buns to eat.
Tang Qing picked up a white-flour steamed bun, gently tore the thin scalp on the surface, and raised it to Wu Xinlian's mouth: "Eat, the poison is immortal, only when you are full will you have the strength, and tomorrow at the latest, we can escape." ”
One news after another, Wu Xinlian was numb with shock, and she looked at Tang Qing in a daze.
Tang Qing also took out a steamed bun, didn't uncover the skin, and gnawed on it by himself.
