Chapter 13 Survival

Xie Shi was stunned for a moment, Yin Nuan Xinshan she knew, but she never thought that he would be so attentive to a servant girl.

"Ah Nuan, can you tell me why you are so persistent in saving that servant girl? After all, there are hundreds of handmaidens in Yin Luo, and according to Yin Luo's temperament, it may be difficult for a large part of them to have a good death, how can you save it?"

"Mother. Yin Nuan said slowly, "Although it can't be saved, this maid called the water slave is different." ”

Xie Shi was puzzled, "How is it different?"

Yin Nuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "In this family, apart from you and your uncle, that maid is the only one who has taken the initiative to protect her son, although in this place, she can't even protect herself." Mother, this is something that even my father has never done. ”

Xie Shi was silent for a moment when he heard this. Yin Nuan was worried that her mother had misunderstood something, so she explained again, "Mother, you have always done a good job, and I am very grateful for what Mother has done for her son." ”

"Well, I don't need to explain anything. Xie Shi raised his hand and shook it to stop him from continuing, then propped his elbows on the table, rubbed his temples and sighed, "Ah Nuan, if you want to save it, go and save it, you are smarter than Ah Mu, and you can always decide things well." ”

It's just that you're still too young.

The last sentence Xie Shi finally didn't say, there are some things, if you don't face them, you will never know what to do next. Besides, the ability to survive in the Yin family has nothing to do with age.

After this torture was over, the water slave was finally not dragged back, although her feet hurt so much, but compared to those sand and stones, being able to step on the grass in shoes and socks was a good ending for her now.

When he returned to the dining room, it was already about midnight, and it was dark in his eyes, so the water slave went directly to the place where he lived. On the way, I met Chef Li, she stood at the courtyard gate outside the dining room, looking anxiously in the direction of the water slave, and hurriedly stepped forward when she saw the water slave:

"Why have you been there for so long, but are you okay?"

The water slave gritted his teeth and straightened his back when he saw her, trying to make himself look as good as possible.

"It's nothing, Sister Yunxiu has something to order, so it delayed the hour. ”

"That's good. Chef Li breathed a sigh of relief.

"Chef Li. The water slave bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your concern, but if it's okay, the maid will go back first." ”

"Hey, it's okay. Seeing that her face was pale and haggard, Chef Li couldn't help but be more concerned, "Come back quickly, you must be tired after being busy for so long." ”

The water slave left steadily step by step, and when he was about to go to his room, he looked back, and saw that Chef Li was still standing in place looking in his direction, so he smiled.

This Yin family is really hell, and there will be one or two people who are looking at themselves with a little concern.

As soon as she entered the house, the water slave's body was weak, and her feet were like stepping on a needle mountain, and the pain was so painful that she couldn't bear it anymore and fell straight to the ground. Then, as if all her strength had been exhausted, she gritted her teeth and couldn't move her feet.

The water slave opened his mouth slightly and took a few deep breaths, and then like a fish dying on the river beach, he screamed a few times, buried his head in the crook of his arm, and spread low in this dilapidated space with a whimper of despair.

Yin Nong heard that the water slave came back, and when he arrived, he found that there was no light in the water slave house, and he heard a half ring by the door, and when he saw that there was no sound, he knocked on the door with some anxiety:

"Water slave, but I am Yin Nong. ”

In the middle of the sound, there seemed to be the sound of something dragging on the ground in the room, and then a dim light leaked out of the room, and the water slave replied in a somewhat hoarse voice:

"The door is not locked, Brother Yin Nong, please come in. ”

Yin Nong pushed open the door, and under the dim light, the water slave sat on a low stool not far from the door, unable to see the expression on his face clearly, only a pair of eyes reflected a faint light, looking at himself brightly. Yin Nong suddenly felt a little cramped, he stopped, stood by the door and stopped advancing. Seeing that the water slave looked at him with some doubts, and even planned to get up and walk towards him, Yin Nong hurriedly raised his hand to stop him: "Don't stand up." ”

Seeing that his tone was unusually eager, he stammered and explained: "It's okay for me to come, you don't have to ...... You don't have to stand up on your feet. ”

Said that he hurriedly took a few steps forward and put the things in his hand on the table, and hurriedly retreated to the door, before he spoke:

"This is some ointment to dissolve blood stasis and heal wounds, water slave, you can rub it, it will be better. ”

The water slave reached out and took it, and did not refuse. These things are tantamount to charcoal in the snow for her at this time, and she has no reason to refuse.

It's not a troublesome herb, but a more expensive ointment, which I think costs some money.

"The water slave thanked Brother Yin Nong. ”

Yin Nong was in too much hurry, and the water slave didn't know what to say after thanking him, as if talking again would make him even more at a loss. Besides, climbing onto the low stool just now had almost exhausted her strength, and she really didn't have the energy to do anything else.

Yin Nong is a slave by Yin Luo's side, and he knows that what happened to him today is not strange, but the water slave doesn't understand why Yin Nong has been helping her, and it can even be said that he cares about her.

She could feel that this concern was different from Chef Li or Rong Liu, it was not aimed at her as a person, as if she was atoning for her sins.

For what, or for whom? The water slave endured the pain in his feet, and thought a little funny, could it be for Yin Luo?

Yin Nong was about to leave when he achieved his goal, but after leaving the door, he suddenly stood up again, and said to the water slave hesitantly:

"If the fourth lady summons you again, you should try to follow her wishes, maybe...... It would be better. Probably knowing that what he said was actually useless, so in the end his voice gradually lowered.

"I understand, thank you Brother Yin Nong for your kindness. The water slave sincerely thanked him. Perhaps she could not understand the concept of complete obedience and hard work of these slaves in her life, but she and her own life were not incompatible.

The next day, in a gorgeous and extreme courtyard of the Yin family, Yin Luo, the fourth lady of the Yin family, suddenly rushed out of it angrily. Then a servant girl hurried out.

"Fourth lady, you slow down. Yunxiu hurriedly followed, and said carefully, "The maid asked someone to carry the soft sedan chair over." ”

"Hmph. Yin Luo still said resentfully, "What kind of thing is his Xie family? It's just that the marriage between the elder brother and the princess is gone, and the grandmother actually warned me to make me have a better attitude." Besides, no matter how much support the Xie family has, he Yin Nuan is just a concubine after all. ”

"Fourth lady?" Yun Xiu called cautiously.

"That's right. Yin Luo suddenly asked, "How was that servant girl yesterday?"

"Although my foot was injured, it didn't affect my walking. ”

"That's good. As if she had finally found a place to vent her anger, Yin Luo gritted her teeth and said, "It's not interesting to be killed so lightly." Yin Nuan's shaft is just bad for me all day long, and the maid who doesn't know where to get it is also an eyesore. ”

When Yin Luo asked people to summon the water slave to serve again, the water slave had almost foreseen the scene of his death. If this continues, let alone return to the palace, I am afraid that it will become a luxury to get out of this place alive in this life.
