Chapter 35: Killing
The situation is tense right now. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć infoOn the surface, the power of Longpan is in full swing, but this does not mean that others are willing to surrender. The higher the status of Shifang City, the more people will only want to replace it. It can be said that if you step outside the gates, you will be full of enemies. That Sima Jian was just a businessman, but Qi Yi ignored it, he was not only a businessman, but also his wife's brother. What's more, he single-handedly founded the business alliance and clearly belonged to Longpan, but he was afraid that he had already become a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh of others. Alas, this time it was his carelessness, but he didn't expect that the enemy was not only Sima Jian, but even all of his wife's relatives would be cleared together. When Mrs. Wakes up, how should he Qi Yi face it?
Qi Yi suddenly remembered something: "Manager Peng, where is that person now?"
Chief Steward Peng was also pondering and digesting the words of Ting'er and the guards in his heart, but he didn't realize it for a while, and subconsciously said, "Who is it?" As soon as the words came out, he saw the general's face unkind to look at him. He suddenly lifted his spirits, stretched out his hand and patted his head, and said, "Oh, is the general asking that little beggar......?" Well, I saw that she was dirty, and she had rubbed her face and clothes, so I asked my servants to groom her up. ā
"Hmph. Qi Yi glanced at him, thinking that the older the old thing is, the more useless it becomes.
Madame fainted early, because the details of the matter were not yet known. There should be no doubt that the one who sent people to slaughter the village was only one of their enemies in Shifang City, or a few. However, there are hundreds of enemies in Shifang City, and this can still be brought to the table. In fact, it is like the stars in the sky, and it is impossible to count. Whoever committed this is not yet able to tell. Qi Yi thought, I don't know if I can launch one or two from the details of the day. However, the little girl was bathing, and he could not be interrogated now. Anyway, the so-called long-term consideration. He'd better go first and see how Madame is doing.
Sima Die opened his eyes leisurely.
"Xianggong. "My beloved stood in front of the bed, and the atmosphere in the room was harmonious, warm and peaceful, just like hundreds of days when I woke up from a nap in the past, nothing changed. Ah Ling did not appear, and did not bring such terrible news. Yes, all this was just a dream she had......
Sima Die sat up, pulled the corners of his stiff lips and smiled, and said, "I was really sleepy, and I actually made a ...... ......Before she finished speaking, her voice was choked, and two lines of tears had already rolled down her snow-white cheeks involuntarily: she wanted to convince herself that it was a dream, just a nightmare. But she has always been so smart and wise that she can't even deceive herself.
Qi Yi sighed and gently stepped forward to hug her into his arms.
"Cry. ā
As soon as the words fell, it was as if the floodgates had been opened, and in an instant, there was a cry in the house, and the sound of sobbing was like a sad complaint, even if it was an irrelevant bystander, the heart could not help but sink in the ears, like a heavy object, and it was difficult to laugh.
Chief Steward Peng stood under the eaves, his eyes narrowed, he looked up at the scorching sky outside, and said in his heart: "This day, I'm afraid it should change again." ā
ā¦ā¦
The maids really obeyed the instructions of Steward Peng, pressed a bell in the bath bucket, and washed it no less than six or seven or eight times, almost not peeling off a layer of her skin alive. Yes, when Ah Ling came out of the bath, the skin on his body was not white, but red and red, although it seemed to lack a little heat compared to the cooked shrimp, but if it was sprinkled with salt, it could barely be counted as a dish.
"Sister, I'm afraid this girl's clothes can't be worn. But you need to find a maid's clothes for her to change into?"
"No, you can't. The girl is the lady's honored guest, how dare she slack off?...... In this way, I see that the size of Mrs. two years ago is not much different from her, and I remember that there are some clothes in the box that Mrs. had not worn before, so I found them first. When I go back and ask my wife, she will think about it for her. By the way, if you want to find something plain and clean, don't be too bright...... "It's Ting'er who speaks." Qi Yi naturally didn't shoot her to death. After questioning, she was sent out. Steward Peng brought her over to help by the way.
Ting'er just saw Madame's attitude towards this Ah Ling girl outside the mansion with her own eyes, and she dared not pay attention to it in her heart. When the little maid saw the big maid beside her lady like this, her heart sank, and she secretly hated the loss of words, and immediately retreated, and the little contempt that rose when she saw this dirty girl like a beggar had already disappeared invisibly.
The maids dressed up Ah Ling. Then comb your hair in a fashionable bun. Ah Ling looked at herself in the mirror, almost unrecognizable.
Steward Peng looked at the little girl who was pushed out by the crowd, and his eyes didn't light up: the little girl was freshly dressed, and it was really pleasing to the eye. Dressed in a light blue shirt, it can be seen that it is a lady's thing. I think that at the beginning, this was handled by him when Mrs. first entered the house. At that time, there were as many as seven sets of shirts and dresses of the same style and different colors. No matter how much Madame likes it, she only wears one or two of them, and the color of this dress is probably too light, but I haven't seen Madame wear it. But the child in front of him has washed away the dust, and his small appearance is beautiful and lovely, maybe he is more suitable for this color than his wife.
"I'm going to see Ah Die!" Ah Ling stared at the stinky old man in front of him, although he now knew that people had good intentions, but he still couldn't erase the "hatred" that he sent someone to pull him away from Ah Die. A pair of eyes were full of anger, but the nose was almost not smoking.
Steward Peng looked amused: "Girl, no matter how crooked your mouth is, it will be crooked to the back of your head." Are you sure you want to see your husband like this...... Look at your family, Ah Die?"
The maids next to them didn't dare to laugh out loud, and lowered their heads one by one to laugh sullenly.
Ah Ling said angrily: "Don't talk nonsense, if Ah Die is ...... If you wake up and can't see me, you'll be scared. ā
Steward Peng looked at her skinny little body with a smile, and thought to himself, how old are you? Madame is afraid that she will be guarded by a general, how old are you, this little girl? He smiled slightly, and was about to make a joke, but when he touched the deep sadness in the eyes of this little girl, his heart trembled: Thinking of the report of Ting'er just now, Madame's house was attacked, and everyone died, and at present, there is only one child, who has worked hard and traveled thousands of miles to this Shifang City, how much sorrow and fear she should have suffered along the way?
Steward Peng instantly understood: presumably that sad and painful experience has been deeply rooted in his heart, so this child will be so insistent on being by his wife's side. Her own experience should be that she is unwilling to let someone close to her go through it again.
The smile on Steward Peng's face couldn't help but disappear, he looked at the child with heavy eyes, and said softly, "Don't worry. You've heard from the doctor before, haven't you......? Your family still needs to rest and recuperate. Why don't we have dinner and then go and see her?"
Ah Ling frowned, hesitated for a while, raised his head and resolutely said, "Okay, then eat!"
"......" Steward Peng choked up, and was ready to persuade her with words full of words, and suddenly gagged: Hey, what about the good feelings, you can't hold on? Where did all the worries on your face go just now?
As everyone knows, Ah Ling has been hungry all the way, although he has not been hungry, but he has always been hungry and full for several days, and there is no certainty. Today, since before entering Shifang City, the water and rice have not entered, but I have been worried about Ah Die since before, so I ignored it. It's okay that Steward Peng didn't mention it, and when it comes to eating, don't pretend. Some people are fools who don't eat or not! Hurry up and fill her stomach, she still wants to see Ah Die-in - in Ah Ling's heart, eating is eating, worrying about Ah Die's worry, and there is no conflict between the two.
Steward Peng had already ordered the preparation of the meal, and when the order was given, a table was filled in an instant. Ah Ling was dazzled. I really didn't know that food could make so many tricks. And everything was fragrant, which made her hungry...... No matter what, eat!
Before the big steward Peng could show off, he saw a flower in front of him, and the skinny little girl burst out with amazing speed, and in the blink of an eye, she threw herself in front of the table, and in the blink of an eye, she ...... Well, my mouth has been stuffed into a bun, and I'm swallowing it desperately. Madame's eldest maid Ting'er patted her back unhurriedly on the side and comforted: "Miss Ah Ling, you eat slowly, don't worry." Come, take a sip of soup first. That's right......"
When he was young, Qi Yi helped his wife out of the back hall, and what he saw in front of him was such a scene:
"Hmm. This one is delicious. Sister Ting'er, you are such a good person!"
"Hee-hee. Miss Ah Ling has won the prize. Come, you try this again. Let me tell you, this rock candy elbow, Madame likes it. ā
"Really?"
"Hmph, what about the old man? This is what the old man specially ordered his subordinates to prepare for you, and it doesn't even deserve a good sentence?
"Grandpa steward, grandpa steward, you are also a good person! hehe...... "All in all, if you eat, the world is good." Even the unreasonable stinky old man has become a "grandfather in charge". It can be seen that eating too much sugar will inevitably sweeten the mouth, which makes sense.
"Poof!" Sima Die couldn't help but smile as he looked at these harmonious groups.
Qi Yi couldn't help frowning: Where did this wild girl come from, there are no rules at all, and these two, one old and one young, are both old people in the house, how can they laugh so much, let others see, when what is the place in his mansion?
"Steward Peng. ā
"General, ma'am. ā
Hearing the general's voice, Steward Peng and Ting'er immediately looked solemn, and there was no longer any smile on their faces. At the same time, he bowed back. Ah Ling just bit a large piece of rock candy elbow in her mouth, and when she heard that Ah Die was coming, she hurriedly tried to swallow it, but she got stuck in her throat and almost choked herself. Ting'er glanced up slightly, and it was very clear in his heart that the general's face was by no means kind. She only hesitated for a moment, and then heard her lady say urgently: "Ting'er!"
"Yes, ma'am. "Well, no matter how dark the general's face is, there is always a lady on top. Ting'er shrank his head, turned around with his ears covered, and straightened Ah Ling's back with his hands and feet.
"Ahem...... Thank you, Sister Ting'er...... Ah Die!"
Ah Ling struggled to finally swallow the meat in her stomach, and immediately turned back happily. However, just as she was excited to rush towards Ah Die as usual, she saw a tall figure beside Ah Die. Ah Ling's face changed, and the rice bowl in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang", and fell to pieces.
Is that......
Yes. My brother said that it was...... Killing.
