Chapter 17: The Frightened Bird
"Can't we stay here for the rest of our lives?" Jia Ning looked at Bi Tao with a surprised face and raised an eyebrow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "Or are you not happy?"
Of course, it is impossible not to be happy.
And I can't help but be happy.
She was busy waving her hand, and suddenly she seemed to have discovered something very important, looked at her and exclaimed, "Miss, you have recovered your memory, do you remember the past?"
Jianing looked at her flawlessly and smiled, "Yes, I'm fine." She said.
"That's great. The little maid screamed happily, full of joy, and seemed to be really excited for her to become better.
But is it really good?
Jianing listened to her and said, "Miss, you just regained your memory, should we recuperate for a few more days and then go back to the house." Bi Tao looked embarrassed. Seeing that she was unmoved, she said mysteriously, "Miss, have you found out?" There are several black-clothed people with knives coming up from Zhuangzi, and they don't look like good people. I searched several times, but I didn't see anyone in the village, and I wondered if it had something to do with these men in black. Let's stay and see first, and wait for the Zhuang family to appear and say a word to their ward before leaving. ”
Bi Tao said as if Ken had a point, Jianing stared at her for a long time, just when Bi Tao thought she would agree with her opinion to stay,
Jianing said in a firm tone, "Don't wait, let's set off today, you go to the kitchen to get meat first, and then go to the village to find a coachman to come over." ”
Bi Tao was stunned for a moment.
Don't wait, what does the eldest lady mean? Could it be that she knows about the disappearance of these people, Bi Tao is secretly frightened.
What happened last night? Why did the eldest lady rush back home, did she really know something?
And the black-clothed people who appeared inexplicably in Zhuangzi, why did they come to Zhuangzi? Why did the eldest lady avoid mentioning these black-clothed people.
Could it be that they are here for the eldest lady, or that these people were all called by the eldest lady.
The deeper Bi Tao thought about it, the more frightened she became.
This is impossible, except for the house, the eldest lady does not come out of the second door, and she has never seen the eldest lady meet anyone.
Jiang Mansion, Madame's maiden family, that is even more impossible, no one in Jiang Mansion has learned the news of Madame's death, and they don't know that the eldest lady is in Zhuangzi, no matter how rich Jiang Fu is, he can't hire those people in black.
The men in black looked more like strangers, but in the morning they stopped her for questioning, and after learning that she was the eldest lady's maid, they let her go back to the house, obviously these people were acquainted with the eldest lady.
The more Bi Tao thought about it, the more confused she became. Where did the Zhuang Tou family and the little chubby girl family go?
Everything seems to be getting farther and farther off the rails.
An unknown sense of fear firmly enveloped Bi Tao, she didn't dare to ask any more, and walked out of the house with her head down.
When Bi Tao walked away, Jianing lazily retracted his gaze.
She whispered to the little thing rubbing her leg, "When I'm done with this meal, I'll let you into the woods." ”
When the little thing heard this, it shook its little tail like a chrysanthemum petal vigorously, and screamed.
"You don't want to go back?" asked Jianing tentatively.
The little thing stuck out its tongue and licked her embroidered shoes, her eyes were wet, and she nodded aggrievedly.
"I can't take you back. Jianing sighed, her eyes staring unfocused.
She still has a lot of work to do, and I'm afraid she doesn't have the energy to take care of it.
The little thing seemed to know what she was thinking, and screamed, unwilling to leave.
Jianing picked it up, stroked its snow-white and soft hair, and silently comforted it.
At the same time, Bi Tao returned to her small bungalow worriedly.
With a panicked look, she took a bag from under the bed, which she had brought this morning.
She did not go to the kitchen as Jianing instructed, but hurried towards Zhuangzikou.
The man in black in the courtyard glanced at her in surprise, and Bi Tao quickly walked past them.
She clutched the burden in her hand and glanced back nervously at the four men in black.
The four of them stood lazily and talked, looking at her amusedly.
Bi Tao hurriedly turned around and rushed out towards Zhuangzikou without stopping.
As soon as he rushed to the mouth of Zhuangzi, he accidentally hit a human wall, and the burden fell to the ground with a "snap".
"Which one is so short-eyed that he dares to hit the master. ”
Li Tianci's hand holding the brocade box slid downward, and there was an extra hand in the air to support the brocade box, Li Tianci smacked, smiled dryly and took the brocade box that Zheng Yuanchang handed over again, sighing in his heart and being seen through by Brother Yuanchang again.
At this time, the peach was like a frightened bird, seeing that the burden was knocked to the ground, her face turned pale, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one quickly pounced on the burden.
Seeing that it was a little maid, Li Tianci touched his nose, and could only admit that he was unlucky, he was a dignified man who couldn't deal with a little maid.
Under Zheng Yuanchang's perceptive gaze, Li Tianci said to her, "Be careful when you walk in the future." ”
Bi Tao hurriedly rolled up the burden on the ground and didn't raise his head, and rushed out of Zhuangzi directly after dividing five by two.
Zheng Yuan glanced at Bi Tao and stepped into Zhuangzi with Li Tianci.
The four guards in the courtyard looked solemn when they saw Zheng Yuanchang and Li Tianci coming in.
"Who is that little maid who went out just now?" asked Zheng Yuanchang.
"It seems to be Miss Lu's maid. One of the guards replied.
"Where's Miss Lu?"
"After I came back, I was in the house all the time and never came out. ”
"Brother Yuan Chang. Li Tianci held the brocade box in his hand and felt full of pressure.
"Brother Yuan Chang, I asked you ........... just now," Li Tianci said in a low voice.
"You are obstructing official business, do you know it? Zheng Yuanchang's face turned cold, staring at him and saying word by word.
"Miss Lu is also innocently implicated. Li Tianci muttered.
"How do you know she's innocent?" he said.
There is no innocent person who will cover up the evidence.
"I trust my instincts and believe in Miss Lu's personality. ”
Brother Yuan Chang must not be allowed to take Miss Lu to the Metropolitan Procuratorate, in case His Majesty puts her in prison in anger, Miss Lu is not dead. Regardless of whether Miss Lu is guilty or not, this reputation will be damaged.
"Brother Yuan Chang, we can ask Miss Lu in private first. Li Tianci said stammeringly.
"Well, as you say. ”
"What? you agreed?" Li Tianci couldn't believe his ears, but Brother Yuan Chang actually agreed so simply.
As for being so excited, Zheng Yuanchang pouted.
"The premise is that Miss Lu is willing to cooperate. He said.
"Brother Yuan Chang, don't worry about this, I will talk to Miss Lu well. Li Tianci smiled happily, and a pair of thick eyebrows and big eyes suddenly shone brightly.
As long as Brother Yuan Chang promised to let Miss Lu go, this matter would be much easier.
He jumped up happily and said, "I'll go into the house and talk to Miss Lu." ”
