8. Hunger
Zhan Yi and Qing Dai haven't eaten for half a day since they drank a bowl of porridge brought by Mama Liu in the morning, and they feel hungry at this time. What's more, the chaos in this house is that the clothes are already a little panicked, and Qingdai has long realized that something is wrong. However, she is small and weak, and there is no one around her to call, and she can't do any of her empty thoughts. It's not even a solution to your own hunger.
Wait any longer, it's going to get dark. Qing Dai felt that if she waited any longer, the two sisters would probably starve to death. Among the two of them, it is obviously impossible to expect to find a way to get pampered to grow to such a big stained clothes, so she has to come forward in person. She took the hand that stained her clothes, raised her head and said, "Go find Mama, find something to eat." ”
Dipping clothes didn't realize what Qing Dai was talking about, but she was very accustomed to obeying her sister.
So the sisters walked out of the empty yard holding hands and began to feel in the direction of the kitchen.
It's just that the sisters are so big, but they have never been in the kitchen, and they really don't know where the kitchen is. Out of the courtyard, the sisters didn't know where to go, Qingdai keenly found that she didn't know any of the people she occasionally met who came and went in a hurry! Where are all the original subordinates in the Sun Mansion?
Qing Dai pulled the clothes that were about to open her mouth to call people: "Go to Qingyuan Building and look for yarn." "Familiar and reliable people know the whereabouts of only the silk yarns.
Qingyuan Lou knew the way, and under Qing Dai's reminder, the two sisters dodged and slipped all the way to Qingyuan Lou along the corner of the grass, and the back garden became more and more inaccessible, so that the sisters were not found all the way. Qingdai never forgets to pay attention to people, but it is a real child's heart to stain clothes, and she feels that her sister's actions are like hiding cats, and she is so excited that she forgets to be hungry.
From a distance, I saw two mothers-in-law with big shoulders and round waists guarding outside the Qingyuan Building, and neither of these two mothers-in-law and sisters knew each other. Qing Dai grabbed the stained clothes, frowning and wondering how to get around. Xu is Tibetan cat is addicted, and he consciously entered the game state, and quietly said in Qingdai's ear: "There is a dog hole in the back wall, we can drill through it!" ”
This dog hole is simply for the sisters, the size is just enough to get through the clothes, and as for the green daisy, it is even more stress-free.
The courtyard was quiet, and there was no sound at all. Qing Dai's heart sank, where did they go? And those people who were quarantined later, where have they gone?
She didn't give up, she dragged the clothes to look for it room by room, and found several people in a locked room in the corner. People are fine, but they just fall to the ground as if they are lifeless. Qing Dai saw it through the crack in the window, and whispered: "Silk yarn!" Silk yarn! ”
Several people in the room even reacted, stumbling to the window: "Who is it?" Did you let us out?"
Dipping clothes said: "Sister, I am staining clothes." ”
Jiang Sha said in a hurry: "Little Ancestor, why are you here!" Hurry up, don't spread the disease to you! ”
Qing Dai sighed, these confused bastards must not have found out that they had fallen into a trap.
She opened her mouth and said, "Sister Jiangsha, I'm Qingdai, let me ask you, have any of you been sick these days?" ”
Several people in the room were taken aback: "Second Miss? Can you speak? "And so fluent and organized!
Qingdai was impatient: "Stop talking nonsense! Are any of you sick? ”
She replied, "We haven't found any signs of illness, but we haven't eaten water for a few days, and we can't get diarrhea even if we want to." ”
The youngest Beth cried out: "Miss, the slave is so hungry, no, she is so thirsty...... The slaves and maids are not sick, let us go out, how can we do without us by our side? ”
Qing Dai sighed: "Go out? If you don't think about it, you won't be able to save your life! ”
She has clearly realized that not only the silk yarn and them, but also her own life and that of the clothes are in jeopardy! Of course, the most dangerous thing now should be Li Haizhu!
She thought about it for a while, and took out a knife from her sleeve, which was the one she threw away when she grabbed Zhou, which Sun Zhangyang saw as she liked and later gave it to her. Qing Dai shoved it through the crack in the window, and let the yarn pry open the bolted window. It's just that the knife is not in hand, and the yarn has been hungry for a few days, and she has no strength, so she has no strength after only a few pries. Later, several people took turns to pry open a window. Qing Dai asked Jiang Sha to take a vessel that could hold water from the house, but fortunately, all the furnishings in the Qingyuan Building were not taken away, and the most petite orange Luo climbed out of the window, took a flower pot from Ru kiln to the lotus pond in the courtyard to scoop up water, and didn't care whether it was clean or not, first Gu Dong Gu Dong Niu drank a breath, and then took turns to give Jiang Sha a few to drink, as for the food, Qing Dai and the two sisters were still hungry. A few people drank some water to relieve their breath before they got together to discuss. A few people can't care about the weirdness of Qingdai's appearance, and it's good to have a capable person as the backbone of this time. Even if this backbone is just a two-year-old girl.
Qing Dai told everything she knew, after all, the silk yarn was Li Haizhu's big girl, and she hadn't seen the world, so she reacted immediately, this must be someone who wanted to take the opportunity of this plague to get rid of them. As for who this person is, it is already being called. Or Beth remembered: "That morning, Mama Fan just ate a fruit handed over by her cousin and began to have diarrhea after not too long!" ”
Qingdai nodded and said, "I'm afraid that she has already wanted to kill my mother." This time, Daddy was not at home, and it was just in time for the plague, so it would be foolish for her not to do it. I guess Mama Fan didn't get sick at all, she must have given Mama some medicine that can induce diarrhea! As soon as Mama has diarrhea, she can kick Mama out of the house and isolate you separately to deal with my mother. ”
Jiang Sha hated: "She is so vicious! Isn't she afraid that the master will come back, how to explain? ”
Qing Dai sneered: "By the time Daddy comes back, we will all be starving to death, and we will all die of hunger." The reasons are all ready-made, epidemic! If we can't wait for Daddy to come back, our corpse will be burned down, and there will be no trace of it, how can Daddy know how we died? ”
Silk yarn clenched her fists and said, "No! You can't just let her cover the sky with one hand! We must go out and report to the master! ”
Qingdai frowned: "Daddy is far away in Shandong, we can just go out, how can we go all the way to Shandong?" Besides, when Daddy comes back from Shandong, we probably won't have anything left. ”
She looked at the silk yarn: "Do you know the steward of the outer court?" It's best to find a reliable one to send a letter to my father, and it's also best to find the patriarch of the clan to come forward and find a reliable doctor to come in and treat my mother. As long as my mother is okay, we will all be fine. ”
When Orange Luo heard this, he shook his head and said, "I'm afraid that the stewards outside are not reliable." A few days ago, I heard some rumors that Miss Cousin was worried about her aunt's refusal to marry far away, and wanted to choose a capable housekeeper in our family to be her son-in-law. At this time, there are several younger stewards who are trying to curry favor with Miss Cousin. ”
Qing Dai and the others looked at each other, what can I do, this Lin Ruyu is really a last resort, this Sun Mansion is controlled by her quietly inside and out.
