Chapter 24: Escape

Escape

After driving for a while, Mu Qing sat down by the curtain and asked through the curtain, "Do you still have a piggyback?" ”

After a while, Ada replied, "No more." Why did Rokuro secretly follow his mother? But what happened? ”

"You drive your car slowly, let's talk as we go." Mu Qing lifted half of the curtain and looked at Ada's silhouette, thinking that he had been fighting horses for many years, and he had followed Du Ruhui loyally. Du Ruhui deliberately left him to take care of himself before leaving, and he must be a credible person. But the one who should have relied on her, who was by her side to shield her from calamity, now did not know that she was in a quagmire. She longed for him to appear suddenly, hiding behind him, just like that night in Yuhang, burying the whole person in his warm breath that taught people to be stable and reassuring, and isolated the wind and waves.

"Qi Niang?" Ah Liu gently touched her with her elbow a few times, and she was stunned for a while, she shook her head, forcing herself to return to what she should be facing in front of her, it is good that someone can shelter her from the wind and rain, but she still remembers that when she left Yuhang, she secretly made up her mind that she must not be a burden to him, and she should not have the idea of escaping at this time.

"My father wants to hire me as a concubine with Du Yan, this matter has been agreed, I'm afraid it's just a few days." Mu Qing tried his best to keep his tone steady, but he still felt that his voice trembled slightly.

Ada was also stunned for a long time, and asked in a muffled voice: "Does my mother have a plan?" ”

After Wan's left last night, at first she was angry with her parents, and she was confused for a while, but in the second half of the night, the relationship calmed down, and after thinking about it, she had a calculation in her heart, and there was only one way to think about it, and she cut the mess quickly. She took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, repeating it twice, trying to keep her mind clear, the nail of her thumb tightly pinched into the belly of her index finger, she bit her back molars, and made a decision, "I thought about it and went to my father to make my mind clear, but after thinking about it, I am afraid that it is useless to argue." Today, Rokuro secretly followed, which is enough to show that my father is defensive of me, if I pretend to know nothing, he may be less guarded, and there will be a chance to escape, if I go to him to confess, it can only provoke him to be more guarded, and I can only sit and wait for death. ”

"So, isn't my mother going to the Pufa Temple to offer incense today?" Ada continued to drive the car unhurriedly, his body did not move at all, and there was no change in the speed of the car, Mu Qing admired it from the bottom of his heart, and secretly said to himself, in this way, Ada is really a stable and capable person, with his help, the odds of victory are much greater. Thinking like this, the hanging heart slowly fell back a little.

"There is a curfew in Wu County, and you can't run at night. Early tomorrow morning, I said that I would go to the Pufa Temple with Yinghua, and I only quietly brought a few important things, and we went to Jiangdu. It's just that you have to try your best to be as fast as possible, and before they find out and find people, they go out of the territory of Wu County. Is this possible? Mu Qing asked.

Adarius pondered for a moment, "Try your best, or you may be eighty percent sure." ”

There seemed to be two tides of cold and hot in Mu Qing's chest colliding with each other, stirring her heart to relax one by one, as if something was about to emerge from her chest. After arguing for a while, he finally leaned limply against the wall of the car, gasping heavily. Ah Liu stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand, only to feel that his fingertips were cold, "Let's leave like this, if Supervisor Du is not there and gets angry, what can we do?" How do you explain this? Aliu asked in a panic.

"Explain as you want." Mu Qing said coldly, "My father is good at weighing the pros and cons, knowing that I have a marriage contract with Du Jiaerlang in advance, and after careful calculation, I feel that Du Yan can bring him greater benefits, so he wants to send me to the same goods. ”

Ada turned his head and glanced at her, at the age of fourteen, the cardamom young lady, it was a good time to frolic in the backyard of the boudoir, the figure in front of her was still significantly weak, and the little lady with a cowardly look in her eyes had already taken on her own destiny. He thought that he was also leaving home at about this age, and he felt a little pity in his heart for a while, "Is my mother afraid?" ”

Mu Qing shook his head slightly, and then laughed, "Don't be afraid, isn't there still you." With that, he smiled at Ah Liu again, trying to make himself look relaxed.

Ada laughed under his breath, and after carefully planning tomorrow's events, he slowly went home, preparing in secret. In the afternoon, the courtyard was lonely, everyone was taking a nap to escape the heat, Wan led Yinghua and quietly entered Mu Qing's east wing. Yinghua lowered her head, and faintly saw that her face was especially tear-stained, and her eyes were red and swollen. Wan didn't say much, and his tone changed after he opened his mouth and said a few words. Mu Qing hurriedly restrained her, "Mother-in-law and restrain herself, she was sad and cried for a while, and her eyes were swollen, and it was not good to teach others to ask questions." As she spoke, she casually got a cup of white chrysanthemum herbal tea, and taught her to dip her fingers in the tea and apply it lightly around her eyes.

poured another glass, pulled Yinghua over, dipped his fingers in it, gently pressed her eye sockets, and wiped the tears from her face. "Yinghua, listen to me carefully, your aunt is determined to let you go, because she doesn't want you to be wronged here. If you are not happy, she will not be happy, and if you live freely, her heart will be stable. If you can't bear her, do your best to be decent so that you can take her with you. Do you understand? ”

Yinghua looked at her in a daze, snorted, and finally nodded his head heavily, and bowed to Wan Shi with a clumsy gesture. Wan's eyes were red, and two tears came down. Mu Qing also felt sour in his heart, thinking that it would be difficult for their mother and daughter to see each other again, so he had to follow her to vent.

It was easy to wait for them to recover, and instructed Ah Liu to bring cold water, let the two of them clean their faces, and evenly spread some fat powder on their faces to cover their tears. Wan Shi took out a string of five-baht coins from his underwear, and a gold cake, and handed them to Mu Qing, "My body is here, Yinghua is still young, and I still bother you to keep it." She will point to your sister in the future. ”

At night, Mu Qing watched Ah Liu clean up all the softness, just two beaded flower heads, the plain gold hairpin given by Mrs. Lu before she died, and the pair of Luan bird bracelets from Yu Li, those dresses and silks were all abandoned, but fortunately, the big box with all her net worth was taken to Jiangdu by Du Ruhui.

Qixi Festival is approaching, the night wind has been slightly cool, Mu Qing stood in front of the window for a while, closed his eyes and went through the events of tomorrow in his mind one by one, and whispered a few words to Ah Liu, he must be steady, he must not mess up, and finally let out a sigh of relief, and Ah Liu and the two of them lay down on the couch and clothes, squinted indiscriminately, and the sky was bright.

At the breakfast table, as always, Chen and Liulang arrived first, Liulang was secretly weak because of the incident that Mu Qing broke his heel yesterday, and he didn't dare to look at Mu Qing, and he was evasive between his words. After a while, Wan Shi also led Yinghua in, Yinghua lowered his head, followed closely behind Wan Shi, depressed. "Yinghua, what's wrong?" Chen frowned and looked her up and down, "But you're not feeling well?" ”

Mu Qing's heart suddenly rose to his throat, and his head was a little cloudy, Yinghua was so young that he couldn't hide it. Just thinking about how to respond, Wan Shi said indifferently: "It's good, but I heard early in the morning that Qi Niang was going to take her to Puji Temple to receive Qiao, and she wanted to buy some begging things, so people wilted." I don't want to say anything. ”

"It's the seventh sister's birthday in two days, and Yinghua's current age should also follow the rules of her daughter's family, which should be." When Gu Li entered the door, he heard what Wan Shi said, nodded and said, "Qi Niang thought of us in front of her." ”

After breakfast, Gu Li and Liulang left first. Mu Qing led Yinghua to the door, and Ada had already set up the car and waited. Wan was afraid that Yinghua would be sad and show his flaws, so he didn't go out to see him off. Yinghua stopped and looked back after taking two steps, Mu Qing squeezed her hand tightly and whispered in her ear: "Since you have chosen to move forward, don't look back." If you hesitate, it's better not to go. Yinghua really didn't look back, got straight into the car, bit her lip and shrunk in the corner of the car.

Ada drove the car unhurriedly, took a turn in Guangfu Town, and drove out of the city. Mu Qing raised the curtain and asked, "Ada, is there anything abnormal?" ”

"Don't worry, there's nothing abnormal, when we get out of the city, we can speed up." As Ada spoke, he reached the gate of the city. The defender briefly interrogated a few words, and then let him go. Ada raised his whip high and flung it in mid-air, and the horse neighed and drove quickly past the city gate. Yinghua, who was motionless, finally knelt up, lifted the curtain on the back wall of the carriage, watched the city tower get farther and farther away from him, and muttered to himself: "I'm leaving." ”

Out of the city, the carriage galloped on the post road, Ah Liu did not sleep well for two nights, and soon fell asleep with Yinghua in a daze. Mu Qing didn't dare to sleep with his eyes open, and listened attentively to see if there was any movement behind him. Ada turned around and said: "Mother rest, no one is chasing at this time, they must have not found out yet, we can walk with peace of mind for a while, and in the evening, someone should chase after us." ”

"At this rate, where can we be before sunset?" Mu Qing asked.

"You should be able to get to Piling County."

"My father knew that I would definitely go to Mr. Du, and he would definitely chase him after Jiangdu. If we can go to Jiangdu one step ahead of them, they will not be able to pursue them, and they will return. At that time, when we re-entered Jiangdu, there would be a lot less trouble. ”

"What do you mean, let's not be in a hurry, but we should go to Shangpanhuan for a day or two?" Ada asked.

"It's to delay, but you can't stop near this post road. They couldn't find anyone in the river, so they turned their heads along the post road, and they lined up one inn after another, and they soon found us. We're going to stay a little further away from this road and hide for a day. ”

Ada secretly said that this little lady is so thoughtful, although she is flustered, she is not chaotic at all, and Ah Lang is the original pair. "When we arrive in Biling County, we will detour to the west, we will rest in Danyang County for a day, and then detour to Jiangdu, my mother will see it?" Ada drew up a line and asked, but he made up his mind in his heart, if someone really chased after him and couldn't dodge, he would fight for himself and protect her to his own Alang. There are some people in this world who should be with others.
