Chapter 143
The prison is a bit damp in winter, and perhaps it is a place that reminds people of the gloom, the corridors are dimly lit, and the wind blows through the gaps in the iron windows on both sides, giving people a ghostly feeling. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Mu Bo sat on a dry bed made of straw, staring out the window, not knowing what he was thinking. I saw that he was surrounded by blue tiles, and the old yellow walls seemed to have irregular strips from yesterday's fighting, which were probably drained blood and muddy dust.
"2203, someone has come to see you!" The warden led me to the iron gate and shouted.
Mu Bo looked back, and the moment he saw me, there seemed to be a clear smile on his face, "After waiting for so many days, I finally waited for the second miss." Mu Bo said, slowly sat up from the edge of the bed, and slowly walked to the door.
"The old slave has been waiting here for nearly three months, just to find a quiet day waiting for you, you see, the humidity is so heavy today, it's probably snowing outside, right?"
To be honest, until this time, I still don't believe that he is the inner ghost and murderer we have been looking for for a long time, he seems to be so kind and harmless, how can he be him? I don't understand.
"The second lady doesn't speak, she's angry with the old slave, right? Actually, I'm angry myself! Mu Bo said, he actually laughed to himself, I watched him laugh louder and louder, the more he laughed, the more distorted he became, I couldn't help but take a step back, the more I didn't dare to make a sound, is this still the old housekeeper Mu Bo I know who has always taken care of me and doted on me? I asked myself.
The warden has quietly retreated with his subordinates, because of the face of Gu He's two ministers, I came very smoothly this time, Inspector Chen personally greeted him, and asked the warden to accompany him throughout the whole process, and protect him by force if necessary! With such thoughtful treatment, why am I still so scared after seeing Mu Bo?
There was a hint of impatience and eagerness in my voice that I wasn't sure about, yes, I wanted to understand what all this was all about, so I was so overwhelmed and even scared when I actually saw him, right?
After squeezing these two words out of my throat, my throat was in a state ......of dryness and pain for a while. The irregular bars on the wall are so obvious, and it feels too oppressive and terrifying for me......
"What, is the second miss scared when she sees me now?" Mu Bo asked, thought for a while and said, "Also, people who have killed people always make others shudder." I heard that you are going to marry the eldest young master of the He family, is it the He family who is going to propose to you when he comes to our house for the first time? After all, you are still married to someone you don't love. The old lady knew about it, and probably died without turning a blind eye. ”
I finally found some of my voice, looked at him and said, "Mubo, I'm here to ...... today."
"Shhhhh......h He stretched out his somewhat thin fingers, slowly lifted him to the part of his eyes that covered the light, and squinted his eyes and listened.
There was silence outside the window......
There was nothing, even the sound of the wind, which seemed to be much quieter, almost inaudible.
My eyes became more and more confused, when can I hear the sound of snow in the winter in Nanjing? That's probably a privilege that only people in the north have, right?
"Second Miss, don't worry, since you are here today, just wait for the old slave, people are old, and they are always willing to remember the past. Think about yourself at that time, the things you have done, and the people you have met, and you will find that when you walk in this world, there is always a certain number of things you encounter.
For example, when the old slave was almost frozen to death when he was 19 years old, God actually told me to meet the old lady.
I still remember the scene, she was dressed in a cotton brocade robe embroidered with butterflies in thick satin, with a peach embroidered folded silk underneath, and a narrow silver-gray flower-sprinkled jacket with a blue and white mink trim on the collar and cuffs.
It was really cold that day, the winter in the north was as cold as you can imagine, and the wind blew like a knife on the face. There is snow in the sky, especially the kind that is large, which is not as visible as the snow in Nanjing. I haven't eaten for days and nights, and it's cold, and if I continue to freeze like that, I'll probably die. Unfortunately, God didn't want me to die prematurely, so she walked down from the carriage and came to me, she squatted down and looked at me dying, and hurriedly ordered the little girl around me to buy a bowl of hot soup. I know that she is the young grandmother of a big family, and I am a person who is about to freeze to death on the side of the road, where is she worthy of her favor, so I followed her back to Liufu in the name of repaying her kindness, only to know that she was the wife in charge of the family, and she became the wife of the champion early, and the husband and wife were in love.
If she had been in love with your grandfather until she was old, I would have left long ago. Actually, I thought about leaving the Liu family, and your grandmother always advised me not to be willing to condescend to others for the sake of a bowl of hot soup, she knew my ambitions, and she always understood me. However, your grandfather did not fulfill his promise to love her all his life, and he was not clear with the woman.
Entangled, several times asked her to cry alone, she pretended to be strong and invulnerable on the surface, but only I knew that several times, she ran alone to a place where no one secretly cried. He loses her, so I don't have to hide my feelings secretly. I said to myself, I wanted to run and say to her, I'll take you away, I'll take you away, even though you're a few years older than me, but I don't care. I just identified you, from the first time I saw your gentle smile at me in the snow, I identified you.
She was amazed, she told me that she only treated me as a brother, and she said that she was always your grandfather's wife anyway, that she had children and daughters, and that she was a responsible person for the family. From then on, she saw me and did not have the gentle words of the past, she was very resolute, and she asked me to leave.
I really regret my impulsiveness, if I hadn't run to show my intentions, at least she would have smiled at me, but......
After that, I told her that since she is the one who takes responsibility for the family, then I am also willing to be an unknown housekeeper in Liu's mansion for the rest of my life. ”
There were crystal tears passing across Mu Bo's face, and I listened to his low memories and suddenly realized that he had hidden such a shocking secret in his heart for so many years.
