Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Mystery of Jia's Death (5)
Luo Qi's sadistic heart became gloomy when he heard this, the person in front of him, no matter what he had been, was now just a poor mother.
"You continue to stand still, everything is carried out according to the arrangement of the Zhao family, I have my own arrangements!"
"Benefactor!" Luo Qi didn't make any promises to Cao Liniang, but after Cao Liniang drank the decoction in silence, she stopped her who was leaving, "Benefactor, Liniang wants to repair a book." ”
"To whom?"
"Father," Cao Liniang's whole person calmed down, but her eyes were even more terrifying, "Zhao Guanglian has not returned, the benefactor doesn't have to startle the snake for Liniang, Liniang has only one request now, please hand over Liniang's suicide note to her father after the benefactor is completed." ”
The suicide note was written on the yellow paper of the medicine, Luo Qi personally held it close to Cao Liniang's hand, the latter refused to use charcoal, asked Luo Qi to prick his fingers, and wrote a blood book one stroke at a time, without a trace of cumbersomeness and redundancy, her blood book only said one thing, the Zhao family colluded with the Western Regions, and after several investigations, it was found that Zhao Guanglian had taken refuge in the enemy more than ten years ago, but when collecting evidence, his actions were revealed, and he was afraid that he would encounter accidents.
Luo Qi was very surprised after reading it, and glanced at Cao Liniang with a strange expression, could it be that Zhao Guanglian really collaborated with the enemy? Moreover, this woman actually knew it for a long time?
Cao Liniang saw her expression clearly, and she was also surprised in her heart, she was a young lady from the official family, so she naturally knew what kind of last words and charges were the most deadly, but looking at the benefactor's appearance, she was a little unbelievable, could it be that what she wrote was crooked, Zhao Guanglian really took refuge in the Western Regions more than ten years ago? !
At the beginning, I was really blind, and I took the beast with the human face and the heart of the beast as a good match, and took pity on her child......
The two people had different thoughts, and they didn't say a word, Luo Qi also took a charcoal pen and wrote a sentence on a piece of yellow paper, folded it and hid it in the crack of his sleeve, opened the door with a medicine bowl, the moonlight was bright outside, and the two small blue light spots on the wall flashed and flashed, and when he heard the door, he immediately shouted, "Meow~"
Luo Qi looked up, and when he saw the black cat, his eyes became cheerful, and he beckoned to it, this cat was also a frequent visitor in the eyes of the black-clothed people who were watching Xinlan Yuan from afar, but no one cared, it was just a habit for a beast to be fed, and when the time came, he came to ask for rations.
Their eyes all fell on Cao Liniang's room, and that was the most important thing.
The medicine on the stove was tumbling, Luo Qi held the cat in one hand and pinched a piece of cloth in the other, opened the lid and took a look, filled it with water, and concentrated on teasing the cat.
made Luo Qi happy, one by one, and broke all the hidden rations for him to eat.
She really likes cats, especially the aura type of black cat.
After playing for a while, the civet cat suddenly raised its head and looked left and right, and after a few slight stirring of its small nose, it meowed, stood up, and took a small turn in the yard, no matter how reluctant Luo Qi looked, turned into a black shadow and disappeared into the night.
Luo Qi looked around for a while, sat down in disappointment, but estimated the time in his heart, about the moment when he felt ugly.
According to the agreement, after receiving Luo Qi's secret signal to prepare, every night, Su Yi will burn a piece of incense at the ugly hour, if Luo Qi wants to contact her, there will inevitably be a civet cat looking for incense from there.
A black shadow flew silently against the shadow, almost invisible, and finally stopped in a courtyard where the servants lived, one of the doors with a half-open slit, the fragrance that was invisible to the naked eye wafted out faintly, and the civet cat twitched its nose to find it, and got into it, just throwing himself into the arms of Su Yi, who was squatting in the crack of the door.
The familiar one took out the note, opened it through the moonlight like water, and saw a line of small words: Action tomorrow night.
Su Yi raised his eyebrows, crumpled the note into a ball and threw it into a basin to burn to ashes, and looked at himself with a wrinkled finger, pinching and clucking, this hellish day is finally a head.
The next day, Su Yi got up early as usual to do his work, the big kitchen prepared porridge dishes in the morning, and most of the men in the house didn't have lunch in the house, and the use case was less than half of the dinner, so the most important thing in the whole big kitchen was dinner, and he started to get busy in the afternoon.
At this time, the diligent, capable and good-tempered Jane Niang is the most popular.
She helped Mother Song choose the dishes, and Mother Qi called her again, "Zhen Niang, Zhen Niang, come and help me clean up these fish, and I will leave one for you when the time comes." ”
Zhen Niang smiled in the past, sat with the mother-in-law who was cleaning up the fish, and began to deal with it, no better than those mothers-in-law, and when it was almost finished, the mother-in-law said jokingly. "At first glance, he is capable. It is a blessing to marry Jane's family in the future. ”
Jane's face was half hanging down, and her face was red, "...... There is not much water in the tank, I ...... I'm going to fetch some water. ”
Say goodbye and run away.
The mothers-in-law laughed in the back, such a joke is their daily fun, almost every day, but everyone is still happy.
Jane Niang carried the bucket, as usual, all the way to the well to wash the vegetables of the mother-in-law greetings, the well behind the big kitchen is the main source of water for the entire Zhao Mansion, she neatly rolled up her sleeves, picked up a bucket to hang on the well rope, when pulling the well rope, she pulled up the cuffs trembled slightly, there are some white powder puffs, fluttering sprinkles have fallen, but when the bucket is raised to the well, the water in the bucket is clean and translucent, and there is no abnormality.
Picked up three loads of water in one go, basically the large tank used for water storage in the kitchen has her newly picked well water, Liu Ma was in full swing with a group of little girls, and at this moment she saw Zhen Niang carrying the burden to go out again, and hurriedly greeted, "Zhen Niang, you are really diligent, Aunt Liu will leave your meals alone later." ”
Basically, Mother Liu will say this every evening, and the other little housekeepers will scoff when they hear it, isn't it just to take advantage of other people's Jane Niang to help, and the other new girls are also blushing, but they are not jealous at all, just looking at Zhen Niang carrying two loads of water with a face that is not red and breathless, they are beyond reach.
When the sunset burned up, the cooks had already fried the dishes, Zhenniang helped Liu's mother divide the box, I don't know if it was specially ordered by Tan's mother, or for other reasons, the food boxes near Xinlanyuan were handed over to Zhenniang to divide, according to their meaning, anyway, they had to throw away after use, except for Cao Liniang's master's food box is still good, and the girl or something is picked up and used badly, no wonder Suyu arches the fire every time she sees those dirty old food boxes.
However, Suyu, who came back from receiving the food box today, put the meal very quietly away, Luo Qi only took two wotou as usual, and the rest of the steamed buns and stir-fried vegetables with fine white noodles are all Suyu on weekdays.
This meal was eaten very quietly, the quiet plain language seemed to be a robot, stunned a mouthful of steamed bread and a mouthful of vegetables, the last bite of steamed bread stuffed into the mouth, and the chopsticks were empty in the empty plate with only vegetable soup left, only to find that it was finished.
"Xing'er, you don't have to pack up the food box, go to bed early when you go back, and sleep a little longer......"
Putting down the chopsticks, Su Yu looked at her and said such a sentence inexplicably. (To be continued.) )
