Chapter 355: Human-faced Beast Heart
Xu Yuanshuang glanced at Xu Qirong's master and servant, and said softly: "Come with me!" ”
Xu Qirong pursed his lips, looked at the curious women around him, and whispered to Xu Yuanshuang, "Thank you, Sister Shuang." ”
Xu Yuanshuang snorted, stopped talking, took Xu Qirong out of the kitchen, turned left and right into a camp tent that looked the most comfortable, and found that although the camp tent was not big, it was very clean, and there was even a small plum bottle on the small bamboo table near the tent door, which was inserted with branches and tillian.
Xu Yuanshuang saw Xu Qirong looking at Na and Di Lian, and said with a smile: "This is the uncle who buys it, I met a skinny little girl selling lotus flowers, and when I saw this strangeness, I bought it back for two children and sent it to me here." ”
Xu Qirong nodded and said, "Sister Shuang is popular...... I don't know how Sister Shuang got here? What about Sister Shuang's family? ”
I don't know if I'm worried that the wall has ears, or I don't want to talk to Xu Qirong much, Xu Yuanshuang only said: "I asked people to open the city gate for them, and then they followed the rebels." What about you? Sister Xu, are you separated from your family? ”
Xu Qirong's eyes widened: "Sister Shuang is opening the gate of Fuzhou City?" ”
Xu Yuanshuang snorted, with a somewhat relieved expression on his face: "In addition to the city gate of Fuzhou City, which other city gate can I open!" ”
At this time, Xu Qirong and Yu Xia both had an unacceptable emotion in their hearts, when the rebel army attacked the city, everyone thought that the soldiers defending the city would drive the rebels back to the mountain, and they would be able to defend it for at least three or five months. Who knew that before it was three or five days, the rebels entered the city.
Everyone didn't have time to pack up any gold and silver. dragged his children and daughters to start the way of escape, and he was still wondering in his heart, did the rebel army have divine help? I'll find out later. It turned out that Xu Yuanshuang opened the city gate!
"Sister Frost!" Xu Qirong said sharply, "How many people are in that city?" As soon as the gates of this city were opened, how many people were displaced! How much benefit did the rebels give you, and you actually did such a thing as luring wolves into the house! ”
Yu Xia also said: "As soon as the rebel army enters the city, they will burn, kill and smash it, is this what Miss Xu Si wants to see?" ”
"What can I do?" Hearing them say this, Xu Yuanshuang's face was a little dark, but he refused to explain. only said, "I was forced to do it as a last resort!" ”
Xu Qirong shook his head: "What do you have to do?" Even if you have to do it as a last resort, you can't ignore the people of the city! ”
Xu Yuanshuang had a cold face: "Even if it's burning, killing and smashing." That's also the rich who burned, killed and looted, what does it have to do with ordinary people! ”
Xu Qirong was shocked: "Rich people are not ordinary people?" The Xu family is also a big family! ”
Xu Yuanshuang nodded: "So the Xu family didn't run away." ”
Xu Yuanshuang's tone was very calm when she said this, and there was a strange atmosphere in her calmness, Xu Qirong and Yu Xia couldn't help but think in their hearts. Could it be that Xu Yuanshuang was hit with a little wrong spirit? For a while, I didn't know what to say.
Xu Yuanshuang sighed. Seeing that Xu Qirong didn't speak, he took the initiative to explain: "If I don't open the city gate, I am still in Pei Zhizhou's mansion." ”
Half of a sentence is headless and brainless, Xu Qirong didn't react at once, and wondered in his heart, that Pei Zhizhou is Xu Yuanshuang's uncle, it seems that the two families are close again, why did she mention her uncle. The tone is so resentful?
Then he remembered that it had been three months since the rebel army attacked Fuzhou City, and Xu Yuanshuang said that if it wasn't for opening the city gate. She is still in Pei's mansion...... What marriageable little lady will live in her uncle's house for three months! What's more, Pei's Mansion is not very far from Xu's Mansion, although Xu Yuanshuang's mother is gone, but his father and younger brother are still there, and he has a grandmother, how did he fall to the point of being under the fence?
After a few turns of thought, Xu Qirong's face became paler and paler, and she seemed to understand why Xu Yuanshuang wanted to open the city gate.
Although Pei Zhizhou looked like a slippery character, he didn't look like a good official, but he couldn't have imagined that he was such a human-faced and beast-hearted thing!
Xu Yuanshuang looked at Xu Qirong: "You look down on me in your heart?" ”
Xu Qirong shook his head: "But are you willing?" ”
Xu Yuanshuang looked surprised and angry: "This kind of thing, how can I be willing!" Everyone thinks I am a traitor, even Xu You refuses to recognize me as a sister, I will tell you this now, but I am just thinking about ......, "Thinking that you are going to enter the palace sooner or later, when you arrive in Yaojing, we have long mountains and rivers, and the palace is deep, I am afraid that there will not be many opportunities to meet in the future, and it doesn't matter if I talk to you about these things."
The latter words were not spoken, but Xu Qirong understood, and sighed at the moment, Xu Yuanshuang is just a teenage lady, she should be spoiled by her father and protected by her mother, but she has experienced such ups and downs, and I don't know how much time the surnamed Pei has embarrassed her.
"Your aunt...... No matter? At the beginning of the chrysanthemum appreciation party, I saw that your Mrs. Pei liked your appearance very much. ”
Xu Yuanshuang said hatefully: "She naturally likes me, she doesn't like me, how can she send me to the ...... after learning that I have menarche?"
It turned out that Mrs. Pei sent Xu Yuanshuang to her husband's bed? Xu Qirong has lived two lives, and he has never seen such an appalling thing!
At the moment, I couldn't help but feel very sympathetic and pity Xu Yuanshuang, and wanted to comfort her, I was really not good at comforting people, so I tried to recall the appearance of my sister when she comforted her, took a step forward, hugged Xu Yuanshuang in her arms, patted her shoulder, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, everything is over." ”
Seeing her like this, Xu Yuanshuang couldn't help but feel a little angry and funny, twitched the corner of her mouth, and said: "I naturally know that the matter has passed, and you just saw it, although my life is not necessarily very good now, what is precious is freedom, and I don't have to look at those hateful faces to force a smile." I chose this path myself, whether it was the displaced people or the family members who were abandoned by me, even if it was in the oil pot, I would wait for me to live a comfortable life for decades. ”
I didn't regret it at all.
Xu Qirong sighed, not knowing how to comfort her, let alone persuade her. In fact, according to her own temperament in her previous life, if she encountered such a thing, she was afraid that she would be even more extreme than Xu Yuanshuang!
For Xu Yuanshuang, Xu Qirong is grateful, and now that she knows what is going on, she can't even bear to use the sentence "hateful people must have pity" on her.
She thought a little indistinguishable between right and wrong, open the city gate, open the city gate, what does the people of the city have to do with her, when she is vulnerable and helpless, none of the people in the city take the initiative to stand up and be willing to pull her!
