Chapter 303: Blend In
When Yu Shu got home, he didn't rush to Zhao Hui's room to say hello, but went back to the house to change Huan, so as not to worry Zhao Hui when she smelled the smell of wine on her body.
Yu Xiaoxiu was doing his homework in the room, and when he heard the movement next door, he put down his pen and walked outside the door of Yu Shu's room.
"Sister, you're back."
"Well, wait come in," Yu Shu fastened his belt and everything, and then stepped on soft shoes to open the door for Yu Xiaoxiu.
Yu Xiaoxiu knew that Yu Shu'er went to Dali Temple to hear the trial, and when he entered the house, he asked her anxiously: "How is it, has the case been tried and how was it judged?"
Yu Shu closed the door of the house, pulled him to the base of the wall, and whispered to him: "The old lady of the Ji family committed suicide in fear of sin."
"Huh?" Yu Xiaoxiu was stunned, he didn't think that the old man of the Ji family, who was high up to him, would be gone.
"Don't be busy telling your godfather and godmother about this," Yu Shu patted him on the shoulder, "In the past two days, I will find a way to get my mother out of Jifu as soon as possible." ”
After telling Yu Xiaoxiu, Yu Shu didn't care what he thought, so he pushed him back to his room to read a book, and he went to Zhao Hui's house to sit for a while, and then went back to the room to rest.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next morning, after the family had eaten, Yu Shu went out with Yu Xiaoxiu, who went to school.
"Sister, where are you going?" Yu Xiaoxiu didn't believe that Yu Shu said to Zhao Hui at the dinner table, he was going to show people feng shui.
Yu Shu said: "I'll go to Ji's house today to inquire about the news and see how my mother is staying there."
As soon as Yu Xiaoxiu heard this, he hurriedly said, "Then I'll go with you."
Yu Shu patted him on the head and said, "Where are you going, take your class well."
Yu Xiaoxiu said anxiously: "How can you go alone, they must be annoyed with you right now, and they won't arrest you when they see you."
Yu Shu said in his heart, the Ji family is not only annoyed with her, I am afraid that they can't wait to pick her skin and tear off her bones.
"It's okay, no matter how annoying they are, I don't dare to blatantly do anything to me, you go to the academy obediently, and I'll tell you when I come back in the afternoon."
Yu Shu was afraid that Yu Xiaoxiu would not be obedient and secretly follow her, so he sent the person to Baichuan Library, and watched him go in step by step before leaving.
Yu Shu didn't turn any further, and walked straight to the Right Judgment Mansion.
Half an hour later, Yu Shu came to the street in front of the Ji Mansion, and saw the white cloth hanging in front of the gate from a long distance, and when he got closer, there was a white light on the high door, and the door plaque was draped with a layer of black veil, and the corners were uneven, and the layout looked a little hasty.
It is no better than a few days ago when the door was locked and both doors were open, because Ji Huaishan was dead outside, and he couldn't close his house for the first seven days and nights, so as not to let the soul of the dead not return and wander outside.
There were only two family members in sackcloth in front of the door, and there were no visitors, I don't know if the news of Ji Huaishan's death has not yet come out, or relatives and friends are afraid and dare not come to the door.
Yu Shu paused outside the door for a moment, then walked forward, and when he arrived at the door, he was stopped by the family member reaching out to stop him.
"Who is this girl?"
Yu Shu was wearing a full set of Hu clothes, trousers and boots, no hairpin jewelry, and only a plain silver buckle to tie her hair high, and the family of Jifu almost recognized her as a man.
Yu Shu lived in the Ji family a while ago, but there are many people in the right judgment mansion, and it is not that none of them have seen her, and it just so happens that the two gatekeepers don't recognize who she is today.
In order to enter this gate, Yu Shu improvised, and immediately put on a worried face, and said: "I am a classmate of the fourth lady of your family in the Taishi Academy, I heard that there was an accident in her family, and I came to visit, I don't know what is going on, your mansion is actually mourning, which one has passed away?"
The two family members didn't know what she was talking about, so they just thought they were Ji Xingxuan's friends, so they cried and told her: "It's our old man."
"Ah, this" Yu Shu pretended to be surprised, unable to speak, "Then, what about your young lady?"
Yu Shu saw Liu Hao take Ji Xingxuan away yesterday, and he didn't know whether to send her back.
Jia Ding said: "Miss is kneeling in the mourning hall, the little one will take you over, the girl is here, please."
Yu Shu didn't plan to go to Ji Huaishan's mourning hall, so he hesitated: "This is Brother Lao, my mother is sick, and it is inconvenient for me to look at the spirit, so you can help me please invite your young lady and let me see her alone."
The two family members didn't think much about it, because it was rare to have a guest who came to visit, they didn't dare to slack off, so one nodded and agreed, and took Yu Shu into the door.
Ji Huaishan died yesterday, Ji Mansion was messed up, the family affairs are not rigorous, there is no rule for the time being, so the doorkeeper does not know the rules, and when he saw that the guests did not know the way, he did not ask the way to let him in.
Yu Shushun smoothly entered the Ji Mansion, and on the way, he saw that the people in the mansion were all in a hurry, holding the memorial supplies in their hands, and they looked panicked.
The family of Jifu took her to a teahouse in the west, and only then did he remember to ask her name:
"The girl is waiting here, the little one will go and report it, please ask the girl's surname."
"My surname is Zhou."
Yu Shu recited a surname, and when he saw that the family left, leaving her alone, Yu Shu turned his face and walked out of the teahouse, looking for the way, avoiding the people who came and went, and walked to the backyard.
Presumably the Ji family went to the front yard to keep watch, there was no one in the backyard, Yu Shu was not recognized all the way, and touched the small courtyard where Aunt Cui lived, which was also the only benefit of living in the Ji family a while ago, at least she recognized the road in this house.
The courtyard door was hidden, Yu Shu pushed it gently, and the door opened, she first glanced in through the crack in the door, and saw that there was no one, so she walked in.
The women living in this small courtyard are the concubines of Ji Xiaogu, the third master of the Ji family, and Aunt Cui's house is in the corner, Yu Shu followed the corridor to the door of the house, and saw that the door was not closed, there was a crack open, and he didn't knock on the door, so he flashed in.
There was no one in the outer hall, there was a cool air in the room, it was cold, Yu Shu didn't make a sound, walked lightly to the door of Aunt Cui's bedroom, gently pushed the door open, and as soon as he entered, bypassing the movie screen, he saw a figure curled up on the bed with his back to the door.
Yu Shu was Aunt Cui, and wondered in her heart, wanting to say that at this time, how could she lie down and sleep here in a big way, and she hadn't been tied up and thrown into the firewood room?
Who knew that Lu Dao walked up and took a look, and the one who was lying on this bed was the little maid Xiangsui who served Aunt Cui, but I didn't know where Aunt Cui went.
"Sui'er, Sui'er, wake up." Yu Shu patted the girl directly on the shoulder and woke people up.
The little girl was sleeping in a daze, and when she heard someone calling her, a spirit, she got up from the bed, stared at a face, and saw clearly that it was Yu Shu, opened her mouth in shock, and stammered:
"Aunt, aunt, girl."
Yu Shu asked her: "Why are you sleeping here, where is my mother?"
mentioned Aunt Cui, Xiangsui suddenly sobered up, her mouth was flattened, and she burst into tears, and told Yu Shu while crying:
"Yesterday and yesterday afternoon, in the middle of the night, the third master came, and when he entered the door, he slapped his aunt in both ears, scolded the girl in his mouth, and scolded the aunt again, saying that the girl was a scourge. ̈ The old man died, woo woo, the third master asked the aunt to be tied up and locked in the firewood room, the slave was scared tightly, and did not dare to go out of the room, from yesterday to now, he didn't even drink saliva, woo woo ̈."
Yu Shu frowned, thought about it for a while, looked down and saw that the maid was still wiping her tears, so he reached out and pinched her shoulder, and asked in a low voice:
"Don't cry, let me ask you, do you know where my mother was imprisoned?"
Xiangsui nodded, and stumbled: "Zhi, Zhilu, it's in the firewood room behind the big kitchen."
Yu Shu nodded, touched his chin and thought for a moment, then sat next to Xiangsui, and asked her: "Sui'er, let me tell you, the old man of the Ji family committed a crime and committed suicide by biting his tongue in the court, this right judgment house is about to be gone, it won't be long before you all have to move out, the third master has always hated me, and I will take my mother lightly, and then you will have no master, and you will have to be betrayed." If you're lucky, find a good person, if you're unlucky, you'll be sold to that fireworks and willow field as a prostitute, and you won't want to climb out of the fire pit again in this life - I have a way to save you now, it's up to you to see if you listen or not. ”
When Xiangsui heard her say halfway through, she shivered, and her face turned white with fear, and then she heard her say that there was still salvation, and hurriedly grabbed her sleeve, crying and begging:
"Ask the girl to save the slave."
Yu Shu's eyes flashed, shook her hand, and softly reassured: "Don't be afraid, you listen to me." I said that you will do whatever you want, keep and rescue you from Lu, and when you turn back, you will still serve my mother, and follow me to eat and live well, which is much more comfortable than staying here. ”
Listening to Yu Shu's coaxing and frightening, Xiangsui nodded again and again, obedient, where would he not listen to her
So at that moment, Yu Shu gave some instructions and made up his mind, no matter what method he used, he would get Aunt Cui out first.
