got up and sat at the tea table, Xiao Jinxuan held a cup of eight-treasure tea, drank it leisurely, and waited for Mother Bai to be ushered in.

didn't wait long, I saw the attic door opened, and then Mother Bai walked in with a smile on her face.

As soon as she entered the house, Mother Bai didn't speak, but stood there and looked at Xiao Jinxuan carefully for a long time, as if the other party had flowers on her face.

Xiao Jinxuan smiled lightly at the corner of her mouth, put down the teacup, and asked softly: "Mother Bai looks at me like this, it's so hard that she doesn't know me." ”

When Mother Bai heard this, she waved her hand again and again, and said with a smile: "The old slave has served you for eleven years, how can you not recognize the fourth lady, but I think that you seem to be a little different now." ”

Glancing at Mother Bai, Xiao Jinxuan smiled and asked, "Oh? Then my mother thinks that my change is good or bad. ”

Mother Bai smiled and said cautiously: "The fourth miss has grown up and has different ideas, which is naturally good." ”

Xiao Jinxuan fiddled with the white jade bracelet on her wrist, and said with a deeper smile: "Yes, when I was ignorant before, you have never been so cautious in your words and deeds, but now I have changed, Mom, your attitude has really changed." ”

What is the relationship between the two in the past ten years, they all know each other, no matter why Mother Bai came today, Xiao Jinxuan does not recommend reminding the other party, she thought it was not her yesterday, a few words softened, and she didn't want to fool her.

But who knows, as soon as Mother Bai heard this, she ignored it and knelt directly on the ground.

Tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and he said in a sad tone: "Fourth Miss, the old slave knows that I was wrong before, and today I am here to ask for punishment, I am not a human, I am blind and offended you, and please have a lot of you, don't worry about me." ”

Xiao Jinxuan looked at Mother Bai, who was kneeling on the ground and crying bitterly, without saying anything, and let her continue to repent there.

It's not that she's cold-hearted, it's not that she has to worry about it, it's just that the damage caused to her by the other party is too great.

For as long as she can remember, the heavy work, night and day of verbal abuse and beating, has grown up with her childhood.

I remember when she was three years old, the first time she lit a fire to cook, because she didn't understand anything, the black smoke billowing when she lit the fire, and Mother Bai angrily stuffed her head into the furnace pit, fortunately there was no open flame that time, she just scratched some skin, otherwise the consequences were really unimaginable.

And when she was seven years old, she went to the river to fetch water, and the winter was so cold that the river was very strong, and she was still a child at that time, and she couldn't dig it at all.

As a result, when she returned to Zhuangzi with the empty wooden bucket, Mother Bai stripped her of her clothes and poured the remaining water in the jar on her body one by one.

And Mother Bai wants to do this, just to see if the weather is cold enough to freeze on people's bodies, and if she can really do it, she believes Xiao Jinxuan's words and allows her not to carry water.

At that time, Xiao Jinxuan was only seven years old, this seven-year-old child, also cried and begged, but in exchange for only joking laughter and endless ice water, no one helped her, no one forgave her, and no one forgave her!

So now, it's just a few tears, just a few confessions, why does she have to be soft-hearted, why do she have to ignore the past suspicions, she Xiao Jinxuan can't do it.

Mother Bai cried on the ground for a quarter of an hour, but seeing Xiao Jinxuan, she just looked at her calmly, and didn't even let her get up, she secretly hated in her heart, knowing that the bitter meat plan would not work.

If you can't make a plan, you have another plan, and when I saw that Mother Bai quickly stopped crying, she suddenly looked at Xiao Jinxuan with a mysterious face.

The voice was also very low and said: "Fourth Miss, I saw Ping'er, just last night." ”

Xiao Jinxuan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "She is your niece, what is strange about you seeing her." ”

But Mother Bai sighed and said faintly: "Fourth Miss, that day was Ping'er who you personally ordered to punish, fifty big banna, how can this girl live, I saw her, but not in reality, but in a dream." ”

When Mother Bai said this, the expression on her face suddenly became gloomy for some reason.

Raising the teacup, Xiao Jinxuan lowered her head and took another sip of tea, her eyes blocked by the teacup, a trace of cunning flashed quickly, and she returned to normal in an instant.

By the time she put the cup down again, there was a look of panic and composure on her face.

Seeing Xiao Jinxuan, she asked in a trembling voice: "Mother Bai, what do you mean by this, is it still Ping'er who gave you a dream." ”

After saying that, she seemed to be frightened by her words, clasped her hands together, and kept rubbing each other, looking panicked.

Mother Bai's eyes flashed with joy, sure enough, this fourth young lady's temperament has changed, this terrible ghost's habits are still the same as before, she just mentioned a few words, but she didn't expect the other party to be scared like this.

Proud in her heart, Mother Bai said with a more gloomy face: "What the fourth young lady said is that my niece died a miserable death, and she has something to ask me to bring to you." ”

Xiao Jinxuan was frightened, and said with a frightened face: "What does she want to say to me, is it because I blame her for losing her life, tell her not to come to me, I will burn paper money for her in the future." ”

But Bai's mother shook her head, sighed and said: "Ping'er, this child, also said in her dream that she blames herself, and now she feels guilty, if she can't get the forgiveness of the young lady, she can't reincarnate with peace of mind." ”

Then Mother Bai was not enough, and hurriedly added: "This time she is an old slave who is looking for her, I'm afraid that she won't meet her last wish, and next time I will come to find Miss you in person." ”

Xiao Jinxuan stood up from the chair suddenly, walked in front of Bai's mother in a few steps, pulled the other party and said anxiously: "Don't come to me, mom, I'm afraid, I forgive her, tell her to leave." Don't let her come. ”

Looking at Xiao Jinxuan, who had become timid and cowardly again, Mother Bai scoffed, sure enough, the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to change, waste is waste, pretending to be like a daughter, and now she is scared and beaten back to her original form.

But she didn't care about disdainful of Xiao Jinxuan, Mother Bai remembered the purpose of her coming, so she comforted her with kind words: "Don't worry, isn't there an old saying, there is no basis for words, if you want Ping'er to believe that you really forgive her, you also need to write a letter of forgiveness in person, and then the old slave will burn it to Ping'er, and she will naturally be willing to reincarnate after reading it." ”

Xiao Jinxuan listened, quickly got up and came to the bookcase, and wrote without hesitation, and after a while, according to Bai's mother's meaning, a letter of forgiveness was written.

Handing over the letter to Bai's mother, Xiao Jinxuan still asked uneasily, "Is this really okay?" Mom, don't lie to me. ”

Mother Bai's goal is achieved, how can she still have the kung fu to take care of Xiao Jinxuan, and said extremely perfunctorily: "Well, well, I'll go burn it for Ping'er, and I'll leave the fourth young lady." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Xiao Jinxuan to speak, Mother Bai walked out with a anxious face.

When the door opened, a cold wind blew in, and the candles in the room flickered twice, and the candles in the room immediately became bright and dark.

At this moment, Lan Zhi and Zhuzi, who were accompanying the house, were frightened, thinking of what Mother Bai had just said, they both felt a chill in their necks, and under the flickering candlelight, there seemed to be something invisible, and they were quietly entering the house.

Especially the bamboo, he was so frightened that he screamed "ah", and Lan Zhi, who was on the side, closed her eyes and didn't dare to open them anymore, as if she would see something terrible when she opened her eyes.

Xiao Jinxuan looked at the bamboo funny, and asked teasingly: "Bamboo, you even dare to stop the county lord of Sipin, what's the matter now, the candlelight flickered a few times, and you are afraid that you will become like this." ”

Lan Zhi, who hugged the bamboo tightly and was a little more emotional, said in a trembling tone: "Miss, don't talk about bamboo, I'm also afraid, that Ping'er won't come to you." ”

With a sneer, Xiao Jinxuan sat down calmly, took a sip of tea and said, "That mother-in-law is just talking nonsense, I didn't expect it to really scare the two of you." ”

With Ping'er's temperament, if she really becomes a ghost after death, she will not reflect on her repentance and ask for her forgiveness? became a ghost looking for her life, Xiao Jinxuan's opinion is what Ping'er can do.

What's more, she herself is a ghost person, how can she be afraid of these ghosts, it's really funny.

Bamboo has a straight temperament, hiding in Lan Zhi's arms, and said fearfully: "Miss, you have a hard mouth, just now you were scared yourself." ”

Lan Zhi quietly pinched the bamboo, this stupid girl can't talk too much, so she will spread Xiao Jinxuan, this kind of bamboo that doesn't care about it, otherwise I don't know what kind of punishment she will become.

Sure enough, Xiao Jinxuan was not annoyed, but said with a smile: "If I don't show fear, how can I make that evil woman believe it." ”

Lan Zhi's head was flexible, and she immediately heard that something was wrong, and asked with a frown: "Miss is talking about the white mother, the purpose is not pure, so why did she do this?" ”

Xiao Jinxuan shook her head and said: "Why, I don't know for the time being, I wanted Zhuzi to follow behind Mother Bai and see what the hell she wanted, but now seeing that she is scared like this, Lan Zhi can only go to you." ”

In fact, Lan Zhi was also afraid, but Xiao Jinxuan had already ordered, and she could only go out hard.

Half an hour later, I saw Lan Zhi come back with a pale face, and she was helped in when she entered the house, looking frightened.

Xiao Jinxuan looked at it and asked suspiciously: "Lan Zhi, what's wrong with you, can you see clearly, where did Mother Bai go after she left?" ”

Lan Zhi was supported by the bamboo and sat down, and when she heard the question, she nodded hurriedly and said: "Miss, what Mother Bai said is true, I hurried behind her, and then I saw her close to the small garden, behind the rockery, she chanted for a long time, I was afraid of being found and did not dare to approach, but I vaguely heard her mention Ping'er." ”

Although Lan Zhi is not as frightened as bamboo, it is a thirteen-year-old girl's house in the end, walking at night is scary enough, and looking at the scene where Bai's mother seems to be communicating with the dead soul, she is not directly frightened, and she can walk back, which is powerful enough.

Xiao Jinxuan comforted her a few words, and then asked suspiciously: "Then have you seen that she really burned the letter to Ping'er?" ”

Lan Zhi's eyes flashed with hesitation, but she immediately said: "It's burned, the slave can see it with her own eyes, miss, don't think about it so much, this big night, don't say these words again, if you really attract unclean things, how can you get it." ”

After Xiao Jinxuan listened, she lowered her head with her eyebrows locked, but she didn't say anything.

Could it be that she thought too much about herself, and Mother Bai came tonight, really just to ask for peace of mind, so she asked her to write that letter?

She wanted to lure the snake out of the hole, and through Mother Bai, she found out the ghost behind her, but Lan Zhi's words made her confused, and it seemed that she was really worried about herself.

But instinctively, Xiao Jinxuan just felt that this matter was not so simple, it seemed that in the invisible darkness, a pair of scarlet eyes were staring at her, leading her into the depths of the swamp of death.
