But those two water tanks are really ......

What to do?

Ye Lingyi buried her head in her chest and walked to the kitchen with a bitter face, and her mind was quickly thinking about how to deal with it.

But before he could think about half of the reason, the top of his head suddenly "banged" into a very elastic "wall".

"Shhh

Ye Lingyi suddenly gasped, covered his head that was directly rising to Venus, and heard a cold voice floating above his head in the gap where he was grinning: "Where did you come from, don't you have long eyes when you walk?" ”

Is this stupid scolding her? It's a bad guy who has also received nine years of compulsory education, so why can't he afford to be such a stupid talent?

Ye Lingyi raised her head angrily, and was about to use her three-inch incorruptible tongue that could show lotus flowers to teach people a good lesson.

But the moment he didn't want to look up, he suddenly found that the person standing opposite was Helian Che, the second young master of Helian Mansion.

So the anger that just surged into his head was like being poured a basin of ice water, and there was not half a trace of spark left in an instant.

At that time, if there were other people around him, he would definitely be able to see a wonderful change in the girl's dark little face, first the eyes were full of fire, but the angry expression immediately turned into a stunned person at the moment when his eyes touched the person in front of him, and then from stunned to a capitalized "cowardice".

In the end, she had to stand on the spot with her shoulders slumped, just waiting for the damned master's family to give her a haircut.

At this time, even if she is punished for kneeling all night, she will admit it, anyway, as long as she is not allowed to fetch water and fill the tank, everything is negotiable.

It's a pity that Helian Che, who was standing opposite her, didn't see her wonderful expression at this time, but was holding a blue book in his hand and reading.

Seriously indeed.

Ye Lingyi raised his head cautiously, and in the drizzle, he saw a young man with a green jade hairpin and black hair occasionally frowning slightly, and he was dressed in an apricot white dark coat hunting in the wind, lining his figure and complexion like jade, and he didn't know how long it had been raining, he seemed to be covered with a layer of silver powder, Helian Che just stood quietly, his slender and knotted hands grasped the corner of the book, and his ruddy thin lips looked at the past through the drizzle, and there was a kind of delicate vision like a rose through the drizzle, so he looked more fairy than usual. Looking up slightly, I saw the eyes hidden behind the silver mask, and my gaze was fixed on the book like a torch, and it never shifted at all. Ye Lingyi stood on tiptoe slightly, and he could only see a faint shadow of long eyelashes left on his eyelids, like two butterflies emitting a shimmer in the drizzle, and his slightly trembling appearance looked a little charming?

Ye Lingyi didn't know why, staring at the two "butterflies" couldn't come back to his senses, and he even had a desire or two to reach out and catch them......

"Dengzi!"

Danqing's voice suddenly drilled out of his mind, Ye Lingyi suddenly shook his head, and threw away the evil thoughts in his mind one after another.

I didn't forget to sigh: How can I think like this, the other party is still a child!

And Helian Che, who hadn't responded for a long time, finally took his eyes off the book, and when he saw that the person opposite was Ye Lingyi, his voice cooled down a little: "You dog slave, why don't you answer when I ask you?" Dumb? ”

Ye Lingyi lowered her body slightly, and replied extremely piously: "They are all small ones with eyes and no beads, beg the young master to punish!" ”

Helian Che obviously didn't expect her to admit her mistake so readily, but he was a little surprised.

Ye Lingyi, who was on the other side, in order to get out of the task assigned by Liu Sanniang, really wished that he would punish himself immediately.

But things are so coincidental, Helian Che looked at the account book in his hand, frowned, and waved his hand very generously when he looked at Ye Lingyi again: "Okay, forget it this time." ”

With that, Helian Che turned around to leave.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Lingyi hurriedly grabbed the corner of his clothes, and said hurriedly: "It's all small damned, the little one offended the young master, please punish the young master!" Even if it is punished for kneeling for a night, the little one will never complain. ”

She made a lot of determination.

Helian Che frowned slightly, turned his head and unceremoniously opened her hand that grabbed the corner of his clothes, and his tone contained half a bit of surprise: "You dog slave is really ridiculous, I said forget it, you are in a hurry to find bad luck?" ”

Ye Lingyi lowered her head and bit her lip, and when she looked up, she already had a bitter and hateful expression on her face: "The master is wise, and the little one has no choice but to do this." ”

"Oh?"

Helian Che slowly put down the book and looked at her with interest, as if waiting for an explanation.

Ye Lingyi secretly brewed her emotions, and her tone was really extremely sad and aggrieved: "As we all know, my current identity is not only to recuperate and temper my mind, but also to better serve the Taishi in the future. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Helian Che said this sentence in a very plain tone, so plain that it seemed that he had already understood everything and only asked it to cooperate with her acting.

Ye Lingyi's heart was at a loss for a while, so she could only grit her teeth: "For example, today's events, the master may not know, there is an unwritten rule in the courtyard of the slave, and the new slave must go alone to fetch water to fill the vat." ”

Helian Che's eyes hidden behind the mask are like two vortices containing a huge gravitational force, and as long as you look into them, you can't pull yourself out anymore.

Ye Lingyi was stunned for a moment.

"So what?"

"So......" Ye Lingyi's big black grape-like eyes flashed twice, and a hint of cunning immediately appeared: "The master may not know the rules of the minions, usually the two big tanks in the kitchen are originally the minions take turns to be in charge, there are so many people in Helian Mansion, and the demand for water is large, and the kitchen water tank has to be filled with at least two people playing a dozen times back and forth." ”

"What the hell are you trying to say?"

Helian Che looked a little impatient.

Ye Lingyi seized the opportunity, and her smile gradually flattered: "Master, you see...... I'm here to serve the Taishi, we all know what kind of character the Taishi is, how wise and powerful it is, the dignity is supreme, and the entourage around me is so beautiful, although I am only a reserve member, I can't send too many people, otherwise it will be a big deal to lose the face of the Taishi, so I'm afraid I have to find someone to ...... this work of filling the tank."

Helian Che sneered: "I advise you to have these tricks, it's better to think of a way, how to break your tongue, and complete the task." ”

He stopped giving her a chance and turned away.

Ye Lingyi tilted her head and thought about it, but she didn't understand.

On this night, Ye Lingyi walked in the dark passage with a thin body carrying two buckets that were almost half the size of her.

It was a passage for slaves to walk, a narrow path, very difficult to walk, even a thin and thin child like Ye Lingyi could only move inch by inch with his body slightly sideways, and others were even more afraid that the tip of his nose would touch the wall even if he turned around.

In order to transport two wooden barrels full of water to the kitchen, she had to use the strength of the milk in her previous life.

However, the dark passage was dimly lit, and there was only a candle light every few dozen steps, and the road was narrow and difficult to walk, so it was obviously two wooden barrels filled with water, but when she returned to the kitchen, the two wooden barrels would be left with half a bucket of water.

The kitchen steward's wife is over fifty years old, with thick shoulders and a round waist, Ye Lingyi easily transported the wooden barrel back, and before she could catch her breath, the old woman sitting in front of the stove dropped the chicken leg in her hand, wiped her greasy mouth, and picked up the horsewhip at hand.

"Dead girl! Where are you hiding? Let you fetch water and go to the kung fu of giving birth? Watch me peel your skin and send it to the Grand Master! ”

The old woman is like a machine training a slave, and as soon as she speaks, she scolds uncleanly.

Ye Lingyi frowned, displeased.

The old woman approached, glanced into the barrel, and saw not much anger, but gloating, and the whip in her hand fell on her.

In this life, Ye Lingyi was quick-eyed, and the horsewhip was caught by her before she had a chance to get close.

"Yo?"

The old woman saw that the little girl exuded a murderous aura, and suddenly became interested: "Sister-in-law Liu only said that the new dead girl is not small, but she didn't think that she was a splash!" ”

After all, the mother-in-law has great strength, and as soon as the horsewhip is pulled as hard as she can, Ye Lingyi's calloused palm immediately opened a deep blood groove.

The scorching pain went straight to the brain.

Ye Lingyi couldn't help frowning, and her palms trembled uncontrollably.

The old woman looked at her condescendingly, like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Ye Lingyi couldn't suppress her anger, and when she wanted to fight back, she didn't want to see a shadow behind the water tank.

The little girl was thin and skinny, and hid behind the water tank in dirty clothes, staring timidly at her and the housekeeper with big round eyes, and from time to time glancing at the half of the chicken leg on the stove, and swallowing very longingly.

The housekeeper's mother-in-law is a good person, and she feels a little wrong, and when she is about to look back, she hears Ye Lingyi scolding: "Dead fat woman, who are you playing with?" Really when I'm a vegetarian? It's a big deal, you and I go to the Taishi to theorize. ”

"What?"

The mother-in-law squinted, and there was more hatred on her greasy face: "You are a cheap girl who has no one to raise in life, I think you are bold and turned against you!" Okay, you want a theory, right? Then you go down to the underworld to theorize first! There is no shortage of short-lived ghosts in Helian Mansion! ”

The steward's mother-in-law took revenge on her with extremely filthy words.

The horsewhip fell fiercely, hitting Ye Lingyi's body like a burning pain unbearable, Ye Lingyi didn't hide, just stubbornly endured, looked at the back of the water tank, and smiled slightly with kindness.

The little girl behind the water tank didn't seem to think that she had been discovered, so she shrank her head to the place where the water tank was completely covered, and quietly poked out half of her head, seeing that Ye Lingyi on the opposite side didn't mean to expose her, so she shrunk and stretched out her hand to the stove.

The chicken leg was successful, and the little girl disappeared behind the water tank like a ghost.

Ye Lingyi's thin body and small face were pulled away by the horsewhip, and her paper-like weak body fell unconscious to the ground as soon as she tilted slightly, and she only heard her mother-in-law spitting and saying: "It's really filthy, if I find that the two jars are not full before tomorrow morning, just wait to be made into fish food!" ”

Ye Lingyi felt the pain of tearing her body, and she inevitably felt resentment in her heart.

After falling asleep in a trance, someone walked in front of her in front of her in a dream, squatted down in front of her, sighed faintly and said, "You are willing to suffer for an insignificant person, but you don't know that you have harmed yourself." ”

Her eyelids were heavy, and she struggled to open a gap in it, only to see a plain robe.

Who is it?

This question had been coiling around her mind, and the drowsiness that came with it was swept into the depths of her consciousness.

Ye Lingyi slept on the cold ground until the sky was bright.

The cook, who was rushing to work, walked into the kitchen yard with the empty food box, but before he could walk in, he screamed outside the door, and the empty food box fell to the ground.

Ye Lingyi woke up from the dream, propped up half of her body and sat up, her whole body tingled with a slight movement, and when she looked down, she found that she was covered with blood stains and had been stuck with her clothes after a night, and she tore open the blood as soon as she moved, and the fresh blood stains were immediately covered with reddish-brown bloodstains.

She looked out, and the screaming cook happened to see her.

The eyes met, but one was bewitched and the other was frightened.

The cook shouted, "Murder! ”

Ye Lingyi barely stood up and walked out.

When the cook saw this, he was so frightened that he ran out, shouting as he ran: "Murder! ”

"Kill whom?"

It's hysterical early in the morning, it's almost scared to death, okay?

Ye Lingyi helped her dizzy head, walked to the door lightly, leaned on the door frame and looked at the ground, and suddenly stumbled on her heels in fright, and sat on the ground with a pale face.

The one who fell on her back at the kitchen door, the one who stared wide-eyed, the one who bleed from the corners of her mouth and scratched her chest with her open claws, wasn't it the unruly kitchen steward who whipped her with a horsewhip last night?

How did she die here?

It was the first time she was so close to a dead person, Ye Lingyi felt suffocated in her chest, and she couldn't help but breathe more.

The death of the housekeeper was extremely terrifying, a pair of eyes that were wide open were already covered with ashes, and the blood stains at the corners of her mouth dried up and turned purple, it seemed that she was poisoned in an instant, and the time of death was not short.

A large group of guards dressed in black came in at the entrance of the kitchen courtyard, and the cook who was scared just now was standing in the middle of the guards at this time, pointing at Ye Lingyi and shouting: "She killed Mrs. Gui." ”

The frightened Ye Lingyi was stunned, and the guards came over violently and put her in front of Helian Che.

In the high room of the Ming Hall, the silver-faced boy sat in the middle, his skin was lined with a dark blue satin robe, and his slender knuckles were holding a roll of bamboo slips to study carefully, and there was no solemnity that a person who presided over justice should have.

Danqing, who was short and thin, stood beside him, and from time to time threw worried glances at the dark and thin girl with stubborn eyes in the audience.

"Why do you say I killed that woman?"

Ye Lingyi frowned and looked at the cook who was kneeling next to him.

The cook craned his neck and said to Helian Che on the seat with full of energy: "You are the only one in the kitchen this morning, who else would you be?" ”

"You need proof to speak!"

"Evidence?"

Obviously, the chef only saw and had no actual evidence, so his momentum weakened.

Helian Che on the main seat suddenly laughed, and several people below looked at him in unison, but his eyes were still fixed on the bamboo slip in his hand, as if he had just read some interesting fragment from the bamboo slip.

At this moment, several guards carried up a man and placed him beside the two kneeling in the hall.

It turned out to be the little girl who Ye Lingyi helped cover and steal chicken legs last night.

However, he was only five or six years old, and when he was lifted up, his eyes were closed, his whole body was purple, and his stiff body was lifeless, and he had been angry for a long time.

Lao Qiu walked in after him, leaned over towards Helian Che, and said respectfully: "Young Master Hui, the cause of death of Mrs. Gui and this little girl has been found out." ”
