Chapter 284: The Ice Cellar Suffers
Shang Jue didn't agree with the dark guard's idea, waved his hand and snorted coldly, "No need, let them continue to jump, just treat it as training for Lu Er." ”
Almost every dignitary or wealthy merchant had an ice cellar to store food.
Lin Qian and Xia Qin carried the wontons to the ice cellar, which was a basement, under the floor of the storage room, open the wooden plank, go down from the wooden ladder, and then turn the ice cellar is located.
Before walking to the ice cellar, Lin Qian just felt a little cool, and felt that it was still good to dress warmly.
"The inside of the ice cellar seems to be more comfortable than the outside." Lin Qian was really afraid of the wind outside, and it really hurt when the wind blew on her face.
Xia Qin scratched her nose and said, "Could it be that you still want to hide in the ice cellar?" In fact, it's good that you stay in the capital to get used to it, and the wind in the capital doesn't blow often, so maybe it's tomorrow. ”
Entering the ice cellar and feeling the real coldness of the ice cellar, Lin Qian suddenly shivered, put down the things in her hand, and quickly covered her ears, saying, "The ice cellar is so cold, it's so cold that my ears are almost unconscious." ”
Although the person was not her, she remembered that feeling, which seemed to be deeply engraved in every corner of her body, and the cells in her body were shouting and resisting when she encountered the cold, wanting to seek warmth.
Xia Qin saw that she had goosebumps all over her body, reached out from behind her to cover her hands, and said, "Hurry up and get out, the ice cellar is not so easy to stay in." ”
The two of them walked towards the exit, and the wooden plank that had been opened was now closed, and the ice cellar was pitch black.
Lin Qian fumbled for the wooden ladder and went up step by step, and when her head hit the wooden board on the top, Lin Qian straightened her arm and tried to push the wooden board away.
"Sister Xia, this place is locked."
"Could it be that your strength is too small to open, I'll try" Xia Qin climbed the wooden ladder, stood next to her, and stretched out his hand to push hard.
Fortunately, the ladder was wide enough to hold two people.
"Sister Xia, let's push it together." Lin Qian stepped forward, as if she was planning to exert her shoulders.
The two of them shouted 'one, two, three' together, and tried hard together, but it was useless.
"Sister Xia, it seems to be locked." Lin Qian rubbed her sore shoulders and said.
"Come, be careful," Xia Tan got down the ladder and stretched out his hand to her, "I think it should be a good thing done by the Su family sisters, I really can't understand that everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion takes care of them, and they still stay in the Prime Minister's Mansion, won't they feel bored?" ”
Lin Qian walked a few steps and didn't leave, sat down, wrapped herself tightly, and said, "It's so cold, will we freeze to death here?" ”
It seems that his brain has been frozen by the cold, and he can't think at first, but he feels as if he has returned to the day when he was locked out of the door by the Yang family, lonely, dark, and cold.
Xia Qin sat down beside her, wrapped her in his cloak, and comforted her softly, "It's not cold, it's not cold, it's okay, if Chen Ran and Mu Luan find out that we are gone, they will come to us." ”
The air conditioning in the ice cellar was not very unfriendly, and I don't know how long it took, Xia Tan was a little hungry, thinking that it was noon.
The two hadn't talked for a long time, and Xia Qin also sensed the unfriendly chill, and began to feel cold, but he still wanted to warm Lin Qian.
But Lin Qian's body temperature seemed to be gradually decreasing, Xia Qin couldn't warm her, she began to be anxious, rubbing her hands vigorously and said, "Qianqian, let's go down the stairs and move, okay?" If you continue like this, you'll really freeze to death here. ”
Xia Qin looked at Lin Qian, she had closed her eyes, she didn't move as if she was dead, she probed her snort, and said, "Qianqian, can't we sleep here, wake up!" ”
Lin Qian was still breathing, but she fainted and fell into a deep coma.
Xia Tan hugged Lin Qian tightly, patted her cheek and said, "Qianqian can't sleep, wake up quickly." ”
Lin Qian still didn't move, Xia Qin couldn't do it, took off her cloak and wrapped Lin Qian, walked back and forth on the wooden ladder with her arms crossed, and warmed Lin Qian when she was warmer.
At noon, Lin Qian and Xia Qin did not appear in the flower hall, and were replaced by the two sisters of the Su family.
Shang Jue was sitting on one side, and Su Moran was on the other side, Mu Luan threw up his sleeves and left without hesitation.
Chen Ran opened his mouth and asked, "What about Xia Qin and sister-in-law?" ”
Shang Jue raised his eyebrows, and seemed to answer after careful consideration, "It should still be in the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
"I'll go to her house to see, maybe the two of them made wontons and forgot the hour on a whim." Chen Ran immediately got up and said.
"Brother Chenran, I'll accompany you to call Miss Xia and sister-in-law." Su Yanran hurriedly followed and grabbed Chen Ran's arm.
Chen Ran retracted his hand and said, "Yanran, I'll look for her myself, there is a difference between men and women, you have grown up, and you should understand the difference between men and women." ”
After speaking, he left with a cold face and walked out of the flower hall to find Xia Qin.
When Chen Ran arrived at Xia Tan's house, he thought it would take ordinary effort, but he didn't want to open the door as soon as he wanted.
The house was empty, and there was no one, only a piece of crystal osmanthus cake on the ground.
Chen Ran went to look for Mu Luan without closing the ground, worried that something happened to Lin Qian and Xia Qin, if so, it would be their mistake.
Mu Luan immediately shouted angrily, and many small servants sent people to find them.
I searched the entire Prime Minister's Mansion, but I didn't see the two of them, and I don't know who had the idea to say whether they would be in the ice cellar of the storage room.
Mu Luan immediately ran towards the storage room like crazy, and without waiting for anyone to get the key, he slammed the door open.
Xia Qin seemed to hear movement overhead, climbed up to the mother's body to help Lin Qian up, and said, "Is there anyone outside?" Qianqian, wake up, don't sleep. ”
Mu Luan pricked up his ears and listened, he could pretend not to hear anything, but the word Qianqian made him panic.
Xia Qin tried his best to make a little movement, even though his teeth were chattering from the cold, he still shouted, "Chen Ran, Mu Luan, is it you?" Qianqian was frostbitten, and quickly opened the plank. ”
Mu Luan didn't know the specific location of the ice cellar, or one of the little servants pointed in the direction, lifted the carpet covered on the ground, and saw a lock on it.
There are no valuables in the ice cellar, except for the usual storage of some extra ingredients, which are never locked, so it goes without saying.
Xia Qin's voice kept coming from the ground, and Mu Luan heard it clearly, Lin Qian fell into a coma because of the cold.
Mu Luan turned his head to look at everyone and scolded angrily, "Who is in charge of the storage room, and why is it locked?" I closed the board without checking it, do you know that there is still someone inside, and the key is not yet opened! ”
Lin Qian seemed to hear Mu Luan's voice, frowned, and shook her head.
Xia Qin said happily, "Qianqian, you're awake, Qianqian, don't sleep, you've come to save us." ”
It seemed to be an illusion, Lin Qian fell into a coma again, Xia Qin began to be a little irritable, and said, "Mu Luan, hurry up, Qianqian fainted again." ”
"Get out of the way!"
