Chapter 24 Showing the Traces of the Heart
At this time, Shaoyu was standing in the attic, basically satisfied with Monroe's performance today. Last night, when the pothos fell asleep, Shao Yu and Mengluo lay on the bamboo couch and chatted. Shao Yu saw that she was depressed and secretly wept, so he made up his mind to help her, told her some things about her brother Pei Shaoli, and helped her come up with some ideas.
Today's chance encounter in the pavilion was asked by Shaoyu to go to Monroe, and encouraged her to be brave, just let the other party know your mind. Looking at the situation, the effect is good, Shao Yu couldn't help but secretly give himself a thumbs up.
During the lunch meal, Meng Luo was a little absent-minded, and after eating a little, she said to Shao Yu and Lu Luo: "I have used it, you can eat it, I will go to the study to find a few books to read." ”
After walking a few steps, he turned back and said, "Don't send someone to find me, I'll be back in a while." ”
Shihua wanted to go with her, but Monroe didn't let her follow, but sent her to dinner.
Monroe went down the attic and went straight to the study on the east side, and when she got to the study, the door opened with a slight push.
There was no one in the study, the feeling was that she was too anxious to come early, she was bending down to find an interesting book to read, so as to pass the time, when she heard the door creak, and Pei Shao left and came in.
Suddenly, Mengluo's face was hot, her heart was pounding, and her heart was almost jumping out. Until the man walked behind her, held her shoulders and turned her around, the two looked at each other silently, their eyes flowed, and the affection in each other's eyes was surging, and then Mengluo came to Pei Shaoli's arms.
Meng Luo said cautiously: "Second Brother Pei, is it really you?" I'm so happy, did you think we'd be together? ”
Pei Shaoli was stunned for a moment and said, "Of course it will, silly girl." ”
"Then what if my father and mother don't agree?"
Pei Shaoli nodded the tip of her nose and said, "Don't worry, I will do everything I can to get them to agree." ”
The two embraced each other silently, neither of them speaking.
At this time, I only heard the green pothos shouting outside the door: "Sister, what book are you looking for?" Are you in there? ”
Pei Shaoli saw that the window behind him was open, and his figure flashed, and the person had already arrived outside the window.
Meng Luo straightened her hair and went to open the door, and Lu Luo said: "Sister, what kind of book are you looking for, I want to find a travelogue to read." ”
The two sisters found a few books and went back to the attic.
In the past few days, there has been a headless murder in Jeju, the owner of the largest gambling house in Jeju City, Mei Qingzhou, was killed, and his body was hung on the gate of the gambling house.
And the brothers and sisters of the Jin family also left Zhuangzi today without saying goodbye, leaving only a letter.
Pei Shaoli was not surprised and didn't take it to heart, but at noon, his father Pei Zhong asked someone to pass the word, saying that there was a little trouble in the dart game, and asked Pei Shaoli to go back and deal with it quickly.
It's just a coincidence that Mrs. He's Xu also sent someone to send a message to let the sisters Monroe and Luluo go back, saying that King Qi Junwang had arrived in Jeju.
The Monroe sisters could only pack up their things and go back, Pei Shaoli wanted Shaoyu to go back to Jeju as well, but when he thought that Jeju had not been peaceful recently, he gave up again.
Shao Yu doesn't want to go back, she wants to stay for a few more days, and there is nothing to do when she goes back, and the business in the shop basically doesn't have to worry about now, with her brother Pei Shao leaving, she is still more relieved.
Pei Shao left behind Ah Jiu and Cui'er when he left, and Shao Yu watched the carriage get farther and farther away, until he couldn't see it, and then turned back to Zhuangzi.
After Mengluo and the green pothos sisters left, Shao Yu was bored every day, so he began to practice calligraphy and draw. As she painted, she was surprised that the man in the painting was actually Xiao Zhan, and Shao Yu couldn't help but feel a little weak.
She crumpled the painting and wanted to throw it away, but she didn't want to put it away in a hurry.
Shao Yu stayed for another seven or eight days, preparing to go back tomorrow morning after packing up her things, this night, she slept until midnight and suddenly woke up, she looked around, it was dark, and the room was quiet.
The little insects outside were chanting constantly, as if they were always the same. But Shao Yu felt unusual, she always felt that there were people in the room, and when she thought about it herself, she was shocked into a cold sweat.
Since experiencing something like this once, Shao Yu has basically become a frightened bird, and any wind and grass will make her tremble.
She tried to behave as normal as she could, pretending to wake up in the middle of the night, getting out of bed and walking towards the door. Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the door, Shao Yu couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, and before he could close the corners of his bent mouth, he only felt a cold and painful neck, followed by a strong smell of blood behind him, only to hear the man suppress his voice and say: "Don't shout, otherwise I will cut your throat." ”
This voice is very familiar, so familiar that Shao Yu rushed out and said, "Brother Xiao, I'm Yueniang, what's wrong with you?" Hurt? ”
This person was Xiao Zhan, and he was stunned for a moment and said, "Yueniang, why are you here?" Great, listen to me, the eldest brother is very seriously injured. I had a sachet in my waist, a wound on my back and shoulder blades, a knife on the left side of my front two inches from my chest, and a ...... on my leg. ”
After holding on for so long, this will really not be able to hold on, Xiao Zhan fell into a coma, Shao Yu's eyes have adapted to the darkness, and he helped him finish the medicine in the dark, and changed into the clean clothes of his brother Pei Shaoli, but the wound on his back is too long, and he must be stitched, otherwise the knife edge will not last at all.
Cui'er came in at this time and whispered, "Girl, how did the slave hear you?" ”
Shao Yu said: "Brother Xiao is injured, and it is very serious, there is no medicine for knife wounds in this Zhuangzi, and the wound on his back is very long, and he needs stitches." We have to hurry into the city, otherwise Brother Xiao will be worried about his life. ”
Cui'er said: "Okay, I'll pack up my things, and when it's a little bright, we'll leave." ”
In fact, there is another sentence that Cui'er didn't say, that is, you can't stay here for a long time, and once those who killed Xiao Zhan find it, it will be troublesome.
Xiao Zhan was exhausted just now, fell asleep for a while, and woke up again, seeing Yueniang guarding his side, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
He hurriedly said, "What time is it, we need to get out of here quickly." They'll be able to find out this soon, and then they won't be able to leave. ”
Yueniang said: "Cui'er and I plan to do this, we are going to enter the city when the day is a little brighter." ”
Xiao Zhan looked at the eastern sky and said, "I can't wait, let's leave now." If you don't leave, I'm afraid I won't be able to go, I'm injured, I'm not their opponent. ”
Here, Cui'er came with Ah Jiu and said, "The girl's things have been packed, the dogs in the Zhuangzi around this time are barking badly, let's go quickly." ”
Xiao Zhan's legs couldn't walk at all at this time, and Ah Jiu directly carried him down the attic. Xiao Zhan said suddenly: "Take away all the bloody clothes and handkerchiefs, clean up, open the windows, and don't leave the smell of blood." ”
Cui'er hurriedly went up to clean up again, and after a cup of tea, she came down, holding a bag in her hand and saying, "It's all cleaned up, let's go, we can't delay it any longer." ”
Ah Jiu put down Xiao Zhan and drove the carriage over, Shao Yu and Cui'er helped him into the carriage, and Ah Jiu and Cui'er drove the carriage in front.
Ah Jiu said "drive" softly, and the horse ran. Follow the pipe, and disappear at the bend in the intersection ahead.
At this time, the sky is showing the white of the fish's belly, and a new day is coming.
