Text Chapter 105 Yellow Paper Packet
But Ling Xiang seemed to be embarrassed, she put her two hands behind her back, twisted her hands tightly together, dodging Aunt Li's hand, her face suddenly turned pale, and she said something in her mouth, judging from her demeanor, it seemed that she was fighting with Aunt Li opposite, but because Yan Xiaoyan and Ya Xiang were too far away, they didn't dare to get too close for fear of being discovered, and they couldn't hear what she was saying at all.
However, Aunt Li seemed to be angered by what she said, and when she came up, she pushed her hard with her strong arm, pushing Ling Xiangsheng to a staggering moment.
Yan Xiaowei and Ya Xiang bit their lips tightly, so they barely didn't make a sound.
Over there, Aunt Li took two steps forward, and despite Lingxiang's struggle, she rudely ripped off her clothes, and the force was so great that she almost tore the clothes on Lingxiang's body.
At this moment, a small paper bag fell from Lingxiang's body with a "click".
Yan Xiaowei only had time to catch a glimpse of the yellowed papyrus outside, so she asked Aunt Li's fat hands to pick it up, and she couldn't help but put it into her arms.
Lingxiang wanted to reach out to grab it back, but was knocked down by Aunt Li's elbow, and before long, Aunt Li grabbed Lingxiang's ear as if she was not puzzled, and said a few words in her ear, and Lingxiang slowly became honest.
Aunt Li saw her sitting on the ground obediently with her head down, so she nodded with satisfaction, walked past her without looking back, and went straight into the small kitchen inside.
Yan Xiaoyan saw Lingxiang on the ground slowly get up, and a pair of eyes seemed to have no focus, falling to the ground suddenly. The clothes on his body were torn open, revealing the white middle coat inside, and the knees and buttocks were covered with dirt, which was extremely embarrassing.
But, unconsciously, she walked into her room like a soulless puppet, and closed the door tightly, leaving no gap.
Yan Xiaoyu couldn't help but wonder, what were these two people doing? What is it about the contents of the yellow paper bag that makes Ling Xiang so depressed?
Yaxiang was just as confused as she was, so she had to stand on the rock and continue to look inside.
After a while, Aunt Li walked over from the small kitchen with a tray and a blue and white porcelain bowl containing a black-brown liquid.
Yan Xiaowei is very familiar with this thing, and it is clearly a traditional Chinese medicine.
Wait a minute!
She instantly thought of the paper bag that Aunt Li and Lingxiang had just argued about! Didn't these two people want to poison Aunt Liu, right?
As soon as this thought flashed, Yan Xiaoyi's face instantly became solemn!
Actually, it's no wonder that she thinks people so badly, it's just that the people in this Yan Mansion have ill intentions, and they would rather believe it than believe it! What's more, although this Aunt Li is Aunt Liu's confidant, who can say clearly whether she has the same heart as Aunt Liu in her heart?
What she could think of, Ya Xiang beside her naturally thought of it, only to see that she hurriedly jumped off the big stone and turned around to leave.
Yan Xiaoyi's eyes were quick, and she grabbed her wrist, and her voice was extremely low: "Yaxiang, where are you going?" ”
Ya Xiang twisted her eyebrows: "I'm going to go in and take a look at the bowl of medicine to see if there's anything in it!" It's not the best, if it is, Lingxiang will be a big deal! A few of us bought it together, the last time Mingxiang was caught stealing things by Aunt Liu and hit the board, and then she casually matched a small house, this time Lingxiang will be even more finished if something happens! As long as I'm here, I can't let this happen right under my nose! As he spoke, he shook Yan Xiaoyi's hand down.
Yan Xiaowei let go of this hand like a stream, but the other one was wrapped up like an octopus.
Ya Xiang saw that Yan Xiaoyi's face sank suddenly, and her body shrank, but she still opened her mouth: "Second girl, you don't know, a few of us were sold to Yan's Mansion by our sons since we were children, and we depend on each other as sisters, and the relationship is like me and the second girl." Speaking of this, she sobbed: "Second girl, if something happens to you, I will definitely take action, and if something happens to Lingxiang, I can't ignore it!" ”
She in turn reached out and grabbed Yan Xiaoyi's wrist and shook it: "Second girl, you also saw it just now, Lingxiang she was not voluntary, she was forced, there must be something strange in this matter, I have to go and see!" Otherwise, something will really happen to Aunt Liu at that time, the East Window incident will happen, and in the end, the scapegoat will definitely be Lingxiang! ”
Yan Xiaowei took a deep breath: "I know you're anxious about Lingxiang's matter, but you didn't think about the consequences and planned to go in so rashly?" What do you say when you go in? Say I just climbed the wall and saw you two sneaking around? What if Aunt Li doesn't admit it when she dies, or puts all the guilt on Lingxiang? Or maybe there are no such messy things at all, it's clear that we are scared of ourselves, but when we climb the wall and peep, it's not clear! ”
Ya Xiang obviously didn't expect this layer, her watery eyes blinked, as pitiful as a small animal.
After a while, she bit her lip: "Then I'll go in directly and say that it's okay to help the second girl find something?" ”
Yan Xiaowei angrily stretched out her index finger and poked her forehead: "People said that Aunt Liu was resting and it was inconvenient to open the door, so what should I do if I tell you directly?" You can't even get in, let alone see if there's anything in the medicine bowl! ”
Ya Xiang listened, flattened her mouth and almost cried, reached out and grabbed Yan Xiaoyi's sleeve tightly and choked her throat: "Second girl, then what do you say?" I'm really worried about Lingxiang! ”
Yan Xiaowei couldn't help biting her lip too, she was still worried about herself! If there is really something in this bowl of medicine, Aunt Liu has three long and two short, in case someone else finds out that her title deed has fallen in Tingfeng Zhai, she can't wash it even if she jumps into the Huangpu River! What's more, there is really no Huangpu River in this time and space!
She put her hand on Yaxiang's hand to soothe her emotions a little, thought about it, and beckoned to her.
Preventing anyone from entering the grove, the two of them moved back to their original places the two large stones that had just been placed in the corner of the wall for footsteps. Before he had time to reach out and pat the dust on his body, Yan Xiaoyan took Ya Xiang's hand and walked along the backyard of Tingfeng Zhai in the grove.
Aunt Liu's bedroom is close to this backyard, towering, with unknown roof beasts carved on the slightly warped eaves.
Yan Xiaowei took Ya Xiang to search for several laps in the grove in the backyard, and finally found a big locust tree next to Aunt Liu's bedroom.
At that moment, he untied his belt.
Seeing her loose clothes, Ya Xiang wandered around the grove uneasily, lowered her voice and whispered, "Second girl, what are you doing here?" ”
Yan Xiaowei threw the untied belt on the thick branches of the old locust tree, knotted the two ends of the belt, and turned back to Yaxiang and said, "Don't be stunned, hurry up and untie your belt to me, it's not enough for me to use alone!" ”
Ya Xiang took off the belt suspiciously, handed it to Yan Xiaoyi, and was taken by her and hung on the branch according to the appearance just now.
Yan Xiaowei propped her two hands into the circle formed by the belt and pressed it hard, as if she was testing the bearing capacity of the belt.
Ya Xiang saw that one belt was hanging from her thigh, and the other was hanging from her shoulder socket, and instantly understood Yan Xiaoyi's intentions. She wanted to use these two belts to make two ladders in the shape of swings.
Seeing this, he hurriedly went up and tried the weight of the belt, but he didn't want to, but Yan Xiaowei reached out and pulled it aside: "I'll climb up this 'ladder' to see how the situation is inside, don't move down there, help me let the wind go!" ”
Ya Xiang looked at the tall trees and walls, then looked at the towering roof, and shook her head: "Second girl, let's change me, I'll climb up and take a look, it's too dangerous on top, what if I fall down?" ”
Yan Xiaowei shook her head: "No, you girl is frizzy, if someone finds out, she will definitely show her stuffing, or I'll come!" ”
As he spoke, he ignored Yaxiang's arguments, and uncontrollably lifted the hem of his skirt, and while holding on to the trunk of the tree, he stepped on the circle formed by the belt.
The belt took her weight, and it was suddenly stretched and straightened, as if it would fall off at the slightest movement. Because he stepped on the belt with one foot, his body swayed with the belt, swinging in the air, and Yaxiang was frightened for a while, and couldn't help but lean over and reach out to hold the belt steadily.
With her assistance, Yan Xiaoyi's body was obviously a lot more balanced, and she quickly stepped on the other belt with her other foot, and finally climbed the back wall after swaying with it for a while.
Yan Xiaoyu wiped the sweat on her head, looked back and waved to Ya Xiang: "I'm going up, wait for me!" ”
As he spoke, he stepped on the eaves of Aunt Liu along the courtyard wall, and climbed up with his hands and feet on it.
Fortunately, although the roof was high, it was not very steep, and she climbed to the middle in a few steps. His eyes roamed around the roof, estimated the position of Aunt Liu's bed, and slowly moved over.
She rubbed her two hands together and wiped off the sweat from nervousness and apprehension, and then carefully picked open a tile on the roof with her fingertips, leaking a crack slightly, and looked into Aunt Liu's house along the gap!
After looking around below, I saw Aunt Liu lying on the bed, because the curtain on one side of the bed fell, Yan Xiaowei couldn't see her face clearly, she could only see her pale and slender arms hanging down the bed, and the nails that were usually very well maintained had faded and mottled at some point, like the old paint of the copper door that had fallen into disrepair.
Yan Xiaowei frowned, and looked around Aunt Liu, and there was no trace of the bowl of medicine in the corner of the bedside table. She couldn't help but sink in her heart, could it be that she had just delayed with Yaxiang for too long, and the medicine had already been drunk by Aunt Liu?
was anxious, at the moon door inside and outside, the wind chimes jingled, and then a fat hand lifted the pearl door curtain and walked in with a medicine bowl.
