On the one hand, I was suspicious, but on the other hand, I was thinking, maybe it was such a coincidence, if his family really suffered such a catastrophe, asking me to help me overtake the appointment would be unkind.

I originally wanted to go to Hu Yunzhi's yard to leave a note for them and tell me about my situation, after all, Hu Dingtang has been busy recently, and it is still a question of whether he can come at night.

But before he left, another girl came to the store, smiled and asked, "Is it Miss Meng?" ”

"Yes, do you need something?" I asked.

The girl replied, "My wife is in the teahouse in the town, so I asked me to come over and ask Miss Meng to come over and talk about something." ”

"Your wife?" I'm a little puzzled, what do you want to buy directly, why do you want to go to the teahouse?

The girl nodded: "After all, Miss Meng's shop is a white business, and my wife is a little evasive, so I also invite Miss Meng Haihan." ”

There is only one teahouse in our town, and it is not far from me, so the other party may have a little background, so it is better to go over and take a look.

I closed the door and followed the girl, and after a few minutes, I entered the teahouse and went to the private room on the second floor.

The girl let me into the private room and closed the door.

In the private room, only me and the lady were left, and when I entered the door, she was cooking tea, with her head bowed, very focused, and I stood on the opposite side of the tea table, without making a sound.

After a moment, she put down the teapot and looked up at me.

She knew I was coming, and when she looked up, she had a smile on her face, but the moment she met me, the smile instantly froze on her face, and a trace of horror seemed to flash in her eyes.

But it was only a matter of a moment, and she immediately laughed again: "Miss Meng, please take a seat." ”

I sat across from her, she poured me a cup of tea, and said, "I didn't expect Miss Meng to be so young and beautiful." ”

I smiled embarrassedly, and she said again: "I took the liberty to ask you to come out, because some time ago, I heard that Miss Meng helped others repair a wedding dress, and the craftsmanship was particularly exquisite. ”

"But Miss Meng is the owner of a shroud shop after all, I'm too timid to go to the store, so I can only invite you out, and please don't blame."

I frowned, few people knew about mending the wedding dress, how could this lady get the news?

As she spoke, she had already taken out the large, pure white mink fleece, but it had burned a finger-sized hole in the hem, but it was a pity.

"It's not difficult to repair this hole, but the raw materials are hard to find." I took the big one and looked at it carefully, but found that the outside of the big one is mink, but the inside is python skin, and it is not easy to match the mink and python skin of the original color and pattern.

The lady immediately said: "So you are an expert, this seems to be just a hole in the matter, but in fact, it is not well matched, this big piece of rice can not be worn out at all, if the little sisters in my circle see it, they can kill me." ”

Indeed, these rich wives, it's okay for everyone to get together, isn't it just a fight to dress up in gold and silver jewelry, no wonder she cares so much.

"I still have a piece of this pure white mink wool that I can use, but this python skin is no longer matched, and now I can only hope that Miss Meng can help me embroider a piece, so that it is real." She flattered, "Of course, Miss Meng will help me do things, and the reward will never be less." ”

"Embroidery, I'm sure I can embroider, it just takes a little time, if you're not taboo......"

"Miss Meng, don't say take it back to the store to embroider, I'm ...... I'm timid, I'm afraid, the sun is still high this time, can you ask Miss Meng to embroider here? ”

As she spoke, she placed the raw materials and a purse in front of me, which opened to reveal a small yellow croaker.

This lady is really generous.

"If it's too late today, I can come tomorrow until I finish repairing this big piece, and it depends on whether Miss Meng has time." She added.

Sincerity was enough, and I had no reason to refuse, so I said, "Then I'll try it, if the embroidery is fast, it should be done before dark." ”

As I spoke, I drew out the silver needle without a trace, made a few strokes on the hole, and the work began.

Embroider python skin first, then mink velvet, and finally tidy up the version.

As soon as I embroidered a little bit, the lady exclaimed, "Miss Meng is really a good craft, such a good craft should be a child's skill, right?" It seems that your parents have put a lot of effort into cultivating you. ”

"I haven't met my parents, I have been dependent on my grandmother since I was a child, and my grandmother made me read a lot of ancient books, and I learned from books little by little." This excuse has not been tried and tested.

"I see," she asked, "what about your parents?" Such a beautiful and talented daughter, how could they be willing to leave you? ”

I was surprised at the time, this lady in front of me, at first glance, is the head of a rich and noble person, and she should not ask me these things so abruptly, after all, I have already made it very clear that I have no parents.

Seeing that I didn't speak, she quickly apologized: "Ah, I said the wrong thing, I'm sorry, Miss Meng, I just think that if you are so beautiful, your mother must also be a great beauty who has captivated the country and the city." ”

"I'm sorry, I haven't met them, so I can't answer Madame's question." I lowered my head and continued to embroider python skin, feeling a little unhappy, "Madame's Dayu is priceless at first glance, if you want to embroider seamlessly, you have to concentrate all your energy and talk more, I'm afraid that there will be flaws in embroidery." ”

"Okay, you embroider, I won't bother you." When she had finished speaking, she really stopped talking.

I lowered my head and embroidered carefully, but I could feel that she kept looking at me, and that gaze gave me a strong sense of oppression.

It wasn't until it was almost dark that I received the last stitch and handed her the patched coat: "Take a look, is it okay?" ”

She hurriedly took it, looked at it several times, and said repeatedly: "Okay, it's too good, it's exactly the same as the original, Miss Meng, you are simply divine." ”

"It's good if you're satisfied." I said, glancing out the window, and said, "It's getting dark, I have to go back, and Madame should come back soon." ”

"Okay." She said, "If I need it next time, I will come to Miss Meng for help." ”

I smiled, then turned around and left, got off the teahouse, walked around the corner, and suddenly remembered that this place was not far from Hu Yunzhi's house, so I decided to turn a corner and go there first.

Just as I was turning the corner, a voice came from not far away: "Madam, is this going back?" ”

I jerked my head up and looked at the source of the voice, and saw a young woman holding the lady in her hand as she was about to get into the carriage.

I don't know why, but I always felt that the young woman's voice seemed to be heard somewhere, but for a moment I couldn't remember it.

After the young woman helped her wife into the carriage, the carriage slowly left, and the direction it went was towards Lin'an City.

I shook my head and laughed at myself for worrying too much, there are more people with similar voices in the world, nothing strange.

But after a few steps forward, I suddenly stopped, and suddenly remembered where I had heard this voice.

On the hill of the old house of the fox clan!

That time, I was almost ambushed, and the time Hu Yunzhi saved me, he stuffed me into the carriage, and I couldn't see the scene outside, but I could hear the sound of the outside talking.

The woman named Huilan, yes, that woman.

The voice is exactly the same, I'm sure it's her!

This Huilan is a person from the old mansion of the fox clan, even Hu Yunzhi wants to call her 'Sister Huilan', she is so considerate and respectful to this lady with such an identity, so who is this lady?

It should be her elders, right?

Inexplicably, I was a little scared and wanted to see Hu Dingtang immediately.

I don't know if this lady really came to me to help with the mending of clothes, or if she ......

No, it can't be.

A person like her must be very prudent and cautious in doing things, and before she comes to see me, she must have investigated me, so since she has investigated, how can she not know my relationship with Hu Dingtang?

Maybe she didn't investigate me carefully, but just heard about me and Hu Dingtang together, and came to take a look at me?

I don't understand, thinking back to the first time I saw this lady today, to the way she looked at me, and the words she said to me, the more I thought about it, the more worried I became.

Who will she be? Could it be Hu Dingqian or Hu Dingkun's family?

Friend or foe?

The big ...... Shouldn't I help her fix it?

Thinking while walking, he soon arrived at Hu Yunzhi's house, went in and left a note, only saying that he had something to see Hu Dingtang or Hu Yunzhi, and then went back.

When I got home, it was already completely dark outside, and the little guy said he would come to pick me up in the evening, but so far, he hasn't shown up.

I closed the door of the shop, and I couldn't eat or sleep in a fit of anxiety, and finally decided not to wade into this troubled water.

Whether or not there was a problem with that little guy, I couldn't go with him, just in case.

At about nine o'clock in the evening, there was a knock on the door of the shop, and the little guy shouted at the door, "Miss Meng, I'll pick you up." ”

I gritted my teeth and didn't answer, he called a few more times in a row, I didn't answer a word, he called and should have left by himself.

After a while, he really stopped screaming, and I was relieved.

Turned around to make the bed, ready to go into the quilt to sleep, just shook off the quilt, and suddenly a voice came from behind him: "Miss Meng, you are here, why don't you ignore me?" ”

The voice rang out so coldly that I was so frightened that my soul was about to fall, and when I looked back, I saw the little guy standing at the door of my room.

"How did you get in?" From the front door of the store, to the backyard to the bedroom, there is a distance, and he walks so fast without making a sound?

The little guy scratched his head and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, the door of your store is not closed, I slapped it a few times and it opened by itself, I saw that the light was on here and came over." ”

I frowned, I clearly remember that the door was closed today, I specially bolted the door bolt very tightly, and checked it several times, how could it be possible to open it after a few shots?

This man is really not simple.

"Miss Meng, you promised me something during the day, are you still counting now?" He asked.

"I ...... I'm not feeling well, I'm afraid I won't be able to go today, can you let me rest for a good night, and then go tomorrow? "I thought, if I had to hold it up, it would be better to have a day than a night.

The little guy smiled coldly: "I can wait, but my family may not be able to wait." ”

"They're not your family at all, are they?" Behind me against the bed, there is no way back, I can't figure out the roots of this little guy, now I can only stabilize him.

"No, you're wrong." "From the moment they died, we were a family. ”

I squinted at the little guy, and from the moment he said that, something exploded in my head.

He is not a human, but he is not a ghost either, so there is a high probability that he is a walking corpse with a very high level of cultivation, otherwise, I wouldn't be unable to see any clues.

It seems that my concerns are right, this guy is not from Daqing Village, and he is clearly from the mass grave.

Tonight, he wanted to trick me into doing something to me, I can't guess, but if I don't go, it seems that it will be difficult to avoid him.

"Miss Meng, let's go." The little servant said, "Don't be afraid, it's just that my master wants to see you, and he won't do anything to you." ”

"Who is your master? Hu Dingqian or Hu Dingkun? I asked directly.

The little guy was a little surprised, probably because he didn't expect me to call these two names directly, but then he said: "It seems that the third master really spoils you, so for the sake of the third master, Miss Meng should also take this trip." ”

This is what clearly told me that whether it was coaxing or forcibly taking me away, it was to force Hu Dingtang to cooperate with his master, and he couldn't get around it.

I have been targeted by them for too long, and what they have been waiting for may be to consider my status in Hu Dingtang's mind, but now, as soon as our relationship is confirmed, they can't hold back and attack me.

"I can't participate in the battle in your old mansion, and I don't think Hu Dingtang will do anything for an insignificant person like me, you miscalculated." I struggled.

The little girl said indifferently: "It's okay, no matter what, Miss Meng just go with me, I don't want to be rough with a beauty like you." ”

I closed my eyes, thinking about how to fight back to escape, and the little guy said: "Since Miss Meng can tell the name of my master, you should understand that if my master makes up his mind to invite Miss Meng, then, if you can hide from the first day of junior high school, you can't hide from the fifteenth." ”

When it came to the number 'fifteen', his voice was clearly emphatically raised.

He is a threat, but he is the truth, even if I can escape tonight, I can't help but be stared at by them every moment in the future, this move, they must go.

The little guy saw that I was a little loose, and made a gesture of please towards the door, and I had to go with him.

Outside the door, an ox cart was parked there, and I walked to that side, and when I was about to get on the ox cart, I looked around, but unfortunately I didn't see anyone.

It seems that Hu Dingtang and the others are indeed very busy, and they didn't see the note I left at all, otherwise they should have rushed over at this time.

Maybe before they were ready to make a move on me, they had already figured out how to contain Hu Dingtang and make him lose his skills, and I have to be grateful that they didn't kidnap me directly, but took a relatively gentle way.

It can also be seen from this that they wanted to cooperate with Hu Dingtang and pull him into the water, rather than tearing their faces from the beginning.

In this darkness, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at me, and I can't resist it on my own.

After thinking about it, I had to get into the ox cart, which was no better than the horse-drawn carriage, and there was no enclosed carriage, and I sat on the bench at the back, and the little man followed, and sat on my left hand side.

The ox cart immediately moved, and quickly moved forward, and soon it was up the mountain road, and the cart was bumpy.

Every time I go a little forward, my heart darkens a little lower, worried about myself, and even more worried about Hu Dingtang, now that Hu Dingkun has made a move, someone from the old mansion has come to explore me, which forces Hu Dingtang to make a choice.

Whatever choice he makes, it will be a huge test for him, and he must make a decision and secure his position by September 15, otherwise, on September 15, he may be miserable.

The ox cart swayed through a third of the mountain road, I held my knees with both hands, and I had already accepted my fate, and the little guy actually comforted me: "Miss Meng don't have to worry, a talented person like you, even if you don't follow my third master, you will be reused elsewhere, just see if Miss Meng can make the right choice." ”

Heh, this is starting to win people's hearts, not following Hu Dingtang, but following his master, right?

"I'm not worried, I'm just thinking, your master is so blatantly cultivating his own power outside, can the old mansion let it go?"

"If you want to manage it, you can manage it, right?" The little guy was obviously proud, "My master is shrewd and capable, and he has conquered a group of like-minded people many years ago, and he must be a hundred responses, but the master is still reluctant to keep the third master by his side, and the brothers can take care of each other." ”

This is really beautiful, he said that his rebellion was what everyone expected, and the persecution of Hu Dingtang was said to be brotherly, and they all said that Hu Dingtang was a rebel and would become a great traitor.

"The third master has a twisted temperament, if it doesn't make sense at that time, he may have to ask Miss Meng to persuade him more, after all, this is for his good." The little guy added another sentence.

I didn't say anything to him, but just looked ahead, watching the ox cart approach in the direction of the empty village little by little.

The ox cart went a little further, and suddenly the driver of the ox cart in front of him shook his whip to whip the cow in front of him, and the sound of the whip hurt to hear, but the old cow did not take a step further.

"What's going on?" The little guy stood up and asked nervously.

The coachman shook his head: "The cow is not leaving, and I don't know what is going on." ”

As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind rose from the ground, and the old cow in front suddenly raised his head to the sky and roared, and his two front hooves raised his old height towards the sky, fixed in mid-air, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Immediately after, a dark shadow rushed straight at me and scooped me up.
