Body Chapter 174: There's a trap

Tao Gui's family responded: "You be quieter!" ”

The warning only made Mu Xiang lower her voice a little, she continued to pat the dilapidated wooden door panel, and asked urgently, "Aunt Ding, are you here to let me out?" Can I get out, can you let me out......"

A day and a night of detention almost made the timid Mu Xiang mentally break down.

Tao Gui's family coughed, tried to soften his voice, and said: "Muxiang, I can still let you out now, you can wait ......."

"Why not!" Mu Xiang immediately screamed uncontrollably, she interrupted Tao Gui's words, and asked in a panic: "Why can't you let me out, why do you want to lock me up, Aunt Ding, you said you, you said I would be fine, you said I would go out soon......"

"You girl! Be quiet! Tao Gui's family frowned, she looked in the direction of the courtyard gate far away, only to see that under the dim lantern, a hunchbacked old woman stood by the door and beckoned to her, she calmed down, turned her head and raised her voice and scolded: "Why are you still so shocked, how many times have you been taught...... Aunt Ding is here to talk to you about business, if you do this again, Aunt Ding can leave......"

"Aunt Ding, don't go, don't go......" Mu Xiang finally regained some consciousness and hurriedly shouted: "Mu Xiang is obedient, Aunt Ding, don't leave me alone......"

Outside the door, Tao Gui's family pouted disdainfully, but said with relief: "That's right!" ”

"But, but Aunt Ding," Mu Xiang choked up: "Why can't you let me out, even Qinghua has gone out, why can't I go out, why do you still keep me......"

Listening to Mu Xiang's repeated questions, Tao Gui's family only felt a headache, she snorted impatiently, and said angrily: "Who told you that Qinghua was let out, Qinghua was taken away, it was because Mrs. Tai wanted to see her and ask her something...... If it weren't for the fact that Qinghua was taken to the main room, I wouldn't dare to come to see you right now, wouldn't ......"

"Really, really?" Mu Xianghu said suspiciously: "Didn't Qinghua be released?" ”

"Naturally not!" Tao Gui's family stuffed a warm paper bag in her hand through the crack in the door below, and said, "Aunt Ding naturally won't lie to you, Qinghua may come back in a while, this, take it quickly, give it to you to eat......"

Mu Xiang picked up the paper bag on the ground, sniffed, and instantly smelled the smell of chicken legs, and at that moment, her stomach screamed.

Since being imprisoned in the firewood room, Mu Xiang has not eaten anything, she has long been hungry, and now that she smells the smell of meat, she can't help but open the paper bag in a hurry, grab the chicken leg, and open her mouth is a big mouthful.

Hearing the sound of swallowing behind the wooden door, Tao Guijia's face couldn't help but show a contemptuous smile again.

"Aunt Ding......" Mu Xiang had chicken in her mouth, but she still asked vaguely: "I, when will I, can, can I go out......"

"Don't worry about it first," Tao Gui's soft voice comforted him: "Mrs. Tai has already seen the Qing painting, I think, in a few days, this matter will have a result, and you will naturally be released at that time......"

"But, but Aunt Ding ......" Mu Xiang put down the chicken leg in her hand and said worriedly: "I, I'm a little scared ......"

"What are you afraid of!" Tao Gui's family raised his voice and scolded: "I knew that you girl was too timid to do anything, what did you say you were afraid of!" You didn't do anything, what does this matter have to do with you...... Don't worry, Aunt Ding, who was so sure of being killed in the past, can save you, but now you are just frightened and hit the second lady, don't be afraid......"

Babbled a few words of comfort to Mu Xiang, and Tao Gui's family soon left.

Not long after Tao Gui's family left, Qinghua was pushed into the firewood room again.

Almost the moment he saw the sound outside the door, Mu Xiang had already curled up in the pile of dry grass, and after finding that it was Qing Painting who had come in, Mu Xiang shrank in even more fear.

Mu Xiang is afraid of Qing painting, before, Qing Hua was a popular big girl next to Mrs. Tai, Mu Xiang as a maid serving by her aunt's side is naturally afraid of offending Qing Hua, and now, her fear has added to the thief's heart...... Therefore, although she and Qinghua were locked in the same room for a day and night, she didn't dare to say a word to Qinghua.

Qinghua didn't notice the wood fragrance at all, she walked to the firewood in a distracted way, and when she was about to do it, her body suddenly froze, and she gently sniffed the smell in the air.

This taste......

Haru's cold gaze immediately cast to the wood incense in the corner.

Although Mu Xiang had always hung her head and closed her eyes, as if she was born with feelings, her body couldn't help but shake, and she shrank back into the dry grass pile as if she was afraid.

Qinghua hooked the corners of her mouth disdainfully, she slowly sat down on the ground, found a relatively comfortable position, and then closed her eyes.

In this long day and night, Qinghua never slept, she was always worried, always afraid, and even on the way to see Mrs. Tai just now, she was so frightened that she almost couldn't move her footsteps......

Qinghua pulled the corners of her mouth sadly.

Mrs. Tai's reaction was really as he thought, no matter how dedicated she was to serving Mrs. Tai, Mrs. Tai would not be half distracted by her......

However, after seeing Mrs. Tai again, after the last glimmer of hope in her heart was shattered, she relaxed instead.

What are you afraid of? Qing Hua thought, isn't it a big deal and a life!

Her birth was a mistake, her father didn't care about her life or death at all, or rather, her father wanted her to die, but her life was big, even if she was beaten and scolded by her father, she still survived...... Even though she was sold to human traffickers and there was such a serious plague on the road, she still survived, she went all the way to Beijing, and she was sold into the Zhenguo Houfu......

Her hometown was flooded the year before last, and it is said that no one in the village where her father and brother lived......

Thinking of this, the corners of Qinghua's eyes hurt a little, and she thought, she has lived enough, at least, longer than her father and brother...... She's worth it......

Thinking about it, Qinghua really fell asleep gradually.

……

Concubine.

In the water jade courtyard.

Aunt Zhang's grandmother was crooked on the collapse of the inner room, her head a little bit, obviously dozing off.

Xiao Tao beat her legs for Aunt Zhang's grandmother and yawned silently.

Finally, when Aunt Zhang woke up again, Xiao Tao couldn't help but say: "Auntie, go to bed, the slave is guarding here, as soon as there is news, the slave will wake up the aunt and grandmother immediately." ”

"Oh." Aunt Zhang straightened her waist a little uncomfortably, glanced at the dark sky outside the window with sleepy eyes, and asked, "What time is it......?"

Xiao Tao calculated in her heart, frowned, and said with some puzzlement: "The slave has calculated, it should be the time, this, strange, why hasn't there been a sound yet......"

"Are you sure she ate what you sent?" Aunt Zhang stared at Xiao Tao and asked.

"Sure! Are you sure! Xiao Tao reassured: "Auntie and grandma, don't worry, after the slave and maid sent the tonic soup, she watched Aunt Luo finish eating it before leaving." ”

Aunt Zhang didn't believe that Xiao Tao dared to lie to her, but Aunt Zhang's face also showed deep puzzlement, and she secretly thought in her heart, since Aunt Luo drank the tonic soup, why didn't there move now?

Xiao Tao's eyes rolled, and said: "Grandma, the slave maid thinks that with Aunt Luo's temperament, she is enduring it at this time, Aunt Luo's identity is not as valuable as Grandma, even if she is a little uncomfortable, Aunt Luo doesn't have the confidence to call a doctor in the middle of the night......"

Under this analysis, Aunt Zhang nodded in agreement.

At this time.

In the courtyard.

Under the heavy curtains, Wei Xian was turning over and over irritably.

Yin Liu, who was lying on the bed, stared at Wei Xian, who turned over vigorously, and couldn't help but think about what major events had happened recently to make her young lady like this.

Wei Xian suddenly stood up and called out in a rough voice: "Yinliu! ”

"Miss, what's wrong?" Yinliu, who was sleeping on the collapsed, hurriedly got up, she turned on the night light, lifted the curtain, and asked, "Miss, are you thirsty?" ”

Wei Xian hung her face and didn't speak.

Yinliu had to wait quietly.

After a while.

"Yinliu," Wei Xian's voice tightened, "I, I seem to hear a commotion outside!" ”

Noise?

Yinliu listened intently, but she didn't hear anything other than the sound of insects.

"You, you go out and have a look!" Wei Xian suddenly said urgently, "You go and see what's going on outside." ”

Although Yinliu was confused, he only paused for a second, and then immediately responded: "Hey! Slave and maid, go and see! ”

……

Three rooms.

Manman returned to the garden.

"Miss, Miss," Ta Ge gently nudged Wei Man, who was sleeping.

Wei Man opened her eyes in a daze, and saw that it was a song, her expression was stunned, and the confusion immediately receded from her face, she sat up with a "whew", and asked soberly, "What's wrong?" What happened? ”

"Miss, there is news from the Good Heart Hall, saying that Aunt Luo's grandmother is seriously ill!" Singing the road.

Aunt Luo's grandmother is seriously ill!?

How could it suddenly become seriously ill!

"How serious?" Wei Man got out of bed and asked, "Can you go and ask for a doctor?" ”

"This ......" Ta Ge hesitated.

"What's wrong?" Wei Man immediately realized that something was wrong, thought of a possibility, and couldn't help asking: "Could it be Aunt Luo, is it Aunt Luo, she ......?"

Ta Ge was stunned for a moment, and said busily: "No, there is no ...... yet"

That's good!

Wei Man breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, Aunt Luo and Grandma can't die, at least, definitely not at this time, when Zhenguo Hou Wei Bai is not there......

"Miss ......" sang and stopped.

"What the hell is going on?" Wei Man said impatiently.

"Slave, slave maid thinks ......" Ta Ge gritted her teeth and said: "Slave maid thinks that Miss can't interfere in this matter, this, this is obviously a trap set by Aunt Zhang for Miss......"
