Chapter 45: What did you do?
Speaking of which, Qiao Nianxi can be regarded as doing her a favor today, although Qiao Chu's wailing and pain have pretended to be an element, but the strength just now fell directly on the paved stone road, which was enough for her to hurt for a while, plus she was drowning and kicked before, and she estimated that she would not even be able to get out of the gate of the third courtyard in a short time.
Therefore, poor people must have something to hate, and they are talking about Qiao Chupian such a person!
At the end of the day's practice, Qiao Nian said goodbye to the old lady and Cui's mother and walked to her yard.
Seeing from a distance that Mother Chun, who had already returned, was busy in the house, Qiao Nianxi didn't think much about going straight inside, maybe because of her weak heart, Mother Chun turned her head to look out and saw Qiao Nianxi.
With a pale face, Mother Chun instantly threw something in her hand out of sight.
With a panicked face, Mother Chun has endured it for so long, and she is finally about to do it! Thinking of this, Qiao Nianxi stepped up under her feet and walked in the direction of the yard!
"Mother Chun, what are you doing!"
Entering the courtyard, Qiao Nianxi shouted inside, and his eyes brought out a cold glow.
"I, I'm cleaning up the room!"
Chun's mother was a little nervous, and she actually wrung the rag she was holding in her hand while talking.
"Tidying up the room has always been done by knowing how to paint, why did Chun's mother suddenly remember to tidy up the room?" Qiao Nianxi raised her eyelids and glanced at Chun's mother, her face was light, but it made Chun's mother's heart tremble.
"There are two people in our yard now, the slave maid is by the side of the young lady, and all the things in the yard are given to Zhihua, and now I think about it, it's hard for this child, it just so happens that Miss doesn't have to follow today, the slave and maid want to see what can be done!"
This kind of rhetoric seems to really explain the abnormality of Chun's mother just now, but Qiao Nianxi has always been good at interrogation, and she has another unique ability to inspect, look at and distinguish between colors, these few words are obviously lying!
Putting Mother Chun's expression into her eyes, Qiao Nianxi withdrew her gaze, reached out and picked up another grape and put it in her mouth: "Since you are with me, you'd better see your identity clearly, sometimes if you take a wrong step, it will be a catastrophe, before you raise your feet, think clearly!"
While speaking, Qiao Nianxi reached out and picked up a grape, stuffed it into his mouth, and did not spit out the skin.
"The slave knows that she is wrong, and she will definitely change it in the future!" Mother Chun wrung her brows, but seeing that Qiao Nianxi didn't ask again, she breathed a sigh of relief.
originally thought that Qiao Nianxi was weak but could grasp it, but after getting along in the past few days, her heart became more and more flustered, not that she pinched Qiao Nianxi, but that her old fritters, who had lived in the backyard for many years, were pinched by her child!
"Alright, get up!"
Qiao Nianxi waved her hand, still with such a disapproving expression, but in the eyes of Chun's mother, she felt a chill, and cold sweat broke out in her palms.
Zhihua stood on the side and watched, although Chun's mother usually let her work, but it was not so excessive, and she couldn't make such a hypocrisy!
I couldn't figure it out in my heart, but I knew that the painting looked at Chun's mother's sweaty appearance, and subconsciously felt that something was going on, as for what it was, she didn't have Qiao Nianxi's sharp observation, and she didn't have a clue at all.
Letting Chun's mother step back, Qiao Nianxi was still standing at the table in the middle of the room, looking around the room.
She was sure that Chun's mother must have done something in the room, but she suddenly came back and interrupted her, and, judging by her expression, things should not have been done.
"Miss, did Mother Chun do anything in the house? Slave maid clean up again!"
"No, now is not the time for us to be in a hurry. Qiao Nianxi stopped Zhihua at the exit, and his face was still calm and indifferent.
Zhihua twisted his brows and thought about it, but he still didn't understand, but Qiao Nianxi said no, naturally she had a reason, and if she didn't understand, she didn't want to.
Here, Qiao Nianxi speculated on Chun's mother's thoughts, and Chun's mother, who had just exited, went to her room and immediately closed the door.
Holding that important thing in her hand, Mother Chun still had fine sweat on her forehead, and not long after she sat down, she subconsciously glanced at the door to make sure that no one was following, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Why did you just get involved in such a thing? If the third lady was weaker, it would be easy to do, but ......"
Mother Chun sighed, her brows furrowed, and her face was gloomy.
These days, she has been repeatedly cheated here in Qiao Nianxi, and the Lin family has already punished her once, thinking of that cruel method, she shuddered, and her hands couldn't help but clench.
Throughout the night, Mother Chun was observing Qiao Nianxi from time to time, seeing that she was no different from usual, and her hanging heart also fell slightly.
Qiao Nianxi went to bed early, but she didn't fall asleep, one leg propped up on the bed, the other leg rested on the propped leg, her eyes staring at the top of the bed, and her mind quickly replayed the scene after coming back in the past few days.
I always feel that there is something else in this family, but it is just a feeling, and I can't say clearly.
Just thinking about it, Qiao Nianxi's face froze, and he glanced at a shadow flashing outside the door, put his legs back in an instant, and pulled the quilt to lie down.
Sure enough, the day did not succeed, and the man moved to the middle of the night!
"Third Miss, have you slept?" Unsurprisingly, it was Chun's mother's voice.
Qiao Nianxi turned over and looked inside, but there was no answer, but there was a small mirror in his hand, which was the kind of small mirror that he could usually hold in his hand, not big or small, just enough to hold and not be discovered.
Seeing that no one responded inside, Chun's mother used her hand hard, only to hear a squeak, and the door was pushed open.
Mother Chun came in with her feet up, still holding a bowl of things in her hand, and quietly walked to the table in front of Qiao Nianxi, and put the bowl of things on the table lightly.
"Third Miss, today you said that you were upset, and the slave maid boiled you a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup. ”
Mother Chun still suppressed her voice and said, seeing that the person on the bed still did not move, a cold light flashed in her eyes, and she took a few steps forward to Qiao Nianxi.
Seeing Chun's mother walking towards her from the small mirror, Qiao Nianxi put the small mirror under the pillow with her backhand.
When she arrived at Qiao Nianxi, Mother Chun stretched out her hand and shook her hand in front of her, seeing that her eyelids didn't jump at all, she was sure that she was really asleep.
The corners of her lips hooked up with a sneer, Mother Chun reached out and took out a small tube that she couldn't name from her pocket, reached out and took Qiao Nianxi's hand, and pointed the contents of the tube on Qiao Nianxi's index finger.
A very small point, if you don't check it carefully, you can't find it at all!
After a moment of coolness, Qiao Nianxi could no longer feel anything abnormal in her hands, she wanted to see what changes in her hands now, but she couldn't see it now, so she could only endure it.
Seeing that Qiao Nianxi still hadn't woken up, Mother Chun took back her things and stood up, and walked outside with the things she had just brought in, tiptoed outside with her things, and then stood in front of a cabinet without moving, as if she was making a choice.
Qiao Nianxi reached out and took out the small mirror again, found the right direction, and her eyes fell on the mirror again, and she was wondering what she was going to do, but she seemed to have finally made a decision, reached out and took out something, and carefully hid it in the most hidden drawer in the back.
The moment she closed the drawer, Mother Chun reached out and wiped her forehead, as if relieved, glanced in the direction of Qiao Nianxi, and saw that she was still asleep, so she tiptoed up the bowl and walked out.
Looking at the bloated figure leaving from the small mirror, Qiao Nianxi got up, lifted the quilt and got out of bed, smeared and found another flashlight hidden, and went directly to the outer room.
Qiao Nianxi walked straight to the place where Chun's mother was standing just now, stretched out her hand to open the drawer, and inside was a small brocade box, holding it in her hand, a faint fragrance wafted out of it, a familiar taste, which made her eyebrows winch, and reached out to open the brocade box.
The brocade box is a round brown piece, the size of the palm just enough to hold, and the whole body exudes fragrance, especially in the art room that has just opened the brocade box, the fragrance comes directly to the nose, rich and long.
It's a piece of rhino horn!
This thing exudes an evil spirituality, it has been a taboo thing since ancient times, but the things that have always been taboo are of great value, in modern times, the fanged special forces in Qiao Nianxi's hand helped the police solve a case of reselling rhino horn incense, she knew this thing.
Legend has it that this rhino horn incense is a product of special processing of the horn called Tongtian rhinoceros, not an ordinary rhinoceros horn, according to ancient books, there is a rhinoceros named Tongtian rhinoceros, which has a white elephant thread that runs through the head and tail, and is regarded as a kind of supernatural thing, so it is called the spirit rhino.
According to legend, this rhino horn incense can make people see ghosts when it is lit, and people usually burn rhino horn incense to summon spirits!
When she saw this rhino horn incense, Qiao Nianxi instantly understood Lin's intentions, hooked the corners of her lips, and put the brocade box back in its original place, but the piece of rhino horn incense was transferred to another place.
Lying back on the bed, Qiao Nianxi carefully recalled the events of the past two days, plus the words that Ye Xuanling came to remind him in the middle of the night before, and soon understood.
"Since you moved my fingers, then I can only remove one of your arms!"
Qiao Nianxi stretched out her index finger, which had been painted by Chun's mother just now, and shook it in front of her eyes, and a chill appeared on her lips.
Following.
The first rays of sunlight in the morning shone on Qiao Nianxi's face, and the beating particles in the dust were like elves, lively and smart.
However, the early autumn sun still had a bit of intensity, and he couldn't adapt to the strong light, Qiao Nianxi frowned, and subconsciously reached out to block it.
"Third Miss, it's time to get up!"
The sound of Mother Chun coming over and calling came from outside the door, no different from usual.
Qiao Nianxi's arm moved, and his arm moved away from his eyes, gradually accepting the strong sunlight.
"Come in!"
While speaking, Qiao Nianxi reached out and lifted the quilt and got out of bed, as lazy as usual in the morning, without any abnormality.
The old lady said that she didn't need to learn the rules today, so she asked the ladies to pack up and go to Changchun Garden. ”
Mother Chun just received the letter this morning, and after saying a word, she seemed to look at Qiao Nianxi with some nervousness.
Changchun Garden is the most yin courtyard of the Hou Mansion, although the yard is large, but after all, the terrain is not good, no one wants to live, over the years, it has almost become an idle empty yard.
Qiao Nianxi sat in front of the bronze mirror and looked at the expression on her face, as if she asked casually, "Do you know what the reason is?"
Mother Chun's hand paused for a moment and replied, "I heard that it was to pray for the blessings of the children of the Hou Mansion, and I specially invited a Taoist with high mana to do it. ”
Mother Chun didn't dare to say that it was to exorcise evil spirits, so she made a detour, after all, there was something in her heart, and it was empty.
"Oh!"
Qiao Nian responded, her face was still so calm, without the slightest change, but the more she was like this, the more the drum in Mother Chun's heart beat tighter.
Packed up, Qiao Nianxi took Chun's mother and Zhihua with her for the first time this time, and the three of them walked back and forth along the way, their faces were calm and indifferent, but what they thought in their hearts was very different.
