Chapter Ninety-Seven: Deception

"Mother Guo, why are you alone in the house? What did Ziling do? ”

Seeing her come in, Guo's mother hurriedly put down the things in her hand and opened the cotton door curtain for her, poked her head out to look out, raised her chin in the direction of the east wing, and whispered, "I've sent medicine to Miss Wang." ”

Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and her mood became more irritated.

Guo's mother, who was good at observation, saw that she was in a bad mood and couldn't bear to say what was in her heart to block her, but when she walked to the door, she was unwilling to return.

"Madam, Miss Ziling has been a little abnormal lately."

Qingyun, who was leaning on the dark green woven cotton pillow, sneered, "It's not so abnormal, I'm afraid she has forgotten who is her master." ”

These words came to Guo's mother's heart, and after listening to the movement in the yard, she stepped forward and said, "Madame, don't blame me for talking too much, you are too pampered to Miss Ziling on weekdays, that girl can't tell the difference between respect and inferiority, and she has forgotten her duty, there are many things at home these days, but she can hide far away, and she doesn't do her best to take care of you and the little master." ”

"I didn't say these words to arrange her behind her back, but she did really too much, the maid should look like a maid, and she can't do whatever she wants because the master is tolerant."

Qingyun rubbed her sore temples and said softly, "Mother Guo, I understand in my heart, tell her to come back and prepare hot water and serve Doubao to sleep." ”

Seeing that she was extremely tired, Guo's mother had to open her mouth, swallow the rest of the words into her stomach, and turn around to go out.

After a while, Ziling came back with a spring breeze on her face, "Miss, do you sleep when you're just a unitary?" Usually at this time, Doubao has to endorse. Saying that, she couldn't help but tease the spirited Doubao, ignoring that Doubao's body had not fully recovered.

Qingyun raised her head and looked at her coldly, Zi Ling, who was unresponsive, didn't get a response for a long time, and when she looked at Qingyun in surprise, she closed her mouth in hindsight.

"Go get hot water for the little master."

Zi Ling stood there indifferently, a trace of displeasure crossed Qingyun's eyebrows, and her voice was a little colder, "What are you doing in a daze?" ”

"Yes! Miss! "In the end, she was afraid of light clouds, Zi Ling rubbed twice and went to the kitchen behind with the basin of water, and Mother Guo followed closely behind.

"Mother!"

The well-behaved Doubao nest moved in her arms, and the light cloud with her eyes closed and recuperated, "Huh? After a while, I didn't see Doubao having any follow-up.

She opened her eyes and looked at the milky little meat dumplings in her arms, since she weaned him, Qingyun wanted him to be healthy, so she kept drinking goat's milk.

Qingyun knew that Doubao didn't like to drink, so he pinched his nose and poured it down every time, he was afraid that he would be unhappy and insisted on doing it, so every time Qingyun thought about it, he would feel distressed for a long time.

"Mother!" Doubao struggled out of her arms and stretched out her little fat hand to touch her mother's face.

"Mother, uncle!"

Qingyun sighed secretly, counting the days, Lin Xu Ao walked for twenty-two days, and Doubao never said a word in the first few days, and every day when he woke up, he ran to the pheasant and hare cage in the backyard, and chattered with the pheasant and hare for a long time.

Later, a few stubborn pheasants broke their heads and wanted to escape, Doubao was very distressed after seeing it, and after a long time of asking Cheng to help, he put the pheasants back into the mountains, leaving only two rabbits with docile personalities.

Because he was sick, he didn't go to the backyard to feed the rabbits for several days, and somehow he began to talk about Lin Xuao, he didn't say much, sometimes he couldn't say it clearly, and the anxious Guo's mother turned around, but Qingyun knew that he was thinking about Lin Xuao.

"Doubao heard from my mother, now that the road is closed by heavy snow outside, your Uncle Lin is coming, and the snow has to melt. You have to learn to wait slowly, and when you have recovered from your illness and the snow has melted, then Uncle Lin will be able to come back to see you. ”

She smiled bitterly in her heart and comforted Doubao, who didn't care about the world, and didn't dare to imagine that it would hurt Doubao's heart if she couldn't fulfill her promise.

Zi Ling went for a long time before coming in with a bucket of hot water, probably afraid of being scolded by Qingyun, and hurriedly defended herself, "Aunt Hua used up all the hot water, and I re-boiled it." ”

Qingyun nodded, coaxed the sleepy Doubao to change his coat, and wiped his face, hands and feet with a hot cloth.

"Fetch some more water, and I'll wash up too." After being busy all day, Qingyun's body seemed to be falling apart, and Ziling went to the kitchen to carry a bucket of water.

"Send some to the plain girl, too." Qingyun changed into loose and comfortable clothes, rolled up his sleeves and instructed Ziling when he washed his face.

"Oh, Mother Guo took it just now." Zi Ling replied with a little flustered.

Qingyun just glanced at her casually, and Ziling buried her head lower in panic, her fingers constantly intertwined.

After cleaning up, Qingyun asked her to go down to rest, while she was reading on the pillow, and after a while, tiredness came up.

When she first started selling sauce meat, she didn't sleep on three or five days and never felt sleepy, but today it was like being found by a sleepy bug, and gradually her eyes couldn't be opened, so Qingyun had to blow out the candle and get into the bed.

After Guo's mother and Cheng Jun checked the front and back yards, when they returned to the side room where she lived, they found Ziling waiting there.

"Why don't you go to sleep yet? It's my turn to be on duty tonight. Guo's mother looked at her in surprise and asked.

"I know, I'm afraid that my mother will be cold, so I brought my mother some foot washing water."

"Yo, I didn't expect Miss Ziling to still think about me." Guo's mother glanced at the wooden barrel that had been placed on the ground and said with a smile.

"Mother Guo, you can rest early after washing." After Ziling went out, she closed the door casually.

Guo's mother stared at the steaming footwash water in the basin for a long time, Ziling was too weird tonight, she couldn't help but be careful, but after thinking about it for a long time, she couldn't find any mistakes, so she simply didn't think about it, washed her feet and splashed the water bolt to lie down.

The wind was blowing in the night, and it was very strong, and the things in the yard that were not covered and suppressed were clanged by the raging north wind, and with the strong wind came a blizzard that was endless, and the temperature dropped rapidly, and God seemed to want to freeze everything on the earth, and the whole village fell into a deathly silence.

In the east wing, Wang Shuqi's master and servant gathered around and whispered.

"Jin Zhi, are you sure Song Qingyun has slept to death?" Wang Shuqi's voice was a little hoarse, and her wind chill had not been completely cured.

"It's true, I and Silverbranch slammed her window and didn't wake anyone up." Jin Zhi said proudly.

"Miss, don't worry, now God is helping us, you listen to the mountains shaking outside, there is not even the slightest sound of plain clothes, wait for those people to come over in a while, we will leave this damn place." Then Jin Zhi said again.

Wang Shuqi thought about it and made up his mind, Su Yi's conversation with Song Qingyun that night was overheard by Jin Zhi, it turned out that Prince Jing was going to go to the northwest to fight with illness, she immediately made a decision to leave here, but unfortunately she suffered from a cold that night.

In the past few days, Qingyun not only did not ask her for warmth, but even made remarks to squeeze her, and even more inspired her to leave this place, so he asked Jin Zhi to buy Ziling, and added a medicinal noodle that can make people sleepy in the hot water used by Qingyun.
