Chapter 24: Thoughts
The leading mother-in-law saw that Chun Tao was disheveled, how could she not understand what was going on, and ordered the three stout mothers-in-law behind her to drag Chun Tao and Wu Ming from the ground and tie them up.
Huaxi leaned her back against the rock, her face tired, and Hongliu walked over to hug her. Huaxi leaned on Hongliu's arms, and Chunying also walked to Huaxi to block the wind.
"Miss Huaxi, what do you think these two minions should be done?" The leading mother-in-law asked Huaxi carelessly, although she took someone, she had no plans in her heart. After all, Chun Tao came out of the big house, and now the big grandmother is in charge, and she directly tied people up, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the big grandmother. She doesn't want to do this kind of offending thing.
Hongliu glared at the mother-in-law and shouted: "Mrs. Zhang is so ignorant, my girl has not yet left the cabinet." Since you are in charge of the night watch, why do you come to my girl about such a thing? ”
Mrs. Zhang was hit by the red willow, and her face was slightly pale, "This, it's not because Chun Tao is a person in the girl's room......"
Hongliu was annoyed, and without waiting for Mrs. Zhang to finish speaking, she said: "There is an old lady in the house, and a grandmother is in charge of the feed, when will it be my girl's turn to deal with it?" Not all matters big and small have to be reported to the grandmother. said that Chun Tao was the person in the girl's room, even if she wasn't, she should report it to the grandmother first if something like this happened. ”
Hua Xiqing coughed, interrupted the two, and said softly: "Mother Zhang, it's getting late, and it's not good to make a family upset about this matter." It's better to lock up these two minions first and send someone to watch over them. Wait for the grandmother to deal with it tomorrow. But the matter has already happened, so I have to inform the old lady. Later, I asked Hongliu to go back to the old lady. The eldest grandmother asked Zhang's mother to report it. What do you think? ”
What Huaxi meant by this was that it was all handed over to the big house for disposal, and Mrs. Zhang got the word, and she had a bottom in her heart, and she didn't bother anymore, and asked someone to escort the two of them away.
Chun Tao's whole person was already in a trance, and she woke up when she was pulled away, looking at Hongliu and Chunying guarding Huaxi left and right, her eyes flashed fiercely, and she wanted to break away from the person holding her, and shouted: "Hongliu, Chunying, why do you want to calculate me?" What about cloves? Why not cloves? Girl, I was wronged, wronged! It's Hongliu and Chunying...... I want to see the old lady, I want to see the grandmother, I want to avenge ......"
"Don't hurry up and gag her mouth yet!" Mrs. Zhang heard some clues, and hurriedly shouted for fear that things would get bigger.
The mother-in-law next to her hurriedly untied the sweat towel from her waist and tied Chun Tao's mouth, and by the way, even Wu Ming's mouth was blocked.
Chun Tao struggled vigorously and did not stop for a moment.
Huaxi pushed away the red willow and slowly walked in front of Chun Tao in the surprised eyes of everyone.
Chun Tao watched Huaxi walk over step by step, and the pair of brown pupils that looked at her in the firelight were dyed golden, seductive, and her red lips hooked up a very beautiful arc, with a bit of bewitchment.
With her heart pounding, Chun Tao forgot to struggle, and subconsciously retreated, but was stopped by the mother-in-law behind her.
Huaxi approached Chun Tao with a smile, stopped three steps away, and waved at her.
Chun Tao paused, hesitated for a moment, and finally walked to Huaxi.
Huaxi leaned into her ear and whispered, "I don't bother to take care of the small movements you usually make behind your back, but you shouldn't touch the cloves." What do you think if your grandmother knew you were stepping on two boats? Will your son, mother, and brothers and sisters stay in the house in peace? Some things are not necessarily bad, for the sake of you waiting for me for more than two months, I will let you live......"
Chun Tao froze, and stopped shouting in a daze.
Huaxi turned her head with a sad face, and said to Zhang's mother again: "Mom, take it away, it's always a master and servant, I will persuade her a few words." ”
Mrs. Zhang didn't know what Huaxi said, but when she saw that Chun Tao was quiet, she was secretly puzzled, but she didn't dare to ask more because she was worried about eating again, so she left with Wu Ming.
As soon as the person left, Huaxi almost fell to the ground without strength, but fortunately, Hongliu and Chunying held it in time.
The two helped Huaxi back to Qixia Garden.
As soon as Huaxi entered the house, he told Hongliu to go to the Lotus Courtyard, and asked Chunying to find Liu's mother and Lilac, and tell the two of them about tonight's events.
Mother Liu frowned, and said, "Girl, you are too reckless, in case there is a good one, how can it be good?" Well, rest in peace, and leave the rest of the yard to the slaves. ”
Lilac was already sobbing and crying, muttering all the time, "It's all my fault, it's all my ......"
"Lilac-" Liu's mother drank the cloves, "If something happens, you will know that crying and crying will block the girl, it is better to reflect on it with this effort, and next time don't fall into other people's traps and drag the girl down." ”
"I, I...... Saved. Cloves will never be like this again in the future! Lilac wiped the corners of her eyes indiscriminately, knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Huaxi heavily, "Lilac won't drag the girl's hind legs anymore!" The girl has three times and twice to prevent disasters for the slave and maid, and the life of the slave and maid will be the girl's in the future. ”
"Get up, it's too heavy, I don't blame you!" Huaxi stroked her forehead and glanced at Liu's mother.
Liu's mother understood, "Lilac get up, there are still a lot of things to deal with in the future, you come with me and learn more." I'm old, I can't stay with the girl for a few years, and I have to rely on you in the future. I just came back and was busy, although I told you a lot, but I didn't care about training you well, and your temperament should also change. ”
After hearing this, Lilac kowtowed to Huaxi again, "Lilac swears to stay by the girl's side for the rest of her life, protect you, and serve you for the rest of your life." After saying that, she got up from the ground, clenched her fists, and silently retreated behind Liu's mother.
"Go ahead, let Chunying prepare bath water for me, I'll crook it on the couch."
Liu's mother withdrew with Lilac, and Huaxi took a breath, took off her shoes and sat on the couch, holding her curled legs with her arms, her head buried in the sockets of her legs, lazily not wanting to move.
After a while, she raised her head again and looked at the moonless sky outside the window, the corners of her eyes were a little moist.
A little orphan girl is also worth such a lot of trouble? It's not the old lady's words that make me a hot potato. The big room and the third room are obviously unwilling to take them in, and the second room is willing to repay the favor, but I am afraid that the old lady will not agree. It seems that in this life, family affection is a luxury.
Saving Lilac by yourself is not saving yourself, saving your reputation, keeping your friendship for many years, and saving someone who can help you with all her heart.
Fame, Origin...... In this world, sometimes life is more important than life.
Tired, really tired!
People are always selfish, and since they live again, they can't go back the old way. In order to live better, we will not do less things that harm others and benefit ourselves. She is not a saint, and her small actions can be tolerated, but if she wants to hurt the people around her to hurt her at all, she will not sit still.
I wonder how many people won't be able to sleep well tonight?
Now you can't hide and pretend to be an ostrich, if you don't fall into the hole, others will calculate on your head. Rather than this, it is better to show your attitude and put yourself in the right position as soon as possible.
Huaxi wiped away her tears and sneered lowly, her eyes blank and clear.
