Chapter 290: The Old Woman (Part I)
In a small town far away from Faronqia, Ye Zhen looked at the dilapidated house and frowned, the thatched house in front of him could be blown down at any time in the wind.
A woman lay dying on the straw in the room, surrounded by dust and some pests, and the smell in the room was not very pungent because of the ventilation in the room.
Ye Zhen looked at the woman on the ground coldly, the old woman found Ye Zhen, but at this time she was hungry and had no strength at all, and it was a laborious thing to even turn sideways and look at the person.
She hadn't eaten for five days, and the last time she ate was half a steamed bun given to her by a kind little beggar. Thinking of the half steamed bun, the old woman swallowed another mouthful of saliva.
Two steamed buns appeared in Ye Zhen's hands, and they were still steaming, and the aroma of special steamed buns fled in all directions, and finally got into the old woman's nose.
"Ahem...... the old woman choked on a mouthful of saliva excitedly, and turned around without knowing where the strength came from, looking around, looking for the bun. Then a pair of eyes fixed on Ye Zhen's hand, and his body pounced directly.
Ye Zhen didn't make things difficult for the old woman, but watched her gobble up three or two bites and eat two buns into her stomach.
The old woman took a break and said tremblingly, "It's still ...... Anything else? ”
Ye Zhen took out two more buns from the space ring and said, "Yes, but after these two are eaten, you have to answer me a few questions." ”
The old woman nodded hurriedly, snatching the two buns from Ye Zhen's hands and eating them.
This time, the old woman did not gobble it again, but chewed it slowly, as if feeling the taste of the bun little by little. In a few moments, the old woman burst into tears, wiping her tears and chewing slowly.
Ye Zhen was not in a hurry, but he couldn't stand the old woman's tears, frowned, and turned around.
After a while, the old woman walked out from behind Ye Zhen, "I, I'm done." ”
Ye Zhen watched as she hid the remaining bun around her waist and bulged out a big bun.
When the old woman saw Ye Zhen looking at her, she knew that the bun she was = hidden was discovered, so she hurriedly covered it and said, "You gave it to me, I can't go back." ”
Ye Zhen said helplessly: "Don't, you can do whatever you like." Next, I will ask you a few questions, and you will answer them truthfully. ”
The old woman nodded, "I will tell you everything I know, but can you have any more pity on me and reward me with a few silver coins." ”
Ye Zhen said: "These are not problems. Let me ask you, did you work in Zhufu two years ago? ”
Hearing Ye Zhen say so firmly, the old woman glanced at Ye Zhen, hesitated for a moment and nodded. "That's right, I will be a maid for the old woman of the Zhu Mansion and serve her old man's daily life."
"Then you should know about the destruction of the Zhu family two years ago, how did you survive?"
The old woman fell into memory. "That night, as usual, I went to the backyard to pour dirty water after washing the old woman. As a result, I heard crying in the front courtyard, and after a while, someone killed in the backyard, and I took advantage of the chaos to crawl out of the dog hole, because of the status of a slave, I couldn't make money, and no one was willing to buy me back when I was old, so I begged all the way, and my wife and son were also blessed to live until now. ”
Ye Zhen said: "Then do you know who the person who came in and killed you that day?" ”
The old woman shook her head, "It was at night, and in the panic, I didn't notice it at all." "Take a hundred plating" The latest chapter of "The World Has a Strange Fragrance Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
