Chapter 84: Inquiry
"Ah Feng~Ah Feng~"
"Lord Wang, are you awake?"
"Was I beaten up last night?" Jiayi's question pulled Ah Feng directly back to last night, and the helplessness in his heart quickly overflowed to his face.
"Lord Wang, you drank too much last night."
"Drinking too much? How can I drink too much? You know how much I drink~ Even if you really drink too much, you can't be so uncomfortable all over your body, right? Jiayi turned her stiff neck and rubbed her sore shoulders.
"Ah Feng! What's wrong with your face? How can there be bruising? You still say that you weren't beaten! Look at you're all hurt! Tell me the truth, did they attack us while we were drinking? What a despicable villain! Jiazhen is becoming more and more presumptuous now! No matter how much you can't tolerate me, I'm also his brother! How could he do this to me? Jiayi said to herself, not noticing that Ah Feng's face could no longer contain a trace of helplessness.
"Lord Wang! My wounds are from you! ”
"Look! You're finally ......," Jia Yi reacted halfway through.
"Say it again!" Jiayi looked at Ah Feng in a daze.
"Lord Wang! My injury was caused by you accidentally~"
"It's me?"
"That's right! It's you! ”
"How could it be me? How could I hit you? What am I hitting you for? ”
"You are drunk, it is your unintentional move to hurt me~"
"What about my ......"
"It's also your own masterpiece~"
"Why didn't you stop me?" Jiayi complained.
"Lord Wang, I stopped you~ It was because I stopped you that I was injured."
"Okay~" Jiayi was a little annoyed.
"Lord Wang, I'll get you some sobering tea."
"Hmm~" Jiayi's drowsy head dragged him down on the bed again.
"Aunt Yueqing~ What are you busy with?"
"Miss~"
"Ah~ Aunt Yueqing, what are you going to do with so many petals?"
"I see that you haven't been sleeping well lately and are always having nightmares. I~ I'm thinking about making you a soothing pillow. ”
"Aunt Yueqing, you are so good! Thank you! ”
"My eldest lady! What else are you polite to me? Isn't my job to take care of you? ”
"It smells so good~ Isn't it particularly troublesome to do?"
"What's not trouble~ As long as you can sleep peacefully every night, it's fine~"
"Aunt Yueqing, how long have you been in this mansion?"
"What about me~ I am my wife's dowry slave, and I have been in this house for almost twelve years. Time flies so fast~ I have also changed from a little girl to an old girl. ”
"Nonsense~ Aunt Yueqing, you are not old at all~ Did you hear anyone say that you are old?"
"Haha~ This kind of thing, do you still need others to say it? I'm self-aware~"
"Then why don't you get married?"
"I just want to stay by my wife's side and take care of her for the rest of my life." The nerve in Mo Xi's brain that was responsible for recalling was touched by Yueqing's words.
Once, my brother also promised to take care of me for the rest of my life, and we said that we would not be separated. But now?
I'm on the opposite side of my brother, but my brother doesn't know me anymore, it's really a trick~
"Aunt Yueqing, what about the jade meaning? How long has she been in the house? Is she also her mother's dowry slave? Mo Xi finally got to the point.
"She's been in this house for a long time~ I want to think about it~ She came in when Madame was pregnant with you, and it's been eleven years. She is not from Madame's maiden family, it can be said that she was bought back by Madame. ”
"Bought back?"
"That's right! I bought it back~" Yueqing completely stopped the work in her hand and slowly fell into memories.
"I remember it was in January, on a sunny winter afternoon, I accompanied my wife to the street and met Yuyi, who was selling her body to bury her father. When we saw her, there was an old man who looked very bad and wanted to buy her. Although Yuyi was very reluctant, she couldn't help it, because she was in urgent need of money. Madame looked at the tearful Yuyi, kneeling in the cold snow, very distressed. Just as the old man touched Yuyi's little hand and was about to take her up, the lady decided to help her. It took us a lot of effort to make the old man give up his determination to buy jade. At first, Madame simply wanted to fund Yuyi's burial of her father, and did not intend for her to repay herself. But Yuyi insisted on repaying his wife, saying that he wanted to be a cow and horse for his wife for a lifetime. Madame was very reluctant, and Madame considered that it would be very difficult for her to live alone as a girl in the future, so she brought her into the house. In this way, Yuyi has lived in this mansion for so many years. After Yueqing finished speaking, both of them were silent for a moment.
"Aunt Yueqing, you have been living day and night for eleven years, but I don't think you and Yuyi are sisters who get along very well." Yueqing came back to her senses.
"That's because I always feel that Yuyi doesn't open her heart to Madame and me, she always seems to have reservations, and I think she's getting more and more strange!"
"Strange? What a strange method? Yueqing thought hard.
"Strange! Yes~ She makes me feel more and more strange! ”
"When did this strangeness begin?"
"Let me think about it~ It should be that after you were born, she became different."
