Chapter 160: Dream Back
Although Chu is not as vast as Qi State, it has a unique position, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is why other countries have never dared to fight the idea of Chu State.
Ling Xiaoxiao has been in Chu Country for more than a month, and Na Wei rented a house in the town, and then settled her, she almost disappeared, she went out early and returned late, and she didn't know what she was busy with.
"Xiaoxiao, why are you listless?" The aunt who asked the question was taken care of by Na Wei Gu, and she usually called her Aunt Zhang.
"Aunt Zhang, do you know where Laby went?"
Aunt Zhang thought for a while, and then replied: "I seem to have seen her when I got up in the morning, she seems to have gone out, and she hasn't come back yet." β
She knew that it had been like this for days in a row.
"But something strange seems to have happened lately." Aunt Zhang suddenly thought of something and said: "One night I went out to the thatched house, and I heard that there seemed to be someone in Laby's house, but when I looked closely, I found that there was no movement in the house, at first I thought it was haunted, and I didn't know if it was a real ghost or a fake ghost, but I was timid, and I didn't confirm it." β
"You said there's someone in Laby's house?" Ling Xiaoxiao pondered this sentence, this was the first time she had heard it, and during this time, just after dinner, she disappeared, if there was really someone in her house, could it be the old man she said brought her to meet?
"Xiaoxiao, I'm just guessing, after all, it's all a girl's family, it's not good to spread this, and it's also my broken mouth, you just don't think I said these words." Aunt Zhang patted her mouth lightly and said.
Ling Xiaoxiao also smiled and said with relief: "It's okay, Aunt Zhang, I don't think I heard these words, don't worry." β
Hearing this, Aunt Zhang was relieved and said, "Then I'll go and get busy first." β
"Uh-huh." Ling Xiaoxiao nodded, but a gleam flashed in her eyes, since this old man didn't come to see me, I would go to see this old man, otherwise her purpose for coming to Chu Country would be gone.
At night, Ling Xiaoxiao gently opened the door of her room, and then crept out, and after a while, she came to Laby's room, only to see that her room was bright, but from the reflection of the window, there was movement in the room.
It seems that Aunt Zhang didn't talk nonsense, Ling Xiaoxiao put her ears close to the window, quietly listening to the sound inside, a burst of conversation came into her ears, when she heard this voice, Ling Xiaoxiao was a little stunned, and gently opened a gap in the window without confidence, and explored the environment in the house from that gap.
But before she could see what she wanted to see, the window was opened by the people inside.
Ling Xiaoxiao stared at Laby above, and smiled awkwardly, "What a coincidence, Laby." β
Laby reluctantly replied, "It's a coincidence that you're talking to me outside my house." β
At this time, Ling Xiaoxiao knew that she couldn't pretend anymore, so she stood up, looked directly at her and said, "Laby, who is the person in the house?" β
Laby was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Xiaoxiao, are you sleeping, where is there anyone in my house." In order to prove that there was no one in the house, Laby also turned sideways so that the situation in the house could be seen in front of her.
Ling Xiaoxiao stared at Laby's expression closely, trying to find a clue from it, but her expression did not change.
"Or maybe I misheard." Ling Xiaoxiao replied with a smile, then looked up at the sky, "It's not early, I'm going to go to bed, you can sleep too, I won't bother you." β
Seeing her turn to leave, Laby still stared at her with some uneasiness, until she didn't see Ling Xiaoxiao's figure, and then Laby closed the window, and at this time, a figure walked out from behind the pillar in the house.
Laby said worriedly, "Master, I think Xiaoxiao should have heard the conversation in my house, do you need to kill her-"
"Don't-" Before Laby could finish her words, the man in black interrupted her, perhaps thinking that his attitude was a little too obvious, the man in black coughed lightly twice, and then said: "It's an extraordinary time, don't do anything superfluous, and our conversation just now doesn't involve confidentiality, so be it." β
"Yes." Regarding her master's attitude, Laby obviously felt that something was wrong, and she had a lot of questions in her heart, but she still swallowed them into her stomach.
"What's going on with her lately?"
For her in the master's mouth, Laby knew who she was referring to, since Honghui handed over the person to her, she fought all the way to protect her, here, she also secretly arranged guards to guard here, but she didn't understand why the master had to take care of a person so specially, this was something she had never seen before.
"She's fine, it's just the master, and there is something that her subordinates don't understand." Laby finally asked.
"Sayβ"
"The subordinates just wonder why they are so special to her, and who is she the master?" And at the risk of letting the queen find out, he brought people to the country of Chu at this time.
There was silence in the room, and the man in black did not immediately answer her words, but the trace of tenderness that flashed on his face did not escape Laby's eyes, and for a moment, Laby seemed to understand everything.
"You just need to take good care of her and report the situation as soon as possible." After a long time, the man in black spoke.
Laby didn't continue to ask, she knew everything well, and although she felt a little strange in her heart, she immediately replied, "Yes." β
When she was the only one left in the room, she seemed to have been drained of her strength, and sat down on the edge of the bed, staring blankly ahead, for a long timeβ
The next day, there was a knock on the door.
Laby opened the door and saw Aunt Zhang standing at the door with an anxious face.
"What's wrong, Aunt Zhang?" Laby looked at the panting Aunt Zhang and asked suspiciously.
"I, you" ran too quickly, Aunt Zhang didn't regain her breath, she exhaled twice, and then Aunt Zhang said slowly: "It's Xiaoxiao, she seems to be unwell." β
Hearing this, Laby hurriedly walked past Aunt Zhang and walked straight to Ling Xiaoxiao's room, and when she saw Ling Xiaoxiao lying on the bed with her eyes closed and a pale face, Laby felt uneasy.
"Tiny, littleβ" Laby called softly.
Ling Xiaoxiao slowly opened her eyes, and when she saw someone coming, she opened her mouth, but a hoarse voice came out of her throat, "Labyβ"
Seeing this, Laby reached out to her forehead, then moved to her neck, the hot touch made her frown.
"Aunt Zhang, you go to the town and ask a doctor to come over." Laby instructed Aunt Zhang on the side.
"Yes, I'll go." After receiving the order, Aunt Zhang immediately took action.
Laby walked out of the room on her own, and after a while, she had a washbasin in her hand. Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Marry a Thief and Be a Lady's Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
