Chapter 31: The Dark Side Everywhere
After saying this, Xiao Tao could easily hear the anger in the door, accompanied by the sound of ping-pong slamming the door, she just smiled proudly: "Xiaorou, be light, the things in Miss Six's yard are not strong, if they are damaged, they will have to be compensated."
And we are all people in Miss Six's yard now, so naturally we have to listen to Miss Six's arrangement, Xiao Tao is just a rough girl now, so naturally I can't disobey Miss's orders, you, just sleep here for one night. ”
When Xiao Rou heard this, she was immediately angry: "Xiao Tao, you can't be like this, you are the same as me, but you are all people in the eldest lady's yard, and you want to do things for the eldest lady, how can you treat me like this?" What benefits did Miss Six give you? Makes you betray the eldest lady so much? If you do this, I will definitely tell the eldest lady. ”
When Xiao Tao heard this, she suddenly snorted coldly: "You still think you are a girl in the yard of the eldest lady?" Don't give me the posture of your second-class girl, even if our status is high, we can't be as high as Miss.
Since the eldest lady asked us to come to this courtyard, that is the person in this courtyard, Xiaocui is a first-class girl in this courtyard, do you think you can compete with her? against her, what good fruit do you eat?
Moreover, if you offend the big girl here, can you still have a chance to get close to Miss Six? Can you still get the trust of Miss Six? If you can't be trusted, can you know about them? What good news can you bring to the eldest lady?
Xiaorou, people! If you daydream, you have to look at the time, don't lower your status and be a man, and still want to be arrogant and domineering all day long? Wake up! You offended Sister Xiaocui when you came over today, what do you think you are of use to the eldest lady now? Hehe, stupid idiot.
When my aunt sent you back, she told me that I would do everything I could to gain the trust of Miss Six, and then I could do a better job for Miss Six, but you, don't you understand? But what about the eldest lady's gift to the sixth lady.
So you, just be obedient, otherwise, if you don't wait for Miss Six to do it, the eldest lady will let you taste the bitter fruit in order to make less trouble. ”
After speaking, Peaches was silent, and Xiao Rou sat on the floor alone, listening to Xiao Tao's footsteps walking away, her face full of horror.
At this time, Jian Yue had already changed into the clothes that had been prepared, and Xiaocui and the two left the courtyard and headed in the direction of the kitchen.
The kitchen is not very far from their yard, because the people of Qiufu are pampered, and they can't stand the slightest smell of oily smoke, so this kitchen was sent to a remote place, and the place where she lives happens to be the courtyard on the left side of the kitchen, although it is not small, and the scenery is not bad, but it was abandoned by the nobles of Qiufu because of the smell of oily smoke.
The kitchen lights were also out at this time, and there were only two mothers-in-law who were keeping vigil, and when Jianyue and Xiaocui arrived, they saw a small thin boy walking towards them outside the kitchen door.
When he arrived, the boy whispered, "Miss." ”
"Well, Xiao Wu, thank you for your hard work."
Jian Yue said, looked left and right, and took the two of them to find a hidden place.
"Tell me, what's going on here? How is my mother doing? ”
Jianyue asked a little eagerly, she was eager to know the current situation of her mother, after leaving for five years, she tried her best to finally insert Xiao Cui's younger brother Xiao Wu into the Qiu Mansion with strict servant selection, and now it has been more than two years, because the Qiu Mansion is strict, she has never contacted Xiao Wu, and now she has entered the Qiu Mansion, which makes her a little impatient.
Xiao Wu heard this, and said directly: "Please punish Miss, Xiao Wu is useless, I don't know what Mrs. looks like now." ”
”
Jian Yue was stunned and looked at the young man, Xiao Cui was also a little anxious: "Xiao Wu, what did you say?" What does that mean exactly? What's wrong with Madame? You've said it, you're going to kill me and Miss in a hurry! ”
"Emily."
Jianyue glared at Xiao Cui helplessly, and then looked at the young man and said, "Xiao Wu, you keep talking, say it slowly, don't worry, say it carefully." ”
Xiao Wu then said: "Yes, I have been staring at the cellar since I came in, at first because I was young, I couldn't do heavy work, and the good errands in front of me were also because no one could get them, so the matter of guarding the cellar and delivering food to Mrs. fell on me."
It's just that I didn't dare to talk to my wife, they watched too strictly, and every time I went down, I could only put the food far away on the ground, and when I went out, someone would go over to pick it up. Moreover, if I look at it more with curiosity, I will be reprimanded, and those people seem to be carrying swords, which is not easy to mess with. ”
Jianyue nodded: "There are indeed people guarding there, and the kung fu is not weak, you are a small All those people didn't do anything to you, if it was someone else, take a look at it, I'm afraid that my head will fall to the ground." ”
In the last life, she lived in the cellar for fifteen years, a whole fifteen years, and the people who guarded them listened to them all in her ears from the beginning of the unsmiling to the final gaffe, she was speechless, she didn't understand the world, these people didn't deliberately hide it, blocked her face, said those obscene words, and even vented her resentment because she had to stay in this dark place all the year round.
At that time, not only vegetable soup and other things, but even urine she had experienced, at that time she didn't understand, and she didn't understand, just a little bit, she understood that she was a person who didn't get like a person.
She remembered for a long time, perhaps because she was oppressed by her mind at a very young age, so from the time she was able to stand up on her own, she remembered everything, and she remembered even more, the heads that were cut off from her eyes, the frightened faces.
"What Miss said is that those people did want to kill me, but they were restrained by the lady inside at that time."
Xiao Wu said, thinking about the scene at that time, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He continued: "Madame seems to be locked in a big cage, and there is a black cloth on top of the cage, what is it like inside, Xiao Wu didn't see it, but suddenly heard crazy laughter in the cage, and scolded Master Qiu's name, and those people ran over to surround Madame, and I hurried out."
Since then, I didn't dare to look up, just listened with my ears, those people didn't seem to move Mrs., Xiao Wu always listened to them scolding and scolding, I couldn't understand it, and I was always crazy, when is this day a head. ”
Jianyue remembered the scene when she first left the cage.
She was also locked in a cage, but when she had a memory, she was locked up alone, at that time, she vaguely remembered that her mother would pitifully beg those people to let her hold the child, and she would suddenly go crazy and cry and shout through the cage to scold her for being a beast, a cheap species.
At that time, she didn't understand, why would her mother, who grew up breastfeeding, scold her?
It's called Mother, because they all say that this woman is her slut.
Anyway, those days were muddy, and she didn't remember much.
Later, because of the mother's exhaustion, their cages were also indulged in distance, and those people were disgusted with the mess of eating and drinking in the cages, so they covered them with black cloths, and from then on, it was really a dark day.
In the days that followed, she listened with only her ears, learned to speak, learned to scold, and learned to dislike and hold grudges.
She hates, why is her mother a lowly madman, why is she not the daughter of the Qiu family.
How ridiculous it is to think about it now.
With a faint smile on her lips, but with a faint coldness, Jianyue asked, "Let's talk about it now!" ”
Xiao Wu nodded, inexplicably feeling that the cold young lady at this time was different from the one he knew four years ago, but he still continued: "A few days ago, about two months ago, Master Qiu suddenly came to the kitchen, went to the cellar, and stayed in the cellar for a long time before coming up, and then went back, and there was a sound of quarrel in the old man's yard at night.
Later, I learned from the mouths of other maids that Mrs. Qiu and Master Qiu were quarreling, as if it was because of our wife, and they fell a lot of things. On the second day, many people went to the cellar, and the guards were tight, and I was not allowed to go down to deliver food, but only to the door.
Later, when the men were gone, I was able to go down to the cellar again, but I never saw the cage in which the lady was kept, nor were the guards. ”
After a pause, Xiao Wu suddenly continued: "I also heard that later Mrs. punished the girl next to her for several days in a row, and almost killed one. ”
Jian Yue knew in her heart that the thing that could make the Sun family angry to the point of scolding the beating people was naturally because of Qiu Zhenzhou's decision to take her back, if it weren't for the fact that this matter involved Qiu Lingfeng, presumably the Sun family would not agree at all.
Xiao Cui listened and asked, "Then don't you deliver food?" ”
Xiao Wu shook his head: "Send it is sent, but it will be handed over to the two guards when it arrives at the door of the cellar, as for me to go down to the cellar, it is because the cellar began to store wine after it was modified. ”
Originally, when she heard that her mother was gone, Jian Yue's hand suddenly tightened, and after listening to Xiao Wu's words, she turned her eyes and asked, "You said, has the cellar been rectified?" ”
Xiao Wu nodded: "Yes, the cellar before was full of disgusting fishy smell, and there were some brown marks, which looked like blood, and the surrounding walls were also dirty and messy, all of them were moss."
But now, there is no smell in it, only the smell of wine, and it has turned into stone all around, and the stone walls are inlaid with torches, and the hall is much brighter. ”
Xiao Cui listened and said worriedly: "Could it be that Madame has been transferred, what can I do?" ”
Jianyue pondered slightly, and then listened to Xiao Wu say: "But if Madame was really taken away, when was she taken away?" There was no news from the house, and I stayed there day and night, and I didn't see anyone being taken out there. ”
