Chapter 7: Escape (1)

It was night, and the boat was still moving slowly and steadily on the canal, the setting sun lengthened the shadows of the willow trees on the bank, and the shadow hung a crescent moon in the eastern sky. The water was much quieter, the sound of cicadas could be heard on the shore, and the boat had already sailed into a relatively narrow section of the canal.

Tang Xiaotang held the sleeping medicine bottle that Xiaocui asked for from Wang's mother, looked at the scenery on the shore, and secretly made up his mind that he would act tonight!

"Miss, let's have tea." Xiaocui put a pot of new tea on the table and beckoned Tang Xiaotang to sit down.

Tang Xiaotang looked at Xiaocui, this girl came to her side this day, and she did her best without slacking off. With Xiaocui by his side, he didn't have the panic of the first reincarnation, and he was a little dependent on Xiaocui for no reason, probably because the original owner of the body was closer to Xiaocui before his death.

In the memory of the original owner, Xiaocui was by Tang Haitang's side when she was very young, and the master and servant studied female red and poetry together.

Tang Xiaotang was secretly glad that thanks to Xiaocui's literacy, otherwise he wouldn't know how to communicate with Xiaocui.

Xiaocui stood behind the owner Tang Haitang, holding a fan in her hand, and played a cool breeze for the young lady one by one, she was used to worrying about everything for her young lady, this time the young lady got married, in Xiao Cui's heart, she felt that the young lady was forced to be wronged. We all know that the eldest son of the Ma family is a general, but the general is a martial artist, and the martial artists are rough people, and I don't know if I will feel sorry for my young lady. I heard that being a general will often be absent from the house, and in the career of being a general, won't my own lady often have to stay alone in the empty room?

"Alas......" Thinking of this, Xiao Cui couldn't help but sigh.

Tang Xiaotang, who was planning an escape plan in his heart, heard Xiao Cui's sigh, came back to his senses, and turned to look at Xiao Cui with questions in his eyes.

Xiao Cui saw the question in Miss's eyes, and hurriedly explained: "I'm just sorry for Miss, I married into the Ma family, and I don't know if I'm happy or unhappy, General Ma is often not in the mansion, Miss, don't you often have to stay alone in the empty boudoir, it's better for us to live a leisurely life in the Tang Mansion." ”

Listening to Xiaocui's words, Tang Xiaotang was overjoyed. Hurriedly stood with his fingers on the cup of tea and wrote it on the table.

[Let's run!] 】

"Run!" Xiao Cui couldn't help but exclaim when she saw that the most had been given the word escape.

Seeing her exclaim, Tang Xiaotang hurriedly got up to cover Xiaocui's mouth, and looked at the cabin door uneasily, for fear that the sound would attract the attention of outsiders.

Xiaocui looked at Tang Xiaotang uneasily, and soon she regained her mood, nodded at Tang Xiaotang, and signaled that the master would not shout. Tang Xiaotang also nodded to her, let go of the hand holding Xiao Cui, and then used the index finger of his right hand to make a boo gesture on his mouth, signaling Xiao Cui to make a small noise.

Xiaocui also shrunk her back, learning Tang Xiaotang's movements with one of her hands, and booed to "Well, shh...... Quiet"

Tang Xiaotang saw that the action she learned from herself was a little funny, she couldn't help but smile, nodded and asked Xiaocui's sleeve to sit down on the round stool next to her, and the master and servant quietly wrote on the table, planning how to escape......

The willow tops on the moon, late at night, most of the boatmen and accompanying family members on the painting boat have fallen asleep, Wang's mother is still guarding the door of the cabin of the little lady of the Tang family, and she can't relax for a day if she doesn't send people to Mafu safely, she can't relax for a day, it can be said that she can't sleep and eat in the past two days, especially her niece's plan, which makes her heart even more tormented, and people have become a lot haggard.

There was a creak, a creak, and the door to the cabin opened.

Mother Wang, who was already lying on the deck outside the hatch, immediately looked up at the hatch, and the pink embroidered shoes stepped out of the hatch, and Mother Wang quickly turned over and did it.

"Oops...... It's so late, does the little lady of the Tang family have any orders? Mother Wang got up and hurriedly asked Xiaocui who came out.

"Mother Wang, slow down." Xiaocui was holding a cup of tea in one hand, and when she saw Wang's mother getting up with a little difficulty, she hurriedly beckoned Wang's mother to slow down, and at the same time walked a few steps quickly to meet her, bending down and supporting Wang's mother with her free hand.

"Thank you Mother Wang for the medicine for sleeping, my young lady has fallen asleep, I see that Mother Wang has been guarding the door, I'm afraid I'm tired, this is not that there are some refreshments in the room, I will give you some old serving, thanks to your care along the way, my young lady has suffered less." Xiao Cui helped Wang's mother up and respectfully brought the teacup in her hand to Wang's mother.

"Oh, don't dare to be this, don't dare to be, the little lady is really polite, this is an old woman's errand that I should share!" Mrs. Wang heard that Xiaocui was here to bring food to herself, and immediately was very grateful, thinking about the bumps and fatigue of the cars, horses, boats and boats in the past two days, and she had to keep vigil on the deck every night and missed sleeping on the bed for a night.

"Mother Wang, isn't your cushion soft enough? Miss asked me to give you the mattress from the inside, and I'll bring it to you later. As she spoke, she turned around and went back to the cabin to get the mattress.

"Alas, no, no!" I heard that I had to put on my own mattress, and Wang's mother was even more grateful.

Soon Xiaocui came out with a mat, and Wang's mother hurriedly stretched out her hand to stop her, but Xiaocui insisted on putting a mat on her

"Mother Wang, when you are old, you can't stand the cold, my young lady feels sorry for you, you can bear it, if you have other needs, just tell me."

Xiaocui was busy rearranging the mat for Wang's mother, and Wang's mother stood aside, feeling even more guilty, thinking that her niece didn't have this heart for herself, she couldn't help but sigh coldly in her heart.

"Okay, Mother Wang, try it quickly and see if it's soft enough." Xiaocui laid out the floor, patted the mat, and asked Wang's mother to try it.

"Hey, good, good!" Wang's mother was so excited that she said yes with a winning streak.

"Thank you for the little lady of the Tang family for this kindness, and thank you Xiaocui!" Sitting on the newly laid mat, Wang's mother stroked the mat with both hands, and she didn't know how to thank her, but she kept thanking Xiaocui.

"Mother Wang, don't thank you, Miss has always been so good to our servants, especially Mother Wang, you are still the aunt of my eldest and youngest grandmother, and my young lady is also considered to be in-laws, Miss feels sorry for you, then it should be shared, don't be so polite." Xiao Cui hurriedly comforted Wang's mother and asked her not to be so polite.

When Xiaocui mentioned her own niece, the smile on the face of Mrs. Wang, who was still grinning with satisfaction, immediately disappeared.
