Chapter 4 Accidents

Because of the early cold, she listened to the mother-in-law in the courtyard talk about a news early this morning, and she had a bad premonition when she heard it, because every day she came to the young lady, and the lady had already come, and if this person didn't come today, she was upset in her heart.

Yiying was shocked when she heard the little girl say this, and said, "What's the matter, you won't hear anything!"

Chu Han was so frightened that his eyes were blurred and he said: "The slave maid heard that there was a maid in the front yard who said that she found someone in the lotus pond in the back garden last night, and now the housekeeper is sending someone to salvage it!"

"No, it can't be the mother fruit" Yiying hurriedly said, Xia Li's mother is kind by nature, and she is a person who loves her daughter, how can she leave her daughter and jump into the river! It is unlikely that she was framed and pushed forward, after all, she is the second lady, not an ordinary subordinate, and it is impossible for anyone to harm her like this, unless she .......

"Chu Han, go and see, who is that person? By the way, look for the second lady again" Although Yiying couldn't believe that it was the second lady, the worry in her heart expanded little by little.

She just asked someone to kiss her mother for a few days, how could this person be gone like this! That's impossible.

Chu Han ran out with a pale face when he heard this, praying in his heart that the person must not be the second lady, otherwise the young lady would not be able to stand it.

……

Yiying waited for a long time, and this torment felt like she had been training for the same time as waiting for the man to stop, a long and unbearable feeling that she had to endure.

At this time, how she was looking forward to Xia Li's mother being able to suddenly enter the house with a smile and ask her, "Daughter, you slept well last night, how does your body feel?" And so on all the warm and nice words" how she would like to hear such a voice!

But after waiting for so long, no one outside entered the house, and even the first cold did not come back.

The heart was a little cold, Xia Li's mother must have had an accident, otherwise she wouldn't have come back to take care of her daughter for so long.

It was almost afternoon when the first cold returned, and the master and servant didn't feel hungry before they had a drop of water in their morning and lunch, Yiying didn't need to ask anything, just from the girl's expression, you could see the clues, the person in the lotus pond in the big house was none other than Xia Li's mother.

Chu Han came back crying, this girl cried all the way this time, and the crying sound was not small, before she entered the house, Yiying had already guessed the general situation.

Yiying's face is flat, and she can't see how sad she is, because she has been used to not putting sadness on her face since she was a child, only allowing herself to drip blood in her heart, and not allowing herself to shed a single tear, as a killer, the most important thing is coldness, even if your heart is hot, your face must also be cold, because this is the rule of a killer.

"Miss, Miss......" Chu Han cried into the house, and then knelt down in front of Yiying.

Yiying didn't ask anything, just looked out the window with her eyes flat, at this time she was wondering, is it because she has been a mother since she was a child, Xia Li's mother lived a good life, why did she become Xia Li, and her mother died like this.

Could it be that she is really the fate of the lonely star, she can't get anyone's love, and she pays attention to being alone.

"Miss, miss, don't scare me? What's wrong with you, cry when you want to? Now that something has happened to the lady, you can't have three longs and two shorts, or when the master comes back, how will the slave and maid explain to him!"

Yiying's brain cleared up when she heard the word master, she hadn't killed all her relatives yet, she had a father.

Thinking of this: "Can you see clearly...... The people in the lotus pond?"

Chu Han was already frightened by his young lady's calm and self-contained attitude, and said, "Slave maid...... I saw it clearly, woo woo woo...... Be...... Madame......"

Although Yiying had expected this ending, listening carefully to what the maid said at this time, her heart was as heavy as a thousand pounds of stone, and a sad and uncontrollable emotion made her breathless.

He stroked his chest soothingly with his hand, and let this breath come up before continuing: "The first cold comes, help me to take a look"

"Miss, your injury" Chu Han stopped crying in fright, and said cautiously.

"Help me put my clothes on" is nothing to Yiying at all, it's just that she hasn't gotten used to this body in the past few days and doesn't dare to move, and now she can't take care of it so much, her mother went suddenly, she had to go and see.

Chu Han saw that the young lady's face was frightened, and he didn't dare to say more, so he did as instructed.

When the two of them came to the lotus pond in the front yard of the house, they saw people standing in twos and threes in the distance.

When everyone saw her coming, they all turned their heads and consciously gave way to get out of the way.

Yiying wore a white dress, her face was not flushed because of excessive blood loss due to the beating, and at this time, because of Xia Li's mother's death, her face was even paler, her beautiful face, with bloodless skin, coupled with this white dress, made people have a delicate beauty after being sick and weak, and everyone's eyes also looked at it together.

"Look, it's Miss Li's ...... in the second room"

"It's really Miss Away"

"Isn't this child sick? Hey, what a miserable young lady."

"Who said no, my mother is gone when I am so young"

The maids and women who were standing a little farther away whispered loudly, and Yiying was already deaf and clear-sighted, and she could hear it clearly.

The housekeeper Xia Fu coughed lightly when he heard everyone's discussions, "What are you talking nonsense, why don't you all go to work, you can't find out how uncomfortable"

The housekeeper spoke, but everyone dared not listen, and they didn't dare to look at the excitement anymore, so they had to leave in disgrace.

Memory Shadow walked through the crowd to the corpse lying flat on the ground covered with a white cloth, slowly crouched down, and then lifted the white cloth that was tightly covered with the corpse.

She was numb to corpses, she used to kill countless people every year on a mission, killing people was no different from killing an animal, the moment each corpse fell to the ground, she would not even look at it, it felt that it was meaningless.

At this time, the person who spoke to you with a gentle smile suddenly became like this, and the memory of the shadow was as uncomfortable as a drop of blood.

She didn't know that she would have such a sad time in the face of a corpse, she didn't cry or make a fuss, she just quietly looked at the people on the ground.

Everyone was watching her every move, and there were a few young ladies in the room in the distance who didn't know who they were, and they didn't dare to look at this scene and turned around.

Yiying looked at the already cold and deformed face in front of her, took out the handkerchief on her body and wiped it, this face used to be clean, she hoped that she would be clean when she left.

After half a pillar of incense, she stood up from the corpse, looked at the housekeeper in front of her and said, "Uncle Fu, report to the official!"

The official family was stunned when he heard this, and then he lowered his eyebrows and said, "Miss, don't worry about this matter, go back and take care of yourself!"

As soon as Yiying heard this person speak, he avoided the important and trivialized, and the meaning in his obedience must not be that he wanted to report to the official.

said expressionlessly: "Uncle Lao Fu doesn't have to worry about this, if you don't want to go, I'll go with my maid."

If I don't move you, I'll do it myself, that's what Memories thinks.

How could the housekeeper Xia Fu let this young lady go to the official, who dared to report to the official if the lord didn't speak, besides, if this matter is going to be spread out to the prime minister's house, it will become a topic of conversation for the people after dinner, in case it is not good that the master is impeached by the imperial history platform, saying that he has mutilated people's lives, then it will be suffered.

He didn't know what was wrong with this young lady, she was usually very talkative, but how she started her temper today, and said in that kind words:

"Miss, go back! This matter is handled by the eldest master."

Yiying was angry when he heard this, "This is my mother, and my father will deal with it, how can I trouble my uncle!" Does Steward Fu feel that it is not the person who dies in the big house, and it has nothing to do with you? So I want to rush things."

The housekeeper was shocked, he couldn't bear this crime, and hurriedly laughed with a smile: "Miss Li's words there, there are any big houses and two rooms in this family, all surnamed Xia, and the old slave is doing things for the Xia family, and he doesn't belong to that room."

"Okay, you go and report to the official now, I'll wait here"

Yiying thought that if she wanted to report to the official in person, it would definitely affect the reputation of her father and brother, so after thinking about it, it was better to force Steward Xia to report to the official.

Steward Xia didn't dare to go if he didn't say anything, but looking at the situation at this time, he couldn't help the young lady in front of him, and his eyes rolled a few times and said: "Then the young lady is waiting here, and the old slave will order someone to go."

Regardless of whether this person is real or fake, she has to say that her point of view is to report to the official, even if the uncle comes, she will insist on this point of view.

Watching everyone walk away in twos and threes, Yiying came to the mother again, looking at the pale and beautiful eyebrows, her eyes quickly gushed out a stream of heat, she burst into tears, if you count the last time she cried, she can't remember when she last cried, she can't imagine that she can still feel herself crying in her lifetime, feel that she still has feelings, she doesn't know whether she is happy or sad in her heart.

"From today on, I will be Xia Li, the real Xia Li, I will live well in this world on her behalf, keep my father and brother, you can rest assured to accompany your daughter, goodbye mother"

She whispered to the corpse lying on the ground, and then quickly picked up the white silk on the side to cover the face of the person in front of her.

The deceased is gone, all the people who hurt her, those who hurt Xia Li, she will avenge them, she swears.

After half a pillar of incense, she heard footsteps behind her, and it seemed that there must have been a lot of people coming.

Chu Han has been crying by her side, as if she wants to cry out the tears of her former master.

At this time, "Xia Li" did not dissuade him, cry! Let's cry out loud! She has a thousand pathos in her heart, but she doesn't cry as unscrupulously as the people in front of her.

"Li'er, take a look at your mother when you're injured!" Xia Li didn't have to look back to know who the name was? It's Li Honglian.

I was a little uncalm in my heart, but when I thought about it again, this person had already been sealed in his memory and became a thing of the past.

She turned her head and glanced at the men and women who came over, and said to Li Honglian's gaze: "I can't let my mother die in vain, I want to report to the official."

Li Honglian somehow felt that the person in front of her was not like Xia Li, but she couldn't say that it was caused by the stimulation of her mother's incident, so she said gently: "Li'er is obedient, go back first!" It's good to leave this matter to the eldest aunt to deal with for you."

"No, I'm going to report to the official, my mother won't leave me alone, someone must have hurt her and pushed her into the river."

Li Hong even jumped with her eyebrows, but it was just a matter of a moment, and she immediately coaxed the people in front of her:

"Okay, the eldest aunt will definitely help you check, but now that you are injured, how can it be better if you continue to toss like this, you still have to go to the kneeling hall in a while, Li'er is obedient, go back first, how about the aunt will give you a satisfactory answer?"

Xia Li sneered in her heart, this eldest aunt is really good at coaxing people, if she is obedient to her mother's affairs, she will not know, if she is disobedient, she will definitely be said that she doesn't know what to do, and now she is not right.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Auntie, my mother is dead now, and she can no longer accompany me from now on."

"It's the eldest aunt who knows, can the eldest aunt accompany you in the future?"

Li Honglian's brows furrowed, she didn't know when Xia Li's child became so difficult.

"So I want to get revenge on her"

"The eldest aunt promises you that if your mother is mutilated, she will be avenged."

"No, I'm going to avenge her with my own hands, and my aunt will report to the official! I want to see who the killer is?"

Li Honglian was depressed for a while, and she said in vain what she had been saying for so long, when did this child become soft and hard!

Xia Li continued: "Auntie, no one present has ever had such a thing, so no one can understand my feelings, and my sad mood is nothing more than that, so this official must be reported, and I want to watch it here in person."

"And Chu Han, go and send someone to find my brother back, there is such a big thing in the family, he should come back"

"Yes, miss," Chu Han cried and was about to go, and just after running a few steps, someone shouted "stop"

Xia Li turned around and looked over, and saw a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform, medium height, not very good-looking but elegant, saying that he was not good-looking because this person had a square face, the bridge of his nose was slightly collapsed, and only a pair of eyes were still bright, this was not someone else, but Xia Zhiyuan, the uncle of the original owner, who was the prime minister of the dynasty.

"Master, why did you come back so soon?"

Li Honglian hurriedly stepped forward.

"Can I not come back when something so big happens at home? Tired of you."

"That is, alas! It's just that I pity my brother and sister......"

Xia Li didn't want to listen to the couple's love words, nor did he want to listen to their pale chills, so he said loudly:

"Uncle, please call the shots for my mother!" This one also looks a little like he can't call the shots, but at this time he has to say so.

Xia Zhiyuan came close and touched Xia Li's head, "Li'er is suffering, you are still injured, go back!" Leave everything to the uncle."

He and his wife have a set of words.

"No, uncle, I want the government to find out the cause of my mother's death"

"The eldest uncle has his own decision, and the early cold will help your young lady go back" Xia Zhiyuan actually came to the attitude.

Xia Li quickly took a step back and said: "No, I won't go back, this is my mother, I want to report to the official, I want the government to find out about the matter."

Now that the entire Xia family doesn't have the right to speak, if anyone dares to stop her, she will speak out.

Xia Zhiyuan didn't expect that his words would be bad, and this girl wanted to report to the official.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Well, since you have to report to the official, the uncle will fulfill you, Ah Fu, you go and get my name."

Xia Li wanted to report to the official directly to investigate the case, but he didn't expect that this uncle would ask someone else to take her name sticker to report to the official, so who would dare to investigate the case, it would be good if he didn't come to sabotage.

After thinking about it, he called the housekeeper again, "Forget it!" Butler Fu, you don't have to report to the official, everything will be handled by the uncle."

Everyone was dumbfounded after hearing this, why did this Miss Li change her mind again!
