Chapter 39: Redemption and Escape

Gentle this will feel a little dizzy, just now immersed in the grief of Sister-in-law Liu was arrested and sent to the official, this will suddenly hear Su Shi say that she can redeem herself and go out, the contrast between this sadness and joy is too great, so that she was stunned on the spot, and only when she saw Li Shi slap her fiercely and walked away with two personal maids, she came back from the sadness and joy. After thinking about it carefully, I realized that I was actually extremely lucky to be allowed to redeem myself by the Su family, if it weren't for the fact that the Li family used the matter of Xiaohuan to suppress the Su family, and the Su family used herself to fight and rebelled against the Li army, I am afraid that it would be very difficult for her to successfully redeem herself and leave the house.

"Let's go, go back." Zhao Yan saw that the Su family and the Li family were fighting, and they all walked away, and her father was recuperating again, so she didn't want to disturb her, so she had to walk towards her yard, and said to Wen Wen as she walked: "Why did you suddenly say that you want to redeem yourself?" I've never heard you mention it before. ”

Gentle raised her eyes slightly, and saw Yaqin and Shulan looking at her with jealousy in their eyes that couldn't be concealed, and didn't want to cause trouble at such a critical moment, so she only lowered her head and said softly: "My mother only mentioned this matter to me yesterday, I wanted to go back to the girl, but I didn't know how much money I had to take to redeem myself, and I didn't tell the girl before I skimmed it, but I didn't expect Mrs. today to be gracious and allowed me to redeem myself at the original price......"

"It's okay to go out, marry someone who does your duty, and live a good life." Zhao Yan suddenly said such a sentence with great emotion, which made Wen Rou slightly stunned, and he didn't know how to answer. Seriously calculated, Zhao Yan is only fourteen or fifteen years old at the moment, and he seems to be a little precocious, but living in such a complex environment as Zhao Mansion, and seeing the intrigue between his mother and his father's concubine all day long, I am afraid that he has already felt tired.

"It's a pity." Zhao Yan muttered again.

"What is the pity of the girl?" Shulan couldn't help but interject and asked.

Zhao Yan smiled slightly: "Ruhua's cooking skills are good, she came a few days ago, I feel that my appetite is much better, and I have seen meat on my face, she is gone, I have to eat things made in the big kitchen all day long, naturally I feel a pity." ”

Yaqin pouted unconvinced when she heard this: "Her two hands, I have watched them for the past few days, and I have learned some of them, so I will do them for the girl next time." ”

"You?" Zhao Yan smiled in surprise: "It is naturally a good means for you to embroider a flower with a needle, if you want to say cooking, I'm afraid it's not as good as Shulan!" As she spoke, she regretted again: "Speaking of which, Sister-in-law Liu's cooking skills are also good, but I didn't expect her to ......."

Hearing Zhao Yan's words related to the master's family, the three maids all stopped talking, Zhao Yan also felt that her father was too lustful, and even a young maid like Xiaohuan was caught by him, and it was really not a unit, but she couldn't say such a disrespectful word, she only thought about it in her heart, and felt a little unfilial, so she hurriedly skimmed off this matter, turned her head to Shulan and said: "Go back and take two taels of silver to reward Ruhua, and she will serve me." ”

Wen Rou didn't expect Zhao Yan to reward her, so she hurriedly thanked her, but she was a little surprised in her heart, she always thought that Zhao Yan didn't like her very much, although she always looked very peaceful when facing her, she rarely smiled, and she didn't mean to treat her very seriously.

When Zhao Yan was sent back to the courtyard, she gently accepted Shulan and handed her the silver, but when she parted, she had to kowtow to Zhao Yan to take advantage of the kindness of the master and servant in these days. Kowtow may be a common thing for the ancients, but it is very difficult for gentleness, she hesitated for a while, then gritted her teeth and knelt down, comforting herself in her heart: follow the customs, follow the customs......

After resigning Zhao Yan, Wen Wen hurried to the West Corner Gate, Ruhua's mother had been waiting there for a long time, and thought that something had happened to Wen Rou, so she was so anxious that she was restless, and when she saw her enter the door, she immediately asked: "But what happened in this house?" The housekeepers still don't let me enter the house......"

Gentle and anxious Xiaohuan, how could she be in the mood to listen to her, so she hurriedly pulled her up and said: "Madame allowed me to redeem myself at the original price, you go with me to see Madame." ”

Mrs. Cai heard it on the side, congratulated her repeatedly, coped with it gently and patiently for a while, and stuffed fifty copper coins to invite Mrs. Cai to drink tea, and after saying goodbye to her, she took her mother-in-law to see Li. On the way, she secretly took six taels of silver from her sister-in-law and let her mother carry it, so that she could redeem her body for a while. The two hurriedly arrived outside the West House where the Li family lived, and when the people reported it, she carefully instructed the woman to give her a good answer and not to panic.

Li was unwilling, and really made it difficult, first asked Wen Rou why she wanted to redeem herself, and then asked her how her family suddenly had money to redeem her body, fortunately, these words Wen Rou had already thought it through, and Ruhua's mother answered according to the agreed rhetoric, 1510, Li Shi still had to ask again, then Jin Yu suddenly walked in from outside the house, and said to her in a panic: "Madam, I searched all over the house, and I didn't find Xiaohuan." ”

"How could I not find it?" Li Shi was surprised: "Xu is afraid when she saw that something happened to her mother, she was hiding in a bad place, send more people, and then look for it!" ”

Jin Yu agreed to go out, but her gentle heart was bright, knowing that Xiaohuan had already escaped from the house, even if the Li family dug three feet into the ground, she couldn't find it, so she lowered her head unconsciously, for fear that the Li family would see some flaws in her face.

Li Shi is not in the mood to make things difficult and gentle at the moment, her slender nails tapped the teacup in her hand, wondering where Xiaohuan would hide, she had to find Xiaohuan before Su Shi told the master about Sister-in-law Liu, and forced her to confess that she conspired with Sister-in-law Liu to poison her, firstly, in order to oppose Su's family, secondly, to cut the grass to eradicate the roots, Sister-in-law Liu is a ruthless person, her daughter must not be much better, keeping such a little sassy fox is a scourge after all!

Wen Wen stood underground for a long time, seeing that Li Shi was only thinking silently, knowing that what she was turning in her heart was definitely not a good idea, she became more and more anxious to go out of the house to find Xiaohuan, but she couldn't urge Li to return to her senses, so she had to continue to stand patiently, and finally waited until Li found that there were still two people in this room, and said with a twist of her eyebrows: "What are you still standing here for?" Jinxiu, you took them to the tent and paid the money, remember to come back quickly, I still have something to call you. ”

Li Shi now thinks of Su Shi when he sees gentleness, and his mood is very bad, but Su Shi has promised to redeem herself gently, no matter how difficult she is, it is useless for her to make things difficult, it is better to quickly let her out of her eyes and be quiet!

Gentle and long, when he kowtowed to the Li family, he only worshiped the dead, cursed her in his heart, turned over, took the flower mother to the account room to pay the silver, completed the trivial procedures for redemption, retrieved the deed of sale and went to Su's room to thank her, who knew that after a while, he swept out and said: "Mrs. is tired, say forgive, let you live." ”

Kowtow less, it was too late to be gentle and happy, but for Su's family, she was still grateful, lowered her head and said a few auspicious words outside the door wishing Su's good health, and then pulled Ruhua's mother to go outside the house.

Walking to the side door, Ruhua's mother was about to step out when she saw Wen Wen, but she unconsciously dragged her and said, "Your things haven't been packed yet!" ”

"Something? What is it? Gentle and funny: "It's just two clothes, a bedding, what is there to pack?" I don't want to take any of the things out of this house! If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't take off her clothes, she wouldn't even want to wear this green coat that represented the identity of the maid!
