Chapter 7

As he was talking, there was a sudden sharp exclamation outside, and a sharp voice shouted: "Okay, you lowly slaves, dare you steal and die?" ”

Lin Xi frowned, and was about to go out, but Ju Xiang grabbed him and whispered: "Go from behind, don't let people see you here, the fourth young master will kill you." ”

"I ......"

"Let's go!"

There was even a back door in such a humble room, and after pushing Lin Xi out of the door, Ju Xiang grabbed Chu Qiao's arm and said in a deep voice, "Don't come out if anything happens." Then he hurried out.

The screams and whips suddenly sounded, and the fat-bellied woman threw off her arms and shouted viciously, "Aren't these the daughters of the Jing family back then? How could it have fallen to the point where it is today? Your sisters are bitches in the flower shop, and you are thieves here, what a nest of sluts! ”

"Aunt Song, we know that we are wrong, we don't dare anymore." Ju Xiang stood in front of the other children, her face was whipped a few times, and she was covered in blood, she knelt and grabbed the corner of the woman's skirt, and begged loudly for mercy, "We don't dare anymore." ”

"Wrongdoing? I don't think you guys have a long memory! ”

One whip after another fell on the children, and Xiao Qiben, who was combing his two braids, was injured, and after a few whips, his eyes turned white and fainted. The children burst into tears, but the woman grew more and more energetic, shouted, and raised her whip high again.

There was a smack, but no violent screams came. Aunt Song looked down and saw a little girl in tattered clothes standing in front of her, thin and small, but her eyes were very cold, a pair of pitch-black hands tightly grasped her whip, and said in a gloomy voice: "You are enough." ”

Aunt Song was furious, "Dead girl, are you looking for death?" ”

"Yue'er, let go of Yue'er!" Ju Xiang knelt and climbed forward, desperately pulling the corners of Chu Qiao's clothes, crying and shouting loudly, "Hurry up and compensate Aunt Song!" ”

Chu Qiao was unmoved, just looked at the woman coldly, and said in a cold voice: "You can beat them again." ”

Aunt Song raised her eyes and shouted: "I don't beat them, I'll beat you!" With that, he picked up the whip and whipped it hard. Chu Qiao sneered, grabbed the woman's belt, and tripped under his feet, and the woman's fat and huge body fell heavily to the ground!

The call to kill a pig suddenly sounded, and Chu Qiao slowly walked up to the woman, bent over and said with a sneer: "Why don't you go and sue quickly?" ”

Aunt Song jumped up and shouted, "You wait for me!" He turned around and rushed out of the yard.

Ju Xiang ran forward worriedly, so anxious that tears were about to flow out, "Yue'er, you have caused a big disaster, what should I do?" ”

"You look at them." Chu Qiao explained, turned around and followed the woman out.

When she first came, she had already memorized the road, and when she turned two corridors, she saw the woman running hastily on the stone bridge. She was obese, and she had only run such a distance before she gasped.

Chu Qiao squatted in the grass, looked left and right, and after making sure that it was safe, he picked up a stone, half-squinted his eyes, and threw it at the woman's ankle at a rapid pace.

With a snap, the stone hit Aunt Song's ankle heavily, and the woman exclaimed, her foot slipped, and she immediately fell off the bridge.

It was already the middle of winter, and there was a thick layer of ice on the surface of the lake, and she didn't smash the ice after she fell, but just lay there on all fours, crying "ouch, ouch, ouch".

Chu Qiao stood up from the grass, slowly walked up to the stone bridge, looked at her condescendingly, and shouted, "Hey, do you need me to call someone for you?" ”

The woman turned around and immediately said kindly, "Good boy, go and help the eldest lady call someone, ouch, it hurts me to death." ”

Chu Qiao smiled, her smile was bright, she bent down, picked up a huge stone, and lifted it above her head with great effort.

When the woman saw this, she was shocked and cried out, "You, what are you doing?" ”

No longer allowing her to make a big noise, Chu Qiao gently let go of his hand, and the stone slammed on the ice, and the ice surface suddenly shattered. The woman exclaimed, and was completely covered by the cold water, and after only a few bubbles, it sank.

Chu Qiao stood on the stone bridge, his face was calm, his eyes were peaceful, and his expression could not see a trace of fluctuation.

This is a cannibalistic world, and if you want to live, you can only take the lead in swallowing the man-eating beast.

Without the slightest nostalgia, she turned and walked back. As soon as they stepped into the courtyard, the children rushed up in unison, all of them wounded and teary-eyed. Chu Qiao stretched out his hand to hug Xiao Qi, who had just woken up at the front, took a deep breath, and said in a low voice, "Don't be afraid, it's okay." ”

In the lowest-level slave yard of Zhuge Mansion, a group of little female slaves living like pigs and dogs couldn't help crying bitterly.

At dinner, the children of the Jing family were called out to do things by the grandmother in charge, even the injured Xiao Qi and Ju Xiang also went together. Chu Qiao and Xiao Ba, who had been asleep with a broken waist, stayed in the house, and the children did not come back tired until late at night. After eating, the children sensibly climbed into bed and went to bed, and Juxiang squatted on the ground to add firewood to the fire, and the scars on his face were red and swollen, as hideous as small snakes.

The room was quiet, and the sound of the children breathing after falling asleep was gradually heard. Chu Qiao wore the clothes that Ju Xiang had just given her, got up, and said softly, "If you don't treat your face again, it will leave a scar." ”

The fire of the kang cave shone on Ju Xiang's face, a small face was thinned, and her eyes became more and more dark and big, she raised her head and said: "Yue'er, slaves are not allowed to use medicine, last time Xiao Qi secretly used the medicine that Lin Xi took, we don't know how much risk we took, if it is found out, the big guy will die." My wound is on my face, but I can't mess around. ”

As they were talking, there was a sudden noise on the kang, and the two turned their heads and found that it was Xiao Qi who had kicked the quilt while sleeping. Ju Xiang hurriedly ran forward, covered Xiao Qi, then wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to return to the kang cave to light the fire.

Chu Qiao looked at Juice Xiang, his lips moved, but he didn't say anything in the end. This child is only about ten years old, but he has such a heavy burden on his shoulders. The oldest child in this room is only ten years old, and the youngest is only five or six years old.

"Sister Ju Xiang," Chu Qiao got off the kang, sat next to Ju Xiang, and said softly, "Have you ever been to Jiangnan?" ”

"Jiangnan?" Ju Xiang frowned and turned his head, "What is Jiangnan?" ”

"Then do you know Huangshan? Or, do you know where the Yangtze River is? ”

Ju Xiang shook his head and said: "I know that the west of Hongchuan is Red Mountain, and there is a Cangli River under Red Mountain, Yue'er, why do you ask this?" ”

Chu Qiao looked a little stunned, thought for a long time, shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'll ask casually, by the way, Sister Ju Xiang, what is the name of the current emperor, do you know?" ”

"The emperor is the emperor, how can we call the emperor's name. But I know that the black-clothed prince who often comes to our mansion is the seventh son of the emperor, named Zhao Che, and he is the youngest prince of our Great Xia. ”

A grim and mocking face suddenly flashed into her mind, Chu Qiao narrowed his eyes slightly, and repeated: "Zhao Che? ”

"Yue'er, what's wrong with you? It's weird that you came back this time, what did you say to Aunt Song, how could she let us go like this? ”

Chu Qiao turned his head, smiled faintly, and said, "I'm nothing, don't worry." That Aunt Song didn't let us go, but fell into the ice lake and drowned, I watched her die with my own eyes, so don't tell anyone about Aunt Song's visit to us. ”

"Dead?" Ju Xiang was shocked and immediately shouted loudly.

Chu Qiao covered her mouth, glanced left and right, and saw that the children of the Jing family had not woken up, and said in a deep voice: "God knows this matter, you know and I know, don't talk about it anymore, she has a vicious heart, she is innocent of death, and if she dies, she will die, so don't pay attention to it." ”

"Moon...... Yue'er," Ju Xiang said tremblingly, "No...... You didn't kill her, did you? She fell into the lake herself, right? She...... Her son is the consul of the former garden, and we can't afford to mess with her. ”

Chu Qiao smiled, pointed to his chest, and said, "Do you think I can kill her?" Okay, don't think about it too much, she has done all the bad things, even if no one kills her, God will take action, you are tired for a day, have a good rest. ”

Ju Xiang hurriedly shook his head, "No, I still have to burn the fire." ”

"It's good for me to come, I'm injured, you can be lazy tomorrow, you can go quickly."

Chu Qiao sat quietly on the small bench and added a piece of firewood to the kang hole from time to time. The firewood crackled and burned, shaking her face red. She raised her head and glanced at the children in the room, and her heart suddenly felt a little sour. It's a pity, what can she do? She came to this unknown dynasty inexplicably, and she was still trapped in Jing Yue'er's small body, her skills and martial arts were all lost, and she was such a low identity, she was still too busy to take care of herself, how could she save others? Everything she did today should be regarded as a return to the kindness of delivering food for three days, and then, she must leave immediately.

Chu Qiao slowly closed her eyes, to be a person and do things, she must do what she can, and now she does not have the strength to carry such a big burden.

As the rooster dawned and the sky grew brighter, the children of the Jing family got up on time, put on the clothes of the servants, and began to prepare for the day's work. Chu Qiao watched them leave with a smile on his face, a little sad.

Taking out the food he had just stolen, Chu Qiao took a deep look at Xiao Ba, who was still lying unconscious on the bed, and turned away resolutely.

Although the vigorous skills are gone, the sober mind remains. Although Chu Qiao is not a super agent of Operation No. 9, he is also a professionally trained national soldier. Although Zhuge Mansion occupies a large area and has a large number of people, it is still like an unguarded playground for a person who is short in stature and less than eight years old, but has a strong logical analysis ability and a keen sense of space.

Within half an hour, she quietly walked out of the inner courtyard of the miscellaneous servants and came to the front garden. The security here is relatively tight, and Fuchu Nursing Homes with knives can be seen everywhere. The Zhuge family is different from ordinary families, and it can be seen just by looking at Zhuge Huai's ability to call Zhao Che, Zhao Jue and other royal children brothers.

Chu Qiao straightened her back, her small body was like a small tree, she straightened her clothes, and walked forward with her chest up.

"Stop! Looking for death? This is a place where you can just walk around? ”

A tall nurse suddenly stepped forward, with a face full of flesh and an obese body. Chu Qiao stopped, raised his head, a little face was white and cute, Qiushui's eyes were black and white, his voice was sweet, and he said in a milky voice: "This eldest brother, I was ordered to go to the old lady's outer house, and the messenger said that if it is less than an hour, he will ask for my head." ”
